“What? There’s such a thing? Why is it that no one told me about it when 1 called back?” Qiao Mei asked as she looked at Xia He in shock.

“It’s probably because Auntie doesn’t want you to worry. Our families stay so near one another and Deng Fan goes to your place to freeload on dinner nowadays. He also plays chess with Grandpa Qiao, so don’t worry,” Xia He said.

All the courtyard houses which the Xia family members bought had already been renovated. All the Xia family members had moved into their own courtyard houses and they were all only a few steps away. They gathered together often and would have a meetup every weekend where everyone would make the effort to turn up. Xu Lan had even acknowledged Qian’e as her goddaughter!

The man who was wooing Li Gui was one of the factory’s business partners. For a period of time, Qian’e was in charge of expanding their business in the south and had gone away on a business trip. Li Gui had to handle all the matters in the factory then. It was during this time that they met each other and it was said that he fell for her at first sight.

Qiao Mei did not care about any of this as long as this man treated Li Gui well. What was important was that Li Gui must like the man too. She was an independent adult and had the right to decide on her own marriage.

Recently, Qiao Mei had been busy with her schoolwork and was very focused on her studies. Her results were not very outstanding in school and she made sure that she simply finished all her assignments without doing any extra work. She was worried that if her results were too outstanding, the agricultural university in Country M would not let her leave. She had no interest in doing academic research.

One quiet afternoon, the phone in Qiao Mei’s house suddenly rang. Auntie Zhang picked up the phone and said, “Hello, this is the Qiao family.” “The Qiao family? Isn’t this the Pu family’s phone number?” Gao Lin asked.

“I’m sorry, this is the Qiao family’s house. I’m not sure who the Pu family is,” Auntie Zhang said.

“But this is the phone number I have. Is this the family who runs a farm in the small town? My grandson has even set up a company there,” Gao Lin said.

“Oh, you’re Young Master Gaffs relative. What can I do for you?” Auntie Zhang said.

“I’m already at the small town’s airport but I don’t know your exact address. Can you send someone to pick me up?” Gao Lin said.

“Alright, I’ll discuss it with our young lady. Please stay where you are and don’t move.” After saying that, Auntie Zhang went upstairs to look for Qiao Mei and told her what just happened.

Qiao Mei was stunned. She had forgotten to explain the matter of her name to Gao Lin. She had yet to explain the matter of the children and now she had to explain the matter of her different names. There was no end to it. First, she asked Butler Xu to go to the airport to pick up Gao Lin. Then, she called Xia He and Gao Ming and asked them to come home to welcome him.

When Gao Lin reached the farm, he had the same reaction as Gao Ming. Along the way, he kept praising Qiao Mei for being smart and capable. Gao Ming had written a letter to him to tell him about everything that had happened during this period of time. Otherwise, he would not have gone through so much trouble to come to the small town.

“Granduncle, why didn’t you tell me in advance that you are coming here so that I can arrange for someone to pick you up,” Qiao Mei said warmly.

“Little girl, are you hiding something from me?” Gao Lin asked as he looked at Qiao Mei dotingly.

Qiao Mei scratched her head in embarrassment and said, “There are indeed some things that I have hidden from Granduncle, but I have no choice. My real name is Qiao Mei and Pu Nan is just an alias I used when I went to Sky City. At that time, I went to the casino secretly and had a run in with the young master of the Yang family. I was worried about him looking into my background, so I made up a name.”

“l see. Then what about the children?” Gao Lin then asked.

She did not expect Gao Ming to have told Gao Lin about this. Qiao Mei said hesitantly, “The children… the children are indeed mine. As for their father…” As Qiao Mei spoke, she wiped the corners of her eyes and said sadly, “l feel sad every time this issue is mentioned.”

Seeing this, Gao Lin quickly said, “It’s fine, it’s fine! Granduncle won’t ask about it anymore! Let’s not cry on such a good day! Let’s just live well in the future! ”

Qiao Mei apologized to Xia Zhe a hundred times in her heart. She did not want to do this, but in order to hide Xia Zhe’s true identity and his mission, she had no choice.

At night, everyone gathered together. Gao Lin knew that Qiao Mei had many secrets and he did not want to pry into her private matters. When Qiao Mei was ready to tell him the truth, she would naturally do so. Most importantly, Qiao Mei was his elder sister’s flesh and blood and was a member of his family..
