Chapter 2306: Unhappy (1)
Wang Yang had enough of being suppressed by others such that he could only look at the other party’s nose hair.
Once the verdict of this lawsuit was made, he might not have the chance to turn the tides anymore. Wang Yang felt that it was not only his father who had to be admitted to the hospital due to being angered until he fell sick. He, a young man who had no illness, was so uncomfortable that he felt that he needed someone to rescue him.
Zhu Chengqi was dead. This was obviously a good thing. Why did something good turn into something bad after Zhu Chengqi died? If Zhu Chengqi was still alive, there was both him and his mom. With the two of them pestering Zhu Chengqi, he really didn’t believe that none of them would be able to make Zhu Chengqi make another will.
What made Wang Yang desperate was that although Zhu Chengqi was dead and he and his mom still had the strength, they didn’t have a place and object where they could use their strength on. Wang Yang almost wanted to die.
“Then, should we…” Li Yayan didn’t find it strange at all that her father-in-law was so angry that he fell ill. For the whole of yesterday night, she didn’t sleep soundly for more than an hour. First, there were too many things hidden in her heart and she couldn’t sleep due to insomnia. When she finally managed to fall asleep, she dreamed that their lawsuit with Qiao Nan had already begun. It was nothing that the lawsuit was already reaching its end. The judge made the verdict that everything in the Zhu family would belong to Qiao Nan, totally unrelated to the Wang family. For some reason, Wang Yang was arrested and had to be imprisoned. Li Yayan was so shocked that she woke up from her dream sweating.
Everyone said that dreams were often the opposite. However, Li Yayan felt that the dream last night was too scary. Even until now, her heart was still beating rapidly and had not returned to her usual frequency. This dream was too scary and it was a bad omen. At this time, everyone was feeling strong psychological pressure. Li Yayan didn’t dare to say this, lest Wang Yang became unhappy.
“There’s no need to.” Wang Yang leaned against the sofa. He looked so tired that he didn’t want to move or say anything further. “My dad doesn’t need any comfort or concern now. As long as we win tomorrow’s lawsuit, he would be brimming with energy and free of illnesses. He’s not really sick. He’s just psychologically sick.” The Zhu family’s money and resources were a big wish of their Wang family.
Li Yayan wasn’t good at handling Father Wang, her father-in-law, to begin with. She was just saying words against her will when she said to show concern to her ill father-in-law. Now that Wang Yang said so, Li Yayan couldn’t help but relax.
When her father-in-law was talking to Wang Yang, he was so bad-tempered. He even became ill from the anger. If the person who called her father-in-law was her, not only would he become ill from anger, but he might even scold her until his blood vessel burst. By then, not only would her father-in-law have to be admitted to hospital, but she also had to find a psychiatrist for herself so that she wouldn’t become world-weary.
They were similarly women, married, and daughters-in-law. Upon thinking of how well Qiao Nan got along with her in-laws, Li Yayan couldn’t help but feel envious. Not only were there no issues between her and her in-laws, but they even treated her like she was their biological daughter.
They were both married women, but Qiao Nan’s life after marriage was so blessed while hers was terrible. Qiao Nan’s in-laws treated her as their daughter. Hers… Her father-in-law regarded her as a stumbling block on Wang Yang’s path of success that he should get rid of. He scolded her, saying that ever since Wang Yang married her, the Wang family had been extremely unlucky. As for her mother-in-law, although she didn’t scold her much, she always sowed discord between her and her son behind her back.
Upon thinking of the differences between herself and Qiao Nan, Li Yayan could understand for the first time why Wang Yang was so eccentric upon the mention of Zhu Baoguo, his cousin who had passed away early. They were all humans. Why was it that not only did they lead different lives, but the difference between them was so huge?
“Dear, you must be hungry. Let me prepare something for you to eat.” At this time, both Li Yayan and Wang Yang didn’t have much appetite. Qiao Zijin had left. It was less than twenty-four hours before the court session. To Wang Yang and his wife, every minute and second before the court session was extremely difficult.
They were particularly afraid of that moment when the court session started. At the same time, they faintly hoped that time could pass faster and give them a great result. The wait was too uncomfortable.
“Mom, I’m back.” Qiao Zijin returned to the Qiao family’s courtyard before dark. It was just that when she tried to unlock the door, she couldn’t. Qiao Zijin didn’t think further and just knocked on the door. “Dad, Mom, I’m back. Hurry up and open the door for me. Why can’t I unlock the door with my keys? Did you change the lock?”
As she said that, Qiao Zijin realized that the lock seemed pretty new and didn’t look like the previous one. “Dad, Mom?” She had been knocking for a minute and didn’t hear any commotion in the house. Qiao Zijin frowned.
She didn’t have a lot of hand luggage, but it was already so late. She was hungry and only wanted to return home soon, have a meal, take a shower, and have a good night’s rest. Qiao Zijin always felt that since she caught a cold and was admitted into hospital previously, she hadn’t fully recovered. She still needed to rest more.
“Seriously, why isn’t anyone replying to me? Where is everyone?” Qiao Zijin had no choice but to take out her phone and call Ding Jiayi so that she could hurry up and open the door for her.
Who knew that at this time, Qiao Zijin faintly heard the ringtone from the house? When the ringing in the house was cut off, the call she was on was hung up as well.
What did this say?
This said that Ding Jiayi was in the house. She was avoiding her and refusing to open the door for her. She even hung up her call.
Qiao Zijin’s face darkened. What was her mom up to? What did this mean? “Mom, I’m back. I know you’re at home and you can hear me. Hurry up and open the door for me. I’m hungry and tired now and only want to rest well. Mom, hurry up. It’s already so late. There’s no point in letting others watch the good show that we’re putting up.”
It had already been two days. Her mom couldn’t possibly still be angry with her because of what happened in the capital, right? When did her mom become so petty? One had to know that she didn’t do anything much to her. Even if her mom’s identity card was in her hands, hadn’t she returned to Ping Cheng with Qiao Nan’s help in the end? She didn’t lose anything at all.
So, why was her mom throwing tantrums? Wasn’t she being unreasonable?
Upon hearing Qiao Zijin’s voice, Ding Jiayi felt panicked. She seemed hesitant to open the door.
