Xia Jun brought Xia Guang to Qiao Mei’s study. The father and son had a heated argument, but it was mainly Xia Jun scolding his son. Xia Guang did not dare to refute him. The fact that Qiao Mei could hear Xia Jun scolding someone even though he was inside a soundproof room was enough to show how angry he was about this matter.
“Grandfather has high blood pressure. Will he get so angry that it leads to a heart attack?” Qiao Mei looked at the study worriedly.
“No, he won’t. Your grandfather has weathered through all kinds of storms. At most, he’ll just get angry and vent his frustration on Third Brother,” Xu Lan said with a smile.
Qiao Mei knew that Xu Lan had not been able to sleep well all night recently and had been waiting for news about Xia He. With the addition of this current matter, she looked exhausted. Qiao Mei poured some medicinal wine into a glass of water and brought it over to her.
“Mother, drink this,” Qiao Mei said firmly.
In order to reassure Qiao Mei, Xu Lan drank all the water in one go. She looked more radiant immediately.
Just as everyone was about to head in for a rest, there was suddenly the roar of a car outside the door and a familiar voice could be heard outside. Everyone thought that it was just an illusion.
In the end, Xia He lay down inside the bus and waited quietly for death to come. She had wanted to give the Deng family a grandchild, but it seemed that this wish would not be able to come true. By the time Deng Fan found her, she was already in and out of consciousness and he had to feed her a full bottle of medicinal wine to save her.
“No matter what, I’m a daughter of the Xia family after all. I have to save the rest. Otherwise, I’ll be letting down our family,” Xia He said proudly.
Xu Lan was furious when she heard the story related by Xia Wen. She raised her hand and slapped Xia He. The slap was not enough to vent her anger and she even kicked Xia He a few times.
Everyone in the room was stunned by her actions. Only Qiao Mei knew how Xu Lan felt at this moment. Being mothers, they only selfishly wanted their children to be well. In a life-and-death situation, they did not care about so many things. As long as their children were safe and sound, they were willing to give up everything.
“Mother is just angry that you gave the medicinal wine to other people. She’s just concerned about you,” Qiao Mei explained.
Tears welled up in Xia He i s eyes. After Xu Lan finished hitting her, she suddenly threw herself into Xu Lan’s arms and wept loudly. On the way back, she did not cry or even feel afraid. However, the moment she saw Xu Lan, she could clearly feel a great sense of fear.
If Xia Wen and Deng Fan did not manage to find her, if they were one step too late, or if she could not make it to the moment she was rescued, then would she be dead and buried in the snow by now?
Thank goodness... Thank goodness everyone was still alive... Thank goodness
she was still alive...
