Chapter 801 Don’t Think of Making a Fuss

In the past, Qiao Zijin was only responsible for cajoling Ding Jiayi with her words. Qiao Nan and Qiao Dongliang were the ones who respectively took on seventy and thirty percent of the actual work.

Today, these two people were not by Ding Jiayi’s side. Qiao Zijin could not behave in the same way as she did before—to only pay lip service without any action.

Qiao Zijin, who had shot herself in the foot, was so angry that her liver felt unwell. If she had known earlier that her mother would do this, she should have sweet-talked her mother less in this aspect. “Fine, I’ll stay back and keep you company, okay?”

She recalled that her mother could not wait to let Qiao Nan keep vigil for her father every night two years ago. It would do as long as she remained comfortably at home to study.

Looking at the situation now, true enough, her mother loved herself and not her, the elder daughter, most.

“Okay. Normally, your dad sleeps over there. You can do the same for one night. Don’t shun that place. Your dad has slept there for two weeks. Mom is just letting you sleep there for one night.” Knowing that her pampered elder daughter had not been through too many hardships, Ding Jiayi’s tone was good and she was also fawning a little on Qiao Zijin.

The more gains that Qiao Zijin had in the future represented how much enjoyment Ding Jiayi could have when she was old.

“Alright, I know. I only have one mother. How would I mind staying back to take care of you? It’s late. For the sake of your health, quickly lie down and sleep. I heard that one’s body will repair itself during sleep. You’ll recover faster if you sleep more. Hurry, go to sleep.”

Qiao Zijin was a little stubborn and did not let Ding Jiayi refuse. She held on to Ding Jiayi, made her lie down on the bed, and insisted that she went to sleep.

Seeing that it was only seven o’clock now, Ding Jiayi wanted to voice out that she was starving because she had not taken her dinner.

The reason Ding Jiayi knew that Qiao Zijin would definitely come and visit her today was because of a ‘ward mate’.

That ‘ward mate’ dropped in to visit Ding Jiayi. Initially, Ding Jiayi was unwilling to bother about that person. She turned her face and body away and simply faced the ‘ward mate’ with her buttocks.

The temper of the ‘ward mate’ was extraordinarily good. When Qiao Donglian apologized to her, the ‘ward mate’ even waved goodbye to Qiao Dongliang smilingly to express that she did not mind.

Next, Ding Jiayi felt that person press her forehead once with her finger. Subsequently, her pillow seemed to have lifted a little. It was as if that person had reached under her pillow.

When the pillow was back to its original position, that ‘ward mate’ then left.

Ding Jiayi found it strange. She turned over and placed her hands under the pillow. She then felt a small slip of paper.

When Qiao Dongliang went to the toilet thereafter, Ding Jiayi opened the slip of paper and read it. It was a note written by Qiao Zijin to her, saying, ‘Mom, I’ll visit you tonight. Think of a way to make Dad leave the hospital. Otherwise, I can’t appear.’

It was because of this slip of paper that Ding Jiayi restrained her ‘princess-like syndrome’ and was even so ‘caring’ to let Qiao Dongliang go back and rest for one night to replenish his energy and return tomorrow to take care of her.

wing that Qiao Zijin would be coming, Ding Jiayi was overjoyed. She allowed Qiao Dongliang to go home when it was only four o’clock in the afternoon.

She had totally forgotten that Qiao Nan delivered all the meals to her on the account of Qiao Dongliang. She was given the meals out of convenience.

Qiao Dongliang had already gone home for dinner. As such, Qiao Nan had ‘automatically’ neglected this meal of Ding Jiayi, who was in the hospital.

It was fine if Qiao Nan did not prepare anything for her. She had thought about it when she was beginning to feel hungry. Qiao Nan, this wretched girl, only gave her porridge to eat. Two weeks had already passed. When Qiao Zijin was here, she could definitely have some meat to eat!

It was a pity that the imagination was voluptuous but the reality bony.

Qiao Zijin came but the reality was that Ding Jiayi did not even have any porridge to eat, let alone meat.

Qiao Zijin’s attitude was too stubborn and Ding Jiayi was not good at rejecting Qiao Zijin’s words. In the end, Ding Jiayi could only force herself to go to bed with an empty stomach.

If she was asleep, she would not feel hungry. If she was awake, the feelings of hunger would only become more apparent and hard to bear.

Ding Jiayi had no choice but to use such a silly method to make herself forget her hunger.

Just as Ding Jiayi was in a daze and falling asleep, she suddenly thought of a problem. She had not eaten, so Qiao Zijin had not taken her dinner too. She could not possibly starve together with her, right?

Ding Jiayi, who was falling asleep, was indeed letting her thoughts ‘run wild’. Given Qiao Zijin’s character, would she let herself go hungry?

If she had not eaten, even if Ding Jiayi had already eaten, she would also make Ding Jiayi give her money and feed herself.

With the strong antiseptic smell in the hospital, Qiao Zijin kept feeling that the temperature in the hospital seemed to be colder than outside.

Clearly, it was the hot summer of July. Although they were just relying on an old fan, Qiao Zijin could also sense that chilliness and coldness. There were even goosebumps on her bare arms.

Qiao Zijin did not have a good impression of the hospital. She kept feeling she would be unlucky if she were to stay in the hospital for a long time.

Two years ago, she was willing to keep Qiao Dongliang company by his bedside because she felt safe when she was accompanying Qiao Dongliang.

However, she was keeping Ding Jiayi company by her side now. During the entire night, Qiao Zijin did not even sleep properly for an hour.

The next morning, Qiao Zijin glanced at the time and it was already five o’clock. The sun was rising. Without a word, Qiao Zijin stood up and leaned at the side of Ding Jiayi’s bed. Using a voice that was extremely soft, one that was only audible to herself, she asked, “Mom, Mom? It’s already five o’clock. I’ll go back first. When I’m available, I’ll visit you again. Then, I’m leaving...”

Although Ding Jiayi did not respond, Qiao Zijin had already finished talking to herself. Next, she left without any feelings of reluctance.

She had not forgotten that she had a date with Chen Jun today.

As such, when Ding Jiayi woke up, how could Qiao Zijin still be around? Qiao Dongliang was the only one who sat there like a stone statue without a sound. “Old, Old Qiao, you’re here? Did you see anyone here when you came?”

Could it be that Old Qiao had chased Zijin away?

“What? Who?” Qiao Dongliang did not understand. “Don’t tell me you’re trying to look for trouble again when all is well?” When he came, Ding Jiayi was the only one in the ward. There was no one else present. “Let me tell you. There is a lack of beds in the hospital now. You had a car accident and your injuries are more serious. That’s why you are allowed to stay in a room by yourself. Today, you will definitely have one more ward mate. Even if you mind, I have no choice as well. Anyway, the money in our family has already been squandered away by Qiao Zijin and you.”

She was not honest even after she was hospitalized due to a car accident. She made many requests, thinking that she was a rich man’s wife. Would all of her wishes be granted?

“No, no. Old Qiao, why would I think of it that way?”
