Qiao Zijin was such a tattletale. She added fuel to the flames and ‘ratted on’ Qiao Nan.
“Alright, don’t mention this anymore. It makes my blood boils. Let’s hurry to the hospital. We would not want Qiao Nan to be the only one by your dad’s side when he wakes up later. If that really happens, your dad will definitely side with Qiao Nan and will only have eyes for her. If that comes to pa.s.s, you can forget about being in his good graces in the future.”
“You’re right, Mom. Let’s run there.” They dared not take any form of transport to the hospital as there was no money at home. They could only go there on foot.
By the time they ran all the way to the hospital, it was eight in the morning.
The first question Ding Jiayi asked Qiao Nan when she reached the hospital was, “Has your dad woken up?”
“No.”
“Phew, that’s not bad.” Ding Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Old Qiao had not woken up, Zijin still had a chance.
“Not bad?” Qiao Nan asked in disbelief. “Mom, what is good with Dad’s condition now?!”
“When did I say it’s good? I said it’s still early. The doctor said he must be under observation for twenty-four hours, so it’s still early.” Ding Jiayi denied having said ‘not bad’. “Alright, you have looked after your dad through the night. Your sister and I will take over from here. You can go back to rest.”
“Why would you ask me to take a rest again? Are both of you very sure that you can do a good job and look after my dad?! You had better not fall asleep and fail to inform the doctor when my dad shows signs of relapsing!”
“What do you mean?” Ding Jiayi paused momentarily and looked at Qiao Zijin. “Zijin, what happened? Why did your dad go into the operating room again?”
Qiao Zijin felt a twinge of embarra.s.sment and gave Qiao Nan a slight push. “I was too tired yesterday. I am well rested today, so there will not be any errors. Besides, Mom will be here with me. You do not have to worry. You had better worry about yourself.” They still did not know where Qiao Nan borrowed the money from. Anyway, their mother had said that whoever borrowed the money would have to return it themselves.
To think that Qiao Nan still wanted to continue with her studies… Dream on!
Not waiting for Qiao Nan to reject, Qiao Zijin gave Qiao Nan a hard push and closed the door shut as soon as Qiao Nan left the ward. “Qiao Nan, have a good rest at home, Mom and I will look after Dad. There will be no problem.”
Qiao Zijin leaned against the door, preventing Qiao Nan from opening the door and entering the room. She talked to her from the other side of the door.
After staying up the whole night, Qiao Nan was no match for Qiao Zijin.
After being pushed out of the room and having the door closed on her, Qiao Nan really wanted to give Qiao Zijin a good thras.h.i.+ng. If Qiao Zijin was not her biological sister, she wished she could chop Qiao Zijin with a kitchen knife.
But this was the hospital. Qiao Nan did not want to create a din lest she disturbed other patients.
Qiao Zijin did not care about disgracing herself, Qiao Nan did. She would not behave brazenly at the hospital. She could only leave and go back home to rest.
