Chapter 1990: The Issue of Money


“Both of us are Dad’s daughters. Since something major happened to Dad, we can’t keep it from her, right?”


Now that they had to fork out money, Qiao Zijin especially hoped that what the old neighbors said was true.


There was no choice. She couldn’t contact Qiao Nan and didn’t know where she was. If they couldn’t find Qiao Nan, how were they going to get her to fork out the money? However, if Qiao Nan was really marrying Zhai Sheng, then the Zhai family would be their Qiao family’s in-laws. As long as they could find the Zhai family, it didn’t matter if they couldn’t find Qiao Nan.


As the in-laws, the Zhai family had to do something now that her dad was injured and hospitalized, right? Wasn’t Qiao Nan going to marry Zhai Sheng? If her dad didn’t recover from the injuries and couldn’t be discharged from the hospital earlier, how was Qiao Nan going to marry Zhai Sheng?


The Zhai family should be more concerned about her dad’s health condition than their family.


Ding Jiayi stared at Qiao Zijin in a daze. “You mean we have to call Qiao Nan over and fork out the money?”


“Yes. Mom, didn’t you also say that Qiao Nan became ambitious and she’s no longer close to us? It’s really nothing for me to spend more money on you and Dad. However, it doesn’t make sense for Qiao Nan to take our family’s money but ignore your lives. I’m not asking for much. I just want Qiao Nan to hand over all the money that she had taken away from our family back then. If there isn’t enough for Dad’s illness this time, I will provide the shortfall no matter how much it is.”


Wasn’t it just a fracture? It should cost less than a few tens of thousands yuan.


Hearing that the nurse was already urging them, Ding Jiayi’s eyes became damp. “Zijin, see if this works? Your dad’s in a hurry to undergo the operation. You fork out all the money first. When we’ve found Qiao Nan, I’ll get her to pay you back whatever you have forked out. Do you think this is alright?” When she thought of how the doctor looked, Ding Jiayi knew that Qiao Dongliang had suffered a really bad fall this time.


Ding Jiayi deeply understood how much of a money-burning place the hospital was two months ago. She was really afraid that the delayed payment would adversely affect Qiao Dongliang’s condition. If Qiao Dongliang didn’t recover well from this fall, he would have to rely on her alone to serve him in the future. Just thinking with her toes, Ding Jiayi knew that if Qiao Dongliang faced difficulty moving in the future, not only would Qiao Zijin not serve him, but she might not even be willing to feed Qiao Dongliang a mouthful of food.


As such, whether Qiao Dongliang could get better and whether his ability to move about would remain the same as before he was injured were directly related to Ding Jiayi’s future quality of life. Compared to money, Ding Jiayi would rather spend more money now so that she could lead an easier life in the future.


Qiao Zijin dawdled for a while. “Mom, Dad’s already hospitalized. When I was hospitalized, Qiao Nan didn’t care. She can’t possibly not care about Dad now as well. I feel that you should make a call quickly to the Zhai family and let them tell Qiao Nan that Dad’s hospitalized. Isn’t Qiao Nan marrying Zhai Sheng soon? Qiao Nan might be at the Zhai family now as well. Call the Zhai family quickly. Qiao Nan would arrive immediately within ten minutes.”


Her mom asked Qiao Nan to fork out the money? If this happened a year ago, she would definitely believe it without thinking. However, now… If her mom had the ability to control all of Qiao Nan’s money, would she have to resort to selling her own house?


Qiao Zijin said a lot of things wrongly in the past. However, it was only this time that everything was guessed pretty accurately. Qiao Zijin wasn’t willing to fork out money. Ding Jiayi was worried that if Qiao Dongliang didn’t receive timely treatment, his inconvenient actions in the future would have a great impact on her life. Especially when the X-ray was out and the doctor told Ding Jiayi that Qiao Dongliang suffered a fracture more than once, even if she had to be thick-skinned and slap herself in the face, Ding Jiayi could only make a call to the Zhai family.


Ding Jiayi previously said that Qiao Nan would definitely not be lucky enough to be on good terms with the Zhai family and that she must have used deceptive means to get close to the Zhai family. Now, Ding Jiayi became thick-skinned and addressed the Zhai family as in-laws so that they could help find Qiao Nan and ask her to rush to the hospital where Qiao Dongliang was.


As such, when Qiao Nan, who had avoided Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin for half a year, met them again, it was at the hospital. Of course, Qiao Nan was not alone when she arrived at the hospital. Zhai Sheng had accompanied her. Once she heard that Qiao Dongliang fell and suffered more than one fracture, Qiao Nan didn’t say another word. She took her pa.s.sbook, got into Zhai Sheng’s car, and rushed to the hospital.


The Qiao family looked for her only for one thing: money. Aside from money, it was still about money. Even if Qiao Zijin had a lot of money in her hands, Qiao Nan didn’t expect her to be willing to fork out the money at this time to treat Qiao Dongliang’s illness.


Qiao Nan really appeared and she even brought along Zhai Sheng. When the two appeared side by side, Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin were so shocked that they couldn’t speak. Qiao Zijin looked at Ding Jiayi carefully. She didn’t forget what Ding Jiayi told her when they were at home.


Zhai Sheng was every child’s role model in Ping Cheng’s quad. Qiao Zijin had heard of Zhai Sheng’s name a lot, but this was the first time she saw him in person. It could be said that before Zhai Sheng’s appearance, Chen Jun was the best man Qiao Zijin had seen before, in terms of looks and background. However, when she saw Zhai Sheng now, Qiao Zijin suddenly realized that she couldn’t even remember clearly how Chen Jun, whom she had gotten a divorce with less than a year ago, looked like.


This man before her could make any woman fall in love with him. It was just that when the blooming Qiao Zijin saw Qiao Nan, who was standing next to Zhai Sheng, she felt particularly uncomfortable. Did this mean that what the old neighbors said was true? Qiao Nan got close to the Zhai family and she stood a chance at marrying Zhai Sheng?


Qiao Nan didn’t say anything. Due to Zhai Sheng’s presence, it wasn’t convenient for Ding Jiayi to say anything to Qiao Nan either. When Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng stood together, Ding Jiayi subconsciously got closer to Qiao Zijin as if she was finding an ally. What Ding Jiayi didn’t know was that Qiao Zijin actually wanted to get closer to Zhai Sheng more now.


It was a pity that Qiao Zijin wasn’t so gutsy.


To be honest, Qiao Nan really didn’t look good. Her relations.h.i.+p with her dad wasn’t as good as that in her dreams. At this moment, Qiao Nan didn’t even have the energy to ask how Qiao Dongliang got injured out of the blue and was sent to the hospital.


Thankfully, after an hour, the doctor came out. “Don’t worry. There’s no problem with the operation. What the patient needs next is to recuperate well. Also, the patient isn’t young anymore. You should pay more attention to him when at home and give him more calcium supplements. It’s still alright this time. When he gets older in the future, it will not be a trivial matter anymore if he suffers a fall like today again.”
