Chapter 34 -34 Breaking the Rules
Checks like this are usually beyond the notice of ordinary people.
But Zhou Jin’an was not an ordinary person; he recognized the check with just one glance.
In Rong City, large families like the Zhou family and the An family have their own unique features on their checks.
For instance, the checks of the Zhou family always start with a “Z,” while those of the An family always end with the number 3.
The check that Zhou Jin’an was holding ended with a 3.
“What else did she ask you to do?”
Zhou Jin’an’s hand clenched the check, his veins bulging, he coldly snapped, his pent-up anger rushing like a tide.
Zhang Xiaoxia was terrified, just shaking her head, “Nothing else, just this.”
“Are you really carrying Qiao De’s child?”
Cheng Lu demanded in a muffled voice.
Zhang Xiaoxia drooped her eyelids, her head could not hang any lower.
Silence equaled an answer.
She wasn’t pregnant, yet she lied and pushed Qiao De into a pit of fire.
Cheng Lu was furious, slapping Zhang Xiaoxia on the forehead, she couldn’t bear it and fell straight to the ground.
“Women’s hearts are most poisonous; you damn well act like killing without owing a life!”
Cheng Lu cursed.
Zhang Xiaoxia felt guilty, not daring to argue even half a word; she fell to the ground and just lay there, wishing she could disappear.
“Director Zhou, shall we call the police?”
Cheng Lu suggested.
Zhang Xiaoxia heard this and was completely panicked.
She had originally planned to let things rot, but now she dared not.
She knelt on the ground, bowing her head like she was pounding garlic, “Sir, I’ll give you the check, please, let me go this time, I was blinded by greed when I did such foolish things. I won’t dare again.”
She kept bowing her head, her forehead banging on the floor, thumping loudly.
Zhou Jin’an leaned back in the sofa, his eyes both dark and cold.
“What about the money you conned?”
“I… I signed up for a few beauty treatments, and it’s… all gone.”
In this world, there are those who eat bread dipped in human blood and think nothing of it.
Qiao De was still a student, inexperienced and completely unguarded.
But those creatures stretched out their claws toward him, even trying to drag him into hell.
That’s really damnable!
“Send her to Jinma Entertainment.”
Zhou Jin’an’s thin lips slightly parted; he had made a decision.
Zhang Xiaoxia completely broke down, “Sir, please no, I don’t want to go to that kind of place.”
Jinma Entertainment, a place of vice and chaos teeming with all sorts of people, just needed a word from Zhou Jin’an, and those people would have a thousand ways to torture her.
Cheng Lu stepped forward, grabbed the woman’s arm, and forcibly dragged her out.
The room was quiet once again, but Zhou Jin’an’s heart could not be calm anymore.
He had been clutching that check for a long time, a decision quietly germinating in his heart.
The next day, Zhou Jin’an went to the office very early.
He had just arrived when Chen Yin knocked and came in.
“Director Zhou, Ding Hao just returned from California, USA, and is currently consulting at Central Hospital. He has made achievements in neurosurgery; do you want him to…”
Chen Yin tentatively asked.
Zhou Jin’an was buried in reviewing documents.
He had not slept well last night; the back of his head throbbed painfully.
“Arrange for him to consult Qiao En’s brother.”
That evening.
Qiao En was as usual, staying in the hospital to accompany Qiao De.
He was in the ICU, still unconscious.
Through a thick glass door, Qiao En felt immense pain.
She had been close to Qiao De since childhood, and the siblings had a harmonious relationship; his accident pained Qiao En the most.

After reporting back to Zhou Jin’an, Chen Yin contacted Ding Hao, but surprisingly, he did not immediately consult Qiao De.
He just requested Qiao De’s medical records, then disappeared.
At one o’clock in the morning, on a whim, he led a group of doctors to Qiao De’s hospital room.
Qiao En, exhausted from days of running back and forth, was asleep on a bench outside the ward.
She was sleeping drowsily when suddenly she heard a scream from inside the ward.
“Ah De!”
Qiao En woke up from her sleep.
She then found that around Qiao De’s bed, there was a circle of white coats.
Some were recording, some were taking photos; everyone was extremely busy.
In the dead of night, doctors wouldn’t appear in the ward unless there was an emergency.
Qiao En’s heart sank; a bad premonition welled up.
She twisted open the door and rushed in.
“What’s happened to my brother?”
No one answered her; everyone went about their business, continuing with their tasks.
The person in the lead, wearing a white coat, bent over, holding a long needle, aiming for Qiao De’s forehead.
“What are you doing?”
Qiao En’s eyes widened.
Lately, too many unexpected events had happened to Qiao De, and Qiao En, tense and anxious, couldn’t help but worry more.
“Stop her.”
The man wore a medical mask, his face well concealed.
As he spoke, someone quickly walked toward Qiao En, grabbing her arm.
“If there’s a problem, confront me—my brother is innocent!”
Qiao En struggled, fine beads of cold sweat appearing on her forehead.
What on earth were these people trying to do?
“Shut up!”
The man barked coldly.
He kept his head down, focusing intently on the needle.
One second, two seconds, three seconds…
As time ticked by, Qiao En’s heart tightened more and more.
The man’s hand clutched the long, thin needle, his fingers twisting methodically.
The tip of the needle slowly penetrated Qiao De’s forehead, and as it went deeper, Qiao De’s face twitched slightly.
Then, a miracle occurred.
Suddenly, Qiao De opened his eyes and saw Qiao En.
“Sis.”
He called out clearly.
“Ah De, you’re awake; you’re finally awake.”
Qiao En was overjoyed.
She wanted to rush to Qiao De’s side, but those people held on to her, unwilling to let go.
Ding Hao, calm and composed, took out a medical flashlight, shone it on Qiao De’s eyes, and asked him a few simple questions.
Qiao De answered fluently.
“Move him to general ward for observation.”
Ding Hao methodically put away that needle and walked out expressionlessly.
Qiao En hurried after him, “Doctor, thank you for saving my brother.”
She bowed deeply to Ding Hao.
Ding Hao’s gaze swept over Qiao En, but he didn’t stop walking.
“You’re really noisy!”
His eyes were narrow and mischievous, completely at odds with the patient and meticulous temperament of a doctor.
“Doctor Ding truly lives up to his reputation, that skill is simply extraordinary!”
“Of course, but his consultation fee is so high, ordinary folks can’t afford him!”
…
As the nurses gossiped together, Qiao En caught a bit of the conversation.
She felt suspicious but couldn’t afford to ask more.
Soon, Qiao De was transferred to a general ward.
He appeared to be in good condition; the nurse performed routine checks, and all his indicators had returned to normal.
“Sis, did I scare you to death?”
As soon as Qiao De spoke, his eyes reddened.
Qiao En clasped his hand, comforting him, “You certainly did! Don’t scare me like that ever again; you need to live well.”
Qiao De nodded vigorously.
He had just woken up, and the doctor had advised him to rest more.
After the injection, Qiao De fell back into a deep sleep.
The weight in Qiao En’s heart lifted, and soon, she lay down beside Qiao De’s bed and also fell asleep.
This time, she dreamt a long dream.
In the dream, she and Qiao De were still children, riding bikes—one big, one small—along the Moat.
The wind was whooshing, the sky a deep shade of blue; she and Qiao De were laughing and playing, absolutely joyful.
Suddenly, Qiao De tripped on a stone and fell heavily to the ground.
Qiao En was terrified and exclaimed, “Ah De——”
This shout, so loud, woke her from her sleep.
Upon waking, she noticed a tall figure standing beside her.
