Rebirth to a Military Marriage : GOOD MORNING CHIEF

Chapter 126 - 130

Chapter 126: Negotiation

After confirming that the visitor was not entirely a stranger, Qiao Nan opened the door. “You are…” Looking at the man before her, Qiao Nan paused for a moment “Officer Zhu?”

“If you do not mind, you can call me Uncle Zhu.” Zhu Chengqi was subtly sizing up Qiao Nan with a few glances. “Can we go in and talk?”

Zhu Chengqi just came back from the army, and he had not changed out of his military attire. Wearing the cold and crisp military uniform, Zhu Chengqi exuded a feeling of aloofness that kept people away.

“Come in.” Qiao Nan could not bring herself to call him ‘Uncle’. “Do you have any matter for today’s visit?”

“It is regarding Baoguo. I already know about it. First, as a father, I would like to thank you for the positive influence on Baoguo. As for what happened during his middle school examination, I have clarified the matter.” Since Zhu Chengqi’s sitting posture was very prim and proper, people around him also felt obliged to sit upright in a serious manner.

“You have clarified the matter?”

“Yes, I have,” Zhu Chengqi said. He seemed to be deep in thoughts as he glanced at Qiao Nan. He did not expect that the most cool-headed person in this matter was not his son, sister or father; it was someone who did not belong to the Zhu family—a classmate of his son.

“Good that it has been clarified.” Qiao Nan nodded with relief. “There is one matter which was not convenient for me to speak about in the residence of the Zhu family at that time. However, I feel that, as Zhu Baoguo’s father, you should know about this.”

“What is it?”

“Around the beginning of this year, Wang Yang once led a group of people to round up on me. As for the reason, I believe you should know by now without the need for me to explain. Wang Yang harbored a sense of enmity toward Zhu Baoguo. Regarding the incident where Zhu Baoguo was so badly beaten, not finding out the truth of the matter indicates that you failed to fulfill your responsibility as Zhu Baoguo’s father.”

Elder Zhu was quite good to Wang Yang, his maternal grandson. Zhu Qin would definitely side with her own son.

Qiao Nan knew that if she revealed the matter about Wang Yang rounding her up at that time, Zhu Baoguo would be furious to the point of losing his sanity and make a fuss about it. That would cause the situation to go out of control and become unfavorable to Zhu Baoguo. There was no advantage in doing that.

Zhu Baoguo was like a little calf. As long as he saw something red, his eyes would burn with anger, and he would lose his mind easily.

Wang Yang drugged Zhu Baoguo and nearly caused him to miss the middle school examination. However, neither Elder Zhu nor Zhu Qin believed it. If she were to reveal that Wang Yang was the mastermind behind the previous incident where Zhu Baoguo was nearly killed by the hooligans, would Elder Zhu and Zhu Qin believe her?

Zhu Chengqi was shocked. He did not expect the matter Qiao Nan was referring to was actually this. “Really?”

“I do not have the need to lie,” Qiao Nan replied very calmly.

“Alright, I know.” Zhu Chengqi looked at Qiao Nan. “No matter what, you have been a great help to Zhu family this time. Is there anything you want?”  ( Boxno vel. co m )

The matter about Wang Yang aside, Qiao Nan had been indispensable in helping Zhu Baoguo with his middle school examination. The Zhu family did not have the habit of owing others a favor.

After hearing what Zhu Chengqi said, Qiao Nan’s expression changed.

Zhu Chengqi said directly, “You do not need to feel burdened by this. Everyone has their own ways of doing things. Even if you accept my gratitude, you can still continue to be friends to Baoguo. I will not stop you, and I also do not have the intention of looking down on you.”
