Chapter 1961: You Still Have the Cheek to Say
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ding Jiayi hadn’t thought of a solution yet. Qiao Zijin, who was very anxious, kept asking Ding Jiayi if the real estate certificate was found. Being pressed by Qiao Zijin, Ding Jiayi could only share this situation with Qiao Zijin so that she could help come up with ideas and think where else could Qiao Dongliang place the real estate certificate.
It wasn’t that Qiao Zijin was smart. It was just that Qiao Zijin always had that worry that the situation before her was really going to happen. Qiao Zijin’s first reaction was to ask, “Mom, Dad has always been biased toward Qiao Nan. Even if Qiao Nan left me in the lurch and took away all my life-saving money, his heart has never changed, let alone blamed Qiao Nan. He even finds me unpleasing to the eye. Mom, you said that you have searched through everything at home but still couldn’t find the real estate certificate. Could it be that he has already given the house to Qiao Nan? Before my surgery, didn’t Dad say that he already had plans for this house? Was his plan to give the house to Qiao Nan? Is he crazy?!”
Everything in the Qiao family belonged to her. It had nothing to do with Qiao Nan. On what basis did her father give her things away to others? They were hers!

Qiao Zijin turned pale. Indeed, her worries before her surgery came true. For things that weren’t hers, there would always be some changes. Only those things that had been firmly grasped in her hands were real. That’s why she wanted to sell the courtyard first before her surgery. “Mom, you said that before my surgery, Dad was not willing to sell the courtyard at all. Was it then that he had already given the courtyard to Qiao Nan? Tell me. When did Dad give the courtyard to Qiao Nan? Qiao Nan has no conscience. She doesn’t care about my life and death. She will similarly do the same to you and Dad in the future. Qiao Nan’s already like this, but Dad still treats her so well. What does he mean by this? Is Qiao Nan his birth daughter but I’m not?”
The more Qiao Zijin thought about it, the angrier she became. If he had long given the courtyard to Qiao Nan, then he definitely didn’t blame Qiao Nan for her departure. Otherwise, if her dad despised Qiao Nan for abandoning this family, why was it that when Chen Jun called to tell him where Qiao Nan was, not only did he not find Qiao Nan to get the real estate certificate back, but he even kept Qiao Nan’s whereabouts from her and her mom?
If her dad gave the real certificate to Qiao Nan after that… Upon thinking of this possibility, Qiao Zijin knew that she would definitely hate Qiao Dongliang to death. Qiao Nan ignored her life and death. She didn’t give her a kidney or money and couldn’t wait for her to die sooner. She was such a heartless person who ignored kinship, but her dad actually gave the courtyard, which was the only thing valuable in this house, to her?

Did her dad feel that what Qiao Nan did was right? Did her dad also think that she shouldn’t be alive and that she should die after getting uremia?
“Don’t be anxious and don’t overthink. Who said that just because I can’t find the real estate certificate, it means that your dad must have given it to Qiao Nan, that wretched girl? I don’t believe your dad’s that foolish. If he gives the house to Qiao Nan, does that mean he doesn’t expect you to provide for him in the future? Or is he expecting Qiao Nan to have him in her heart and that she would be willing to take care of him in the future? No, I think he must have hidden it.”
Ding Jiayi felt that Qiao Zijin was good and Qiao Nan was bad. She wished that she had never given birth to Qiao Nan before. After Qiao Nan ‘absconded with the money’, she felt that it was only natural that Qiao Dongliang’s mindset was the same as her own. They had to see Qiao Nan’s true colors clearly.
Everyone knew that Qiao Nan was bad. Even if Qiao Dongliang was a fool, he wouldn’t have given the courtyard to Qiao Nan. If he really did that, he wouldn’t be giving himself a good path to walk on.
This time, regardless of how Ding Jiayi persuaded her, Qiao Zijin couldn’t listen to her words. As soon as Qiao Dongliang was back, Qiao Zijin delved straight into the topic without saying another word. “Dad, did you give the real estate certificate of the courtyard to Qiao Nan?”
This question came too suddenly. Qiao Dongliang was not prepared at all. Although he didn’t answer with a ‘yes’, he also didn’t say a ‘no’ after a while.
Upon seeing Qiao Dongliang’s reaction, Qiao Zijin understood everything. As she cried, she made accusations. “Mom, you were still telling me that this wasn’t the case. Look at Dad’s reaction. It’s obvious he gave the real estate certificate to Qiao Nan. In his heart, only Qiao Nan is his daughter. Qiao Nan is his precious daughter, and I’m worthless. Dad, you’ve made me so disappointed and hopeless. I’m your daughter too. Why do you have to be so cruel toward me? Qiao Nan took away all my life-saving money. You didn’t blame her and even gave the courtyard to her. You obviously knew that I was waiting for the money to save my life. You didn’t want to sell the courtyard and even forced me to sell my house. Dad, are you my birth dad?!”
“Don’t you know that I’m divorced? Don’t you know that aside from that house, I don’t have any money at all? After the divorce, I have to rely on that house for a living. Are you trying to force me to my death?”
After being pointed at and scolded by Qiao Zijin, Qiao Dongliang’s face turned red. He became angry and scolded her. “I don’t treat you as a daughter? Then, do you treat me as your dad? Is there anyone who speaks to her father like that? Are you treating me as your son to scold? The courtyard is mine. I can give it to whoever I like. You don’t have a say in this. I can’t be bothered who you want to give your things to in the future as well. Yes, I gave the courtyard to Nan Nan. So? On what basis couldn’t I do this? In a way, this courtyard isn’t mine as well. Back then, in order to let you study in university, I had long sold the courtyard. Nan Nan bought it back with her hard-earned money. I’m just returning everything to its rightful owner by giving the real estate certificate to Nan Nan. Why can’t I do that?!”
Qiao Zijin choked a sob. “Qiao Nan’s not married. The money she earns belongs to this family. Why is it hers? Dad, you’re biased. You’re just biased and unreasonable!” Whose family wasn’t like this? Before marriage, all the money earned would belong to the family. Since the money belonged to the family, using it to buy the courtyard meant that the courtyard belonged to the family. It had nothing to do with Qiao Nan.
“Is that so?” Qiao Dongliang laughed sarcastically. “You worked for a few months before you got married too, right? During the few months that you worked, why is it that I didn’t see you taking a single cent out for your mom and me to spend?”
“Wasn’t my salary low then? Furthermore, I was still young and unmarried. I have to buy clothes…” Not only was the money she earned back then not enough for her to spend, but she also secretly got more money from Ding Jiayi in private. Qiao Zijin remembered all of these.
Qiao Dongliang was so angry that he slammed the table. “You still have the cheek to say this!”
