Chapter 813 Did Not Need Someone to Tend to
Outsiders could tell from the way Ding Jiayi treated Qiao Dongliang that the couple had a good relationship two years ago.

Old Qiao, you haven’t told me where Zijin and Qiao Nan are. Why do I have no memory that I was injured? Why aren’t Zijin and Qiao Nan here to visit me?
When it was around eleven o’clock in the afternoon, Ding Jiayi touched her stomach.
Old Qiao, I am hungry. Why aren’t Zijin and Qiao Nan here to deliver my lunch?

Three years ago, Qiao Dongliang did not quarrel as much with Ding Jiayi. Ding Jiayi did not disappoint and upset Qiao Dongliang. Back then, when they encountered difficulties, they would still discuss with each other to come up with solutions. Qiao Dongliang and Ding Jiayi still lived in the same house and in the same room.
Qiao Dongliang and Ding Jiayi were still close to each other back then.

Do you want to have some food?
Qiao Dongliang looked at Ding Jiayi.
Ding Jiayi played the coquette.
Yes, I am hungry.




You have money with you. What do you feel like having? Give me the money and I will buy it for you.


There is no need to buy lunch. Zijin and Qiao Nan will bring us lunch. Zijin will not be lazy and Qiao Nan is very diligent. The food in the hospital is very expensive. The money in our house… Old Qiao, are you still angry with me? Are you angry that I spent the money so that Zijin could study in high school without telling you and we don’t have any money to pay for your hospital bills when you are hospitalized? Fortunately, Qiao Nan has not let us down and has borrowed money to pay for the bills. Shall I look for a permanent job? We will work hard to repay the money that Qiao Nan borrowed. I feel uneasy that we owe others so much money.

Ding Jiayi said those words in a gentle tone and her words made sense. It was unlike her behavior previously where she would be unreasonable and insisted that Qiao Nan be responsible for the money that was used to pay for Qiao Dongliang’s hospital bills.
Even when it was three years ago, from the time Qiao Dongliang was hospitalized until he was discharged, Ding Jiayi never said that she and Qiao Dongliang would repay the money that Qiao Nan borrowed.
Not only had Ding Jiayi suffered from ‘amnesia’ and lost her three years of memory, but she also had a change of temper.

Old Qiao, I am talking to you. Can you hear me? Zijin and Qiao Nan will go to college eventually. That is a large sum of money that we have to come up with. We have to work hard to earn more money. We must stand united as a family. When we clear our debts, we can put aside our savings for the two of them to go to universities. Come to think of it, there is no time to delay. By the way, why am I injured? You have just recovered and I am injured. When will we be able to work to repay the debts?
Ding Jiayi felt anxious and worried.
Qiao Dongliang shut his eyes to organize his thoughts. He opened his eyes when he was ready.
You should know why you ended up in the hospital as you were the one in an accident. Ding Jiayi, let’s say that you suffered from amnesia. Let me tell you, we are in the year 2000 now, not in 1997. Qiao Zijin has been studying in college for a year and Nan Nan has just finished her college entrance examination. We are filing for divorce. No matter what tricks you are up to, let me be frank with you, I don’t have the time and the mood to play along with you. You are right about something. I am very busy. It will cost a lot of money for Nan Nan to go to college. We have owed a lot of money because of your accident. If you want to fool around, do so with Qiao Zijin. We will definitely file for a divorce. It will not be postponed because of your amnesia.


If this is what you have in mind, then let me tell you that it won’t work. Regardless of whether you suffer from amnesia or not, we will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to file for divorce before the end of August. Of course, it is alright if you refuse to go. I do not need you to be present. I can file for divorce by litigation. At most, it will take more time. You should know very well that we do not have many belongings at home. After the divorce, we will not have to go through so much trouble like other people do or to divide our assets. I will not take back what I promised to give you when you left two years ago. But you have to pay for half of your medical bills this time.

This was the last thing that he could do for Ding Jiayi.

Old Qiao, are you crazy? Why are you talking about divorce? As husband and wife, it is normal to quarrel. We have not gotten to the extent of bringing up divorce. We still have two daughters. Aren’t you worried that you will give them a scare by bringing up divorce without any apparent reason? If we really end up divorcing, how should they face others at school? Is it good for them that their parents are divorced?
There was a flicker of panic in Ding Jiayi’s eyes. But she continued with her pretenses.



Old Qiao, I know that you are unhappy because of what happened with the five thousand yuan. I have admitted my mistake to you. I promised it will never happen again. Nan Nan and Zijin need to go to high school and college. It adds up to a huge sum of money. Can we work on earning money and nurturing our daughters? You are making a mess of everything right now.
Ding Jiayi thought for a while before clenching her fists that were on her lap.
Old Qiao, I promise that this is for real. Will you give me one last chance? It will be a great honor if we have two college students in our family. Zijin and Nan Nan are our daughters. Shouldn’t we take into consideration their feelings?

Qiao Dongliang sighed.
Actually, I am glad to hear this from you.

Ding Jiayi’s eyes lit up. Had Old Qiao been touched by her and agreed not to file for a divorce?

However, I don’t harbor much hope that you are sincere and that you will make good on your promise. If you told me all these three years ago, I would feel slightly better. I would not be as bitterly disappointed as today. I feel that it is no longer possible between the two of us. You are right. It is an honor to have two college students in the family. I have to file for a divorce in order to realize this dream. Ding Jiayi, you do not do what you preach. You won’t be fair to Nan Nan. Even if you compromise for the time being, you will revert to your old ways as time passes. You will be hard on Nan Nan in order to help Qiao Zijin. You will disregard the fact that both of them are your daughters.

Qiao Dongliang had zero confidence in Ding Jiayi.

You said that we should not divorce for our children’s sake. However, I beg to differ. Qiao Zijin has been led astray by you. Of course, you suffered for what you have done as well. You have ruined Qiao Zijin. I cannot allow Nan Nan to be destroyed by you. Since you have the energy to come up with the idea of suffering from amnesia, it seems that you don’t need people to take care of you anymore.
