2099: Dutiful Son

Dutiful Son

Who didn't know that Zhai Sheng worked extremely hard when he was young? Even the competitors who hated Zhai Sheng could only concede defeat to him for the military merits he had built when he was young. However, compared to these merits, Zhai Sheng had suffered more injuries from back then.2

These injuries didn't have eyes. They wouldn't know which parts of Zhai Sheng's body they could injure and which they should avoid. As such, who could say with certainty that Zhai Sheng didn't injure himself in that area when he was young and working hard and was still a normal man?

To put it crudely, if Zhai Sheng was a normal man and coupled with the fact that he was a soldier, his woman would generally not fancy other men after having tasted the fierceness of a soldier in bed.

However, in reality, not only did Qiu Chenxi cheat during their marriage, but she even looked for men one after another after the divorce. It was as if Qiu Chenxi could easily find a man who was manlier than Zhai Sheng who could keep her satisfied. Moreover, the two had been married for three years. Qiu Chenxi didn't even have a miscarriage, let alone give birth to a child.

As men, his competitors naturally knew what kind of words would attack men more easily. Very quickly, these people mocked him by betting if Zhai Sheng 'couldn't do it' or that he didn't have 'balls'.

Once these disgusting words came out, they naturally didn't spread only within that circle. Every time someone from Zhai Sheng's side performed better, the small soldiers from other companies or battalions weren't willing to take this lying down and would habitually talk about this incident. How would the soldiers under Zhai Sheng be willing to admit that the chief whom they admired the most had no 'balls' or 'couldn't do it'?

It happened frequently, but what use was there to argue verbally? They just removed their clothes and started fighting. As men, how could they gossip like women? People like them were the ones without 'balls'!

The army was a place with strict discipline. How would they allow such fights between soldiers? They wanted to fight, right? They had a lot of energy and didn't know where to vent, right? That was easy. Run a hundred laps around the field. If one hundred was too little, they could run two or three hundred laps. They could even do one thousand sit-ups or ten thousand leapfrogs. There were a lot of such 'activities' in the army. They didn't need to be afraid that there was nowhere to vent their excessive energy.

Only the chief could let the soldiers go. Otherwise, they would just be as tired as dead dogs.

No one was exempted from the punishment. Nobody could withstand such a large amount of physical training and corporal punishment. What was depressing was that people from other districts soon found out that Zhai Sheng was vicious and the soldiers trained under him were similarly evil in nature.

One would be afraid of such punishments after experiencing them once. The person who created trouble was afraid, but not the one who was provoked. Every time someone dared to speak ill of Zhai Sheng in this aspect, even if Zhai Sheng's soldiers knew that they would be punished again, they chose to fight. They did their utmost when hitting them, and all their punches landed in positions that were painful yet not obvious.

After being beaten a few times, many people knew that the soldiers under Zhai Sheng were not to be trifled with as they were evil in nature. As time passed, they dared to keep some words in their hearts but would definitely not dare to say them in front of Zhai Sheng's soldiers.

The fights might be over, but the words stuck in their hearts were not. Thankfully, all the problems could be resolved today.

Who said that their chief wasn't a man?

Who said that their chief didn't have 'balls'?

Their chief had a wife as well, and she was even pregnant!

At this moment, Xiao Xu was smiling like a fool. People who weren't in the know might have thought that the pregnant woman was Xiao Xu's wife. Xiao Xu smiled and said, "Chief, how many months is Sister Qiao pregnant?"

"Four months. Triplets." Zhai Sheng's eyes didn't waver and he didn't raise his eyebrows. However, anyone with ears wouldn't be able to ignore the happiness and pride in Zhai Sheng's tone when he mentioned the word 'triplets'.

Xiao Xu's eyes widened. "Three?"

"Yes, triplets."

"Chief, you're too formidable!" The chief must have extraordinary abilities for the chief's wife to be pregnant with triplets. "Chief, I'm going to share this piece of good news with our brothers now. Chief, you're amazing. Our chief's wife is amazing too. Three! If all three of them are sons, we'll make it big!"

Damn. The chief was the chief. To not speak unless there was something sensational was apt to describe people like their chief. There was nothing amazing about having children. Who dared to look down on their chief? It was either the chief didn't have a baby or he had three at one go. Whoever could compete with him should stand up and let them take a look!

Without a doubt, after Zhai Sheng spread this good news, he was immediately greeted with cheers. This was really a joyous matter!

The appearance of the triplets was really a slap to those who used to say that there was something wrong with Zhai Sheng's body. After Qiao Nan finished a call with Qiao Dongliang, she found out that her family had a history of triplets as well. With this point of inheritance as proof, Zhai Sheng's triplets made him hold his head high in the men's world.

As a child of someone else's family, they could only win against Zhai Sheng in terms of having children. Now that Zhai Sheng's triplets were arriving, Zhai Sheng was once again promoted as the 'perfect child of someone else's family'. As Zhai Sheng's peers, most of them felt hatred.

So be it. Their children had already grown up. In comparison, their family's children were born first and could take advantage of this opportunity first. What use was there to just give up? Yes, Zhai Sheng was about to have triplets soon. However, they were competing in terms of quality, not quantity. If all of the children were good-for-nothings, the Zhai family would have three more black sheep in the family. What was there to be happy about?

People with such thoughts would order their wives to be strict with their children. They couldn't relax the slightest. They had to be serious in their studies and attitude and should be nurtured to be an elite among the elites. If a good-for-nothing was raised, causing their family to lose face, it was best not to let them find out. Otherwise, the first thing they would do upon reaching home would be to hit their children.

Dutiful sons were products of the rod. They didn't believe that they wouldn't be able to produce obedient children via this method.

As such, children of the third and fourth generations who were born to officials of the second and third generations seemed to have fallen from heaven into hell. One second ago, they were still the precious ones in the family. The next moment, they became vegetables that were turning yellow.
