Chapter 1391 Might Part Ways Eventually

Qiao Nan lowered her eyes. “That is a good date. Since she is getting married, as her relative, I will still give her the necessary wedding gift. But she will never get more than necessary.” Although Qiao Nan would give her a monetary gift, it would not be a large amount.

When she got married, Qiao Zijin did not give her a single cent.

Therefore, Qiao Nan had decided that the monetary gift that she gave Qiao Zijin would only be slightly more than the usual. It was just so that it would look good on both of them, but she would not give any more than that. Qiao Nan did not care if Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin would be satisfied with the amount or not.

Instead of wasting her time on Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin, Qiao Nan would rather spend time to think about how she should deal with Deng Wenchang after she went to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs tomorrow.

Qiao Nan had been thinking whether she should find a chance to spot Deng Wenchang’s mistake and send him out of the ministry. Up until today, Peng Yu still had not given up on arranging for Deng Wenchang to have a permanent spot in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. She wondered what he had in mind.

Since Peng Yu highly valued Deng Wenchang, even if he might be using the diversion tactic, Qiao Nan would fight Deng Wenchang until the end. “By the way, Brother Zhai, did you see Zhu Baoguo and Shi Qing before you came back this time? Don’t tell me that they had returned to Ping Cheng?” She had graduated from college, while they had realized their dreams earlier than her, joining the army as soldiers.

All these years, Qiao Nan had frequent contact with Shi Peng and his wife, but she had never visited the Shi family’s residence. She had never once spoken to the legendary Old Master Shi.

Feng Cheng used to be very close to the Feng family. She would listen to them regardless of what they told her. They also told her that Shi Qing should listen to her and behave herself and do things that would please her.

When Shi Peng and his wife first moved to the capital, Feng Cheng was still used to listening to the Feng family.

Shi Qing was in PLA National Defence University. What she did not know could not hurt her. However, Shi Peng could not stay nonchalant. As he had more contact with the Feng family, he was thankful that despite having such a parental family, his wife did not go down the wrong road.

Since Feng Cheng was a girl, the Feng family did not educate her to behave in the same manner as them. They only told her to listen to whatever they said, instilling in her the idea that the Feng family always had her best interests at heart. Thankfully, they did not teach her the wrong ways. Otherwise, Shi Peng feared that their marriage might not last.

Whenever he thought of the possibility that they might end up in a divorce, Shi Peng could not help but break out in cold sweat for Feng Cheng.

He used to think that with Qi Minlan around, the Shi family was a dangerous spot, and Feng Cheng, who was pure and simple, could not survive there. But in fact, the Feng family was in a similar situation as the Shi family. During the times when he was in Ping Cheng, his wife would stay with the Feng family. Now that he thought about it, it was very risky. It was tantamount to walking on a tight-rope.

After he realized the risk, he would have made an effort to widen the distance between Feng Cheng and the Feng family. Initially, Feng Cheng was unhappy. After listening to her family, she had the notion that Shi Peng felt arrogant as he was transferred to the capital based on his own effort and thus looked down on her family, thinking that they were of no help to him.

Shi Peng stopped Feng Cheng from being close to the Feng family because he shunned the Feng family as they were poor and he feared that they would bask in his glory.

Shi Peng felt wronged and unjustified.
