Chapter 1010 Did Not Fancy Him
On the account of his relationship with Zhai Hua, they had almost sold them to Wei De at cost price.
Fortunately, as birds’ nests were expensive, no matter how filial he was, Wei De did not buy too much all at once.
He had spent three thousand yuan to buy a gift hamper with two hundred grams of birds’ nest. He then sent it to his hometown.
Clearly, she was the one who helped Wei De earn money. However, Wei De spent all of them on Wei Wei and his family in his hometown. On the contrary, she had never received any gift that cost more than two hundred yuan from Wei De.
Zhai Hua felt that she was very sorrowful and pitiful in her relationship with Wei De.
In fact, Wei De had been quite obvious in his actions. Why hadn’t she seen through him all this while? It was as if a ghost was covering her eyes and she was in self-denial.
Zhai Hua’s character was more like a man. She disliked wearing dresses since she was young. The first dress of her life was a gift from Wei De and she had worn it for him.
At the sight of the dress in the closet that she once treated as a treasure, Zhai Hua could not help touching her forehead. Was the word ‘moronic’ engraved on it?
Wei De had such intentions. His gifts were inexpensive but could not hide his motive either.
After tidying up for some time, she searched out one large box of gifts from Wei De.
At the sight of these items, Zhai Hua sneered continuously. “Mom, that’s all. At the very least, there’s nothing else from him in this house anymore. Later, I will get someone to return these things to Wei De.”
“Aye, okay.” How could Miao Jing object to this? She could not wait for her daughter to have a clean break with Wei De.
As she sized up the items in the box, Miao Jing sighed continuously. These items were not valuable and she would never touch them anyway.
It was not a problem if the gifts were inexpensive. Most importantly, it was the thoughts that counted.
Hua Hua would not like many of the items in the box at all. Hadn’t Wei De been too slipshod in choosing the presents?
Zhai Hua could tell that Miao Jing’s eyes were filled with dissatisfaction. She gave a grim smile. She really could not tell her mother with her own mouth that Wei De’s perfunctory behavior was an outcome of her over-indulging him.
When they first got together, Wei De did spend more effort on buying gifts for her. Although the gifts were not expensive, they would definitely delight Zhai Hua.
However, as time passed, Wei De’s patience began to run out. Wei De continued with the practice of buying her gifts. However, he did not spend that much effort to pick and choose them.
During the first time that he did that, Wei De even observed Zhai Hua’s reaction carefully.
If Zhai Hua were to feel displeased or unsatisfied, he would certainly change then.
The problem was that Zhai Hua was very ‘understanding’ to Wei De during the first time that it happened. She even expressed that she would like whatever Wei De gave her.
With Zhai Hua’s words of ‘assurance’, Wei De felt that he had been granted amnesty. He no longer cared about choosing presents for Zhai Hua. As long as the price was not too cheap, he would immediately buy anything that he casually grabbed or conveniently sighted. Thereafter, he would ‘dump’ them to Zhai Hua.
Zhai Hua took a deep breath. “Mom, let’s go outside. Qiao Nan is still waiting for us.”
“Right, let’s go outside. I remember that it’s almost the end of the semester, right? Nan Nan did not even come back during National Day. Why would she have time to come back today?” Miao Jing realized that Qiao Nan’s appearance in the house of the Zhai family today was abnormal.
Carrying that huge box, Zhai Hua forced a smile. “Most likely, Qiao Nan had guessed my situation and took a leave to come back.”
“This child…” Qiao Nan cared so much for the Zhai family and Zhai Hua, this sister-in-law. Of course, Miao Jing was pleased.
From Wei De’s matter, it was not difficult for Miao Jing to predict that Zhai Sheng was the only one who would become extremely successful in the future. When she and Zhai Yaohui were no longer around, Zhai Hua would need Zhai Sheng, the younger brother, to take care of her.
If Qiao Nan and Zhai Hua were close, Miao Jing did not need to worry about whether Zhai Hua would lead a good life after she and Zhai Yaohui were gone.
“Hua Hua, Nan Nan is a good child.” At the thought of this, Miao Jing persuaded Zhai Hua and hoped that her daughter could become closer with her future daughter-in-law.
In terms of capability, her daughter could not be compared to her son. In terms of intelligence, she could not be compared to her daughter-in-law.
As such, besides her son, her daughter-in-law would definitely have to take care and keep a watch on her daughter, lest the latter continue to suffer from ‘poor eyesight’.
“Mom, you don’t have to tell me. I understand. Nan Nan is a good lady.” Zhai Hua was very sincere when she said that. Qiao Nan had felt that Wei De was odd and was keeping a watch on him. She even found some clues from her and Wei De’s photos.
Given her feelings toward Wei De, it was completely possible for Wei De to deceive her into marriage.
If she really were to marry Wei De and then found out how lousy Wei De was thereafter, her whole life would be ruined then.
Without Qiao Nan, it was certainly impossible for her to be able to climb out of a huge fire pit like Wei De.
In the past, she had even shunned Qiao Nan because of Wei De. She watched on when Qiao Nan was bullied by others and developed negative opinions of Qiao Nan. On the contrary, Qiao Nan helped her wholeheartedly in Wei De’s matter. At the thought of this, Zhai Hua felt so embarrassed that she wanted to slap her own face.
“I’m glad that you know.” Miao Jing let down her shoulders that she had been holding up stiffly.
True enough, as long as Hua Hua left Wei De, she could revert to that intelligent, sensible, and understanding Hua Hua in the past.
After they came out, Zhai Hua placed a huge box of items on the coffee table. “These are all the thrash that Wei De gave me. Zhai Sheng, help me get someone to return them.”
“Fine.” Zhai Sheng did not reject her request. There was a flash in his eyes. “Leave it to me to settle this. Will you mind whatever I do with them?”
Zhai Hua sat down sullenly. “Don’t need to test me. When I say that I have broken up with Wei De, I have really broken up with him. I am not together with him or related to him anymore. I won’t bother about how you return the items to Wei De. It’s not that I still have feelings toward him. I have been deceived so badly. I can’t wait for his life to be in shambles.”
Wei De’s matter was simply the greatest humiliation in her life.
Zhai Sheng felt more at ease now. He then made a call to get someone to bring away the box of items.
When this person arrived at the entrance of Wei De’s big company, there was a ‘lively’ situation.
Zhai Hua was loyal and had a sense of justice. She was also good-tempered. Hence, she did not lack any buddies.
Previously, with that one phone call of Zhai Hua, people immediately guided Wei De along in his business. In a short time span of a few days, Wei De transformed from being in an impoverished state to being quite asset-rich.
It was not easy to make money. Nevertheless, was it also not easy to become broke?
Wei De could still put on a false front in front of Zhai Hua but he could not help giving himself away when he was with Zhai Hua’s childhood friends.
He had thought that everyone was men and that they should understand one another. When they were out for client meetings, Wei De often imitated the television shows and requested for bar girls to keep him company. The seat beside him was never empty.
