Xia He scratched her head in embarra.s.sment and said, “It can’t be helped. It’s not your birthday yet, so I can’t say that in case they find out in the future. That’s why I say that it’s my birthday and invite everyone to watch the fireworks. I bought up all the fireworks in the entire town! Just to celebrate this good news with everyone!”

“Only this once! No more next time! You have to pay them back based on the value of the gifts, do you hear me?” Qiao Mei said sternly.

“l know, I know! I’ve never received so many birthday gifts before! Let me see what everyone has gotten me! Luo Yu! Help me carry them in!” Xia He shouted at Luo Yu as she ran out.

Luo Yu had no choice but to ask Luo Hui to go together. There were so many gifts that even though there were three of them, they still needed to make a few trips from the car. Xia He placed all the things in the living room so that she could open a few presents every day. This would add some novelty to her daily life.

Qiao Mei packed up her things and went into the room to return Xia Wen’s

“Eldest Brother, is everything alright at home?” Qiao Mei asked.

“Everything is fine at home. You must have heard the news I told Xia He just now,” Xia Wen said in a gentle tone.

“Yes I do. Xia He has excitedly told the neighbors that it’s her birthday today and invited everyone in the entire town to watch a fireworks display. There are no firecrackers here, so she bought all the fireworks in the entire town to celebrate,” Qiao Mei said helplessly.

“Hahaha, this seems like something she will do,” Xia Wen said with a laugh.

“I heard her say that the family members had gone on a strike because of this matter. Now that it’s all over, are all of you alright?” Qiao Mei asked worriedly.

“Don’t worry, it’s only temporary. Now that the matter is over, everyone will return to their original positions. There’s no difference from before. Don’t worry,” Xia Wen said to comfort her.

The truth was this matter did not end so smoothly. Although Su Rui had received the death sentence, the Xia family’s collective strike this time round had caused a huge commotion. It was not only the Xia family members who had gone on strike, but even the other prominent families who were on good terms with the Xia family went on strike at the same time, causing a very detrimental impact on the military.

The superiors had a meeting on this and they decided to deduct half a year’s salary from all the Xia family members as a warning to others. The eldest son’s family was not affected by this, but it was not the same situation for the

others. Xia Mao had to compensate the rest of them for the loss of income before the issue was settled.

“That’s good to hear. Xia He and I will be out celebrating. Remember to call me if you need anything,” Qiao Mei said.

“Go ahead. Everything is fine at home.” Xia Wen hung up after saying that.

That night, the entire town was very happy. They had not gathered together for a long, long time. During the recent few years, every family had to be more thrifty. In the past, when the farm was still operational, everyone did quite well for themselves. Every year, during the new year, the entire town would hold a big celebration. Later on, when the farm closed down, many of them lost their jobs and life was quite tough for a long time,

The next day, everyone woke up and went to work on time except for Qiao Meie She curled up under her blanket and refused to get up. The winter here was really too cold, even colder than the winter in the capital. She did not want to go to school at all. It was very difficult for her to even walk out the front door.

“Qiao Mei! If you don’t head to school soon, you’ll be late for afternoon cla.s.s!” Xia He shouted towards Qiao Mei’s room.

Qiao Mei said aggrievedly, “Alright… I know…”

Perseverance equated to victory! When it was winter break, she could sneak out to look for Xia Zhe! She wondered if he missed her after not seeing her for so long.

She had already discussed this with Xia Zhe. After he found out about all the details after Su Rui’s trial, he secretly got his subordinates to send a letter to her. He could not wait to see her again.

The two of them agreed that during the winter break, Xia Zhe’s trusted aides would go to the airport to personally pick her up and drive her to the villa. They would keep a low profile along the way. This villa was also not the previous one, but a new house which Xia Zhe bought.

There was still a month to go before the winter break. Qiao Mei went to school diligently every day and on weekends, she headed to the farm to take a look at the crops and the livestock. Time pa.s.sed quickly and it was finally the last day of school. The moment Qiao Mei returned home, she started to pack her luggage. She could not wait!

“Where are you going!” Xia He asked curiously.

“I’m going out to have fun! It’s finally the winter break! I want to go out and have some fun!” Qiao Mei said excitedly..
