Chapter 1506: I Raised Zhu Baoguo

“I can assure you that if the young lady that he likes was not you, he definitely would not have delayed this for so many years and even signed the papers with you. Even though it is true that he might have gotten engaged with you just to let Old Zhu leave peacefully, you should have a little confidence in yourself. Zhu Baoguo really likes you. Only you.”

“Then…” Shi Qing’s voice faltered. Unlike her typical straightforward way of speaking, she murmured something intelligible. It was so soft that Qiao Nan frowned, tilted, and leaned over to try to hear her. “What did you say?”

“Then…”

“…” Now that she had clearly heard what Shi Qing had to say, Qiao Nan was thoroughly speechless. “Just for this? My goodness. Don’t you know that there are responsible men in this world? They will never cross that line before it becomes official.”

Just because Shi Qing was willing to have a married life before marriage, she became suspicious that Zhu Baoguo disliked her because she had given her all, but Zhu Baoguo was not even moved. He refused to even touch a strand of her hair, and like a gentleman, he even used a blanket to cover the semi-exposed Shi Qing.

Upon hearing such a suspicion, the only thing that Qiao Nan could say was that Shi Qing had indeed only dated her first love, Zhu Baoguo. She had no knowledge of men. “I’m telling you that to men, there is no need for an emotional basis to do that thing in bed. Otherwise, will there even be prostitutes in this world?” Between the prostitute and her client, they would probably only have a second of eye contact. What kind of emotions would there be?

“But the problem is exactly that it doesn’t need an emotional basis. Zhu Baoguo didn’t even touch me. Doesn’t that prove that Zhu Baoguo doesn’t even feel what a normal man would feel when seeing a woman when he sees me?” Shi Qing’s pre-marriage fears and hesitance was rather serious. It had reached the stage that she was scaring herself.

“Do you want to test whether Zhu Baoguo is really being a gentleman, or whether he doesn’t have any feelings toward you?” Yes, based on the situation Shi Qing was in, Qiao Nan knew that no matter how much she tried to talk sense into Shi Qing or persuade her, it would just be wasting her efforts and time. If that was the case, she might as well let Shi Qing see for herself so that she could sleep well and be sure.

Shi Qing’s eyes twinkled. “How do we do that?” She knew that she had not made a mistake to find Qiao Nan at such a time.

Actually, Shi Qing had just mentioned this on the spur of the moment as a joke. They had been in discussions about marriage for a few years and had already been engaged for a year or two. But when she heard the soldiers in her troop discussing whether Shi Qing would suddenly be pregnant when she got married, Shi Qing became upset. How could she become pregnant? She was still a virgin.

Other than holding her hand and pecking her on the face, that fool Zhu Baoguo had never dared to do anything more. How could she get pregnant?

Shi Qing was not so naive to the point that she did not know how women became pregnant.

After making a little fuss, Shi Qing suddenly realized that even if she was willing to tell others, no one would believe that she was still a virgin after having been in a relationship for such a long time. Since no one would believe it, she might as well make it happen.

But who would have expected Zhu Baoguo to have such a response even after Shi Qing was willing to put down her pride to tease Zhu Baoguo.

It was rare for Shi Qing to make the first move. But not only had Zhu Baoguo not taken the bait, he had even wrapped Shi Qing up with the blanket. Following that, Shi Qing was infuriated. Thankfully, she was thinking rationally. Otherwise, on the day that they had gone to sign the papers, Shi Qing would have given up on Zhu Baoguo and refused to sign those papers.

But Zhu Baoguo seemed to have sensed that Shi Qing was upset. On the day that they signed the papers, Zhu Baoguo rushed to the Shi family’s house early in the morning and half-dragged Shi Qing into his car. That was how they managed to sign the papers.

If it was not for Zhu Baoguo’s tough attitude on that day, the stubborn Shi Qing might have stuck to her guns. Just based on Zhu Baoguo’s performance at that time, it was enough for Shi Qing, whose self-esteem as a woman had been hit hard, to say goodbye to him.

Seeing that Shi Qing was no longer as troubled as before, Qiao Nan let out a yawn. “Hand your phone over now and call Zhu Baoguo. Just say that you think getting married in February is too soon and that you haven’t made up your mind. Since the wedding invites haven’t been sent out yet, tell him that you want to delay it until May.”

“What’s the point of saying this?” Shi Qing was confused.

“Just do it.”

“Oh.” Shi Qing followed Qiao Nan’s instructions and called Zhu Baoguo. “Hello, you fool, it’s me. I want to discuss something with you. I think we’re rushing our wedding a little too much. I think the 1st of May is a good date too. Shall we change the date of our wedding?”

The mobile phone was not close to Qiao Nan and she was so sleepy that she narrowed her eyes, almost falling asleep. After roughly hearing what Shi Qing said, she heard a deep angry breath from the phone. When the other party was speaking, his voice was not only loud but also anxious. He was speeding through his words and was basically in a state of rage.

“Oh, oh… Okay.” Shi Qing’s face grew increasingly red. Not even a minute ago, she had just said that she wanted to postpone her wedding to the 1st of May. She had even been as fierce as a tiger when saying that. But in a blink of an eye, her reply was soft and gentle, as though she was tickling someone gently with a feather.

It was even more teasing than when Shi Qing had lifted up her skirt to show off her pale thighs before.

“Qiao Nan, Zhu Baoguo berated me and insisted that we have to get married in February. We can push it forward, but not back. So what’s the result of your test?” After Shi Qing hung up, her attitude softened. She was no longer uneasy and short-tempered.

Qiao Nan forced her eyes open. “Don’t you know what I’m testing? Are you kidding? Why don’t you continue to stay angry at Zhu Baoguo and continue doubting whether he truly likes you?”

“Qiao Nan…” Shi Qing pushed Qiao Nan angrily, yet coquettishly. “You know that I’m not good with these things. Don’t tease me anymore. Can’t you just be straightforward with what you want to say?”

Now that a tomboy was acting coquettish, Qiao Nan felt goose bumps all over.

Qiao Nan shivered. “Zhu Baoguo insisted that your wedding can only be pushed forward, but not backward. This means that he can’t wait to become your husband officially. Then, you two can do whatever you want. You know this subconsciously. That’s why you’re happy. Zhu Baoguo’s stubbornness about the timing of the wedding also proves that what I said earlier isn’t wrong. Zhu Baoguo hopes to have a married life with you after the wedding.”

Afraid that Shi Qing was still in confusion, Qiao Nan added. “Do you believe that even if you wrap yourself up like a dumpling on your wedding night, Zhu Baoguo will rip them all off?” Zhu Baoguo was a child that she had ‘raised’ herself.
