“Did you hand me a blank script because you’re unwilling to study and learn more knowledge? It seems like you were so insistent on studying simply for the sake of a degree to package yourself well.”

Qiao Zijin’s purpose for studying had been so superficial. And for that, Qiao Nan, who actually enjoyed studying, had lost her childhood, as well as her chance of studying, just to work hard to support her sister. That was too unfair! He had been blind!

“…” Qiao Zijin was speechless. She couldn’t understand why the topic had suddenly gone to Qiao Nan’s leaving school again when they had been talking about taking care of others. Was there a point in doing that?

“Dad, it’s been so many years. So what if Qiao Nan couldn’t go to school? Hasn’t she become the chief’s wife all the same? There are thousands of female university graduates in this world, but how many chief’s wives are there? Not studying doesn’t seem to have made much impact on Qiao Nan’s life. Perhaps, Nan Nan herself doesn’t even mind and has already gotten over it. On the contrary, you always bring this matter up. Maybe it’s making Nan Nan upset thinking about the past. Why bother?”

If her dad brought this up in front of Qiao Nan, it would just evoke Qiao Nan’s hatred. But she couldn’t afford to let her relationship with Qiao Nan deteriorate any further. It had to improve.

Her dad was really… Even if he couldn’t be of any help, why did he have to do these things that only got in her way? “Dad, I bought an old hen. Why don’t you teach me to make soup? That way, I can bring it to Nan Nan.”

Gifts blinded the eyes. She refused to believe that Qiao Nan would continue treating her like an enemy if she were to send delicious soup to the hospital every day to nourish her. She might not have treated Qiao Nan well in the past, but she had changed for the better. Now, she really regarded Qiao Nan as her younger sister and would treat the three children no different from how she treated Feng Feng.

Others would feel her sincerity with time.

“Forget it. I’d better do it myself. I’ve seen the chicken. It’s indeed an old hen, and one that has laid eggs. If you don’t use it well, you might end up wasting it. I’ll do it myself.” Qiao Dongliang still had his doubts about Qiao Zijin, but he could not deny that Qiao Zijin had bought the good stuff indeed. He didn’t want Qiao Zijin to waste such a good product.

In reality, every single cent that Qiao Zijin was spending now was actually Qiao Nan’s in Qiao Dongliang’s eyes. What was wrong with Qiao Nan eating what she bought with her own money? This had nothing to do with Qiao Zijin’s kindness. It was what she was obliged to do.

“Dad, shall I accompany you to the hospital?” Zhai Sheng was probably still in the hospital taking care of Qiao Nan, right? Qiao Nan was pregnant and about to give birth. That was something almost every woman underwent. The huge difference was that Qiao Nan had a good husband, Zhai Sheng, by her side the entire time.

If Chen Jun had shown just a tenth of Zhai Sheng’s care when she had given birth to Chen Feng, she might never have started an affair. No, what she should say was that if Chen Jun had bothered to do that, he wouldn’t have kept a mistress outside, causing her to cheat on him as well just to get revenge for his betrayal.

“No, I’ll visit her myself.” Qiao Dongliang refused. “Nan Nan’s health is the most important thing now. She has to remain in a good mood. Do you think Nan Nan will be able to be in a good mood when she sees you? Besides, you don’t even know how to take care of a pregnant woman. You’re just creating more trouble for everyone. We’ll have to teach you everything. We don’t have the time to do that.”

Qiao Dongliang had already witnessed how ignorant Qiao Zijin was in this aspect. If she really wanted to take care of a pregnant woman, she should have read some books, at the very least. But thinking about the blank script that Qiao Zijin had handed to him, Qiao Dongliang had already lost all hope.

Qiao Zijin hadn’t even been serious about her studies for her own sake. How could Qiao Dongliang expect Qiao Zijin to do that for Qiao Nan?

“Fine, I won’t go if you don’t want me to. But you have to let Nan Nan know that I was the one who bought this old hen specially for her to nourish her body. Dad, didn’t you say that actions speak more than words? I’m already doing it and showing my care for Nan Nan. You have to do your part and let her know too. I can’t be bothered to do good deeds anonymously. I want Nan Nan to know that I’ve really changed for the better.”

She had already spent her money anyway. If Qiao Nan misunderstood that her dad had bought it, she would have wasted her money!

As long as Qiao Zijin didn’t visit the hospital and get in Qiao Nan’s way, there was no reason for Qiao Dongliang to refuse. “Don’t worry. I’ll tell Nan Nan that you bought this hen for her. You’d better stay at home and not run about. And you’d better not follow me to the hospital. Otherwise, you can forget about calling me your dad.”

Qiao Dongliang was truly afraid that Qiao Zijin would ruin Qiao Nan’s mood by appearing in front of her.

The doctor had already said that Qiao Nan had to remain in a good mood at all times. As Qiao Nan’s stomach grew bigger and the months passed, the expressions on those around her only grew darker. As the days went by, the day of the three children’s birth was imminent.

Now that Qiao Nan had passed her eighth month of pregnancy, there was a possibility of the three children being born any day. Now, they couldn’t afford for Qiao Nan to get provoked or get upset at all!

Qiao Dongliang understood this in his heart. Unfortunately, he didn’t understand it thoroughly enough. Qiao Nan was eight and a half months pregnant and Qiao Nan could obviously feel that it was a great burden to her body to continue carrying the three children. Sometimes, she even felt that she was out of breath because of the children pressing against her.

It was especially the bouts of pain as her stomach fell gradually that unsettled Qiao Nan. Even in her dreams, Qiao Nan’s expression would often be set in a deep frown because of her children.

“Nan Nan, how are you feeling today?” Qiao Dongliang placed the soup on the table, wanting to pour it out as usual.

Seeing that Qiao Zijin had not followed Qiao Dongliang, Qiao Nan was slightly surprised. When had Qiao Zijin suddenly been so self-aware, deciding not to visit because she knew how much of an eyesore she was?

Zhai Sheng pinched Qiao Nan’s nose, reminding her to stop thinking about Qiao Zijin.. “Thanks, Dad.”
