Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

“Hahaha.” Zhai Hua smiled dryly. She glanced sideways at Qiao Nan and nearly engraved three words on her face: I don’t believe you!

Qiao Nan felt wronged and aggrieved. “Before pregnancy, I don’t eat those things. I dislike them for their strong taste.” Stinky tofu and durians were all food with strong flavors and smell.

Durians were so costly. Before she was pregnant, she had neither eaten nor thought of eating such food in her two lifetimes.

Stinky tofu was cheap but she did not touch it when her father bought it home in the past.

“Have you forgotten? The doctor reminded you before that a woman’s taste will go through great changes after they become pregnant. I am very unfortunate. The babies in my womb are those who love food with strong flavors. They can’t take the food on their own, so they can only torture me.”

Qiao Nan’s eyes turned red and her tiny lips pouted. She felt extremely aggrieved.

To her, all those items were very smelly.

Before she was pregnant, she was not willing to take more glances at them.

She did not expect that the babies in her womb did not resemble her at all. They liked strong-flavored food.

Fortunately, she did not overeat. Otherwise, Qiao Nan would feel worried for her children and herself.

At the thought that she craved for these food because of the babies’ needs, Qiao Nan felt nervous again. “Sister Zhai Hua, after I give birth to the babies, when they grow up and can eat things on their own, will our house be filled with the smells of stinky tofu or durians?”

Zhai Hua was imagining a house that would be filled with ‘smells’ in the future. At the thought of it, she could not help shivering. “Will… will it that bad? Maybe the babies only like to eat them when they are in your womb. They will change after they are born.”

Zhai Hua and Qiao Nan glanced at each other and laughed helplessly.

“Hello?” The phone rang and broke the awkwardness between the two that arose due to this frightening imagination. “Yes, I am. Wait… Who did you say came? Who is here?”

After listening to the names clearly, Zhai Hua pulled a long face. She covered the phone receiver. “Nan Nan, there’s a man and a woman outside at the entrance. They said that they are your sister and brother-in-law. Are you going to see them?”

As for the two people’s names, Zhai Hua did not wish to mention them. She was afraid that it would hurt her mouth.

However, why did these two people come to the capital?

“…” Qiao Nan was silent.

Last time, she did not hear any ‘follow up’ after her father hung up the phone.

Unexpectedly, despite not receiving any more phone calls, Qiao Zijin actually appeared at her doorstep directly.

Looking at Qiao Nan’s reaction, Zhai Hua raised her eyebrows. “You already know about it?”

“My dad gave me a call on this but I rejected him. Given my situation, he still asked me to take care of her. Would I have agreed? My dad also told me to take it that he did not make that call. Who would have known that someone still came regardless.” Qiao Nan’s lips were pursed tightly. She was also trying to restrain her tone.

“Are you going to see them?”

“I don’t wish to.”

Zhai Hua sighed. She understood that Qiao Nan did not wish to see them but had to. “Fine. I’ll let them come in first.”

After a while, Qiao Zijin and Chen Jun had been led in by someone until they arrived at the front door of the Zhai family’s house.

The guards at the door were even stricter than the security guards of the quad in Ping Cheng. Seeing that the Zhai family was staying in a western-style bungalow instead of the quad now, Qiao Zijin’s heart was filled with envy and jealousy. No one else could understand how she felt.

Qiao Nan was different now after this marriage. Qiao Nan was now living a life that she had been dreaming of.

This style… This display of splendor…

At the thought of Chen Jun, who was standing beside her, Qiao Zijin’s heart felt so sour as if it was immersed in a sea of jealousy.

No matter how much she consoled herself that Chen Jun was a lot more outstanding than other men, she could not hide the fact that Chen Jun could not be compared to Zhai Sheng.

If she were to rely on Chen Jun, she dared not even hope for the day in her lifetime whereby she could live such a good life.

This was something unknown to her, yet Qiao Nan was already enjoying it so much. Qiao Zijin, who had been competitive since a young age and liked to subdue Qiao Nan, definitely could not accept such a gap.

“Cough…” Qiao Zijin’s eyes and expression were looking increasingly odd. Chen Jun narrowed his eyes and reminded her by coughing twice.

Qiao Zijin’s body turned stiff. She quickly restrained the emotions underneath her eyes and gave a hard blink to try to make her eyes watery. Thereafter, the expression on her face also became gentler.

“…” Qiao Nan was instantly speechless.

On the other hand, Zhai Hua seemed to have been struck by thunder upon seeing Qiao Zijin’s blink. Was this considered casting sheep’s eye or what? Was there a name for this?

Qiao Nan shook her head at Zhai Hua. Qiao Zijin had a new trick up her sleeves. Anyway, she had not seen this before.

Obviously, Chen Jun was also surprised that Qiao Zijin would be so stupid to come up with such a tactic eventually.

If she was not able to cry now, so be it. Nevertheless, it was fine as long as she did not distort that not-so-beautiful face of hers until it looked like that of a jealous old witch.

Would blinking her eyes hard evoke feelings of wanting to cry? Damn, who taught Qiao Zijin this?

Facing such a girlfriend like Qiao Zijin who would commit foolish acts from time to time, be easily jealous, and behave willfully, no one else could understand the misery in Chen Jun’s heart.

It was true. If he had another path to take or managed to woo Qiu Chenxi successfully in the past, Qiao Zijin would not be involved today.

The biological sister had been married to and became the daughter-in-law of the Zhai family. She had a capable ‘tummy’ and was now pregnant with two children. However, Qiao Zijin did not bask this glory at all. Instead, her life seemed to be deteriorating.

How stupid could the Qiao family get to end up in such a ludicrous situation?

Unfortunately, there was no ‘what if’ in life.

After Qiu Chenxi went to Mo Du, Chen Jun heard some news about her. Qiu Chenxi was doing very well now.

A starving camel is still bigger than a horse. This was a saying that could withstand the test of time.

Regardless of how useless the Shi family was, they were still better than his own family who did not have any foundation.

Furthermore, Shi Peng was doing so well now. It was a matter of time before he would be deployed to the central government.

It was extremely hard for a typical person to enter the central government. If they did, it would be akin to great happiness befalling the family. On the other hand, someone like Shi Peng who was only in his early forties was already seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

Nothing was fair in this world.

If that was not the situation, he would not always need to make use of women. He just wanted the political path of his biological father to become smoother, longer, and farther.

However, he refused to bow to destiny.

The Chen family did not have any foundation. His father could become a small government official because he was capable.

If they were willing to work hard and engineer things, the Chen family would be the next prominent and influential family one day.

When Qiao Zijin felt that she had adjusted her mindset, she gave Qiao Nan a weak smile. “Nan Nan, Chen Jun and I happened to come to the capital for a holiday. I thus came to visit you. Please don’t take Mom’s previous words to heart. You should know Mom’s temper.”
