He already knew that this wouldn’t work, so why would he still spend so much time and effort? Not only would he fail to influence Qiao Zijin in the end, but he would be first angered to death by Qiao Zijin’s indifferent and disapproving attitude.

This was the real reason why Qiao Dongliang didn’t completely persuade Qiao Zijin to bow down to Ding Jiayi. It wasn’t that he was biased against Qiao Zijin. Qiao Dongliang clearly knew that compared to Qiao Nan, who was worth teaching, Qiao Zijin was just plain stubborn.

“No, it’s not because of this matter.” Didn’t she just casually ask? It wasn’t a big deal. Why did Old Qiao throw temper at her again? She didn’t even voice out her grievances and get angry at Old Qiao for wanting a divorce even after she had sacrificed so much for this family over the years. Old Qiao was getting more hot-tempered. He no longer accommodated and doted on her like he had back when they were young. “Zijin didn’t tell on you. I’m just curious why Zijin cried today. Why? What did you and Zijin talk about?”

It was rare that not only was Qiao Zijin willing to give her one hundred thousand yuan, but she also didn’t make a counter-offer when two hundred thousand yuan was mentioned.. With this in mind, Ding Jiayi naturally had to give Qiao Zijin face and try her best to mend the relationship between the three of them. This was the harmonious family relationship she was looking forward to the most.

“Aren’t you and Zijin the mother-daughter pair with the best relationship in this world? Did you two argue? Since that’s the case, why didn’t you ask Zijin this? Why did you come and ask me instead?” Upon thinking that Qiao Zijin refused without thinking and even started to cry, Qiao Dongliang’s mood became a little worse than when he had just left the room.

Before that sentence was said, Qiao Dongliang knew that this would definitely not succeed. What made Qiao Dongliang feel heartache was that Qiao Zijin’s reaction was simply too unacceptable.

Qiao Zijin asked him what she should do such that he was no longer angry and was willing to reconcile with Ding Jiayi. Qiao Dongliang had the mentality to try and thus told Qiao Zijin a way. “Do you really wish for us to return to our previous relationship and be a close family like the rest of the families? It’s not that this is impossible, as long as you can do one thing.”

“Me?” Qiao Zijin pointed to her nose in disbelief. “Dad, don’t scare me. I’m not a capable person. It’s too unreliable to let me do something. I don’t have the ability.” If she was capable, she would have long moved out from the courtyard and led a carefree life on her own. Why would she stay together with these dirty and smelly old people? She wasn’t a fool.

“Don’t worry. Since I can say this out loud, it is definitely something that you can do.” If he knew that Zijin couldn’t do it, he wouldn’t have mentioned it. It was just that he knew that although Zijin could fulfill his request, she might not be willing to do so. The problem was that before he could mention this, there was no more hope left in his heart.

“Really? I can do it? Tell me.” She had to listen to it herself before she knew if she could really promise him.

“Return everything that belongs to Nan Nan to Nan Nan. From now on, you, your mom, and I would just be down-to-earth and lead our lives honestly. If that’s the case, my relationship with your mom would definitely be good in the future.” By then, their family of four could really be considered to be reunited and reconciled.

Zijin and Old Ding wanted to depend on Nan Nan and satisfy themselves by exploiting Nan Nan. If such a mindset existed for another day, their family could never become a family again. He couldn’t pretend to be deaf and mute like in the past as well, watching Old Ding and Zijin bully Nan Nan when he knew that what they did was obviously wrong.

Since he already knew that this was wrong, as long as Old Ding and Zijin were willing to change, he believed that one day, their family of four could really become together like a family. If Old Ding and Zijin were unwilling to change, then there was nothing else to say.

Once she heard that it was for Qiao Nan again, Qiao Zijin’s heart became so sour that she could no longer use words to describe her feelings. Qiao Zijin’s lips trembled and she said in a broken voice, “Dad, are you kidding me? Qiao Nan married Zhai Sheng and became the chief’s wife. Who else is more capable than Qiao Nan in the entire northern quad? Furthermore, compared to an ordinary person, I’m the one who has nothing, let alone compared to Qiao Nan. What else do I have on me that belongs to Qiao Nan and needs me to return to her?”

Even if it was Chen Jun, she had already divorced this man and he no longer belonged to her. She had long wanted to return Chen Jun to Qiao Nan. It was a pity that before she could tell Qiao Nan, Qiao Nan became capable and got close to the formidable Zhai Sheng. As such, what else did she have that she could return to Qiao Nan?

In principle, according to the current situation, Qiao Nan should be the one taking more care of her, the sister. Her dad was confused. It was just a simple sentence but he could say it wrongly.

“You do. You have something that belongs to Nan Nan and you should return it to her.” Qiao Dongliang lowered his voice. “Zijin, you have to admit that the house you just sold actually doesn’t belong to you. Nan Nan had forked out all the money for that house. You didn’t spend a single cent, and neither did Chen Jun. Nan Nan used the money from her salary to buy the house. That house should belong to Nan Nan. Of course, now that the house isn’t yours anymore, you can’t return the house to her. That’s fine.”

“Nan Nan is a kind child. As long as you’re willing to change, Nan Nan will forgive you. Nan Nan knows that you sold the house for your medical treatment. After selling the house and paying for the treatment, you still have at least one and a half million yuan in your hands, right? Zijin, listen to me. You’re already a mother. In a few years, you should be a grandma. As an elder, you should set an example for your future grandchildren. We can’t take whatever that isn’t ours. Return it to Nan Nan. It’s Nan Nan’s business if she doesn’t lack money. However, it depends on your attitude and thoughts if you want to return it to her or not.”

Qiao Dongliang returned the courtyard to Qiao Nan. This was what she deserved. However, Qiao Dongliang always knew that it wasn’t enough to just return the courtyard to Qiao Nan. That was because Qiao Zijin’s house was also bought with Qiao Nan’s money. This house belonged to Qiao Nan as well. The money obtained after selling the house should be returned to Qiao Nan.

He already knew that Qiao Zijin was led astray by Ding Jiayi and her thoughts were all distorted. If he really wanted to pull this daughter back, he had to teach her step by step. He could no longer be softhearted and condone her.

Didn’t Qiao Zijin value money the most? A gentleman who desires wealth makes it in good ways. One should return things that didn’t belong to them. It was already too late if someone had to teach her that now
