By the time they completed the entire process, it was already the evening. Qiao Mei was in a hurry to go home and wait for news from Xia Wen but Wu Duo and the others blocked her way.

“Mentor Qiao Mei, we would like to treat you to a meal,” Wu Duo said embarrassedly.

Qiao Mei chuckled and asked, “You used to call me Qiao Mei. Why do you address me as your mentor now?”

“If not for you, the few of us would not have been able to get into a good university. We will remember your kindness forever! We want to treat you to a celebratory meal. Mentor, please come,” Wang Wei said.

Qiao Mei did not have the heart to reject their invitation, so she had no choice but to go for dinner with them. They had decided to be extravagant for once and brought Qiao Mei to the best restaurant in the entire capital. Among the few of them, only Wu Duo and Wang Wei came from middle-class backgrounds and had enough money to pay for their daily expenses.

The other two students’ families found it difficult to even eat meat once a month, but their parents said that even if they could not afford meat or fish for the next five years, they wanted to thank Qiao Mei for helping their children with their studies.

They sat down in the main dining hall of the restaurant and waited to order.

The economy had fully opened up this year, so everyone no longer felt constrained when it came to such activities. People were allowed to host banquets at restaurants and hotels. It was no longer a big deal to be a bit more extravagant.

Qiao Mei did not expect Tan Jing to really marry into the Huang family. After the couple accompanied their relatives and friends upstairs, they came back down and waited at the staircase to welcome more guests. Tan Jing was all smiles, but Huang Quan was not so happy. He wondered how he was supposed to be happy if he did not manage to marry the person he wanted to marry and had to marry a scheming woman who had already been married before.

Tan Jings eyes reddened when she caught sight of Qiao Mei. She hated Qiao Mei so much that she even dreamed of killing Qiao Mei. Huang Quan had already agreed to buy that old house to be their matrimonial home. She had always wanted to live in an old house, just like Qiao Mei. Before Qiao Mei married into the Xia family, Xia Wen clearly had a chance to get that siheyuan courtyard house. Back then, her nightmare had started when Qiao Mei joined the family.

In the end, Huang Quan had perfunctorily bought an apartment for Tan Jing. The floor area of the apartment was only about 80 square meters. It was not even as big as two rooms in the old house!

He only needed a house to keep Tan Jing in. Tan Jing had said that she would allow him to see other women and that she could even help him get Qiao Mei. He could not ask for anything better! Therefore, he simply bought a place for Tan Jing to shut her up. The main thing was to get Qiao Mei. Qiao Mei walked up to the couple and said, “Congratulations.”

“What a coincidence to meet you here. Come upstairs and have a drink,” Huang Quan said excitedly.

“No need, my friends are over there,” Qiao Mei said as she pointed at Wu Duo and the others.

Huang Quan asked ingratiatingly, “Isn’t it the day to submit university applications today? Which university did you choose?”

“Capital University,” Qiao Mei replied honestly. Even if she refused to answer, Huang Quan would be able to find out given his position. It was better for her to be upfront with the information..
