Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 1611-1620

Chapter 1611: Feeling Aggrieved

Qiao Dongliang laughed self-deprecatingly. The capital was really a gold mine. Even though a niche was just a square box of less than a square meter of space, the prices were still horribly expensive. While he was still working, he would have had to spend an entire year’s worth of salary just to purchase this small square meter of space. But even after spending such a huge sum of money, there was no guarantee that he would be able to get the space ready in time.

Qiao Dongliang did not wish for Qiao Zijin to have no resting place even after her death. He would have hated it if he had to carry Qiao Zijin’s ashes and travel thousands of miles back to Ping Cheng just to find somewhere to lay Qiao Zijin to rest. “Your sister had envied the bustle of the capital her whole life. People say that you should return to your roots, but I know your sister would have wanted to stay in the capital. I have no choice but to ask you to waste this sum of money.”

His elder daughter had passed away so suddenly, and in such a tragic way as well. The car that had knocked her down was even his younger daughter’s. After suffering from this double blow at once, Qiao Dongliang had no energy or spirit to deal with the details of Qiao Zijin’s funeral.

Qiao Nan had already guessed Qiao Dongliang’s situation and thus decided to hire one of Zhai Sheng’s retired comrades to help out with this matter. In matters that required asking for favors, she would first use her own. If that failed, she would then resort to using the Zhai family’s name. With this double reassurance, it was smooth-flowing for that comrade to deal with matters—much easier than if Qiao Dongliang were to do everything himself.

Qiao Nan bit on her lip. “Dad, I don’t mean to say anything against my conscience. But now that Qiao Zijin is gone, we should respect the dead. This money… I’ll just treat it as accumulating karma. I hope that I’ll never meet her again in my next life.” Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi had not gotten along well as mother and daughter, and they were in no way happy. Her relationship with her sister was an even greater mess. It could be said that her relationship with her neighbor was even better than with her sister.

In their next lives, it would be best if these three women never met in any way or even had a shred of relationship. Even if they met on the streets, Qiao Nan hoped that Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi would walk on the other side of the street. The three would be like parallel lines that would never intersect.

Thinking about how she had already had two lives worth of relationships with these two women, Qiao Nan did not know whether to cry or laugh. Between the three of them, only she had such an experience. To that, she could not tell whether it was her blessing or Ding Jiayi’s and Qiao Zijin’s blessings.

“All right. You’ll never meet in the future.” Qiao Dongliang patted Qiao Nan on the shoulder. If there really was a next life, he would rather be a bachelor his whole life than marry a woman like Ding Jiayi again. As long as he did not marry Ding Jiayi, even if he had children, it would not be Zijin or Nan Nan.

With a different mother, his child’s childhood and even the child’s whole life would definitely be much happier than the ones Zijin and Nan Nan had. He, too, would be much happier with a complete family.

As the father and daughter were chatting, a loud confusion of noise and cries came from outside.

Qiao Dongliang and Qiao Nan knew instinctively at the same time without needing to get out that the only person who would be making a din under such a situation could only be Ding Jiayi. No one else was capable of doing such a thing.

“Wait here. I’ll go have a look. Thankfully, it’s the last day today. She’ll never get a chance to disturb Zijin anymore in her whole life.” Qiao Dongliang’s face was as cold as frost.
