Chapter 2155 Face
"Okay, don't worry, I'll call or text you as soon as my dad gets home. It's so early in the morning, do you want to sleep a little longer?" Ding Jiayi also knew that Qiao Zijin basically had no habit of getting up early. After being woken up by herself at six o'clock and busy for another hour and a half, Qiao Zijin should be more tired now than when she just got up: "Or, you can sleep a little longer. No matter how anxious you are, you're not in a hurry for today, nor for just one or two hours."
"No." Qiao Zijin scratched her hair, her face looked worse than yesterday. There was no way, it was so early in the morning, she didn't even have a meal, and she was still hungry, and the 3,600 yuan in her pocket was wasted. After such a big shock, Qiao Zijin knew that she would not be able to fall asleep if she lay back down, and she might even get angrier the more she thought about it because she was lying in bed.
In this case, she might as well get up quickly and do what she should do. If
the Zhai family and Qiao Nan could get results sooner, she could at least comfort herself that the 3,600 yuan she spent this morning was not wasted.
"Okay, get up if you want, and remember to eat breakfast. If you don't take good care of your body, this thing can't be done. In Qiao Nan's case, the doctor can't say when she will give birth, so don't force yourself. Nothing is more important than your health. We spend a small amount of money now so that we can make a lot of money in the future." Ding Jiayi could imagine how high the prices in the capital were. Just by looking at the prices in Pingcheng, she knew that the prices really change every year.
Every time she heard the boss say how much the price of a certain dish would increase, Ding Jiayi would complain bitterly. In the past, country people and mud legs were looked down upon. But now, the vegetables grown in the countryside are more expensive than meat. Therefore, the more country people are, the richer they are now. What's wrong with this world? City people can't get along with country people. It's really strange.
"Well, I'm hanging up." Having just wasted a lot of money, Qiao Zijin now wants to save even on phone bills and doesn't want to waste any more. What's more, she is in the capital now, and calling her mother is an inter-provincial call, which is extremely expensive.
After being stimulated enough, Qiao Zijin washed up as quickly as she could, and began to hesitate again when looking at her suitcase. What if it doesn't work the first time? Qiao Zijin simply didn't check out and rented for three more days. If it works, she can just check out again.
Qiao Zijin thought that the sooner she could get in touch with Qiao Nan, the better. Meanwhile, Ding Jiayi didn't even have the mood to watch TV and kept walking around the house. She looked at her door to see if there was any movement, and then she stared at the clock on her wall, calculating that Qiao Dongliang, who couldn't buy a ticket, should be back, and where he should be at this time. It's been an hour, let alone taking a taxi, even if she took the bus, she should have been able to get home in no time. Otherwise, she might as well go to the bus stop to pick up Old Qiao?
Thinking of Qiao Dongliang's three attempts but each time he failed to go to the capital, Ding Jiayi couldn't help but feel guilty when facing Qiao Dongliang, because it was all her "good work".
With the mentality of making up for it, Ding Jiayi really ran to the bus stop, staring at the bus, waiting for Qiao Dongliang to appear in front of her.
Who would have thought that one, two, and three buses passed by, and Ding Jiayi didn't see Qiao Dongliang getting off the bus. When Ding Jiayi came to her senses and took out her mobile phone to check the time, she found that it was already nine o'clock in the blink of an eye.
The bus was at 7:30, and now an hour and a half has passed. Even if Qiao Dongliang dawdled, he should have been home by now. How could he not show up? Ding Jiayi frowned. Did she see it wrong? Or maybe Lao Qiao did not take the bus at all, but took a taxi back, so Lao Qiao was already at home, and the two of them just missed each other?
After thinking about it, Ding Jiayi rushed home again. When she opened the door, she saw that the house was empty. Except for herself, there was no living person: "Lao Qiao? Lao Qiao, are you back? Are you home?" She entered Qiao Dongliang's room and saw that it was as tidy as when Qiao Dongliang left in the morning. As for the luggage bag that Qiao Dongliang took away,
it was not in the room at this time. All these circumstances showed that Qiao Dongliang had not returned.
Ding Jiayi was anxious. She took out her cell phone and called Qiao Dongliang, the person involved, instead of Qiao Zijin: "Old Qiao, please answer the phone. Did you encounter an accident on your way back and go to the hospital? Answer the phone, Old Qiao, please answer the phone."
Qiao Dongliang did not have a ticket, could not get on the train, could not go to the capital, and could only go home. Moreover, Old Qiao did not know what she had done, so how could Old Qiao not come back at this time? Unless, Old Qiao had an accident on his way back and could not come back. If that were to happen...
Ding Jiayi couldn't help but feel scared. Compared to Qiao Dongliang, everything could be solved in other ways. Ding Jiayi was afraid that something would happen to Qiao Dongliang. What would she do? If she had known this would happen, she would not have hidden Lao Qiao's ticket. She would have simply let Lao Qiao go to the capital. There might not be a big problem.
As long as Qiao Nan agreed, it would be useless if Lao Qiao opposed it alone.
The phone rang about a dozen times. When Ding Jiayi was about to give up in despair, Qiao Dongliang finally answered it. Qiao Dongliang's voice was a little hoarse, almost like someone who had just woken up from sleep. In fact, Qiao Dongliang had just woken up and was awakened by the ringing of his cell phone: "Hello?"
"Old Qiao, it's me. Where are you now? Are you okay?"
"..." Qiao Dongliang yawned, glanced at the scenery outside the car window, and rubbed his eyes: "Where can I be? I'm going to the capital to see Nannan today. Don't you know about this? It's a several-hour drive. Of course, I'm on the bus to the capital now."
Glancing at the empty seats in the back row, Qiao Dongliang felt that this world was quite funny. Just like the driver said, there are poor people and there are rich people. Moreover, the world of the rich is something that ordinary people cannot understand.
The departure time of this bus was ten minutes later than the scheduled time, which almost made Qiao Dongliang wait anxiously. He was afraid that Ding Jiayi would suddenly rush out and pull him off the bus in the ten minutes of delay, preventing him from going to the capital.
