Chapter 325: Something Happened to the Qiao Family

t, and you are willing to wait. It has nothing to do with me."Qiao Bao'er's eyes were a little restless, her voice lowered, her tone flat.Pei Yi looked at her in astonishment, as if she couldn't belie...Jo Bao'er was selecting a computer in Digital City, but she didn't buy one before receiving an urgent call.

He hurried to the airport and took a short flight to the city center hospital.

She hadn't contacted the Qiao family in a long time. She didn't even call to wish them a Merry Christmas last time, and everyone went their separate ways. They had long since gotten used to being out of touch.

But Qiao Ba'er felt heavyhearted when she heard of her father's sudden illness.

"How… how is he"

When Qiao Baor arrived at the city hospital, it was already 11 pm. The inpatient department seemed a little deserted. As she approached her grandmother's ward, she happened to see her grandma, Qiao Lao Tai Tai, talking with the head of the hospital.

As soon as Old Lady Qiao saw her coming, her eyes widened with worry. Her weathered hand grasped her arm tightly and she questioned, "Where's Jun Zhimu Why haven't the people from your family come"

She didn't know what to say. Her grandmother was still so stubborn and materialistic.

"You actually got a divorce from him How could you be so foolish You lost your child, and you didn't even ask for compensation. Now that your father is in trouble, what are you going to do Where are you going to find someone"

Grandma Qiao began to cry as she spoke. Qiao Baier usually loved to argue with them, but she rarely saw her grandmother so flustered. Her grandmother and father came from humble beginnings; perhaps that's what made them even more obsessed with power and wealth.

She used to dislike their style, but after going through so much, she feels they aren't easy either, especially her grandmother who is so old.

People, truly grow up and change.

"Grandma, you sit here. I'll go talk to the doctor."

She couldn't fake any friendliness, speaking in a low voice as she helped the elderly person beside her to sit down on a nearby chair. She then went into the doctor's office with the director for a detailed discussion.

"Your father was on his way to work this morning when his car suddenly hit the guardrail. Passersby called the police and he was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. Luckily, he's been saved..." The doctor gave her a brief account of what had happened.

"My dad seems to be in good health all the time, I've never heard of him having any illnesses. Is it human-made"

Qiao Bao'er flatly refused. There were too many conspiracies surrounding her, making her have to doubt everything.

"Whether the car hitting the guardrail was intentional or not, we have to wait for the police to release their findings. However, it seems you don't know much about your father's condition."

The doctor picked up the CT scan, X-rays, and various test results and handed them to her. "Your father should have had a long-term habit of drinking heavily, smoking, and staying up late."

He has cirrhosis of the liver and his lungs aren't doing well either. This time, the main issue was bleeding in the heart muscle blood vessels...

Jo Bao'er listened, her whole body stunned.

She really didn't know her father, Qiao Wenyuan, was in such poor health.

"Well, so, how is he now" she asked, her voice trembling.

"Don't worry too much. You'll need to stay in the intensive care unit for a couple of days to be observed and make sure your condition is stable before we decide on treatment."

Joe Wenyu is a very well-known entrepreneur in the city. Hospital administrators and high-level officials all know him. Even the director specially assigned to perform his surgery examination didn't dare to be careless.

"Mr. Qiao is lucky in this situation. His cardiovascular system ruptured and bled, but the bleeding was relatively small. He was sent to the hospital promptly, but his blood vessels are weak, and he is generally quite frail..."

The doctor paused, looked at her, and reminded her, "Don't provoke him."

Qiao Bao'er nodded stiffly.

Everyone knows that Qiao Wenyu, the richest man in the city, came from a humble background. When he was young, he married Gu's eldest daughter and climbed up the social ladder by getting support from the Gu family, which is how he reached his current status. At the same time, Qiao Wenyu's private life is also a topic of conversation among people in the circle during their downtime, such as his estrangement and conflict with his daughter, who he rarely sees.

Qiao Bao'er hates her father, Qiao Wenyu. He cheated on his wife and brought his mistress home, which led to the death of her mother. He is ungrateful and has betrayed her grandfather's kindness.

But now…

She went to the ward. On the white hospital bed, her father lay there with his eyes closed, looking haggard and frail. His breathing was slow and shallow. The entire ward was very quiet, only punctuated by the beeping of medical instruments.

