Chapter 140: Other Than Your Father, There’s Someone Else Who Cares About You
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qin Jizhang was finally caught. Because the evidence was conclusive, he was sentenced to death very quickly!
Qin Rou—who had been lying low all this while—finally appeared…
Jian Dan had already been discharged from the hospital for many days, but Chu Liyuan still did not allow her to go out until she had fully recovered.
Hence, she had been cooped up at home every day. Fortunately, Li Garden had a huge garden, unlike the hospital where she could only stay in the ward.
Jian Dan had Uncle Zhang install a swing set on one of the big trees in the backyard.
She was swinging back and forth on the swing set…
Just as Jian Dan was enjoying herself on the swing set, her cell phone suddenly rang…
“h.e.l.lo!”
“h.e.l.lo, are you Jian Dan?”
An unfamiliar male voice emanated from the other end of the call.
“I am! Who are you?”
Jian Dan continued with swinging on the swing set even as she answered the call.
“I’m calling from the police station. There’s a suicide attempt in progress and the person threatening to jump off the building wants to see you. I wonder if you can come over.”
The man briefly explained his purpose in the call.
“What? Suicide? Who wants to commit suicide?”
When Jian Dan heard the word ‘suicide’, she stopped the swing with her feet and asked nervously.
“Qin Rou!”
When Jian Dan heard her name, she was stunned for a moment before frowning slightly.
Qin Rou wanted to commit suicide? She wanted to see her before she died?
Although Jian Dan did not know why Qin Rou wanted to see her, she decided to go nonetheless.
There were two reasons why Jian Dan decided to go. One was that although Qin Rou targeted her… caused trouble for her… and even drugged her… She had never thought of killing Jian Dan. The person who wanted her to die was Mei Xiaolin.
Secondly, it was because of Qin Jizhang. Although he was not a good person, he was definitely a good father. She thought he would definitely not want his daughter to die in such a way.
However, Chu Liyuan did not agree to let her go alone, so she asked Uncle Zhang to accompany her…
Before going up to the rooftop, the police briefed Jian Dan about Qin Ron’s current situation.
It turned out that after that incident, her mother had transferred all available funds from the family and ran away with the money. Her father was executed and E Media closed down. She fell from grace overnight and had nothing.
When Jian Dan rushed to the rooftop, she saw Qin Rou standing barefoot at the edge of the rooftop without shoes…
When Qin Rou saw Jian Dan, she smiled…
“Jian Dan, I’ve lost!”
“I remember that I told you not to provoke me. Otherwise, I will let you know who gets the last laugh.”
Although Jian Dan was here, it did not mean that she could forget what Qin Rou had done to her.
“Hahahahaha!”
Hearing Jian Dan’s words, Qin Rou laughed.
“Jian Dan, do you know? I’m jealous of you. I’m madly jealous of you because you have Zhong Tianhao’s love.
“When I was young, I always liked to follow him around. As I grew older, I realized that my liking for him slowly turned into love.”
“Later, when our parents wanted us to get married, I felt like the happiest person in the world.”
“But he didn’t agree and even started to distance himself from me…”
“He even started dating you after going to college.”
“When I saw the two of you together, I couldn’t control my jealousy. Slowly, this jealousy turned into hatred. I became less and less like myself and became perverse.”
“Maybe you’re right. I’m responsible for what’s become of me. I killed my own father for a man who didn’t love me.”
“In this world, the person who treats me the best is my father, but I caused his death.”
Qin Rou covered her face with her hands and cried…
“Since you know how much your father loves you, do you think he would be happy if he knew that you want to kill yourself now?”
“I miss him so much that I want to go look for him.”
“Your father came to the hospital before he was arrested. I don’t suppose you knew about that?”
“What? My father went to the hospital?”
Qin Rou obviously did not know about this.
“Yes! He came to kill me. He said that he wanted to do one last thing for you before he died.”
“Perhaps he thinks that you can only be happy if I’m dead!”
“Dad!”
Qin Rou cried even harder…
“He may not be a good person, but I have to admit that he was a good father. I don’t think such a father would want his daughter to die just like that.”
“Dad is the only person in the world who truly cares about me. Now that he’s gone, what’s the point of me being in this world?”
“I think there’s someone else in this world who cares about you!”
When Qin Rou heard Jian Dan’s words, she looked up at her…
“Zhong Tianhao!”
