Qiao Mei looked at Xia Wan in shock. She had never encountered such a storyline even in television dramas. She did not expect Gao Long to be such a devoted man even though he looked so cold!

“If you don’t approve of the relationship, I’ll make it clear to him now! In my heart, you and my family are the most important people to me!” Xia Wan said in a panic.

No matter how much she loved Gao Long, she would not go against Qiao Mei or her own family members. If not for Qiao Mei’s help, she would still be living in an abyss full of suffering! She was thankful to Qiao Mei for allowing Xia Nian to have such a good life and a good future, and also for her to be able to find new hope and live her own life!

“Why won’t I approve! I’m just a little surprised. It’s just that the uncle in front of me now is different from the person I remember,” Qiao Mei said.

Xia Wan blushed and said, “Yes… not quite the same. At first, I thought that he was making fun of me, but later on, I gradually understood that he’s cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He just doesn’t like to reveal his thoughts.”

“Yo, yo, yo! I don’t expect you to blush!” Qiao Mei leaned on Xia Wan and said with a laugh.

“You only know how to laugh at me! I haven’t seen Xia Fan and the other two children in a long time. These three children have grown up a lot. Time really flies,” Xia Wan lamented.

“That’s right! That’s why we must seize the moment and cherish the people who are with us,” Qiao Mei said meaningfully.

“But I’m scared…” Xia Wan said hesitantly.

Qiao Mei patted Xia Wan’s hand and said, “Don’t worry, you have me. I can handle everything at home! Don’t you know how important I am to Grandfather? As long as Grandfather agrees, Second Aunt-in-law won’t have any objections. Besides, my uncle is such a dependable man. Since Second Aunt-in-law has a discerning eye, she will definitely approve!”

“Thank you,” Xia Wan said.

“We’re a family. There’s no need to say such things,” Qiao Mei said blissfully.

At night, everyone gathered together to celebrate. The children continued to be taken care of by Auntie Wang and the rest. Qiao Mei was so happy that she drank a little too much and went back to the bedroom in a daze to sleep it off. She only woke up in the afternoon the next day.

Xia Wan had already prepared a light meal for Qiao Mei and was waiting for her. Qiao Mei had a hangover and a headache. She massaged her temples and slowly walked downstairs.

“You’re awake! Come and eat! You don’t seem to have tasted my cooking before!” Xia Wan said as she sat at the dining table.

Qiao Mei quickly walked to the dining table and sat down. After taking the first bite, she said happily, “It’s so delicious! I don’t expect you to cook so well! My uncle is really lucky!”

“If you like it, then eat more!” Xia Wan said.

Before Xia Wan came to Country M, Xia Wen had briefed her about Xia Zhe. After all, Qiao Mei’s farm had some business dealings with Xia Zhe. In addition, his business was getting bigger and bigger and he was already second to none in Country M. Naturally, he appeared in the newspapers at times. Xia Wen was worried that Xia Wan would be surprised when she saw that.

“Has he contacted you?” Qiao Mei asked casually.

Xia Wan gasped and asked nervously, “Who?”

“Who else? I mean… Fang Chen,” Qiao Mei said.

“No, he hasn’t. I guess he’s been busy recently,” Xia Wan said vaguely.

Qiao Mei put down her bowl and chopsticks and asked sternly, “Really? Elder Cousin, don’t lie to me. Did something happen to him?”

“No! No! He’s really very busy! He’s in a very important meeting! He’s very caught up at the moment,” Xia Wan said.

Gao Long, who was reading the newspaper at the side, immediately put away the newspaper in his hand. Qiao Mei slowly walked to Gao Long and asked, “Uncle, do you know anything about this?”

“Do you really have to go to this extent for that man?” Gao Long asked with a slight frown.

Only Gao Lin and Gao Ming knew that Fang Chen was Xia Zhe. Gao Long, who had always been in Country M, did not know about this. He still thought that Fang Chen was just Qiao Mei’s lover.

“I want to know what’s happening with him,” Qiao Mei said firmly.

“Some time ago, he killed many people so as to secure his position. Many triads were destroyed because of this. I originally thought that he’s just a ruthless businessman, but I certainly don’t expect him to be able to kill people without batting an eyelid. Don’t be so stubborn anymore. With your current status, you can find any man you want, so why must you like him?” Gao Long said with a little anger.

“Uncle, I really want to know what happened to him. Where is he?” Qiao Mei asked.

Xia Wan walked over slowly from the bookshelf with the newspaper and handed it to Qiao Mei. “Now that things have come to this, you should take a look. You’ll find out about this sooner or later anyway, but I believe that Fang Chen did not do it on purpose. There must be some misunderstanding involved. It’s just that I haven’t been able to get through his phone and I can’t verify if this matter is true or not.”
