Chapter 2481: Chapter 2481

She glanced at Jiaojiao several times with the corner of her eye, and only when she saw nothing unusual did she breathe a sigh of relief.

Before Yang Xiaona returned, Jiaojiao chatted with Yang Xiaodi for a while. She learned from Yang Xiaona that Yang Xiaodi is currently in her second year of high school and will advance to third-year next year, and her grades are quite good, so she intentionally steered the conversation toward this topic.

"Xiaodi, what major do you want to pursue in the future? Would you like to study in Beidu? I’m familiar with it here. I can introduce you to some things." After Jiaojiao washed two apples, she handed one to Yang Xiaodi.

Yang Xiaodi took it, looked at Jiaojiao, and seeing her eat it, she only then took a careful and cherished bite.

However, she didn’t answer Jiaojiao’s question directly, only vaguely saying, "I don’t know right now. I’ll see in the future..."

As she spoke, she clearly lacked confidence, as if she was deliberately hiding something.

Jiaojiao lowered her eyelids. She had actually guessed when she found out that Yang Xiaodi had miscarried three times in the past six months. She likely had dropped out of school without Yang Xiaona knowing, and she asked this question merely to confirm it.

After confirming, she didn’t linger on the topic further and changed the subject.

Yang Xiaodi was clearly relieved to see her change the subject.

Yang Xiaodi ate too much; she fell asleep without finishing an apple. Jiaojiao picked up the apple she was reluctant to let go of even in her sleep, put it on the table, got up to cover her with a blanket, and then gently closed the hospital room door as she walked out.

As soon as she closed the door, she saw Yang Xiaona standing at the doorway of the hospital room, her face full of pain, evidently having heard the conversation just now.

Like Jiaojiao, she also guessed a certain possibility.

She motioned her toward outside, then took her hand and walked out. Only outside in the hospital corridor did Jiaojiao say, "Xiaona, why don’t you let Brother Chi go directly to bring your other sister here? The company’s house is renovated; they can stay there first. As for studying, Xiaodi has good grades. She just needs to take the entrance exam here. Your younger sister can attend middle school; many schools in Beidu accept students. These shouldn’t be issues."

"I know." Yang Xiaona had cried so much today that her tears were nearly dried up, "I just regret it. I knew what kind of people they were, but I still..."

Yang Xiaona truly regretted it.

Knowing what kind of people her parents were, after earning money, she never showed a hint of it. Every time she went back, she dressed very simply.

As a model, her parents naturally didn’t know about the happenings in the fashion circle, let alone how much she earned.

Every time she went back, she only provided just enough for their living expenses. As for the tuition fees for her two younger sisters, she found various ways to pay them directly to the school, bypassing her parents’ hands.

But she didn’t expect that even so, Yang Xiaodi still dropped out.

Dropping out was one thing, but her body was also worn out to this extent.

Some things Yang Xiaona didn’t ask Yang Xiaodi but guessed the general situation, because those things were supposed to happen to her back in the day. But at that time, she had the Ruan Family to pull her up and kept her from descending into hell.

She thought that now that she could earn money, and provided living expenses for her family periodically so they weren’t struggling to the point of not having enough to eat, her parents, even if they didn’t care for her sisters as much as they did for their brother, wouldn’t treat them the same way they treated her.
