Chapter 1130 - 1130 Notifying the Parents

1130 Notifying the Parents
In the past, Xu Lan would always blame her daughter at the first instance. She did not care about her daughter’s reputation or the truth of the matter at all. She only knew that she must keep a distance from any trouble and that there was never anything wrong with being humble and cautious. The Xia family was rich and powerful. Even if they were in the right, people could still make them out to be bullying others who were weaker. Therefore, to avoid that, it was inevitable that they had to suffer some grievances.

Ever since Xia He was young, she suffered a lot from Xu Lan’s way of handling things.

After Xu Lan arrived at Qiao Mei’s house, she went to the main hall to look for them. It was a good thing that they were both already awake and doing embroidery.

“Mother? Why are you here?” Xia He asked curiously.

“I received a phone call from the art troupe. How can I not come and find out what actually happened?” Xu Lan looked at Xia He as if she expected better behavior from her.

Qiao Mei was also lost and confused. Xia He did not tell her in detail about this matter, but she did know that Xia He had gotten into a fight with someone in the military art troupe.

“She’s already a grownup, yet she notifies my parents about our issue. She really doesn’t find herself an embarrassment. Does she really think she’s still a child!” Xia He said angrily.

“Don’t talk about others. Hurry up and tell me how this happened. I have my own way of explaining it to them. Otherwise, even if I want to go and kick up a fuss, I don’t have any reason to do so,” Xu Lan said.

Xia He told Xu Lan the full story, including the details of how Yang Xin fell. She even wanted to demonstrate it to Xu Lan there and then.

Xu Lan quickly stopped Xia He from doing anything stupid. She frowned and said, “This matter is both simple and difficult. It all depends on what Yang Xin wants. There are no surveillance cameras in the art troupe. Unless you can find a witness to prove that you’re innocent, it’s going to be very difficult.”

“What’s so difficult about that! I didn’t hit her first! How can it be my fault!” Xia He said furiously.

“Without any witnesses, they will definitely believe Yang Xin’s lies. After all, she’s the one in the hospital now,” Qiao Mei said.

There was no other choice now. Xu Lan could only bring Xia He to meet the Bian family and see what they wanted.

 

“I want to go too,” Qiao Mei said.
“Why would you! What if there’s an altercation and you get hurt?” Xu Lan said worriedly.

Qiao Mei was worried that Xu Lan and Xia He would be at a disadvantage. Although Xia He was a hothead and had a sharp tongue, she was quite naive and easily fell into traps. It was not a good thing for her to be barging around. Xu Lan also had a soft personality. What if they ran into a shrew?

Qiao Mei would only feel at ease if she went along as well.

“It just so happens that I feel like going to Aunt’s place for a checkup to see how much longer it is until my delivery date. Didn’t Aunt also say that I should move around more often? I haven’t been out for a long time, so let me go along and take a look,” Qiao Mei said sweetly.

After much consideration, Xu Lan decided to bring Qiao Mei along. She reminded Qiao Mei repeatedly, “You must not enter the ward. Once you reach the hospital, go and look for your Aunt immediately. Do you understand?”

“Yes, yes! I promise I’ll go to Aunt’s lounge and not cause any trouble!” Qiao Mei said obediently.

After getting dressed up, the three of them set off for Xia Fang’s hospital. It was such a weird coincidence. There were so many hospitals in the capital, so why did the Bian family choose the hospital that was known for its gynecology department?

It would have made more sense to go to the hospital closest to the military art troupe. The orthopedic department of that hospital was the best in the capital and all the top orthopedic doctors worked there.

No one knew what the Bian family was up to.

As soon as they reached the entrance of the hospital, Xu Lan asked Xia Fang to come downstairs to pick Qiao Mei up. She did not believe that Qiao Mei could keep away from the Bian family! This little girl was very smart. If she did not get someone to keep an eye on her, she would definitely sneak away.

Qiao Mei did not expect Xu Lan to have become smarter. She was indeed thinking what Xu Lan was thinking. She had originally planned to secretly follow Xu Lan and Xia He into the Bian family’s ward.

“Mother… I really won’t run around. There’s no need to trouble Aunt,” Qiao Mei said helplessly.

“No! I must ask your Aunt to come down and pick you up!” Xu Lan said firmly.
