Qiao Ruhai was with her too.
“Stop crying.”
Father Qiao said impatiently, “Aren’t our family matters annoying enough already? Stop making it worse with your crying.”
Lin Huizhen looked up with swollen eyes. She then answered sadly, “Qiao Ruhai, do you really treat Anxin as your daughter? How could I not cry under such circumstances? Anxin is still unconscious, aren’t you the least bit worried about her?”
Father Qiao frowned. There wasn’t much sadness on his face, and he even answered impatiently, “The doctor has said that she will wake up today. There’s nothing wrong with her. What’s there to worry about? I’ve got bigger fish to fry.”
“Qiao Ruhai, how could you say that? Is Anxin your real daughter? I bet you only treat Qiao Mianmian as your real daughter. Anxin and I are nothing to you at all.
“Anxin is your biological daughter. Qiao Mianmian is just an orphan that you adopted. How could you care more about an orphan than your own daughter? Are you out of your mind?”
“Shut up.” Qiao Ruhai was on the verge of anger. “How many times have I told you? Don’t mention that matter again. Also, I don’t care if she was an orphan or not. Mianmian is my daughter.
“Scold her again, and you can bet that I will turn violent.”
Lin Huizhen was angered by how protective he was towards Qiao Mianmian and snaped. “Qiao Ruhai, you’re truly a loyal worker. You only worked at the company for three years and became so loyal to them.
“Three years of working relationship, and you’re willing to take care of their kid. Is your employer aware of your loyalty? Also, don’t drag Anxin and me into your affairs if you want to repay them. Why must we always give in to her?
“You’ve treated her so well and loved her more than your own biological daughter. But look at how she repaid your kindness. She caused a ruckus at home with a bunch of guys. Has she treated you like her father? If she did, would she have done that?
“You lost money in your business the moment she left with that man. You even had to give up your vacation home as collateral for it. Maybe she was the one behind it. How could she partner up with an outsider against her own family?
“If it wasn’t for her, Anxin wouldn’t have argued with Su Ze. Then, Anxin wouldn’t have gotten a miscarriage. My poor grandchild, he died before he had the chance to see the world.”
She started tearing up again as she rambled.
On the hospital bed.
Qiao Anxin was still in pain when she woke up.
She overheard the conversation between Lin Huizhen and Qiao Ruhai, but it wasn’t clear to her as she wasn’t fully conscious.
It was only when she heard the word “miscarriage” that it shook her awake.
Shocked, she wanted to get up and ask what happened. But she experienced a sharp pain the moment she moved.
The pain caused her to fall back onto the bed.
