Rebirth to a Military Marriage : GOOD MORNING CHIEF

Chapter 141 - 145

Qiao Nan started to cry.

Even if Qiao Dongliang was biased, Qiao Nan knew that whether she could continue with her studies all depended on Qiao Dongliang.

If anything happened to her father, her mother would have the final say in the family.

Qiao Nan was reminded of the terrifying life she led in the previous life. It was just like a horrifying nightmare. Her tears tumbled down her cheek, falling onto the back of Qiao Dongliang’s hand.

While Qiao Nan bent her head and sobbed her guts out, she did not notice the slight twitch of Qiao Dongliang’s index finger.

By the time she lifted her head, there was no more movement in Qiao Dongliang’s fingers.

Qiao Nan stayed at the hospital throughout the night, looking after Qiao Dongliang. She dared not sleep at all. Her eyes were all red the next day from staying up all night.

While Qiao Nan was in the hospital keeping vigil over Qiao Dongliang, Qiao Zijin was having a good time at home. After eating whatever food available at home, she had a bath and went to sleep. As to why Ding Jiayi was not home yet, she did not give it much thought.

The next morning, Qiao Zijin heard sounds and jumped up from the bed. Did a robber sneak into the house?

“Qiao Nan!” Ding Jiayi shouted in displeasure. “Stop sleeping like a log. Hurry up and pour me a drink. Prepare today’s breakfast too. I will bathe and have breakfast before going to the hospital to visit your dad. Your sister has been keeping vigil by his bedside throughout the night. It must be very tiring for her, yet you are enjoying yourself here.”

“Mom, it’s me. Qiao Nan is at the hospital.” Qiao Zijin yawned and came out of her room.

“Why is it you? I wanted you to stay at the hospital and wait for your dad to wake up so that you will be the first person he sees. Why are you back at home! Are you a fool?!” Ding Jiayi was exasperated at Qiao Zijin. She slapped her on the shoulder. “You should not find it troublesome. If you want your dad to favor you once again, you have to put in some efforts. This cannot do!”

Mom, it’s painful.” Qiao Zijin grabbed at her shoulder in displeasure. “Don’t worry. We still do not know if Dad will wake up today.”

“What do you mean? What’s wrong with your dad?!” Ding Jiayi stiffened at Qiao Zijin’s words.

“Dad… Dad’s condition was not very good, and he went into the operating room again. Hence, I suppose he will not wake up so soon. We should be able to make it in time if we go to the hospital now.” Qiao Zijin dared not say that she dozed off as she was too tired, and it almost landed her father in serious trouble.

“Then, what are you waiting for?! Let’s hurry up to clean and wash and go to the hospital. Do you want your dad to treat Qiao Nan as his precious darling?!” Ding Jiayi did not elaborate further. She did not bother to use hot water. Instead, she used the water from the well to bathe and changed into her clothes at lightning speed. She then prepared some food and went to the hospital with Qiao Zijin.

“Mom, why did you come back in the morning?” Qiao Zijin couldn’t help but ask on the way to the hospital.

“Why else could it be? Wasn’t it because your dad got into an accident and I had to leave work earlier? My boss was unhappy with me and wanted me to make up for the time.” Ding Jiayi was indignant. “Qiao Nan was too much. I didn’t go back, yet she also didn’t look for me. If she was to look for me and said that your father’s condition was not that good, my boss would not have made me work throughout the night.”
