But Zhai Sheng’s worry was indeed necessary. When Ding Jiayi rushed to the hospital with disheveled hair, the first thing on her mind was not to ask about Qiao Zijin’s condition. Instead, she pounced on Qiao Nan fiercely. “You wretched girl! How can you be so evil? How can you be so cruel? No matter how wrong Zijin is, she’s still your sister. How could you knock her down? Do you want her dead? I know you want her dead!”
After hearing that Qiao Nan had knocked Qiao Zijin down, Ding Jiayi was ready to tear into Qiao Nan.
Qiao Nan was already living such a good life. On the contrary, her elder daughter’s life could not get any worse. Why was it that Qiao Nan could not let her elder daughter off? Why was it that her elder daughter had to die? She hit her with a car! A car!
How cruel did she have to be to do that! “Qiao Nan, I’m warning you. If anything happens to Qiao Zijin, I won’t let you off. I’ll sue you. I’ll sue you until I die. You have to pay for her death with your life! You’re a murderer! You evil b*tch!”
Qiao Dongliang, who just rushed over, happened to overhear Ding Jiayi scolding Qiao Nan. He did not have time to care about Qiao Zijin either and simply landed a tight slap on Ding Jiayi’s face. “Who are you scolding?”
Thinking about how Ding Jiayi dared to scold Qiao Nan like this in front of his three grandchildren, Qiao Dongliang fumed. “I dare you to say another word!”
“You’re heartless too! She knocked Zijin down! She wants to kill Zijin! Zijin is your daughter too. Qiao Nan is a murderer! How can you still help her at such a time? Zijin is going to die because of her! Don’t you pity Zijin?” Ding Jiayi cried out in pain. Her poor Zijin! Why did she have to suffer so much? Her Zijin was a good daughter! Why couldn’t the heavens see that and just let Zijin live a peaceful life? Why did Zijin have to go through trial after trial? When would everything end?
“Nonsense!” Qiao Dongliang was infuriated. “I’ve sat in Nan Nan’s car before. Nan Nan has been driving for so many years. She’s never sped, and she always drives carefully and slowly. Besides, I don’t believe that Nan Nan knocked Zijin down on purpose. Do you have a brain? How can you say such stupid things?”
Nan Nan had a perfect family with three obedient children. Her life could not get any better.
Would she give up on such a perfect life just to get revenge on someone she hated? Who would do such a foolish thing?
It was not that Qiao Dongliang wanted to belittle Qiao Zijin, but given the two sisters’ situation today, if Qiao Nan was a jade, then Qiao Zijin was, at most, a piece of rubble. Which piece of jade would try to touch a piece of rubble just to make the piece of rubble crumble? That would just be foolish. Moreover, Qiao Nan was a civil servant. She would never do anything illegal.
No matter how one looked at this, this was simply an accident, even if it was one that was hard to accept. How could it be so coincidental that the younger daughter’s car had knocked the elder daughter down?
Today, Da Bao had seen for himself how impressive his legendary ‘elder auntie’ was. Now, Da Bao had also seen how ‘amazing’ his maternal grandma was too. Da Bao was fuming with anger.
Da Bao took a step forward and stared menacingly at Ding Jiayi as though he was a tiger who had just come of age. “Don’t malign my mom! My mom didn’t knock her down. She rushed out suddenly and purposely threw herself in front of my mom’s car. My mom was only driving at thirty kilometers an hour. That’s not fast at all! Even the doctor said that her injuries were less severe than a normal victim of a car accident. But she didn’t want to live anymore and refused to let the doctors and nurses save her!”
At the mention of this, Da Bao grew even angrier. “She herself wanted to die and hit my mom’s car on purpose. I think we all know in our hearts who the truly evil one is. I don’t think I’ve seen anything like this before! Trying to drag my mom down even in her death!”
Who was the bad one? Who was the evil one?
He returned these words ad verbum to the woman who was lying in the emergency room.
He clearly remembered that woman saying that she had done it on purpose. She had purposely run in front of his mom’s car so as to gross her out and become a nightmare that his mom would never be able to get rid of her entire life. She was tired of living!
“You little beast! That’s your elder auntie! What kind of attitude are you showing me? You’re even lying to accuse your auntie? I’ll rip your mouth into shreds!” Ding Jiayi did not want to believe Da Bao’s words. She was even more unwilling to admit that Qiao Zijin no longer wanted to live and had run in front of Qiao Nan’s car on purpose.
On the way over, Ding Jiayi had asked a nurse about the condition of the female car accident victim. The nurse had clearly told her that the surgery was still in progress. But from the looks of it, her injuries had not been serious.
But there was nothing that was certain in medicine, and the nurse could not guarantee anything to Ding Jiayi, who was the patient’s family. The only thing that she could say was that Qiao Zijin’s injuries were less serious than a normal car accident victim’s.
Once the nurse said that, Ding Jiayi understood that Qiao Zijin’s injuries were not that serious. But she had still been hit by a car after all. The injuries could not be light. But as long as it was not a matter of life and death, that was enough for her. Thinking about Qiao Zijin’s pathetic state, Ding Jiayi felt that this car accident could even be Qiao Zijin’s chance to rise up from the ashes!
Since Qiao Nan was the one who knocked into Qiao Zijin, she would not be so shameless as to pursue all those things that Qiao Zijin had done in the past and send Qiao Zijin to jail after she recovered, right?
Qiao Nan was the one who had hit Qiao Zijin. Naturally, Qiao Nan had to be the one who forked out Qiao Zijin’s medical bills. Since Qiao Nan was so rich, she could not skimp on all the expenses and compensation after Qiao Zijin was discharged. This meant that Qiao Zijin could even strike a huge fortune after she recovered!
Once she had money, Qiao Zijin’s life in the future would be set.
Of course, she could even use this opportunity to make Qiao Nan agree to the two requests that Qiao Zijin had made earlier. Firstly, to give her a villa. Secondly, to give Qiao Zijin monthly living allowances.
If they could settle these matters, Ding Jiayi even felt that it was worth it for Qiao Zijin to have been hit by Qiao Nan.
While she was still downstairs, hundreds of thoughts raced through Ding Jiayi’s mind. They were basically all about how Qiao Zijin would gain a fortune from this incident. But the moment she reached the door to the emergency room and felt the somber atmosphere, Ding Jiayi’s emotions went through a hundred-and-eighty-degree change. All of a sudden, she flared up thinking about how Qiao Nan had hit Qiao Zijin.
So as to help Qiao Zijin gain more benefits after the incident, Ding Jiayi did not hesitate to blindly accuse Qiao Nan of deliberately hitting Qiao Zijin, maligning Qiao Nan of wanting Qiao Zijin dead.
Unfortunately, once Da Bao said his piece, Ding Jiayi’s initial plan fell out of the window. If Qiao Zijin had purposely jumped out in front of Qiao Nan’s car, to put it simply, Qiao Zijin bore a huge grudge against Qiao Nan. First, she had tried to ruin Qiao Nan’s reputation in the media. And now, she had hit Qiao Nan’s car on purpose.
