“You’re an elder. If you kneel to us, you’ll take years off our lives. If you have something to say, you can say it while standing,” Qiao Mei said to Old Madam Kong.
Even if they did not allow Old Madam Kong to kneel, they had no reason to stop Kong Li. She was the same age as the two of them and they could not apply this logic to her. Old Madam Kong quickly gave Kong Li a look and Kong Li knelt down unwillingly.
Qiao Mei and Xia He were both a little shocked to see Kong Li do this. Back then, Kong Li had walked into Xia Fangs house so arrogantly and could not even accept the slightest inconveniences. If she was willing to kneel down right now, it meant that Old Madam Kong had indeed put her mind to get what she wanted this time round.
However, Kong Li was not doing this for anyone else! She was doing it for herself! She had already reached marriageable age. Recently, Old Madam Kong had been thinking about marrying her off and wanted to find her a man who could give the family a lot of betrothal gifts. It did not matter to Old Madam Kong the kind of job he had, what he looked like or even if he was an old man. Old Madam Kong would agree to the marriage so long as he could give them a lot of betrothal gifts.
Kong Li’s life had been smooth- sailing for a long time. After living such a comfortable life for so long, she did not want to suffer after marriage. She also wanted to be like Qiao Mei and marry into a wealthy family to become a rich wife!
As long as Xia He changed her mind and returned to their family, Xia He’s money would belong to them. If so, she would have an even better life than before! She would also be able to live in a house as big as Xia He’s house! For the sake of her future happiness, the sacrifices she made now were all worth it.
“Sister-in-law, it’s all my fault back then. Please forgive me!” Kong Li said through gritted teeth.
“These issues are in the past. Don’t mention the past anymore. I’m already married now and have my own life. I hope you won’t come and disturb me anymore,” Xia He said.
“You must have been forced into this marriage! I’m sure you still miss my Kong Lu! The two of you were so happy together back then! How can you let go of the relationship so easily? You must be lying!” Old Madam Kong said agitatedly.
Back then, Xia He had fallen head over heels for Kong Lu. The two of them spent all their time together and many people said that they were a match made in heaven. Back then, Xia He had also sworn in front of her family that she would not marry anyone other than Kong Lu. Whenever Xia He thought about this part of her past, she would feel extremely disgusted!
“Then is then and now is now. Don’t mix it all up. On account that we are acquaintances, I won’t hold it against you for coming to my house and disturbing my peace. However, if you do it again, I will call the police,” Xia He said sternly.
“If you don’t miss my son! Then why did you meet him two days ago? You even ordered his favorite dishes for him!” Old Madam Kong said indignantly.
Old Madam Kong took out a stack of letters from her pocket. No one was more familiar with these things than Xia He. These were the letters that Xia He had sent to Kong Lu when the two of them were dating. Those letters were full of sweet nothings.
“Look at these! These are the things you gave my son! Ever since you left, my son takes them out to read them every day. He really misses you! You don’t have any children with your current husband, right? As long as you get a divorce, my son will definitely be loyal to you and we also won’t cause any trouble for you!” Old Madam Kong said.
Qiao Mei did not say anything during this entire exchange. After all, this was Xia He’s personal issue. It was already a little weird and awkward for her to be sitting here now. However, she had to stay here and keep an eye on Xia He. She must ensure that Xia He did not get provoked by Old Madam Kong and prevent Xia He from doing anything rash.
Xia He shook her head helplessly. She did not know what was wrong with Old Madam Kong. Why was she refusing to let go of this issue?
Seeing that Xia He was indifferent to everything they said, Kong Li quickly bent down and kowtowed, knocking her head on the floor loudly. As she kowtowed, she shouted, “It’s all my fault! Sister-in-law, it’s all my fault! You can vent all your frustrations on me! So long as you’re willing to divorce this man! And get back together with my brother! I’m willing to be your slave!”
“I’m just an ordinary person. I don’t need anyone to be my slave. Just stay in your own lanes!” Xia He said in exasperation.
Qiao Mei suddenly heard the sound of a car coming down the street outside.
She was very sensitive to sounds and could immediately tell that it was her car. During the period when she went to study overseas, she had left the car with Xia Wen. She wondered why Xia Wen had chosen to come to Xia He’s house at this hour..
