Chapter 2438: Not Blessed (3)
The problem was that once Ding Jiayi opened her mouth, the good atmosphere and feelings were completely destroyed.
She didn’t think about if Ding Jiayi really didn’t understand or that she deliberately pretended not to understand. She let Ding Jiayi sell her character setup as a good mother. Anyway, it depended on Qiao Nan if she wanted to care about her or not.
It wasn’t easy for Ding Jiayi to finally agree to let her go. Qiao Nan was flustered from waiting as well. The moment Ding Jiayi opened her mouth, Qiao Nan left her former residence in a hurry without a second word.
Even if everyone was surprised about the situation today and how Qiao Nan could talk to Ding Jiayi for more than ten minutes, at least they didn’t hear any quarrels before Qiao Nan left.
It was when they saw Qiao Nan’s back view, leaving quickly as if she had seen a ghost, did everyone laugh.
What was fake was fake. Other things could be real or have the chance to become real. However, there wouldn’t be a day that Qiao Nan’s and Ding Jiayi’s mother-daughter relationship would be repaired.
“Mom.”
Once Qiao Nan reached home, San Bao was the first to pounce on her. She rubbed her face against her mom’s thigh. “Where did you go? San Bao misses you.”
When San Bao was obedient, she was definitely a likable child.
She bent down, carried San Bao up, and kissed her. Qiao Nan’s uncomfortable heart felt a little better. “Mom misses the three of you as well. San Bao, kiss me.”
As Qiao Nan’s words fell, San Bao kissed her on both cheeks. After kissing, she was so happy that she kept giggling. This formed a stark contrast with half an hour ago, where she was angry with Zhai Hua for kissing her.
Zhai Hua clutched her heart and started acting. “No, I’m hurt. San Bao, you’ve hurt Aunt. I also need a kiss from you to feel better. Come, give Aunt a kiss.”
San Bao did a funny face at her aunt and wasn’t deceived at all. She acted like a spoiled child and rubbed her face against her mom’s neck. She also held her mom with two hands, refusing to let go.
In an unfamiliar environment, even if her parents told them that this was their house as well, the three children more or less couldn’t adapt well.
In addition, the grandparents and Auntie who had usually taken care of them the most weren’t around. As such, when Qiao Nan left for a longer period of time, the three children became uneasy.
Not only did San Bao cling to Qiao Nan, but Da Bao and Er Bao also ran toward her, following her by the side. They ignored their aunt, who loved to act.
Knowing that her three children were flustered, Qiao Nan sat on the sofa and placed them next to her. She touched their heads, pinched their hands, and kissed their faces until they laughed.
The three children were so obedient to Qiao Nan. Zhai Hua had the urge to vomit blood. “No, I also want to kiss. I also want to kiss.” She was the three children’s aunt. They were related by blood. Why didn’t they allow her to kiss them?
“Aunt’s a big tiger. Mom, protect me.”
San Bao screamed sharply and refused to let Zhai Hua kiss her. She even said that Zhai Hua was a big tiger who caught little children and hid behind Qiao Nan.
Da Bao and Er Bao also laughed and screamed. They hid behind Qiao Nan with San Bao. It was as if they were playing a game of the eagle catching the chicks. Qiao Nan became the mother hen to protect the three children, stopping Zhai Hua from bullying them.
As they played, the three children’s feelings of unease were suppressed well. In the face of this unfamiliar house, the three children no longer rejected it as obviously as before.
However, with the triplets’ uneasy performance, Qiao Nan decided to let them sleep with her and Zhai Sheng tonight. She was worried that they would be frightened if they had nightmares in the middle of the night and couldn’t find her and Zhai Sheng.
Children who had just woken up were easily confused. They would have been frightened from the nightmare to begin with. When they wake up and see that they weren’t at home, they couldn’t help but wonder if they were abandoned by their parents.
Zhai Sheng naturally didn’t object to Qiao Nan’s insistence.
These three children were indeed capable of setting their dad up. However, who asked them to be his children? If he didn’t dote on them, who would? He could only pamper them.
Knowing that they could sleep with their parents tonight and their dad had agreed to it, the three children’s mood became better. They suddenly felt that not only was this ‘new home’ not scary, but it was pretty good, as they could sleep with their parents.
No matter how much Zhai Hua acted pitiful, pretended to cry, and insisted on sleeping with one of the triplets, the three children expressed that they weren’t willing to be fooled.
Their dad even responded rarely that whoever wanted to sleep with their aunt at this moment would be a fool.
The three children might not know that opportunities do not wait. However, they had learned this themselves even without anyone’s teaching.
Seeing how the triplets were firmly attached to their parents and refused to let go, Zhai Hua was so angry that she clutched her chest and scolded the three children for lacking conscience. They didn’t sympathize with her at all.
In the end, the three children called her softly before following their parents back to the room to sleep. They were also tired. Without much coaxing, the three children slept soundly and even started to snore. The hectic day was finally over.
“How was your trip back today?”
The children were asleep. It was naturally the time for Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng to have conversations at night.
They slept on the far side of the bed and guarded the three children between them. This made Zhai Sheng want to hug his wife. In the end, he could only make do by hugging one of his sons.
Qiao Nan smiled. “Qiao Zijin’s leading a life with Chen Feng now. The Qiao family’s courtyard hasn’t changed. When there were four people living in this house, she always found it squeezy and that there were not enough rooms in the house. Now that she’s alone, she knows how big the house is.”
Even if Ding Jiayi didn’t like her, once she saw her return, how could she hide the emotional change in her eyes from Qiao Nan? Qiao Nan had long seen through her.
“She asked a lot of questions about the triplets and even wanted to meet them. I rejected her and dug out a bunch of photos and videos from my mobile for her. I think she wants to contact my dad and chat with him about the triplets so that they could have more common topics between them.”
In order to reconcile with her dad, Ding Jiayi was willing to try and use any method. Ding Jiayi had not given up yet after more than a year had passed. She was still trying ways to have a breakthrough.
“That’s what she has in mind?” After knowing what the other party was thinking, Zhai Sheng’s looks became better.
