Chapter 348: Talking Nonsense
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Liang Lan’s expression froze and she was stumped for an answer.
Qiao Mei continued asking, “No one in our village has ever said that I look like my grandfather. Why do you say we look alike? Could it be that you got the wrong person because my grandfather and your father have the same name?”
Everyone present fell silent. Xia Wen held back his laughter while standing at the door and looked at the deflated expressions on the faces of Liang Guo and Liang Lan. At the same time, he was a little shocked by the cute young girl behind Xia Zhe.
He did not expect Qiao Mei to be such a person. Xia Wen could not tell if this was real or just an act.
Liang Guo and Liang Lan, on the other hand, felt that Qiao Mei was very stupid and that it was expected for a girl who grew up in the countryside to be so rude. They were obviously trying to get close to her but she could not tell. How stupid of her!
!!“Ah… don’t you look alike? I think you do though. Maybe it’s because I don’t have my gla.s.ses with me. I just feel that the outlines of your faces look very similar,” Liang Lan said awkwardly.
Qiao Mei’s expression immediately turned serious. It was really hard to deal with such a shameless person.
“Is that so? Then it’s indeed easy to get confused when you can’t see clearly. However, since I was young, I’ve never heard that I have any other relatives. I’ve never seen either of you during the past 10 years and I dare not acknowledge relatives randomly. My apologies,” Qiao Mei said solemnly.
In the end, she was still too young and could not continue with the pretense!
Liang Lan looked at Qiao Mei, who was starting to falter, and said with a smile, “Your grandfather may not have mentioned us, but Chen Hu should have told you about us. You actually know about us, right?”
If not for Chen Hu’s letter, Qiao Mei might have been able to get away with it.
Qiao Mei looked at Liang Guo and Liang Lan and understood that the problem lay with Chen Hu. Back in the village, Chen Hu had asked her to persuade her grandfather to return to the capital to reunite with them. Chen Hu had probably told them about this in his letter.
“Let’s talk inside,” Xia Zhe said coldly.
Since these two people were already here, they were definitely not going to be dismissed so easily. They would definitely not give up until they achieved their goal.
Xia Wen brought everyone to a room that had been cleaned up. The original floor tiles in the house had already been pried up, and Professor Zhu and the students had specially cleaned up a place for them to rest and talk.
After bringing them there, Xia Wen left the room. After all, this was Qiao Mei’s family matter and it was not convenient for him to be there.
Xia Zhe tested the chair for stability before letting Qiao Mei sit down and then placed a soft cus.h.i.+on behind her back. He then stood at the side and looked at Qiao Mei.
When Liang Guo and Liang Lan saw how Xia Zhe treated Qiao Mei, they were overjoyed. The more favored Qiao Mei was in the Xia family, the more advantageous it would be for them. This way, the Xia family would be theirs for the taking.
“How’s your grandfather?” Liang Guo asked.
Qiao Mei looked at Liang Guo but did not answer him.
Liang Lan then asked, “Is your grandfather feeling better? Has he gotten better?”
“When did you find out that my grandfather was sick?” Qiao Mei asked as she looked at Liang Lan coldly.
“Erm… maybe about a year ago,” Liang Lan replied.
Qiao Mei suddenly laughed and said, “That’s really interesting. It’s only been a few months since my grandfather found out that he was sick. You actually knew it earlier than my grandfather. Could it be that you’re a prophet?”
Liang Lan and Liang Guo looked back at her coolly and did not know what to say. This Qiao Mei kept talking back to them. She really did not have any manners and did not know how to respect her elders.
Xia Zhe almost suffered internal injuries from trying to hold back his laughter. This young girl was sharp-tongued and said the meanest things with the cutest expression and sweetest voice. She even looked cute while doing it. Only Qiao Mei would be able to do such a thing.
“I only heard that he had a small problem at first and later found out that he was seriously ill,” Liang Lan said.
Qiao Mei wanted to retort, but she did not say anything. Back then, when Qiao Qiang found out that he was sick, he did not tell anyone. It was only when she went out to seek treatment for him that everyone found out that her grandfather was sick.
There was no need to delve into these matters. The real question at hand was why they had come to look for her.
“Who told you that I’m here?” Qiao Mei asked the two people.
Liang Lan did not know if she should say it or not. Seeing that Liang Guo did not speak, Liang Guo deliberated for a long time before finally saying, “He Ning told us.”
He Ning again.
Xia Zhe had a fierce look in his eyes when he looked at the two people now.
