Chapter 1363 Deceiving Oneself Like an Ostrich If Deng Wenchang did not nitpick on her materials, bent on finding mistakes in them, she dared to chop her head down and let Deng Wenchang use it as a stool!Other than Qiao Nan, the veterans in the unit had the same sentiments as Qiao Nan.

All of them were men, so how could they not understand Deng Wenchang?

They saw each other at the urinal in the restroom. All of them stood side by side and one of them asked jokingly, “Xiao Deng, are you sure you didn’t take a single look at Xiao Qiao’s materials?”

Not waiting for Deng Wenchang to reply, the person broke into laughter after ridiculing him. He left the restroom as he could not be bothered to hear the answer.

Deng Wenchang turned green in anger and he missed the urinal.

The leg of his pants was wet. Deng Wenchang was so angry that he almost tore out the leg of the pants. But he did not have another pair of pants in the office. If he tore the pants, he would be further embarrassed.

Deng Wenchang had no other choice but to wash the pants. He cursed Qiao Nan, saying that she was a jinx while he washed his pants.

He had read through the materials. He even did research and asked around on areas that he was not familiar with. When he was doing his overseas study in America, he had not been so conscientious before.

What was funny was that Deng Wenchang had looked through the entire document, but he could not find a single mistake in Qiao Nan’s assignment. Qiao Nan was faster in completing the assignment and she was highly accurate. In comparison, he took a long time to look through the documents and try spotting mistakes in them. Deng Wenchang was so furious that he could not go to sleep that night.

He used to think that He Yi showed favoritism and that he assigned the easier assignment to Qiao Nan, while he assigned him with more difficult tasks.

Because of He Yi’s cheap tricks, everyone in the office felt that he lost to Qiao Nan. If not for He Yi, Qiao Nan would not dare to be so bold and daring.

However, Deng Wenchang was given a tight slap when he took a serious look at Qiao Nan’s materials.

The truth was that his assignment was easier than Qiao Nan’s.

If he were to say that He Yi showed favoritism, he was helping him instead of Qiao Nan.

This was why Deng Wenchang had a sleepless night.

He came back from overseas study and he had a master’s degree. How could he fare worse than a college student who had yet to graduate?

How was that possible?

It was ridiculous!

Deng Wenchang refused to admit that he was wasting his time during his overseas study. He was worse than a college student in the country who had yet to graduate. This was the greatest irony.

Impossible. This was absolutely impossible!

After losing sleep for a night, Deng Wenchang brought the documents back to the ministry in its original condition. He stated clearly that he was preoccupied with his work and he had no time to check for errors in Qiao Nan’s work. It was not that Qiao Nan did a good job. He had too many tasks to complete that he did not have enough time. How could he possibly check Qiao Nan’s work for errors? It was ridiculous.

In order not to give himself away, Deng Wenchang had made a copy long ago. He returned the first original copy to Qiao Nan so that she would not notice any difference.

Deng Wenchang thought that by doing so, he could cover up the truth and no one would know what he had done. However, Qiao Nan did not believe him. All the veterans in the office did not fall for his trick either.

It seemed as if these people knew that given his petty-minded personality, he would do his utmost to find an error in Qiao Nan’s assignment.

It was no wonder that they broke out in laughter when he said that he was busy.

Deng Wenchang had not recovered from his embarrassment yesterday. Today, he was further embarrassed when he was ridiculed by his seniors. When he came out from the restroom looking grim, many people fixed their gazes on him. “Hey, Xiao Deng, what’s wrong? You missed and wetted your pants in the restroom? You are still young. You must take note of your health. You should not be in a worse state than us.” Men must have urinary problems if they missed and wet their pants.

As a man, they knew what was going on. The entire office broke out into laughter.

Deng Wenchang had to stifle his anger despite being ridiculed by so many people. He returned to his seat with a darkened expression, directing his anger and wrath at Qiao Nan. He glared at her as if she was his sworn enemy.

Qiao Nan, who was blamed despite not doing anything, stared at Deng Wenchang, telling him through her eyes that he was a moron.

If possible, Qiao Nan felt that ‘retarded’ might be a better description of him.

After leaving the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for several months, yesterday was the first day that she returned to the ministry. Qiao Nan had yet to notice the situation in the office, but she spotted something odd today.

It was inevitable that the veterans bullied the newcomers in the department. But Qiao Nan felt that the seniors in the ministry seemed to dislike Deng Wenchang. During the one month when she did her internship at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs last year, the seniors did not adopt such an attitude toward Deng Wenchang. Although they did not really take care of Deng Wenchang, who was a newcomer, they would not ridicule him. They should know that this topic was taboo for men, and yet they brought it up.

All the seniors in the department seemed to be ostracizing the newcomer. There was mockery in their laughter. Perhaps the seniors were united in ostracizing him, or that Deng Wenchang did not perform as expected, or he had offended them.

Deng Wenchang must have low emotional intelligence to offend people in his department.

After confirming this, Qiao Nan drank some water and a thought crossed her mind. If not for Peng Yu, perhaps she did not need to do anything and Deng Wenchang would leave the Ministry of Foreign Affairs eventually.

“Papa, lift me high up into the air. Hahahaha.”

“Me too!”

“You have to queue up!”

Qiao Nan was in a good mood. She had just reached the door to her house when she heard shrieking sounds made by her children. They seemed to be having fun. “Higher, higher, and higher.”

As soon as Qiao Nan opened the door, Zhai Sheng seemed to have sensed something. He held his chubby daughter in his arms and turned to see that his wife was back. “You are back.”

Qiao Nan’s eyes formed crescent moon-like shapes. “I should be the one saying that. You are finally back home.”

“Yes.” Zhai Sheng smiled. It did not make a difference who said it. “Did you come back from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? Don’t you intend to go back to school?”

“Yes. I have completed all the necessary procedures and applications. I have also completed everything that could be done in school. I don’t think I will continue to take the entrance exams for postgraduate schools and study for a doctorate. After all, in another one to two years, the three children will need to go to school. I am afraid that apart from my work, I will not have enough time for them.”
