Chapter 869 -869: Who Said We Are Family?
“She spent seven years building up your company, laying a solid foundation for you, and for the next decade and a half, you’ve just been living off the old capital. By the time I was in high school, your company had already failed. Could it be that the ‘later period’ you mentioned was this one?”
Qiao Yin’s eyes reddened slightly, her mother had poured so much effort into Qiao Haidong’s company, but sadly Qiao Haidong didn’t cherish it at all.
“You even went to beg Grandmother for help to get you through tough times, do you think I don’t know?”
Qiao Haidong vehemently retorted, “I never begged your Grandmother! What does an old lady know about running a business? What use would begging her be? She couldn’t help me at all!”

“Has your conscience been eaten by a dog, Qiao Haidong? When you needed my Grandmother, you’d call her ‘mom’, but when you don’t, she’s just ‘an old lady’. My Grandmother has been practicing medicine for so many years and knows far more people than you. Have you forgotten how you begged her to help you sell medicines and medicinal materials?”
“All of that is nonsense, stop making things up! Isn’t it just because you don’t want me to run the Hospital? Fine, I won’t run it. Why must you say these things that discredit my abilities?”
Seeing his shamelessness, Qiao Yin knew it was useless to say more, “Of course, it’s impossible for you to run the Hospital, stop dreaming. Your visit today, it wouldn’t happen to be about eyeing the Hospital, would it? This ‘illness’ of yours is just an excuse, right? You know very well why you vomited, and you deliberately had Qiao Lainan play along with your act. With your love for acting, why don’t you become an actor?”
“Who’s acting? I really was vomiting severely and felt unwell, that’s why I came to the Hospital!”
Qiao Haidong was nearly roaring, “Do you think I care about this lousy Hospital? My company was much bigger than this Hospital before! I only wanted to be helpful because I was worried you might be overwhelmed, but since you’ve misunderstood me, forget it! Even if you beg me for help in the future, I won’t help you!”
Qiao Yin looked at him mockingly, “You, help me? With what ability of yours? If I let you run the Hospital for a few days, it would go bankrupt.”
Qiao Haidong’s face alternated between blue and white with humiliation, and indeed his own company had failed. He couldn’t find a way to refute Qiao Yin.
Off to the side, Qiao Lainan suddenly tugged at his clothes, “Eldest Uncle, you said you would ask for me…”
She only got halfway through her sentence, but Qiao Haidong already understood her intent, something he had agreed to before they came.
In the heat of the argument with Qiao Yin, he had forgotten all about it.
Assuming the posture of an elder, he commanded, “Lainan is out of work right now, find her a job in the Hospital, an easy one, and pay her a good salary, do you understand?”
“I don’t understand.”
“You!”
Qiao Haidong clenched his chest in frustration, “Fine, you don’t want me to help you with the Hospital, but can’t you even do this small favor? Lainan is my niece, your cousin, she is family to us!”
Qiao Yin gave him a sidelong glance, “Who is family with you?”
Qiao Haidong looked at Qiao Yin’s indifferent expression and clear eyes and his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that she really knew she wasn’t his biological daughter? Had she found her biological father?
In the past, he had also asked Shen Tang who the child’s father really was, but back then Shen Tang had said that the child’s father was already dead.
Qiao Haidong frowned, a strong sense of unease welling up inside him. If Qiao Yin knew she wasn’t his biological child, she would probably be even colder toward him in the future, and even using Qiao Jiasen as leverage might not work anymore!
He suppressed his anxiety, deliberately putting on a resolute front, “We are family! It’s no use even if you deny it, a family must help each other, and you must sort out Lainan’s job!”
