Xu Lan was so shocked that she hurriedly shouted, “Pfft, pfft, pfft! How can you say such things! Don’t talk about death! It’s inauspicious!”

“Mother, I need to let Auntie Zhou know how serious I am. I can’t bear to let Auntie Zhou misunderstand me like this,” Qiao Mei said haltingly.

With Qiao Mei’s good looks, she looked particularly pitiful when she put on such an aggrieved expression.

Xia You could not stand it anymore and muttered softly, “It’s not Qiao Mei’s fault to begin with. Why will a good girl like Qiao Mei do such a thing? Auntie Zhou is still behaving so aggressively. Is she trying to force her into a corner?”

Zhou Luo glared fiercely at Xia You, but Xia You did not back down and simply glared back. Xia Wan hurriedly held on to Xia You to calm her down and stop her from speaking up again. Otherwise, Xia You would only make the situation even more chaotic.

“Alright, now that everyone knows what actually happened, let’s eat. Sister Zhou, if you’re still unsure, you can go and ask Xia Xiu. You also know that this sister-in-law of mine is the most impartial person in this family. You should be able to believe what she says,” Xu Lan said.

Zhou Luo sat back down slowly and decided to put this matter aside for now. She must investigate it carefully and not let anyone fool her. She did not intend to blindly believe in what she heard, even if Xia Xiu said the same thing. She must investigate it herself! What if the Xia family was spouting nonsense to stop her from taking any action!

Could her biological sister have lied to her? Impossible! They were a family!

All the people around the dining table finished the delicious food in front of them in silence. Once the meal ended, they would have to face the issue of their accommodation. Xu Lan had not said anything. Based on the usual practice, the family members of the Xia family’s second son would stay at Xu Lan’s place and the family members of the Xia family’s third son would stay at Xia Jun’s place. This was enough of an indication of the relationship between the three families.

Zhou Luo always felt that Liu Fen was like a slave to the family of the Xia family’s eldest son. She had actually gotten it wrong. Liu Fen would be more than happy to stay at Xu Lan’s place forever! It was a nice and big house and she had someone to talk to every day. Moreover, there was a helper to do all the housework, so she did not have to do anything. Xu Lan would also always give her a share of whatever good stuff she had.

Which family’s “slave” could receive such treatment? If there was really such a thing, everyone would be happy to be slaves!

“Hmph, let’s go!” Zhou Luo left Xu Lan’s place arrogantly with the three children of the Xia family’s third son. After they left, Xia You immediately came up to Qiao Mei.

“Wow… are these eyelashes real? How can a person have such long eyelashes! And this skin, you don’t have any spots at all! How exactly do you take care of your skin! And your figure! It’s such a pity that you’re not a model! Goodness… Xia Zhe, where did you find such a wife!” Xia You lamented.

Liu Fen hurriedly pulled Xia You back and said to Qiao Mei in embarra.s.sment, “Please don’t take it to heart. This child of mine is just too talkative. She’s already so grown up but she can’t seem to change this habit.”

“I don’t think so! I like this elder sister’s personality very much. I will be more than happy if she wants to chat with me!” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Xia You was so touched that she felt like crying. Other than her siblings, this was the first person in the Xia family who did not find her bothersome! She decided that she must become good friends with Qiao Mei!

She suddenly thought of something and pulled Xia Zhe aside, ignoring everyone’s puzzled gazes, and asked softly, “Um… let me ask you, did you do something beastly to Qiao Mei?”

“Absolutely not! I only want to dote on her. Why would I do anything bad to her? Elder sister, what are you thinking about,” Xia Zhe said helplessly.

“Then how did you find such a nice girl? And how long has she known you before she became pregnant? Are you sure you didn’t make her pregnant so that you can marry her? If you really did that, I’ll break your legs right now!” Xia You raised her fist and said fiercely.

For a moment, Xia Zhe did not know what to tell Xia You. Should he tell her that Qiao Mei was actually the one who plotted for a long time and had ulterior motives towards him, and that it was Qiao Mei who got him drunk and then slept with him? That… that was something he could never say out loud!

He was a grown man, yet a woman had forced herself on him. If word got out, he would be utterly embarra.s.sed!

“Of course not… Qiao Mei and I were already betrothed when we were young. Qiao Mei’s grandfather is the person who saved our grandfather in the past,” Xia Zhe explained.
