Chapter 91 - Shes No More... (1/2)
Xu Mey noticed Ye Jie's unusual gaze. He was staring at He Jian and Wu Wang as if both of them were the criminals. And he was the executioner.
"Why are you giving odd looks to my Jian Ge and Wang Ge?" She couldn't help herself and asked him. Ye Jie looked at her face. As if reading Ye Jie's mind, Xu Mey burst out laughing.
"You think that Jian Ge or Wang Ge are engaged to Yu Kim?" She asked in between her hearty laugh.
"Am I wrong?" He inquired cautiously.
"Of course you're wrong, dear husband." Xu Mey consciously ruffled Ye Jie's hair and when his soft hair felt good to touch, she forgot to move her hand away. "The brother I was talking about is neither Jian Ge nor Wang Ge. The brother I was talking about is actually Qiao's cousin brother. What was his name?" She had a thoughtful look.
"Ahan!" She clicked her fingers and said, "Xin Xiamu. Yup… That's the name."
Ye Jie was enjoying her messing with his hair softly but the name entangled his curiosity.
Xin Xiamu? Why does it sound familiar?
"Hey, cherry wife!" Ye Jie started.
"En."
"Is this Xin Xiamu the same one from Xin Group of Industries?" He asked.
"Yes… He is." She replied in a bored way engrossed in eating her burger.
"How is Li Qiao related to Xin Xiamu? I never knew he had a cousin." Ye Jie commented.
Xu Mey placed her half-eaten burger on the plate, wiped her face with a napkin and sighed. "Actually my dear husband, Li Qiao's father was Xin Zhang who was Xin Xiamu's uncle. But when Li Qiao was born, a monk said something about his safety and life and whatnot. To be safe, Auntie Li gave her own family name to Li Qiao. So, Xin Qiao became Li Qiao. Got it?" She looked at him listening with utmost attention.
"That explains a lot." He said. "But can't his cousin walk out of this engagement. After all, Li Qiao and Yu Kim like each other."
