“It’s nothing, let them be.” Xia Zhe hugged Qiao Mei and went to bed.
Qiao Mei found a comfortable angle and gradually fell asleep.
The Cao family members took turns to shout at the door. They did not believe that Xia Zhe would be able to sleep well if the five of them took turns to keep shouting!
“Xia Zhe! Open the door!”
“Xia Zhe, you’re just leaving us to die!”
“Even if we die, we’re going to die on your doorstep! Open the door!”
Not long after they started shouting, a pebble was thrown out from next door and someone shouted, “Are you done! Why are you shouting in the middle of the night! Stop shouting!”
The Cao family was so frightened that they stood rooted to the ground. Old Master Cao sat on the steps outside Xia Zhe’s house and sighed.
“Let’s go. Let’s look for a guest house,” Cao Da said.
“We don’t have money! Everything at home is gone!” the Cao family’s eldest daughter-in-law whispered.
Cao Da helped Old Master Cao up and walked towards the road. The Cao family’s eldest daughter-in-law could only follow behind and scolded him softly, talking how she had never had a good day after marrying Cao Da.
She said such things a few times a day since something happened to Cao Da, so everyone was used to it.
Cao Da first made arrangements for his family to stay in the guest house and then went to the suburbs alone to look for He Ning. He had to ask He Ning for help on this matter. Only He Ning could help their family now.
He Ning received the news even before Cao Da arrived, but he only knew that Cao Da had dug up his house and caused it to collapse. He did not know that Xia Zhe did not take them in and even chased them away.
The last time he failed, he admitted that he had underestimated his opponent and that was why he did not succeed. This time, it was supposed to be foolproof. He did not expect Cao Da, that idiot, to be able to dig until the house collapsed! What a joke!
“You’re asking me to clean up your own stupid mess!” He Ning said as he pointed angrily at Cao Da who was standing in the living room.
He Ning now hoped that the crystal chandelier hanging from the living room ceiling would fall and smash this idiot to death! He was so incompetent that everything he touched turned to dust! He was as useless as Wang Yong and the others!
“Get lost!” He Ning said as he turned around.
The guards in the house chased Cao Da out. He Ning was not exactly heartless. Before Cao Da left, he even gave him 500 dollars to help his family survive this period of time.
After sending Cao Da away, He Ning could not sit still. He had already sent someone to observe Xia Zhe’s house for a long time, but Xia Zhe actually did not do anything for a week. He Ning thought that Xia Zhe was really calm.
Did Xia Zhe really not know anything, or did he have extraordinary endurance?
He had secretly gotten someone to spread the news about the Cao family to Xia Zhe a week ago. Xia Zhe already knew about it! Yet Xia Zhe chose not to take action even after knowing about it.
“How impressive,” He Ning said, looking out the window.
He Ning looked at the rain outside and said with a smile, “As expected, the person chosen by Old Madam Xia really can’t be underestimated. It’s a pity that Xia Zhe has a fatal weakness. Since ancient times, no man can resist the charms of a beautiful woman.”
Since Xia Zhe did not fall for his trap and even gave him a big gift, he had to return the favor.
He Ning called his attendant over and whispered something in his ear.
“Go,” He Ning said.
“Yes.” The attendant rushed out after receiving the order and disappeared into the night.
At the crack of dawn, there was a big group of people gathered at the main door of Xia Zhe’s house. Qiao Mei and Xia Zhe had just fallen asleep when they were woken up by frantic knocks on the door.
“What is it…” Qiao Mei asked in a daze.
Xia Zhe changed quickly. He went out to take a look and then came back to help Qiao Mei change her clothes.
“These people don’t come with good intentions. Get dressed first, so that you don’t catch a cold,” Xia Zhe said gently.
It was still early in the morning, the rain had just stopped and the dew was heavy. It was easy to catch a cold at a time like this and nothing was more important than Qiao Mei’s health.
“Stay in the house and don’t come out.” Xia Zhe walked out after saying that.
There was a big group of people waiting outside with all kinds of tools. They looked menacing.
“Who are you?” Xia Zhe asked after he opened the door.
The man in front of him looked like the leader of this group of people. He was about 40 years old and looked kind, but was probably a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Looking at the tools his subordinates were holding, Xia Zhe could already guess who they were.
