Chapter 570: It’s Qiao Haidong Again!
Gu Jing was exasperated. He tried to co closer but Qiao Yin waved a needle in her hand, making him stop.
Gu Jing froze in his tracks.
He glanced at the chillingly silver needle, then at Qiao Yin’s calm face. His handso face flushed in frustration.
However, Qiao Yin’s thods scared him. He feared that if she were to stick him with another needle, he’d be unable to speak for a month and might choke in his own anger!
He glared at Qiao Yin, clearly annoyed, and stord out.
No sooner had he left than her grandmother and cousin arrived in Qiao Yin’s office.
Qiao Yin recognized their expressions imdiately. She hurriedly said: “He’s nothing good, I’ve already stuck him with a needle, he left angrily!”
Her grandmother shook her head helplessly: “I thought you’ve finally co around and found a new boyfriend. It seems that my happiness was premature.”
Finishing her words, she returned to her consulting room to continue seeing patients.
Ye Wan didn’t leave. She sighed: “Why are n not good these days? Yinyin, as long as a man doesn’t have too many shortcomings, it’s okay. Nobody’s perfect. You can’t just drive away every suitor. Give them a possibility and spend so ti with them to see how things go.”
Ever since Qiao Yin started running the clinic, a lot of well-aning people had tried to introduce potential partners to her. Although she always refused to et with them, the problem was that she was always at the clinic and people could easily bring their male friends there to et her.
Everyone who t her ended up liking her.
Yet, Qiao Yin couldn’t find anyone suitable. And if anyone tried to pester her, she simply drove them away with harsh words.
“Enough, enough, I got it, cousin. You’d better get back to work. We have many patients today still need to be seen, or else we’ll be busy till night.”
Just as Ye Wan was about to leave, she noticed the bouquet of flowers abandoned at the door. She asked Qiao Yin: “What about these flowers? They’re such a huge bunch, it would be a waste to throw them in the bin. They’re so beautiful and fresh!”
Qiao Yin thought for a mont and reluctantly said: “It would be wasteful to throw them away; the flowers themselves didn’t do anything wrong. So, let’s just dismantle the bouquet and give a few flowers to each patient that cos in today.”
Ye Wan picked up the flowers: “Sounds good. I think everyone will be happy to receive free roses.”
While the two were talking, soone suddenly rushed through the door and directly bumped into Qiao Yin.
Qiao Yin stumbled, almost falling. Fortunately, Ye Wan caught her in ti. Otherwise, she would have taken a hard tumble.
A coarse, piercing voice rang out: “Cousin, I beg you, save !”
Qiao Yin recognized the voice. The one who ran into her was Qiao Lainan!
However, the Qiao Lainan today was completely different from the Qiao Lainan of a few months ago.
Now, she looked malnourished and frail. Her eye sockets were deep, her cheeks hollow, her skin yellow and thin as if she hadn’t eaten in days.
She was dressed in dirty and ragged clothes, her hair a ssy tangle, and she looked haggard with none of the previous gentle and graceful charm.
Qiao Yin frowned and pushed her away, “What do you want?”
Qiao Lainan’s expression was sorrowful: “Cousin, please, I can’t go on!”
Qiao Yin had suffered enough from Qiao Lainan’s past actions that, even at her vulnerable mont, Qiao couldn’t find any pity for her: “If you need soone to save you, you should go to Qiao Haidong, not . Leave.”
“But, Eldest Uncle can’t help . You’re the only one who can help now!”
“If he can’t help, how can I? I can’t help you either. Leave my office now; don’t disturb my work.”
“Cousin, it was Eldest Uncle who gave your address! He said you could definitely help . That’s why I’m here to beg you!”
Qiao Yin could barely suppress her anger: “So it’s Qiao Haidong again!”
“Cousin, please, as long as you help divorce, I’ll do anything for you.”
