Initially, when Qiao Nan had first gotten such a guarantee from Zhai Sheng, Qiao Nan had asked Zhai Sheng the same question. “You said that Sun Guohong is one who really wants a family of his own, a man who will be responsible toward his family. If that’s the case, how can you be sure that he won’t have his own children in the future and be biased against Ling Ling? Even fingers have different lengths. Even mothers have their own preferences among their children. There are already so many contradictions within a nuclear family, much less a reconstructed family. I’m sure you understand what I mean. But what I’ll say is that I’ll not interfere in Xu Shengnan’s choice of whether she’ll accept Sun Guohong in the end.”

Even if she felt that Xu Shengnan’s life would get more complicated after remarrying, as long as Xu Shengnan accepted him, Qiao Nan would never do anything to sabotage Sun Guohong. No matter what, it was all thanks to Sun Guohong that Xu Shengnan could cut off her marriage so cleanly in the face of great loss, although Sun Guohong had accepted money to help avoid the disaster. Even still, one could say that Xu Shengnan owed Sun Guohong a favor.

Without Sun Guohong, someone else could have taken Xu Shengnan’s money. But the matter might not have been settled so cleanly, and other people might even have requested for a greater sum than Sun Guohong had.

So, as long as the two of them were all right with each other, she would not express her opinion, and neither would she prevent Xu Shengnan from getting remarried. But the thought that she had acted as a matchmaker between Sun Guohong and Xu Shengnan... Qiao Nan was in a hard place. “Brother Zhai, I don’t think I can be a guarantor of this matchmaking. You know Xu Shengnan too. Just get someone else in.” If that was not possible, Brother Zhai himself could do it. It was not as though there were no male matchmakers.

Zhai Sheng trapped Qiao Nan within his embrace. “Do you think it’s realistic for me to be a matchmaker for them? I was the one who raised Sun Guohong in the military. If he had not gotten into an accident during an operation that year, he would probably be an assistant battalion commander by now. Then, Xu Shengnan might not even stand a chance.” No matter what, there was no way an assistant battalion commander would marry a divorcee with a daughter in his first marriage.

Qiao Nan retorted. “You were the one who said that Senior Xu wouldn’t stand a chance if he was an assistant battalion commander. But is he an assistant battalion commander now? If he has such thoughts, even more so I cannot guarantee this matchmaking. His heart isn’t genuine.”

Zhai Sheng was helpless. “This is purely what I think. It doesn’t represent Sun Guohong’s. Sun Guohong... Because he was under me, the way he looks at Xu Shengnan is obviously different from me. It’s only normal for me to think that Xu Shengnan isn’t deserving of him. Just like how you’re biased toward Xu Shengnan and don’t like Sun Guohong after listening to me. So, we have to abandon our own opinions and leave them aside from our discussion.”

All right. Now that Zhai Sheng had said that, Qiao Nan was willing to listen and could continue their discussion.

“I know what you’re concerned and worried about. I can tell you for sure that it won’t happen. No matter what it is.” Zhai Sheng hugged Qiao Nan even tighter. Did he not understand his own wife? Zhai Sheng had already guessed the two aspects that Qiao Nan was most worried about without her even saying anything. action

Firstly, children. Once Sun Guohong and Xu Shengnan had another child, Ling Ling would be in an awkward situation. Parents already had preferences among their own biological children, let alone if one was his biological child, while the other was not. It was only human nature for Sun Guohong to be biased toward his own biological child. The problem was that Xu Shengnan’s maternal love had always belonged to Ling Ling alone. With another child, even if Xu Shengnan favored her elder daughter, Ling Ling, she would still have to split her attention and love with another younger child.

Qiao Nan had a good relationship with Ling Ling. Before the situation even occurred, she had already thought of all possible scenarios and thought about them from Ling Ling’s perspective.

Secondly, the relationship with her in-laws. The reason for Xu Shengnan getting a divorce from Fang Shiyou was due to Mother Fang’s influence on her son. Initially, Fang Shiyou had been quite fond of his daughter, Ling Ling. It had been Mother Fang who had nagged incessantly at her son to give her a grandson, eventually causing Fang Shiyou to be greatly disappointed in Ling Ling. And that was why this complete family eventually went through so many trials and was ruined in the end.

“Are you sure?” Upon hearing Zhai Sheng’s words, Qiao Nan was in disbelief. “I’m just lucky that Mom treats me like her biological daughter. Even Sister Zhai Hua gets jealous sometimes and teases me about it. It’s not that there aren’t other people who have such great fortune like me, but it’s really rare. I feel that finding a good mother-in-law is probably even harder than finding a good husband.”

Zhai Sheng bit Qiao Nan on the back of her neck. “So you really have a great fortune! Not only do you have a good husband, but you also have a good mother-in-law. To tell you the truth, Xu Shengnan won’t be able to have it like you do and enjoy a good relationship with her mother-in-law if she gets married to Sun Guohong. Sun Guohong’s mom is not to be trifled with. Sun Guohong’s relationship with his mother...”

Zhai Sheng stopped himself in time and did not try to use Qiao Nan’s relationship with Ding Jiayi as an example. “Their mother and son relationship is not very good, and Sun Guohong has a brother who is much younger. His mom is biased toward the younger one and has never treated Sun Guohong fairly since he was young. Sun Guohong suffered an accident and sustained severe injuries while he was on a mission. At that time, his mom committed a folly and from then on, there’s been no way that the mother and son can coexist harmoniously. Sun Guohong only gives his mother a living allowance once a year. Even when he goes home to visit his mother, he leaves on the same day that he arrives. He never stays there overnight.”

With such a situation, even if Sun Guohong’s mother was hard to deal with, as long as Xu Shengnan did not spend any time with this mother-in-law of hers, Sun Guohong’s mother would have no chance to mess with Xu Shengnan.

Zhai Sheng went through it vaguely, but because of her personal experience, Qiao Nan shed a tear for Sun Guohong. “We’re in the same boat.” From what she had heard, Sun Guohong’s situation was no better than hers. But it was Sun Guohong’s privacy, after all, so Zhai Sheng did not talk more about it, and neither did Qiao Nan ask. “There won’t be a problem with her in-laws, but what about children?”

“Didn’t I say that Sun Guohong got into an accident during a mission? That accident left him with severe injuries. He’ll never be able to have his own children for the rest of his life.” This was a huge blow to a man.

But right when Sun Guohong faced such a huge blow, Sun Guohong’s mother and Sun Guoming formed an alliance to give Sun Guohong an even greater blow, and Sun Guohong almost did not get through it.
