Chapter 979 - Who Is the Sewer?
Yet, the one that Wei De looked down on most was the one who could read his mind best.
Zhai Hua could not help shivering a little. If Qiao Nan’s suspicions were correct, then, perhaps the greatest mistake that Wei De had committed in his life was not deceiving her but underestimating Qiao Nan.
“He has failed miserably in dealing with someone that he thinks is a sewer?” Zhai Sheng, who received this answer, almost convicted Wei De of the crime.
As a soldier and an ordinary person who was rational, Zhai Hua had never believed that there would be so many shocking and surprising coincidences in this world.
If there were too many coincidences, that would be a human’s doing!
Zhai Sheng’s brows furrowed. “I think you are the one whose heart is with a sewer.”
What kind of lousy analogy was that? How could Nan Nan be a sewer?
Zhai Hua laughed miserably. “That’s true. I’m the one who judged someone wrongly, not you. Zhai Sheng, you should be pleased now. Even in terms of partner, Qiao Nan is more capable than Wei De. She is also more open and honest.” As for the Wei De that she found, he was like a griddle with many holes in it.
At the sight of Zhai Hua’s grim smile, Zhai Sheng only felt that it was an eyesore. “There’s nothing to be pleased about. At most, this proves that I have a better sense of judgment in character than you. That’s all.” “Right, that’s all.” As if she was venting her frustration, Zhai Hua slapped her hand on the study table with all her might. She did not seem to feel any pain. “Qiao Nan has given me this advice before. Who has not loved a scum when they were young?” At that time, she still refused to admit that Wei De was a scum. She felt that, at most, Wei De was an ordinary man with more shortcomings than the average person.
At this moment, Zhai Hua could not continue with such naive thinking.
In order to protect his secrets, he could harm someone by causing the latter to lose his leg and force him to leave the army. In addition, he vainly attempted to replace that person and assume his role. This kind of scheming thoughts, he did not just have more shortcomings than the average person. He was more vicious and heartless than them!
Zhai Sheng looked at Zhai Hua, who looked like she was going to have an emotional breakdown. “I’m glad you know. Better late than never. You’re only dating Wei De. You’re not married yet. So, it’s not too late to discover this now.”
“So what if we are married?!” Zhai Hua gritted her teeth. “Even if we have a military marriage and it’s not easy to get a divorce, Qiao Nan is right. If I really marry the wrong man, I will divorce him no matter how hard it is. I can accept my lover’s shortcomings but I definitely can’t allow him to behave so despicably by harming his comrades in this way.”
Not to mention that this was her lover. Without a word, Zhai Hua would kick an ordinary soldier who behaved in this way out of the army. Zhai Hua was already so strict toward ordinary soldiers. When it came to her other half, she would only have stricter requirements for him.
At that moment, she made a firm decision. Once she had investigated clearly whether what Wei De did to Platoon Leader Jiang was on purpose and not by accident, Zhai Hua would not give Wei De any more chances. Zhai Hua, who wanted to cut all ties with Wei De, did not expect that this was not the only wicked thing that Wei De had done. There would be more mind-blowing things that Zhai Hua would get to know.
After Qiao Nan handed the investigation on Wei De to Zhai Sheng, she had not contacted Zhai Sheng much.
Zhai Sheng had his missions to handle and Qiao Nan was busy with her studies. Moreover, she was prepared not to receive any outcome of the investigations in such a short time.
She might as well cast Wei De’s matter aside temporarily and manage her own affairs properly first.
After National Day, Qiao Nan received, one by one, the letters from Wei De that Zhai Hua re-routed to her. Qiao Nan felt calmer and assured.
As long as Zhai Hua did not relent and was determined not to contact Wei De, she would not be appeased by Wei De. As such, Qiao Nan did not feel anxious at all about investigating Wei De’s background.
“Hurry.” Not long after National Day, keeping it from the Feng family, Shi Qing transferred to PLA National Defence University at lightning speed. The Feng family did not even have the time to react. Also, the events of the new English club that Xu Shengnan had made many preparations for were finally going to happen.
Under the huge support of Gao Yan, the events of the new English club was no longer like the past. They would no longer be mocked by others for being shabby. The stage was set up, the equipment and gear were rented, the sound system was up, and the gorgeous lights were bright!
At the sight of all these, Xu Shengnan was feeling increasingly motivated despite being very tied up. She seemed to have an abundance of energy. She was shouting orders at others and rolling up her sleeves at the same time.
“Vice President Xu, the stage has already been decorated according to your design.” Qiao Nan wiped away the sweat on her forehead. As the secretary who was only responsible for securing sponsorships for the club, Qiao Nan could almost retire after having made her mark.
However, she was obligated to this event. After all, she had forked out much effort. It was the final preparation stage. There was no reason that Qiao Nan would place both her hands in her pockets and stand aside to watch. Of course, she would help as much as she could.
“Okay, thank you.” Xu Shengnan was so exhausted that her chin was turning sharp. Nevertheless, her eyes were still as bright as ever. “Qiao Nan, why don’t you help me confirm if those rented costumes don’t have any problem?”
“Sure.” This was not a complicated task. Qiao Nan was holding on to the event list and preparation notes from Xu Shengnan. She then matched the pile of costumes that filled the backstage to the pictures. “The quantity and design are all correct. Are the performers going to collect the costumes now and change into them?”
Xu Shengnan took a glance. “When you feel that it is the right time, go ahead.”
After hearing this reply from Xu Shengnan, Qiao Nan got people to collect their costumes. At the sight of Qiao Nan behaving like the host, busy in and out, arranging everything and even ‘ordering’ her seniors around, the college freshmen, especially those who were her classmates, felt very unhappy.
Lü Yan’s jealousy and hate of Qiao Nan nearly popped out of her eyes and pounced on Qiao Nan. “Humph, taking a chicken feather for a warrant to issue orders. She is just a fox in a tiger’s clothing, pretending to be fierce and powerful. What’s there to be proud of?”
The events of the new English club had commenced. Of course, the old English club could not fall behind.
Xu Shengnan was not the only one who was enduring anger. She wanted to beat Zou Wenxuan and let the new English club outshine the old English club. Zou Wenxuan, who was as arrogant, had the same thinking. Zou Wenxuan launched the events of the old English club on the same day as the new English club as she badly wanted to subdue Xu Shengnan and the new English club.
Xu Shengnan did not know how to blunt the edge of one’s advance. She was thus courting for death. Zou Wenxuan was not polite at all. She would fight until the end with Xu Shengnan then.
This year, due to Qiao Nan’s sudden appearance, the ‘poorest’ new English club had become one of the most ‘prosperous’ clubs for this round of club events.
Many people in the school knew about the history of the old and new English clubs, especially Zou Wenxuan and Xu Shengnan’s relationship. Hence, many were waiting to be in for a good show. They wanted to see if the clubs could come up with something refreshing this year.
