Chapter 246 - Biggest Duffer (1/2)

-Two Weeks Later-

Although the news about Xu Liqing's wedding incidents had vanished from the news channels, there was no one in the elite circle who wasn't gossiping about it.

Xu Liqing was kept in isolation to not let her harm anyone. The doctors have claimed that she had an unstable mental state and that's why she was under strict supervision. While her mother, Fu Lan was still in a coma. The doctors weren't very hopeful about her condition.

But neither the Fu family showed any concern about these two nor the Xu family. After the night of the incident, Xu Cheng didn't even come to check up on their condition.

But he had genuine reasons for that. The Xu Corporation had fallen into chaos after everything that came to light about Xu Liqing. The company's shares dropped since their reputation took a huge blow.

Xu Cheng had been busy trying to solve everything in the previous weeks.

"Sir, Old master asked to see you in his study," the maidservant informed Xu Cheng when he came home that night.

"Father, you want to discuss something," Xu Cheng entered the study room of his father and asked.

"I have invited Xiao Mey for lunch tomorrow. You better be there." Grandfather Xu informed his son.

Xu Cheng frowned, not knowing the intention of his father at all. But since he had already invited Xu Mey, Xu Cheng had no reason to argue. If nothing else, he thought he'll have some time to spend with his daughter.

On the next day, the entire Xu Residence was engaged in preparing for the lunch since the early morning. One could say that it had been decades since the last time Xu Residence was this lively. Grandfather Xu had been ordering people around to make everything perfect and Xu Cheng was not at all surprised to see his father's vigor.

Around half past twelve, Xu Mey arrived at the Xu Residence but she came alone. After hugging his favorite granddaughter, grandfather Xu questioned, "Where is your husband?"

"Ah-Jie had some important matter at hand." Xu Mey answered with a warm smile on her face.

"Come join us inside," Xu Cheng gestured for his daughter to come inside and when Xu Mey took a few steps further inside, she couldn't help but be surprised.

"Dad, what happened to the house?" She noticed how the entire interior seemed different than the last time she visited. And oddly, seeing the combination of nature and art, Xu Mey was sure that it couldn't be Fu Lan's choice at all.

"Ah, this... I asked some people to change the interior. The old one reminded me too much of the woman who I wish never comes back to my life." Xu Cheng replied nonchalantly.

Xu Mey nodded her head but didn't comment further. After they settled in the sitting area, Xu Mey turned to her grandfather, "Grandfather, why did you call for me? Is there something wrong?"

Grandfather Xu sighed heavily. "Have you heard about the predicaments of Xu Corporations?"
