Qiao Nan believed there is no free meal in the world. Although Qiao Zijin was her biological sister, the things she gave were more like traps than freebies.
"Aren't they just a few buns? Dad, Nan Nan and you were exaggerating." Qiao Zijin's eyes were elusive. She nearly let the cat out of the bag.
In actual fact, treating Qiao Dongliang and Qiao Nan to buns was a trick that Qiao Zijin had to play in the absence of better solutions.
According to the original plan, Qiao Zijin was to bring Qiao Dongliang to a further place before she got Qiao Nan to come over. That way, she could buy more time for Ding Jiayi to prevent the matter from being exposed too early.
Qiao Zijin's act to bring Qiao Dongliang out for a stroll was part of the plan, but Qiao Dongliang's injury was real.
Hence, they did not walk that far before Qiao Dongliang started to feel overwhelmed and was unable to move further.
