“Yes, we have to make preparations for her funeral, but you don’t have to worry. We’ll still continue to hire you. Qiao Mei has given birth to two babies, but they’re both still not out of danger. If the two children survive, we’ll still need you to take care of them. If… if they don’t, Qiao Mei’s grandfather and mother also need someone to take care of them, so you can rest a.s.sured and continue working at Qiao Mei’s house,” Xia Jun said.

He knew that this person had a good character. Judging from the concern in her eyes and the fact that she was the one who protected Qiao Mei when Qiao Mei faced trouble, it was enough to see her loyalty. Furthermore, she had worked for various families for so many years. If she was not an honest person, she would not have been able to continue working until now. When the truth was revealed, they would definitely give her a bonus, but now… now was not the time.

“Alright, I know what to do,” Feng Hua said. After that, the chauffeur sent her back to Qiao Mei’s house.

Xu Lan had brought a lot of things from her own house to the hospital. If she took maternity items from Qiao Mei’s house, it would make people suspicious. It was safer to bring the things from her place. If she bought anything from the hospital now, it would also attract the wrong kind of attention.

She decided to leave Xia He’s issue to Xia Wen. As for Qiao Mei’s matter, she would listen to Xia Jun. As long as the family worked together, they would definitely be able to overcome any difficulties.

“Don’t mention this matter to Xia Wen and Xia He for the time being. I know how to handle Xia Xiu and the rest. Before the truth is revealed, no one is allowed to enter this room except Sister Zhang and Xia Fang,” Xia Jun said.

“Yes, I understand. Father, let’s go and visit Uncle Qiao. He’s just next door,” Xu Lan said.

Xia Jun felt at a loss. He did not know how to face Qiao Qiang. Qiao Qiang had handed Qiao Mei over to his family, but after coming to the capital, she had encountered so many issues which threatened her life.

If he put himself in Qiao Qiang’s shoes and it was Xia He who encountered all these things, he would have brought her home long ago. He would not allow anyone to threaten Xia He’s life.

He really… was too embarra.s.sed to face Qiao Qiang.

“Uncle Qiao… Uncle Qiao won’t take it to heart,” Xu Lan said.

“I hope so…” Xia Jun said with a deep sigh.

Xia Jun slowly made his way to the ward next door with Xu Lan’s help. At this moment, Qiao Qiang was still unconscious and Li Gui was taking care of him.

“What does the doctor say? Is Brother Qiao awake yet?” Xia Jun asked anxiously.

“The doctor says he fainted because he was too tense. He still has a low grade fever now. They will be giving him an injection and he should feel better tomorrow. Qiao Mei’s father-in-law brought some medicinal wine just now. He seemed better after drinking it,” Li Gui said.

Xia Jun suddenly bowed deeply to Li Gui and Xu Lan quickly followed suit. They bowed to Li Gui to express their family’s apology with regard to Qiao Mei.

Li Gui quickly helped Xia Jun and Xu Lan straighten up and said, “What are you doing! Get up quickly! Get up quickly!”

“Our Xia family has let you down. We didn’t take good care of Qiao Mei and let her get into such trouble at home. There’s truly nothing we can do to make it up to you,” Xia Jun said apologetically.

“You can’t be blamed for this, nor is it your fault. I was also at home at that time. If I had paid more attention to Qiao Mei, such a thing wouldn’t have happened to her. It’s a good thing that she’s fine and that’s the most important thing,” Li Gui said sadly.

She had also been too careless the past two days as she thought that with so many people in the house taking care of Qiao Mei, nothing would happen. She also bore an undeniable responsibility for Qiao Mei’s current situation.

“I hope to keep this matter a secret for now. We want to catch the culprit who’s behind the scenes, so we have to release news that Qiao Mei is no longer with us. Those of us who know the truth must strictly keep this matter a secret,” Xia Jun instructed.

Li Gui nodded and asked seriously, “So do I have to act crazy and make a big show of crying?”

That was how it was usually portrayed in television dramas. There was always a character who would cause a scene in the hospital and then she would cry until she fainted. Only then would the perpetrator, who must be hiding and observing in secret, really believed that the news of Qiao Mei’s death was real.

“I don’t think… there’s a need for it. I don’t want to cause you any health problems from crying too much,” Xia Jun said.

After briefing all the relevant parties, they did not stay in the hospital any longer. They were all looking forward to seeing what would happen the next day and whether the wily fox would come out from hiding.
