Qiao Mei thought for a moment and said to Xia Wen, “Eldest Brother, Liang Shu is so pitiful to be left behind in the capital. Why don’t we send her to be with her children?”

“Sure.” Xia Wen immediately contacted the medical staff and told them to escort Liang Shu to that remote town. The town had a small population and everyone knew one another. If Liang Guo and Liang Lan did not take care of Liang Shu, it would not be too good for their reputations.

Qiao Mei sat at home and started to imagine what Liang Guo and Liang Lan would have to go through in the future. Just thinking about it made her feel great! It was a fantastic resolution to the issue.

“Eldest Brother, you must keep tabs on Shi Rui. If she’s planning something, you won’t be able to guard against her!” Qiao Mei reminded him.

“Yes, I’ll remember that. Seeing what Shao Yin did to Xia Xing, I will definitely be on my guard. 1 won’t do anything to let MO Zhu down,” Xia Wen said.

It had been some time since Qiao Mei came back. It was time for her to go to Capital University to settle the graduation procedure. Since she had studied abroad as an exchange student, she was in a different scheme from the rest of the students who never left the country. The others had to study for four years, but Qiao Mei only needed two years.

The entire batch of exchange students had gone to different schools overseas, so there was no requirement for them to settle the graduation procedure together. There were a few students who were not able to persevere after just one month overseas and had then requested to return to the capital. There were not many students like Qiao Mei, who managed to complete their studies overseas.

Qiao Mei had not seen Wu Duo and the others for a long time. She did not know if they had managed to fulfill their promise to her back then. According to their plan, by the time it was Qiao Mei’s second year in Country M, they should have gotten the spots to study overseas.

After returning to school, Qiao Mei asked around and found out that none of the three had gone overseas to study. They were still a little lacking in their knowledge, but if they had a chance to try again this year, they would probably be able to pass the test.

Qiao Mei had arranged to have a meal with them at cafeteria A, but unexpectedly, only Wang Wei and Li Xue showed up.

“Eh? Where’s Wu Duo? He’s always very enthusiastic about food. Why isn’t he here today!” Qiao Mei said with a laugh.

Wang Wei and Li Xue had strange expressions on their faces. They did not know how to tell Qiao Mei about what happened back then. The truth was that Wu Duo had already been expelled from school!

“He… he’s not in school anymore,” Li Xue said hesitantly.

“Not in school anymore? Where else can he be? Is he sick?” Qiao Mei asked.

“Don’t be too agitated after hearing the news. We’ll tell you the story slowly,” Wang Wei said by way of comfort.

Qiao Mei immediately became serious. She looked at Wang Wei calmly and said, “What happened?”

“Wu Duo was expelled from the school two months after you left. The reason was because… because he had an affair with a married woman. Someone found out about it and came to confront him. The school expelled Wu Duo for the sake of their reputation,” Li Xue said.

“What? An affair with a married woman? Are you mistaken?” Qiao Mei asked Li Xue in shock.

If Wu Duo had that kind of ulterior motive, he would have made a move on Qiao Mei when they were in high school. Qiao Mei did not believe that there was any married woman in this world who was more beautiful than her. Moreover, Wu Duo was a decent person. He was upright and it was impossible for him to do such an underhanded thing.

“There’s no mistake. There are even witnesses. Those people saw it all,” Wang Wei said.

“Who’s that woman?” Qiao Mei asked.

“Sigh… You won’t believe me even if I tell you. That woman is Cui Hua!” Li Xue said furiously.

“That’s even more impossible!” Qiao Mei immediately realized that Wu Duo had been plotted against. If a sinister person like Xie Jing ganged up with Cui Hua, it would be easy for the two of them to plot against Wu Duo.

After Qiao Mei calmed down, she asked, “Where is Wu Duo now?”

“This matter has blown up so much that he can’t even go home, He lives in a village in the city now and basically doesn’t leave his house. We’ve tried to talk to him over the past two years, but he refused to come out. We can only leave the things we bring for him outside the door and then we have to go off. The good thing is that he will still open the door and accept our gifts,” Li Xue said.

“Let’s eat first. After we’re done, let’s go and visit him,” Qiao Mei said.

The three of them finished their meal in silence, Qiao Mei analyzed what Li Xue and Wang Wei had just told her over and over again in her mind. Xie Jing and Cui Hua had gone too far. Qiao Mei should have known that Xie Jing would not let Wu Duo off so easily..
