"Third sister, are you overthinking this? It can't be true."
"No matter what, Xiaoya is their granddaughter. They can't just watch something happen to her."
Zhou Chuan was skeptical.
Zhou Ling's mind remained unchanged. The reason was simple: Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua had lied to her more than once or twice. If it happened once or twice, it would happen a third time. What was so strange about them lying to her a third time?
"We'll find out when we get back whether it's true or not."
Zhou Ling offered no explanation, saying that the truth would come out once she returned.
Not long after,
The siblings returned to the restaurant, and as soon as they reached the entrance, they asked Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua if they were in the restaurant.
"Didn't they just come out and chat with you?"
Upon hearing what the waiter said, Zhou Ling's face darkened. Without saying a word, she headed straight into the restaurant.
However, after searching around, they couldn't find Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua.
"They really ran away?"
"How could they do this? Are they even human?"
Zhou Chuan then believed Zhou Ling's guess and was immediately furious.
Where are your employee dormitories located?
"Outsiders are not allowed in our staff dormitory, you..."
“Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua are our parents. I need to see them. If something happens, can you take responsibility?”
"Okay, I'll take you there."
Seeing Zhou Chuan's fierce appearance, the staff members were wary and, not wanting to provoke this madman, had no choice but to compromise.
Five minutes later,
Seeing that Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua had disappeared without taking any luggage or clothes, Zhou Ling was pretty sure that the two of them had run away.
Just like the previous two times they lied to her, this time was no different. They didn't even bring anything with them. Were they afraid that she would find out and come back to confront them?
Zhou Ling bit her lip, utterly disappointed in Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua.
Zhou Na had told her more than once that Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua were not to be trusted, but she believed them time and time again. She was too foolish.
Whose fault is it?
Now that Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua have deliberately left, finding them is as difficult as climbing to the sky. Even if they were found, what could be done? Could they get any money from them?
"Third sister, Mom and Dad, we can't count on them. They lied to us. Where else can we get money? We need to think of something quickly. Xiaoya's illness can't be delayed."
Zhou Chuan's words brought Zhou Ling back to her senses. That's right, raising 200,000 yuan as soon as possible is the important thing.
They don't have much time to waste.
"Don't call them Mom and Dad, they don't deserve it. From now on, Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua, like Zhou Chen, will only be our enemies."
Zhou Ling said bitterly.
If Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua hadn't swindled her out of 300,000 yuan, she wouldn't have had to worry about Yaya's surgery fees. Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua bear an undeniable responsibility.
“That’s right, they don’t deserve it, they don’t deserve to be our parents.”
"Even tigers don't eat their cubs; they're not even as good as animals."
Zhou Chuan had no feelings for Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua to begin with, and now that he had witnessed them running away, all affection for them vanished, leaving only hatred in his heart.
But the next second, we were back to the important matter of where to make money.
"Come with me!"
Zhou Ling didn't explain, and immediately hailed a taxi.
"Third sister, where is this?"
"The place where my second sister tutors people."
Zhou Ling spoke slowly, and Zhou Chuan was taken aback upon hearing this, "We...ask Second Sister for money?"
Although Zhou Ling didn't want to, she couldn't worry about too much at the moment. Right now, there were only a handful of people who could help them. Zhou Dana and Wang Xiuhua were unreliable, so she could only turn to Zhou Na.
Although her relationship with Zhou Na had soured, Zhou Na was still Zhao Xiaoya's aunt, and Zhou Na liked Zhao Xiaoya very much. Otherwise, she wouldn't have bought so many clothes, milk powder, and other things for Zhao Xiaoya every time she came to the rented house.
As long as Zhou Na knows that Zhao Xiaoya needs money for surgery, Zhou Na will definitely not ignore it.
With this in mind, Zhou Ling brazenly went to the neighborhood where Zhou Na tutored people.
The university is currently on holiday and the school is closed. She doesn't know where Zhou Na lives, but she knows the home address that Zhou Na gave to the tutors.
Of course, she could also call Zhou Na.
The problem is that she had a very unpleasant argument with Zhou Na that day, and in a fit of anger, she deleted Zhou Na's contact information.
The siblings waited at the door for over an hour, but Zhou Na never appeared.
Frustrated and impatient, Zhou Chuan couldn't help but complain, "Third sister, I didn't agree to delete second sister's contact information in the first place, but you insisted on doing it anyway, sigh..."
Although it felt bad to be proven wrong, there was no going back, so Zhou Ling could only secretly regret her recklessness at the time.
Perhaps the two of them were just really lucky.
Just then, a figure pushing a bicycle slowly walked over.
She is not Zhou Na, so who is she?
"Third sister, look! Second sister, second sister is really here!"
Zhou Chuan, with his sharp eyes, immediately recognized Zhou Na.
A strange light flashed in Zhou Ling's eyes. Then, she clenched her fist, took a deep breath, and organized her thoughts.
"Second sister..."
Zhou Ling's sudden appearance startled Zhou Na.
Seeing Zhou Ling with red eyes and tears streaming down her face, and Zhou Chuan with a bitter expression, Zhou Na was briefly surprised to see them here, but then her expression returned to its usual indifference.
She didn't say anything, got on her bicycle, and prepared to leave.
"Second sister, don't go."
Upon seeing this, Zhou Chuan quickly spread his arms to block the way.
"Second sister, I'm sorry, I was wrong!"
Zhou Ling walked over quickly, tears welling in her eyes, and apologized.
Zhou Na had no idea what the two were up to, and she couldn't help but feel annoyed because she knew that these two idiots were definitely up to no good.
At the same time, she couldn't help but recall when she and her two siblings went to find Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen's feelings were probably exactly the same as hers now.
I feel disgusted!
"We have nothing to do with each other anymore. What do you want with me? Get out of my way!"
Pulling herself back to reality, Zhou Na said in an extremely cold tone that she didn't want to clean up their messes; these two were just troublemakers.
Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan were slightly taken aback; it was the first time they had seen Zhou Na's face like this, and they felt somewhat uncomfortable.
"Second sister, Xiaoya is sick. Only you can save her now. Please save your niece, okay?"
To prevent Zhou Na from leaving immediately, Zhou Ling didn't have time to think too much and directly stated the purpose of her trip.
“Zhou Ling, I am not a doctor. Your daughter is sick, you should go to a doctor, not me.”
Zhou Na had a big question mark about Zhou Ling's words and didn't believe them at all.
Seeing this scene,
Zhou Ling quickly pulled out the medical record and examination receipts, and tearfully told them that Zhao Xiaoya had a serious heart condition and needed 200,000 yuan for surgery.
What!
Zhou Na grabbed all the forms, scanned them one by one, and then fell silent.
