Chapter 1297 Multifunctional Wheelchair



"Qiao Mei! Qiao Mei! Something's wrong! Something bad has happened!" Zhou Shuang said as she ran panting into the courtyard.

"What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry? Did something big happen?" Qiao Mei asked curiously.

"Oh, Xia Zhe is at home too! Both of you should hurry over to our place to take a look. We caught Huang Xu's wife stealing, but she won't admit to it no matter what! I want to talk to you first and see if we can resolve it in private. If not, then we'll have to call the police," Zhou Shuang said.

Qiao Mei knew what Zhou Shuang meant by saying that. She was trying to protect the couple's reputation. She patted Xia Zhe's hand and he understood what she meant. He put away the stool under Qiao Mei's feet and moved the two small side tables to one side. After everything was cleared away, Zhou Shuang realized that the rocking chair that Qiao Mei was lying against had become a wheelchair. Qiao Mei was actually sitting in a wheelchair!

"Mei Mei, what... what happened to you?" Zhou Shuang asked fearfully.

She had not heard of anything happening to Qiao Mei. Moreover, Li Gui was someone who could not keep any secrets. If something really happened to Qiao Mei, they would have been able to get hints from Li Gui's every word and action. Could it be that even Li Gui did not know about this?

She did not even know that Qiao Mei was sick and was even causing trouble for Qiao Mei at this time. She now felt that she was really too much!

"I'm fine, Auntie Zhou. It's just that I'm too lazy to walk, so I ask Xia Zhe to push me around. I'm in good health!" Qiao Mei said with a smile.

This chair was a gift from the grandfatherly neighbor next door. The old couple were both senior technicians and had spent all their money on buying all kinds of materials. They did not have the money to buy gifts for Qiao Mei's two children, so they made some toys for the children, as well as this multifunctional wheelchair for Qiao Mei to rest in.

Qiao Mei liked this gift very much and even gave them a bottle of 100-year-old medicinal wine in return.

On the way to the courtyard, Xia Zhe and Qiao Mei chatted happily. It was as if they were not at all concerned with what was happening to Sun Juan and the rest. Zhou Shuang had no idea how Qiao Mei felt about the whole issue.

When she came over to look for Qiao Mei, her thought was that since Qiao Mei had supported them previously, she would definitely help them again now. However, she did not consider the fact that Huang Xu and Pu Tao were Xia Zhe's friends! Comparatively, how deep was their friendship with Qiao Mei? It was at best superficial!

Qiao Mei definitely had to respect her husband. After all, Zhou Shuang and Sun Juan were just Qiao Mei's employees and were dispensable. They were the ones who needed Qiao Mei, not the other way round. Thinking of this, Zhou Shuang now felt completely uncertain.

Before they entered the small courtyard house, they could all already hear Pu Tao yelling and shouting. The words coming out of her mouth were unimaginably vulgar and the main door was packed with people who had come to watch the commotion.

"Hey everyone, make way for me. Let me go in and take a look," Qiao Mei shouted.

The moment Sun Juan heard Qiao Mei's voice, she immediately stood up arrogantly like a rooster which was ready to fight. However, when she saw Qiao Mei in a wheelchair, her mind was only filled with thoughts about Qiao Mei's health. The current argument suddenly became not important at all.

"Qiao Mei, what's wrong with you?" Sun Juan asked worriedly.

"I'm fine, I'm fine! I just have nothing better to do and want to try out with this wheelchair," Qiao Mei said.n0vELusb.c0M

"Qiao Mei! You have to uphold justice for me! I can't let her accuse me so unjustly for no reason!" When Pu Tao saw Qiao Mei, it was as if she had seen her family member. She quickly rushed over and hugged Qiao Mei's leg as she complained.

Qiao Mei did not speak immediately. Instead, she looked around and stared at the grass patch in the corner of the house. She activated her energy and looked through the grass patch's memories, going through everything that had happened in this house during the past week.

She then secretly injected her energy into the roots of the grass. The roots kept growing underground and very quickly, she came into contact with the box that Pu Tao had hidden in the room. It was filled with all the things that she had stolen in the past week and there were also many other things that Zhou Shuang and the rest had not discovered yet. It was quite a fruitful harvest.

This way, Qiao Mei already knew roughly what had happened and would not wrongly accuse either party.

"Since you want me to uphold justice for you, are you willing to let me have full authority to handle this matter?" Qiao Mei looked at Pu Tao and asked gently.
