After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

Chapter 1439 Let's Have a Meal Together

"Is that so? I can hear everything clearly inside just now. It's obvious that the two of you are not working and are gossiping in the corridor. It even seems that you're gossiping about me. Do you need me to have a chat with your department head?" Xia He asked.

"No need! No need! We'll go back to work immediately and definitely won't chit chat anymore!" Cui Fen said fearfully.

"Then in the future, when I'm not around, you must still remember to work diligently. If I find out that you people bully Mo Zhu, then don't blame me for taking action!" Xia He threatened.

"We understand!" Cui Fen hurriedly grabbed the other colleague and fled. As she left, she even almost lost her shoes!

Mo Zhu kept looking at Xia He in silence. She knew that Xia He was helping her, but why would Xia He help her for no reason? Could it be that it was inconvenient for Director Xia to resolve the issue, so he asked Xia He to come out and help?

After Xia He chased away those gossipy people, she finally had the chance to size up Mo Zhu. This person looked a little different from what she had imagined. She thought that someone with a name as cultured as "Mo Zhu" would be gentle and mild-mannered and appear more bookish.

"You don't have to be afraid of them in the future! If anyone bullies you again, come and look for me! I'll definitely help you out!" Xia He smiled brightly, looking like the dazzling morning sun that had just risen. Mo Zhu really liked people with this type of personality.

"How do you know my name?" Mo Zhu asked.

This was the first time she and Xia He had met. Logically speaking, Xia He should not know her name. Xia He did not know Cui Fen's name earlier! Therefore, Xia Wen must have mentioned her name to Xia He before.

"Oh… Director Xia mentioned you once," Xia He said as she scratched her head.

"Director Xia? What did he say to you?" Mo Zhu said as she stared at Xia He.

"He just mentioned it in passing, that a capable girl named Mo Zhu had joined his department and that she has a nice name. That's all." Xia He honestly repeated what Xia Wen had said.

Mo Zhu covered her mouth and chuckled. This was the first time she had seen such a frank person!

"Then aren't you afraid of them? What if they take revenge on you behind your back?" Mo Zhu asked worriedly.

"I'm not from your workplace unit, so of course I'm not afraid of them coming to find trouble with me. Don't worry. So what if they come to find trouble with me? I won't let them have an easy time!" Xia He said.

"Alright, then I feel more at ease." Mo Zhu heaved a sigh of relief and then asked, "I still don't know your name. It's almost time to get off work. Let me treat you to a meal. There's a very good restaurant nearby."

"My name is Xia He," Xia He said truthfully.

"Xia… your surname is also Xia, so you're Director Xia's…" Mo Zhu said carefully.

"Oh, oh! I forgot to tell you that I'm Xia Wen's younger sister. It must be very difficult for you to work under a blockhead like my eldest brother," Xia He said as she looked at Mo Zhu with some heartache. She did not look hypocritical when she said this, but more like she was revealing her true feelings.

"No, it's not. I learn a lot from working with Director Xia," Mo Zhu said seriously.

"Don't worry! I won't say anything to my brother! You can just speak truthfully. Is my brother really a nice person? I think that he's very rigid. I suffered a lot when I had to report to him previously!" Whenever Xia He thought of the past, she wanted to press Xia Wen to the ground and beat him up.

"Hahahaha, Director Xia is indeed a little stern, but he's serious about his work and I can understand why he behaves like this. Why don't we go for dinner tonight? Take it that I'm thanking you for helping me out." Mo Zhu's sincere expression made Xia He feel a little tempted, but they still had to go to Qiao Mei's place for dinner tonight. She wondered how she could reject the invitation tactfully…

Xia He suddenly had an idea and said, "Oh! Then come with me tonight! I'll bring you somewhere to eat delicious food!"

Just like that, Xia He forgot why she had come to look for Xia Wen in the first place. She grabbed hold of Xia Wen and Mo Zhu and they headed to Qiao Mei's house together.

"Qiao Mei~ Where are you~" Xia He shouted excitedly.

"Why are you so happy? Did something happen?" Qiao Mei was slightly stunned when she saw an unfamiliar face. Then she smiled and asked, "Who is this? Why haven't I met this person before?"
