Chapter 352: It Does Not Matter

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the past, when the house was still in good condition, there was no one living in the house and no one guarding it. It would be a little too obvious if they should get someone to stand guard over it now when the house was dilapidated.

However, if he did not find someone to keep an eye on the place, he was afraid that He Ning would get his men to come back and dig up the things in the courtyard. He Ning would not do these things himself, but he was worried about those people who went to the Cao family’s side to dig around. There were people trying their luck by searching through the wreckage every day.

“It’s fine. If someone wants to dig, let them. Anyway, they won’t make a fuss even if they manage to find anything,” Xia Zhe said.

So many people came to dig inside the house on official business but they did not manage to dig out anything. It would be a slap to Section Chief Chu’s face if any other person managed to find something as soon as he and his team left. Therefore, even if someone really dug out something, they would quietly remove it without saying anything.

Xia Wen nodded. The two of them chatted about how to rebuild the remaining rooms and did not mention the two boxes again.

Qiao Mei looked at Xia Zhe and Xia Wen with some admiration. Xia Wen knew that there was something underground but he did not covet them like Zhou Hua, and Xia Zhe did not have any greed for the things in the boxes. Qiao Mei knew what was in the two boxes. They were a box of priceless old paintings and a box of gold.

When Xia Zhe found these things, he only had three words for them.

It did not matter.

Such an attitude was definitely not something an ordinary person would have. It was no wonder that this courtyard was left to only Xia Zhe. Xia Zhe could feel Qiao Mei’s gaze on him and he turned to look at her. When he saw her looking at him with a look of admiration, an indescribable feeling came over him.

As Xia Wen spoke, he saw that Xia Zhe was not paying attention and followed his gaze to look at Qiao Mei.

He and Tan Jing had fallen in love on their own. Back then, he felt that Tan Jing was liberal and dignified, which was rare for a child from an ordinary family. She was also kind, mature, gentle and responsible. He married Tan Jing very quickly, but the gossip that started in the third year of their marriage had crushed the spirit of such a gentle person.

Tan Jing’s relatives and friends laughed at Tan Jing for not having any children and forced her to give all her money to her maternal family. Otherwise, they would come and cause trouble. As time passed, Tan Jing was no longer the same as before.

Xia Zhe had grown up in an environment where he was used to having money and unimpressed by it. This was the character and upbringing that the Xia family had carefully nurtured in him.

What about Qiao Mei?

Xia Wen had the honor of meeting Qiao Qiang when he was young. Qiao Qiang was not a cultured person and there was nothing outstanding about him, but he was a very upright person.

That same trait was probably in Qiao Mei’s nature as well.

Xia Zhe could tell Qiao Mei’s character after seeing her only once, which meant that his instincts were really sharp.

Both Xia Zhe and Xia Wen looked back at Qiao Mei with admiration. Qiao Mei quickly hid behind the door in embarrassment. They had really misunderstood her. She had never mastered the concept of treating money like dirt in both her two lifetimes and, if anything, she was even more money-minded now.

Ever since she was reborn, all she could think about was how to make money and become so rich that she did not have to worry about anything for the rest of her life. She was able to seem so nonchalant about it now because the money was all hers and no one else could snatch it away. She was not in a hurry to take out all her money and hug it all.

“Let’s stay at Grandpa Zhou’s house for the night,” Qiao Mei said.

“Are you not going back to our parents’ house?” Xia Wen asked curiously.

“I’m thinking about coming here again tomorrow. Grandpa Zhou’s place is nearby, so it’s a good place to stay for the night.” Qiao Mei glanced at Xia Zhe.

Xia Zhe said dotingly, “Let’s ask Grandpa Zhou later.”

“I won’t go with you. I still have to go home,” Xia Wen said with a smile.

They discussed what to do tomorrow and then carried on with their respective lives.

As expected, the courtyard house was not too peaceful at night. Many people came and almost got into fights over their preferred digging spots. In the end, these people who did not know each other came to an agreement and they each chose a spot to start digging.

Initially, Qiao Mei’s ability to use plants from a distance only allowed her to do it within a radius of one kilometer. By now, it had increased to three kilometers. The reason why she wanted to stay in Zhou Sheng’s house was to secretly protect the things in the house from outsiders.

At night, Qiao Mei used plants to protect the boxes before she retracted her energy and went to sleep. Even if those people dug through the entire ground, they would not be able to get to the treasure boxes.
