1135 Can You Help Me?

Wei De wrecked his brains but he could not figure out when and what happened exactly that caused everything to go off the original track.

Wei De, who could not find the answer, was slouching badly. Looking at his back view, he seemed to be fifty years old although he was just thirty.

He did not get to meet Zhai Hua and he had injuries all over his body. He did not have money either. Could he persist? Would the day of his victory arrive? Would a day come whereby everything that he had previously dreamed for came true?

Facing so many problems, Wei De could not give himself a definite answer.

Zhai Hua did not even know about Wei De’s encounter. She only knew that after she listened to Zhai Sheng’s words and left that day, Tian Dong came to her house to ask her out for a movie and meal again the following day.

It was also from that time onward that Wei De disappeared in the same and sudden way that he appeared.

After confirming that Wei De did not appear again, Zhai Hua could completely let the matter go. She naively thought that Wei De should face reality even if he could not sort out his thoughts. He had given up on those ludicrous plans in his mind and returned to Ping Cheng or his hometown to lead an honest life with his foster sister. After all, they had to raise Wei Wei, this son.

When he was in Ping Cheng, given Wei De’s behavior, he had wanted to nurture his own son into an elite.

Now, Wei De could not rely on the Zhai family anymore. He should devote his entire heart on raising Wei Wei, this child.

When Wei Wei was successful, Wei De would enjoy happiness sooner or later.

“Tian Dong, you keep coming to our house. What do you mean by this?” She had put aside Wei De’s matter but Tian Dong’s appearance gave her a headache. She was thinking. Why was Tian Dong not done yet?

“Didn’t you address me as Dongzi last time?” Tian Dong did not give a direct answer.

Zhai Hua rolled her eyes. “When I am in a good mood, I’ll call you Dongzi. Now, I am not happy, so I will call you Tian Dong as I wished. Also, don’t divert from the topic. What are you trying to do? Let me tell you. You are a man and I am a woman. We are already of this age. I am serious about finding a marriage partner. If you don’t wish to get married, don’t treat me like a shield. If it doesn’t work, you can find another one. Your family is so wealthy. It’s not difficult for you to find someone to put up an act with you.”

Basically, he should stop wasting her precious time that could have been allocated to getting married and having a child. He was to be blamed that she had not attended any other blind dates, besides him, for two months since she arrived in the capital.

“We are of the same age. I am also very serious about finding a marriage partner who I can marry and have a child with. You’re not my shield. Since everyone has the same thoughts, isn’t it just nice? We can implement it together.” Tian Dong’s face was very fair. Only his pair of jet-black eyes was shockingly black.

“Are... are you serious? What has it got to do with me?” Zhai Hua said uneasily. She even turned her face away to avoid that strange look in Tian Dong’s eyes.

Tian Dong smiled. He was not anxious to force Zhai Hua. If Zhai Hua had not just said that she wanted to draw a clear line, Tian Dong would not have expressed anything.

Zhai Hua had a very impatient character. Sometimes, she would do the opposite if one were to corner her too much.

Tian Dong had a lot of patience to dawdle with Zhai Hua.

When Zhai Hua was really anxious and could not afford to dawdle anymore, it was even more convenient. She could simply agree to marry him directly.

Of course, if Zhai Hua had some thoughts, Tian Dong would have to speed up his leisurely pace. He had to add on a few more firewood to the warm water that he was boiling the frog in so that the water would boil.

Zhai Hua felt that Tian Dong was acting strangely. Hence, she did not want to chat with him anymore.

Old Master Zhai had probably done something recently. In the past, she used to be as busy as Zhai Sheng. She was always in the army during the four seasons of the year. However, now, she had been ordered by her superiors to rest, nourish her health, and settle her lifetime happiness at the same time.

She felt really bored staying at home. She also felt awkward shopping with Tian Dong. She had no choice. Zhai Hua simply brought Tian Dong along to find Qiao Nan.

She was thinking that if Qiao Nan was around, she would not be alone with Tian Dong. She would not feel so uncomfortable then.

Today was the weekend. The class schedule for this semester was the same as the previous one. Qiao Nan was lucky that her classes were all scheduled on the weekdays. She could continue to be the volunteer guide during the two days on the weekends.

After knowing that Qiao Nan was involved in such activities, Zhai Hua had wanted to come and take a look. It was a good chance today.

Initially, everything was fine. Zhai Hua was enraged the moment she arrived. “Hello, who are you? Quickly let go of your hand.”

Just as she arrived at the entrance of the Palace Museum, Zhai Hua saw with her own eyes a young lady and Qiao Nan were engaged in a tug war.

Qiao Nan looked very unhappy and even requested the other party to let go of her hands. However, the other party refused to do so. The two had unfriendly expressions on their faces and looked like they were in an argument.

Qiao Nan was her sister-in-law. Without a word, Zhai Hua’s sixth sense told her that the young lady was insensible and bullying Qiao Nan, who was an honest and down-to-earth person.

When Yu Xiaoxiao heard the yell, she loosened her grip on Qiao Nan’s hands immediately, looking very guilty.

As Yu Xiaoxiao let go of her too suddenly, and since Qiao Nan was not in good spirits today initially, Qiao Nan lost her footing. Under the forces of inertia, Qiao Nan staggered and her whole body fell backward. Yu Xiaoxiao turned pale with fright.

She only wanted Qiao Nan’s help. She did not want to harm Qiao Nan. If Qiao Nan really had a fall, the more she would not receive Qiao Nan’s help.

Fortunately, Zhai Hua was very agile. She held on to Qiao Nan swiftly. “Who is she? Is she bullying you? Don’t be so good-tempered in the future. If someone bullies you, just shout for help. Young ladies nowadays are so ‘capable’. They can go overboard in broad daylight in front of so many people. Where is the quality?”

If she had not come over to take a look, Qiao Nan definitely would have fallen, and it would be a very bad fall.

“Young lady, why are you behaving in this way?!” The people in the management office heard a commotion and came out to take a look. When the other party saw Yu Xiaoxiao and Qiao Nan, he was angered. “I have already told you very clearly that I am not lacking in any manpower at the moment. Even if we are, you do not qualify.”

At first, when he heard that the other party was Qiao Nan’s classmate and a student of Peking University, he felt quite happy.

It was all volunteer work and thus, the more the merrier. They gave similar treatment and tested the English speaking ability of this classmate.

Six months ago, Qiao Nan performed so well in the test although she had just arrived in the capital. Although this was also a student of the foreign language faculty in Peking University, to his surprise, this young lady could not speak English well.

There were no examinations here. They did not need writing but speech ability.

They had given her a chance but she was not suitable. Of course, they could not let her stay. Who would have known that it was not over yet?

“I, I...” Yu Xiaoxiao’s face swelled in red. She was in tears and obviously feeling very awkward and embarrassed. However, she really did not wish to give up. She had used half a semester to find out why Qiao Nan had attained such high scores in social practice.
