“Xiao’e, you must be tired after waiting for so long. How have you been recently? How are you?” Ma San said with a smile.
Qian’e was so disgusted by Ma San that she could not help but shiver and said, “Stay away from me! You have the cheek to sit beside me when you’re such a disgusting person! I find your mouth smelly! Get lost!”
Ma San’s expression instantly darkened. He Mei also gestured with her hand and used her eyes to indicate that he should not speak.
At this moment, Qiao Mei and Xia He arrived near the pavilion. They had made their way there by circling around from the back and did not attract He Mei’s attention. The two of them slowly moved behind the bushes behind the pavilion, to a spot about 200 meters away from them.
With Qiao Mei’s ability, she could go somewhere else to take a rest and simply used the plants to hear what they were talking about. However, she was afraid that Xia He would become suspicious, so it was better for her to follow them in person.
“Alright, alright! Let’s hurry up and get down to business!” He Mei said impatiently.
Qian’e looked at the time and guessed that Qiao Mei must be nearby. She said leisurely, “Did you ask me here just to make me feel disgusted?”
“Make you feel disgusted? Why would I do that? I’m here to help you,” He Mei said.
Only a fool would believe you! If He Mei could help, then a sow would be able to climb a tree! She was simply full of lies!
If He Mei had not said that this matter was related to Qiao Mei, she would not have been interested in meeting He Mei, as it made her feel nauseous to even speak to He Mei. Since Qiao Mei could bring down the He family, she must be able to deal with He Mei!
No matter how much money He Mei was willing to give her, she would not agree. Instead of money, she would much rather see He Mei kneeling at her feet in a sorry state and begging for mercy.
“Help me? How? Are you going to return my uterus to me so that I can have a child!” Qian’e looked at He Mei mockingly.
Ma San’s guilty conscience caused him to immediately turn around to look at the surrounding scenery.
“Calm down, calm down. I have asked you here to discuss something with you. I can give you 20,000 dollars first and 30,000 dollars after it’s done,” He Mei said.
Qian’e remained unmoved. She was only interested in knowing what He Mei wanted her to do.
“Tell me, what do you want me to do?” Qian’e said nonchalantly.
He Mei clenched her fists and said angrily, “As long as you find a way to make Qiao Mei lose her baby, this 50,000 dollars is yours.”
“Qiao Mei and I have already had bad blood in the past. Everyone knows that I quarreled with her in the neighborhood back then. How can it be so easy for me to harm her now?” Qian’e questioned.
“I’ll help you think of a way. As long as you make her lose her child, I’ll give you money immediately and I guarantee that nothing will happen to you,” He Mei said confidently.
Once something happened, Qian’e would be the first person that the Xia family looked for. Once it was discovered that she was the one who killed Qiao Mei’s child, she would have to go to jail. At that time, He Mei would only pretend not to know anything and push all the blame solely to her.
“He Mei, do you think I’m still the same fool from back then? This is murder. If things go wrong, it’s two lives that might be lost. What if I go to jail? I know that your He family is rich and powerful and doesn’t care about this 50,000 dollars, but even if I’m interested in this 50,000 dollars, I have to be alive to be able to spend it,” Qian’e said.
He Mei was a little surprised that the previously gullible Qian’e had become so smart. She could actually rationalize so much.
“How would I? You’re thinking too much,” He Mei said awkwardly.
“I won’t do this. You should go and find someone else.” After saying that, Qian’e stood up and prepared to leave.
She knew that with the He family in such a predicament, He Mei had run out of options. She was the only one who could help He Mei resolve this big problem. At this moment, no matter what request she made, He Mei would consider it.
“Stop! What do you want! Just name your price!” He Mei said as she blocked Qian’e from leaving.
Qian’e smiled and said, “50,000 dollars is not enough. If you want to do it, you have to show your sincerity.”
“100,000 dollars, no more than that.” He Mei gritted her teeth and looked at Qian’e.
When the He family first got into trouble, He Ning and He Guo gave her a total of 150,000 dollars and asked her to think of a way to contact all the He family’s long-time acquaintances. As the saying went, rats would leave a sinking ship. The people who relied on the He family in the past simply ignored He Mei, completely forgetting about the He family’s kindness towards them in the past.
Now, she could only make use of Qiao Mei to negotiate with the Xia family. This was the only method she could think of.
