“h.e.l.lo to all of you. You’re all standing outside on such a hot day. Thank you for doing that,” Qiao Mei said.

“Qiao Mei, you’ve done such a good deed to contribute to the country’s education system. I have no problem even if I have to stand at the door for three days and three nights! Come, let’s go in and have a chat! The meeting room is ready for use!” Cao Ping said.

Qiao Mei glanced at Meng Yuan, who was standing beside Cao Ping. He smiled and said, “Qiao Mei, this way please.”

Qiao Mei immediately understood what Meng Yuan meant. In the Education Bureau, only the bureau director knew about Meng Yuan’s relationship with the Xia family. No one else knew about it. Furthermore, Meng Yuan had gotten the job in the Education Bureau on his own merit and this matter had nothing to do with the Xia family.

Meng Yuan did not want everyone to think that he was working in the Education Bureau because of his relationship with the Xia family, nor did he want people to disregard his work performance because they thought that he had made use of his connections.

Given that Qiao Mei already had the list of requirements from Meng Yuan, the contract was signed very quickly. Qiao Mei and Xia You had decided to name the school Bright Academy. It was their wish that every child who came to study at Bright Academy would have a bright future.

Cao Ping and Qiao Mei had a long discussion about the future plans for the school as well as how it would be managed. Before Qiao Mei left, she walked past the staff office and spotted Meng Yuan being surrounded by many girls. They did not look like they were talking about work but more like having a casual conversation. Meng Yuan looked awkward to be in their presence but did not know how to reject them.

Qiao Mei smiled and left. He was a handsome young man and it was normal for those girls to like him.

She brought gifts for the baby to Xia He’s house. She had made a lot of clothes for Xia Hui and also bought many new toys, including a pram.

“How much money did you spend on these? You can just give us your three children’s old clothes and toys,” Xia He said with heartache.

“Xia He, your mindset has changed so fast. Back when I was pregnant, who was the one who told me that everything my children used must be new? Even when we were in Country M, you always bought the latest items for the children. Why are you so thrifty when it comes to your own child?” Qiao Mei questioned.

Xia He sighed and said, “It’s only after I have a child that I realize children grow too fast. The clothes I bought last week already cannot fit her this week. No matter how rich I am, I can’t be so wasteful. Your Xia Yue is wearing Xia Fan’s old clothes, so this is a form of recycling.”

“Enough already. I’m the baby’s aunt-in-law. Her aunt-in-law has plenty of money to spend on her!” Qiao Mei said.

“It’s almost the baby’s one-month celebration soon. What have you prepared for our Hui Hui?” Xia He asked curiously.

Qiao Mei took out three wooden boxes from her bag and placed them in front of Xia He. “Make a guess.”

“Wooden boxes like these definitely contain jade! Don’t tell me you’re giving my child a pair of jade bangles? How can a little baby wear such big bangles on her small wrist?” Xia He said.

“You’re wrong. Only the big wooden box is for the baby. The other two are for you,” Qiao Mei said as she knocked on the wooden boxes.

Qiao Mei opened the biggest box. Inside was a golden choker encrusted with 10 different types of gems of various sizes, which symbolized perfection. The entire choker was carved in an ancient style. Qiao Mei had specially found an old master to make it and had waited two years to receive the final product!

“I wasn’t even pregnant at that time! Why did you already start preparations then?” Xia He asked in shock.

“I’m just worried that I won’t be able to make it in time if I wait until after you get pregnant. I know how nice you are to me. I’ve been planning it since the day of your wedding, but I just didn’t tell you,” Qiao Mei lamented.

Back when she had to go to Country M, if Xia He did not volunteer to go with her, the Xia family would never have allowed her to go to such a far and dangerous place with the children. Xia He had lived apart from Deng Fan for two years for her sake. Furthermore, in Country M, Xia He had risked her life to protect Qiao Mei and the children.

Qiao Mei had kept these memories close to her heart. Therefore, should anything happen to Xia He, she would help Xia He through any difficulties, even if it meant going through h.e.l.l and high water.

“Don’t say such touching words. I don’t want to cry,” Xia He said.

“Take a look at these two items. This is the set of pigeon-blood ruby jewelry that you’ve always liked. I know you took a fancy to it when you went to my storeroom the last time. I noticed the way you looked at it. As for this ” Qiao Mei picked up the wooden box and handed it to Xia He. “Open it yourself.”

Xia He opened the wooden box expectantly. Inside was a pair of jade tigers. The workmanship was exquisite and the history of this pair could be traced back thousands of years.
