Chapter 1726: To Laugh or To Cry

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The problem was that between the two children, Gao Yan had been the one who stepped into the pit first. Thus, it was not Fang Fang who had been coaxed to no end. On the contrary, it had been Gao Yan who was whipped for Fang Fang.

Because of this, Gao Yan finally got his wish and married a beauty. They even had a son like Gao Feng.

At this time, Gao Yan showed off his talent of being able to deceive Fang Fang, successfully winning some time for the couple to spend together alone.

When Qiao Nan heard about the matter from Gao Feng who had come to visit her, her eyes widened in shock. “What did you just say? I didn’t hear you clearly. Can you repeat yourself?”

“Auntie Qiao...” Gao Feng was embarrassed. He had gone all out for his first relationship, but the girl whom he had chosen so carefully had been so fickle. She was dating him and was spoiled by him, but she had another man in her heart. What Gao Feng could not accept was that his girlfriend had set her sights on his own elder brother whom he adored and respected. He was too embarrassed to repeat what he had just said, much less in the presence of Auntie Qiao. Auntie Qiao might as well use a block of tofu to kill him!

Qiao Nan rubbed her forehead. “Fengfeng, don’t get upset. Perhaps, it’s because Auntie Qiao has been busy with work and has gotten too confused. I apologize if I wasn’t able to consider your feelings.”

“Auntie Qiao, it’s not that serious. I’m not that weak.” This time, Gao Feng was shocked. He knew that his dad seemed to dislike Auntie Qiao on the surface, but in fact, his dad had always told him that there was only one woman whom he respected in his whole life: Auntie Qiao.

As for his mom, that went without saying. She was a true fan of Auntie Qiao.

He was younger than Auntie Qiao, and Auntie Qiao had not even said anything wrong. If he dared to accept Auntie Qiao’s apology, his parents would definitely gang up to get rid of him once they found out about this matter.

“Hold up.” Qiao Nan took a sip of water. “Fengfeng, I hope you won’t get angry. It’s just that there’ve been too many things going on lately. You said earlier that your girlfriend and her mom already have someone in mind. Who’s their target?” She was beginning to suspect that she was having auditory hallucinations because of that incident with Zhou Xing and her second son.

Logically, since something like that had already happened to Er Bao, it was only expected that Da Bao would be next.

“Auntie Qiao, it’s true. My ex-girlfriend and her mom have set their sights on Brother Da Bao. I heard that that auntie is clear about the Zhai family’s background and knows the kind of influence Uncle Zhai has in the army. That was why she asked her daughter to set her eyes on Brother Da Bao.”

But that mother had never expected that the daughter whom she had groomed had not even entered university but had already found a boy who was not her target to get into a relationship, and they seemed to be in quite a serious relationship. “Auntie Qiao, don’t worry. Brother Da Bao is not such a muddleheaded person. I think that even if Brother Da Bao knows nothing about what went on between me and her, she would never be the kind of person that Brother Da Bao would fall for. When Brother Da Bao learns about her past relationship with me, more so would Brother Da Bao reject her.”

In his mind, his elder brother Da Bao had always been very rational and self-controlled since he was young.

Whether it was based on the person or the incident, he could not picture his elder brother Da Bao ever falling into Ma Yuanyuan’s trap.

“Ma Yuanyuan. That’s such a coincidence.” Qiao Nan heard that the young lady not only knew about her family background but had even set her goal on her eldest son. Then, she thought again about the surname ‘Ma’. There was something that made Qiao Nan feel slightly uneasy and suspicious. “Do you know who Ma Yuanyuan’s parents are? Or what their names are?”

Could there be such coincidences in this world? But if it was not a coincidence, how would that pair of mother and daughter be so clear about the Zhai family’s situation? The Zhai family was indeed quite famous within the country, but they were not so well-known that everyone should know of the Zhai family’s situation so clearly.

If it was so easy to inquire about the Zhai family, Peng Yu would never have spent so much time and effort on doing so. Now, his son was already in junior high school, but he had yet to complete his original mission. It was definitely no mean feat to find out about the Zhai family.

Seeing Qiao Nan getting nervous, Gao Feng frowned. “What’s wrong, Auntie Qiao? Do you know Ma Yuanyuan’s family?” He had grown up under Auntie Qiao’s watch since he was a child. Auntie Qiao had always been gentle and organized when doing things. His mom even said that a person like Auntie Qiao’s was the best because she was not impatient at all.

His mom had even said that perhaps it was because he had grown up with Auntie Qiao that he did have some similarities with her in this aspect. But Auntie Qiao’s current expression was one that he had never seen before.

“If you don’t, then do you know what Ma Yuanyuan’s mom is called?” It was not at all weird to share the same surname. There were only a few hundred surnames in the whole of China, after all. It would not be uncommon to share a surname. Even sharing names was not uncommon. But if both her father’s and mother’s name were the same, then it would definitely not be as simple as a coincidence.

“I think her surname is Qiu, but I’m not too sure about her full name.” Gao Feng answered honestly.

Both he and Ma Yuanyuan were still young. Even though they had started dating secretly during such a sensitive time in high school, they had not done anything too crazy. Of course, if they needed to be so secretive with something like holding hands, meeting their parents was still a matter of years away.

Even the surname of Ma Yuanyuan’s mom was only revealed by a slip of Ma Yuanyuan’s tongue. When Ma Yuanyuan occasionally complained about her mom’s high expectations of her, she had once mentioned that ‘Old Qiu’. “If I’m not wrong, Ma Yuanyuan’s mom works in the government sector too.”

After learning about that, Gao Feng had thought that there would be no obstacles to his relationship with Ma Yuanyuan. He did not care about Ma Yuanyuan’s family background, but what if his parents did? As long as Ma Yuanyuan’s family background was all right, there would be no major problems if he wanted to get together with Ma Yuanyuan in the future.

Because of this, Gao Feng still had this impression of Ma Yuanyuan’s family situation. Otherwise, Gao Feng would not even be able to answer Qiao Nan’s sudden question today.

After receiving such an answer, Qiao Nan did not know whether to laugh or to cry. She had really guessed so. The Zhai family’s background was undoubtedly good. Excellent, indeed.
