Chapter 2148 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. Qiao Zijin should be more tired than when she just woke up after being woken up by herself at six o'clock and busy for another hour and a half. "Why don't you sleep a little longer? No matter how anxious you are, don't be in a hurry today, or in one or two hours."
"No." Qiao Zijin scratched her hair, her face looked worse than yesterday. There was no other way. It was early in the morning, she hadn't even eaten, and she was still hungry. The 3,600 yuan in her pocket was wasted. After such a big shock, Qiao Zijin knew that she couldn't fall asleep if she lay down again. Maybe she would get angrier the more she thought about it because she was lying in bed.
In that case, she might as well get up and do what she needs to do.
If the Zhai family and Qiao Nan could produce results sooner rather than later, then 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 won't work. In Qiao Nan's case, the doctor can't tell when she'll give birth, so don't force yourself. Nothing is more important than your health. We spend money now so that we can make a lot of money in the future." Ding Jiayi could imagine how expensive the capital's prices were. Just looking at the prices in Pingcheng, she knew that prices really changed every year.
Every time she heard the boss say how much the price of a dish would increase, Ding Jiayi would complain bitterly. In the past, country people were looked down upon. But now, vegetables grown in the countryside are more expensive than meat. Therefore, the more country people are, the richer they are now. What is wrong with this world? City people can't even get by with country people. It's really strange.
"Well, I'm hanging up." Qiao Zijin just wasted a lot of money, and now she wants to save money 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 then began to hesitate again when looking at her suitcase. What if it didn't work the first time? Qiao Zijin simply didn't check out and rented another three. If it worked, she could just check out again.
Qiao Zijin thought that the sooner she could get in touch with Qiao Nan, the better. Meanwhile, Ding Jiayi lost 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 kept staring 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 was already one hour, and if she didn't take a taxi, even if she took the bus, she should have taken her time to get home. Otherwise, why not just go to the bus stop to pick up Lao Qiao?
Thinking about how Qiao Dongliang had tried three times but failed to go to the capital each time, Ding Jiayi couldn't help but feel guilty when facing Qiao Dongliang, because it was all her "good deed".
With the mentality of making up for her loss, Ding Jiayi really ran to the bus stop, stared at the bus, waiting for Qiao Dongliang to appear in front of her.
Who would have thought that one, two, three cars passed by, but Ding Jiayi didn't see Qiao Dongliang getting off the car. When Ding Jiayi came to her senses and took out her phone to check the time, she realized 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 had passed. Even if Qiao Dongliang was still dawdling, he should have been home by now. How could he not show up? Ding Jiayi frowned. Could it be that she saw it wrongly, or maybe Lao Qiao didn't take the bus at all, but came back from chatting, so Lao Qiao was already at home and the two of them just missed each other?
After thinking about it, Ding Jiayi hurried home again. When she opened the door, she found the house empty. Except for herself, there was no living person: "Old Qiao? Old Qiao, are you back? Are you home?" When she entered Qiao Dongliang's room, she found it was still 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 situations were unclear, and Qiao Dongliang never came back.
Ding Jiayi got anxious and took out her cell phone. She didn't call Qiao Zijin, but directly called Qiao Dongliang, the person involved: "Old Qiao, please answer the phone quickly. Did you encounter an accident on your way back and be admitted to the hospital? Quickly answer the phone, Old Qiao, please answer the phone quickly."
Qiao Dongliang didn't have a ticket, so she couldn't get on the train to the capital, and could only go home. Moreover, Lao Qiao didn't know what she had done, so how could Lao Qiao not come back at this time? Unless, when Lao Qiao came back, something unexpected happened and he couldn't come back. If that was the case...
Ding Jiayi couldn't help but feel scared. Compared with Qiao Dongliang, there were always other ways to solve everything. Ding Jiayi was afraid that Qiao Dongliang would really have an accident. What would she do? If she had known this would happen, she would not have hidden Lao Qiao's ticket and simply let Lao Qiao go to the capital. It might not be a big problem.
As long as Qiao Nan agrees, it will be of no use if Lao Qiao opposes alone.
The phone rang about ten times. When Ding Jiayi was about to give up, Qiao Dongliang finally answered it. Qiao Dongliang's voice was a little hoarse, just like a person who had just woken up from sleep. In fact, Qiao Dongliang had just woken up, and was awakened by the ringing of the mobile phone: "Hello?"
"Old Joe, 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 else 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 thought that this world was quite funny. Just like the driver, there were poor people and there were rich people, and the world of the rich was something that ordinary people could not understand.
The bus departed ten minutes later than scheduled, and Qiao Dongliang almost got impatient, fearing that Ding Jiayi would suddenly rush out ten minutes later, pull him off the bus, and prevent him from going to the capital.
There were people in the station. This train to the capital was very popular and all the tickets were sold out. The strange thing was that after the last 18 tickets were sold, no one came. After all, it was 18 tickets, which cost thousands of yuan. For the sake of thousands of yuan, everyone should give some face and wait a little longer.
