“Don’t worry, Xiao’e will never hurt the child from your family again. I swear to Heaven,” Qian Wang said.
Qiao Mei looked at Qian Wang and felt a little sorry for him.
“What’s the matter?” Qiao Mei walked to the door and asked.
Xia Fang hurriedly pulled Qiao Mei behind her, not giving them a chance to face her directly.
“I’m sorry. I brought Xiao’e here to apologize. We were in the wrong the last time. We’re really sorry and Xiao’e already knows her mistake,” Qian Wang said sincerely.
After saying that, he handed over two bags full of big and fresh fruits. He certainly looked very sincere but there was not a word from Qian’e, the main culprit.
When Qian’e saw Qiao Mei, her originally indifferent attitude turned into a fierce stare, as if she wanted to disassemble and eat up Qiao Mei.
“You shouldn’t be the one apologizing. Whoever made the mistake should be the one apologizing,” Qiao Mei said with a smile while looking at Qian’e.
Qian Wang nudged Qian’e and said, “Hurry up and apologize.”
Qian’e looked at Qiao Mei indifferently. She would rather be killed than to apologize, and she would probably feel better that way as well. The initial deal she had with him was that she only needed to follow him to the house.
She did not expect that it was not enough just to turn up and that she even needed to apologize.
Xia Fang looked at Qian’e who refused to open her mouth. She shook her head helplessly and said to Qian Wang, “Since the two of you haven’t discussed it properly, you should just go back.”
Xia Fang was about to close the door but Qian Wang held on to it and said, “My daughter is very immature. Please don’t mind her. My daughter already knows her mistake. The kids may fool around but we should continue to get along well.”
So this was his actual purpose!
Xia Fang looked at Qian Wang mockingly and suddenly felt that Qian’e was actually quite pathetic and pitiful. Her useless father only cared about his own reputation and did not care about her at all.
“You all just continue to get along with one another. What I do has nothing to do with him. If you need to hate someone, just hate me,” Qian’e said stubbornly as she looked at Qiao Mei and Xia Fang.
“If you don’t want to apologize, then you can go back,” Qiao Mei said to Qian’e.
Although Qian’e almost hurt her, she could roughly understand the situation Qian’e was in by looking at the way Qian Wang behaved. She just could not understand why Qian’e carried on making mistakes and getting into trouble.
Seeing Qiao Mei’s nonchalant attitude, Qian’e felt her eyes reddened. She thought about how she used to frequent this house and come over often for meals.
She still remembered all the furnishings in this house clearly. Yet, everything belonged to Qiao Mei now.
“What right do you have to enjoy all of this! All these used to belong to me!” Qian’e suddenly shouted at Qiao Mei.
Xia Fang immediately shielded Qiao Mei behind her. For consecutive days, it was either the Sun family’s children who came to cause trouble or Qian’e who came to pick a fight. It was so hard to chase away these people.
“What used to belong to you?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.
“The person Xia Zhe should marry is me! Why should it be a country bumpkin like you! What trick did you use to make Xia Zhe walk into your trap! Shameless thing! All of these should be mine!” Qian’e walked forward slowly and Qian Wang did not stop her.
Xia Fang pointed at Qian’e and roared, “I dare you to take another step! I’ll call the police! We won’t do anything, we’ll just let the police settle everything!”
The moment Qian Wang heard that Xia Fang wanted to call the police, he hurriedly held Qian’e back and said to Xia Fang, “No need to go to that extent. Don’t be angry, Xia Fang. It’s just that Xiao’e could not let go of the issue yet.”
“If she can’t let it go, then go home! Don’t cause trouble for us here! What a jinx!” Xia Fang said.
Qian Wang whispered to Qian’e, “Don’t go looking for trouble. Think about it, your mother is still at home.”
When Qian’e heard this, she fell silent. Both Qiao Mei and Xia Fang also heard what he said. They originally thought that Qian Wang was a decent person, but they did not expect him to be such a person.
Qiao Mei looked at Qian’e, who was being forced into a corner by Qian Wang, and thought of the time when she was forced to do farm work at Qiao Zhuang’s house. At that time, they all lied to her and said that her mother did not want her anymore, and that she needed to work hard to be able to see her mother.
