Chapter 1418 Discussion

Deng Wenchang’s tone was not good. It even carried a tinge of threat. Even if he were to tear his mouth by brownnosing Qiao Nan, Qiao Nan would not put in any good words for Deng Wenchang in front of He Yi. She would not pass the opportunity to Deng Wenchang even if she was not going for the business trip. “These are my final words. Deng Wenchang, based on our relationship, your earlier words are too amusing. I am telling you that this is the funniest joke that I have ever heard this year.”

Look for your own enemy and request for his help to give you a chance.

Hahaha!

Deng Wenchang did not know what was good for him. He persistently took her for a moron and even stood in her way. Qiao Nan warned Deng Wenchang. “We are in the department now. Tell me. If I shout, will anyone come forward to help me beat you up?”

Qiao Nan had full confidence when she said this.

In stark contrast with Deng Wenchang’s rock-bottom popularity in the department, everyone in the office treated Qiao Nan like a junior of their own family. Be it sincere or not, at the very least, no one gave Qiao Nan cold shoulders.

If Qiao Nan were to give a shout, most likely, the number of people who ran out could crush Deng Wenchang to death. They did not even need to beat him up.

After hearing Qiao Nan’s words, Deng Wenchang’s expression changed. He retreated by three steps and maintained a safe distance from Qiao Nan, lest others misunderstand that he wanted to harm Qiao Nan.

Qiao Nan’s smile turned more genuine. “You should have done this earlier. Isn’t this better? It’s your fault that I will be home five minutes late.” Having said that, Qiao Nan walked into the lift which had coincidentally opened earlier and pressed the lift button. As soon as she left the office building, she got into her family’s private car and rushed home in a fast and safe speed.

Deng Wenchang punched the wall in anger. Certainly, the woman that Zhai Sheng fancied was not as simple and naive as a fresh graduate. It was not so easy to appease and cajole her. After interacting with Qiao Nan for some time, he realized that Qiao Nan did not have the amateurism of a college student. Instead, she was as slippery as a wily old fox. Although she was very quiet and low-key, she had never shortchanged herself in certain aspects.

This made Deng Wenchang, who had studied abroad and encountered many of such obstacles before, feel even more dissatisfied and furious.

As soon as Qiao Nan got into the car, she cast away all thoughts about Deng Wenchang. She only had one thing in her mind now: how to convince the three treasures in her family and make them agree to let her go on an overseas work trip for a few days. As soon as she completed her work, she would definitely return to the country and to her three children’s side as soon as possible.

Although the existence of the triplets seemed to have gradually become a chain that shackled Qiao Nan, she had never regretted marrying Zhai Sheng upon reaching the legal age of marriage, becoming pregnant quickly, and giving birth to the triplets.

These three children might be burdens but they were sweet ones, something that she could not forsake. She was willing to bear these burdens. She believed that she could have a good discussion with her children and squeeze out some time for her work.

Although it was a little difficult to achieve such an outcome.

True enough, as soon as they heard that their most beloved mother would be away from home for a few days and was not even coming back at night, all the smiles on the triplets’ chubby faces instantly disappeared. Their watery eyes were filled with reluctance. They pouted and asked, “Mom, can you not go?”

“Mom, I will miss you.” Er Bao stretched out his little hands and wrapped them around Qiao Nan’s neck. He used his action to express his longing for Qiao Nan if she were to leave

On the other hand, Da Bao said unexpectedly, “Give me a reason.” That expression and tone of his was the epitome of Zhai Sheng!

“Okay.” After pulling the triplets to her side, she tried hard to wrap her arms around all of them. “My three babies, let’s not talk about others. You still remember your dad, don’t you?”

The triplets nodded furiously. Their father was a great hero. He was a soldier of the people’s liberation army. He carried guns and protected the safety of the country and all its citizens. Great-grandfather, grandfather, grandmother, and mother told them the same thing.

They had heard this many times. Also, the triplets were getting more sensible as they grew up. Even if they did not see their biological father for more than a month in a year, they had strong memories of their father. Whenever they heard the word ‘dad’, their eyes shone brightly.

“Da Bao, Er Bao, didn’t the two of you often say that you want to become a soldier of the people’s liberation army like your dad after you grow up? Once you become a soldier, you will spend less time at home. This is because that will become your career and your mission. When that time comes, although Mom will miss you, like how I miss your dad, Mom will support you no matter how reluctant I am. This is because that is something that you want to do.”

Zhai Sheng’s example was too prominent. As soon as Qiao Nan said this, immediately, the triplets vaguely understood what their mother’s words meant.

Da Bao pouted his lips, looking aggrieved. “Will you also come back after a long time like Dad?” Their mother was going to become a heroine. Would the time that she could spend with them become as little as in their dad’s case?

At that moment, Da Bao felt very empty at heart. He felt that he and his siblings were going to become children without any parents to love and care for them. It was so sorrowful.

Er Bao and San Bao were more obvious in expressing themselves. They held onto Qiao Nan tightly, deeply fearful that Qiao Nan would leave them like their father. Without a word, he was already not at home the next when they opened their eyes.

Qiao Nan forced a smile. “Of course not. How could Mom bear to be away from you for so long? Mom can’t bear to do so.” There were only kids who left their parents, and not parents leaving their kids. “Mom will only be away for just a few days. Mom taught you about this calendar before, right? After every night, each wakes up in the morning from your sleep, and you can write a cross below this number. At most, after ten crosses, Mom will definitely come back. If it is possible, Mom will try my best to come back earlier.”

“At most ten crosses?” When Da Bao, who almost fell into bitter despair, heard that his mother would be back after ten crosses, his mood rose to the sky like a kite. His mother wouldn’t be away for as long as his father would, which was so long that he could not even recall how his father looked like anymore. The pitch of his baby voice rose again.

Ten days were not considered short, but in comparison to his father who was often not at home, Da Bao could accept his mother being away from home for ten days.

“Right, ten crosses at most!” Qiao Nan nodded furiously, deeply afraid that her children would not believe her.

After thinking, Da Bao finally nodded. “Okay, ten crosses at most!”

After settling Da Bao, Qiao Nan looked at Er Bao and San Bao,

They were triplets after all. Da Bao was the elder brother. Er Bao and San Bao were reluctant, but when they saw Da Bao nodding his head and approving, the two of them wrinkled their noses. They could only follow suit. “Mom, come back early. Will miss you.”
