Rebirth to a Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief

Chapter 1766: Strange

"Okay, stop being so long-winded. Call her now." Qiao Dongliang's words made Qiao Zijin feel uneasy. If she didn't hear Qiao Nan's voice and couldn't confirm if Qiao Nan would come over to the hospital tomorrow to do the kidney transplant, Qiao Zijin couldn't feel at ease at all.

"I'm calling now." Ding Jiayi knew Qiao Nan's phone number by heart. She was more familiar with her number compared to Qiao Zijin's. "Don't be anxious. You will see that in less than three seconds, this call will be connected and she will pick up the call."

Upon hearing the dial tone from the other side of the phone, Ding Jiayi appeared to be calmer than Qiao Zijin. After waiting for three seconds, the call wasn't picked up and Ding Jiayi frowned. "This wretched girl. She's so thick-skinned. She really thought that she could afford to be slower just because she ran into a car accident and stayed in the hospital once."

Qiao Zijin pulled her face and the uneasiness in her heart spread.

The dial tone kept ringing and the other party didn't pick up the call. Ding Jiayi looked embarrassed. "That wretched girl must have stuffed her phone in a corner and didn't hear it ringing or couldn't find it. Don't be anxious. I'll call again. This time, it will be connected."

As Ding Jiayi reassured Qiao Zijin, she called Qiao Nan's number again. The issue was that this time, Ding Jiayi didn't even get a chance to listen to the dial tone. There was only a mechanical recording that told Ding Jiayi that the owner of this phone number had already switched off his or her mobile and to try again later. "Switched… switched off?"

Qiao Zijin's face turned pale. "Mom, Qiao Nan switched off her mobile at this moment. What do you think she means by this? She should have heard our conversation regarding the kidney transplant before she ran into a car accident. She knows that I'm waiting for her kidney to save my life. She chose to disappear at this time. Does she want me to die and not want to save me?"

Seeing Qiao Zijin turn pale, Ding Jiayi hurriedly walked over and half-hugged her. "No, she wouldn't dare to. Zijin, don't be scared. As long as I'm around, I'll definitely protect you well and won't let anything happen to you. It's best if Qiao Nan donates her kidney to you. Otherwise, she has no choice but to do so as well. I'm her mother. I gave birth to her. She must listen to me. No matter what, wait for this kidney. I'll definitely get one for you!" If Qiao Nan cooperated, everyone would be polite toward one another. If Qiao Nan didn't cooperate, she would also have ways to get her hands on Qiao Nan's kidney.

Who asked her to be Qiao Nan's mother? If she wanted Qiao Nan's life, Qiao Nan had to give it to her as well, let alone a kidney!

"Mom, you have to save me. You must save me. Now, you're the only person who can save me." Her father hadn't been particularly good to her all along. Sometimes, he was biased toward Qiao Nan. As such, her father definitely wouldn't go all out to help her get her hands on Qiao Nan's kidney. At this time, only her mother was willing to do so for her.

Ding Jiayi felt like a heroine as her beloved daughter was relying wholeheartedly on her. She patted her chest and assured her. "Don't worry. I've said before that I would definitely not let anything happen to you. Wait obediently for my good news in the hospital. I'll grab Qiao Nan back. Tomorrow. I'll let you undergo the kidney transplant tomorrow!"

Ding Jiayi didn't consider at all if Qiao Nan's body was suitable to undergo a kidney transplant even though she was able to be discharged from the hospital after the car accident. She only wanted Qiao Zijin to live. Ding Jiayi didn't care whose life was required for Qiao Zijin to continue living. As long as Qiao Zijin didn't die, anyone who loved to die could just die.

"Mom, I'll wait for you." At this time, apart from this sentence and believing Ding Jiayi, there was nothing else Qiao Zijin could do. She knew that if she made a move, Qiao Nan might not bother with her and be willing to donate her kidney. Her mom was all her hope.

After pacifying Qiao Zijin, Ding Jiayi was like a proud soldier as she first went to Qiao Nan's rented house to take a look.

Ding Jiayi knew that Qiao Nan's landlady had a good relationship with Qiao Nan. Every time she went over to Qiao Nan's to get her living allowance, that old woman would always say that she should count her blessings for having such a filial daughter like Qiao Nan and that she shouldn't know how to cry only when Qiao Nan was gone and there wasn't anyone else to take care of her when she was old.

What nonsense!

She had such a good daughter like Zijin. Why would she need Qiao Nan to provide for her? It was already considered a relief if as parents, they didn't have to worry about Qiao Nan if she encountered trouble in the future. She felt that it was more realistic to dream than to rely on Qiao Nan to provide for her.

Ding Jiayi, who belittled Qiao Nan that much, completely didn't think of why she always used the living allowance as an excuse to keep getting so much money from Qiao Nan and even used this sum of money to buy Qiao Zijin a house.

This sum of money was enough for both Ding Jiayi and Qiao Dongliang to live comfortably in their old age. On the contrary, it was the boastful Qiao Zijin who had never given her parents any money at all. She had been taking advantage of Qiao Nan all this while instead.

When she arrived at Qiao Nan's rented house again, Ding Jiayi puffed out her chest and moved her eyeballs, as if observing the situation. In Ding Jiayi's eyes, Qiao Nan's combat effectiveness was nothing. Qiao Nan's landlady was much more ruthless. Although Ding Jiayi could get the money she wanted from Qiao Nan smoothly each time, she would always be criticized as shameless by Qiao Nan's landlady.

It was precisely because of this that Ding Jiayi changed her habits after that. Unless absolutely necessary, she wouldn't ask for money at Qiao Nan's house. She would call Qiao Nan and get her to send the money over to the Qiao family's courtyard after she had prepared it. One had to know that she was Qiao Nan's mother. This should be how Qiao Nan gave her money. How could she let her lead a tough life by making her go over personally to collect the money? She didn't see Qiao Nan wrongly. She was such an unfilial child who wasn't likable!

Ding Jiayi shrank her neck when she didn't see Qiao Nan's landlady. She quickly came to Qiao Nan's small stairwell door and knocked. "Wretched girl, open the door quickly. Let me in." This was the only way to avoid the eyes of Qiao Nan's landlady. "Quick. I'm calling you, wretched girl. Do you really think you're dead? It's just two steps away. Aren't you lying on the bed? Open the door quickly. If you go any slower and make me embarrass myself in front of your landlady, I'll teach you a lesson later."

Even if Qiao Nan was already in her forties, if Ding Jiayi wasn't happy and Qiao Nan disagreed with her words, she usually pinched Qiao Nan's body hard such that she became bruised.

In the past, when Ding Jiayi said this, Qiao Nan would definitely be very obedient. If Ding Jiayi said one, Qiao Nan wouldn't dare to say two. If Ding Jiayi said to go to the east, Qiao Nan wouldn't head to the west. However, it was really strange today. It seemed like Qiao Nan had suddenly transformed into someone with temper.
