658 Crazy
Xia He smiled and went forward to welcome her. She helped with the luggage and said, “Why didn’t you put your luggage in the car? I remember that my brother sent a car to pick you up.”
“I… I’m too embarrassed to make them wait for me at the intersection for so long, so I asked them to leave first,” Qian’e said embarrassedly.
Xia He brought her to see Xia Wen. Xia Wen was different from He Ning. Although they were both equally scheming, He Ning gave people the feeling that he was like a cold poisonous snake that would take their lives at any moment. Xia Wen was different. He was gentle and reserved, like a nice gentleman, and it made people let down their guards.
“How is it? Have you rested well recently?” Xia Wen asked gently.
Qian’e nodded. If not for Xia Wen taking precautions back then, she probably would have already died at the hands of the He family.
However, everything was fine now. He Mei was the one who was going to die.
“Why are you looking for me?” Xia Wen asked.
Qian’e paused for a while and then said, “I want to go and send He Mei off. Is that alright?”
“It’s not that you can’t, but I heard that He Mei is not in a good state of mind and has been acting crazy. Although the people escorting He Mei to the mountain area are our guys, we can’t be 100% sure that you’ll be safe,” Xia Wen said awkwardly.
“It’s alright. I just want to see the miserable state He Mei is in. The fact that she harmed me back then has always been a thorn in my heart. Now that she has ended up like this, I want to go and take a look. Don’t worry, I won’t get close to her,” Qian’e said firmly.
After much consideration, Xia Wen finally agreed to her request. However, she would have to send He Mei off tonight. He Mei had suggested the timing. She was unwilling to leave this place in the daytime as she was afraid of running into someone she knew. If that happened, she would be completely embarrassed.
In reality, she did not have to be too concerned about her reputation. Everyone already knew about what happened to her.
The wind was particularly cold at night and it was the Xia family who made arrangements for the car and driver. When He Mei reached her destination, there would be someone specially sent to pick her up. Under normal circumstances, she should have taken the bus with the other people who were going to rebuild the village.
However, they were afraid that she would escape halfway or that the He family would secretly intercept and rescue her on the way. If that happened, the Xia family would have worked so hard for nothing.
The safest way was for the Xia family to arrange for their own people to send He Mei there personally. They hoped that she would obediently stay there and improve herself and stop causing trouble.
He Mei did not bring much luggage with her. Huo Gao had arranged for her to bring similar items as the other people who were going to rebuild the village. It was definitely not He Mei’s usual style. Huo Gao did this to show the Xia family their sincerity.
“Where’s my Little Uncle? Why isn’t anyone sending me off? Where are they? Did you hide my Little Uncle! Or did you lie to him and send him somewhere else! My Little Uncle won’t let me go without coming to send me off! You’re all liars!” He Mei shouted.
The soldiers around her were unmoved. It had been more than just a day or two since He Mei behaved in this crazy manner. Ever since He Mei found out that her face was scratched and scarred, her mental state had been a little off. In addition, she felt that she had been sabotaged by the Xia family to go and rebuild the village while her father was also suffering in prison.
She seemed to have become a different person. She was crazy at times and sober at times.
The soldiers did not leave with He Mei immediately. Instead, they held her in place as if they were waiting for someone. He Mei’s smile gradually became more impudent and her words became more arrogant.
“Are you waiting for my Little Uncle! Hahahaha! As expected, you’re a bunch of dogs. So what if you’re the Xia family’s dogs? Don’t you still have to wait for my Little Uncle to come before we can go? A bunch of useless people! When my Little Uncle comes later, let me go back or none of you will have an easy time!” He Mei said arrogantly.
Applause suddenly sounded from afar. He Mei looked into the distance in confusion. It was too dark and the street lamps were very dim, so she could not see who it was.
“You’re still counting on He Ning to come and save you now? Don’t you know who arranged for you to go and rebuild the village?” Qian’e walked to He Mei’s side with a smile.
He Mei said disdainfully, “I was wondering who it is. So it’s you, just another dog. Haven’t you learned your lesson after so many years? You dare to scheme against me this time, but when I come back, I’ll definitely make you pay the price in blood. You’ll also taste all the hardships I’ve suffered!”
