Tears welled up in Xia Wan’s eyes as she said aggrievedly, “Mother, I’m sorry. I don’t mean to hide it from you. I also only came to terms with my own feelings recently. I’m actually very afraid of getting remarried. I’m afraid of getting hurt again and I’m also afraid that you’ll worry along with me.”

During the period of Xia Wan’s divorce, Liu Fang did not have a good night’s sleep at all. Liu Fang’s life revolved around her husband, children and family. She did not even have much work experience. At that time, Liu Fang had called up every relative and friend she knew and went around asking for help to ensure that Xia Wan could divorce that man cleanly.

Xia Wan had seen all of this with her own eyes. The two of them had so many misunderstandings between them only because they were too concerned about each other and loved each other too much.

Liu Fang stood up and hugged Xia Wan, saying, “It’s fine as long as you feel blissful. Your younger siblings are all doing very well now. You don’t have to worry even if that man bullies you. Our family will slowly become as capable as the eldest son’s family. You can rely on your maternal family!”

Hearing this, Xia Wan could no longer hold back the emotions that she had suppressed for such a long time. She hugged Liu Fang and wept loudly, as if she was letting out all the grievances she had suffered over the years.

Gao Long stood at the entrance of the courtyard and smoked silently. He had previously sent people to investigate Xia Wan’s past but it was not to check on her. He wanted to know how Xia Wan had been hurt in the past so that he could avoid her sore spots.

Xu Lan stood behind Gao Long and said, “It’s cold out here. Come and take a seat inside. The two of them will probably chat throughout the entire night.”

Gao Long immediately put out his cigarette and said with a smile, “Xia Wan doesn’t know that I’m here. I just want to protect her. In that case, I’ll go back. It’s not convenient for me to stay here.”

Xu Lan considered this for a moment and did not ask Gao Long to stay. She said earnestly, “Xia Wan is the most obedient girl in our Xia family and also the kindest among all the kids. You must treat her well and don’t disappoint us.”

“I will,” Gao Long said solemnly.

“Go back now. It looks like you’re going to become the Xia family’s son-in-law soon. I’m looking forward to attending your wedding banquet,” Xu Lan said.

Gao Long happily returned to Qiao Qiang’s house to rest. The next day, Qiao Mei brought them to Li Gui’s restaurant for dinner. Xia Wan had been back for so long, but Li Gui had yet to formally welcome her back!

“Everyone, eat! I’m still busy in the kitchen! This meal is on me!” Li Gui said happily.

“Sure!” Xia Wan said.

Qiao Mei did not introduce Gao Long to Li Gui. After all, Li Gui did not have much to do with the Gao family and it was better not to upset Li Gui with such a problematic past. Gao Long also understood Qiao Mei’s concerns and did not think too much about it.

Everyone was caught up in a discussion about which room to stay in when they went to Qiao Mei’s manor. Xia He even wanted to refit her room to look the way she liked.

“Hey! The furniture in my house are all antiques! Don’t damage them!” Qiao Mei said.

“I’m very rich now! Tell me how much they are worth? I’ll just buy them!” Xia He said jokingly.

Qiao Mei’s things were priceless. They were all rare items!

Furthermore, she had secretly sent all these things back from Country M. Just the shipping fees alone had cost her a fortune. Xia Zhe also had to tap on many connections to do it. Otherwise, these items would have been robbed by pirates at sea before they could even reach the port in the country.

“There are still three small villas near my manor that have not been renovated. When the time comes, you can split them among yourselves and do your own renovations,” Qiao Mei said.

“Really? You’re willing to give them to us?” Xia He asked.

“Who said I’m giving it to you! The property rights are mine but you can stay there. I plan to develop that area into a vacation and recreation haven. When the weather gets hot, I’ll bring Grandfather and Father and Mother to escape the heat,” Qiao Mei said seriously.

After all, their family elders were not that young anymore. Even if they wanted to continue working, they would not be able to do it forever. The weather in the city was definitely hotter than in the suburbs. It was time for them to enjoy life.

Just as everyone was chatting happily, a few people came upstairs suddenly. Qiao Mei and Xia He were a little stunned. Was that not Xu Chun? Xia Yuan also looked quite unhappy to see her.

Xia Wan asked curiously, “What’s wrong with all of you? Someone you know?”

“This is the woman who kept pestering Xia Yuan. She’s a relative of Auntie Li’s boyfriend,” Xia He explained softly.

“Oh! Her!” Xia Wan said knowingly. She only knew that there was such a thing, but she had never met Xu Chun in person before. She only recalled this matter after seeing Xu Chun today.

Xu Chun pretended not to see Qiao Mei and the others and walked straight to the table opposite them. There was already a man and two women there and it looked like they had been waiting for Xu Chun for a long time.

“The woman in the middle is a famous matchmaker. She was the one who found husbands for many girls in our art troupe. Moreover, she only works with people from good families,” Xia He said.
