The farm was expanded bit by bit and Qiao Mei’s business became more and more prosperous. She hired many unemployed people in the town and improved everyone’s lives. The town residents looked happy and smiled a lot more nowadays.

Every time Qiao Mei made her way home, the neighbors would come up to her and pass her all kinds of gifts, usually food made by them. Everyone wanted to express their gratitude to Qiao Mei.

“l guess we don’t have to cook again tonight?” Xia He sat in the living room and asked with a smile.

“That’s right. Look at all these things. There’s apple pie, pizza, roast chicken, fries and so much fried chicken. I think we don’t need to buy groceries anymore. We can just take a walk around the town every day and we’ll have food to last us the entire day,” Qiao Mei said resignedly.

“That’s great. We can save money that way!” Xia He said.

“It’s all because all of you keep using the cars. Otherwise, I won’t need to walk home! I also won’t have to meet so many neighbors. I think all of you do this on purpose! No more next time! It’s not easy for everyone to earn money. Moreover, they’re our customers and yet they still give us food. We’re really going overboard here,” Qiao Mei said.

When it was time for class in the afternoon, Qiao Mei walked back to school through the alley. When she passed by the cafe along the way, she saw a familiar figure.

Su Rui.

Qiao Mei did not stop walking. She only glanced at Su Rui from the corner of her eye and continued walking back to school. Why was Su Rui here? Should she not be by Xia Zhe’s side? Or rather, she should be completing her mission by staying at Yang ‘Tian’s side. What was she doing at the main entrance of the agricultural university? Could it be that Su Rui had other missions here?

That night, Xia Zhe had sent Su Rui to a nondescript hotel. From that moment on, she decided to investigate Qiao Mei’s identity thoroughly. She wondered what kind of charm this woman had to make Xia Zhe make an exception for her.

She had an extravagant lifestyle and did not have the habit of saving money. She used Xia Zhe’s credit card to pay for all her expenses. Xia Zhe had already canceled her card and announced publicly that he had broken up with her. She did not have any source of income, so she found a job near the agricultural university, working as a waitress in a cafe. At the same time, she could also take her time to observe Qiao Mei.

Qiao Mei had no way to communicate with Xia Zhe at the moment. Her current identity was quite an awkward one. If Su Rui exposed her as Xia Zhe’s wife, it would cause issues for Xia Zhe. If she took the initiative to contact Xia Zhe, it might also make Yang Tian suspicious of Xia Zhe.

Since Su Rui had already made an appearance in front of her, she would take it one step at a time and see if Su Rui was targeting her or just here to carry out a mission.

Su Rui found out about the small town where Qiao Mei’s family lived. She took the bus to the town while Qiao Mei was at school. The town spanned quite a big area and she did not know where to start looking. Fortunately, Qiao Mei was quite famous in the area. The moment Su Rui asked around, someone immediately told her where Qiao Mei’s house was located..
