Chapter 1602: Saving Her Life

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

In truth, even if the person who had been sent into the emergency room was Qiao Zijin, the real victim here was actually Qiao Nan! Qiao Nan was the one who needed compensation. It was Qiao Zijin who had brought this upon Qiao Nan!

Now that her plan was almost ruined, how could Ding Jiayi not be furious and want to tear apart Da Bao, who had just spoken the truth?

Ding Jiayi was different from Qiao Dongliang. Qiao Dongliang loved his grandchildren, while Ding Jiayi only liked her granddaughter, Zhou Ying. Ding Jiayi, who had favored males over females her whole life, ironically did not care for her grandsons, Da Bao and Er Bao. Just like how she hated their mother, Qiao Nan, Ding Jiayi hated these two children.

Seeing Ding Jiayi’s fierce attitude toward Da Bao, Qiao Nan sneered. It turned out that Ding Jiayi did not entirely favor males over females. She had heard that Ding Jiayi loved that daughter of Qiao Zijin. So, it was true that Ding Jiayi truly loved Qiao Zijin, even though it was also true that Ding Jiayi had instilled many incorrect world views in Qiao Zijin while she was still growing up.

It was at this moment that Qiao Nan suddenly realized that she did not really care for such a complicated and complex love from her mother. She would much rather go down her old path than be spoiled with maternal love from Ding Jiayi, who had taught Qiao Zijin all those warped ideas of the world.

All those skewed ideas that Qiao Zijin had were all because of Ding Jiayi. As compared to receiving maternal love, she much preferred to be a normal person. She was living a much better life than Qiao Zijin now.

Seeing Ding Jiayi reprimand Da Bao, Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng quickly shielded the triplets behind them, making it even more convenient for Qiao Dongliang. Qiao Dongliang was already rather strong. Now that he was raging, he lifted Ding Jiayi off the floor with just one arm. “Try saying just one more word! I’m telling you that the triplets are my life! If you even say one more word about them, much less touch them, just wait and see how I’ll deal with you! Believe it or not, I’ll let the doctors have more to do after they save Zijin. They’ll have to save you too!”

Since this was a hospital, even if he punched Ding Jiayi aggressively, Ding Jiayi could immediately be sent in for an operation.

Ding Jiayi’s face momentarily paled. The duo had known each other and been married for more than thirty years, but it was the first time that Qiao Dongliang had been so fierce toward her. How could Ding Jiayi not be afraid in the face of such a ferocious Qiao Dongliang?

“Can your family members please lower your voices? This is a hospital. There are still operations going on inside. If you continue with your shouting, it’ll distract the doctors inside. If you don’t stop this, we’ll have to call for security to escort you out.” The nurse from the operation theatre could no longer hold it in and came out of the operation theatre to warn these people outside.

With that said, the nurse returned to the operation theatre to continue with the ongoing surgery.

“Humph!” Qiao Dongliang snorted coldly while releasing Ding Jiayi’s collar from his hand. With a loud thud, Ding Jiayi fell straight to the ground with her buttocks taking a great hit. Ding Jiayi felt as though her buttocks had split into a million pieces and her tailbone hurt so badly that tears flowed down.

“Mom.” San Bao leaned closely on Qiao Nan. She had never expected to meet her grandmother for the first time under such circumstances, and neither had she expected her grandmother to be such a person. After hearing her grandmother use such vicious words against her mother, San Bao hated her grandmother. Just a few days ago, this old woman was nothing but an ordinary stranger to them.

But now that they had addressed this woman as their grandmother, they realized that not all elders were friendly and kind like their paternal grandparents, great-grandpa, or master grandpa. There was also another kind like their ‘grandmother’. The kind that evoked hatred.

“It’s all right.” Hugging her daughter’s body, Qiao Nan’s cold heart warmed up slightly. No wonder Brother Zhai refused to leave. It seemed like Brother Zhai had already anticipated that Ding Jiayi would throw a tantrum here. “Brother Zhai, why don’t you send the triplets home first?” Her father had already arrived. Even if Ding Jiayi wanted to make a scene, her father would have to grant Ding Jiayi permission to do so.

Although her father did not treat her as well as he treated the triplets, there was no doubt that her father would never allow Ding Jiayi to hit or scold her. He would have his eyes firmly on Ding Jiayi.

The couple had once been husband and wife, and they were of the same generation.

If Qiao Dongliang were really to get into a fight with Ding Jiayi, Qiao Nan, as their daughter, knew that she would not bother to advise Qiao Dongliang to save his strength or even to stop fighting. When faced with people like Ding Jiayi, Qiao Nan had nothing to say.

“I’ll come and accompany you in the hospital after I send the children home.” Now that Qiao Dongliang was here, Zhai Sheng could indeed leave for a short while with no worries. But Zhai Sheng would never agree to leaving Qiao Nan alone in the hospital. As for the children, there were still his parents at home. Besides, the triplets were already junior high school students. As long as there was food for them, the triplets could more or less take care of themselves without external help.

“Dad, just send Er Bao and San Bao home. I’ll stay here with Mom.” Da Bao was unwilling to leave. In the short span of a day, he had experienced for himself the power of his ‘grandmother’ and ‘aunt’. Da Bao could not bear to leave his mother with any of these two ‘powerful’ figures.

His mother was truly unfortunate to have such a mother.

If his father had not been around earlier, and if his grandfather had not shielded his mother, there was nothing his mother could have done, other than hiding, when that old woman pounced on her. Unfortunately, his mother was a national cadre who represented the image of the country. No matter what, there was no reason for children to physically fight their elders.

Da Bao understood this, but he was still deeply resentful. The law was based on human relationships. Why did this not apply to his mother?

Now that he had seen Ding Jiayi’s sloppy side, how could Da Bao rest easy knowing that Qiao Nan would be with Ding Jiayi? Although Qiao Dongliang would still be around even if they were to leave, Da Bao was still uneasy.

“Be a good boy, Da Bao. Go home with your father. It’ll be fine here. I’ll be able to return soon too. You guys should just go first.” Feeling her son’s concern, Qiao Nan’s cool fingertips warmed up considerably. She had known for a long time what kind of people Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin were. There was really no need to be emotionally affected by these two people.

“It’s not suitable for you to stay here. Don’t worry. Mom will be fine with your grandpa here.” If her biological father was not around, even Qiao Nan herself would be unwilling to stay around Ding Jiayi at such a time.

Leaving aside how dangerous it was, just looking at Ding Jiayi made Qiao Nan’s eyes hurt, especially after hearing Qiao Zijin’s completely distorted logic. What kind of genius was Ding Jiayi to have been capable of teaching Qiao Zijin these things?
