Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 1985: Pure Evil

As such, there was no way the Zhai family could have known that such a good young lady like Zijin existed within the quad. In that case, how could she possibly become the Zhai family's in-law?

Unfortunately, it was so near, yet so far. If the Zhai family knew that there was such a good child like Zijin in the quad, she would definitely have become the Zhai family's in-law!

Talking about the pride of the quad, the Zhai family, Ding Jiayi's attitude softened and she no longer acted like a provoked hedgehog who wanted to chase her nosy neighbors out of her house. "Isn't Zhai Sheng divorced?" Those ex-in-laws of the Zhai family were no longer worthy of that title. That was all in the past.

The neighbors laughed in bad faith. "So what if he got divorced? He can only get remarried because he's divorced. We've lived together for so many years! How could you not say a thing when such a joyous occasion is happening? If your family gets too busy, you can always ask us for help! What's there to hide about such a joyous occasion? You should have told us and we would have been happy on your behalf! It hasn't been easy for Nan Nan, and her day is finally coming. She's already an old lady of forty. She's been unmarried all this while, and now that she's getting married, she's getting married to the best person in this entire quad!"

At the mention of Qiao Nan, Ding Jiayi was annoyed. This also made Qiao Zijin, who was about to step out, stop in her tracks. Instead of coming out, she left the door open to eavesdrop on the conversation.

Ding Jiayi furrowed her brows. "You old women are spouting nonsense! What does the Zhai family's joyous occasion have to do with us or that wretched—I mean, Qiao Nan? Why did you bother mentioning Qiao Nan?"

That wretched girl was already forty. If it was not for Zijin's kindness and willingness to give her a chance, that wretched girl would probably become a bag of old bones before she could find a man who was willing to marry her. Humph! She did not even know to cherish such a good sister like Zijin. Where was that wretched girl even hiding now?

If Qiao Nan were to appear after Chen Jun got remarried to some other woman, it would be too late to regret it then.

"It seems like you really don't know anything about it. Or are you trying to hide it from us because you're scared that we'll try to ride on your laurels? Everyone knows about the Zhai family's situation, and it's difficult for our families in the northern courtyard to even enter the southern courtyard. I haven't even been inside myself. Qiao Nan's really impressive. She's the pride of our northern courtyard! Not only did she manage to enter the southern courtyard, but she even managed to stay in the Zhai family's house for a few days. Now that the Zhai family is organizing a wedding, who could it be if not your Qiao Nan? She's such a proper lady, and she even stayed in someone else's house for a few nights. Who would believe that nothing happened? Qiao Nan wouldn't allow herself to be taken advantage of, right?"

Humph! She was already an old lady of forty. How could she be so lucky to enter the Zhai family's house in the southern courtyard? If Qiao Nan really thought that she would be able to become a modern-day Cinderella and have a relationship with the Zhai family, then it would truly be too shameless of her!

Now that the Zhai family was organizing a wedding, Qiao Nan should have some self-awareness and distance herself from the Zhai family instead of adding trouble to the new bride. Someone like that was not likable at all.

It was not just Ding Jiayi. Even Qiao Zijin almost flew into a rage. She had to resist the urge to rush out and confront those neighbors. What did they mean that Qiao Nan had stayed in the Zhai family's house for a few days? When did that happen? Why did she know nothing about that? Besides, when had Qiao Nan gotten to know the Zhai family and gotten so close?

Not only had she managed to enter the southern courtyard, but she had even stayed a few nights at the Zhai family's house! She had never even dreamed of doing such a thing! How could Qiao Nan be so lucky and daring to do something that she had never dared to do?

In that moment, Qiao Zijin had tossed Chen Jun to the back of her mind. Even in another twenty to thirty years, Chen Jun and all his descendants would never climb to a position that could match up to the Zhai family's. As such, Chen Jun was nothing compared to the Zhai family.

If Qiao Nan had known the Zhai family all along, why had she wasted her time and youth on Chen Jun? There was no comparing Chen Jun and the Zhai family. Even if she did not get married to Zhai Sheng, as long as someone in the Zhai family was willing to take her on as a goddaughter, she would have a whole range of men to choose from.

What was different was that those men would never cheat on her like Chen Jun had, and they would even treat her like a queen.

Thinking about how Qiao Nan had deprived her of that happiness, Qiao Zijin was seething in anger. She had always known that Qiao Nan was such an evil and scheming person but her dad had never believed her, even saying that she owed Qiao Nan. Now, he had better open his eyes and see who the one who owed the other was!

Qiao Nan owed it to her! Qiao Nan would never be able to repay her debt in her entire lifetime or even a few lifetimes! Qiao Nan had ruined her biological sister's life!

Unlike the enraged Qiao Zijin, Ding Jiayi was confused but calmed down very quickly. "That's impossible. Don't make up such things. As a mother, I'm much clearer than you are just what kind of person Qiao Nan is. If you want to make a fool of us, you should, at least, come up with something sensible. No one in our family knows the Zhai family."

She could describe that wretched girl's life without even looking at her. She was sure that that wretched girl was busy working. There was no way she would have time to suck up to the Zhai family, much less find a marriage partner, date, or get married.

Zijin was a university graduate. Even if there was such a chance, the one entering the Zhai family's house in the southern courtyard would be Zijin, not that wretched girl. If Zijin had not been able to do so, there was no way that wretched girl would have been able to do it. "Do you think I'm brain-dead? This is just like striking the lottery! But I would have to buy a lottery ticket before I even stand a chance of winning! Since I didn't even buy a ticket, how can I believe you when you say something like that?"

How could she rush up to the Zhai family's house and treat them as in-laws? That was utterly ridiculous! These neighbors were really just waiting to watch a good show for free.

They had been neighbors for decades, but Ding Jiayi had never expected their hearts to be pure evil.
