Chapter 2160 Persuasion
Qiao Zijin smiled: "You are my father, when can I not call you? I heard from my mother that you are in the capital as well? You must be here to see Nan Nan, right? I am here for tourism, but now that I am here, I also want to see Nan Nan, otherwise, if Nan Nan calls me sister in the future, how can I respond with the face?"
"..." Qiao Dongliang pursed his lips. If she really had this self-awareness, Zijin should have felt that she had long since lost the face to be Nannan's sister.
"But now it's all right. After you're here, let's go see Nannan together. Also, where do you live now? Otherwise, why don't we live closer together?" This should be said by her father. She is a single woman, and her father should take the initiative to ask her to come over and take care of her.
Qiao Dongliang pinched his nose and finally understood Qiao Zijin's plan: "No need, the place I live in was arranged by the Zhai family. There is only one room and one bed here. You are my daughter, and it is not convenient for us to live together. As for living closer, I don't think it is possible. This is a residential area, and I don't see any unit with vacant houses for rent. What's more, the houses for rent in residential areas are not cheap. You are just here for tourism, and you will leave after staying for a few days. Therefore, staying in a hotel is really more affordable."
This is the Zhai family's territory, and the Zhai family values Nan Nan. Therefore, the Zhai family is absolutely unwilling to see Zi Jin live in their territory. If the Zhai family really didn't bother with Zi Jin, Zi Jin would have met the Zhai family before him, and the Zhai family would have arranged everything for Zi Jin.
The Zhai family's attitude towards Qiao Zijin was so clear that Qiao Dongliang was embarrassed to use the Zhai family's land as a favor and asked Qiao Zijin to come and live with him.
"..." It sounds like her dad is staying in a condo by himself: "Dad, why are you being so polite to me? You are my real dad. If it doesn't work, I can also make do with sharing a room in the living room. To be honest, I can't sleep well at night when I stay in a hotel by myself. I always feel like someone strange is knocking on my door."
If possible, Qiao Zijin would of course prefer to sleep in the big bed and Qiao Dongliang sleep on the cot. But at this moment, Qiao Zijin had to be a little low-key and find a way to move in first.
As for Qiao Zijin's situation, it wasn't completely nonsense. Someone did knock on Qiao Zijin's door, either asking if she needed any special services or asking if she wanted to go out for a drink or some fun.
In the past, Qiao Zijin would have agreed without hesitation. It was rare for her to come out, so she could see the difference between the bars in the capital and those in Pingcheng. The problem was that in a few months, she would marry Zhai Sheng and become the wife of the leader. So, how could she let these people ruin her image and give the Zhai family more reasons to reject her before the revolution was successful?
Qiao Zijin thinks she is perfect, but there are two stains that she can't get rid of. First, she is divorced. When Qiao Nan got married, she was old, but Qiao Nan was a first-time marriage and a "young girl", just a little "old". In this regard, Qiao Zijin can never compare with Qiao Nan. Second, Qiao Zijin got divorced not because she wanted to, but because Chen Jun forced her to divorce. Why did Chen Jun succeed? It was because he caught Qiao Zijin in bed.
Zhai Sheng was also a divorced man, and his first wife made the same mistake as Qiao Zijin. Once this shortcoming was mentioned, Qiao Zijin couldn't explain it clearly. Don't say that Chen Jun was not good enough to her, and she was playing with other women outside, she did this to get revenge on Chen Jun.
Qiao Zijin did a lot of research to marry Zhai Sheng. So she knew clearly that Zhai Sheng's first wife was dissatisfied with Zhai Sheng's stay in the army and had almost no time to spend with her. She couldn't stand the loneliness and did something that was unfair to Zhai Sheng, and was caught in adultery.
Because she had a "conviction", she had to be careful when the revolution was not yet successful. Qiao Zijin had thought it through. Even if she succeeded, she had to respect herself and never mess around with other men. Whether there was a man or not was not as important as having a comfortable life.
When she was looking for a man, Chen Jun didn't let her go. If it were Zhai Sheng, he could divorce her once, so would he be afraid of divorcing her a second time?
As a second marriage, the most important thing for her now is to be clean and self-disciplined, and never do frivolous and self-deprecating things with those messy men, which will make the Zhai family look down on her.
Hearing Qiao Zijin say this, Qiao Dongliang was not without worry. But soon, Qiao Dongliang calmed down. Qiao Zijin arrived at the hotel earlier than him. If she really encountered this situation, she would have encountered it before, right?
Qiao Zijin wasn't really traveling. If she was scared, she should have gone back to Pingcheng. But Qiao Zijin didn't do that. This only showed one thing: Qiao Zijin wasn't scared at all. So why was she so nervous and anxious?
"Really? If the public security is so bad, you can actually go back to Pingcheng. Or next time you go out for a trip, take your mother with you. Two people together are always more courageous than one alone. You have been in the capital for two years, right? Where have you been? You have played enough, it's time to go back."
"..." Qiao Zijin wanted to live with Qiao Dongliang, saving the money for the hotel and spending it on Qiao Nan to please her. But Qiao Dongliang, as a father, was so "unreasonable" that he asked her to go back to Pingcheng: "Dad, I want to stay in the capital for a while, Dad, what do you think..."
"Beep, beep, beep..." What are you looking at? When Qiao Dongliang heard that Qiao Zijin didn't want to go back, he simply hung up his phone. They were obviously father and daughter, but when they talked to each other, Qiao Zijin didn't tell a single truth and kept telling lies to Qiao Dongliang, just like she was fooling Qiao Dongliang like a three-year-old child.
Faced with such a daughter, Qiao Dongliang said, he doesn't want to see it!
After Qiao Dongliang hung up the phone, Qiao Zijin was dumbfounded. She didn't expect that her father would hang up on her before she finished talking. From his attitude, Qiao Zijin could easily guess that her father was welcoming her to live with him. But on what basis? The house was not her father's, and her father was just staying there temporarily, so how could her father have the nerve to hang up on her and reject her request?
Qiao Zijin and Qiao Dongliang were having a conflict, and this time, Qiao Nan certainly had no idea what Qiao Dongliang was angry about. When Qiao Nan was lying in the hospital, besides caring about her own health, she was more concerned about Chief Zhu's condition: "Brother Zhai, is Chief Zhu doing well recently?"
