Chapter 940 Touched a Wall of Meat

In this world, the only one who dared to say things such as ‘letting Chief Zhai eat the leftovers from their meal’ was her mother-in-law.

Miao Miao was insistent. Qiao Nan had no choice but to do as she said.

Miao Jing knew how to prepare dishes too. However, everyone’s habits and mastery of cooking were different. Clearly, the ingredients and tools used were the same but the final taste would be different.

The strange thing was that the Zhai family liked Qiao Nan’s culinary style.

Normally, in such times, Miao Jing would not compete with Qiao Nan for the role of the head chef. Instead, she would abidingly become an assistant to Qiao Nan and help Qiao Nan with the washing, cutting, and so on.

Most likely, the only one in the whole world who could trouble the great wife of the chief to assist her was Qiao Nan.

The two of them had been bustling in the kitchen for a long time. Finally, one by one, they finished preparing the dishes that Miao Jing listed out.

“Nan Nan, you smell of oil and smoke. Why don’t you bathe first? The weather is so hot. You must have perspired much. You will feel more comfortable after a bath.” Miao Jing patted Qiao Nan’s shoulder and asked Qiao Nan to go and rest.

“That…” Qiao Nan looked embarrassed. Of course, she wished to bathe.

However, the capital was not Ping Cheng. After she came to the capital, Qiao Nan felt that the most inconvenient matter was to bathe. When she was in the small courtyard of the Zhai family, it was even more impossible for her to bathe.

Last time, to take care of Miao Jing, she had already stayed over at the place for one night.

However, she had been notified at the eleventh hour at that time. Hence, Qiao Nan came to the Zhai family without bringing anything. She had to have a change of clothes if she wanted to bathe. If she had to wear back the dirty clothes after bathing, she would feel weird. It would be quite unbearable.

She was also carrying out a sudden order today. Naturally, Qiao Nan also did not bring along a change of clothing.

There was a shimmer in Miao Jing’s eyes. The corners of her lips curled up and she looked pleased. “I didn’t consider it well enough. You didn’t bring any clothes, right? Hua Hua didn’t leave behind any clothes in this house. Hua Hua’s size is much larger than yours. It’s not suitable for you to wear Hua Hua’s clothes regardless. Why don’t we do this? I have a brand new set of lingerie. We should be about the same size. You can take mine and wear them. As for clothes… I recall that Zhai Sheng seems to have a few pieces of new white shirts in his bedroom. Why don’t you compromise and wear them first? After the clothes that you have changed out of have dried, you can wear them back tomorrow.”

Qiao Nan said ‘okay’ suspiciously. She then looked at Miao Jing, feeling perplexed. “Mom, why do I feel that you seem strange?”

“How am I strange? You, this child, are really…” Miao Jing turned away and smiled. “Alright, quickly go and bathe. Anyway, the clothes are all new and they belong to Zhai Sheng. You definitely won’t mind.”

“I certainly don’t mind.” Qiao Nan nodded honestly. She might feel a little strange if she was to wear used clothing. It was not a big issue if they were new. However, she kept feeling that what was going to happen would be stranger than her wearing Brother Zhai’s clothes. “It is just that…”

“Don’t talk anymore… Quickly go and bathe.” Without a word, Miao Jing pushed Qiao Nan into the bathroom and even conveniently closed the door for her.

At the sight of the door shutting, Qiao Nan did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Fine, Mom. I will bathe. But where are the clothes?”

Her mother-in-law could not possibly let her walk out naked after she finished bathing, right?

Although her future father-in-law was not at home and only she and her future mother-in-law were around, Qiao Nan really did not have such a strong heart to wander around naked ‘blindly’ in the small courtyard of the Zhai family. She could not do that.

“What’s the hurry? You can bathe first. After you finish bathing, I will get them for you.”

Miao Jing, who was holding on to the door of the bathroom tightly to prevent Qiao Nan from coming out said that. After thinking, Miao Jing changed her mind again. “I will help you bring over your bra and panties first.” This was in case it would become too stimulating later. The situation could spiral out of control. That would not be good then.

Facing the new bra and panties in her hands, Qiao Nan’s face was as distorted as that of an old woman. What exactly did this mean?

Where was the promised shirt?

Was her mother-in-law treating her as a model for a lingerie fashion show?

There was no alternative. She had already been pushed into the bathroom. Qiao Nan did not have another option.

During the day, the weather was extremely hot. In addition, Qiao Nan had been squatting in the kitchen for a long time. She smelled of sweat, oil, or smoke. Anyway, even Qiao Nan herself shunned this combination of smell on her body.

When she successfully heard the sound of water splashing in the bathroom, Miao Jing smiled with relief. She hummed a short tune as she put all the plates of dishes properly on the table.

Soon after, she heard Qiao Nan’s sullen voice. “Mom, I have finished bathing. Where is the new shirt?”

Miao Jing immediately perked up. “You have finished bathing? I am busy now. I need to find something and can’t go to Zhai Sheng’s room. Why don’t we do this? Isn’t there a big bath towel in the bathroom? You can use it first and then go to Zhai Sheng’s room to take the shirt yourself.”

After saying this, Miao Jing immediately disappeared into her own bedroom. She had to put on a full show.

“…” A row of black lines appeared on the forehead of Qiao Nan, who was still in the bathroom. Why was her future mother-in-law so unreliable?

Qiao Nan had a good temper. Moreover, it was not something of a big deal. After facing the wall for three seconds, Qiao Nan gave a sigh. She could only do according to what Miao Jing said, using the big towel to wrap herself first and then going to Zhai Sheng’s room to find the clothes.

After coming out from the bathroom and looking at the empty living room and a table of dishes, Qiao Nan could not help feeling glad and relieved that her father-in-law was not at home. Otherwise, she would rather endure this in the bathroom and would never appear in ‘public’ with this look.

With a sense of shame, Qiao Nan shrank her body. In quickened steps like a mouse, she found the doorknob of Zhai Sheng’s bedroom door at her fastest speed.

With the sound of a ‘ka’, Qiao Nan opened the door and went in.

“Who drew the curtains?” Qiao Nan had been to Zhai Sheng’s bedroom before. In particular, after the Zhai Yaohui couple moved in, the curtains of both Zhai Sheng’s and Zhai Hua’s bedrooms were all opened.

As the curtains were drawn, Qiao Nan, who was used to a bright world, could not see anything all of a sudden. It was so dark that she could not see anything.

Qiao Nan reached out for the wall. She wanted to turn on the lights in the room so that she would not search around like a blind man.

Who would have known that Qiao Nan, who reached out her hands, did not manage to touch the wall but something that was as hard as the wall. However, the surface of this hard object seemed to be wrapped with a layer of soft body.

The hard object felt warm and it even had lines on it. Squarish ones…

Qiao Nan could feel all these when her hands only moved up and placed on it gently.

When Qiao Nan realized that this was obviously not a wall but a man’s chest, she wanted to scream, turn back, and run away.

The other party grabbed Qiao Nan’s wrist and exerted a little strength. Due to forces of inertia, Qiao Nan, who wanted to escape, bumped hard into the arms of that person instead.

With the sound of a bang, one could vaguely feel sparks flying between the two of them.

“Hmm…” The other party snorted in a deep voice. An iron-like arm that was as agile as a snake took the initiative to wrap around Qiao Nan’s waist and tighten around it, locking Qiao Nan in tightly.
