Qiao Mei looked at Xu Ba and sighed. He was really a romantic at heart. If he had been born into another family, he might have had a different ending with Li Gui.
“There’s another solution,” Qiao Mei said.
“What is it?” Xu Ba asked expectantly.
Qiao Mei did not know how to tell Xi Ba. If he viewed it positively, he would see it as leaving his family to live with Li Gui. The two of them could get married first and work on their relationship after that. They would also have more alone time together. However, if he viewed it negatively, it would be like he was marrying into her family! He would be seen as a matrilocal son-in-law! He had to completely cut ties with the Xu family!
“You can move to my mother’s house after you get married,” Qiao Mei said tactfully.
Xu Ba was shocked when he heard this, but he could understand her point. After all, her suggestion was a win-win situation for everyone. However, as a man, he could not accept it.
“I’m just making a casual remark. It’s getting late, you should go back.” After saying that, Qiao Mei turned around and walked into the courtyard. As soon as she walked down the long corridor, she saw Li Gui standing there and looking at the main door.
Although summer nights were not as hot as the daytime, it was still a little stuffy. Every breath of air one took was warm. The back of Li Gui’s floral shirt looked a little damp, so she had probably been standing there for a long time.
Li Gui looked at Qiao Mei and smiled bitterly. She could not help but ask, “Has he left?”
“Yes. He asks me to tell you that he’s sorry,” Qiao Mei said truthfully.
“Every family has their own difficulties. I’ve never blamed him,” Li Gui said.
“So what happens next? Mom, do you still want to be with him?” Qiao Mei asked.
Li Gui shook her head firmly. Ever since she met Old Madam Xu that day, she had made up her mind not to marry Xu Ba. She did not want to live a tough life anymore, nor did she want to suffer at anyone’s hands. She had wasted the first half of her life being stuck inside a house. Now, she wanted to enjoy her life to the fullest and experience everything that she had never experienced before.
Qiao Mei was relieved to know what Li Gui was thinking. She smiled and said, “Let’s ask my mother-in-law to look around and see if there’s any other candidate. This man may not be good enough, but there are other men!”
“No! How can I start dating immediately after a breakup! It doesn’t sound good if word gets out. It’s been very busy at the restaurant recently. I just want to settle down and manage the restaurant properly. We can talk about other things later,” Li Gui said.
“Whatever you say. Oh right! The Li family members have already been sent back home and they probably won’t be able to come to the capital for a while. However, people like them definitely won’t let us off and they will definitely come again! I just want you to be prepared,” Qiao Mei said.
Li Gui nodded. She did not have to worry when Qiao Mei took charge of stuff. Moreover, she no longer had any kinship with the Li family. Back then, when Old Madam Li disregarded her reputation and married her off to Zhang Qian, the mother-daughter relationship between them was already severed.
Summer passed quickly. As the season changed, the family needed new clothes. Xu Lan asked Qiao Mei to go with her to the mall to buy clothes for the entire family. Xu Lan had planned to gather everyone to take a family photo at the next family gathering. The last time they took a family photo was when Wu Min was around.
At that time, all the kids in Xia Wen’s generation were not even born yet! In the blink of an eye, Xu Lan had already become a grandmother! And Xia Jun had also become a great-grandfather. Time and tide waited for no man!
Qiao Mei intended to go to Country M to spend some time with Xia Zhe once the situation at home had stabilized. They had not seen each other for too long and she missed him very much.
“Mother, I want to go and get a suit for Xia Zhe,” Qiao Mei said. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
“Go ahead. I’m not done here yet. I’ll go and look for you later. Don’t leave that place!” Xu Lan reminded her.
“Alright!” After saying that, Qiao Mei walked towards the suit shop that was located opposite. This shop was a century-old brand and some of the Xia family’s formal gowns, suits and cheongsams were made here.
When Qiao Mei reached the door, she saw familiar faces inside. It was Xia Guang and Tang Hui! The two of them were picking out clothes and the atmosphere seemed harmonious. Xia Guang had a blissful smile on his face and the two of them behaved like newlyweds.
She did not want to go in and disturb such a beautiful moment. She did not know when Xia Guang would know what he wanted in life. She looked forward to the day when Xia Guang and Tang Hui got married.
More importantly, if Xia Jun saw Xia Guang in this state, he would feel much more at ease and would not be anxious about Xia Guang anymore.
Qiao Mei left the shop silently and sat down in the public seating area provided by the shopping mall. Not long after she sat down, she saw two people coming from afar. It was Zhou Hua and Shao Yin!
How could it be so coincidental! What a small world! They could even bump into one another here.
