Chapter 2003: Returning to the Capital
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Once everything was ready, the family set off in an orderly manner and took a flight back to the capital. Along the way, the three children did not cry or make a fuss. They leaned against the window curiously and kept looking out. When they made the trip to Country M, they had slept all the way due to the time difference.
After disembarking, Qiao Mei saw the Xia family members standing in a neat row at the arrival gate. This time, even Xia You had come along to pick Qiao Mei up.
However, Qiao Mei also discovered an uninvited guest among the big group of people, Kong Lu was hiding in the crowd behind the Xia family members. Xia He only had eyes for Deng Fan and did not notice him at all.
Kong Lu did not seem to have any intention of coming forward to greet Xia He. Qiao Mei kept quiet and pretended not to see him. She would discuss countermeasures with Xia He when they had some time later.
“Mother and Mom! We’re bacl+” Qiao Mei ran over to Xu Lan and Li Gui and said sweetly.
The two older women had tears in their eyes. They had not seen Qiao Mei for two years. Xu Lan pretended to reprimand her and said, “You! When you left back then, you said that you would come back every summer and winter break. But look at you, you didn’t even come back even once in the past two years! You don’t know how much we miss you!’
Qiao Mei quickly wiped the tears off Xu Lan’s face and said, “I’m really too busy with work over there. I’m sorry~ Mother, don’t be angry with me.”
“What a rascal! How can I be angry with you!” Xu Lan said with a smile.
Xia Xing jumped down from Luo Yu’s arms. She skipped over to Xia Wen and shouted in a crisp voice, “Uncle, carry me!”
“Oh my~My little baby still remembers me” Xia Wen said happily. Back then, he liked Xia Xing the most and also doted on her the most. It looked like he did not dote on her for nothing.
“l remember. Uncle likes me the mostQ’ Xia Xing replied.
On the other hand, Xia Fan and Xia Yue appeared a little aloof, but it was not really their fault. These two brothers did not like to talk and were exactly like Xia Zhe. Xia Yue, in particular, was a boy of few words and would only make noise when he was hungry or needed to go to the bathroom.
Qiao Mei noticed the dejected expressions which Gao Lin and Gao Ming had on their faces. She quickly led the two men to Qiao Qiang and said, “Grandfather, this is Grandmother’s biological younger brother.”
“You’re Wen Ran’s relatives! I always thought that Wen Ran was alone in this world. Good, it’s good that you’re back. Our family can be considered to be reunited now,” Qiao Qiang lamented.
Gao Ming wanted to correct Qiao Qiang that the name of the person he was talking about was Gao Tao and not Wen Ran. Gao Lin quickly stopped Gao
Ming. This matter was complicated and they should not talk about it in public. It was better to wait until they got home before asking more.
The big group made their way to the parking lot in a grand manner. At first, Gao Lin and Gao Ming thought that Qiao Mei’s family was just a typical wealthy family who lived in the villa area in the capital. They were already mentally prepared for it.
However, as they passed by several sentry posts and finally stopped in front of the courtyard house, Gao Lin and Gao Ming were completely stunned. They did not expect Qiao Mei’s family to be this wealthy and powerful. For a moment, the two men were at a loss.
“Hey, you haven’t told me what’s going on with those two people. Why haven’t I heard you talk about them before?” Xia Wen stood beside Qiao Mei and asked curiously.
Many of Xia Zhe’s assets and goods had to be transported back with Xia Wen’s help, so Xia Wen was kept updated on part of what was happening overseas. He already knew that Qiao Mei and Xia Zhe had reunited in Country M, but they had an unspoken mutual understanding and did not talk about this.
“It’s scary stuff. Once 1 start, I can talk for a day and a night. However, I can tell you that they’re my relatives and they’re not imposters,” Qiao Mei said firmly.
Since Qiao Mei had already given Xia Wen a guarantee, he did not continue to ask questions.
“Where’s Sister-in-law? Why isn’t she here today?” Qiao Mei asked.
“She’s pregnant and is resting at home now. It hasn’t been three months and the pregnancy isn’t stable yet. Mother is too worried to let her come out and walk around, so she’s not here today. She has asked me to send her apologies,” Xia Wen explained.
“Really? She’s pregnant! That means my three naughty monkeys will have a playmate soon,” Qiao Mei said happily..
