Rebirth To A Military Marriage: Good Morning Chief Chapter 1780 - Dowry

Chapter 1780: Dowry

He could not understand why other moms were so good while his own mom was so bad.

In the past, his grandparents and father had liked him very much and had treated him very well. But now, all the adults in the family disliked him and were starting to shun him. The auntie at home said that the sight of him reminded his grandparents of his mom, which infuriated them. It was entirely his mom’s fault that their family had gotten into such a situation. He hated his mom to death!

Chen Feng had not been brought up by Qiao Zijin but by Mother Chen. As such, Chen Feng had never been on especially good terms with Qiao Zijin. Even after Qiao Zijin had gotten divorced from Chen Jun and left the Chen family, Chen Feng had never thrown a tantrum because he missed Qiao Zijin. In fact, to the young Chen Feng, there had been absolutely no impact on his life whether Qiao Zijin was around or not.

Little Chen Feng pouted, and with a face similar to that of Chen Jun, he silently returned to his room. Recently, no one in the Chen family had been in the mood to sit down together for a proper meal.

Qiao Nan had already known that the Chen family would be implicated in Qiao Zijin’s matter, but she had not thought much about this situation. From the day Qiao Zijin got pregnant with Chen Jun’s child, she had nothing to do with Chen Jun anymore, much less the Chen family.

No matter how bad the Chen family’s situation got because of Qiao Zijin, that was between the Chen family and Qiao Zijin.

“See, I told you so. I knew that there would be a sequel.”

After having received the news, the station could not afford to test their luck and thus investigated the information that had been sent in anonymously. After a thorough investigation, they found that everything the anonymous sender had said was, in fact, true! Not only was Qiao Zijin the police commissioner’s ex-wife, but Qiao Zijin also had a house that was worth almost two million yuan under her name!

F*ck! If someone who had a property worth two million still needed donations, then what would those people who had neither a house nor savings do? Should they all jump into the river to end their lives?

What Qiao Zijin was doing could be counted as donation fraud. There were tons of poor people in the world. Given Qiao Zijin’s background, she should never qualify for donations from other people.

With solid evidence in hand, the staff from the station immediately headed to interview Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi. “We would like to ask whether Miss Qiao is truly so poor that you’re unable to afford your own surgery. Is your family really unable to afford Miss Qiao’s kidney transplant?”

At the sight of the reporters, Ding Jiayi was stunned. Had they not already posed these questions before? Why were they asking them again? “Of course. Of course, it’s real. If you don’t believe us, we can show you our bank books. You’re from the television station. I’m sure you’re able to check our bank accounts to see how much money we have in our accounts.”

Of course it was all real. Their family was already almost at the end of the road. They could barely fork out the money to pay for Zijin’s hospitalization bills, let alone Zijin’s surgery.

Now that she was lacking financially, Ding Jiayi could not help but reminisce about the days when Qiao Nan was still around. At that time, she had never needed to worry or fret over finances. Even if the person in need of money was Qiao Zijin, the one who would eventually solve the problem for them would always be Qiao Nan.

But this wretched girl was so vicious. Qiao Nan clearly knew that Zijin was waiting for this sum of money to save her life, but she had been so heartless as to donate all that money away, wanting to see Zijin die. That was impossible. No matter what it took, she would never let Zijin die.

Since Qiao Nan was heartless enough to leave Zijin to die, Qiao Nan would similarly leave Old Qiao and Ding Jiayi in the lurch if anything were to happen to them in the future. The only one she could rely on was Zijin alone. Once she grew old and could no longer walk, she would have to rely on Zijin to take care of her. If Zijin was gone, she and Old Qiao would simply have to wait for death.

“Madam Ding, are you sure that you’re telling the truth?” There was a glint in the reporter’s eyes. If it was not for the evidence she had in her hands, she would really have been deceived by Ding Jiayi’s insistence. Hahaha. What a drama queen. They were all great actors and actresses. Their lies were more convincing than the truth!

“Yes, I’m sure. I’m really sure. I’ve said that you can go check it for yourself if you don’t believe me!”

“Ding Jiayi, do you know that we, as reporters, have no right to check on your bank accounts? But Madam Ding, since you’re so certain, can we ask whether you know how much the house you’re living in is worth? If you guys sell this house, you’ll get at least a million yuan. Is this money not enough for Miss Qiao’s treatment?”

“How can you say such a thing?” Ding Jiayi’s expression darkened as she became upset. “How can we sell our house? Where would our family of three sleep if we were to sell our house? Are you asking us to sleep on the streets?”

Their family did not have cash, but they had never said that they lacked a roof over their heads. Earlier on, they had always been harping on the issue of cash. But why was their house suddenly being brought into the picture?

“Is that so? Does your family really not have a second apartment to live in once you sell this house?” The more Ding Jiayi insisted on her stance, the more upset the reporter got. She had no other choice. Their station had received a huge sum of donations, but now, they knew for sure that Qiao Zijin was not poor at all. In fact, she owned a property! Even if they were to sell this house, the Qiao family would still have another house for Qiao Zijin to live in. The money they would receive from the sale would be more than enough for Qiao Zijin to have ten kidney transplants!

Why would someone like that need any donations? This would simply be ruining their station’s reputation!

If Ding Jiayi had not rushed in front of the camera while wailing and sobbing during the live broadcast that day, begging the station for their help, their station would never have made such a simple error. They would never have reported the Qiao family’s situation after only doing a rough background check to ensure that the Qiao family’s situation was more or less the same as what Ding Jiayi had said.

Without this huge premise, their station would never have made such an error in their reporting. Moreover, they had no idea whether their way of handling the matter afterward would be enough to salvage their station’s reputation and allow them to regain public trust.

Ding Jiayi did not sense a problem, but Qiao Zijin sensed that something was amiss. “Miss Reporter, why are you suddenly asking about that?” The reporter was clearly asking whether their family only had one house. Everything had been fine, so why had the reporter suddenly brought up the issue of their house?

Would Qiao Zijin really not know about her own finances? Of course Qiao Zijin knew everything about it. Qiao Nan had taken on the burden of paying for the mortgage of a house. At the time of purchase, that house had only been worth six hundred thousand yuan. But now that the property prices had soared, it was worth more than two million yuan!

That house was her dowry. It was her personal a.s.set that could not be touched!
