Chapter 193 Yousre Going to Be a Father (2/2)
”I really don't know.” A Miao said with a sigh, ”Who is going to spend so much money to catch me...”
Before she had finished speaking, Shen Xinglan rushed over and shouted, ”Why are you sighing?” Then he lifted his feet and kicked Ouyang Jin. ”I said not to approach A Miao.”
Ouyang Jin jumped away. ”Ok, ok, ok, but it's not necessary. I'm going!” He ran to the door and pulled it open, then turned to say, ”Let's see how to deal with this quickly so that I can go back and get you a bronze mirror jade pendant.”
”Do you think those guys also came to get the jade pendant?” A Miao asked him, ”Do you think it is possible that it was Xiao Yue?”
She had disliked her for a long time, and moreover, wasn't the Xiao family also looking for a bronze mirror jade pendant?
”It wasn't her.” Shen Xinglan looked at his watch. ”Xiao Yue's identity is very embarrassing for the Xiao family.”
There was only one girl in this generation of the Xiao family, Xiao Mei. Because of her natural intelligence and being clever and lovely at an early age, she was very popular with the householder, her grandfather.
”When she was three years old, her father had Xiao Yue with another woman outside. Xiao Mei's mother was in a powerful underground organization in the area. Naturally, she would not let go of the mother and daughter.”
Xiao Mei's father picked himself clean afterward, saying that the woman had seduced him when he was drunk. Xiao Yue's mother begged him to let the child go, then she committed suicide.
”Xiao Mei did not accept her?” A Miao asked curiously, ”No, if she did not accept her, then how can Xiao Yue marry into the Jiang family?”
Shen Xinglan touched her head while saying, ”Xiao Mei's mother was going to kill Xiao Yue at that time. Then, Xiao Mei's aunt just gave birth to a baby girl. But the baby had congenital heart disease and died within a month of birth.”
The Xiao family still retained many traditions, such as the eldest son running the family and passing on the male to the female. At that time, Xiao Mei's uncle had just separated at a time of high tension with Xiao Mei's father.
”Xiao Mei's uncle loved his wife very much and knew that his wife had always wanted a girl, but her body was unable to regenerate. He asked to adopt the female baby. Xiao Mei's grandfather agreed after discussing it with her father.”
A Miao always disliked the behavior of the big families and she curled her lips. ”Does Xiao Yue know that she is actually Xiao Mei's half-sister?”
”Yes.” Shen Xinglan again looked at the table below. ”They didn't hide it later.”
The Xiao family's second son and his wife were very good to Xiao Yue. Even though Xiao Mei looked at her unhappily again, it was impossible to touch her. The most important thing was that Xiao Yue also resolved herself to improve. Later on, the householder gradually accepted her.
”No wonder she can marry Jiang Hua on behalf of the Xiao family,” A Miao said then suddenly looked in Shen Xinglan's eyes curiously. ”Then why didn't Xiao Mei marry him herself?”
The Jiang family was better than the Xiao family, both financially and in status. Why did she give Xiao Yue such a good opportunity?
”That is their business, we don't care!” Shen Xinglan took out the milk that had been kept warm in the thermos and said, ”Drink it quickly.”
Shen I knocked on the door and leaned half of his body inside. ”Boss, the fruit is here.”
”Come in.”
A few people came in behind Shen I holding large baskets.
”Put it on the balcony outside.” Shen Xinglan inspected them one by one, then asked, ”Where are the apples?”
Shen I took out a plate of cut apples.
”Did you buy fruit?” A Miao saw him put the apples on the heating device.
Shen Xinglan bent the corners of his mouth and said, ”They are all organic fruits. I had them cut and delivered.”
”Yes, it will be the Spring Festival in three days!” A Miao suddenly remembered it, then said regretfully, ”It seems that I will be spending this year's New Year's Eve in the hospital.”
”It doesn't matter.” Shen Xinglan tested the temperature of the apple with his hand. ”I'll have them all come to the hospital to keep you company.”
Anyway, it was a suite, and very big. When the time came, they could decorate it again. This would be the first New Year's Eve after he and A Miao had met again, so it had to be celebrated properly.
When sleeping at night, A Miao remembered the afternoon conversation again. ”If Xiao Yue didn't attack me, do you think it could be Xiao Mei?”
”Why do you think it was her?” Shen Xinglan had just taken a bath and carefully climbed into bed in his pajamas.
”I don't know, it was a sudden thought,” said A Miao, who took the initiative to get into his arms.
”Xiao Mei has been abroad the entire time. She should not do such a thing during the wedding of the Xiao and Jiang families.” Shen Xinglan wrapped his arms around her. ”The important thing is that she has no motive.”
Seizing A Miao and threatening him to hand over the bronze mirror jade pendant? Xiao Mei would not be so brainless.
In contrast, Shen Xinglan was more suspicious of another person.
”We met a very young boy in this operation.” He told her the situation again. ”Unfortunately, there are no clues, even his appearance is not clear.”
A Miao scowled. ”So many people want to steal the bronze mirror jade pendant. What is its secret?”
”Take a look at yourself. Use your brain again.” Shen Xinglan kissed her on the forehead and said, ”Don't think about those upsetting things. I've heard people say that if you always frown while pregnant, the child will be born like a little old man.”
”Hehe, who told you that?” A Miao poked him. ”Don't think I didn't know you were secretly surfing the Internet this afternoon.”
Shen Xinglan saw her smile like a little rabbit, then got an itch in his mind to bow his head and kiss her.
”Well...” When he found the man's hand in her clothes, she pushed it away quickly. ”No... baby...”
Shen Xinglan buried his head in her chest. ”I know, I won't move! I'll behave and go to sleep.”
Early in the morning on the second day, He Shishi came to the hospital.
”A Miao!” Before she got to her, she was pushed aside by Shen Xinglan and almost fell down.
”A Miao... I've come to apologize.”
