When she heard Qiao Dongliang’s words, Qiao Nan was in shock and trepidation.

She had been Qiao Zijin’s sister for two lifetimes. Who could possibly be in Qiao Zijin’s heart? Qiao Zijin did not care about anyone but herself. Her father had just come back from the hospital yesterday and should rest for a few days before considering rehabilitation.

But Qiao Zijin was suddenly so concerned about her father. Furthermore, her father clearly did not fall down. Why did Qiao Zijin tell her that her father fell down and then asked her for help?

“Why?” Seeing that Qiao Nan’s expression had changed, Qiao Dongliang held on to Qiao Nan. “Is there any urgent matter so early in the morning? Don’t blame your sister. I am tired out from the walking, so your sister asked you to come along to help me.”

Qiao Dongliang misunderstood that Qiao Nan did not look happy because Qiao Zijin had disrupted her learning schedule today, angering her in the process. Hence, he tried to explain to her on Qiao Zijin’s behalf.

“Dad, I have something on and have to go home first. Sit here for a while. I will come back for you later.” Qiao Nan could not determine what the issue was, but she knew that Qiao Zijin certainly had an ulterior motive for having done so many things.

Qiao Zijin spent so much effort and made use of her father to deceive her to leave the house. Obviously, she was Qiao Zijin’s target today.

What did she have currently that made Qiao Zijin feel worthy of going to such great lengths?

Qiao Nan thought about it carefully. Other than that sum of money that Zhai Sheng gave her yesterday, there was no other possibility.

However, how did Qiao Zijin know that she had money?

Qiao Nan did not have time to think so much. She stood up and ran home.

At this juncture, Qiao Zijin, who seemed to have disappeared to the point of no return, ran out and stood in Qiao Nan’s way. “Nan Nan, where are you going? I can’t help Dad up on my own. Let’s bring Dad back together. Anyway, it’s still early today. Since it’s the vacation period, don’t always coop up at home to read books. It’s bad for the eyes. Let’s take a walk.”

No, she must stop Qiao Nan from going back now. What if her mother had not found the money?

“Where are the buns that you’ve bought?” Qiao Nan saw that Qiao Zijin was empty-handed. She was certain that there was a problem with Qiao Zijin. “Qiao Zijin, you are really ‘good’!”

“Where are you going?” Qiao Zijin was so scared that her face turned pale. When Qiao Nan was about to leave, Qiao Zijin pulled her back with all her might without care. “No, you can’t leave! I won’t let you leave!”

“Do you really think that I’m a pushover?!” Qiao Nan was red with anger. She did not hesitate to mercilessly bite Qiao Zijin’s hand that was grabbing onto her.

“Ouch!” Qiao Zijin shouted in pain loudly, quickly withdrawing her hand.

It was summer now and Qiao Zijin was wearing a short-sleeved top. Qiao Nan’s bite directly bit into her flesh. The teeth marks on Qiao Zijin’s arms were deep and obvious.

If Qiao Zijin had withdrawn her arms a little later, she would have bled.

“What are you doing?! What are the both of you doing?!” Qiao Dongliang was stupefied. Everything was fine earlier. In the blink of an eye, his two daughters started fighting with each other.

Qiao Dongliang wanted to stop them, but his injuries had not recovered and he felt extremely breathless after taking a few steps. He was thus unable to separate the two of them.
