Chapter 1568 Take It as Having a Dog
Qiao Yu did not go to a hotel. She could not bear to spend so much money. The steps outside Qiao Mei's house were very wide and long and there was no issue for her to make do here for a night. In the past, she could even sleep in the bullpen. Sleeping on some steps was nothing.
As long as she could complete the mission the Du family gave her, she could sleep wherever she wanted in the future! She could sleep on the most expensive bed! Moreover, in the future, there would be countless men like Xia Zhe who would fall for her.
The next morning, Xu Kang had to go to the market to buy groceries. When she opened the door, she saw Qiao Yu lying outside. She was so frightened by the sight that she did not even dare to breathe loudly and quickly closed the door.
"Sister Li! Bad news! There's someone lying outside the main door!" Xu Kang ran to Li Gui's side in fear and whispered.
It was no wonder that Xu Kang was so frightened. In the other town, Qiao Yu only ate steamed buns and pickled vegetables every day and could not afford any meat. She was plump and healthy when she left the capital, but lost a lot of weight with such a diet.
Li Gui frowned slightly. She did not expect Qiao Yu to sleep at their door for the night. The stone steps were so cold and hard that Li Gui would even feel sorry for a beggar who had to sleep there.
"I'll go take a look. Help me take care of Qiao Mei." Li Gui went to the door and took a deep breath before slowly opening it. It was really Qiao Yu outside the door, but she was already awake. She was awoken just now when Xu Kang closed the door.
"Sister-in-law! Just let me stay here! I don't want anything in return! I can do all kinds of chores. You just have to feed me!" Qiao Yu said agitatedly.
Qiao Yu, who had not eaten for one day and one night, was now very pale and could not even stand properly. She looked like she would collapse when the wind blew. Li Gui really could not bear to see her like this. In any case, she just needed a meal. There were so many guards in the courtyard and nothing could go wrong. She would just take it that she was caring for a dog.
Li Gui brought Qiao Yu into the courtyard and asked her to sit obediently in one corner. Li Gui told her not to do anything and to just sit there and someone would bring her food in a while.
Qiao Mei shook her head helplessly inside the room. Last night, she had wanted to praise Li Gui for being more perceptive of people, but Li Gui had again "showed her true colors" this morning.
The art troupe now treated Xia He like a treasure. Ever since Xia He's musical performance was a huge success, Xia He was given the choice to pick what she wanted to do. It was not a big deal even if Xia He did not go to clock in at work now.
With Qiao Mei not feeling well during this period of time, she decided to take a few days off to relax and also to spend more time with Qiao Mei.
As soon as she entered the house, she caught sight of a person squatting in the corner. When she took a closer look, she was shocked and thought she had seen a female ghost! Qiao Yu's current appearance was indeed a little scary…
"Qiao Mei, do you feel better today? Why is Qiao Yu in your courtyard? How did she get in?" Xia He asked in shock.
Li Gui stood at the side and wrung her hands uneasily as she said, "I let her in. I just find her very pitiful, so I let her squat in one corner. She won't be able to create any trouble."
At least Li Gui still remembered what Qiao Yu had done to Qiao Mei back then. Xia He knew that Li Gui was soft-hearted, but with so many things happening around them now, Qiao Yu's sudden appearance at this juncture meant that she was not here with any good intentions.
"Don't worry, I've already increased the number of guards around the children. Sister Feng also won't leave their side at all during this period of time. Nothing will happen to them," Qiao Mei said.
"If she wants to harm you, she'll be able to find a loophole! It's better to chase her out as soon as possible," Xia He whispered into Qiao Mei's ear with a frown.
"Don't worry, it's actually not a bad thing for her to be here," Qiao Mei said with a smile.
"Are you saying that you already have a plan?" Xia He asked curiously.
"Since we all know that she's here with an ulterior motive, we should let her stay here so that we can keep an eye on her. She'll definitely show her true colors soon. The most important thing is to catch the mastermind. It's not her own idea to return to the capital to plot against me. Even if she wants to, she doesn't have the capability," Qiao Mei said.
"You're right! Then I'll also stay here for the time being. One more person means an extra pair of eyes," Xia He said.
"You should go home. If there are too many people, she won't give herself away. She will only let down her guard when there are fewer people around," Qiao Mei said prudently.
