"Of course. Everyone in the Xia family knows how to drink. The best drinkers are Grandfather and Eldest Uncle, followed by Eldest Cousin! Guess who's the best drinker among the girls?" Xia Wan said.
"I think it's Xia You," Qiao Mei said.
Xia Wan shook her head and said with a smile, "Actually, it's me! I am only second to Grandfather! Xia Wen and I are probably on par."
The two of them had a long chat. Xia Wan told many stories about her and her siblings growing up. It was not until dawn that Xia Wan could not hold back her fatigue and fell asleep on the sofa.RêAd lateSt chapters at novelhall.com Only
Qiao Mei picked up the newspaper again. Last night, whatever Xia Wan said about Xia Zhe being in a meeting was not true because it was reported in the newspaper that the meeting had ended four days ago. However, Xia Wan did not lie to her on purpose. She just did not understand what was written in the articles. Not everyone could read between the lines. At this moment, Xia Zhe was probably with that beautiful blonde woman.
"You already know," Gao Long said as he stood silently behind Qiao Mei.
"Yes, I already know. You must have tried to call Fang Chen," Qiao Mei asked with a smile.
"Yes, I did. I also got someone to investigate him, but they found no traces. I have to admit that Fang Chen is much more capable than me. It's not easy for me to find out anything about him, but I know one thing... Their wedding date is already fixed. Jessica wants to hold the wedding in Country K and Fang Chen has even rented an ancient castle for the event," Gao Long said.
Qiao Mei clenched the newspaper in her hand and said furiously, "I want to go and look for him now."
He Ning smiled. Qiao Mei was still as sharp-tongued and disdainful of him as ever. However, he was still quite lucky. This hotel was very popular. Whether it was the hotel rooms upstairs or the restaurant downstairs, they were all packed. At this moment, there were no empty seats in the entire restaurant.
"Stop trying to find a table and just sit here. I'll treat you to a meal," He Ning said.
"You want to give me a treat? Are you so kind?" Qiao Mei said disdainfully.
"We can be considered to be from the same hometown. I'm happy to meet someone from my hometown in a foreign country. It's my treat today. You can order whatever you want!" He Ning said generously.
Qiao Mei did not reject He Ning's invitation. Although the He family and the Xia family were like fire and water, He Ning would not do anything to harm her in public as he cared about his reputation! He could not stand being embarrassed!
Qiao Mei called the waitstaff to come over and ordered all the most expensive dishes on the menu. There was not even enough space on the table to place all the dishes. The waitstaff asked apologetically, "I'm really sorry, but we don't have a bigger table. Can we serve some of the dishes later?"
"There's no need to serve them to us. Just give them to the other guests. We can't finish the food anyway," Qiao Mei said without looking up.
"It's fine. The He family can still afford this," He Ning said as he looked at Qiao Mei.
Qiao Mei picked up a napkin to wipe the corners of her mouth and said, "I know, so I also ordered four bottles of expensive red wine and told them to send the wine to my car. Thank you for your hospitality, Boss He."
Before He Ning could speak, Qiao Mei stood up and left. She did not have many friends in Sky City. Now that she could not get in touch with Xia Zhe, she could only go to Bella's place to ask her for information.
