Chapter 1317 Went Overboard

Zhai Sheng did not merely hear about this incident, but he even had photos.

Zhai Sheng was caught off-guard by the photos that Peng Yu showed him that he almost fell for his trap.


If one was slightly distracted during the military drill, one could easily cause the entire regiment to be wiped out by the enemy. If so, it would be a shame on them.


Peng Yu was very ambitious. He wanted to prove that he was better than Zhai Sheng. The military drill was a good chance for Zhai Sheng to suffer a crus.h.i.+ng defeat and for him to have a definite win over him.


Therefore, as soon as Peng Yu had the photos, he had been planning for Zhai Sheng to suffer a crus.h.i.+ng defeat.


Peng Yu had almost succeeded.


Luckily, Zhai Sheng had absolute trust in Qiao Nan and had faith in their relations.h.i.+p that had lasted for so many years. After he was injured, Zhai Sheng composed himself and cleared his mind of other thoughts. He looked at Peng Yu’s strategy rationally and adjusted his action plan accordingly to pit against Peng Yu.


Initially, Zhai Sheng’s side was on the losing end.


However, in the end, he had a beautiful victory.


After the drill, Zhai Sheng was elated with his win, but he still remembered that a man confessed his love to his wife and in turn affected his mood during the military drill. Although he knew that his wife had rejected him, given Zhai Sheng’s personality, he could not let the matter off.


Since Qiao Nan brought it up, and revenge was a dish best served cold, he would take it out on Qiao Nan.


Qiao Nan was sensitive and caught on quickly. “Since you brought up Peng Yu now, does it mean that after Peng Yu learned about it, he used this to affect your mood?” Could it be that she was the one who caused Brother Zhai to sustain injuries?


Zhai Sheng did not wish for Qiao Nan to be anxious and blame herself. “Don’t think too much and don’t blame yourself for what had happened. After all, it was because I didn’t have enough faith and was hence affected. I should have banished all thoughts and not to be affected by external factors. Regardless of what photos Peng Yu showed me, I should know that the IT industry is very advanced and one could come up with a lot of edited graphics using the computer. Experts would be able to make people who are as different as night and day to be in the same photo and scene.”


Zhai Sheng had heard of this technology in the past.


Therefore, after winning in the military drill, the first thing that Zhai Sheng did was to check the source of the photos given by Peng Yu. He could have pa.s.sed off fake photos as genuine photos.


The army was very efficient. After some investigation, Zhai Sheng found out that the photos were real. There was indeed a foolish male college student who confessed his love to Qiao Nan. He professed his love and promised that he would be with her for the rest of his life.


Zhai Sheng never suspected that Qiao Nan would give up on their relations.h.i.+p because of other people. He knew that Qiao Nan would never be moved or touched by their words or actions.


It was just that as a man, he could not help but feel unhappy when he learned about such news.


“Are you talking about PS?” Qiao Nan might not know about other technology, but she had heard about PS. In another ten years, this technology would be used on photos, making photos to be different from what one had seen through one’s eyes.


Qiao Nan did not expect that the technology that was favored by celebrities ten years later would have such usage at the beginning of the twentieth century. It was an eye-opener for Qiao Nan.


“PS?” Zhai Sheng thought about it and smiled. “Indeed, its acronym is indeed PS. Since you know about this, you should understand what I am saying. I am not exaggerating at all. There might be more than one occurrence. Nan Nan, aside from being jealous, the reason why I bring this up is that I hope we will not have any misunderstanding or doubts, and we will not allow this to affect our relations.h.i.+p.”


Qiao Nan’s expression turned cold. “Are you saying that Peng Yu might use the same method on me? He had failed at defeating you. One would not use the same successful method too often. What makes him so confident to use the same method on me even though he had failed once? Is he that confident that he will succeed the next time?”


Peng Yu had underestimated her.


Zhai Sheng chuckled. “Peng Yu is an arrogant person. He did not expect that there would be someone like me who would not fall for his tricks. He felt that there would not be many such exceptions. Furthermore, Peng Yu looks down on women. He felt that they might have long hair, but they are shallow and lack knowledge. Moreover, you suffered from the ‘baby brain’ effect.”


Qiao Nan’s temple was throbbing. Since Brother Zhai had said so, he must be certain that Peng Yu had been targeting her since a long time ago and he wanted to play the same old trick on her, hoping that he would succeed this time. “‘Baby brain’ effect? Long hair but shallow? I would really like to know the woman who gave birth to Peng Yu.”


“You, move aside.” Qiao Nan was engaged in a conversation with Zhai Sheng. San Bao, who saw them, pulled a long face. She was unhappy. She would not reason with them and would make her anger known through her actions.


Perhaps, children at this age were particularly attached to their mother. Among the three children, San Bao was the most attached to their mother.


Seeing that Zhai Sheng hugged her mama shamelessly, San Bao threw her favorite toy aside and walked toward Zhai Sheng with a look of displeasure on her face. She used her tiny hands to push Zhai Sheng aside. But Zhai Sheng would not budge. She had to change her position and use her bottom to push at Zhai Sheng.


To Zhai Sheng, San Bao’s feeble movements were even lighter than a scratch. Zhai Sheng was so much stronger than San Bao. She was overrating herself.


San Bao’s face turned red from overexertion, while Zhai Sheng did not move an inch.


In the end, San Bao turned angry and bawled.


Miao Jing felt angry and funny. She could not help but give Zhai Sheng a few smacks on his back. “You are turning thirty years old. Why do you behave so out of line and become more and more childish? San Bao is your daughter. How can a father bully his daughter? Look at how she is crying. Doesn’t your heart ache for her?” Miao Jing felt heartbroken that San Bao was in tears. She would do anything, including sacrificing herself, to improve her mood.


If it was someone else who bullied San Bao to tears, Miao Jing would definitely make the person pay for bullying San Bao.


But the culprit was her son, and he was San Bao’s father. Miao Jing, albeit furious, could only lecture him.


Miao Jing could do nothing to Zhai Sheng.
