"She ran away!" Qiao Hainan rolled up his sleeves. "She's so vicious for such a young age. If she hadn't thrown the cat in, my wife wouldn't have gone into labor prematurely. The doctor said if we had arrived half an hour later, the baby wouldn't have survived."
Thankfully, my son is lucky to be alive, and my wife is healthy; otherwise, who knows what might have happened last night.
Qiao Haixing finally realized what was happening and said to Wang Qin, who was standing there dumbfounded, "Why didn't you take your daughter with you when you left yesterday? Did this person run away?"
"How would I know?" Wang Qin felt like she'd been struck by lightning. She was getting married next week, and if her daughter ran away, would the wedding still go on? She couldn't let the neighbors laugh at her!
Qiao Haixing then said, "What a misfortune for our family! Why did you run away? Did you give her money?"
I couldn't help but wonder if my wife had some secret stash of money. These past few days, I've been driven crazy by debt collectors.
Wang Qin stomped her foot angrily: "Where would I get money? Besides, why would I give money to that brat?"
Qiao Haixing thought about it and realized that his family was indeed out of money. He knew exactly how much savings his family had before, and all that was left was the small dowry he had prepared for his daughter.
Qiao Tianli: "Tell me what exactly happened?"
Qiao Sunshi: "Sigh, it was because Lingling threw the cat into the room last night that the third son's wife gave birth prematurely."
I don't know what that girl was thinking, doing something like this, almost killing both her and her unborn child.
Qiao Tianli raised his hand and slapped her: "Tell me, did you ask her to do this?"
"Why did you hit me?" Qiao Sunshi felt extremely wronged: "I didn't say a word to Lingzi yesterday, I just sat in the room the whole time. Are you blind?"
Qiao Tianli's recollection seemed to confirm the story: "Then why did she do that?"
"How would I know?" Qiao Sunshi retorted, covering her right cheek with her hand.
Qiao Haixing, who was quick-witted, said, "Dad, Mom, go back and check where the money is hidden."
Qiao Tianli and Qiao Sunshi exchanged a glance, then each went back to their rooms to search.
Qiao Tianli didn't have much money left, so he found his hidden stash of money and took it to the yard.
"This is all the money I have left, and it wasn't stolen."
"Heavens above!" Qiao Sunshi wailed, staring at the tattered pillow. "How could my money be stolen? That damned little bitch! She's not my granddaughter at all, she's a creditor from a past life!"
Her life savings, accumulated over a lifetime, were stolen. She felt like the sky was falling. Having money in your hands gives you a sense of purpose.
Qiao Tianli rushed into the room: "How much money did you lose?"
“She didn’t leave me a single penny of the money. She’s determined to kill me!” Qiao Sunshi cried uncontrollably, as if her mother had died.
When the remaining people came in and saw this scene, they were all at a loss for what to do.
Qiao Haixing felt a pang of regret. Why hadn't he thought of his mother's wealth? His daughter had beaten him to it and stolen all the money. He wondered where that brat had gone.
The chances of them going home are very slim; they've most likely taken the money and gone somewhere else.
Thinking about my wedding with Song Min next week, what am I going to do if I can't deliver the bride?
If I had known this would happen, I would have just sent my daughter to the police station and let her fend for herself. Then none of what happened later would have occurred.
