Chapter 1665: Time for a Change

“It’s not convenient for me to find out about that on your behalf unless Zhai Xin takes the initiative to introduce his family to me. When that time comes and such an opportunity arises, I could keep a lookout for you.”

With that, Zhou Xing left the dormitory and headed to PLA National Defense University to look for Zhai Xin.

“…” After receiving Zhou Xing’s phone call, Zhai Yi’s expression was still neutral. “Zhai Xin is rather busy these days. He might not have time to meet with you. He is not in the dormitory at the moment.”

Upon hearing Zhai Yi’s voice that was as deep as a cello, Zhou Xing could not help but blush. “Elder brother, can you tell me what Zhai Xin has been busy with lately? I’ve not seen him for an entire week! Have any other girls gone to find Zhai Xin in this week?”

“No.” Zhai Yi frowned. Was Zhou Xing planning on making him her spy? “Do you have anything else? Otherwise, I’m going to hang up. I still have a class in the afternoon.”

Zhou Xing moved her lips. She did have something else, but she knew that Zhai Yi would not bother with her even if she were to say it out loud. “No, elder brother. I won’t bother you anymore. By the way, I quite like cooking. When I get the chance, I’ll boil some soup for you and Zhai Xin. If it’s not good, please be more understanding. Please feel free to give me your feedback too. I think that there’s still room for improvement for my cooking skills.”

If she wanted to hold on to a man’s heart, she would have to first grasp his stomach. She did not believe that her dishes would taste that awful that Zhai Yi and Zhai Xin would find fault with her since she had learned to cook for such a long time.

Zhou Xing’s so-called feedback was just her being modest. She was actually quite confident in her culinary skills. While other girls were still in elementary school, she had already started her culinary journey in the kitchen. Thankfully, her efforts had all been worth it thus far.

The culinary skills that she had gained through much effort were finally being put to good use.

Zhai Yi frowned. “I think you should just call me comrade. It’s still too early for you to be addressing me as elder brother. Also, it’s good enough as long as Zhai Xin is satisfied with your soup. There’s no need to count me in. Alright, goodbye.” This Zhou Xing was indeed just as sociable as she was in his memory.

The thought of Zhou Xing affectionately addressing him as elder brother disgusted Zhai Yi.

As a good elder brother, even if Zhai Yi could not get friendly with Zhou Xing, that was his own business. He would not try to come in between Zhai Xin and Zhou Xing. It was true that Zhai Xin was not in his room and was busy with other matters now. But he was sure to return later. Thus, before heading off for his class, Zhai Yi left a note for Zhai Xin, explaining the situation.

When Zhai Xin first saw the note that Zhai Yi had left for him, his first response was one of happiness. He had never expected that he would meet an ‘outsider’ who cared for him just like his family did so early on in his life. This was proof that his personality was charming!

Even if the two of them had not shared the best start, and he had even been a little reluctant, his girlfriend, Zhou Xing, was really quite a good girlfriend. He had to reciprocate his girlfriend’s good intentions. Even if he still did not have much time to go on a date with his girlfriend, he would definitely express his gratefulness toward his girlfriend for her kind intentions.

And so, the moment Zhai Xin returned to his room, he immediately made a call to Zhou Xing. But what he had not expected was that Zhou Xing’s line was busy! After two unsuccessful tries, Zhai Xin hung up the phone.

Who could Zhou Xing be calling at this time? And by the looks of it, this call had been going on for quite a while. But Zhai Xin did not feel troubled about his phone call not getting through. When he was busy, Zhou Xing could not get hold of him either. He had to consider Zhou Xing’s perspective too. Zhai Xin felt that it was normal for Zhou Xing to be busy and have someone else she needed to contact. There was no need to harp on it.

Zhai Xin thought no more of this matter, but not Zhou Xing.

“Grandma, yes, I’m doing pretty well. No one is bullying me. Grandma, I have a boyfriend now. His name is Zhai Xin. Yes, Zhai Xin, Qiao Nan’s second son.” Zhou Xing’s tone was gloomy and especially strange at the mention of Qiao Nan’s name.

“…” Upon hearing her granddaughter’s words, she paused. “Xingxing, forget it. This matter… It has been so many years. Grandma isn’t expecting anything. I just want you to be happy. There’s nothing more important than your happiness. Your mom is no longer around. I just hope that you’ll be able to live happily for your mother’s sake too. You should hurry and break up with Zhai Xin. The two of you can’t be together. The Zhai family isn’t as simple as you think.”

“I know it’s not simple. If the Zhai family was that simple, would I humble myself to be with Zhai Xin? Although they look almost similar, Zhai Yi is the Zhai family’s eldest son after all. In the future, Zhai Yi will surely be the one who’ll take over Zhai Sheng’s place. I’ve heard that Zhai Yi does have that ability too, and he’s even more outstanding than Zhai Sheng was at this age.” Zhai Yi was her first choice, but there had been no results even after all her efforts.

If she had not become Zhai Xin’s girlfriend, Zhai Yi might not even know that a person like her existed up until now!

How nice would it have been if the person who had taken her bait was Zhai Yi. Then, Zhai Yi would be her boyfriend instead. Once Qiao Nan found out who she was, the truth would hit Qiao Nan even harder and she would get even greater revenge!

“Xingxing!” Her grandmother seemed to be angry. She could not understand how Zhou Xing had suddenly grown up to have such a distorted mindset. “Didn’t you say that you want to be a celebrity? If you offend the Zhai family, you’ll never be able to be a celebrity in this lifetime! Don’t forget why you’re called Zhou Xing.” Her grandma clearly wanted Zhou Xing to remember her dream so that she would leave Zhai Xin and work hard to fulfill her own dream.

“The Zhai family is powerful, and Qiao Nan is both powerful and rich. If I become Qiao Nan’s daughter-in-law, I’ll have access to the Zhai family’s power and money. I could be a celebrity any time if I want. I’m only sixteen now. If I rely on my own efforts, even when I reach twenty-six, I might not become a famous celebrity! Besides, I think it’ll be more fulfilling to be pushed up into fame by my enemy’s money and power.”

Qiao Nan had three children by her side, and Zhai Xin was now her boyfriend. If Zhai Xin were to listen to her one day instead of listening to Qiao Nan and even help her say things that would hurt Qiao Nan, just imagine how hurt Qiao Nan would be.

There was no way the heavens would allow a person to lead such a blissful life all the time. On behalf of the heavens, she would have to let Qiao Nan know that life could not always be so perfect. She had already enjoyed the splendor of the world when she was younger.
