“It’s the festive season, so I have co to visit Xia Xing. Third Uncle is not at ho today?” Xia Wen asked curiously.
“Don’t you know why your third uncle isn’t at ho?” Zhou Kui said moodily.
Xia Wen knew very well that Xia Guang was helping Tang Hui to move to a new house! Many northerners had headed to the south to do business and there were many vacant houses around, so it was not difficult to rent one.
Xia Guang took great care not to tell anyone the address of this house and even carried out the move in secret. He was worried that if word got out and Zhou Hua found out about it, she would co looking for trouble again.
Even after Tang Hui moved, she still had to continue teaching at Seventh High. If Zhou Hua went to the school to cause trouble, there was nothing they could do. Xia Guang had even thought about getting Tang Hui another job.
Qiao i arrived at Xia Xing’s house with two boxes of bird’s nests. She heard that Shao Yin had not been feeling well lately, so she had specially bought so top-notch bird’s nests for Shao Yin to nourish her body!
“Everyone is here! I’m really sorry to be late. It’s all because of the traffic jam!” Qiao i said as she pushed open the door.
“Hmph! You’re not welco in our house! You should not have co!” Old Madam Zhou said.
Qiao i was not affected, but Xia Wen’s expression darkened instantly. However, Old Madam Zhou was still an elder and it was not good for him to talk back to her too directly. He turned to look at Xia Xing, wanting to know how Xia Xing felt about this matter. However, he did not expect Xia Xing to look at Qiao i as if she was his enemy!
“Really? Why did I hear that this is the house which Third Uncle gave to Xia Xing? Doesn’t that an it’s the Xia family’s asset? When did the Zhou family buy it from us? Why haven’t we heard anything about such an important matter?” Qiao i asked.
Old Madam Zhou smacked the table and shouted, “This is my grandson’s house! Who do you think you are!”
“Old Madam Zhou, we’re here to celebrate the festive season with my younger cousin, Xia Xing. We’re not here to get reprimanded by your Zhou family.” Xia Wen emphasized the words “my younger cousin”. As for whether Xia Xing was willing to respect this relationship, that was up to Xia Xing.
“I want to ask both of you. Did you send that woman nad Tang Hui to my father!” Xia Xing said as he stared at Qiao i.
“Send? She’s a living person and not an object. How can I send her to Third Uncle? Besides, even if I send her to him, it’s up to him whether he wants to accept her,” Qiao i said.
“So you’re admitting that you’re the culprit!” Xia Xing said.
“I t her for the first ti when Third Uncle first brought her ho. We have never interacted previously. If you don’t believe , you can always go and do a check. That person has a good temper and a nice personality. I’ve always been able to get along with people who are polite and civilized,” Qiao i said sarcastically.
Everyone present knew what she was driving at. She was just short of saying that the Zhou family mbers were all boorish and extrely rude people. In particular, Zhou Hua was a real shrew!
When Old Madam Zhou thought about how her two daughters had lost to Qiao i, she could not control her anger. She picked up the hot water bottle next to her and threw it at Qiao i. As they were very near to each other, Qiao i could not dodge in ti, so she instinctively shielded her face with her arm. Xia Wen made a swift decision to stand in front of Qiao i.
The good thing was that the water in the bottle had already cooled down, so Xia Wen was not scalded. However, the broken pieces from the smashed bottle nicked Xia Wen’s arm and the back of his hand. Blood started dripping from his fingertips onto the floor.
“Eldest Brother!” Qiao i exclaid.
“I’m fine. These are just superficial wounds,” Xia Wen said after taking a look at his arm.
Old Madam Zhou was too old, so they could not do anything to her. Qiao i raised her hand and gave Xia Xing a slap, causing his face to swell up instantly. She said furiously, “Do you even see us as your family mbers! You can still look on so indifferently even when Eldest Brother is being bullied!”
“Qiao i, forget it. Let’s go,” Xia Wen said as he looked at Xia Xing in disappointnt.
All this while, he had spent so much ti and effort on Xia Xing. He was the one who helped Xia Xing to secure his current job and this house. In the past, when Xia Xing’s results were poor, Xia Wen would tutor Xia Xing at night while still attending school in the morning. When Xia Xing was bullied by hooligans, he went and taught those hooligans a lesson. He cared for Xia Xing like how he cared for Xia Zhe. He did not know when Xia Xing had beco like this.
Qiao i supported Xia Wen and they were about to leave when Zhou Hua suddenly returned. When she saw Qiao i, she looked as if she had been possessed by a ghost. She imdiately rushed towards Qiao i and wanted to pick a fight, so Xia Wen kicked her aside. She had not recovered from her old injuries and this kick made her feel worse. Her face was pale as she fell on the floor and she could not move.
“Assholes! You’re all assholes! It’s one thing for you people to bully outside Tang Hui’s house! But now you even bully at my house! Do you think the Xia family is that powerful in the capital?” Zhou Hua said aggrievedly.
