Chapter 2212: The Problem of Conditions
She no longer needed to use her brain and think about such complicated and troublesome issues.
Indeed, in this lifetime, she wouldn’t be able to get along well with Qiao Nan.
“I should say that all of us think this way. You always reach out for a yard after taking an inch. You’re selfish and don’t have any gratitude at all. Treating you well is the same as farmers rescuing snakes.” In the past, Nan Nan treated Zijin too well. That was why she was bullied. Her boyfriend was snatched away and her house became Zijin’s.
“Heh…” Qiao Zijin laughed coldly. “Sure, you’re Qiao Nan’s good father. I’m the common enemy that both of you want to deal with. In this world, I, Qiao Zijin, am the worst and the most ruthless. Will that do? So be it that I can’t continue to stay here. Do you think I cherish this house a lot? This is such a small house. I’m about to suffocate to death. I’ll move out. Once you leave tomorrow, I’ll move out immediately!”
Qiao Nan wanted to be hostile toward her? In her dreams!
Not too long later, Qiao Nan would be begging her. She didn’t believe that Qiao Nan didn’t have any thoughts at all or wasn’t afraid the slightest bit that Wang Yang was reluctant to let go and wanted to get back all of the Zhu family’s inheritance. One had to know that Wang Yang was Zhu Chengqi’s biological nephew. After Zhu Chengqi died, according to the proof of family relationship, Wang Yang’s mother was the first legal heir.
If Wang Yang grabbed hold of this point to fight a lawsuit with Qiao Nan, it wasn’t that he didn’t stand a chance at winning at all.
She would wait and see how afraid Qiao Nan would be when she found out that she couldn’t get a single cent of the Zhu family’s inheritance. She would appear again only when Qiao Nan was desperate. By then, she didn’t believe that Qiao Nan wouldn’t agree to her proposed conditions. When the time came, Wang Yang would give her five million yuan and she would get at least five million yuan from Qiao Nan.
With ten million yuan, she wouldn’t stay in either the capital or Ping Cheng. She was going to live in a new city and start a new life. She had had enough of these so-called relatives. They were always looking at her strangely and saying words of sarcasm to her.
“I hope you can do what you say.” Knowing that Qiao Zijin was losing her temper, Qiao Dongliang’s attitude didn’t soften. On the contrary, he wanted to agitate Qiao Zijin such that she would really move out of this house with him tomorrow.
Qiao Zijin was so angry that her teeth produced a creaking sound. She turned her back to Qiao Dongliang and didn’t bother about him anymore. When night fell and knowing that Qiao Dongliang was asleep, Qiao Zijin stood up and left the room. She went outside to make a call.
It was already nine at night. Ding Jiayi was very surprised to suddenly receive Qiao Zijin’s call. “Zijin, it’s so late now. Why aren’t you sleeping but calling me?” As this was a long-distance call, Qiao Zijin had always complained that it was expensive and would rather send voice messages to Ding Jiayi.
Initially, Ding Jiayi didn’t know how to send voice messages. However, Qiao Zijin insisted. As they used voice messages, Ding Jiayi started to slowly learn as well. As such, when she received a long-distance call from Qiao Zijin at night, Ding Jiayi was shocked. “Didn’t your dad say that he would return after celebrating the full month of Qiao Nan’s triplets? Which day’s train ticket did he buy? I’ll go fetch him then.”
The second day Qiao Nan’s children were born, Ding Jiayi already knew from Qiao Zijin that their plan had failed. In reality, Ding Jiayi had more or less guessed that this would be the result as well. There was no choice. Ever since Qiao Nan ran away from Ping Cheng, Ding Jiayi realized that Qiao Nan had become lucky. She encountered only the good things and there was nothing bad.
It was dangerous to give birth to children. Qiao Nan was forty years old and gave birth to triplets. If it was someone else, five out of ten women would have died. However, Qiao Nan was lucky. She belonged to the lucky half who managed to survive. Nobody could do anything about Qiao Nan’s good life and good fate.
Ding Jiayi didn’t mention another point to Qiao Zijin. It wasn’t that she despised Qiao Zijin but it was simply because she was someone with a past. Zhai Sheng’s conditions weren’t bad. When she first knew that Zhai Sheng was going to marry Qiao Nan, Ding Jiayi thought it was a bad joke made by others to deliberately mock her. The problem was that no matter how inferior Qiao Nan was, she was still a forty-year-old virgin. She usually behaved well and didn’t like to run outside at night. She prepared her own meals daily, knew how to earn money, and didn’t spend a lot of money. She was the kind of daughter-in-law whom women her generation would like.
When she looked at Qiao Zijin again, Ding Jiayi really liked her as a daughter and she doted on her well. She felt that Qiao Zijin was the best daughter in this world. However, if she wasn’t her daughter but daughter-in-law, would Ding Jiayi want her? Ding Jiayi shook her head. She really couldn’t afford such a daughter-in-law.
Only Ding Jiayi could see the goodness in Qiao Zijin. Others couldn’t see it at all. Ding Jiayi kept saying that Qiao Zijin was good. She knew that other people’s eyes weren’t as good as her own and thus couldn’t see the good in her.
As such, Ding Jiayi felt that Qiao Nan wasn’t compatible with Zhai Sheng and it was impossible for Zhai Sheng to want her. Then, after Qiao Nan’s death, regardless of whether it was Zhai Sheng himself or other members of the Zhai family, wanting to marry Zhai Sheng would be a big problem that Qiao Zijin couldn’t solve.
It wouldn’t be easy for Qiao Zijin to marry Zhai Sheng if Qiao Nan was dead, let alone Qiao Nan wasn’t dead. Qiao Zijin didn’t need to think about the position of the chief’s wife.
“Mom, your daughter is about to be bullied to death. You still have the mood to sleep? Mom, are you still my mom? Why don’t you feel heartache for me? Mom…” As Qiao Zijin said, she started to cry. She cried very pitifully and hoped that her mom would feel sorry for her, just like in the past. “Mom, I’m really bullied so badly. Mom, I miss you. Only you treat me the best in this world. Other people are all insincere toward me!”
Although her mom loved money, she still treated her as her daughter, unlike her dad, who only knew how to obtain benefits from her. He took money from her so readily. However, when she ran into trouble, he didn’t have the slightest awareness that he was her father. He even forced her to move out of the house.
If her conditions were as good as Qiao Nan’s, would she continue staying at the Zhai family’s house and not leave?
