1160 Turned Bad

Ding Jiayi knew that if Qiao Zijin were to really break up with Chen Jun and requested for compensation, the Chen family would not pay for the remaining two years of tuition fees.

Since the Chen family was not willing to fork out money anymore, Ding Jiayi started to ‘hit on’ Qiao Nan and make Qiao Nan support Qiao Zijin financially until the latter graduated and found a job.

With the Zhai family around, Ding Jiayi was not at all worried about Qiao Zijin’s job after graduation.

She made Qiao Nan do so many things but did not take action against Qiao Nan. Hence, she did not believe that Qiao Nan could take revenge on Qiao Zijin.

Could Qiao Nan do the reverse and get Qiao Zijin to help her find a job?

“Mom, after talking for so long, what you mean is that you won’t be giving me any money, right?” Qiao Zijin was not stupid. Of course, she understood what her mother was implying. Her face turned red. “Mom, when did you become so petty? The Chen family paid for all my tuition fees and living expenses this and last year. I did not take a single cent from you. You have no money? Mom, are you treating me like you treat Qiao Nan?”

When did her mother become so stingy toward her?

Ding Jiayi’s stinginess was like a warning bell for Qiao Zijin. It jolted Qiao Zijin awake with much shock.

Could it be that now that Qiao Nan was married to Zhai Sheng, her mother felt that her future life would definitely be worse than Qiao Nan’s? Hence, she no longer treated her as well as before?

All of a sudden, Qiao Zijin discovered that she had more than one crisis around her.

Chen Jun’s att.i.tude took a sudden turn for the worse. The once selfish yet unconditional mother’s love had now become so cheap and ludicrous.

The biggest problem that she had was not with Qiao Nan but Ping Cheng!

After making this phone call, Qiao Zijin secretly made up her mind.

The next day, Chen Jun checked out of the hotel. He did not even bother to look into Qiao Zijin’s room. He was only concerned about checking out from his room.

It was only until he got onto the train that he discovered that someone was already on the seat next to him.

Looking at the bare and pale face of Qiao Zijin, Chen Jun was quite surprised. “Didn’t you say that you haven’t had enough fun and wanted to remain in the capital?” When they came, Qiao Zijin said that traveling via a train took too much time. She had to take a flight.

Since train tickets were cheap, Chen Jun bought two of them.

He had thought that given Qiao Zijin’s character, she would most likely return the ticket and get a refund. She would then ask Qiao Nan for money and continue to have fun in the capital for some time.

If that was really the case, he would be freed from the ordeal then. He would have nothing to do with Qiao Zijin in the future.

He had been used to Qiao Zijin being muddleheaded. Once they were back in Ping Cheng, he would consider them to have broken up amicably. When he saw Qiao Zijin, one could imagine how shocked Chen Jun was.

“You’re already going back. Why would I still remain in the capital? We came here together. Of course, we should go back together.” Qiao Zijin smiled at Chen Jun, looking extremely gentle. There was no tinge of willfulness at all. “Chen Jun, are you still angry with me?”

Chen Jun put away the luggage in the overhead compartment and sat beside Qiao Zijin. “Angry? Why should I be angry with you? Last night, didn’t we already make ourselves clear?” They had already broken up. What was there to be angry about?

Would Qiao Zijin return him all the money that he spent on her previously if she knew that he was angry?

If that could happen, he was willing to tell Qiao Zijin that he was angry, extremely angry.

d.a.m.n. Who could endure the anger after doing such a money-losing business?

The lost money was not considered a big deal. What Chen Jun cared about most was the two to three years that he had wasted on Qiao Zijin!

“Chen Jun…” Qiao Zijin panicked. Chen Jun really wanted to break up with her. No, she would not agree to it. She would definitely not break up with him and let him be with another woman.

Ding Jiayi had imagined Qiao Zijin’s future to be so wonderful. This was on the pretext that Qiao Zijin could really find a young lad who was better than Zhai Sheng while she was at the Zhai family.

Without Qiao Nan, this layer of glow, it was as difficult as reaching the sky for Qiao Zijin to find someone better than Chen Jun, let alone a partner better than Zhai Sheng.

Since Chen Jun was the ‘best’ one that she could have, naturally, Qiao Zijin did not have a choice. She could only devote herself to retain this ‘best’ one to become her husband.

The moment the train started to move, Qiao Nan received news of their departure. “Fortunately, they have left. It is strange. When did Qiao Zijin become so easy to talk to?” She initially thought that Qiao Zijin would definitely employ all ways and means to stay behind and give her a headache for a long time.

Zhai Hua was playing with the game console in her hands. “Isn’t it good that she is willing to leave? Even if she is reluctant, Chen Jun is bent on leaving. Fortunately, Qiao Zijin’s brains have not deteriorated completely. As soon as she knew that Chen Jun was leaving, she left too.”

Chen Jun was Qiao Zijin’s mobile ATM.

Chen Jun was not cooperating with her now. Unless Qiao Zijin wanted to be a beggar, she would have to follow Chen Jun back to Ping Cheng. Did she have another choice?

“Right, I heard some news recently. Isn’t your mom very good to Qiao Zijin? This time, your mom refused when Qiao Zijin requested her to send some money over. What is happening? Your mom doesn’t have a lot of money but it doesn’t seem like she couldn’t fork out a single cent. Did she work for nothing for the past two years?”

Ding Jiayi had refused to give Qiao Zijin money. This was something that Zhai Hua was most surprised with. She could not figure out the reason as this did not resemble Ding Jiayi’s character.

Qiao Nan was having some fruits. “Qiao Zijin called my mom. How did you know so clearly about the content of their conversation?” It was as if Zhai Hua was listening by the side when Qiao Zijin was on the call with Ding Jiayi.

“Don’t look at me.” Zhai Hua shook her head. “I don’t know what Tian Dong learned in America. He is very strong in this area. Unless it’s something that I don’t wish to know, he will be able to find out everything else.”

She even suspected whether America had invented a new technology product or Tian Dong had installed ‘transcendental’ vision and ears on Qiao Zijin.

Otherwise, how did Tian Dong know what Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi chatted about so clearly?

After eating half a plate of fruits, Qiao Nan wiped her mouth with a tissue. “It’s a waste of talent to get Tian Dong to help me check on this. My mom, this person… I also can’t figure out why she is suddenly so stingy to Qiao Zijin now. In the past, my mom was the type who would definitely spend ten yuan to help Qiao Zijin buy new clothes although there were only ten yuan left in the house. Qiao Zijin would become the only one in our family of four who had new clothes to wear.”

Her mother was willing to give everything to Qiao Zijin.

Qiao Zijin contracted uremia and needed a kidney.

In the face of such a major surgery, her mother could also control the fear in her heart and was willing to give her kidney to Qiao Zijin. Now, Qiao Zijin only wanted to take a little sum of money from her mother.
