Chapter 2346 - Dying? What A Joke! (2)
Qiao Nan's eyes lit up and she planted a kiss on Zhai Sheng's lips. "Dear, you're the best! You hit bull's-eye!"
Zhai Sheng, who had received two kisses, was not at all satisfied. In fact, his desire had only gotten stronger. His hands quickly removed Qiao Nan's clothes as well as his own. "If that's great, there's something even better!"
"Mm…"
Qiao Nan's eyes widened as she thought about how this man was a wolf. As for whether it was good, the exhausted Qiao Nan could only think about breaking this 'stick' in front of her.
It was rare for Wang Yang to have come to such a decision about the Zhu family's assets. The second day, Qiao Nan crawled out of bed with much difficulty. Although she had no classes, she was sure that the triplets would kick up a fuss if they didn't see their mother. Having finally coaxed the three children, Qiao Nan was just about to settle her first meal for the day when she received a call from the lawyer. "Hello, Madam Qiao? I have a piece of good news for you. I just received a call from the court. The other party has withdrawn the lawsuit. From now on, Chief Zhu's will will be valid. Congratulations on inheriting the Zhu family's assets. If you are free, please come to our office and handle the paperwork."
"Alright, I understand. Thank you. I'll head there tomorrow to get the paperwork done." After hanging up, Qiao Nan kissed San Bao's chubby face. It was good news that the lawsuit had finally come to an end.
San Bao was elated at being kissed by her mom and she grabbed onto Qiao Nan's face with her chubby hands, insisting on returning the kiss.
Seeing that, Da Bao and Er Bao hurried over. Since their younger sister had kissed their mom, they had to do so too. In the blink of an eye, the mother and children were bunched up together, kissing each other's faces.
Since Wang Yang had withdrawn his lawsuit, it was naturally much easier for Qiao Nan to inherit all of the Zhu family's assets. She had simply signed a few papers for the Zhu family's assets to legally be in her hands. Of course, Qiao Nan had not forgotten about her original intentions and had taken a sum of money to support elderly people living alone.
The end of this lawsuit had caused quite a stir in the capital. Many people were surprised by the result, but others thought that it was only expected. Everyone watched as a girl from the countryside rose to become the master of the Zhu family. Now, Qiao Nan was wealthy and no longer just a country bumpkin. More importantly were the resources that Zhu Chengqi had left to Qiao Nan. Those were enviable indeed.
In the past, everyone had thought that Zhai Sheng had been blind to choose someone like Qiao Nan as his wife. Although Qiao Nan looked decent, she wasn't the most beautiful woman in the world. No matter how good she looked, nothing could conceal the fact that she was an unmarried woman of almost forty years old.
Zhai Sheng had married and treasured a woman whom no one else wanted. How stupid Zhai Sheng was! What made others even more speechless was that Zhai Yaohui and Miao Jing had gone crazy as well! They had not even tried to stop their son and had allowed Qiao Nan into the Zhai family.
Zhai Yaohui and Miao Jing had probably been too upset by the fact that Zhai Sheng was still single at his age. They were probably willing to accept anyone as long as they were women.
If they had known that the Zhai family's standards were so low, they would definitely have put their daughters forward. There was a long line of single ladies who had much better qualifications than Qiao Nan!
But now, no one dared to say anything of that sort. The mention of Qiao Nan now always made others sour. It seemed like that old woman had some real potential. Who would have expected Qiao Nan to have such great luck to be Zhu Chengqi's goddaughter? Zhu Chengqi had even written a will to leave his assets to an outsider like Qiao Nan instead of his own nephew.
Before this lawsuit ended, this sum of money was still an unknown figure to Qiao Nan. But now, everything had been settled and Qiao Nan had become the legal owner of all of the Zhu family's assets. Zhai Sheng had made the right call in marrying Qiao Nan.
No one in Zhai Sheng's generation or anyone younger had married anyone better than Qiao Nan. If they were to compare their backgrounds, Qiao Nan would beat them in an instant now that she had control of the Zhu family's assets. Not everyone could have such good judgment and luck.
Now, everyone felt terribly uncomfortable.
Why?
In terms of abilities, there was truly no one who could match up to Zhai Sheng unless they could set a new record to take Zhai Sheng's place. After all, he was the nation's youngest chief in history. But they had thought that their sons, who had not been able to beat Zhai Sheng in terms of capabilities, had finally beat him in terms of marrying good wives, at the very least.
It didn't matter if they weren't capable, but listening to the advice of elders and marrying a good wife was good nonetheless.
Who would have known that Zhai Sheng would have beaten them in that aspect too? Not only had Qiao Nan's attack been sudden, but it had also been too impressive. The number of people who had such great fortune like Qiao Nan could probably be counted on one hand. Even with such a low likelihood, Qiao Nan had been one of those! Wasn't that even better than winning the lottery?
The old woman whom Zhai Sheng had married had suddenly become a golden ticket! But no amount of envy could bring that sort of luck to other families. Their wives would never become their golden tickets, much less have Qiao Nan's luck!
The only thing these people felt good about was comparing themselves to the Wang family. Now that Qiao Nan had become the master of the Zhu family, the Wang family had taken the greatest hit. After learning about this news, many were betting on members of the Wang family dying from anger. Besides, would Wang Yang still have the face to return to the Wang family in the future? He might very well be chased out of the house!
Everyone knew that there was no way Wang Yang would have taken the entire Zhu family's assets for himself even if he were to inherit them. They would probably have become the collective property of the Wang family. As such, Wang Yang's painstaking efforts in fighting the lawsuit against Qiao Nan would only have benefited others.
But now, Qiao Nan was the one who had benefited from it. The Wang family, who had already thought about how to make use of the money and resources, could forget about doing so.
Just as everyone had guessed, the Wang family had already found out about this result before Wang Yang had let them know about it.
