Chapter 376: Absolute Loyalty

Upon hearing that Qiao Nan was worried that he would misunderstand, Zhai Sheng’s expression looked more at ease. “At least, you still have some conscience.”

“I’ve always been full of conscience!” Qiao Nan said with displeasure as she snorted.

“Why do you have to tell me only when Chen Jun comes again?” Based on what Uncle Qiao said, Chen Jun was definitely up to no good. There was no reason for Nan Nan not to tell him.

Qiao Nan sighed. “If Chen Jun comes again, that means Uncle Zhu is unable to resolve this matter. To prevent the situation that you will hear false rumors about Chen Jun and me from others, I’ll definitely let you know first to avoid any unnecessary misunderstanding between us.”

“You’re quite rational.” Again, Zhai Sheng looked happier. “Why did you mention Zhu Chengqi? What has Zhu Chengqi got to do with Chen Jun?”

“The matter is like this…” Qiao Nan narrated the situation of the Zhu family to Zhai Sheng. “So, I’m guessing that most likely, Chen Jun is wooing me because of Wang Yang.”

There was a sharp look in Zhai Sheng’s eyes. “You’re so certain? You seem to understand Chen Jun very well, don’t you?”

“…” Qiao Nan’s body turned a little stiff. “This has got nothing to do with whether I understand him or not. This is a woman’s sixth sense. If you’re present at that time, you’d definitely feel the weird atmosphere between Chen Jun and Wang Yang. When Chen Jun came to my school previously, he was very eloquent and soon after, both the male and female students addressed him as their senior. There’s no reason for him to be so quiet in front of Wang Yang. I even made clear a few times Wang Yang’s identity and his relationship with the Zhu family. He didn’t even utter a word to Wang Yang. Do you think that was normal?”

Zhai Shang gently squeezed Qiao Nan’s slender arms so that she would relax.

As a soldier, Zhai Sheng could, of course, tell whether Qiao Nan was telling the truth. Furthermore, the tiny body in his arms that was extremely soft suddenly turned as stiff as a stone.

If Zhai Sheng did not feel anything, he would be letting down his identity as a soldier. “Yes, it’s quite odd. What do you intend to do?”

Qiao Nan relaxed a little. “I don’t have many plans. I’ve already told Uncle Zhu about this. He should be able to settle this properly.”

“What if Zhu Chengqi can’t resolve it?”

“Look for you.” These three words jumped out of Qiao Nan’s mouth as a matter of course.

The ferocious aura that Zhai Sheng had been keeping a leash on for an entire night after learning about Chen Jun’s appearance completely vanished with the comfort of these three words from Qiao Nan. “Tell me. Do you think it’s because his father wants to be promoted from the deputy commissioner to the commissioner?”

“I think so. I’m not too sure as well. I heard this from my classmates and it may not be accurate. But if I guessed it correctly, Chen Jun certainly wishes to help his father climb up the ranks. His family doesn’t lack money.”

“How did you know that his family doesn’t lack money?” When he heard Qiao Nan’s random understanding of the Chen family, Zhai Sheng could not help feeling jealous.

Qiao Nan raised her voice. “You’re asking this question because you’re not around on the first day of the Lunar New Year. My sister’s eyes are so sharp. She’s a shrew in front of me and a little white rabbit before Chen Jun. I don’t know how to tell from the clothes, but I know how to watch my sister’s expression.”
