Chapter 1816: Selling the House

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Besides, the two of them were old acquaintances. Why had Sister Qiao never mentioned it?

“From the quad in Ping Cheng?” That could only be fate! The surname ‘Qiao’... Zhai Yaohui thought about it carefully for a while. There had indeed been such a family. “Your mom and I got here yesterday and happened to chance upon this news...”

“Yes, that’s the family. Qiao Nan is their younger daughter.” Zhai Sheng was clear about the Qiao family’s news. Now that technology was so advanced, Zhai Sheng could simply do a quick search on the internet to find out about the latest news in Ping Cheng. As such, Zhai Sheng knew the gist of the latest happenings regarding the Qiao family because he wanted to understand Qiao Nan better.

Qiao Zijin was indeed sick and had contracted uremia. If she did not undergo a kidney transplant, she would die sooner or later. As for what the Qiao family said about their younger daughter taking all of the family’s money and running away, that was the truth too. But what was different was that the reporter’s in-depth investigation had revealed that the younger daughter had gotten into a car accident herself and had not fully recovered from it.

Their two daughters had been hospitalized at the same time. Their elder daughter had never been left alone, but not a single person had gone to take care of their younger daughter even when she was toeing the line between life and death! Even when their younger daughter finally awoke from her coma, the Qiao family’s concern toward her was simply preparing three meals a day for her. And that had been because they thought that the food provided by the hospital was too expensive and was not worth their money. They had only prepared her meals to save money.

In fact, the money that their younger daughter had ‘stolen’ was her own money! She had not earned it through working but had almost exchanged her life for it. It was the compensation she had gotten from the car accident. The funniest thing was that not only had Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin taken this sum of money as their own, but they had even wanted one of Qiao Nan’s kidneys!

Through an ‘anonymous interview’, an insider had revealed that the Qiao couple had forced their younger daughter to donate a kidney to their elder daughter in order to save their elder daughter. They had not cared about the health of the younger daughter, who had not even fully recovered from her car accident.

In front of Qiao Zijin, Ding Jiayi and Qiao Dongliang were undoubtedly perfect parents, who, like all other parents, sacrificed all they had in order for their children to lead better lives. But when Qiao Nan’s situation was exposed, Ding Jiayi’s and Qiao Dongliang’s praise-worthy performance were now being denounced.

Their younger daughter was nothing more than a money-making tool and an organ-storage device for their elder daughter. If their elder daughter got sick and needed a repair, they would simply get it from their younger daughter. In the past, it had been said that once the cloning technology matured, everyone could own their own clones. That way, they would have backups in case any of their organs were to fail.

But the Qiao family had been even more brutal. Instead of getting a clone, they had simply given birth to a second child in case anything went wrong with their elder daughter. Their second child led such a pitiful life!

Knowing that there were too many things going on in the Qiao family that their viewers would never be able to accept, the television went through a tremendous amount of effort to return all the donations to each and every donor. After learning about the truth, all those donors felt as though they had been taken for a ride by the Qiao family and were incensed.

Some felt that it was right that their money was being returned to them, while others expressed their desire to donate their money nonetheless. But instead of donating to help Qiao Zijin, they would like to donate to help Qiao Zijin’s sister, Qiao Nan.

The Qiao family’s small courtyard had been sold once to fund Qiao Zijin’s education, but Qiao Nan had worked hard and earned enough to purchase it again. Thereafter, Qiao Zijin’s house had been entirely paid for by Qiao Nan too.

The family had two properties under their names, but Qiao Nan had been forced to live in a rental apartment, with nothing to her name up until now. In fact, whatever she had now was nothing more than the compensation that she had nearly given her life for. It was ridiculous not to donate to someone like that.

These people were still willing to donate their money, but the television station was unwilling to receive their donations. They had had countless interactions with the other three people from the Qiao family, but they had never interacted with Qiao Nan, who had been scolded the most harshly in the beginning. Because of their own mistake, Qiao Nan had been maligned for a good few days. The thought of Qiao Nan made the staff from the television station feel guilty.

Besides, now that Qiao Nan had left, the television station’s staff had no idea where Qiao Nan was now, how to get in contact with her, or how to hand the money over to her. If they were really to accept the donations but had no way of handing the money over to Qiao Nan, they might very well get themselves into trouble and even be accused of misappropriating the funds.

Because of the twists and turns in this piece of news, it had been particularly sensationalized and had received a tremendous amount of attention. The Qiao family’s story was more interesting than a soap opera! There seemed to be no end to it!

Even people who could just return to Ping Cheng, like Zhai Yaohui and Miao Jing, had found out about the Qiao family by switching the television on. One could only imagine how ‘hot’ the Qiao family was in Ping Cheng now.

Someone had recognized Qiao Dongliang as Qiao Zijin’s father as he was doing his grocery shopping and had said, “Oh, here comes the cheater. I’m sorry. We’re just a small business. We don’t have that much money for you to scam. Besides, we’ve worked hard for this money. Will you spare us and go scam someone else?”

Such mockery utterly humiliated Qiao Dongliang. He had never intended to scam anyone. Qiao Dongliang had never agreed to having others donate for his daughter’s medical bills. It was true that their family was not rich, but they did have a house that they could sell for cash.

In short, the Qiao family was not so hard up that they needed someone to donate to them. Qiao Zijin could still keep her house if they sold the Qiao family’s small courtyard again. There would even be leftover money if they were to sell the house and use the money for Qiao Zijin’s treatment.

That was what Qiao Dongliang thought, but Ding Jiayi did not think in the same way. Although the Qiao family’s small courtyard had already been sold once because of Qiao Zijin, it had been an entirely different situation in the past. At that time, Qiao Zijin would never have been able to continue her studies or graduate from university if they had not sold the house. This time, even if they did not sell the house, they would still have enough money to treat Qiao Zijin with donations. In fact, they might even have money to spare!

With such a huge premise, why was there a need to sell the house?

Ding Jiayi had initially owned a key to Qiao Zijin’s house, but Qiao Zijin eventually changed the locks. That meant that unless Qiao Zijin handed over the keys to Ding Jiayi, Ding Jiayi and Qiao Dongliang would have no roof over their heads if they were really to sell the Qiao family’s small courtyard. If they did not want to live on the streets, they would be left with no choice but to rent an apartment like Qiao Nan had done in the past.
