The bracelet was on Qiao Qiao's wrist from the beginning, but Qiao Changdong felt it was unsafe and was afraid that someone would take it away, so he took it off.

As for the money, he had checked with the bank while driving a truck in another city, and it was real!

He was quite surprised when Qiao Qiao suddenly wore this bracelet last time, but he forgot about it afterward because he was busy with other things.

Now that he can tell Qiao Qiao that the bracelet was left to her by her mother, his doubts resurface.

"Sweetie, how did you know all this?" he said, looking at Qiao Xiaoyun beside him.

Qiao Xiaoyun rolled her eyes in annoyance: "I'm your sister, not a gossip."

“My mother told me,” Qiao Qiao said.

She poked at the bracelet on her wrist with her delicate little finger: "My mother is inside. Yesterday... my mother called me, and I went in to keep her company."

These events are not part of the original storyline of this world.

Qiao Qiao said that she was not subject to any restrictions.

"Dad, if I can't wake up again, don't worry. I've gone inside, but I'll try to get out as soon as possible and never let you worry again."

silence.

silence.

Several seconds of silence followed.

Qiao Xiaoyun: "Oh no, it seems like someone really lost their mind."

Qiao Qiao: "..."

Qiao Changdong was displeased. He hugged his daughter tightly and glared angrily at Qiao Xiaoyun: "What nonsense are you talking about? You're the one who's out of your mind! Your whole family is out of your mind!"

Qiao Xiaoyun retorted angrily, "Aren't you my whole family?!"

"No, not now, but tomorrow."

These words infuriated Qiao Xiaoyun, who reached out to twist the man's arm, but then there was a sudden knock on the ward door.

Then the doorknob was turned, and a head poked in.

The man's eyes lit up when he saw the three people sitting side by side on the hospital bed.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard Qiao Xiaoyun, who was sitting on the far side, say to him, "You've come at the right time. Give this brat a beating. He doesn't know how to respect his elders!"

Meng Zhengcheng wouldn't dare.

Don't be fooled by how much the siblings are fighting now.

But Qiao Xiaoyun loved this younger brother the most.

How painful is it?

Before Qiao Changdong went to the provincial hospital a few days ago, she searched his pockets and took all the small bills he had, just in case her brother was short of money and suffered mistreatment outside.

So he just smiled and looked at Qiao Qiao, not saying anything: "Oh my, Qiao Qiao woke up as soon as I arrived. It seems I am Qiao Qiao's lucky star."

"Pah, you can be even more shameless!" Qiao Xiaoyun spat, quickly turning her anger towards him.

Meng Zhengcheng didn't care and kept smiling, but in his heart he was congratulating himself on his cleverness.

See? He was right.

His wife has always been 'independent and domineering'. She can complain about anyone or anything in her family, and sometimes she even drags him into it.

But if he actually shows any dissatisfaction with her family, she can immediately put on a show of displeasure.

Meng Zhengcheng was glad that he had dodged another bullet.

He walked over and patted the little girl who was tilting her head back, no longer afraid of him at all: "When did you wake up? Do you need to go to a big hospital for a check-up?"

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Brother Qiao gave me his work unit's number before. I can call him and talk to him. He should know which hospitals are good there."

"No need," Qiao Qiao replied, shaking her head slightly. "I'm not feeling unwell anywhere, it's just... I overslept."

"Really? You can sleep for a whole day and night? You'll turn into a little piggy!"

"No, I'm not a little piggy, I'm my daddy's little darling." Qiao Qiao snorted, turned her head and climbed onto Qiao Changdong's lap, sitting obediently.

"Never mind, he seems to be fine now." Qiao Xiaoyun said, "It's getting late, let's go to bed early and be discharged tomorrow morning. We can keep an eye on him tonight."

"Mom was worried and didn't go back. She was afraid you would tell her, so she's sleeping at my house now. When you go back later, Cheng, please tell Mom so she can rest assured."

Qiao Xiaoyun wasn't supposed to be on the night shift tonight, but she switched shifts with a colleague so she could be closer to Qiao Qiao.

She then sighed softly, "I don't know what's wrong with me lately, I've been coming to the hospital so often, it's really bad luck. When I get my next vacation, let's go to Nan Zong to pay our respects."

Nanzong is a temple in a city near their area.

It has a history of several thousand years, and during these thousands of years, it has survived six major fires, all of which were miraculously preserved.

When something goes wrong in the family, many people will go to pray to the gods, hoping to turn bad luck into good and protect their home. It's said to be very effective.

This time, Qiao Changdong didn't contradict Qiao Xiaoyun, clearly having thought of the same thing. He happened to have a car, so it would be convenient for him to drive there.

"..." Qiao Qiao.

The topic just abruptly shifted.

She touched her small bracelet, feeling a little confused, wondering if her family believed her.

And that's when she thought that way.

Little bubbles started appearing on her forehead.

Inside the tiny purple bubble, a little figure crosses its arms, pouts, and has several question marks above its head.

"What...what...what is this?" Meng Zhengcheng stared wide-eyed in astonishment as he saw it for the first time.

I stared in disbelief at the little girl's tiny bubble on her forehead.

"A country bumpkin who's never seen the world." Qiao Xiaoyun, who had met her several times already, spoke with an inexplicable pride.

She already knew from her two sisters-in-law that Qiao Qiao was able to bring delicious food home using this little bubble.

"Sweetie, could this be related to the fact that you've been unconscious for so long this time?"

Qiao Changdong, on the other hand, thought about it more deeply.

He touched the small bracelet on her wrist again: "It's also related to what you just said, right?"

Qiao Qiao nodded repeatedly, her eyes sparkling with admiration: "Dad, you're so smart!"

Qiao Changdong smiled, stroking the little girl's soft hair. The spot where her hair had been shaved had already grown back with fluffy stubble.

Recalling everything that happened from the moment she kowtowed.

His heart felt a little heavy.

Her body can heal itself quickly; she can even use the tiny bubbles on her head to give her family hints…

Perhaps to others, these things that happened to Qiao Qiao might not be bad luck or anything.

But Qiao Changdong always felt that things were not that simple.

He always had a feeling of panic in his heart.

He always felt that, without his knowledge, his precious child was bearing something that he couldn't help him with.

This made him very anxious, uneasy, and heartbroken.

“Baby, Dad doesn’t know what happened to you, but no matter what you say, Dad believes you and is waiting for the day when you tell Dad everything.”
