“After the chat, we’ll reply to the hospital tomorrow so that you could undergo surgery quickly. We can’t drag this any longer. If we don’t say anything tomorrow, the hospital might act first.”

“Yes.” Qiao Zijin nodded nervously. “Mom, why don’t we do this? After discussing with Dad, call the hospital immediately and tell them we want that kidney and ask them to please arrange a kidney transplant for me as soon as possible.”

“Don’t worry. Mom has always placed your matters first in my heart. There won’t be any problem.” Ding Jiayi wanted to claim the credit. She felt that she had persuaded Qiao Zijin and wanted to prove her sacrifice to her. As such, Ding Jiayi happily entered Qiao Dongliang’s room. “Old Qiao, Zijin has agreed to it.”

“You’re too much as well. You’re already a grandfather, but your temper is worse than Zijin’s. You don’t act like a father at all.”

“Agreed to it?” Could it be that he had seen Zijin wrongly just now and she could still be saved? “Which method did she choose?” As long as it wasn’t the third, everything else was still easy to say. However, the third was a dead end. Zijin shouldn’t have chosen that either.

“What other methods are there? Of course it’s the second one.” Ding Jiayi sat on the bed and looked at the main house with nostalgia in her eyes. Ever since Old Qiao knew what kind of environment Qiao Nan had been living in for the past ten years, he threw a temper at her. Until now, she was still sleeping in that small room.

Since she had resolved Zijin’s matter this time around, Old Qiao should be appeased and would agree to her moving back again, right?

Really, they were already an old couple but sleeping separately. Weren’t they afraid that others would see them as a joke, or Zijin, their daughter, would know about this?

Qiao Dongliang was happy at first. Then, he asked suspiciously, “Zijin is willing to sell her big house?” If Zijin really chose the second method, this was considered good news for Qiao Dongliang. This meant that between money and parents, Qiao Zijin still felt that parents were more important.

It was just that Qiao Zijin had broken his heart not too long ago. Qiao Dongliang didn’t dare believe within a short period of time that Qiao Zijin would become filial again, that while cherishing her life, she would think that it wasn’t easy for her parents.

Ding Jiayi slapped Qiao Dongliang’s back. “Old Qiao, why are you such a blockhead? Why is it that only the big house can be sold but not the quad? Didn’t you just want to stay with Zijin so that if anything happens to us in the future, Zijin can take care of us? Zijin said that we are left with only her. After selling the quad and she has recovered from her illness, our family of three will stay in the big house.”

Upon mentioning the big house, Ding Jiayi’s face glowed. “Old Qiao, after the renovation, you haven’t been to the big house, right? You don’t know how big and beautiful that house is. It’s on the eighteenth floor, and it feels good to see it being so up high. I really didn’t expect myself to have such a blessing when I’m old. Look at how competent and capable Zijin is. I think if I can live in such a big house, I’ll wake up smiling even in my dreams.”

She had said long ago that when she and Old Qiao were old, they could only rely on Zijin. It was really better to bring up one child rather than two children.

After getting such an answer, Qiao Dongliang felt that he was on a roller coaster ride. After reaching the peak, he plummeted to the bottom. “Competent?” Upon mentioning this, Qiao Dongliang was so angry that he laughed. Indeed, he shouldn’t have expected anything from Qiao Zijin, his daughter. “Did Zijin let you stay in that house? Indeed, it belongs to Zijin. However, Nan Nan provided you the money to buy that house, right? Did Zijin fork out a single cent? The house that was bought with Nan Nan’s money belongs to Zijin. Now that she’s letting you stay in it, it becomes Zijin’s credit. Only you can say such words.”

She was so biased. Old Ding had lost all sense of rationality and IQ.

“...” Ding Jiayi felt uncomfortable. She was used to praising Qiao Zijin. When she said those words just now, Ding Jiayi really didn’t remember how that big house was bought. In her impression, that big house completely belonged to Qiao Zijin. “Why are you so calculative? Isn’t it fine as long as Zijin is filial? So what if Qiao Nan knows how to earn money? It’s useless if she’s unfilial. Look at how good Zijin is. She even lets us stay in that big house.”

“Nan Nan is unfilial? If Nan Nan’s unfilial, how would you, a person who doesn’t go to work, be able to provide Zijin the money to buy the house? Zijin married well. Did Zijin buy this quad? Old Ding, I only realize today that not only do you not have any conscience, but you’re also heartless. I’m going to sleep now. Get out of here!”

Qiao Dongliang couldn’t be bothered to talk to Ding Jiayi anymore. Anyway, to Ding Jiayi, Qiao Zijin, who had contributed nothing to this family, was someone godlike. In this world, only Ding Jiayi was capable of giving birth to such an unparalleled daughter.

Ding Jiayi, who was pushed, almost fell to the ground. Ding Jiayi didn’t understand. “Old Qiao, what’s wrong with you? I even helped you put in a good word in front of Zijin. Why are you throwing a temper? What am I working so hard for? It’s all because of you and Zijin. You’re even scolding me now. Since when do I not have any conscience?” She was really being wronged.

“You have given all your conscience to Zijin. Do you not understand that I want you to get lost? Do you want me to drag you out?” After knowing Qiao Zijin’s final decision, Qiao Dongliang had given up.

It was still that same sentence. It was up to Qiao Zijin how she wanted to consider things. As for the quad, he had his own arrangement. Nobody else’s words mattered.

“You...” Ding Jiayi was both angry and anxious. “Old Qiao, can you stop making trouble at this time? Zijin’s illness can’t wait, and neither can the hospital. I have to call the hospital quickly and get them to arrange the kidney transplant for Zijin. Otherwise, the hospital will give that kidney to someone else.”

Old Qiao looked angry. What were his thoughts on selling the quad to stay in the big house?

At this time, Ding Jiayi felt inconvenient. If she had known there would be such a day, she would have registered the quad under her own name back then. That way, she didn’t have to discuss with Old Qiao and could just sell the quad directly to provide Zijin money for her treatment.

Qiao Dongliang pulled up the blankets, flipped over, and faced Ding Jiayi with his back. “If you have the money, then make the call. I’m not stopping you from making this call.”
