Xu Chun did not want to confirm this statement in front of so many people. This would undoubtedly cut off any possibility of her marrying into the Xia family! However, if she did not answer Qiao Mei now, it would be even more embarrassing for her.

“Yes!” Xu Chun said through gritted teeth.

“What? I can’t hear you clearly,” Qiao Mei said as she touched her ear.

Xu Chun knew very well that Qiao Mei would not give up if she did not get the answer she wanted today. Xu Chun shouted loudly, “Yes! There’s no relationship between us!”

Qiao Mei nodded in satisfaction and turned around. The people sitting at the table outside the private room were Xu Chun’s colleagues from the Education Bureau. Meng Yuan looked into the room and then shouted, “Everyone, eat and drink your fill! It’s my treat today! Thank you for all your care and concern!”

Xu Chun looked up as her face paled. She did not expect Qiao Mei to go so far. Everyone was trying to steal a look at Xu Chun through the gap in the door.

Xu Chun was good-looking and a sweet talker. Everyone liked Xu Chun and felt that she was a nice person who was innocent and lively. It was only now that they finally saw her true colors. They did not expect her to be so scheming and vicious!

Qiao Mei did not tell Meng Yuan the details of her plan either. She only asked Meng Yuan to invite his colleagues over for a meal. He felt that he must really thank Qiao Mei with a grand gesture for solving this huge problem for him.

No matter how slow-witted Liu Xiao was, she could tell what was going on. Xu Chun had told her about Meng Yuan before and she was very satisfied with him. It was definitely more beneficial for her to have Meng Yuan as her son-in-law than to let Xu Ba marry Li Gui! This was now completely messed up because of Qiao Mei!

“You’re a b*tch! You’re so vicious! I’m going to kill you!” Liu Xiao picked up the kettle on the table and turned to splash the water at Qiao Mei.

Xu Ba was not able to push Qiao Mei away in time, so he rushed forward to shield her. Xu Hang was sitting beside Xu Chun and he suddenly gave Xu Chun a push. This in turn affected Liu Xiao and caused the trajectory of the water to veer slightly off course, but still not enough to avoid splashing on Qiao Mei.

In the end, all the water fell on Xu Ba’s back. Qiao Mei stood rooted to the same spot and did not move. The water in the kettle was not even that hot, so it was not really a big deal even if she got splashed. It was more humiliating than anything else.

In fact, she could easily have dodged it. The reason why she stood there motionlessly was to see if Xu Ba would protect the Xu family members or her at the critical moment. This was the most important thing to her. Only then could she know if Xu Ba would protect Li Gui unconditionally in the future.

When Meng Yuan heard the commotion in the private room, he immediately rushed inside and shielded Qiao Mei behind him. He looked at the Xu family members and roared, “Let’s see who dares to make another move!”

Li Gui rushed in as well. She scanned the Xu family members and then threw the food in her hand at Liu Xiao. She rushed into the crowd, pulled Liu Xiao out of the private room and gave her four hard slaps. Liu Xiao was so dizzy from the beating that she could not fight back.

Li Gui used to do farm work in the past, so she was very strong. For so many years, she had been doing business in the capital and she always did everything herself. Liu Xiao had been living a pampered life in the city for so many years and was definitely not a match for Li Gui.

Xu Tian wanted to stop Li Gui from beating up Liu Xiao, but he did not want to give up his collaboration with Qiao Mei, so he only turned his head and looked away.

“Stop it!” Old Madam Xu shouted angrily.

Qiao Mei grabbed Li Gui’s hand and only then did Li Gui stop beating Liu Xiao up. Her mind was only filled with the thoughts of this woman bullying her daughter. She wanted to avenge her daughter and demand an explanation!

Fortunately, Xu Ba shielded Qiao Mei earlier. If Xu Ba did not make it in time! What would Qiao Mei have to suffer from!

“Mother  she hit me! This woman is Li Gui! She actually hit me!” Liu Xiao covered her face and crouched on the floor as she wept. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. She must chase Li Gui away! She must make sure that Li Gui would not be able to marry into the Xu family!

At the thought of such a shrewish woman marrying into their family and becoming her daughter-in-law, Old Madam Xu could feel a headache coming on. She touched her head and said, “Oh my  I can’t take it anymore  I have a headache  I feel terrible ”

Li Gui finally calmed down. She knew that Old Madam Xu was just putting on an act and she also knew very well how the Xia family would view her actions just now.

Li Gui looked at Xu Ba regretfully. She could accept Xu Ba, but she could not accept the fact that Xu Ba’s family wanted to hurt Qiao Mei. It was no longer possible for the two of them to be together now.

“Old Madam, it must be because it’s too stuffy in the room. I’ll switch on the electric fan for you and improve the air circulation in the room. When the dishes are ready, we can start eating,” Qiao Mei said in a gentle tone.

Xu Hang looked at Qiao Mei in shock. The situation was already so messed up, but Qiao Mei could still remain so calm. This woman was really not an ordinary character. Xu Cai’s disgust for Qiao Mei became even more obvious. She was Xu Ba’s only daughter and she would never allow anyone to affect her position.
