Chapter 1420 Jealous

Since he was a child, Tian Dong had been eating out of Zhai Hua’s hands. He also could not stir up any huge waves when facing Zhai Sheng, this younger brother.

In fact, how would the young Tian Dong, who was a child then, know what was romantic love? When Zhai Hua first bullied him, he disliked her. In fact, he detested Zhai Hua who behaved like a female tyrant!

Hence, Tian Dong thought of a way to trick Zhai Hua and avenge himself.

Never did he expect that Zhai Hua did not fall for his trap. Under Zhai Sheng’s plotting. he fell into the pit that he had dug himself. Each time Tian Dong wanted to scheme against Zhai Hua, Zhai Sheng would quietly teach Tian Dong a lesson on behalf of her. As it happened more often, the little Tian Dong vaguely understood that he could not seem to win this younger brother of his.

As long as he bullied Zhai Hua, Zhai Sheng would make him suffer. If he were to play with Zhai Hua more often, Zhai Sheng would take good care of him.

Tian Dong seemed to be cut out for doing business since he was a child. Without the need to ascertain, Tian Dong immediately opted for the bright and easy path by pledging loyalty to Zhai Hua, this ‘female boss’. He would be protected by Zhai Sheng, this ‘dark knight’, then. As such, no matter the circumstances, Tian Dong would be able to lead a good life within the group of kids.

This had increased the opportunities for Tian Dong and Zhai Hua to interact with each other. Gradually, Tian Dong discovered Zhai Hua’s good points. In addition, after Zhai Hua joked that she would marry him, Tian Dong’s annoyance at Zhai Hua had transformed into vague positive feelings for her after some time.

Tian Dong had left the country at a young age and stayed abroad for more than twenty years. He did not expect himself to remember what happened during his childhood too. His love for Zhai Hua did not reduce because of time and distance. Instead, it grew deeper.

From a certain perspective, Zhai Sheng was considered the matchmaker between Tian Dong and Zhai Hua.

Of course, Tian Dong was more particular about the fact that he could not win his brother-in-law Zhai Sheng since he was a child. Now that they had already grown up, Zhai Sheng still held onto his dark past. He was not sure whether it was because Zhai Sheng matured faster than other people, despite the fact that everyone grew up together; he was even a little older than Zhai Sheng.

The problem was… he could not remember any jokes and embarrassing moments of Zhai Sheng. These were non-existent in his memory. When Zhai Sheng was at the age slightly older than the triplet’s current age, he was already very smart. Tian Dong was clearly the big boss of a huge corporation. Yet, he could only surrender when facing his brother-in-law Zhai Sheng, as per the current situation.

In order to safeguard his image in Xiao Bao’s heart, Tian Dong not only accepted the threat but also did it willingly. “Be rest assured. Qiao Nan’s mission this time is not difficult. Minister He just wanted to gradually pass the connections in his hands to Qiao Nan. That’s why he insisted to bring her along. At the same time, Qiao Nan will have the chance to gain more experience. He doesn’t have much time left to guide Qiao Nan. Whenever there is a chance, he will definitely hold onto it. Don’t worry. Qiao Nan will be able to come back in a few days’ time. Right, you will still be at home and not the camp, right?’

Tian Dong had really touched the soft spots.

Initially, Zhai Sheng was troubled that he was seldom home, yet Qiao Nan was away. When Qiao Nan came back from her business trip, the tragedy was that his leave would have ended. He had to leave before he could even hug his wife.

Looking at Zhai Sheng’s expression, Tian Dong’s heart trembled a little. He instantly did the action of zipping up his mouth to express that he would shut up, lest he provoke Zhai Sheng and would not be able to make up for it.

Xiao Bao insisted to stay at his maternal grandmother’s house that had his auntie’s smell and refused to leave. However, Tian Dong could not do the same. Zhai Hua was seldom at home. When he was not entertaining his clients, Tian Dong had to keep his parents company on behalf of his wife, lest the two elders feel lonely.

In particular, he had sent their favorite grandson away today. If their son was not coming back, the two elders at home might feel very disappointed.

Although their son was not as likable as their grandson, it was better than nothing. True enough, when they saw their son coming back without their grandson following behind, there was a slight disappointment in Mother Tian’s eyes. The positive thing was that she had already expected this outcome as this was not the first incidence. Hence, Mother Tian calmed down very quickly. “When is Xiao Bao coming back?” Her grandson was away and she felt strange and upset all over.

“Tomorrow afternoon, I will go to the Zhai family’s residence after work to fetch Xiao Bao home.” This was already the usual routine. However, Mother Tian had always harbored twenty percent hope that in the absence of her company, Xiao Bao would cry, kick up a fuss, and request to go home.

Although she was disappointed every time, Mother Tian could not help having such hopes repeatedly.

As soon as she heard that she could only see Xiao Bao tomorrow, Mother Tian snorted uneasily. She was not willing to bother about Tian Dong, this son, anymore. “Tell me. What’s so good about the Zhai family? Why is it that Xiao Bao likes to go there and play?” Forget it that her son had been snatched away by Zhai Hua. Their family had a daughter-in-law but it was no different from not having any. Her grandson, who was her only source of happiness, loved to go to the Zhai family’s residence. Nothing went according to her wishes.

Tian Dong looked at and hinted at his father. Meaning, please fix all of his mother’s problems.

Father Tian smiled and nodded, expressing ‘no problem’.

Once he received the signal, Tian Dong smiled and gave his father a few words of consolation before going upstairs to bathe and sleep. Tian Dong had already taken his dinner at the Zhai family’s residence earlier.

When Father and Mother Tian were sleeping on the bed, Mother Tian could not help nagging again. “What’s wrong with our family? Is there a difference in whether Dongzi has a wife or not?”

“Of course there is.” Father Tian did not feel so resentful about his current life. “If Dongzi didn’t marry a wife, where would Xiao Bao come from? What is the matter? Our grandson is not at home today and you don’t like him anymore? If that is really the case, let Xiao Bao stay a few more days with the Zhai family. Please don’t feel upset then.” His wife loved Xiao Bao so much. Without Zhai Hua, where would Xiao Bao come from?

Their grandson resembled their son. He was just slightly over one year old but he had a sweeter tongue than his son when the latter was a child. At the thought of his grandson’s witty demeanor, Father Tian was sure that his grandson would be more promising than his son after he grew up.

Zhai Hua had given birth to such a good grandson for their family. He felt that Zhai Hua was a good daughter-in-law.

“Would Zhai Hua be able to give birth to Xiao Bao without our Dongzi? Furthermore, wouldn’t Dongzi have a child after marrying someone regardless?” Mother Tian felt indignant.

“Without Zhai Hua, even if Dongzi has a child, it may not definitely be Xiao Bao. Can you bear with the fact that Xiao Bao is not your grandson? Also, don’t say that Dongzi would get married if there was no Zhai Hua. How long did Dongzi endure for Zhai Hua before he was willing to get married?”
