The entire place instantly fell silent and no one dared to speak. At the end of the day, this was a matter for the second branch family and it was not really appropriate for Xia Jun to say anything more. Xia Yao coughed and said, “Ahem, this is not a small matter so we should still think about it at length. Let’s not talk about this today! Let’s enjoy our meal! Everyone, let’s eat!”

“Yes, yes, yes! Let’s eat!” Liu Fen quickly echoed.

After the meal, the family members split to do their own things. A few of them gathered together to chat while a few went to play with the children. Xia Fang brought Xia Wan and Gao Long to the hospital for a checkup. Xia He quietly came to Qiao Mei’s side.

“Sigh… What do you think about the issue with Xia Wan…” Xia He said, looking troubled.

“Huh? There’s nothing much we can say about this issue. Let’s see what Grandfather and Second Uncle decide,” Qiao Mei said.

Xia He sat by the window and looked at Qiao Mei as she said, “But I keep feeling bad about it. If it wasn’t because I was pregnant, Xia Wan wouldn’t have brought Xia Mo to Country M and those things after that wouldn’t have happened.”

“You’re not a psychic and you can’t control their fate. Besides, we still don’t even know if it’ll turn out to be a blessing or a curse,” Qiao Mei comforted her.

“Xia Mo is not an insensible child. I think she will be receptive towards it,” Xia He said.

“That’s not necessarily true. Xia Mo is currently in her puberty stage. Her mother has just ended one marriage and is about to start another one. Furthermore, her mother hasn’t even told her about the new relationship before becoming pregnant. It’s inevitable that she will read too much into the situation. If it’s you, won’t you feel sad?” Qiao Mei said.

Xia He sighed. What Qiao Mei said was true. Every family had its own difficulties.

Xia Zhe started a game of catch with the children. After playing for a while, he squatted down and said to them, “Papa and Mama have to go and deal with a very important matter. Can you allow us to leave for a while? We’ll come back and play with you later.”

Xia Fan grabbed the corner of Xia Zhe’s shirt and said reluctantly, “Papa, is it something very important?”

“Yes… Yes, it’s something that only we can do,” Xia Zhe explained as he looked at Xia Fan earnestly.

“Enough, Xia Fan! Papa needs to go! Don’t waste any more of his time! Xia Yue and I will play with you!” Xia Xing said as she grabbed Xia Fan’s hand.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The three children had quite different personalities. Xia Fan had a mild character and never kicked up any fuss. He was also very well-behaved. As for Xia Xing, although she was a girl, she had a carefree character and behaved like a tomboy. Xu Lan often felt that it would be great if Xia Fan and Xia Xing could swap their personalities.

Xia Yue was the one who resembled Qiao Mei the most. He was smart, cheeky and very likable. Even at such a young age, he was sometimes more quick-witted than some adults!

Any other child would definitely cry and ask Xia Zhe not to leave when faced with such a situation, but his children could understand that he had his difficulties. Xia Zhe felt very touched and at the same time, he was very grateful to Qiao Mei for bringing up the children so well.

After Xia Zhe handed the children over to Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang, he went over to Qiao Mei and said, “It’s time. Come with me.”

“Where are we going?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

“It’s a secret. I’ve already told Grandfather we have to go,” Xia Zhe said.

Xia Zhe grabbed Qiao Mei and pulled her out of the room. After they got into the car, Qiao Mei asked, “Why are you being so secretive? Don’t tell me you secretly bought another house!”

“Of course not. I’m bringing you to go and take a look at those treasures. I heard from my superior that the things have been transported back today. I’ve already gotten people to send them to the manor,” Xia Zhe said.

“Really! How can it be so fast! I thought that it would take a long time!” Qiao Mei smacked Xia Zhe’s shoulder excitedly and yelled, “Drive faster! Drive faster! I can’t wait anymore!”

Xia Zhe smiled dotingly. His little girl was still so cute. Along the way, Qiao Mei’s initial excitement gradually turned into worry. She wondered how much of those things she could retain.

“How did you get approval for those things? Are you sure they’re all fully approved? What if the He family gets a hold over us?” Qiao Mei asked with a frown.

“Everything has been done properly. Otherwise, I won’t have been able to transport everything back. However, it’s better not to expose those things which are more special. It would be terrible if our overseas acquaintances find out about this,” Xia Zhe said.

“That’s good enough,” Qiao Mei said with a sigh of relief.

“But…” Xia Zhe hesitated, seemingly not knowing how to explain it to Qiao Mei.

“What’s wrong with you? What is it that you can’t tell me straight up?” Qiao Mei looked at Xia Zhe and asked in confusion. They had already been married for so many years, yet Xia Zhe could still be tongue-tied about something.
