Chapter 2330: Being Stalked
"What's so difficult about that? Find a time when both sets of parents are free, make a reservation at a restaurant and then sit down to talk about the wedding. That's all," Qiao Mei said nonchalantly.
"Sister Qiao Mei, I'm from a broken family. My father and mother each have their own family, so... my family's situation is more complicated," Zhou Xi said honestly.
Qiao Mei sat up immediately. When did this happen? Why was it that I did not know anything about it? The background check done earlier clearly indicated that Zhou Xi's parents were blissful and loving together! This Yao Nian! He could not even do such a simple thing!
Xia Yuan quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "It only happened recently! I don't care about the state of Zhou Xi's family!"
"I didn't say anything. Don't be so nervous," Qiao Mei said calmly.
This matter had become a little difficult to handle. The main thing was to find out what Zhou Xi's parents thought about all this. It was useless for them to fret about it here.
"My idea is... to just go ahead and get married..." Zhou Xi said.
"Absolutely not! Second Aunt-in-law definitely won't agree!" Xia He said immediately.
Liu Fen was very particular about such issues. She only agreed to let Xia Yuan and Zhou Xi get to know each other better after she heard that Zhou Xi had a good family background. If they told Liu Fen about this situation, Liu Fen definitely would not allow Zhou Xi to marry into her family!
"I suddenly feel that this is going to be an uncomfortable meal," Xia Yuan said helplessly as he held his head.
Qiao Mei wanted to ignore the girl and just walk in, but she did not expect Wang Tian to block her way. Wang Tian asked excitedly, "Sister Qiao Mei! Are you still hiring! I want to work here! I can be a waitress!"
"There's no vacancy," Qiao Mei said with a fake smile.
Wang Tian immediately pointed at the girl beside her and said, "But isn't she going home next week to get married and have children? She says that her position is still open!"
The waitstaff immediately blushed. She wanted to explain herself to Qiao Mei, but Wang Tian was telling the truth and it was not something she could refute.
"I don't think so. Don't even think about it. We are not hiring," Qiao Mei repeated.
"Why! I feel that I can do a good job! Just let me try! I can even do it for free! Put me on probation for one month!" Wang Tian said excitedly.
The eldest daughter of the Wang family who owned the famous bun shop wanted to work for Qiao Mei as a waitress. If the Wang family members knew about this, who knew how they would badmouth Qiao Mei behind her back.
"With your qualifications, you can get any job. Why do you have to work here? Don't you think it's a waste of talent?" Qiao Mei said.
"No, no! Look at the guests here! They're all high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the capital! If I can get to know even one or two people here, I'll have more ways to get rich in the future!" Wang Tian said excitedly.
