Chapter 1657 Making Things Difficult

Xia He stood at the side and secretly gave Qiao Mei a thumbs up. Mo Zhu almost wanted to clap and cheer for Qiao Mei. Before they left their house, Mo Chou had even promised her that he would definitely show respect to the Xia family later and that dinner would end happily. Who would have thought that Mo Chou would seem to have become a different person after reaching the Xia family residence.

"It's almost time for dinner. Everyone must be hungry. We've prepared food at home. Let's go and eat together," Xu Lan said.

"Is that so? But I'm not that hungry yet," Mo Chou said coldly.

The Xia family members, who had all stood up, now sat back down silently. Xia Jun sat at one side and shook his head quietly. Xia Wen's prospective father-in-law was not an easy man to deal with. Xia Wen would have to gain his trust and admiration before he would let Mo Zhu marry Xia Wen.

It was going to be difficult!

However, he believed that Xia Wen could solve this problem. Who would dare to look down on his grandchildren! They were all so outstanding among their peers! All of them were exceptional! They were all elites within their industries!

Liu Shu secretly pinched Mo Chou and whispered, "What exactly are you doing! Are you trying to embarrass me and our daughter!"

"Um... Xiao Wen, which school did you graduate from?" Mo Chou asked while enduring the pain.

Xia Zhe was reaching out for food at that moment and he paused when he heard that. He glanced sideways at Qiao Mei and smiled. This little girl could lie with such a straight face. Back then, Qiao Qiang liked Xia Zhe very much. If not for the fact that Qiao Mei was a girl and Qiao Qiang wanted Qiao Mei to be with Xia Zhe, Xia Zhe might be Qiao Qiang's god-grandson now.

If Qiao Qiang did not like Xia Zhe, then whatever happened that night would not have happened...

"Actually, I'm also very scared that Xia Wen's mother won't like me," Mo Zhu whispered.

Qiao Mei pointed in Xu Lan's direction and said, "Do you think she doesn't like you from the way she looks at you? She can't let you out of her sight."

Xu Lan had been staring fixedly at Mo Zhu. Mo Zhu was a beautiful girl, but there was something different about her beauty and Qiao Mei's beauty. There was a hint of elegance and dignity about Mo Zhu that made people feel comfortable just from looking at her and drew people to talk to her.

After three rounds of drinking, Mo Chou became a little tipsy. He was not a drinker and would usually get drunk after one glass.

"Brother Xia! You're a pillar of the country! A stabilizing force of the country!" Mo Chou said as he put his arm around Xia Mao's shoulder.

"Is... is this how your father behaves when he has too much to drink?" Qiao Mei looked at Mo Chou in disbelief.

The corners of Mo Zhu's mouth twitched as she said, "Maybe... I also don't expect my father to be such a person?"

"I really don't expect it, but I think your mother is very chatty and gets along very well with my mother-in-law!" Qiao Mei said.

"My mother is retired now and she's been designing clothes nowadays. Women always have endless topics on fashion to talk about. I just wonder if Uncle can handle my father," Mo Zhu said worriedly.
