Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Chapter 2132 - Obvious

Chapter 2132: Obvious

Qiao Zijin had scored zero, while Qiao Nan had scored full marks.
Yes, Qiao Dongliang felt as though he had been struck by lightning and that his whole life was crumbling apart now that he was faced with such a result.
Qiao Dongliang knew that all three of them in this family, including him, were to be blamed for such a result. No one could shy away from that. At this time, Qiao Dongliang could not even feel any anger about the parcels that had been returned.
“Dad, there’s no need for you to struggle about it. You’ll never be a good dad in Qiao Nan’s eyes. It’s just that she won’t take issue with it anymore. We all treated Qiao Nan the same in the past, so it’s better for us to band together for a common goal. Dad, there’s no one who’s closer to you than me now. Think about how you treated Qiao Nan in the past. She’s not a saint either. I’m sure you know how she treated me and Mom.”
“The reason she’s willing to have contact with you is to divide the three of us. Look how smart Qiao Nan is. Not only is she good at her studies, but she’s scheming too. Ever since the three of us had a falling out, Qiao Nan has been living a peaceful life with no one creating any trouble for her. No matter how hard her family has it, it has nothing to do with her. That’s because she knows that her dad is helping her keep her sister and her mom in line!”
“That’s right!” Ding Jiayi agreed right away. “Old Qiao, you have to believe me and Zijin. We will never lie to you or give up on you. The three of us are truly a family.”
Once Zijin said that, she realized that that did seem to be the case. It was Qiao Nan who had wrecked their family of three and had purposely driven a wedge between her and Old Qiao. No wonder Old Qiao had insisted on getting a divorce from her and had refused to share a bed with her. It must have been that wretched girl, Qiao Nan, who instructed Old Qiao to do all these things.
Ding Jiayi broke out in a cold sweat upon learning about just how evil and vicious Qiao Nan was. She did not even let her own family off the hook! Even when Qiao Nan had taken all of the family’s money when Qiao Zijin had been at her lowest, Ding Jiayi had simply thought of Qiao Nan as a heartless child.
But in an instant, Ding Jiayi had ‘realized’ that her daughter, Qiao Nan, was truly a devil! The former Qiao Nan had never been aggressive, whereas the latter Qiao Nan was pure evil!
Thinking about how scary and terrible Qiao Nan was, Ding Jiayi could not help but support Qiao Zijin. “Zijin, that wretched girl, Qiao Nan, almost caused your dad and me to get a divorce! Should we distance ourselves from her in the future?”
Why had Ding Jiayi been so unscrupulous in helping Qiao Zijin at the expense of Qiao Nan? It was not only because she had been the one to give birth to Qiao Nan. It was also because Ding Jiayi knew that no matter how angry Qiao Nan got, the most she would do was to refuse to help out or to ignore them. There was no way someone as softhearted as Qiao Nan would be able to fight back and hurt them.
She knew clearly that there was no opportunity cost involved in dealing with Qiao Nan. In fact, they might even benefit from it if they were successful. As such, Ding Jiayi unhesitatingly sacrificed Qiao Nan to reach her own goals.
But now that Qiao Nan had become aggressive and would attack her, Ding Jiayi could not help but be afraid.
Hearing Ding Jiayi jumping in to create trouble, Qiao Zijin wanted very much to kick Ding Jiayi in the foot. She had only said such things to appease her dad. She had never expected her mom to believe what she had said and to be so frightened. Between her mom and Qiao Nan, who was the mother and who was the child? The situation seemed to be reversed. Why was the mother so afraid of her daughter?
If it was indeed true that Qiao Nan had such intentions and could harden her heart to do such things to the Qiao family, she would never have the guts to dream of taking Qiao Nan’s things without thinking of Qiao Nan’s feelings. If that were really the case, would she dare to unscrupulously snatch everything away from Qiao Nan for herself just based on the fact that she was related to Qiao Nan?
It was only because Qiao Nan had such a good temper that she was able to treat Qiao Nan so mercilessly. Was her mother so ignorant about the kind of daughter she had given birth to? Her mom was truly a novice!
After silently scolding Ding Jiayi in her heart, Qiao Zijin looked straight at Qiao Dongliang. There was no use in Ding Jiayi believing her. Qiao Dongliang had to believe her too. Only then would they be able to align their goals to fulfill her dream.
Why had she not thought about that earlier? Kinship was utter nonsense! As long as their interests were aligned and they were in the same boat, she would not need to waste so much effort trying to please her dad. Her dad would naturally be on her side, helping her scheme against Qiao Nan too.
“Old Qiao, did you hear what Zijin said? I used to tell you that Qiao Nan wasn’t a good person but you didn’t believe me. You even tried to speak up for her. Now that Zijin has said it, you should believe me now. We still have a long way to go. We can’t afford to be deceived by that wretched girl, Qiao Nan! She doesn’t have any good intentions toward her own family. The three of us are a real family.”
Qiao Nan had already been so heartless toward them while Zijin had wholeheartedly thought about taking care of Qiao Nan’s three children after she passed away. Was it not obvious enough which of their daughters had a conscience?
If not for the Zhai family’s background, those three children would never have the good fortune of meeting such a kind stepmom even after having such an evil and wicked mother. Like father like son, like mother like daughter.
That would not do. She would have to have a good chat with Zijin later so that she would not treat the three children too well once she married into the Zhai family. Otherwise, the three children might grow up to be as evil as Qiao Nan and misunderstand that Zijin had snatched everything away from Qiao Nan.
Actually, it would be enough as long as the three children did not starve to death or accidentally die. They should just grow up to be normal. Otherwise, they might cause trouble for Zijin and Feng Feng if they were to be too outstanding. As expected, they could scheme against others, but it was definitely not fine for others to do the same to them.