"Where are Ye Wei and the others"

She suddenly found out that her father was ill, and only her grandmother ran around taking care of him. Her stepmother, who was always sweet-talking but had ulterior motives, wasn't there at all.

"Bao'er, how is your father now"

A woman's figure dashed over from the elevator. Gu Ruyue seemed to be in a hurry, her steps hurried and flustered.

Jo Baoer saw her aunt's flustered expression as she rushed over, a little surprised.

On the other side, Old Mrs. Qiao saw Ru Yan coming and immediately came over, "Xiao Yan, you're here, Wen Yu has had an accident. I'm so scared that I don't know what to do..."

"How's your dad doing What did the doctor say" Gu Ruoyan was genuinely worried, panting from running, she grabbed Qiao Baoer and kept asking.

"The doctor said the situation is stable now, and we need to wait for another two days..."

Qiao Bao'er told the truth, but Old Mrs. Qiao was very unhappy. "You just don't care about your dad. You listen to those doctors and wait and see, until when"

"None of them have woken up yet, and I don't know when they will. They just look down on us, think our Qiao family is nobody. You go find someone from the Jun family. If anyone from the Jun family is here, see if they dare to dawdle any longer. Don't they realize human life is precious!"

Jo Bao'er hung her head and didn't answer. Gu Ruoyan comforted the elderly, "Brother-in-law will be fine, don't worry too much, we'll help handle it."

"Xiao Yan, I know you have a kind heart. Let's just forget about what happened before. After all, we're family. Bao'er listens to you, you tell her. This world is dark and complicated. Wen Yu's life is in this situation. If something happens to him, I won't live either..."

Grandma Qiao cried miserably, and finally Gu Ruoyan coaxed the nanny to send her back to the Qiao family first.

"Bao'er, don't blame your grandma for being materialistic. She was poor in the past and is always afraid of people looking down on her. She just cares about appearances."

Gu Ruoyan found a doctor and asked about her condition. After that, she felt much better. The two sat outside the ward chatting, and they seemed worried that Qiao Baier had a bad relationship with the Qiao family and left in a huff.

Joe Bao'er looked at her and said stiffly, "I know."

Joe's relationship with her mother wasn't good. Her grandmother used to like her aunt quite a bit. Gu Ruyue was indeed kind-hearted and always put others first.

It was already past midnight, the hospital was very cold at night. Gu Ruyue asked a nurse for some cotton swabs and a cup of water. She wet the cotton swab and gently applied it to her father Qiao Wenyu's dry lips. She moved with great tenderness.

He turned to her and ordered, "Bao'er, it's already very late. You go find a nearby hotel to rest first. I'll stay here tonight."

After all, he was her father. Qiao Bao'er felt she should stay, "Auntie, you go to rest, I'll watch over here."

"Will you take care of people" Gu Ruyue chuckled playfully.

"Where did Ye Wei go She's nowhere to be found when it matters most."

Qiao Bao'er kept a composed expression. If it truly was necessary to take care of things, it would be Ye Wei who came over. In case anything happened, Shadow hadn't even shown up.

“Your grandma said she's busy with a rush job... Never mind her, right now getting well is the most important thing.”

Gu Ruyue's face was also quite angry, but she considered the bigger picture and spoke calmly about serious matters. "Also, about finding someone for your father's illness, you don't need to go to the Jun family. In case your father's condition worsens, I will go to the Jun family's patriarch..."

"Auntie, you seem to know Old Master Jun very well"

Qiao Bao'er blurted it out, and Gu Ruoyan seemed to realize that her tone was too presumptuous. Her face flushed slightly with embarrassment. She changed the subject, reminding her, "You should find a hotel to rest."

Qiao Bao'er didn't ask any further.

She felt that Gu Ruyi was very determined to stay and take care of her father, while she herself was really not good at taking care of others. She agreed to check into a nearby hotel for a rest and come over in the morning to replace Gu Ruyi.

She had randomly chosen a hotel, but she couldn't sleep either.

She had a very poor relationship with the Qiao family. She never thought that her usually domineering and overbearing father would get sick. Thinking back on many past events, she recalled the two sisters surnamed Ye, as well as the Jun family and Jun Zimo...ings got awkward last time, so this time we had a big meal together, cleared the air, and now we can get along better...""Oh." Qiao Bao'er no longer expressed her thoughts.In a while, she reminded him...
