Chapter 1599: Three Birds with One Stone

The loud screech from the brakes was ear-deafening. Most importantly, there had been quite a few cars and passengers on the road who had all witnessed how the accident had taken place.

“Ah, she hit someone.”

“No, that person ran out on her own. She knocked into the car. The car didn’t knock her down. Do you think it’s a scam?”

“No way. Did that woman want to kill herself?”

Upon hearing this, some car owners turned pale. Once their car hit someone, it would be considered unlucky to continue driving that car. Anyone who had ever driven a car would naturally try to avoid getting into an accident. It was unfortunate enough if one accidentally knocked a person down, but it was even more unfortunate to run into someone like this who was trying to get knocked down in a suicide attempt!

“Sit in the car, the three of you. Da Bao, use my phone to call 120 then 110. Er Bao, stay with San Bao. Don’t worry. I’ll handle this.” Qiao Nan quickly unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car to check on Qiao Zijin.

She was sure that in the moment her car had knocked into Qiao Zijin, Qiao Zijin had deliberately lifted up her head to let Qiao Nan take a good look at her face. Qiao Zijin had smiled at her. Smiled!

In her previous life, Qiao Nan had been killed in a car crash. Truth be told, Qiao Nan had a fear of cars for a very long time. But Qiao Nan eventually went to get her license so as to send her children to school. No one would understand the difficulties she had to go through. For Qiao Nan, learning to drive meant overcoming her psychological barriers. There was nothing scarier than dying under the wheel again.

Unexpectedly, she had overcome all difficulties for the sake of her children. In this lifetime, she would not be the one pinned under the wheel. It was Qiao Zijin. No, she had not been driving quickly. It was even considered to be slow. Qiao Zijin should not be dead. She would not let Qiao Zijin die just like that. “Hold on. I’ve already dialed for the ambulance. They’ll be here in a moment. The doctor will help you staunch that bleeding and take care of your wounds. You’ll be fine.”

“Pfft…” Qiao Zijin spat out. She was in great pain, but her heart was leaping with joy and life. “Qiao-Qiao Nan, are you afraid now? Haha, ha. Aargh… You’ve just knocked me over and killed me. Qiao-Qiao Nan, I’ll make sure you’ll live with this guilt for the rest of your life. You’ll owe me in this lifetime. In the next lifetime, you’ll have to work hard to repay your debts to me because you owe me my life.”

“Because of that, you purposely ran out in front of my car?” Qiao Nan looked at Qiao Zijin in disbelief. “Are you crazy? What’s more important than your own life? Qiao Zijin, I’m telling you. If you really want to get your revenge on me, you’d better survive. Do you see how many people there are around here? I’m guessing there are probably cameras around too. I wasn’t speeding and you were the one who jumped out in front of my car. I’m not the one at fault. If you really die, I won’t even go to jail because of that. So you have to press on and survive to get your revenge on me.”

Qiao Nan thought that Qiao Zijin was willing to give up her life to get Qiao Nan into an accident so as to see Qiao Nan go to jail. But in fact, that was not the case.

Qiao Zijin shook her head with great difficulty. The blood that she spat out covered her entire face. “No, no. I don’t want you to go to jail. There’s no way you’ll go to jail. I-I want to become your nightmare, just like how you’ve been mine in these past ten years. Even if I can’t be your nightmare, I’ll be happy just haunting you. I won’t die in vain.”

She did not want to live anymore. There was no hope in her life. In the past few days that she had spent in hiding, what she had been afraid of was that she would be woken up by the police at her door. After having several nightmares like this, she decided that death would be preferable to going to jail.

There was no way for her to return to the Zhou family, and getting remarried was no mean feat either. Just thinking about living with Ding Jiayi put her off. She had said that she would never meet Ding Jiayi again and that she hated Ding Jiayi. That was all true.

She was afraid that she would have no other choice but to return to Ding Jiayi, but when that happened, she might only have a meal to eat. The thought of spending the whole day with the person who had ruined her life was excruciating. She might as well just die. She was afraid that after seeing Ding Jiayi, she would be unable to control herself and might very well just kill Ding Jiayi.

It was her mother, Ding Jiayi, who had wanted a second child when Qiao Zijin was three years old. She experienced how she would have lived if the second child had been a son. It was Ding Jiayi who had distorted her outlook on life again and again, causing her to grow up with a warped idea of the world. It had also been Ding Jiayi who had taught her to be lazy and not work hard. In the end, Ding Jiayi lectured her about how her life in the past had been perfect and how her own greed had ruined her perfect life.

At such a time, Ding Jiayi told her to cherish her life, to be satisfied with what she had, and that Qiao Nan was already taking good care of her, emphasizing that Qiao Nan had never owed her anything. Even if Qiao Nan was unwilling to support her, she had no right to blame Qiao Nan for that. Instead, she should accept it graciously and work hard to create a life that she wanted.

Hahaha, she was the greatest liar in the world!

How could Ding Jiayi be so shameless? What right did she have to say that? And most importantly, Ding Jiayi had told her all these way too late!

No matter how much Qiao Zijin hated Ding Jiayi, she was clear that Ding Jiayi had given birth to her and raised her, so she owed Ding Jiayi her life. Since it was so, she might as well return her life to Ding Jiayi. From now on, she would not owe Ding Jiayi anything. In her next lifetime, she would no longer want to be Ding Jiayi’s daughter. She would choose somewhere far away from Ding Jiayi and be reborn into the embrace of a normal mother to receive a normal education.

But in the end, Qiao Zijin could not take it lying down. When she was young, her results had been better than Qiao Nan’s, and she had been more outstanding than Qiao Nan in every way. Why had that all changed when they grew older? Good grades, a good man, a good job, even a good mentor—they were all Qiao Nan’s. She had nothing at all.

Seeing Qiao Nan live so well, she was upset. Even if she died, she would still hold that grudge.

And so, Qiao Zijin came up with such an idea, which was to knock into Qiao Nan’s car. In this way, she would be repaying all her debt to Ding Jiayi. Moreover, she would no longer need to live such a meaningless life. At best, she would leave her most hated Qiao Nan with a nightmare. At worst, Qiao Nan would at least be disgusted for a short while.

It was killing three birds with one stone!

Qiao Zijin felt that the one thing she had done right in her entire life was getting familiar with the route that Qiao Nan took every day, running in front of Qiao Nan’s car and dying under Qiao Nan’s car.
