“...” Ding Jiayi was dumbstruck throughout. When Qiao Dongliang was filling his mouth with the meat, she could not wait to jump out of her bed so that she could cover Qiao Dongliang’s mouth and stop him from eating.

Qiao Dongliang had finished the food. What was she going to eat?!

After leaving the confused Ding Jiayi behind, Qiao Dongliang left calmly. When he was back, Ding Jiayi was still looking as dumbstruck as before. “Old Qiao, did you do that on purpose? Two years ago, you met with a car accident too and you ate so well. Now that I’ve become like this, do you have to treat me in this way? Do you still hope that I can recover faster from my injuries?”

After some time, when Ding Jiayi came to her senses, she realized that Old Qiao must have seen through her mind. He thus did this deliberately and refused to let her have a mouthful of meat!

It was an afternoon in summer. After eating and drinking to one’s fill, it was especially easy to snooze.

In contrast to Ding Jiayi’s furor, Qiao Dongliang looked relaxed and casual. “Do you feel that you’re suffering?”

That was an understatement. Who would not feel unjustified after encountering such a matter?

“Do you feel that you’re pitiful?”

Of course!

She was afraid that there was no other woman who was more miserable than her in this world.

“Watching others enjoy delicious food while you can’t even taste any of it. I suppose your heart, liver, lungs, spleen, and kidney feel unwell?”

Ding Jiayi gritted her teeth. “Old Qiao, what exactly are you trying to say?”

Every word that Old Qiao said at this moment was spot on. Every word was akin to a pierce in her heart.

As such, Ding Jiayi felt even more unjustified and pitiful. She was uneasy all over.

“It’s right that you are feeling and thinking this way. It means I have done it correctly.” Qiao Dongliang looked cold and icy. Ding Jiayi could not help shivering when she saw the chilliness in his eyes. “Three years ago, when I brought Nan Nan to the hospital, the doctor told me that Nan Nan was malnourished. Do you know how I felt then?”

“...” Ding Jiayi stiffened. Her jaw dropped and her mind simply went blank.

“At that time, the money for Nan Nan’s meals and living expenses came from me. Didn’t you treat Nan Nan this way? In your hands, Nan Nan had lived in this way for seventeen years. You have only been through this for two weeks and you can’t take it anymore?” Qiao Dongliang did not bring up some things but it did not mean that he had forgotten about them.

“I was aware of how Nan Nan became malnourished in the past. I gave you face and didn’t quarrel badly with you. Thereafter, I discovered that, as an adult, you don’t even have the basic self-awareness and shame. I don’t know where your moral values have gone to. You actually don’t feel that you’re wrong to have done that. So, I’m the one who intervened too much, was too harsh to you and too indulging toward Nan Nan. Fine, let’s put you in other’s shoes now. I want to see what your reaction will be.”

“You’re really taking revenge on me because of Qiao Nan, that wretched girl?” Ding Jiayi’s face turned crimson. That face was as swollen as a pufferfish.

“Revenge?” Qiao Dongliang chuckled. “You seldom use such an accurate description. This kind of treatment can be considered retribution.”

Ding Jiayi’s face turned as white as a sheet. She was unable to speak for a long time.

If Qiao Dongliang’s actions were considered as a form of revenge for Qiao Nan on Ding Jiayi, then what could be said of the way Ding Jiayi had treated Qiao Nan for over ten years?

It was intended torture!

Next, Qiao Dongliang and Ding Jiayi did not speak a word to each other. Both maintained their silence. They did not look at each other anymore. Ding Jiayi simply turned her back to Qiao Dongliang.

Ding Jiayi bit on to her clothing. Old Qiao was resolute in divorcing her. He even wanted to seek justice for Qiao Nan, that wretched girl, before the divorce.

For the past two years, that wretched girl must have been continuously badmouthing Zijin and her in front of Old Qiao. This wretched girl was too evil at heart!

If she were to truly divorce with Old Qiao, that wretched girl would be elated. She was not going to grant that wretched girl her wish of monopolizing Old Qiao.

Shi Qing had been watching Qiao Nan prepare meals every day.

When she heard that Qiao Dongliang had asked Qiao Nan to prepare only a set of meal without that of Ding Jiayi, Shi Qing was happy. “Ah, Qiao Nan, Brother Zhai has not returned to the army camp. You’ve not seen him for almost two weeks. Don’t you feel worried or anxious? Don’t you wish to know what Brother Zhai has been busy with recently? Maybe there will be good news.”

All the unlucky matters were things of the past. Qiao Nan’s good fortune was coming and good things would come rolling in. One had to trust her. She was having such a premonition.

When Qiao Nan was bringing out the dishes for dinner, Shi Peng was almost home. “There’s only one or two matters that Brother Zhai will be busy with recently.” Brother Zhai had not returned to the army camp because of the matter that happened during her college entrance examination. Was that appropriate?

Qiao Nan was worried that if the investigation was to drag on, it would be disadvantageous to his situation in the army. At this very moment, another woman was feeling deeply jealous of Qiao Nan.

“Brother Zhai, we have known each other for so many years. We’re childhood sweethearts. Do you have to be so harsh on me?” Qiu Chenxi said this through the cracks of her teeth. Before she could cause any harm to Qiao Nan, she had got herself implicated.

Zhai Sheng looked at Qiu Chenxi coldly. “Childhood sweethearts? Where did your confidence come from?” Toward these two words, Zhai Sheng had never admitted them.

“Fine. We grew up together. Isn’t that right?” Zhai Sheng had gotten a handle on Qiu Chenxi. Qiu Chenxi could not afford to go tough on Zhai Sheng. “This time, can you let me off? Let our Qiu family off. I can promise you that I won’t intervene in Qiao Nan and your matter anymore. I won’t go and harm Qiao Nan anymore.”

“No.” Zhai Sheng rejected her immediately. “What we’re talking about now is not just the grievances between us. It is a grave matter that involves the interests of the nation, albeit you dealing with Nan Nan is part of the issue. Since I have found out about this, I can’t take my hands off it. Your dad and your Qiu family has eroded national interests and forsaken the trust that the party and country placed on you. This matter certainly can’t be condoned!”

“If it’s not because of Qiao Nan, would you pay so much attention to our Qiu family and me?!” Qiu Chenxi felt extremely angry and resentful.

If Brother Zhai had not been keeping a watch on the Qiu family for so long, how could such a thing happen?

Her father was audacious. In order to return to Ping Cheng earlier and move to the capital, he could do anything!

“Talking about this matter, I really have to thank you. If you hadn’t said those words, I wouldn’t have been able to prevent so much damage to the country in time.” Qiu Chenxi was truly a daughter that could do her father in. Without Qiu Chenxi, Zhai Sheng would not have discovered that Qiu Qin was so audacious. He dared to steal the cultural relic that belonged to the country and sold them to overseas buyers.

At the thought of this situation, Zhai Sheng’s eyes became much sharper. “You should be very clear that, by doing this, your father is no different from a national traitor.”
