Chapter 445 - Things Have Changed
Qiao Mei deliberately held on to Xia He and said in surprise, “Ah! So much money! What does brother-in-law’s mother do? She’s so rich.”
“What else can she do? His mother just stays at home,” Xia He said.
“Then how does she have so much money?” Qiao Mei asked.
Xia He looked at Kong Lu mockingly and said, “She has a good son. He hands over all the money he earns to his mother. I have never even seen his salary before. How can his mother not be rich?”
Kong Lu stood there awkwardly as he listened to Qiao Mei and Xia He taking turns to criticize him.
“Then what about the 2,000 dollars, brother-in-law? Aunt is still waiting to watch television,” Qiao Mei asked Kong Lu.
“My mother’s money… just take it as what I have given her for her living expenses. As for the 2,000 dollars, don’t be anxious. I’ll borrow some money from friends in the next two days,” Kong Lu said with his head down.
“Alright, then I thank brother-in-law on behalf of Aunt. Otherwise, she would have to wait for a long time. Since brother-in-law is so straightforward, Aunt will definitely be very happy,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.
Kong Lu clenched his fists tightly. The papers in his hand were so crumpled that some of them even fell to the ground and got blown away by the wind.
Xia He pulled Qiao Mei along and prepared to leave, not wanting to waste her breath on him.
“Xia He, wait! I… I want to talk to you!” Kong Lu reached out to stop the two of them.
“What else do I have to say to you? I’ve said everything I need to say. There’s nothing more between us,” Xia He said as she looked at Kong Lu coldly.
Kong Lu walked forward anxiously and spread his arms to block Qiao Mei and Xia He. Before he could speak, he was interrupted by the person behind him.
“Oh, isn’t this Qiao Mei? Why are you seducing another man once Xia Zhe is not by your side? You’re really cheap! Why would Xia Zhe choose someone like you!” Qian’e stood behind Kong Lu and pointed at them.
“Who are you!” Xia He looked unhappily at the stranger in front of her.
Xia Zhe usually did not speak harshly to Qiao Mei, and his parents also never reprimanded Qiao Mei before.?Where did this wild cat come from, and how dare she behave so atrociously in front of her?
Qian’e did not know that the person in front of her was Xia Zhe’s elder sister, Xia He. Although they had met before when they were young, it had been more than 10 years and they both looked different now
“None of your business! If you’re with someone like Qiao Mei, you must be like her too! When people say birds of a feather flock together, they’re talking about people like the both of you!” Qian’e put her hands on her hips and berated them.
Kong Lu looked at both parties, feeling at a loss. He did not do anything even though Xia He was being bullied.
“Didn’t you hear what this woman said about Qiao Mei and me?” Xia He looked at Kong Lu in disappointment.
Kong Lu did not know how to explain himself. He stammered, “Um… you’re all women… It’s… not good for me to bully a woman, right?”
Xia He stared at Kong Lu. How could she have been blind enough to fall for such a coward who bullied the weak and feared the strong, but yet always acted like a bully in private?
“Elder sister, let’s go. Don’t get caught up with her nonsense.” Qiao Mei pulled Xia He in the opposite direction.
Qian’e hurriedly rushed forward and shouted, “The adulterous couple still want to leave after I caught you! Don’t even think about going anywhere today! Let everyone see your true colors!”
The people around them were quickly attracted by this farce, and more and more onlookers gathered around.
“Everyone, come and take a look! This shameless woman is seducing another man while her husband is not around! Everyone, come and take a look!” Qian’e shouted with all her might.
While Qian’e was shouting, Xia He looked at Qiao Mei and whispered, “Who is this person? When did you provoke a lunatic?”
Qiao Mei said helplessly, “This is the person from Aunt’s complex. Her name is Qian’e.”
Qian’e? How could it be her?
Xia He looked at the weathered woman in front of her in disbelief. She looked to be in her 30s and people would even believe that she was around the same age as Aunt.
Although they had not seen each other for so many years, she had heard from Aunt about what happened to Qian’e. Aunt said that Qian’e became pregnant before getting married and the two families discussed the matter of marriage. Not long after, Qian’e found out that the man was having an affair. In the end, Qian’e had a miscarriage and even had to have her uterus removed. After that, the man broke off the engagement.
Things had really changed a lot. The Qian’e now was so different from the younger her.
