Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

At this moment in the hospital, Qiao Dongliang was around. As a result, Ding Jiayi hardly dared to throw her tantrum. But her gaze toward Qiao Nan remained cold with hatred. “If you still have a little bit of conscience, you’ll be good to Zijin and take good care of her after knocking her down this time. Remember that you owe Zijin!”

“Bullsh*t!” Qiao Dongliang answered on Qiao Nan’s behalf. “Are you dreaming? No wonder Da Bao said that Zijin was the one who ran out and knocked into Nan Nan’s car. Actually, you two have been planning this, right? You’re amazing. More than ten years ago, when Nan Nan wanted to attend the college entrance examination, she pushed you out so that you would get trapped under someone’s wheel. You were hospitalized for several months. Now, to take money from Nan Nan, you’re so vicious to push Zijin out again. Just for that sum of money, you two are willing to sacrifice even your lives!”

Qiao Dongliang’s face was as black as thunder. “There’s no need for Nan Nan to answer you. I’ll give you an answer directly. More than ten years ago, the two of you put up a good show together, causing Nan Nan to miss the college entrance examination. But in the end, Nan Nan still became the top scorer in the college entrance examination. Now, ten years later, Zijin was the one who ran in front of the car to get knocked down. Let’s be clear. What’s Nan Nan’s responsibility, she won’t shirk it. But if you want Nan Nan to provide for Zijin for the rest of her life, don’t even think about it!”

A person who was perfectly able-bodied refused to work and thought all day long about how to get someone else to support her instead. No matter how one saw it, it was Ding Jiayi who taught Zijin this wayward manner. Without Ding Jiayi’s care and concern, Nan Nan had ironically become an outstanding person in her own right. She had even made extraordinary contributions to the community and state!

On the other hand, Zijin, who had grown up being pampered and spoiled by Ding Jiayi, was living the existence of a worm. It was not enough to have been supported while she was growing up. Now that she was all grown up, she was still looking forward to her sister supporting her! Idealistic! Too idealistic!

“Nonsense! That kid was lying to help Qiao Nan. He’s so good at lying at such a young age. You always say that my education methods failed and that I failed Zijin, but the person who really raised her children badly is not me. It’s her!” Ding Jiayi refused to admit or believe that that was the truth.

She felt that it was Qiao Zijin’s good fortune to have been knocked down by Qiao Nan. And it just so happened that her injuries were not serious, and she would not die.

Now that everything was exposed, she had to take up the responsibility. What was wrong with asking Qiao Nan to provide for Zijin? Even if she could not provide for her, she was still going to take this opportunity to make some money off Qiao Nan. Whether it was a monthly payment or given in a lump sum, she and Zijin would be fine either way. She would not be picky about that. Whatever was convenient for Qiao Nan.

“Nan Nan?” Qiao Dongliang could no longer be bothered to retort Ding Jiayi. “Have you thought about how you’re going to deal with this? Won’t you lose out?” He believed that Da Bao would never lie just to help Qiao Nan. But this had happened so suddenly that he did not know if there would be any witnesses who could help prove Qiao Nan’s innocence and prove that Qiao Zijin had purposely run in front of the car.

Without clear evidence, there was no way Nan Nan would be able to get herself out of this situation even if she was truly innocent.

Qiao Nan looked up and said calmly, “Don’t worry, Dad. Just like the last time, nothing will happen to me. There were many people around when this happened. Just now, there were already people who stood up for me to prove my innocence. They said that they personally saw Qiao Zijin run out and wait for my car. Qiao Zijin said that she didn’t want to live anymore. The doctors and nurses who were trying to save her can vouch for me that Qiao Zijin was trying to commit suicide by running in front of my car. It wasn’t me who knocked her down. Besides, when the incident happened, I looked around and saw that there were CCTVs around the area.”

With so much evidence that could prove her innocence, what was there to worry about?

Money?

She was only prepared to pay for Qiao Zijin’s hospital bills. As for anything else, even just an extra dollar, it would depend on her feelings. She would have to consider that further.

Qiao Dongliang’s shoulders relaxed. “Really? It’s great if that’s the case. I won’t have to worry about you anymore.” With so many witnesses and solid evidence, Qiao Dongliang knew that Qiao Nan was not trying to comfort herself. There was really no way that Qiao Zijin’s accident could be blamed on her. “Wait a minute. Did you say that Zijin said that she didn’t want to live anymore? Did she really say that?”

So it was not just for a scam. Zijin was tired of living and thus deliberately intended to die under Nan Nan’s wheel!

Why? Why did Zijin have to do that?

Zijin was doing all right, so why did she suddenly want to end her life?

As soon as he thought about this, Qiao Dongliang quickly remembered what Qiao Zijin had been up to recently. All right, she might not have been doing all right. Zijin had committed so many evil deeds against Nan Nan. Now, karma was biting back at Zijin. “Nan Nan, what do you plan to do about the previous incident?” Did Nan Nan really intend for Qiao Zijin to go to jail?

Qiao Dongliang knew that Qiao Zijin absolutely deserved to go to jail. But he was still the father of these two vastly different daughters after all. If any of them were bullied, Qiao Dongliang’s heart would still be uneasy.

“There’s nothing much.” Qiao Nan was used to Qiao Dongliang being softhearted to his daughters to the point of neglecting any moral obligations, so she was hardly affected emotionally seeing Qiao Dongliang act in this manner again. In fact, she was completely numb. “If Qiao Zijin ran in front of my car just for this matter, I can only say that Qiao Zijin is scaring herself. If I really meant to do anything, she would have received my lawyer’s letter long ago.”

Her method of ‘you’re weak, so you have a reason’ was truly too cruel and easy to use. Don’t belittle the power of moral kidnapping. Even a grown man would have to kneel before it!

She was a national cadre with a perfect family, a perfect life, and she was even rich.

Qiao Zijin was jobless, a vagrant, and a divorcee. Even though the court awarded her custody of her child, she sent her daughter back to her in-laws because she could not afford to raise her child.

Even if Qiao Zijin had been the cause of everything, and even if Qiao Zijin had been the only one in the wrong from the beginning, it was especially because of this contrast that she would be scolded and beaten up if she were to legally pursue Qiao Zijin and send Qiao Zijin to jail.

Qiao Nan did not want to ruin her reputation in such an unjustified manner just for Qiao Zijin.

The reason Qiao Nan could be promoted through what seemed to be a demotion was her ability to see the big picture, putting the reputation of the state before herself and being less concerned about her own personal feelings. With such a great performance, how could Qiao Nan’s superiors not acknowledge her efforts?

If Qiao Zijin had not taken the initiative today, she would never have bothered to deal with Qiao Zijin about this matter.
