The next morning, just as Qiao Mei had expected, An Xin had a worried expression on her face as she pulled Xu Lan and Liu Fen into the living room for a chat. Xia Chu sat obediently beside them.

“Mei Mei! You have come at the right time! Have a chat with your younger cousin, Xia Chu!” An Xin shouted at Qiao Mei as she stood on the stairs.

Qiao Mei sighed. She did not expect to have to be a matchmaker one day! This could be a new business for her. Perhaps she could set up a matchmaking company to help these single men and women!

“Hello, Xia Chu. I’m Xia Zhe’s wife. Based on the family hierarchy, you can address me as Third Cousin-in-law,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“Hello, Third Cousin-in-law,” Xia Chu said earnestly.

“Let’s go to my study and have a chat there.” After saying that, Qiao Mei walked upstairs. Xia Chu followed closely behind her while An Xin and the rest watched them leave with anticipation.

After they entered the study, Qiao Mei sat down by the window and made tea for Xia Chu. He did not stand on ceremony and sat down opposite her, waiting quietly. However, she did not raise the issue of blind dates with him at all.

After a long silence, Xia Chu said, “Third Cousin-in-law, aren’t you going to ask me anything?”

“No, I won’t. I’m not good husband material and I won’t be able to bring her happiness. I enjoy being on my own. Third Cousin-in-law, I mean what I say,” Xia Chu looked at Qiao Mei and said firmly.

Qiao Mei looked out of the window and started to feel melancholic. She knew Xia Chu’s reasoning now, but how was she going to explain it to Aunt? This was information that was hard to report back!

“Third Cousin-in-law, what are you thinking about?” Xia Chu asked.

“I’m wondering if your mother will believe me if I say that it’s because you’re not functional in that aspect,” Qiao Mei said as she looked at Xia Chu hopelessly.

Xia Chu looked at Qiao Mei and fell silent. He definitely cared about his reputation, but if they did not use this reason, what other excuse could he use to persuade An Xin not to arrange any more blind dates for him?

After a long silence, Qiao Mei and Xia Chu reached a consensus. Since it was only family members who would hear about this and they would not go out and spread the information around, it was not a big deal to use this as an excuse.

Xia Chu was already transferred to work in the capital’s military district. He left and drove to the dormitory in the military compound to put his things. Qiao Mei went to the ground floor to face An Xin and the rest.

“Did he tell you? What exactly is the reason?” An Xin asked nervously.

“Xia Chu, he ?he ” Qiao Mei said hesitantly.

“It’s fine! Tell Aunt the truth! We’re all family!” An Xin said.
