Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In Liu Fen’s eyes, Kong Lu was the aggrieved party. Thus, Liu Fen tried her best to please Kong Lu so that he would not blame Xia He.

Xu Lan sat at the side and did not say a single word. She understood the whole issue and knew what kind of person Kong Lu was. Although he did not commit any mistakes, his inaction was a problem.

“I’ll go look for Xia He,” Kong Lu said as he stood up awkwardly.

After greeting Xu Lan and Zhou Hua, he hurriedly ran off with his luggage.

“Why is this child in such a hurry? He didn’t even eat breakfast.” Liu Fen looked at Kong Lu’s back and sighed.

Kong Lu had never been to Xia Fang’s house and did not know where it was, but he knew where the Xia family’s ancestral home was. Back then, he had fetched Xia He from there during their wedding. At that time, Wu Min was still alive and both Xia Wen and Xia He held their weddings at the Xia family’s old house.

Qiao Mei and Xia Zhe had already gone to the courtyard house to help pack up. There were many things that required supervision during the construction process. Qiao Mei also wanted to give her ideas about making some changes to the house.

Kong Lu asked around the neighborhood based on his memory and finally arrived at the courtyard house. As soon as he entered, he saw Xia Zhe and Xia Wen supervising the work, and there was an unfamiliar woman standing beside them.

“What are you doing?” Kong Lu asked.

The three people in the courtyard turned to look at Kong Lu. Xia Wen was the first to react and said, “Brother-in-law, why are you free?”

Everyone in the family knew what kind of life Xia He was living in the Kong family. They all felt that Kong Lu was a good-for-nothing and no one was willing to be nice to him.

“Ah… I’m here at the capital for a meeting. I wanted to go to Aunt’s house to look for Xia He, but I only remembered this address, so I came here first to try my luck.” Kong Lu smiled awkwardly.

Xia Zhe walked up to Kong Lu and said, “There are many people here right now. You can wait here and we can catch up at home tonight.”

Xia Zhe’s expression was fierce and cold. If not for the fact that there were too many people and also students around, he would definitely teach this bastard a lesson on the spot.

“Right, right, right…” Kong Lu stood at the door with his luggage and did not dare to enter. Both Xia Zhe and Xia Wen ignored him.

The courtyard fell silent again. Qiao Mei looked at Kong Lu and said, “Brother-in-law? I’m Qiao Mei, Xia Zhe’s wife. Brother-in-law, come in and have a seat. Elder sister will be here soon.”

Kong Lu looked at Qiao Mei gratefully and said, “Alright, alright.”

Qiao Mei stood beside Xia Zhe and gently held his hand as she whispered, “Bear with it first. He just came and there are so many people here. Don’t be angry.”

When Xia Zhe saw how Qiao Mei patiently coaxed him, all his anger dissipated. Kong Lu needed to be in the capital for a while, so he was not in a hurry.

Not long after, Xia He arrived at the courtyard house. As soon as she entered, she saw Kong Lu sitting in the house in a prim and proper manner.

“You’re here.” Kong Lu stood up and stammered.

Xia He nodded but did not say anything. She turned to Qiao Mei and said, “I hope you have not tired yourself out recently?”

“No, I even put on weight!” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“That’s good, then I don’t have to worry,” Xia He said.

She still had to face whatever was coming. Xia He walked to Kong Lu’s side and said, “Let’s go to my mother’s place for dinner tonight. You have to go over since you’re back.”

“Alright, whatever you say,” Kong Lu said.

“Go help Xiao Zhe and the others with some work,” Xia He said.

Xia Wen deliberately asked Kong Lu to go to the doorway to carry the building materials. Those were all real antique bricks. They had actually hired workers to carry the bricks, but now that Kong Lu was here, they could reduce the number of workers.

“Brother-in-law, there aren’t enough people carrying the bricks over there. Go over and take a look. We’re all busy here,” Xia Wen said with a smile.

Kong Lu could only brace himself and go over. He knew that he was not going to have an easy time at the capital this time round, so he just had to endure it for a while.

After Kong Lu left, Xia He stood there and looked at his back in a daze.

“Elder sister, what are you thinking about?” Qiao Mei waved her hand in front of Xia He’s eyes.

“I’m just thinking about how difficult it is to have a chance to see him and how unusual it is to see him under such strange circumstances.” Xia He smiled resignedly.
