Chapter 2466 - Panicked (1)
But when Zhai Yaohui first t Miao Jing before the wedding, he no longer had such an intense reaction and slowly cald down. He even followed Old Master Zhai’s instructions and married Miao Jing, even having Zhai Hua within a year.
At the ntion of this, Zhai Yaohui felt that he couldn’t compare with Old Master Zhai.
Old Master Zhai had already known that Miao Jing was the kind of woman that his son liked, was the most suitable for him, and the one who could give his son happiness.
Zhai Yaohui?
Now, Zhai Yaohui didn’t even dare to ntion his ex-daughter-in-law, Qiu Chenxi. It was embarrassing to even ntion her na.
As Old Master Zhai’s son, Zhai Yaohui had repeatedly tried to resist and refuse to marry Miao Jing. But apart from his initial dissatisfaction, he had never done anything too over-the-top. Although he had feelings for Qi Minlan, he had already settled that cleanly before eting Miao Jing.
It was true that n didn’t have sex just because of love. The problem was that the Zhai family’s n would never touch any won they had no feelings for, including those who voluntarily threw themselves at them.
Zhai Sheng’s treatnt of Qiu Chenxi was the proof of this.
Similarly, if Zhai Yaohui had not been satisfied with Miao Jing and didn’t like her as a wife, there was no way Zhai Hua would have arrived in less than a year.
The second year, they had even gotten Zhai Sheng.
From how the children had been born one after another, it was clear that Zhai Yaohui indeed liked Miao Jing whom Old Master Zhai had chosen for him.
But perhaps, Old Master Zhai had set too high a bar by finding Zhai Yaohui such a suitable life partner. Zhai Yaohui thought that he would be able to do what his father had. That was why he had chosen Qiu Chenxi for Zhai Sheng.
Of course, what happened after showed Zhai Yaohui that Old Master Zhai’s success couldn’t be replicated. Besides, he didn’t have as good judgnt and foresight as Old Master Zhai did.
In short, when it ca to matchmaking their sons, he wasn’t as good as his father. It was as simple as that.
If Zhai Yaohui were to have another chance, he would still choose to listen to Old Master Zhai, and get married to Miao Jing. That would never change no matter what.
Because Zhai Sheng was too clear of Zhai Yaohui’s feelings for Miao Jing that he used their relationship as a comparison. “Dad, if Grandpa acknowledged Mom as a goddaughter instead and didn’t stop you from dating Qi Minlan, would you have married Qi Minlan in the end?”
Zhai Yaohui and Zhai Sheng didn’t know that Miao Jing happened to have woken up out of thirst and had overheard the conversation between the father and son. As such, her hand remained on the doorknob without moving.
Miao Jing awaited Zhai Yaohui’s answer nervously. She was sure that Zhai Yaohui had feelings for her. But if not for her father-in-law interfering at that ti, would Zhai Yaohui have married her?
Yes, Miao Jing was already a mother and was even a grandmother in her old age. But as a woman, she still wondered whether she was the most precious woman in her husband’s heart.
Otherwise…
Miao Jing didn’t even want to consider that situation. It wasn’t sothing she could bear.
Miao Jing couldn’t help but laugh bitterly. If given a chance, perhaps, she would have given up on this relationship first and begged Old Master Zhai to help her out in another way.
It had been love at first sight for her, and nothing made Miao Jing happier than knowing that she would be marrying Zhai Yaohui.
It was only after joining the Zhai family and getting to know Zhai Yaohui that Miao Jing started to feel inferior. Not only was she not worthy of Zhai Yaohui, but he also had another woman in his heart.
Most importantly, neither Zhai Yaohui nor Miao Jing knew that Old Master Zhai had never intended to sacrifice his son’s marriage to repay his benefactor.
But when he wanted to repay his gratitude and take care of his benefactor’s daughter by giving her another identity, Old Master Zhai felt that Miao Jing was a very suitable partner for his son, soone whom his son would like.
Based on that feeling, Old Master Zhai changed his mind at that mont and decided to get Miao Jing to marry Zhai Yaohui.
Thankfully, the birth of Zhai Sheng and Zhai Hua proved to Old Master Zhai that his sudden inspiration had been right. Miao Jing was indeed the right daughter-in-law for the Zhai family.
Even until his death, Old Master Zhai had not ntioned this to anyone. Even the two parties concerned knew nothing about how the situation had changed just like that at that ti.
Miao Jing held her breath in, waiting for Zhai Yaohui’s answer.
“No.” There had been a long pause before this answer, so long that Miao Jing felt as though she couldn’t wait for the answer any longer. But Zhai Yaohui replied to Zhai Sheng firmly. The answer was no, even without Old Master Zhai’s arrangent or Old Master Zhai stopping him from eting Qi Minlan.
Unless he had not t Miao Jing and didn’t know anything about Miao Jing’s existence, he would never get together with Qi Minlan no matter who interfered in the matter.
“You might not believe , but it was love at first sight when I t your mother. No, it’s not just you who won’t believe . Even I couldn’t believe it either.”
If he had believed it, Qi Minlan wouldn’t have visited so often, and Qiu Chenxi would never have gotten the chance to cheat on his son. “While your grandpa was alive, he always said that I was a fool. I never admitted to it until…”
Up until the old master passed away, his children had always had a distant relationship with the couple. In the end, when Qiu Chenxi’s scandal broke out, Zhai Yaohui finally understood that the old master hadn’t been wrong calling him a fool.
Zhai Yaohui was worried about Miao Jing and was even blaming Zhai Sheng for getting married late, causing her to worry about not being able to see her grandchildren grow up. It was all because he felt that his mistake had caused him to lose many years with Miao Jing.
By the ti he decided to cherish Miao Jing and treat her well, they were already advanced in age.
Just like how Miao Jing was worried that she wouldn’t be able to watch the three children grow up, Zhai Yaohui was often worried that he wouldn’t have enough ti to treat Miao Jing well to make up for whatever ti they had missed.
In essence, the couple was no different from each other. The difference was that Miao Jing placed her focus on her three grandchildren, while Zhai Yaohui focused on Miao Jing.
