Chapter 1003 Do You Want Him Dead?

As such, it was not wrong at all for Qiao Nan to say that Zhai Hua’s life had been too good and she was asking for trouble.

“She is right!” Old Master Zhai, who had also rushed back to the house of the Zhai family, heard the criticisms from his granddaughter-in-law of his granddaughter. He agreed totally as he had expected better from Zhai Hua. “You’re asking for trouble. I really regret it. When you were a child, I doted on you too much. I’d been overly protective of you. You have become so spoiled. Although it is not common to subscribe to the saying ‘spare the rod and spoil the child’ now, I should not have raised you in that way. You can’t differentiate what is right and wrong!”

“Dad.” Zhai Yaohui was very surprised that Old Master Zhai could come back at this time.

Miao Jing wiped away her years as she also greeted, “Dad.”

“Grandpa.” This time, Zhai Sheng finally dared to release his hand that was earlier holding on to that of Zhai Hua. In both Zhai Sheng and Zhai Hua’s hearts, the regard and trust for the old master had never been low.

“To bring bad things upon oneself as a result of one’s bad character. If there were no problems with your personal conduct, would he target you? Would he treat you like a child and toy with you?” Old Master Zhai was infuriated.

When his wife was alive, she wanted a daughter very badly.

However, at that time, there was chaos in the country. He was killing enemies on the battlefield and his wife was a nurse in the rear logistics team.

In their entire lives, during their most passionate moments when they were young, the time that the couple could sleep in the same bed could almost be counted with one hand.

As such, the elderly couple only had one son, Zhai Yaohui, although other families had many children.

When Grandmother Zhai was alive, she wanted a daughter very much. However, when the country was peaceful, the couple was already old. They had also accumulated many lingering illnesses from wartime. As such, they could only imagine how it was like having a daughter.

Thereafter, when Zhai Hua was born, Grandmother Zhai was overjoyed.

So as to speak, Grandmother Zhai was smiling when she left the world because of Zhai Hua’s birth.

Due to Grandmother Zhai’s wish, Old Master Zhai, a tough and burly man who did not even know how to raise a man, started to raise his little granddaughter. He was not exaggerating when he said that he was afraid that he would drop her when he held her, and when he put her in his mouth, she would melt.

He had always felt that his granddaughter was a seedling of his family. Given her ancestry roots, her character would not go astray no matter how much he pampered her.

Who would have thought that when she was almost thirty years old, his granddaughter would slap his face so hard and umpteen times?

Zhai Hua always felt that she was the one who suffered the most in this matter. She hated to the core Wei De’s lies. She heartlessly felt that the whole world had abandoned her.

Now, first, it was Qiao Nan. Next, it was Old Master Zhai.

The only two people whom she would listen to had continuously bombarded her. Zhai Hua felt so upset that she wanted to die. “I have already become like this. You are not consoling me and helping me vent my anger. Instead, you are chiding me. Do you hate me so much?”

Old Master Zhai’s expression changed greatly as he was upset by Zhai Hua’s inability to appreciate kindness. He was so furious that he was catching his breath.

“Old master, why are you so agitated? She has a biological father that’s older than her. She has me who is younger. Even if she has gone astray, we can lead her back to the correct path.” Zhai Sheng furrowed his brows as he held Old Master Zhai to a seat.

Earlier on, Zhai Sheng’s heart ached for Zhai Hua as she had been taken in by someone like Wei De.

Now, when he saw Old Master Zhai’s face turning as white as a sheet, just as Qiao Nan said earlier, Zhai Sheng had some urge to give Zhai Hua a beating.

Qiao Nan’s tiny lips were pursed tightly. “Auntie, can I trouble you to bring us a cup of water?”

“Aye, sure.” The auntie, who had been scared out of her wits, had been hiding by the side. She dared not be involved in such ugly family affairs.

When she heard Qiao Nan’s request for a cup of tea, she dared not shirk the duty. This was because she knew very well that Qiao Nan would become the female head of the family in the future. Furthermore, once the old master appeared, he was on Qiao Nan’s side.

All the authoritative figures from the first to the third generation of the Zhai family were on Qiao Nan’s side. The auntie did not underestimate Qiao Nan just because she was Zhai Sheng’s fiancée. On the contrary, she was very careful to complete the task that Qiao Nan had given to her. She was not sloppy at all.

After the auntie prepared the drink, she cleverly placed them in front of the old master.

“Besides him, everyone, please sit down. It’s too tiring to stand.” Qiao Nan, who had spent a long time traveling today, only felt that her whole body was falling apart. She sat down first.

Of course, Qiao Dongliang sat beside Qiao Nan. Zhai Sheng and Zhai Yaohui thus sat at the left and right side of Zhai Hua, lest Zhai Hua become agitated again and do anything foolish.

Miao Jing sat down beside Qiao Nan quietly. The ‘him’ from Qiao Nan’s mouth, Wei De, was still slumped on the floor, pretending to be dead. He was terrified, uneasy, and shocked.

Wei De did not expect that his relationship with Wei Wei was still exposed despite the fact that Platoon Leader Jiang was forced to leave the army before him. This matter even caused Zhai Hua to explode in anger.

All this while, Wei De was very confident of his relationship with Zhai Hua. He felt that it was impossible for Zhai Hua to leave him as he had her in his clutches and was at his beck and call.

This kind of self-deceiving confidence disappeared completely along with the exposure of Wei Wei’s origins.

Wei De was terrified that Zhai Hua would break up with him and ignore him forever because of Wei Wei. How was he going to save the relationship then?

If he were to tell Zhai Hua now that he was willing to send Wei Wei back to his hometown, not see Wei Wei ever again and would not acknowledge his relationship with Wei Wei, would Zhai Hua forgive him?

At this moment, Wei De dared not play mind games with Zhai Hua anymore.

As long as Zhai Hua made her request, Wei De would agree at once—even if she asked him not to acknowledge Wei Wei henceforth or to sever all ties with his family in his hometown.

At this point in time, Wei De hated himself most for relenting and listening to his mother’s nagging. He not only brought Wei Wei to Ping Cheng but also wanted Zhai Hua to help him raise and nurture Wei Wei so that Wei Wei could follow the footsteps of other children in the city.

If Wei Wei did not appear, who would suspect this matter that happened in his hometown? After all, according to his personal profile, he was single.

Even if they used the computer to check his information, he was also single!

“Hua Hua, I...” Wei De had mustered enough courage. He wanted to admit his wrongdoing to Zhai Hua and ask for her forgiveness.

Tears welled up in Zhai Hua’s eyes. She lifted a cup and smashed it at Wei De’s face. “If you don’t want to die, it’s best that you shut up.”

At this moment, Wei De’s voice was something that Zhai Hua did not wish to hear most. When she heard Wei De speak, she turned into a mad dog that was crazy and flaring.

When she saw Zhai Hua behave like that, Qiao Nan gave a long sigh. Zhai Hua’s lips trembled at the sadness and pain in this sigh. Tears welled up in her eyes again.

There was no choice. Qiao Nan had experienced before the embarrassment and pain that Zhai Hua was going through today.

Although Qiao Nan only gave a gentle sigh without saying a word, it could also trigger such emotions from Zhai Hua. “Sister Hua Hua, do you want him dead?”

Wei De’s eyes turned stiff. He glared at Qiao Nan with shock and anger. He was furious that Qiao Nan was so long-winded at this moment. She even said such malicious things.
