1324 Be My Stepmother

From the moment Qiao Mei entered the house, Zhao Kai had not stopped staring at her. He had originally thought that Qian’e fitted his idea of a classic beauty, but he did not expect Qiao Mei to be even more beautiful, especially with her full bosom, slender waist and perky butt. It was a sight that made him drool.

Qiao Mei had seen the same kind of look in the eyes of many men too many times and it was clear to her that Zhao Kai was definitely not a good person. It seemed that Qian’e was right. Zhao Fei indeed needed to relook at the kind of people he was working with.

Zhao Fei realized how rude Zhao Kai was and quickly gave him a kick before saying, “This is my younger brother, Zhao Kai. I think you haven’t met him before. He just started working for me recently.”

“No wonder. I’m just thinking that I don’t seem to recall this person,” Qiao Mei said with a faint smile.

“It’s fine, it’s fine! We can get to know each other today! Let’s get along well from now on!” Zhao Kai quickly extended his hand towards Qiao Mei, but she refused to acknowledge his gesture and pretended not to see his hand. Zhao Kai could only retract his hand awkwardly and sit down obediently.

Zhao Kai thought to himself, “What’s there to be so arrogant about! You just have a bit more money than us!”

Li Gui brought out the last two dishes. She had made eight dishes, five of which were meat dishes! She had never done something so grand before and this just showed how highly Li Gui thought of Zhao Fei.

“Sister Li, you’re way too hospitable. There are so many dishes, I don’t even know which one to eat first!” Zhao Fei said embarrassedly.

Li Gui even made some braised meat for them! Zhao Kai’s eyes lit up when he saw the dish. This was a rare delicacy. There was probably no other person in the capital who could make pig offal taste so delicious!

“You address me as sister and yet you also address my daughter as sister. This doesn’t sound right at all. It’s better that you address me as auntie,” Li Gui said with a smile.

“Sure! Then I’ll call you Auntie Li!” Zhao Fei said.

Just as everyone was eating happily, Zhao Kai suddenly said inappropriately, “Auntie Li’s cooking is so delicious. It will be great if she can become my mother! Our entire family will be so happy!”

“What kind of joke is this!” Zhao Fei said awkwardly.

“I’m not joking! If she joins my family, we’ll be able to eat and drink well every day!” Zhao Kai was so excited that he simply blurted out what he was thinking.

Li Gui’s face instantly turned pale. She did not expect Zhao Kai to say something like this. She was already a divorced woman with four young children. It was already good enough that she did not cause trouble for Qiao Mei.

She had already been married twice. If she got married again, the children would feel disgraced! She had no intention of ever getting married again!

Qiao Mei’s face instantly fell and she slammed her chopsticks on the table. She did not expect the Zhao family to have such an intention. No wonder there were so many gifts and this stranger also tagged along. It seemed that Qian’e was very spot-on with her judgment this time.

“Sister Qiao Mei, Auntie Li, that’s not what my younger brother meant... He just... he just has no sense of propriety when he speaks!” Zhao Fei explained in a panic.

However, Zhao Kai remained self-righteous and did not feel that he had said anything wrong. He already had his eye on Li Gui for a while and wanted her to become his mother. What was wrong with that? Moreover, he was not the only one who thought that way. His entire family liked Li Gui and wanted her to quickly marry into the family and become their stepmother!

He did not understand why Zhao Fei was being so cautious, but he did not really blame Zhao Fei. After all, Zhao Fei was not related to his family by blood. He would not expect an adopted child to watch out for their benefits.

“I’m telling the truth. Auntie Li is such a good person. Isn’t it good for her to become my mother? Then we’ll be able to do business together and also be a family from now on! We’ll be even closer!” Zhao Kai said happily.

Qiao Mei did not expect him to be so ambitious. Not only did he want to get Li Gui, but he even coveted their family’s business. What an arrogant person!

“Get out,” Qiao Mei said coldly. n/.ov.el-uSb/c(o)m

“What... what did you say?” Zhao Kai asked in puzzlement, as if he did not hear what Qiao Mei said clearly.

“I told you to get out!” Qiao Mei roared at Zhao Kai.

Zhao Kai still wanted to argue with Qiao Mei, but when he saw the look in Zhao Fei’s eyes, he left Li Gui’s house angrily. Before he left, he even kicked over the stools in Li Gui’s house.

“Mom, you can go to your room first. I want to talk to Zhao Fei,” Qiao Mei said calmly.
