Chapter 926: Going Home to Spend Time With Mother

Xia Wen held onto the cabinet and stood up with some difficulty. He began to pack up his daily necessities, his work documents and a few sets of formal suits. He was actually very busy recently. He had just taken office and there was going to be a big reorganization at work happening at the end of the year. There were many things that he had to check and redo.

Staying at home and looking at Tan Jing made him feel annoyed. He thought that it would be better for him to go back to Xu Lan’s place to stay for a couple of days. It was also closer to his workplace and would be more convenient for him to go to work. At the same time, he could also spend more time with Xu Lan.

“What are you doing!” Tan Jing rushed forward and shouted as she grabbed Xia Wen’s hands.

“I’m going back to Mother’s place to stay for a few days. I’m very busy at work these days. You stay at home and rest well.” Xia Wen ignored Tan Jing and continued to pack his things.

Xia Wen did not have many items and it did not take him long to pack. He did not say a word to Tan Jing before he left the house. Tan Jing sat alone in the empty house and started to feel afraid. She began to reflect on whether she had really done something wrong. Could it be that Xia Wen had decided to divorce her?

Back in the early days when she did not manage to get pregnant, although the Xia family did not outrightly blame her, she had a feeling that the Xia family members must have spoken to Xia Wen in private about the matter. Back then, Xu Lan had even asked her indirectly if she needed Xia Fang to help her improve her health. All of them seemed to think that the problem lay with Tan Jing.

At that time, Xia Wen had told her that he would definitely not consider a divorce and that apart from death, there was nothing that could separate the two of them. Was he going to go back on his word now?

Tan Jing lay on the bed and wailed loudly, causing the neighbors to open their doors one after another and look towards her house curiously. Usually, the occupants of this house were the most harmonious and quiet people. Why did they have such a huge fight today?

“What happened? Why is she crying like this?” a neighbor, an older woman, asked curiously as she looked at another neighbor.

“We don’t know either. This is the first time I’ve heard them arguing!” the woman next door said.

All of them slowly approached Tan Jing’s door and listened carefully to what was going on inside. The wails stopped after a while. They thought that she must be tired from crying and had fallen asleep.

“Do you think it has got to do with the issue of kids? I heard that they’ve been married for almost 10 years and still don’t have any children,” the woman next door said.

The older woman replied agitatedly, “It’s possible! I’ve lived here for so long and can confirm that they don’t have kids! This man is really a nice person. He can accept the fact about not having children. I heard that he’s from a rich family!”

The neighbors gossiped for a while before going home.

For the past two days, Old Madam Fan had been sick. Su Yang had to go to work at the factory during the day and take care of Qiao Yu at the clinic at night, so he did not have the time to go and cause trouble for Li Gui. Her family enjoyed peace and quiet for the past two days.

Xia He came back happily with a huge bag in her hand and it looked very heavy. Li Gui quickly put down the corn in her hand and took it from Xia He. “Xiao He, what did you buy? Why is it so heavy!” Li Gui and Xia He laboriously carried the bag into the house.

Xia He said resignedly, “You have to ask your daughter! She’s the one who asked me to buy these! I’m so tired from the journey. My brother’s driver refused to send me back!”

Qiao Mei walked out of her room slowly. She was almost due to deliver and she needed to go to the toilet frequently every day. She found it tiring to roll over in bed. With a belly bigger than a watermelon, she felt tired after walking for even a short while.

In the beginning, these two babies did not make things so difficult for her. Also, even though she could manipulate energy, it could not save her from the painful process of being pregnant.

“What good stuff is this? Is this what you went out to get? When did I ask you to buy something?” Qiao Mei asked in puzzlement.

Xia He stood in front of Qiao Mei with her hands on her hips and said angrily, “Pagers! There are 10 pagers here! Do you know how difficult it is for my brother and I to get you these 10 pagers? Everyone is asking my brother if his family is going to open a shop selling digital products, why else would he need so many otherwise.”

Qiao Mei was so amused that she laughed out loud. She also knew that she had bought too many, but it was ridiculous for these people to say that they were opening a shop. Even if they had the money to open a shop, they would not dare to do so. It was considered a serious crime during this time..
