Chapter 927 - Very Blessed
The Zhai family had kidnapped a daughter from the Qiao family, but their own daughter, after she met the right man, would also be kidnapped by others one day.
“Your book.” Shi Qing had been waiting for Qiao Nan at the entrance of Peking University for a long time. As soon as Qiao Nan arrived, she tucked all the books in Qiao Nan’s arms. “How is Auntie Miao? Is she feeling better?”
“She has caught a cold. She had a drip and took medicine.” Qiao Nan flipped the books to confirm that Shi Qing had taken the correct ones before she let out a sigh of relief.
“Crap.” Shi Qing deliberately gave a glare. “You actually don’t believe me. Since you don’t believe me, why do you still let me be your coolie? It’s not that you don’t know. Those language books of yours are so huge and thick, and they are extremely heavy.”
“Since you are available, it’s a waste not to use you. What kind of relationship do we have? Why would you take issue with such a small matter?” Qiao Nan also imitated Shi Qing and said shamelessly. Qiao Nan and Shi Qing were ‘hog and dog friends’ that influenced each other.
“Right, I have to tell you something. Yesterday, my maternal grandfather’s family came. Fortunately, you have already left with Chief Zhai during that time. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing.” Shi Qing did not expect that the Feng family would come to the house directly after they found out that Qiao Nan did not have any lessons on Tuesdays.
“Regarding the issue of the Feng family, you don’t need to worry about it anymore. My in-laws are here. The Feng family can’t stir up many waves. It is useless even if they round me up.” The Feng family wanted to curry favor with the Zhai family and be associated with the Zhai family.
The water from afar quenches not fire. Nevertheless, her in-laws were already in the capital now. If the Feng family did anything to her, the Zhai family would definitely not be too far away to save her.
It was too late for the Feng family to be anxious now.
“You don’t mind?” When she heard Shi Qing discuss it in such a casual manner about the Feng family, Qiao Nan was quite surprised. “You don’t feel upset?” No matter what, the ones who did this were Shi Qing’s biological maternal grandfather’s family. The most awkward thing was that the one being schemed by the Feng family was Shi Qing’s good friend. Shi Qing was ridiculously sandwiched in between them.
Shi Qing gave out an exasperated sigh. “I did feel upset initially. But after I sorted out my thoughts, I don’t feel that way anymore. Yes, they dote on me. Yes, they also want to make use of me. If they don’t mind my woes of being sandwiched, I will simply not make myself be in a difficult position. It’s up to them what they wish to do. I can’t intervene and I won’t do so. Whatever your thoughts are, it’s also up to you. I certainly won’t influence you because of the Feng family. Whether they can fulfill their wish eventually will not have anything to do with me.”
Anyway, her maternal grandfather’s family did not tell her anything openly right from the start.
Shi Qing was aware that the Feng family wanted face. They would not bluntly put such things in front of her.
However, her mother was so clueless. She sided with her maternal family and spoke to her daughter without any reservation.
After going through so many worrisome things in the Shi family and witnessing for herself the matters in the Qiao family, Shi Qing realized that her temper had improved tremendously. She felt more at peace and calm when she encountered people and problems. She was not as rude and impetuous as before.
The Feng family’s attitude happened to give Shi Qing an opportunity to find a balance.
After Shi Qing had sorted out her thoughts, her mood was very stable when she talked about the Feng family. She did not put herself in a difficult position or make herself suffer.
Qiao Nan was happy. “It has not been easy. My little friend has finally grown up.”
“If I didn’t wake up, I would really be bullied until I die in the future. Perhaps, during the time of my death, I wouldn’t even know how I died. Qiao Nan, is it always like that between relatives?” There were not many good people in her paternal grandfather’s family. Her maternal grandfather’s family was so focused on self-interest. The so-called kinship was totally different from what she learned from the school textbooks.
“Don’t overthink. Everyone will change after they form their own family. Who would not wish for their family to lead a better life? It is just that the people from your social circle are certainly a little more complicated. Anyway, people in my social circle may not even have the kind of kinship that you mentioned. There is no certainty in this matter. It depends on the individuals.”
Her mother’s relationship with her maternal family had been soured since a long time ago. It had been so many years. The Ding family had never been in contact with the Qiao family.
Qiao Nan really did not know the situation of her maternal grandmother’s family.
In her two lifetimes, she had never seen how her maternal grandparents looked like and which other relatives were in the family.
“I won’t chat with you anymore. My morning lesson is starting soon. Don’t think too much. You said that you have sorted out your thoughts, didn’t you? If the Feng family wishes to stir up something, that’s their problem. You just have to pretend to agree and smoke your way through. Since my in-laws are already here, there should not be any major issues.”
The Feng family wanted to fawn on the Zhai family. Now, the Zhai family’s heads were here. The Feng family did not need to involve her anymore.
“Okay, bye.” Shi Qing quietly took deep breaths. After she felt better, she then hugged her books and went to the library.
Shi Qing did not have any lessons today. However, given yesterday’s experience, Shi Qing was not willing to stay in the small courtyard of the Lin family in case the Feng family came to look for her because of Qiao Nan.
At this moment, Shi Qing was very glad that she had listened to Zhai Sheng in the past and stayed in the small courtyard of the Lin family —that she did not stay in the house of the Feng family together with Qiao Nan.
Otherwise, they really could not resolve the problem with the Feng family.
Shi Qing vaguely recalled that Brother Zhai insisted that she and Qiao Nan stayed in the small courtyard of the Lin family. In that case, he had already guessed the situation?
She could understand why he did not ask Qiao Nan to stay in the small courtyard of the Zhai family. She always knew that Qiao Nan was a very strong-headed lady. In certain areas, Qiao Nan had her own principles.
Although she met Tang Jiayun, this kind of top-notch product, Qiao Nan would rather endure it than to surrender and stay in the small courtyard of the Zhai family.The Feng family also had houses in the capital. Moreover, given the capability of the Feng family, it was also not difficult to rent a place that was nearer to Peking University. She had thus proposed that she could resolve the issue of accommodation.
At that time, Zhai Sheng rejected her suggestion without hesitation. Or rather, he had never considered letting Qiao Nan and Shi Qing stay in the house of the Feng family.
After eliminating the Zhai family and the Feng family, the house of Lin Yuankang in the capital became the best option.
Shi Qing gave a bitter smile. “Qiao Nan, you are really so blessed. Brother Zhai has already planned everything for you. As much as possible, he will help you avoid all troubles and provide you with a quiet learning environment. Although troubles come knocking on your door, no matter what, you are still very blessed.”
Brother Zhai truly protected Qiao Nan. He was meticulous and attentive in everything that had to do with her!
When Qiao Nan arrived in the classroom, the teacher was already there and the class also seemed to have started.
Fortunately, Qiao Nan was not very late. She picked a seat nearer to the back of the classroom which would not disturb others, sat down, and quietly listened to the class.
In the blink of an eye, the morning had passed. Qiao Nan twisted her neck and flung her hands. After tidying up her notes for the lesson, she wanted to solve the problem of her hunger.
