Chapter 23 – Don’t Think of Coming Home! (别回家了！)
Qiao Weimin the troublemaker had been causing such a huge disturbance for so long. Now that Jing Yunzhao was proven to be completely unrelated to those hooligans, where would he place his face?
The moment that he heard about one hooligan that ran away, he began to cause a fuss again.
Jing Yunzhao listened and instead of being angry, she smiled.
When they were preparing to head to the police station, she had already suspected that Qiao Weimin would bring up her absence in school this morning. Thus, before they left, she borrowed the phone in the office to contact Doctor Gan.
However, it was still due to luck that Doctor Gan had thought of leaving his number. If not, she definitely wouldn’t be able to prove her innocence this time!
“Director, Teacher Jin, please wait a little longer. The person who was with me earlier today will be here shortly,” said Jing Yunzhao.
Before Jing Yunzhao had even finished her sentence, an old man was seen walking straight towards her.
“So it was Old Doctor Gan!” Teacher Jing momentarily sighed a breath of relief.
Jing Yunzhao began to formally introduce him, “This is Doctor Gan Songbai, Senior Doctor Gan is employed at the county town’s hospital. His character and reputation are all undeniably good. He would definitely not lie. After arriving at the county town this morning, I coincidentally came across Doctor Gan. Because I’m very interested in practising Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM), I headed to the medicinal marketplace with him. So why is it that when it came to Qiao Weimin’s mouth, Doctor Gan has become a hooligan?!”
Qiao Weimin’s face was red.
He didn’t think the one who came would be an old man!
“So it’s Mr. Qiao… This isn’t the first time we’ve met so I’ll be honest. When I saw this kiddo’s prescription, I firmly believed that it could save your wife, but you just refused to use it. At that time, I felt that you were an unreasonable person. Yet, I didn’t think that not only are you unfeeling and unsympathetic towards your own wife, you’re also so heartless towards such a little child…” Gan Songbai sighed.
A life had ended, because of his willfulness.
Now that Gan Songbai had arrived, even if Qiao Weimin had a thousand mouths, he still has no way to continue spouting nonsense.
Despite all that, he still believed that Jing Yunzhao was lying, but he didn’t have any evidence. He endured a stomach full of anger but could only give up. He lifted his foot, preparing to leave.
However, before he could, the director had already left ahead of him.
That same day, the director contacted the town’s neighbourhood committee, hoping for them to reconsider his custodial rights.
Ning Xiang Town, a part of Huaning county, was only a small place. Such matters did not require complicated procedures to be handled. The crucial point was that the school had to be involved and after explaining the reasons, a conclusion was to be made on the spot!
Jing Yunzhao was only 15 years old. With neither parents nor siblings, the position of her guardian was to temporarily be the neighbourhood committee’s responsibility.
At the same time, Qiao Weimin couldn’t even dream of using his privileges as her Stepfather to do things from then on!
Everything happened so fast that before Qiao Weimin had even begun to react, things were already set in stone. The official documents had been thoroughly implemented. He couldn’t protest anything even if he wanted to.
“You don’t want to acknowledge me as your father? Fine! Just fine! From now on, don’t you dare come home!” Qiao Weimin shouted venomously and left after leaving those words.
Jing Yunzhao finally felt relieved.
From her rebirth till now, she had finally managed to solve the problem of her custodial rights. From now on, it would be impossible for Qiao Weimin to disgust her the way he did in her previous life.
Plus, she had already been prepared to leave the Qiaos, so the necessary identification paperwork and such were all already stored in her space. She only brought the clothes she bought with her own money. The rest of it was clothes that Qiao Hongye didn’t want and were handed down to her. She, of course, wouldn’t keep Qiao Hongye’s second-hand goods.
As for the nightly hours, she would stay in the school dormitory during the weekdays, and she already had plans for the weekend. Her space was so wide, she could just hide somewhere and enter her space.
