Chapter 41 - 45

Chapter 41: Refuse To Admit

Qiao Zijin, who was washing the dishes, paused for a while. Thereafter, her facial expression was awkward. "No, Nan Nan's fever had nothing to do with me."

"But Qiao Nan said?" Ding Jiayi heard what Qiao Nan said. She had definitely not done this, nor had Old Qiao . There were only four people in the house, so it must have been the elder daughter.

"Is what Nan Nan said certainly true? Mom, don't forget that Nan Nan's fever was so bad that day. She was sick and confused and mistook her dreams for reality. Nan Nan is paranoid, you mustn't become like her."

Qiao Zijin swiped her hands. "Mom, think about it, Dad just found out that we spent all the family savings so that I could study at The High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China. If he also knew about Grandpa Li, he would be even more furious. We should try our best not to let Dad get angry again. Just now, Dad did not mention Nan Nan's dream. You should not take it to heart, nor should you mention it to Dad anymore. There is no such thing, Nan Nan was talking about her dream, don't blindly believe and get involved. You think there aren't enough matters to provoke Dad?"

Only God knows that when Qiao Nan mentioned what happened on that rainy night, immediately, Qiao Zijin was so frightened that her heart was in her throat.

Fortunately, her father did not continue to pursue this matter. If not, she might let the cat out of the bag.

Qiao Zijin was afraid of Qiao Dongliang, but not Ding Jiayi.

After Qiao Zijin's coaxing, Ding Jiayi was no longer bothered about whether Qiao Nan's words were true.

There were enough troubles at home now, there would be no end if they pursued this matter again.

Qiao Dongliang heard Ding Jiayi shouting for dinner time. Initially, he was not willing to come out of the room. He was furious with Ding Jiayi.

But when he recalled that the doctor said the younger daughter was malnourished, Qiao Dongliang called Qiao Nan out. "Nan Nan, you're at your puberty age, don't be at odds with your body, the two of us - let's go and have our meal."

"Okay, Dad."

Qiao Nan immediately agreed. Although she was at odds with someone, no matter what, she should not be at odds with herself.

The family of four were seated together. Qiao Dongliang did not cast a single look at his wife or elder daughter. He was only focused on filling Qiao Nan's bowl with the good dishes, and repeatedly told her, "Nan Nan, eat more, you must eat your fill, you're too skinny."

"I know, Dad. You work so hard, eat more too, don't shortchange yourself."

Qiao Nan also helped herself and filled Qiao Dongliang's bowl with all the meat and vegetables.

In the past, the same plate of meat could feed the family for two or three meals. Now, it was like one meal as Qiao Nan tried her best to eat as much as she could.

The whole family scrimped and saved, in the end, the money were all spent on Qiao Zijin. What a waste.

When she saw that the Dongpo meat, which she had specially prepared to celebrate her elder daughter's return, was almost finished by the father and younger daughter - there were only three pieces left, Ding Jiayi felt the pinch. "Zijin, you eat too. You studied hard, and should eat more good stuff."

As she said that, Ding Jiayi placed one piece of meat into Qiao Zijin's bowl, added another, then placed the last piece in her own bowl.

When she looked at the two pieces of meat in her bowl, Qiao Zijin moved her mouth. She felt very unhappy.
