Chapter 1576: No Way to Compete
The truth was, Qiao Zijin regretted it the moment her body collided with the car. She was in so much pain that her facial features were contorted. “Qiao Nan, get down. Tell me. Are you playing tricks? Where’s my mother? Where did she go? Dad as well. I want to know where they are staying now!”
After sitting at the gate of the quad for a long time, Qiao Zijin felt that it wasn’t a coincidence that her mother would suddenly move out. This meant that someone was playing tricks. Apart from Qiao Nan, Qiao Zijin couldn’t think of a second person who would do that.
Since Qiao Nan had done this, she would definitely know where her parents were. She had to find them quickly. Otherwise, she might not even have a place to stay tonight.
Qiao Nan rolled down the car windows. “Mom guessed that you would find her, thus she moved out. As a child, I think that I should respect Mom’s wishes. Of course, I know you won’t believe it. You can contact Mom on this number. Go and ask her yourself if you have any questions.” Qiao Nan placed the number she had prepared beforehand into Qiao Zijin’s hands. Then, she loosened the clutch, stepped on the accelerator, and slowly drove into the quad.
Qiao Zijin wanted to enter as well, but it was a pity that she was immediately stopped by the guards.
Qiao Zijin stomped her feet. She took the paper with the number and made a call. “Hello? Mom? Why didn’t you tell me that you moved out? Where are you staying now? I’ll go to find you.”
“Stop looking for me. I’m living in a house rented by Qiao Nan. It’s not suitable for you to stay. I’m Qiao Nan’s mother, thus she has to provide for me. You’re just Qiao Nan’s sister. She’s not obliged to provide for you.”
“Mom, did Qiao Nan teach you these words? It’s the same regardless of how many people are living in the house. I’m living in your house and not Qiao Nan’s house. How is it that she’s providing for me? I’m staying at my mother’s house. This has nothing to do with her. Mom, don’t be fooled by Qiao Nan. Where are you? I’m about to die from the heat. I’m tired, sleepy, and hungry. Mom, I miss you.”
Ding Jiayi felt that Qiao Zijin’s words seemed to make sense but also seemed not to make sense. “No, don’t look for me in the future. I won’t tell you where I’m staying now. Zijin, I’ve raised you up. I’ve stopped expecting you to provide for the old me. You have never thought about providing for me and long wanted to push me to Qiao Nan, right? Isn’t this just right now? I can promise you that whatever happens in the future, I will definitely not look for you or ask you for money. You just have to lead your life in the future. You don’t have to worry about me at all.”
She should have already played her part as a parent. She raised Qiao Zijin up and didn’t require her to provide for her. How much heart and money had she saved for Qiao Zijin?
“Moreover, Zijin, let me tell you something. When you’re free, go and take a look at the newspapers in the capital from the past few days. Zijin, don’t blame me. As your mother, I’ve really done enough for you.” After saying this, Ding Jiayi hung up the call.
For her eldest daughter, she had completely offended her youngest daughter.
Because of that little blood relationship, her youngest daughter didn’t completely abandon her and ignore her. However, whenever they met face-to-face or talked over the phone, Ding Jiayi could feel that in Qiao Nan’s eyes, she was no longer the mother who had raised her up.
None of her daughters were close to her. She thought of how she was living and eating well now. However, she lived alone in such a big house. When she was feeling lonely, there was no one for her to talk to. Ding Jiayi felt sour in her heart.
Old Qiao was really not going to forgive her and reconcile with her. Even if it was just to live with her and not remarry her, Old Qiao didn’t agree to this. He wasn’t even willing to see her.
Back then, she was worried that Zijin would be too close to Old Qiao and not close with her. After she grew up, she would only listen to Old Qiao’s words and not hers. That was why she taught Zijin all those nonsensical stuff. However, when Zijin was really working against Old Qiao, she did help Old Qiao put in a good word in front of Zijin.
It was Zijin who had grown up to be as such. How could Old Qiao put all the blame and responsibility on her? Qiao Nan as well. Five fingers were not of the same length. In a family with more than one child, which parent wouldn’t be biased toward one of them?
Everyone went through such times. Why was it that when it came to Qiao Nan, it looked as if she was the one who had done something sorry to her? It was obvious that Qiao Nan wasn’t magnanimous enough and she was too calculative. In the end, didn’t Qiao Nan continue her studies and even graduated from university?
No one understood the bitterness and heart of a benevolent mother. Ding Jiayi felt depressed that these negative emotions couldn’t be dispelled. If Qiao Nan were like other children and listened to her words, then their family of four would definitely be leading a good life. Everyone would be talking and laughing happily when having a meal together. They would be living in a good house with good financial conditions. What a blessing that would be.
However, such a happy family was destroyed by the petty Qiao Nan. Until now, she still couldn’t like such an inconsiderate and insensible daughter. Qiao Nan’s temper was too bad!
Ding Jiayi felt unhappy in her heart that she couldn’t meet Qiao Zijin and even had to publish a clarification note that she had cut off all ties with her. Ding Jiayi, who was in a bad mood, started to scold Qiao Nan vigorously! She felt that that the person who had caused everything today and destroyed a happy family was Qiao Nan. She was the Qiao family’s biggest source of trouble. Back then, she really shouldn’t have given birth to a second child!
Qiao Nan didn’t know about Ding Jiayi’s thoughts. However, even if she did know, she was already used to it. The problem was that after knowing, she would definitely not let Ding Jiayi lead such a good life anymore.
“Peng Yu, are you sure you want to do this?” Father Peng had on a pained expression. After having a grandson, he was no longer that ambitious. Now, he just wanted to spend his remaining days happily. Father Peng had given up on all his career ambitions completely. Zhai Sheng and Zhai Yaohui were part of a lineal descent through the ages. When Old Master Zhai was still alive, he was formidable. His son and grandson were formidable as well.
He had inadvertently met Zhai Sheng’s two sons twice. Both of them were outstanding.
He heard that they were now in junior high school and their grades were good. They could speak a few foreign languages and were bold. From afar, the two boys from the Zhai family started to look manly.
