Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Shi Qing held her head and yawned. “He can’t possibly let me work for nothing. Furthermore, your suggestion is good. I will ponder over it for some time and then bring up the matter of changing the course of study. During this period of time, Brother Zhai still has to depend on me to take good care of his wife, right?”

It had been so many years. One is marked by the company one keeps.

Ever since hearing Qiao Nan’s suggestion, Shi Qing had already begun plotting on Zhai Sheng. She not only asked Zhai Sheng to keep this from her father but also requested Zhai Sheng to find information and materials for her.

Shi Qing knew that Zhai Sheng was the best person to seek help from on this matter.

The reality was as such. Zhai Sheng did not need to search for these materials at all. He only needed to casually throw a couple of those reading materials that he had used before to Shi Qing. That was enough to keep Shi Qing occupied for some time, researching.

Without any more romantic love, Shi Qing and Zhai Sheng should talk about something more practical. He could not just keep holding on to her and bullying her, this sister. Zhai Sheng should also behave like an elder brother. This would make her more willing to help.

Zhu Baoguo was just a student. His materials were definitely not complete.

Change was the only constant thing nowadays. The knowledge in this area was also advancing progressively.

Given Zhu Baoguo’s current situation, he certainly could not keep up with the progress. On the other hand, Zhai Sheng’s research and studies in this area would definitely not fall behind.

It was rare for Shi Qing to use some of her brains on this. As such, she had truly found herself an excellent and readily available ‘great master’.

“Qiao Nan, it’s great to have you around.” Countless people had once requested to borrow these notes and materials from Zhai Sheng, and Zhai Sheng had always said that he no longer kept them. In the end, they landed in her pocket. At the thought of this, Shi Qing was so glad and grateful that she had met Qiao Nan.

Qiao Nan chuckled. “Alright, stop sucking up to me. I’m going to bathe first. It’s almost time for you to wash up and sleep. If you ruin your grades now, your dad will most likely dash to school before you can change your course of study. For the sake of your ambitions and hobbies, it will be tough on you.” Shi Qing was basically studying two courses simultaneously. Even if her grades for the main course of study were not too outstanding, it should not be too lousy either.

Those who knew Shi Qing were aware that her grades had never fallen below those of the top three students in the class.

If there was a great disparity in her grades between now and before, given Shi Peng’s sensitivity, how would he not suspect anything?

“I know.” Shi Qing was not angry. She knew that Qiao Nan was stating the facts and the latter was sparing a thought for her in all areas. “Right, I’m going back to the Feng’s residence this weekend.”

“Go ahead.” Qiao Nan took her clothes and went into the bathroom directly to bathe.

Shi Qing was the maternal granddaughter of the Feng family. No matter how much Qiao Nan disliked the Feng family, she certainly could not show any slightest reluctance of letting Shi Qing keep in touch with the Feng family.

When she heard the sound of water splashing in the bathroom, Shi Qing bit her books. This was not what she wanted to say. The sentence thereafter was what she wanted to say most.

Having been friends with Qiao Nan for a few years, Shi Qing was aware of Qiao Nan’s temperament.

Her maternal grandmother’s and mother’s words put her in a difficult position.

Earlier on, the attitude of the Feng family was too negative, but Qiao Nan never complained to her about it. She also did not distance herself from her or lose her temper over this. However, she was aware that Qiao Nan did not have any positive feelings about the Feng family. She only wanted to avoid them.

Sigh…

Her mother and maternal grandmother told her that this was all a misunderstanding, that they had been misled by Qiu Chenxi. Those things that happened earlier-could they smoke their way through just with the word ‘misunderstanding? Would Qiao Nan be able to accept that?

If it was her, Shi Qing would not be pleased, let alone Qiao Nan.

Since they said that it was a misunderstanding, so be it. Anyway, they were not related to each other and did not have any interaction. After the ‘misunderstanding’ was cleared, they could go on their separate ways. They did not need to keep in touch at all.

Although she was aware of this, Shi Qing could not completely pretend that she did not hear her biological mother’s and maternal grandmother’s words. Furthermore, one was her maternal grandmother’s family and the other was her good friend. If these two parties could get along amicably, she would feel very happy.

After thinking for some time and seeing that Qiao Nan had come out from the bathroom, Shi Qing mustered her courage and said, “I will be going back to the Feng’s residence this weekend.”

Qiao Nan, who was drying her hair, raised her brows. “You told me about this just now, and I heard you clearly. Go back then. Right, are you planning to stay overnight at the Feng’s residence that day? If you are coming back, I will leave the door open for you. If you are not, I will lock it up.”

“I…” Shi Qing wanted to say that she was not coming back but she almost spat when she recalled that this was not her main point. “My grandmother and my mom asked me to invite you to come along. I have explained to you about their previous attitude toward you. Qiu Chenxi was the one who sowed discord. Now, the misunderstanding has been cleared. They also know what kind of person Qiu Chenxi is. Her earlier phone call was made to smear your name. We wish to invite you back to have a meal and also apologize to you. Qiao Nan, come with me, please.”

After this matter was resolved, perhaps she would be able to go everywhere with Qiao Nan again. They could return to the Feng’s residence and the small courtyard together, just like they did when they were in Ping Cheng. That would be great.

Qiao Nan stopped drying her hair for a moment. She then smiled casually. “There is no need to apologize. They are all my seniors. I am just a junior. The misunderstanding has been cleared. That will do. They are even going to specially apologize to me. I will be shameless if I dare to think about getting an apology. You should stick to the plan and don’t mind me. I am not going with you. I have something on during the weekend.”

She did not even want to eat the food from Feng Meng that Shi Qing brought home. Would she dare to eat at the family banquet in the Feng’s residence?

She did not know why the Feng family showed so much displeasure toward her initially. Now that the misunderstanding had already been cleared, they even enthusiastically invited her for an apology meal. Qiao Nan would like to say, “So sorry, I’m not available!”

“You don’t have any lessons this weekend.” Shi Qing was a little worried. “Are you still angry?”

“My goodness, missy, have you forgotten? I am someone that needs to do social practice. It’s not that you don’t know my family’s situation. I have to continue to work hard to achieve good grades and obtain scholarships. Otherwise, how would I graduate from college?”

Angry?

Why would she spend so much energy being angry at the Feng family? If she had the energy to do so, she would rather read one more book, memorize one more word, or understand one more phrase.

“You have decided on it?” Shi Qing recalled that Qiao Nan had told her about this before while they were on the way here. She had forgotten it for a moment.

“Yes. Otherwise, what do you think I was busy with today?” When she felt that her hair was half dry, Qiao Nan was not willing to waste her time anymore. “I am tired and would like to sleep. You shouldn’t sleep too late as well. Quickly wash up and go to bed.”

“Okay.”

When Qiao Nan closed the door of the bedroom, Shi Qing then recalled that she had to return to the Feng’s residence during the weekend.

Shi Qing sighed. She did not know whether her maternal grandmother and family would be able to accept it if she were to tell them Qiao Nan’s reason. The problem was that Qiao Nan was merely stating facts. Between accepting an apology and doing social practice to obtain good grades, which one was more important?
