Chapter 097: Heating Up
Qiao Yuyan's polite tone towards Xiang Dong made everyone in the ward instantly realize that it seemed that her attitude towards Xiang Dong suddenly became indifferent, and there was a sense of distance between them.
When Xiang Dong heard this, he suddenly felt very uncomfortable in his heart, he didn't like Qiao Yuyan's deliberately distant attitude.
"It's okay, I'll go say hello to Dean Su and ask him to make arrangements for your food and lodging during your hospitalization." After Xiang Dong finished speaking to Qiao Yuyan expressionlessly, he said to Qiao's mother: "Auntie, you can treat with peace of mind, don't worry about other things." ”
Then he nodded at Qiao's mother, smiled faintly at Qiao Yuyan, and then turned around and strode towards the outside of the ward.
He is a person who does things quite neatly, and since Qiao Yuyan is close to giving an eviction order, he will not hesitate anymore, let alone explain anything.
Seeing this, Qiao's mother felt a grunt in her heart, and she couldn't tell whether it was resentment of her daughter's attitude or disappointment with Xiang Dong's decisive behavior, in short, there was a sense of fear that the building was about to collapse.
Anyway, Qiao Yuyan's behavior gives people a very bad feeling, although Qiao's mother understands that this is not her daughter's intention, but she will still be ashamed. She raised her hand, wanting to say something apologetic to Xiang Dong, but she couldn't make a sound.
"Brother Dong, wait a minute." Just as Xiang Dong was about to leave, Qiao's father couldn't help but shout at Xiang Dong.
His thoughts were different from Qiao's mother, and in his mind, Qiao Yuyan was sucking vinegar. Dean Su just mentioned Su Tong earlier, and Qiao Yuyan's attitude towards Xiang Dong suddenly changed here, what is it if it is not vinegar?
No matter what the reason is, the plan he prepared must be implemented, let Xiang Dong leave, and implement a fart. Only a more selfish person like him would put aside his father's position and look at the problem from the perspective of a bystander.
"What's the matter?" Xiang Dong, who was about to walk to the door, turned his face and said lightly.
No matter how disgusted Father Qiao is, because he is afraid of Qiao Yuyan's feelings, it is impossible for him to turn a deaf ear to Father Qiao's words.
"Yan Yan's tone just now was not very good, in fact, it was not aimed at you, but because she was angry with me. I hope you don't take it to heart. Qiao's father said apologetically to Xiang Dong.
Xiang Dong was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect that Father Qiao would suddenly become like a truly responsible father. However, although he was surprised, he still nodded at Qiao's father and said, "Classmate Qiao Yuyan didn't say anything excessive, but you were too worried." ”
Don't talk about Xiang Dong at this time, even Qiao Yuyan's mother and daughter were shocked by Qiao's father's sudden change, so that they were like receiving an electric shock, and their spirits were in a state of half-dementia.
"That's because you don't know her, I'm her biological father, of course I know what she really thinks in her heart." Qiao's father put on a strict father's appearance. Immediately to Xiang Dongzheng color dao:
"When Director Wang came back just now. I was given a hospital cafeteria card. It just so happened that I was going to take Qiao's mother out for a walk, and by the way, I went to the cafeteria for dinner and came back, please Dong Ge help us talk about Yan Yan, you young people have a common language. ”
After Qiao's father finished speaking. Without waiting for everyone to react, he helped Qiao's mother out of the ward, locked the ward with his hand, and hung the Do Not Disturb sign on the door.
Before he left the door of the ward, he secretly sprinkled most of the perfume in his pocket next to the bonsai by the door. The smell of this perfume is very similar to the scent of bonsai plants, and it is not easy to notice.
When Qiao's mother was taken away by Qiao's father, Qiao Yuyan fully reacted from the shock, glanced at Xiang Dong, who was standing in place, and her heart couldn't help beating violently. His hands were staggered in his chest, writhing in confusion.
Xiang Dong was also stunned by Qiao's father's behavior, is this still the Qiao father who is infinitely annoying? Isn't such a feeling that cannot be described in words exactly the mellow and boundless father's love?
But intuition told Xiang Dong that this was not Qiao's father's intention, and Qiao's father hid his true intentions.
"Xiang Dong. Don't listen to me...... My dad was talking nonsense. Just when Xiang Dong was deep in thought, thinking about Qiao's father's true purpose, Qiao Yuyan's voice like water and song suddenly trembled and broke his contemplation.
The heavy word of father, Qiao Yuyan has not said it so sincerely for a long time, although it is not smooth, but it is a respect for Qiao's father from the heart.
"Huh...... Did something happen to you just after I left? Xiang Dong walked to the edge of the hospital bed opposite Qiao Yuyan and sat down, and smiled awkwardly.
No matter how you say it, Qiao's father has become better, which is very good news for Qiao Yuyan, since he can't figure it out, Xiang Dong won't think about it.
"No, after you left with Dean Su, Director Wang came back once. And before you and Dean Su came back, my dad had just come back, and nothing happened in between. Qiao Yuyan also immediately sat on the edge of the bed opposite Xiang Dong, lowered her head and replied softly.
