Chapter 1103 Father and Son-In-Law Competition
Well, today, Zhai Sheng was the groom and she was the bridesmaid involved in the gatecrashing.
Today was the time to requite like for like.
Seeing that his daughter was having so much fun, Shi Peng felt helpless and rubbed his forehead. This disciple of his did not have a very good temper. He would not seek revenge for the slightest grievance but he was certainly not very benevolent.
He hoped that his daughter knew her limits and would not go overboard.
Otherwise, if Zhai Sheng were to recall this and seek revenge later on, his foolish daughter would be the one down on her luck.
Shi Qing was also a smart and eccentric one. She not only requested Zhai Sheng to do a hundred push-ups but also shot him many strange questions and insisted Zhai Sheng to reply in front of everyone.
Fortunately, Zhai Sheng was a soldier and extremely fit. Otherwise, the one hundred push-ups would possibly ruin the wedding, let alone those strange questions that Shi Qing posed.
After she was stuffed with a big red packet, Shi Qing knitted her brows and opened the door reluctantly.
First, there was not much time left.
Second, Shi Qing’s brainpower was limited. She could not think of further questions to continue to make things difficult for Zhai Sheng.
“This is the last stage. Please find the shoes of the bride.” When she said that, Shi Qing raised her brows. Obviously, the hiding place of this pair of shoes was Shi Qing’s last magic weapon.
One round of fight, one hundred push-ups and a place full of crowd. Even though the weather was chilly in spring, Zhai Sheng was also perspiring profusely.
Zhai Sheng’s thin lips formed a straight line. He gave a grim smile as he glanced at Shi Qing, giving a very obvious threat.
When one was out in society, she had to pay back what was owed eventually.
Shi Qing was not married yet. However, today’s matter had destined that Shi Qing’s other half would be very unlucky on the day of her marriage.
Until the arrival of that day, Zhai Sheng discovered that he had dealt with his two enemies together in one day!
Zhai Sheng’s time in the army was not spent in vain. He did not have many capabilities but superb observation skills.
Many people were looking on as they crowded outside the bridal chamber. Zhai Sheng looked as if he was searching for Qiao Nan’s shoes in the room, but in fact, his pair of eyes was staring at Shi Qing all the time to observe her reaction.
When he was searching all around, Shi Qing looked very arrogant and her ‘tails’ almost touched the sky. Zhai Sheng’s expression looked more at ease then. He was no longer searching at the four corners of the room. Instead, he searched for the shoes on the bed that Qiao Nan was sitting on.
All of a sudden, there was a flash of anxiousness in Shi Qing’s eyes.
When Zhai Sheng’s hands reached the surface of the bed, Shi Qing looked more at ease again.
As such, Zhai Sheng did not even need to test Shi Qing the third time. He walked in front of Qiao Nan and gently lifted a little of the rim of the wedding dress that Qiao Nan was wearing.
True enough, wasn’t there a pair of red shoes hidden under Qiao Nan’s pair of fair and tiny feet?
This hiding place was really shrewd! It was completely concealed.
“Crap!” Looking at her watch, Zhai Sheng only spent less than three minutes to find this pair of shoes. Shi Qing was still very pleased with herself earlier as she felt that this was the greatest tactic. “Brother Zhai, did you cheat?”
Upon saying that, Shi Qing even cast a suspicious look at Qiao Nan.
However, Qiao Nan had a red veil covering her head at this moment and she could not see Shi Qing. She could guess some of Shi Qing’s thoughts from the latter’s tone though.
“Hahaha, bridesmaid. This won’t do. The bride is just sitting there. She can’t even move. It’s impossible for her to provide any hint to the groom. All of us are watching.”
“The groom is really brilliant.”
“Groom, quickly help the bride wear the shoes. It’s time to carry her to your house!”
Zhai Sheng was also anxious at heart. When he heard that, he glanced coldly at Shi Qing and expressed that today’s matter was not considered over. He then knelt, held Qiao Nan’s feet, and helped her wear the shoes. “It’s winter now. Why aren’t you wearing any socks?” Zhai Sheng’s heart ached. He could feel that Qiao Nan’s feet were cold when he touched them.
Zhai Sheng’s heart ached. Of course, he blamed it on Shi Qing again.
“It’s warmer inside the house. It’s… alright.” Qiao Nan, whose head was covered by a red veil, could not see very clearly. She could only see a faint figure.
Her eyes could not see well. As such, her other senses became more sensitive.
In contrast with Qiao Nan’s cold feet, Zhai Sheng’s entire body felt so hot since he had been fighting and doing push-ups.
Her cold feet were held by Zhai Sheng. Qiao Nan felt itchy and embarrassed. If not for the fact that she was aware that many people were watching them, and the earlier she wore the shoes, the better, she would not be able to control her desire to hide.
“Come, let’s go.” After helping Qiao Nan wear the pair of shoes, Zhai Sheng carried Qiao Nan swiftly. His posture of carrying her in his arms was perfect.
At the sight of this, the men blocking the entrance whistled. When the ladies heard that, they could not stop laughing while covering their mouths.
After leaving the bridal chamber, they went to the living room. Two men were already sitting in the hall. One of them was Qiao Dongliang and the other Zhu Chengqi. As for Ding Jiayi, there was no place for her today.
Immediately, someone took out two soft cushions and placed them on the floor. Zhai Sheng and Qiao Nan took a cushion each and knelt.
Qiao Dongliang took a deep breath. There were tears in his eyes. “Zhai Sheng, henceforth, I will hand Nan Nan over to you. You are also aware. Nan Nan did not have a good life in the past. I am aware too. But I have never done well enough. Don’t be like me. Nan Nan and you have to live on well.”
She was married. She was truly married.
After today, Nan Nan would belong to the Zhai family. She would not be his daughter anymore.
At the thought of this, Qiao Dongliang felt his heart ached. It was as if a chunk of flesh had been cut from his heart.
Unfortunately, he had to part with her no matter how much he could not bear to.
“Dad, don’t worry. I won’t let anyone, including myself, bully Nan Nan.” Of course, that would include the father-in-law sitting right before his eyes.
Zhu Chengqi did not show much expression, his eyes looking sharp and stern. “Bully? It is not so easy to bully my family.”
Zhu Chengqi was different from Qiao Dongliang. If the Zhai family were to bully Qiao Nan, Zhu Chengqi definitely had the capability to seek justice for Qiao Nan. He was unlike Qiao Dongliang, who could only say a few useless words and would be of no help at all.
It was easy for one to have a change of heart. Who did not know how to speak pleasant words? Zhu Chengqi believed in his own capability more.
In the face of absolute power, one had to go through him first if they had the gumption to treat his words as a fart.
As such, although Qiao Dongliang sounded like a benevolent father, this biological father paled in comparison to Zhu Chengqi and his words.
“Thank you, godfather, for your reminder.” He had been threatened. Zhai Sheng’s brows moved slightly but he did not lose his temper.
“The auspicious time has arrived. Groom, quickly fetch your bride home.”
The fathers and son-in-law trio looked indifferent as they had exchanges with one another.
