Chapter 2182: The Children Can’t Do Without a Mom

“The children are just born. They can’t do without a mother’s care. As such, before you leave, you have to consider their future arrangements.”

She was going to die. Qiao Nan was finally going to die. She had waited so long for this day. Perhaps God had arranged so many tribulations for her previously so that she could wait until today. The bitterness she had suffered before wasn’t in vain. She was finally going to make it big.

“Nan Nan, while you still have the strength to speak, remember to make it clear to Zhai Sheng later. Remember, you must persuade Zhai Sheng. Those women outside have a lot of thoughts. Of course, none of them is as reliable as your own family. Nan Nan, in this lifetime, I only have you as a sister. Don’t think of how badly I’ve treated you before. In reality, if I didn’t treat you as family, how would I be like this? Don’t worry. I’ll treat the triplets well, just like how I treat Feng Feng. Nan Nan, you understand what I mean, right? Now, you can only trust me.”

Question marks appeared in Qiao Nan’s eyes. She thought that something had happened to her children. However, from Qiao Zijin’s words, why was it that it seemed like she was waiting for her to give her last words? Also, what exactly did Qiao Zijin mean by those words? What did it mean to have stepparents? Why was it that outsiders weren’t as reliable as her family? Why did Qiao Zijin keep emphasizing their relationship?

Qiao Nan took a deep breath. “What do you mean?”

“Nan Nan, you’re so smart. How can you not understand my meaning? Nan Nan, you’re not going to make it soon. Don’t keep everything to yourself. As long as you arrange everything well, you can swallow your last breath and leave peacefully. If there’s really a next lifetime, I believe that not only would you be able to reincarnate well, but you would also lead a happy life.”

Seeing that there wasn’t anyone else in the ward, Qiao Zijin made it clear to Qiao Nan. “Nan Nan, really. You must consider your children’s future despite the conflicts we had before. Rather than letting Zhai Sheng marry another woman after you’re gone, it would be better if I become your children’s mother. You might not know this, but after you went to Qingshui Town, Mom and I went to find you. Do you know why we did that? It’s all for your happiness.”

Qiao Nan’s head buzzed. After hearing Qiao Zijin’s nonsensical words, Qiao Nan started to understand. Qiao Zijin thought that she was about to die and thus wanted her to quickly say her last words?

Qiao Nan also understood the most important point. Not only did Qiao Zijin thought that she was going to die, but Qiao Zijin even wished for her to tell Zhai Sheng before her death that he should marry her and let her be the mother of her three newborns. After understanding this, Qiao Nan was so angry that she rolled her eyes. If she was really going to die, it would either be Qiao Zijin angering her to death or Qiao Zijin physically crushing her to death.

This meant that Qiao Zijin went to the capital from Ping Cheng and came to see her behind their father’s back because of this. Qiao Zijin felt that she was definitely going to die. After her death, Qiao Zijin could inherit her husband and children and become the chief’s wife? Qiao Nan never would have guessed that Qiao Zijin had this idea. She didn’t expect Qiao Zijin to be so perverse.

How ridiculous. She had never seen anyone more ridiculous than Qiao Zijin. After her death, would she let Zhai Sheng marry Qiao Zijin and let the three children whom she had given birth to with much difficulty call Qiao Zijin ‘mom’? She wouldn’t have died peacefully if she handed her three children over to Qiao Zijin on her deathbed, let alone that she was doing well now. Her triplets were obedient and well-behaved children. Once they grew up with Qiao Zijin, they would only become as perverse as her. How ruthless was she if she were to hand over her biological children to such a person? She’d rather bet her luck on Zhai Sheng and let him find a reliable stepmother for her children than take the initiative and let Qiao Zijin enter the Zhai family.

Who said that she was going to let Zhai Sheng find a stepmother for her triplets? She was well and alive!

“Nan Nan, you don’t know that despite the contradictions, I have you as a sister in my heart. You’re nearing your forties and weren’t married. Upon thinking about this, I feel that I’ve let you down and was ashamed to see you. Although I couldn’t bear to and this decision is like cutting my flesh off, you are my only biological sister. As long as you’re suffering, what is my pain compared to yours? If you hadn’t married Zhai Sheng, I had already persuaded Mom to think of ways to reconnect you with Chen Jun. Chen Jun’s conditions aren’t bad. If you marry Chen Jun, you’d become Mrs. Chen and enjoy your blessings.”

“I’ve long expected this. You’re forty years old this year. Giving birth is simply taking away your life. I don’t know what Zhai Sheng is thinking to have valued the children more than you. In order to have a baby, he completely ignored your life and death. I initially thought that if you married Chen Jun, he didn’t need you to give birth to another child since he already has Feng Feng. You watched Feng Feng grow up since he was young. He’s simply like your child. Nothing is more important than you leading a good life. As such, it would be good for both you and Feng Feng if you marry Chen Jun. Nan Nan, you should understand my heart for you and my words now, right?”

Understood it?

Of course!

Qiao Nan’s heart tightened. She only felt that every breath she took became more difficult. She really didn’t know that Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi had such an idea before. After knowing that Chen Jun had made such a shady deal with Wang Yang before, Qiao Nan always felt disgusted when she thought of Chen Jun.

How would Qiao Nan be together with a man whom she found disgusting and marry him to become his wife? What she couldn’t accept the most was that it was obvious that Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi didn’t have good intentions when they made such an arrangement. Why did they say it so nicely?

Indeed, she was forty years old and it was dangerous for her to give birth. However, if she didn’t give birth, Chen Jun would only have Feng Feng as a son. Would she not have guessed Qiao Zijin’s intention? She was obviously afraid that after Chen Jun married a young woman and said woman gave birth to a child, this child would snatch away Chen Feng’s things.

It didn’t matter that she suffered because she was thinking of her happiness? Nonsense!

Qiao Zijin wanted her to be a free nanny for the rest of her life. She wanted her to take care of Chen Feng on her behalf and even help Chen Feng keep an eye on all of the Chen family’s inheritance. Qiao Zijin wouldn’t rest until she squeezed out every benefit that she could obtain from her.

Qiao Nan only wanted to vomit when Qiao Zijin described how noble she was when her thoughts were, in fact, so selfish.
