“Why do you look so dejected? Didn’t I ask you to go and look for Xia He today? How did it go?” Old Madam Kong asked unhappily.
“I didn’t get to see her,” Kong Lu replied softly. He only wanted to return to his room to have some peace and quiet and did not want to answer any of Old Madam Kongs questions.
“You didn’t get to see her? Why not! I made use of so many connections before finding out that Xia He is flying back today! Do you know how much money 1 spent! You useless thing! Now that you have missed this chance, you won’t get another one!” Old Madam Kong shouted agitatedly.
“She’s already married! What can I do!” Kong Lu said.
“So what if she’s married? Can’t she get a divorce even if she is married? She was so fond of you back then that she even left her family for you! As long as you admit your mistake in a proper manner, she will definitely come back to you!” Old Madam Kong said.
Kong Lu smiled mockingly and said, “Back when the two of us got a divorce, was it because of me or you?”
“How can you talk to me like that! I’m your mother! Wasn’t I just trying to teach her how to be a good wife back then? What did I do wrong! Can’t a mother-in-law teach her daughter-in-law a lesson? What kind of logic is this! You’re so disappointing! If not for you, Xia He wouldn’t have left!” Old Madam Kong said angrily.
Kong Lu did not reply. He also needed to take responsibility for what happened back then and could not just blame it all on his mother and younger sister. If he had not ignored everything that was going on and did not empathize with Xia He, why would the two of them get a divorce?
The Xia family’s secret guard came into Xia He’s living room from the back door and whispered, “Miss Xia He, there’s a man sneaking around outside the door. He’s wearing the uniform of Unit 1783 and it looks like he’s from the military.”
Xia He immediately knew that the person outside was Kong Lu. She did not expect him to really come around.
“If he doesn’t take the initiative to come to the door, then don’t worry about it. Let him be,” Xia He said.
“Sure.” After saying that, the Xia family’s secret guard returned to his original position to keep an eye on the surroundings.
Kong Lu looked at the time. It was almost time for work. He looked at the door reluctantly for a long time before leaving. Deng Fan was well aware of this.
Before Qiao Mei left, she put the Xia family in touch with Yao Nian. If they wanted to know anything, they could ask Yao Nian to work on it. Qiao Mei would settle the payment with him once a month.
Deng Fan did not know much about Kong Lu, but he had full confidence in Xia He. He knew that Xia He was not the kind of woman who was fickle-minded. Since she had cut off all contact with Kong Lu, then she must have cut off all ties with him.
“Do you have time? I want to talk to you about some recent events,” Xia He said as she looked at Deng Fan.
Deng Fan pulled Xia He into his arms and said tenderly, “l know what you want to say. I don’t care about anything. I only care about you. You can do whatever you want. I’ll always support you..”
