Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Panda Novel

Since she had finished dinner, Qiao Nan crossed her arms and looked at Qiao Zijin with a look of indifference in her eyes. “What kind of discussion?”

“I remember Dad said that your English is very good. If you don’t have the ability to do it, it will be very difficult even if someone teaches you. Why don’t we do it this way? I will do the translation. You can help check through and edit those that are translated wrongly or parts that I have trouble translating. We will split the money in half. What do you think?”

Ding Jiayi twitched her mouth as if she wanted to say something. She was very dissatisfied with what Qiao Zijin said.

Since the document was translated by Zijin, and Qiao Nan only helped make some changes, Zijin should have all of the pay. Why did Qiao Nan have the cheek to take half of the money?

But today Ding Jiayi had been ‘disciplined’ by Qiao Dongliang. When she was reminded that Qiao Dongliang had said that he wanted a divorce, Ding Jiayi kept a check on herself and did not say another word.

Qiao Nan knew what was going through Ding Jiayi’s mind, but she paid no attention to her. What mattered to her was Qiao Dongliang’s reaction. She turned to look at him.

Qiao Nan saw that Qiao Dongliang looked calm and did not seem to have any thoughts about this matter. She breathed a sigh of relief. Did it mean that whatever she had said to her father previously was useful, and that he would not side with Zijin anymore?

If it was in the past, her father would have agreed on her behalf and asked her to help and get along with Qiao Zijin.

After all, Qiao Zijin wanted to ‘improve’ and ‘make progress’.

“Nan Nan, what do you think?” Qiao Zijin looked at Qiao Nan smilingly. Her tone was soft and gentle like the spring rain. It was comforting, but to Qiao Nan, she could feel the chill hidden in the spring rain.

“No.” Qiao Nan drank some water. “It’s not that I look down on you, it’s just that you are not able to do it.”

Qiao Zijin hated English to the core. The reason why Qiao Nan took out the document was that she wanted Qiao Zijin to back out of a difficult situation. She never knew that Qiao Zijin would be so shameless.

If she was really only sixteen years old, she might not understand Qiao Zijin’s schemes. But she was almost ‘forty-six years old’, so how could she not see through the traps that Qiao Zijin set?

“Why can’t I do it? Nan Nan, you can’t look down on people!” Qiao Zijin was not convinced. It was not that she was incapable. It was that Qiao Nan refused to help her. She did not want her to earn the money. Qiao Nan did not want her father to know that Qiao Zijin was capable and was as good as Qiao Nan!

To put it bluntly, Qiao Nan could not stand that Qiao Zijin was better and more capable than her!

Qiao Nan kept her cool. She passed a pen to Qiao Zijin calmly. “Since you say that you can do it, try to translate the documents right now.”

Qiao Zijin grounded her teeth. Was Qiao Nan doing this on purpose?

“Give me a minute. Let me get an English dictionary.” She did not believe that she was not as good as Qiao Nan.

“Okay, the whole family is waiting for you.” Qiao Dongliang drank his tea. He wanted to know whether Qiao Zijin had really become sensible and learned the right way.

“Zijin, don’t worry, we have the time. Take your time to translate. Since it’s not an exam, there is no time limit.” Ding Jiayi dared not scold Qiao Nan, so she could only encourage and cheer for Qiao Zijin.

“Mom, I know.” Qiao Zijin sighed. Her mother was right. This was not an exam, and there was no time limit. She could do it slowly. No matter what, she had to do her best now so that she could share half of Qiao Nan’s earnings rightfully.

Qiao Zijin had never been so serious and concentrated on a task before. She flipped the dictionary and wrote down what she found.

Qiao Zijin sat still working on the translation for an entire hour. Her eyes were either staring at the dictionary or the documents. She repeated the same actions for an entire hour.

“Sister, it is eight o’clock now. Okay, you don’t have to translate everything. You can stop translating. Let me take a look.” Qiao Nan yawned and took the documents from Qiao Zijin calmly.

“Oh…” Qiao Zijin turned green, watching helplessly as Qiao Nan took the document back. She did not even have the chance to grab it from her.

Qiao Zijin might have worked at it for an entire hour and wrote down a lot of words, but she did not translate much.

Qiao Nan took out a red pen quietly and started to edit the translation that Qiao Zijin tried hard to finish.

Qiao Nan crossed out a short sentence and wrote the correct translation by the side. Then, she drew a large cross on a long paragraph and did not bother to provide the correct translation.

In the end, Qiao Nan had no choice but to draw circles on the documents.

Qiao Zijin took more than an hour to translate, while Qiao Nan used less than three minutes to read through. “Sister, take a look for yourself. Aside from those that I marked in circles, the rest are wrong. There isn’t a single sentence that was translated accurately. Tell me, are you able to do this job? You say that you will translate, I will help you correct the mistakes, and we will split the money? Sister, are you sure that after you are done with your translation, I only need to make minor changes? Or do I have to redo it again?”

Though Qiao Zijin was very serious and careful, she did not get a single sentence correct. How could she take up the translation work?

Most importantly, Qiao Nan knew that in order to secure the translation job in front of the whole family, Qiao Zijin gave her full attention to translating and worked at it for more than an hour. But when Qiao Zijin landed the job, her attitude would be completely different.

By that time, Qiao Zijin might not even look through the dictionary. She would just grab any book and copy some sentences from the book before handing the translation back to her.

Qiao Zijin never intended to work to earn money. What she had in mind was a way for her to get the money without working!

In the end, the translation would be done by Qiao Nan alone, and yet she had to give half of the money to Qiao Zijin!

Ding Jiayi did not believe in Qiao Nan’s words. She took the documents and saw that it was full of crosses. Only a few areas were circled. “Are you sure that you have not made a mistake? Your sister did not even get a single sentence correct?”

How was it possible? Zijin was one level higher than Qiao Nan. It was impossible that Qiao Nan could translate while she could not. Furthermore, she had done badly for her translations. “Qiao Nan, you can tell your sister the correct translations, and she will write them down. This way, the job is done by both of you. Qiao Nan, yours is a simpler job since you only need to tell Qiao Zijin the translations. The money can be split between both of you.”

“Mom, do you think that one just needs to talk to do a translation? The most important thing is to use one’s brains. I do not need Sister’s help to write these words down. I can do it myself.” Qiao Nan refused immediately.

“You… why are you so stubborn? You do not consider your sister’s feelings. You should help your sister. In the future, your sister will also help you when you need help.”
