MY MILITARY HUSBAND - Season 4 Episode 88

This little girl had no conscience at all.

“I sent it out yesterday!” Qiao Nan stuck out her tongue. “Brother Zhai, I am a high school student now. This is a very crucial time for me. I am very busy with my studies and homework. I don’t even have the time to rest, let alone write you letters. I had to write the letter that I sent to you yesterday in secret.” Otherwise, she would be discovered.

“Is that so?” Zhai Sheng did not believe it. “Did any male students disturb you recently?”

Qiao Nan leaned back and sat down. “Disturbed me? Let me think about it. I’m not too sure about the past, but several people asked me if I wanted to go to the library with them to read books this semester.”

“Are they interested in you?”

“How do you know?” Qiao Nan was shocked. She merely told Brother Zhai that people asked her to go to the library. How did come to this conclusion?

“I am a man, and I am your boyfriend.” Sure enough, many people were eying his wife-to-be.

“Brother Zhai, don’t be anxious. You may know about it, but I was clueless. I really thought that they wanted to go to the library with me. However, I found it a nuisance and refused them. After my classmates’ reminder, I came up with a brilliant plan to solve this problem.” It turned out it was obvious what those male students were after. She was the only one who was clueless.

“Very good. I believe you can handle these things well. Aside from this, do you have anything else to say to me?” It was not enough that Nan Nan had solved this problem. It seemed that he had to find another chance to declare his rights.

“Brother Zhai, how are you doing in the army? Is it very tough?”

Zhai Sheng pulled a long face. “I am in the army. I am well-fed and well-clothed. The hard work is definitely inevitable. Apart from this, what else do you want to tell me?”

Qiao Nan knitted her eyebrows. What else could she say to Brother Zhai? What was it that he wanted to hear?

Zhai Sheng’s expression turned grim at Qiao Nan’s silence.

Even though the two of them were on the phone and Qiao Nan could not see Zhai Sheng’s face, but from his breathing sounds on the other end of the phone, Qiao Nan felt that the atmosphere was a bit odd and suffocating. “Brother Zhai, I have a question for you.”

“Alright.” Zhai Sheng’s voice was so cold that people would freeze from it.

“When a man asks a woman what is it that she wants to tell him, how do you think this woman should answer the man’s question?”

Zhai Sheng pursed his lips. “What is the relationship between this man and woman? You haven’t made it clear. People in different relationships will answer the question differently.”

“They are dating.”

“Are they purely dating? Some couples may be in a relationship today, but they will break up tomorrow.”

Qiao Nan rubbed at her blushing face. “It’s a couple who are dating with the intention of marriage.” This answer should be correct, right?

“Alright.” There was a slight change in Zhai Sheng’s tone. It was like spring had arrived after the harsh winter, and warm was the atmosphere. Apparently, he was pleased with the answer.

Qiao Nan was speechless. If she told Brother Zhai now that in a few years’ time, there would be a lot of couples who married and divorced each other, would Brother Zhai be so angry at her that he would want to strangle her?

“Brother Zhai, so how should the woman answer in such a situation?”

“When an engaged couple has been apart for half a month, and the fiancé asks the fiancée what is it that she wants to tell him, what do you think the fiancé wants to hear from her?”

“I miss you?” Qiao Nan asked tentatively. However, they were only dating. When did they get engaged to each other? When did she become his fiancée? Why did she not know about it?

“You should change your tone. It’s not an interrogative sentence that I want.”

“I miss you!”

“Well, I miss you too.”

Qiao Nan looked upward. It turned out that this was what Brother Zhai wanted to hear.

Since there was another round of silence on the other end of the phone, Zhai Sheng continued, “What else do you want to tell me?”

Qiao Nan knitted her eyebrows, looking awkward. “When are you coming back? I want to meet you?”

Though Qiao Nan used interrogative sentences, the tone was acceptable. Zhai Sheng did not ask that she changed her tone. “Nan Nan, you have to bear in mind that you are a military wife. I am a soldier, and my duty is to protect the country. The earliest that I can go back is in May. During the time that I am away, you must prove that you are worthy of my trust. Do you understand?”

Qiao Nan secretly scolded at Brother Zhai inside her mind. Was he teasing her?

They had turned from a dating couple to an engaged couple, and now she was turned from an ordinary high school student to a military wife?

The jump was too huge!

“Nan Nan?”

“Yes.” Qiao Nan nodded with all her might. “I will definitely be worthy of your trust. But Brother Zhai, I heard that there are female soldiers in your army. In addition to the usual training, weathering the natural elements, and rolling around in the mud, there are also soldiers who specialize in literary or artistic pursuits like dancing, singing, and performing arts. Is that true?”

“Yes, but I never participated in these activities.” Zhai Sheng did not lie. He admitted very straightforwardly that there were such people in the army.

“Very good. Brother Zhai, you must prove yourself to be worthy of my trust and choice as well.” Qiao Nan breathed a sigh of relief. If she was not mistaken, she did not meet Brother Zhai or fall in love with him in the previous life.

She only heard that Zhu Baoguo had died from an accident. She never heard that someone like Brother Zhai stayed single all his life.

When she died, she was almost forty years old. He should be about forty-five years old.

Therefore, in the previous life, Brother Zhai who did not meet her had already married and might have had children with another woman. Qiao Nan was not sure whether this woman was Qiu Chenxi. But if this person was not Qiu Chenxi, then she might be one of the female soldiers in the army.

In this life, her appearance in Zhai Sheng’s life might have destroyed his chances with the woman that he married in the previous life. Qiao Nan could not help but feel uneasy, particularly when she knew that Zhai Sheng might have had children with the woman in the previous life.

Though she and Chen Jun had dated in the previous life, they only held hands at most. But Brother Zhai and the woman had married and had children.

Qiao Nan knew that she should not be bothered about what happened in the previous life. She could not possibly hope that Zhai Sheng remained single for the rest of his life. Besides, her appearance in this life might have destroyed any chances of Zhai Sheng being together with that woman.

To put it bluntly, she snatched Zhai Sheng away from the woman whom he married in the previous life.
