CHAPTER 265: CHAPTER 265

Because the complainant disappeared, Qiao Guangzong was released after three days. He hated Qian Mentao even more and went to the Qian Family to get the house back. But the Qian Family wasn’t easy to deal with; he ended up getting into a fight with his brother-in-law and got his head broken.

When Qiao Yaozu received the call from the hospital, he was negotiating an important project and sent an assistant to the hospital.

Upon arriving at the hospital, the assistant was asked to pay various fees and had to call the boss. Qiao Yaozu, being generous, told the assistant to pay his fees.

Meanwhile, Li Xiaomei received another call from that mysterious person.

"Who exactly are you?" Li Xiaomei had been caring for Qiao Guangzong at the hospital these past two days. Hearing that the woman had disappeared, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You don’t need to know who I am; you just need to know that I’ll help you." Qiao Qiqi used a voice changer, so Li Xiaomei couldn’t recognize her voice.

"Now that I can be with him, how else can you help me?" Li Xiaomei frowned.

"What use do you have for a worthless pauper?"

"What do you mean? How could Guangzong be a pauper? Besides, even if he has no money, his brother does."

Though Li Xiaomei said these words, doubt crept into her mind. Does Qiao Guangzong really have no money? Recently, he’s been a bit tight on cash. He said he’s working on a big project and will earn big once he gets investors.

But the fact is, he can’t even pay the hospital fees now, and he hasn’t contributed to her family for a while. She’s been using the money she secretly saved.

"Ha, they’ve been kicked out. Surely you don’t naively think his brother’s money is his? Let me be honest, I do have a grudge against Qiao Guangzong, but I have no interest in harming you. If you want to stay in this pit, that’s up to you."

The person hung up, and Li Xiaomei felt a wave of panic, but she calmed down quickly. She had been with Qiao Guangzong since she was twenty, giving him her best years, but she wasn’t with him to suffer hardship! She was with him for the money, to enjoy life!

If what that person said is true, and he really has no money left, then there’s no way she could stay with him!

Li Xiaomei returned to the ward just as Qiao Guangzong woke up. Feeling hungry, he said, "Go buy me something to eat. I want grilled pork belly and a few abalones."

"Alright, I’ll go buy them. Guangzong, I’m a bit tight on money right now too. You haven’t given my family money for two months. Maybe you could give me some first?" Li Xiaomei used to get fifty thousand from him each month— not a lot, but enough. He often gave her luxury gifts too.

"My money is in the card, can’t give it now."

"Where’s the card? I can go get it; it’s no trouble." Li Xiaomei, after hearing the mysterious caller, decided she must find out if this man still has money or not.

"Why do you talk so much? Wasn’t the money I gave before enough? So much fuss over buying a meal. Do I look like I’m short on money? The Qiao Family runs such a big company, do you think it’ll go bankrupt? I’ll give it to you when I go back." Qiao Guangzong yelled angrily, and felt even dizzier after shouting.

Li Xiaomei didn’t say more and got up to leave. Outside the ward, her expression turned very grim, as she was now certain— Qiao Guangzong really had no money!
