Qiao Mei and Xu Lan looked at each other in shock. After that, Xu Lan said, “Are you mistaken? Or perhaps you misinterpret what you heard? Xia You is not that kind of child!”

“I saw it with my own eyes! How can it not be true!” Liu Fen said confidently.

Liu Fen told Xu Lan and Qiao Mei about what she saw. She had originally planned to visit Xia You and Lu Huai at their house to ask them about when they would have some free time. She wanted the entire family to be present to talk about Xia Yuan’s engagement. The couple was always so busy at the company, so she wanted to tell them about this in advance.

Unexpectedly, she saw Xia You and a man tugging at each other outside the front door! She even saw them holding hands! This was such an embarrassment! Ruining the family’s reputation! No one in the Xia family, or even the Liu family, had ever had an affair! No one had even done such a shameless thing!

For the sake of everyone’s reputation, she did not expose Xia You and that man on the spot. However, she was now hopping mad. Lu Huai was such a good person and so outstanding. Now that the couple was living a prosperous life, how could their marriage be affected by such a man!

“I still don’t think Xia You is that kind of person. Second Aunt-in-law, can it be a misunderstanding because of the visual angle?” Qiao Mei asked.

“Impossible! I saw it with my own eyes! They definitely held hands!” Liu Fen said.

“But ?but how do you intend to talk to Xia You about this? It’s not easy to raise an issue like this,” Xu Lan said hesitantly.

After all, Xia You was not her child and had nothing to do with the eldest son’s family. Even if Xia You needed to be disciplined, it was not for her or her family to step in.

“I don’t know what to do either, that’s why I have come to look for you. It’s easy if it’s Lu Huai who’s having an affair! I’ll just go and catch him red-handed! If that happens, the two of them can just break up! But the person doing such a shameless thing is my own daughter! I don’t know what to do! I’m too ashamed to stay alive! I’ve let down the ancestors of the Xia family!” Liu Fen said as she wept.

Qiao Mei had planted a new willow tree in her backyard. Although it did not look very big, its roots had already grown outwards, spanning a radius of five kilometers. Qiao Mei quietly made use of the willow tree to look at the memories of the plants near Xia You’s house.

What she saw was exactly the same as what Liu Fen had described! However, there were not many plants around Xia You’s house and she could not see Xia You’s expression. She could only see two people tugging at each other.

“Second Aunt-in-law, don’t be anxious. I think ?I think Xia You must have her own reasons. She’s definitely not that kind of person,” Qiao Mei advised.

“That’s right. Besides, it’s useless for you to be anxious about the children’s issues. The children and grandchildren have their own lives to live. No matter what you say about their issues, they won’t listen to you,” Xu Lan said.

“Sister-in-law, I know what you’re saying, but Lu Huai is such a nice kid! Sigh ?how can our family let the Lu family down!” After saying that, Liu Fen turned her gaze to Qiao Mei and said, “Mei Mei, please help me. Given my position, it’s really not easy for me to talk to Xia You about this. The two of you get along quite well. If you ask her, she will definitely tell you!”

Qiao Mei hesitated, not knowing if she should agree to do this. Liu Fen immediately grabbed Qiao Mei’s hands and said, “Take it that Second Aunt-in-law is begging you! Please help me!”

“Second Aunt-in-law, don’t say that! How about this, I’ll get my subordinates to find out who that man is,” Qiao Mei said.

“No way! In that case, news of this matter will get out! Absolutely not! I’ll ask Xia You to come here tomorrow. I’ll tell her that I’m sick and resting at your house, and then ask her to come and visit me,” Liu Fen said.

Qiao Mei had no choice but to agree to Liu Fen’s request.

The next day at noon, Xia You rushed over and said, “What happened to my mother? What happened! Why didn’t she go to the hospital!”

Qiao Mei pulled Xia You into the study and closed the door tightly. “Second Aunt-in-law is fine. She tricked you into coming here.”

“Tricked me into coming here? Why? Can’t she just call me if she needs anything? Instead of all this cloak-and-dagger stuff,” Xia You said in puzzlement.

Qiao Mei sat down on the chair, not knowing how to raise the issue. Xia You looked at Qiao Mei and asked, “What’s wrong? Do you need to talk to me about something?”

“Sigh ?you ?you don’t like Lu Huai anymore?” Qiao Mei asked.

“I don’t like Lu Huai anymore? You must be joking. Lu Huai and I were already sure about our feelings for each other when we were in school. The two of us did not meet through matchmaking. We fall in love on our own. Of course I like Lu Huai!” Xia You said.

“Then what’s up with that man from yesterday?” Qiao Mei asked with a slight frown.

Xia You fell silent all of a sudden. She sat on the chair like a mute and did not speak, and also started looking flustered.
