Chapter 208 Things Have Get Better?
Jiang Xiaoran was not even six years old when her weight soared to over 100 pounds because of drinking carbonated beverages. Before she was even six, she had already lost several teeth, and her front teeth sounded like she was chewing betel nut when she spoke.
And this skin... it looks like it belongs to someone in their forties.
When Song Qiao arrived at the doctor's office, the doctor told her about Jiang Xiaoran's condition.
Are you the child's mother?
Song Qiao shook her head: "It was like that before, but not anymore. Doctor, what are you trying to say?"
“If this child continues like this, she will be ruined. I suspect she already has high blood pressure, and her heavy reliance on carbonated drinks is damaging her heart and causing her organs to degenerate. I heard there is a correctional facility in Wenzhen. Why don’t we send her there? If we don’t make the tough decision, this child will be finished.”
The doctor was a middle-aged man in his fifties. Song Qiao looked at him and said, "To be honest, I am only her adoptive mother. She has now returned to her biological mother. I cannot make this decision."
After hearing this, Song Qiao decided to explain to the doctor about going to the correctional facility.
“In the spring, I sent her there, but her biological mother and father secretly took her away and falsely accused me of abducting their daughter. The case is still unsolved.”
In this life, Song Qiao decided she could no longer be a saint. Although Jiang Xiaoran spoke sweetly, she was not a good child at heart.
After leaving the doctor's office, Song Qiao returned to the spot where Jiang Xiaoran had received the injection. By the time she arrived, the two policemen had already left.
Song Qiao understood that police officers are always busy and can be called upon at any time.
After paying the fee, Lu Mingxuan returned to the place and saw Song Qiao coming over from afar, so he hurriedly came to greet her.
"Qiaoqiao, the police are gone, what will happen to her?"
He had just observed that Jiang Xiaoran and Tong Yao were chatting happily, and he wondered if she had become a better person.
"What should we do? Maybe we should send her to an orphanage?"
Song Qiao knew Jiang Xiaoran very well; it was all a facade. The reason she chatted so happily with Tong Yao was to give them the illusion that she had changed for the better.
"I think this is the only way." Lu Mingxuan also didn't think highly of Jiang Xiaoran and agreed with Song Qiao's idea.
After saying that, Lu Mingxuan asked again, "What if she doesn't go?"
Song Qiao knew how dangerous it was to let Jiang Xiaoran and Tong Yao be together, but she said with determination, "You have to go, whether you want to or not."
This is the only way for Jiang Xiaoran to survive. The orphanage provides meals with clear labels every day, without the carbonated drinks or junk food that Jiang Xiaoran craves. Once she is properly cared for, her weight will gradually decrease.
In short, Song Qiao couldn't bear to see her head towards destruction.
A corner of Taihe Garden.
The winter wind was biting. Zhao Xiaoya wore a wool coat and looked around like a wealthy lady. She then transferred one million yuan to the man in front of her.
The man was in his thirties, broad-shouldered and burly. Because he was wearing a mask, Zhao Xiaoya couldn't make out his face. His name was Wang Biao.
“I’ve transferred the million to you. I don’t care what method you use, you have to get that bitch Song Qiao in.”
Wang Biao was someone Zhou Dali found, so there's no mistake. Thinking of Song Qiao, Zhao Xiaoya felt resentful.
Wang Biao glanced at Zhao Xiaoya, then nodded indifferently: "Don't worry, I've already promised Brother Li."
Now that she had agreed to Zhou Dali's request, this matter was no longer a problem for Zhao Xiaoya, as she knew that Zhou was a troublesome figure in Jiangcheng.
After receiving the million, Wang Biao discussed his next plan with Zhao Xiaoya, and the two parted ways.
Zhao Xiaoya went to the police station to report that her daughter was missing.
She was greeted by Officer Liu, who asked with a sharp look in his eyes, "You're Zhao Xiaoya? Jiang Xiaoran's mother?"
"That's me, officer. I want to report a case. My daughter, Jiang Xiaoran, is missing."
The police officer looked at her sternly and said, "Your daughter isn't missing, she's in the hospital. We called you two hours ago, but we couldn't get through!"
That number was Zhao Xiaoya's company number, provided by Song Qiao, but she hadn't used it for a long time.
"My daughter is in the hospital?" Zhao Xiaoya feigned surprise.
"Yes, you left a child under six years old alone at home. What kind of mother are you? Besides, we've been trying to get information about the case from you, but you've been playing hide-and-seek with us. Now we have the right to detain you and prosecute you for not cooperating with the police investigation."
Zhao Xiaoya was scolded by Da Liu, but she didn't get angry at all and said, "My daughter is missing. I suspect that her adoptive mother, Song Qiao, took her away."
Officer Liu looked at Zhao Xiaoya, who seemed to be making wild assumptions, and said, "Don't you know there's a crime called false accusation? Last time, Jiang Ming falsely accused Song Qiao of selling her adopted daughter, and as a result, Jiang Xiaoran was in your hands. Let's see how you explain this time."
Da Liu looked at Zhao Xiaoya with annoyance: "We took the child to the hospital because he was injured. Since we couldn't reach you, we called Song Qiao. She's at the hospital with the child now, getting an IV drip."
Upon hearing Da Liu's words, Zhao Xiaoya hurriedly asked, "Which hospital? Is it Huaxia Hospital? I went to look for it, but it's not there."
Officer Liu looked at Zhao Xiaoya: "Just because we can't find you doesn't mean we can falsely accuse someone of abducting your daughter without distinguishing right from wrong."
"I have evidence that Song Qiao and a man took my daughter away!"
Zhao Xiaoya showed Da Liu the surveillance footage she had just retrieved from the hospital: "Look, this is the evidence."
Da Liu didn't have time to argue with her: "Is this the evidence? This is evidence that Song Qiao helped you take care of the child."
Da Liu called Song Qiao in front of Zhao Xiaoya.
"Hello! Officer Liu."
"Where is Jiang Xiaoran now? Zhao Xiaoya went to the hospital but couldn't find her."
Song Qiao glanced at Jiang Xiaoran sitting in the car behind: "We're heading towards the welfare home. The doctor said she can't eat junk food anymore. This is how we get her there."
When Zhao Xiaoya heard that Song Qiao was going to send Jiang Xiaoran to an orphanage, she immediately became furious: "You're not sending her to an orphanage, are you? You didn't sell Ranran last time, are you still not giving up this time?"
Upon hearing Zhao Xiaoya's voice on the phone, Song Qiao quickly said, "Since you're back, we'll return Jiang Xiaoran to you to save the trouble for the orphanage staff."
She would never take Jiang Xiaoran home, no matter how pitiful she sounded, or even if Tong Yao pleaded for her, she was determined not to take her in.
After ending the call, Song Qiao glanced at Lu Mingxuan and said, "Let's not go to the orphanage. Let's go to the police station. Zhao Xiaoya is there."
"Fine!"
Lu Mingxuan turned the car around and drove towards the police station.
After the police ended the call, Zhao Xiaoya turned the tables and accused Song Qiao of abducting Jiang Xiaoran in front of the police.
“Zhao Xiaoya, you need to provide evidence for what you’re saying. This is a police station, and giving false testimony is illegal.”
