Xia Yuan frowned and said, “She’s one of my in-laws.”

“So what if she’s your in-law? Isn’t your sister-in-law just taking care of the children at home like a nanny?” the woman said disdainfully. Yun Lan originally had her own career, but after she got pregnant, her health was not as good as before. She had been recuperating at home during this period of time and the baby was taken care of by a nanny.

“Hello, this is our first time meeting each other. My name is Qiao Mei,” Qiao Mei said confidently as she stood at the door.

“Qiao Mei? You  you’re actually that Qiao Mei! You’re not Yun Lan!” the woman said in surprise.

Although Qiao Mei was not as famous as the Xia family members, anyone who had studied in the capital would have heard of her. Now that Qiao Mei had returned from studying abroad and started a biological company, which person was not envious of her?

Qiao Mei walked into the room and sat down on the sofa. The woman stared at Qiao Mei for a long time before picking up the documents on the table and leaving with her head held high. Xia Yuan sighed for a long time.

“Where does this goddess come from? Why do you have so much luck with women when you only just joined?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

“Third Cousin-in-law, don’t tease me. This woman has a grand background. Even if Eldest Cousin wants to help me, he won’t be able to do anything about it. Speaking of which, her story is similar to yours,” Xia Yuan said helplessly.

“What do you mean?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

“Her father and my father were comrades-in-arms. Back when my father was in the highlands, it was her father who saved my father at the most critical moment. At that time, the two of them agreed to become in-laws but did not contact each other for a long time. Some time back, their family came back to the capital to look for us and this past issue resurfaced again,” Xia Yuan said.

“They only have one daughter and you’re the only one in your family who isn’t married yet, so the responsibility of this promised marriage has fallen on you?” Qiao Mei said.

“Sigh  but I don’t like her at all,” Xia Yuan said.

“That girl is quite good-looking though. She’s tall and beautiful,” Qiao Mei asked.

“Come on! I don’t like that snooty look of hers! Do you want our family to have another Third Aunt-in-law?” Xia Yuan said disdainfully.

Qiao Mei quickly gave Xia Yuan a look to stop him from saying more. She said meaningfully, “No matter how bad Third Aunt-in-law is, that’s still a matter for the older generation to handle. Let’s not say too much lest we get into trouble for it. You’re working in the government sector now, so you have to know what to say and what not to say. Do you understand?”

“I understand.” Xia Yuan nodded obediently. In his eyes, Qiao Mei was his elder, like Xia Wen and the other older cousins. Everything she said was for his own good and he would take note of it.

Qiao Mei put down the strawberries on Xia Yuan’s table and told him to go to her house for dinner with the rest of his family when they had some free time. Just as she was about to leave, Xia Yuan stopped her. He put his palms together and begged Qiao Mei, saying, “Third Cousin-in-law! Please save me! I really don’t want to deal with that woman anymore! I can’t even finish my work every day, so where do I find the time to deal with her!”

“Are you sure you don’t like her?” Qiao Mei asked.

“Really! I swear! I will never be with her! Besides  Besides, I already have someone I like ” Xia Yuan said shyly.

“When did this happen! Does Second Aunt-in-law know? Which family is she from?” Qiao Mei asked excitedly.

“She’s a classmate of mine from university. She works at the bank now and we haven’t confirmed our relationship yet,” Xia Yuan whispered.

“If you really like her, then quickly get together with her and woo her openly. As for this woman here  let me help you think of a way,” Qiao Mei said.

The truth was that Qiao Mei actually had no issues with this woman’s methods. After all, she had done even more to Xia Zhe back then! However, the matter between her and Xia Zhe was done behind closed doors and only the two of them knew about it. At that time, Qiao Mei had no intention of coercing Xia Zhe at all.

However, this woman purposely left the door open and behaved intimately towards Xia Yuan in full view of everyone. Many people in the office had already started to gossip about the two of them. There were even some people who thought that the two of them were already dating.

“Thank you, Third Cousin-in-law!” Xia Yuan said happily.

“Alright, you work hard. Remember to bring Second Aunt-in-law and the rest for dinner at my place when you’re free.” After saying that, Qiao Mei drove home. Before she left, she also gave the security guard at the main door a watermelon. She wanted to leave an impression so that he would open the door for her the next time she came.