"Well, it's good that nothing happened." Xiang Dong nodded when he heard this: "Oh yes, Qiao Yuyan, what are your plans in the future, do you want to go to school next week?" ”
As soon as she heard Xiang Dong mention this, Qiao Yuyan's face suddenly darkened again, glanced at Xiang Dong and lowered her head and said quietly: "I want to drop out of school, my mother's body needs my care, and I want to come out early to find a job and get in touch with society as soon as possible." ”
She really doesn't want to continue to go to school, the family is a mess by her father, the debts he owes have to be repaid, the old house is in danger of collapsing at any time, and her mother's body is a pain in her heart.
"How can that work?" Xiang Dong hurriedly said to Qiao Yuyan: "Are you worried about things at home?" Don't worry, I'll find a way to arrange things at home, and you can go to school with peace of mind! ”
Intuition told Xiang Dong that this was not Qiao Yuyan's heart, and her consideration of the current situation of her family was the most real reason.
If he hadn't met it, since he was involved in this matter at this time, of course he wouldn't have watched Qiao Yuyan abandon school, not to mention that Qiao Yuyan performed very well in all aspects when she was in school.
"I ...... What good can you do? When Qiao Yuyan heard this, she was really moved, and asked Xiang Dongdao with a smile on her face.
She really didn't want to drop out of school, but the family's poor situation forced her to make this heart-wrenching decision.
"Of course there is a way, don't you see that I have a lot of friends? It's not hard for me to solve your family's affairs at all. Xiang Dong immediately said to Qiao Yuyan arrogantly.
Qiao Yuyan was so provoked by him that she almost laughed, but when she thought of the real problem, she couldn't help but shake her head again, and said gloomily in an instant: "But my dad owes a lot of gambling debts, and there is no way to solve this matter, unless all the gambling debts are repaid." ”
As far as she knows, her father's gambling debts are more than one million, and such a huge debt is simply catastrophic for their family.
"Huh...... Don't worry, your father's little thing is nothing. Xiang Dong said proudly again: "Don't you want to think about it, why would a person who lends usury~ a loan give money to your father to gamble?" According to your family's financial situation, aren't they afraid of losing their money? ”
Qiao Yuyan's eyes lit up when she heard this, Xiang Dong said that it really makes sense, his family is poor and white, and he doesn't have any assets that can be mortgaged, so why should people lend money to his father?
"Then why do you think my dad still owes millions of dollars?" Qiao Yuyan asked rhetorically with excitement as if she saw hope.
Because she was too concerned about her father's gambling debts, Qiao Yuyan didn't realize that Xiang Dong didn't seem to be the same as usual.
"Needless to say? It must have been the casino people who had colluded with your father, and instead of lending money to your father, they played a trick and put the money in the left pocket in the right pocket, and your father was just kept in the dark. Xiang Dong said confidently.
"So that's it?" Qiao Yuyan suddenly had an epiphany.
But somehow, she suddenly felt that the temperature in the room was a little high, so she couldn't help but unbutton her collar and said to Xiang Dong again: "However, my dad has already signed the IOU, and it is natural for people to come to collect debts?" ”
She also thought that what Xiang Dong said was very reasonable, but when she thought of the IOUs in the hands of those people, her mood suddenly fell into a trough again.
"There are some things you don't understand, like your father's case, the IOU he signed, without your mother's signature, and without legal justice, cannot be counted as truly valid evidence." Xiang Dong explained to Qiao Yuyan seriously:
"Who knows if your father was forced or unconscious when he took the IOU?"
"Hey, that's what you said, so doesn't my father have to pay back?" When Qiao Yuyan heard this, her heart immediately warmed up, and she couldn't help grabbing Xiang Dong's big hand and asking with a longing face.
"That's why I just said that this matter is easy to solve, don't worry, this matter is not as terrible as you think. As you know, some of my friends are very energetic, and it is not difficult to solve this problem, you just need to go to school with peace of mind and wait for my good news. Xiang Dong said proudly again when he heard this.
In fact, the actual situation is not as simple as he said, and there must be an unknown secret behind Qiao's father's debt.
He thinks that gambling debts are secondary, and the main thing that is questionable is the contract between Qianshou and Qiao's father to sign Qiao Yuyan's singing, this Qianshou is definitely a problem, as long as he catches Qianshou, all problems will be solved.
He had already thought that he would personally deal with this matter, and it was a big deal to secretly repay Qiao's father's debts, he didn't want Qiao Yuyan to live in the shadows for the rest of his life.
"Well, I believe you!" Qiao Yuyan nodded heavily, looked directly at Xiang Dong and replied softly.
But when she realized that she had been holding Xiang Dong's big hand tightly, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she immediately retracted her hand and said about it: "Xiang Dong, have you turned on the air conditioner?" How can the temperature be so high? ”
"No, the air conditioner hasn't been turned on, maybe the weather is stuffy, I'll open the window for ventilation." Xiang Dong also felt very hot indoors, so he got up and walked to the windowsill and opened the window with his hand.
