Chapter 136: Hoping for May–December Romance

“Really?” Qiao Nan’s eyes lit up. “Can you help me now—Wait, are you really so kind?” Wang Yang was not the type who would be kind to anyone.

“Believing it or not is up to you. Do you really want me to help you contact him?” Wang Yang snorted.

“Yes!” Qiao Nan knitted her brows. “When can you give me a reply?”

“You can wait. Even if I manage to contact Zhu Baoguo now, it would probably take some time for Zhu Baoguo to get back to you. You can go home and wait.”

“…” Qiao Nan clenched her fists. “Are you playing a prank on me?”

“Again, believing it or not is up to you.” With this, Wang Yang simply left.

When he was further away, Wang Yang turned his head back and gave Qiao Nan a glance. “Pey, what are you? Just take your time and wait! You won’t die of anxiety!”

Wang Yang was deliberately making fun of Qiao Nan. He saw that Qiao Nan was very anxious and purposely said that to delay her. Even if he could not do anything to Qiao Nan, it was good enough to make her feel disgusted. Well, Qiao Nan was the one who disgusted him first.

Wang Yang was happy, but Qiao Nan felt like she nearly lost all her hopes.

After Wang Yang left, she had the feeling that Wang Yang would not help her contact Zhu Baoguo. Even if she chased over to ask him for Zhu Baoguo’s contact, Wang Yang would definitely not reveal it to her.

There was no one else in the Lee family’s residence now, and Zhu Baoguo was also not at home. Besides, the Qiao family’s situation was tantamount to having severed ties with their relatives. Since it was such a huge sum of money, who else could she request to borrow from? She could not possibly just let it be and leave her father to die.

For a moment, Qiao Nan panicked. Tears pooled in her eyes as she cried very miserably.

At this time, Zhai Sheng, who was resting in the army camp’s office after training a batch of new recruits, heard the phone rang before he could take a sip of warm water.

Zhai Sheng drank his water as he picked up the phone. His voice sounded deep and resonant. “Hello.”

“…”

There was no sound from the other end of the phone, and Zhai Sheng could hear a deeply suppressed breathing. When he heard a sob, Zhai Sheng tested and asked, “Qiao Nan?”

“Zhai… Brother Zhai…” Right after she called Brother Zhai, Qiao Nan broke down emotionally.

“Don’t cry first. What happened?” Zhai Sheng put down his cup and sat up properly.

“My… my dad was hit by a car.” Qiao Nan was crying till she could hardly talk, causing her speech to be intermittent. Fortunately, Zhai Sheng was good at listening and understood her.

“Your dad was hit by a car and is in the hospital now?” Knowing that Qiao Nan was definitely very emotional now, Zhai Sheng spoke for Qiao Nan. After he received a snuffled affirmative reply, he continued to ask, “Do you need a lot of money?”

It seemed that all of the Qiao family’s money had been spent on the elder daughter so that she could attend The High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China.

Uncle Qiao was hit by a car and the surgery fees alone would be a major expense.

“Yes…” Qiao Nan bit her lips and did not want to cry. When she heard Zhai Sheng’s voice, she was not sure of the reason, but her tears could not stop falling—she simply could not stop crying.
