Facing Jiang Yiran's teasing gaze, Jiang Qiaoqiao said indifferently, "She does like you quite a bit."
After saying that, she picked up the thermos and headed towards the hot water room.
“Qiaoqiao…” Peng Cuiying’s anxious voice came from the ward.
But Jiang Qiaoqiao had already lost interest in paying attention to her.
She prepared hot water and returned to her ward.
Lin Xiaohui has been receiving intravenous fluids at the hospital for the past few days. She's been resting well and eating well, and her complexion looks much rosier.
While peeling an apple for her, Jiang Qiaoqiao talked to her about things at the store.
Zheng Yulan has now basically mastered the skills. Except for the steps involving key formulas, she can do all the other steps well.
The store still has long queues every day, but everyone works in an orderly manner without any chaos.
Lin Xiaohui listened to what she said and nodded happily.
Yang Minghui, on the other hand, had red eyes and was wiping away tears.
"My Qiaoqiao has really grown up, she's amazing!"
The family of three said these words in the hospital room, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere.
Standing at the door of the ward, Peng Cuiying's eyes were red with hatred.
The Yang couple looked honest and simple, but who knew they were so cunning!
If they hadn't gone back on their word and reconnected with Jiang Qiaoqiao, she would still be the obedient daughter they could boss around. How could things have turned out like this?
The thought that Jiang Qiaoqiao should be by her side, massaging her and taking care of her with utmost care and concern when she had a headache, instead of staying by Lin Xiaohui's bedside, filled her with resentment.
She angrily raised her hand to slam the door and rush in to confront Lin Xiaohui.
But before she could smash the door, her hand was grabbed by a large hand.
She turned around and saw Jiang Jiahua's icy gaze. "What are you doing here again? Don't you think you've caused enough trouble? Don't you think Qiaoqiao hates us enough?"
Peng Cuiying looked indignant. "Her life was given to her by me, so why should she hate me?"
"Shut up!"
Jiang Jiahua lowered his voice and scolded Peng Cuiying, glaring at her and ordering, "Get back to your ward right now."
Peng Cuiying didn't dare to argue with Jiang Jiahua and reluctantly went back to her ward.
Jiang Jiahua looked into the ward through the window in the transparent door.
When he saw Jiang Qiaoqiao laughing happily with Yang Minghui and Lin Xiaohui, a flash of resentment crossed his eyes.
This couple took two hundred yuan from them and still dared to come back looking for Qiaoqiao. They are simply despicable!
He was unaware of what Peng Cuiying said when she gave money to the Yang family.
But at this moment, his thoughts were the same as Peng Cuiying's.
If the Yang couple hadn't contacted Qiaoqiao, Jiang Qiaoqiao would definitely have been able to be controlled by them for the rest of her life.
He glared at the three people in the room a few more times before leaving indignantly.
Back to Peng Cuiying's ward.
"What?" Peng Cuiying was so shocked by Jiang Jiahua's words that she almost jumped off the hospital bed. "Old Jiang, you...you said Huo Beixiao is going to buy the cement factory? How is that possible?"
Peng Cuiying couldn't believe it at all, and muttered to herself, "You must have asked the wrong person, right? The person who can buy the cement plant should be Huo Yuanshan. Huo Yuanshan has been the factory director of the cement plant for so many years. He has money and an affection for the cement plant. It's normal for him to be willing to buy it, right?"
"Let me tell you, even if Huo Yuanshan really buys the cement plant, it won't be a problem for Huo Beixiao."
Huo Yuanshan and his current wife have two sons! With a stepmother comes a stepfather; the lion's share of Huo Yuanshan's inheritance will definitely go to those two, leaving little hope for Huo Beixiao.
As Peng Cuiying spoke, she waved her hand dismissively.
As Jiang Jiahua heard these words, his face grew increasingly grim.
This woman is getting more and more confused as she gets older.
"Shut up!" Finally, he couldn't take it anymore and snapped, "No matter who bought the cement factory, you better behave yourself from now on. Don't bother Qiaoqiao, and try to be nice to her whenever you can. After you're discharged from the hospital, I don't care what method you use, even if you have to kneel down and kowtow, you have to make Qiaoqiao forgive you."
He pulled every string he could, hoping to meet the wealthy man who wanted to buy the cement factory and persuade him to invest in the food factory.
He became the deputy director of the food factory at the age of thirty-three, and it has been almost twenty years now. He is really unwilling to be a deputy director until retirement.
That's why he tried every possible way to find out, but he never expected the result to be...
When Peng Cuiying heard Jiang Jiahua demand that she kneel down and apologize to Jiang Qiaoqiao, her eyes widened in shock.
She's Jiang Qiaoqiao's biological mother! She's apologizing to her daughter?
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Before she could say whether it was possible or not, Jiang Jiahua had already stuffed a bag of fruit and two cans of malted milk powder into her hands, saying, "Take these to Qiaoqiao's adoptive mother, and apologize to her properly to try and get closer to her."
Peng Cuiying originally wanted to say that she wouldn't go, because there's no such thing as parents begging their daughters.
But under Jiang Jiahua's intimidating gaze, she quickly grabbed her things and slunk away.
When Peng Cuiying arrived at Lin Xiaohui's ward, Huo Beixiao had just arrived as well.
Lin Xiaohui looked at the exquisite paper bag in Huo Beixiao's hand, "Beixiao, what's this...?"
Huo Beixiao took a red box out of the paper bag and handed it to Lin Xiaohui, "Mom, this is what I bought for you. Thank you for raising my wife so well."
Lin Xiaohui felt that Huo Beixiao's words sounded a bit strange.
Before she could think about it, her pupils dilated in shock at what Huo Beixiao had given her in the box.
Inside was a gleaming gold necklace.
She quickly pushed the gift back, "Bei Xiao, this gift is too expensive. Mom can't accept it. Give it to Qiao Qiao. She's young and it will definitely look good on her."
“Mom, this necklace is perfect for someone your age.” Huo Beixiao pushed the exquisite box back.
Then, with a deep gaze that held a hidden glimmer of light, he looked at Jiang Qiaoqiao with deep affection and seriousness, "I have prepared a gift that suits Qiaoqiao."
