After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

973 Owe a Feast

The people around him were afraid of being implicated and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Qiao Mei did not intend to lodge a report against this man. Perhaps there would be people in the crowd who would do it for her in order to uphold “justice”.

“Aunt, the doctor is waiting for you inside to discuss the results. You can go ahead. Elder sister and I will wait for you at the next checkup spot,” Qiao Mei said.

After what happened, Xia Fang still felt a sense of lingering fear. She had witnessed how the man wanted to go forward and harm Qiao Mei. If Qiao Mei did not have any bodyguards by her side, the whole situation might have turned disastrous. She had thought that the hospital was a very safe place. Nothing major had ever happened in all her years working here.

It seemed that danger lurked around every corner.

Xia He could tell that Xia Fang was feeling worried. She looked at Xia Fang and said, “Aunt, don’t worry. I’ll bring Qiao Mei to the next checkup spot. Nothing will go wrong.”

“You must check carefully and see if there are any suspicious people nearby. Maybe we should get another two more bodyguards. There’s no harm for us to wait a while. It won’t take them too long to come over,” Xia Fang said worriedly.

Qiao Mei quickly rejected Xia Fang’s idea. It was already eye-catching enough to have two bodyguards following her around. If they increased the number of bodyguards, she did not know what others would say about her. It would be bad if she caused unnecessary trouble for Xia Zhe.

Now that she had no way of contacting Xia Zhe, she did not want to cause any trouble for him or take any risk.

“Don’t worry, Aunt. That man has already caused such a big scene today. No one else will dare to do anything to me,” Qiao Mei said.

Xia Fang reluctantly believed what Qiao Mei said. After instructing Xia He on many things to take note of, she went into the room to look at the results while Xia He brought Qiao Mei to the next checkup spot.

“Sigh…” Xia He sighed quietly with a serious expression on her face. She suddenly felt so powerless because she was unable to protect Qiao Mei.

“What’s wrong? Why are you sighing?” Qiao Mei turned around and asked.

Xia He felt a little remorseful. Ever since Qiao Mei and Li Gui moved to the capital, there had been an endless stream of threats to their safety. They continued to face danger even under the protection of so many people. Were all these incidents just accidental or was someone deliberately setting them up?

She was not smart enough to deal with such things. All the family’s issues were always handled by Xia Wen, but she also did not dare to call Xia Wen recently. His life was also in a mess. Tan Jing would phone Xia Wen at Xu Lan’s house every day to ask him when he was going home. It made Xu Lan very frustrated during this period of time. Whenever she heard the phone ringing, she would almost lose her temper.

“I’m fine. I’m just thinking about how eldest brother is doing. I haven’t spoken to him in a long time,” Xia He said sadly.

It was only at this moment that Xia He realized how well Xia Wen had protected her. In the past, she suffered in silence when the Kong family treated her badly. Xia Wen would take the initiative to call her up to chat with her and counsel her. She had always been the little girl who hid behind her eldest brother and this fact had never changed even after so many years.

Qiao Mei had not seen Xu Lan for a long time. She decided to go back to Xu Lan’s place to stay for the night after the checkup. At the same time, she could also pass them the pagers she had bought for them. If it was convenient for Xia Fang, she also wanted Xia Fang to stay over at Xu Lan’s place to brief Xu Lan about the results of today’s checkup. That would let Xu Lan feel at ease as well.

“Eldest brother knows how to handle his own issues. Don’t worry about him. If he can’t handle it, he will call us,” Qiao Mei said.

She only needed to speak to He Ning and she would be able to buy more than 80 courtyard houses like what she owned. Xia Wen’s current problem could be easily solved. However, this was not what Xia Wen wanted. In addition, Qiao Mei did not want to poke her nose into other people’s business, in case it made everyone look bad in the end.

By the time she finished with the checkup, it was almost nighttime. After a long day, Qiao Mei could finally have a hot meal. However, it was not at the big restaurant that Qiao Mei was hankering for, but at the hospital cafeteria.

“That’s letting you off too easily. You must remember that you owe me a feast!” Qiao Mei pouted and said grumpily.
