Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

As soon as he sat down, Wei De was anxious. “Hua Hua, haven’t we talked about Wei Wei’s matter long ago? You have also agreed to it, no? Why are you reluctant now?”

“It’s not that I’m reluctant. You can still bring the child here. I’m not stopping you from doing that.”

“Then, what about Wei Wei’s household register and school?”

“You can settle that on your own. You’re his uncle. I’m not related to him in any way. Hence, as I’ve said, it’s not convenient for me to interfere.” Zhai Hua declined.

“How is he not related to you? You’re the biological aunt-in-law of Wei Wei. Can this have nothing to do with you?” Wei De was sullen. Why did Hua Hua’s attitude change? Clearly, Zhai Hua was still very happy when he brought up Wei Wei’s issue previously. At that time, she seemed to be very fond of Wei Wei.

“Biological aunt-in-law?” These three words made Zhai Hua feel most sullen. “Truly biological? You’re his biological uncle?”

Even if it was a biological one, just as Qiao Nan said, children would still compete with and throw tantrums at each other. The problem was how was this child ‘biological’?

Zhai Hua had heard Shi Qing complain about Qiu Chenxi more than once. At that time, she also felt unjustified for Shi Qing and had been consoling her.

The more she recollected on past matters, the more regretful Zhai Hua felt about agreeing to this matter too soon previously.

“Hua Hua, he’s no different from a biological one. Haven’t I told you before? Please don’t mention this in front of the child. The child is innocent, and so is my sister. We can only blame it on them not encountering good parents. Since my family has accepted her, we should not think about all this. If Wei Wei hears it, he will feel very sad. He’s already four years old and knows how to comprehend.” Wei De’s eyes were filled with awkwardness. “Hua Hua, you can’t think in the same way that common folks do. You’re a soldier. Why do you have such thoughts? Where’s your cognitive awareness?”

“It’s been eaten by a dog!” Zhai Hua said without hesitation. “Wei De, do you still remember… I have said before that if I have a child in the future, I will definitely give all my love to my child?”

“Remember, of course I remember. How will I not dote on our own child?!”

“If you keep your ‘biological’ nephew by your side all the time, will you not have any feelings toward him? Our children will you still be able to give all your love to them?”

“…” At this moment, Wei De was at a loss for words.

Since he wanted to take good care of Wei Wei, how was it possible that he would not have any feelings for him? As long as the child was by his side, it would not be easy to retract his feelings as he wished.

“See, you can’t do it. Don’t use the benchmark of a soldier to bind me. If I really use the soldier’s benchmark as a reference, I would have listened to my family and broke up with you.” Based on the requirements of the Zhai family, Wei De did not pass!

Wei De was so furious that he was clenching his fists. The veins on his neck were on the brink of exploding. “Hua Hua, what do you mean? So, you’re prepared to listen to your family and break up with me?”

If that was truly the case, then what would happen to him?!

No, they must not break up!

If he had known that the outcome would be as such by letting Zhai Hua calm down for four to five days, he would have given Zhai Hua ten phone calls a day.

He just did not contact her for a few days, and she had undergone great changes.

Break up?

Zhai Hua gritted her teeth. She really could not bear to do so. She still had a lot of feelings for Wei De. It was just that she could not accept Wei De’s attitude all this while.

Zhai Hua was gritting her teeth. Wei De really believed that Zhai Hua was going to break up with him. He quickly grabbed Zhai Hua’s hands. “Hua Hua, you clearly know that I only want to marry you in my lifetime. Besides you, I don’t want anyone else. For your sake, I have worked so hard for so long. I’ve become an old lad of thirty years old. You’re breaking up with me now. Are you trying to take my life? I’ve been together with you for so many years. I treat you as my precious one and my life. If you break up with me, I’ll lose my life!”

“I’m wrong. I’m really in the wrong. If there’s something that you don’t like, I’ll change. Won’t that do? I won’t break up. I won’t break up with you. If you don’t like Wei Wei, I… I’ll give my mom a call to tell her that we’re not bringing Wei Wei here anymore. Wei Wei is already four years old and he has not seen his dad before. I just feel that he is very pitiful and want to treat him better. I’m good to him but it won’t possibly exceed my love for our children in the future. Every time I was in a phone call with him, I felt bad when Wei Wei asked me how his father looked like. Sometimes, Wei Wei would say ‘I have never seen my dad before, but can I see you?’ When I heard that, I felt even sadder. The child is still so young…”

“Stop saying all these.” Zhai Hua was in a dilemma. When she heard Wei De’s description of Wei Wei, her heart could not help softening. “You’re a man. You have to call the shots for the Wei family. When the two of us are together, you also need to make a decision for many things. If you feel that Wei Wei is very pitiful, just bring him here. It’s just that you have to settle all his matters in Ping Cheng on your own. I can’t help you. You feel that Wei Wei is pitiful but I also have to spare a thought for my parents. They have not even accepted you, and yet, I continuously help you till today. I have to explain to my parents as well. Now, I even have to bother about your non-biological nephew. When others look at it, won’t it seem that I’m at odds with my parents? You’ve done better than me in this aspect. You care very much about your family’s feelings, whereas I’ve been willful.”

She had always felt that her parents and grandfather treated Zhai Sheng better than her. Hence, she had to take charge of her lifetime happiness. She had to find someone that she truly liked.

Zhai Sheng was more strong-tempered than her. Nevertheless, didn’t he and Qiao Nan also work hard together to gradually let their family accept them?

It was so unlike her. All of a sudden, she brought Wei De and appeared. Her family was caught off guard. Unfortunately, Wei De also had to fumble the ball several times.

In comparison to Qiao Nan’s outstanding qualities, if it were her, she would also accept Qiao Nan and not Wei De.

“I have to learn from you and consider more of my family’s feelings. Your mother is not in good health and she has to take medicine regularly. Actually, my mom’s health is also not that good. Her life had been in danger previously when she gave birth to Zhai Sheng. We have to be married eventually but we certainly need to take good care of our family members. This matter is decided as such then. I’m going home. You can decide on Wei Wei’s matter on your own.”

As for breaking up, Zhai Hua eventually could not bring herself to say that.

However, Zhai Hua felt very uneasy about Wei De’s insistence to bring Wei Wei over.

Today, after chatting with Qiao Nan, Zhai Hua became a lot calmer. She began to think about the meaning behind every word that Wei De said to her.

Wei De was clearly aware that at her current age, she was pining for children. He continuously described to her how pitiful Wei Wei, who was fatherless, was. It was hard for her not to soften her stance.

Wei De said all that to aim at this weakness of hers so that she would agree to let Wei Wei come to Ping Cheng.

Qiao Nan was right. If Wei De wanted to let that child come, so be it.

Her relationship with Wei De had not yet been acknowledged by her family. Wei De wanted to take care of this nephew who was not related to him by blood. However, she did not need to do so.
