Chapter 210 Sisters of Xia Family (1/2)
Xiao Mei smirked when she noticed Jiang Quanyu looked pale. ”What happened? Did she cry to you?”
”Haven't you all heard about it?” Jiang Quanyu put his phone down. ”She said nothing.”
Xiao Yue curved up the corners of his mouth. ”It seems that they had a quarrel.”
”Women!” Surprisingly, Xiao Mei agreed with her. ”All of them might feel jealous.”
Jiang Quanyu stared at her with hostility. ”What are you planning to do?”
”None of your business.” Xiao Mei got up and prepared to leave, turning her head when she reached the door and warned, ”Don't do anything useless. We have no time.”
Xiao Yue touched her teacup and said, ”It's not over yet. It's not too late to inform A Miao.”
”You know that I can't say it!” Jiang Quanyu punched on the chair back violently. ”Jiang and Xiao family won't leave A Miao alone without the bronze mirror and jade pendant.”
He had little say in his family. Once they knew they couldn't get the treasures, they would go after A Miao like crazy. And at that time, he would not even be able to protect her life.
”I have heard that Shen Xinglan has a close relationship with some killer group. Maybe he has his own way to handle it.” Xiao Yue reminded him. ”Haven't you told me that he seems to be the leader of one?”
Jiang Quanyu kept quiet. No matter how badass Shen Xinglan could be, it's not like that his killer group was the only one in the whole world. And a puny killer as he was, he would not stand a chance against big families with colossal wealth and rich connections accumulated for generations.
At the same time, the despised puny killer was cooling off in the garden, holding his own treasure in his arms.
”Well, I originally did not want to take advantage of him.” A Miao was a little disappointed. ”But he also cheated me.”
It was A Miao who came up with the idea to use Jiang Hua to feed Xiao Mei mixed messages. But it was also she that felt bad about it. Before the phone call, she even thought that if he told her the truth that it was all part of Xiao Mei's scheme, she would change her mind and not do so.
However...
”Maybe Jiang Hua doesn't know it at all?” A Miao raised her head, asking.
Shen Xinglan glanced at her. ”You think you'd feel better with this self-consolation?”
”... All right.” Leaning back on the man's chest, A Miao soon figured it all out. Essentially, she and Jiang Hua were on the opposite side. She would look pretentious if she still thought too much.
”Let Xiao Mei do that as long as she doesn't affect you.” Shen Xinglan kissed her forehead. ”But I think those reporters will find us here sooner or later.”
A Miao laid her eyes on the strawberries on the table. She reached out to grab one and put it into her mouth. ”Haven't we already covered this issue? You are supposed to leave in a minute according to our plan.”
”Miss Elder, Shen Xinglan is returning to the city by car.”
Xiao Mei picked up a phone call from her subordinate and smirked. ”Are you sure he is actually in the car?”
”Yes, he was escorted by his two bodyguards.”
”Great. Just keep looking.”
As Shen Xinglan had expected before, Xiao Mei began her one-woman show. Reports of her and Shen Xinglan could be found on all kinds of newspaper and gossip magazines.
Those pictures were mostly Shen Xinglan's profile, or sometimes of his blurry front. But all people naturally believed that man was definitely Shen Xinglan because of the media's coverage.
”I saw Mr. Shen was fighting with his wife last night when I got off work. His wife was crying sadly.”
That's what a staff member from the resort said in an interview two days later. The outsiders were more convinced of the relationship between Shen Xinglan and Xiao Mei. Some of them even rumored that he had already divorced A Miao, preparing to marry Xiao Mei.
”She deserves it!” Xia Wan felt so good after reading those reports. She threw the magazines on the table and said, ”And that's not long after they got married. That stupid woman thought it was easy to be a wife in those rich and powerful families.”
Bai Youran raised up his head from a pile of documents. ”I have told you already. This bastard will end up in ditches, and now you can be happy.”
”How can I be happy?” Xia Wan shot him a glare. ”My mom's location is still a mystery and my father is always arguing with my second uncle in the company. They all drive me nuts!”
”I have already sent private detectives to find mom. Don't worry. Since it's her decision to leave, she won't be in danger.”
Xia Yongqiang was busy fighting with his younger brother since Xia Hailin took charge of the company. Yao Lili also secretly left them with her clothes and all the money in her secret stash.
Even Xia Wan did not know where she was.
”I just can't understand why she should run away at this moment.” Xia Wan was a bit annoyed. ”All right. I am going to have my hair done.”
Bai Youran saw her off in person. ”Maybe we can have dinner together tonight.”
”Sister!”
Xia Wan saw Xia Mei was about to leave when she finished her massage.
”When did you come? I didn't see you!” Xia Mei took Xia Wan's arm warmly and said. ”I just thought to call you. Let's have a meal together!”
The 23-year-old Xia Mei was young and beautiful. She became more lovely and clever when she was abroad. Now Xia Mei was wearing the latest miniskirt in the season, displaying her slim legs.
”Maybe another day. I've got a date with someone.” Xia Wan pushed her away with a cold face. She wished to give Xia Mei a slap in her mind.
”Are you showing off? Since the company now is in such a terrible situation, no one wants to see your pretentious face!” Xia Wan thought.
