1575 Please Do Not Ignore Me
“The couple hasn’t been interrogated yet. I think we should be able to get something useful out of them,” Xia Xiu said unhurriedly.

“Can they tell us who the mastermind is?” Xia Mao asked.

“Hmph, don’t you trust my skills?” Xia Xiu said confidently.

Xia Mao smiled resignedly. When it came to interrogation, Xia Mao would never be able to reach Xia Xiu’s level. He believed that Xia Xiu would be able to give him an answer.

However, both of them knew what to expect. Even if they could get all the clues from the couple, they had no hard evidence to nail the mastermind. Private investigators were actually part of an underground business and could not be exposed. If their enemies found out their real identities, their lives would be in danger.

They would have to be satisfied with just the clues. There was still a long way to go and they were not in a hurry to take revenge. However, the mastermind could forget about having a good life from now on!

Three days after Xia Zhe returned home, he still refused to speak to Qiao Mei. It made her so anxious that she kept pacing around the house. When he still ignored her, she sat in the courtyard and wept silently. Xu Lan, who had come for a visit, happened to see this scene when she arrived.

“Mei Mei! What’s wrong with you! Did Xia Zhe bully you! Why are you crying! Xia Zhe! Come out! Did you make Qiao Mei angry!” Xu Lan said anxiously.

Although she was unhappy about what Qiao Mei did, the children were still Qiao Mei’s children after all. As elders, they could not comment too much on the couple’s issues. As long as Xia Zhe and Qiao Mei were happy, she had no opinions.

Qiao Mei just sat there crying and could not even say a word. When Xia Zhe heard the commotion, he ran out of the house. He originally only wanted to teach Qiao Mei a lesson, but he did not expect her to be so stressed.

“You idiotic brat! What exactly did you do! Quick, go and coax Qiao Mei!” Xu Lan said agitatedly.

“I… I… It’s all my fault… Look at me, don’t cry. I shouldn’t have ignored you for so many days. I’m sorry, I know I’m in the wrong,” Xia Zhe said in a panic.

“You only know how to bully me… I also know that it’s not the best thing to do to the child! But what can I do! I’m doing this for the future! I have a flawless plan! Actually, I’m also very scared! You should at least talk to me. It’s alright even if you berate me. But how can you not talk to me!” Qiao Mei said aggrievedly.

“I’m sorry, it’s my fault. I definitely won’t bottle everything inside next time. Don’t cry…” Xia Zhe looked at Qiao Mei with heartache.

Qiao Mei was currently pregnant. If she was so agitated that it affected the baby or damaged Qiao Mei’s health, Xia Zhe also did not want to live anymore.

He was really an idiot to argue with Qiao Mei at this time!

Qiao Mei could not control her emotions. She had already forgiven Xia Zhe in her heart, but she continued to weep aggrievedly. Perhaps it was because the fear and grievances she kept in her heart from a few days ago had finally erupted.

“Actually, I’m not piqued with you. I’m… I’m angry with myself. I also need to take responsibility for this matter. If I was able to discover the evil schemes of those people earlier, I would have been able to protect you well and not let you and the children go through this,” Xia Zhe said.

“If people are gunning for us, there’s no way to defend against them. Instead of overprotecting the children, it’s better to let them experience some hardship,” Qiao Mei said.

“You’re right. I’ll definitely protect you and the children better in the future. Nothing like this will happen again,” Xia Zhe said firmly.

After this incident, Qiao Mei realized that she could not do without Xia Zhe anymore. They got married right after they met and they did not even spend half a year together after that. Moreover, Xia Zhe was very hostile towards Qiao Mei then. Now, as they spent more time together, they had long fallen in love with each other.

Their feelings for each other had grown deeper and deeper. After having children, Qiao Mei felt even more strongly about not being away from Xia Zhe. She wanted to be with Xia Zhe every day, live together and not be separated from him for even one day.

“Xia Zhe, bring Qiao Mei back to the room to rest. I’ll take care of the children today,” Xu Lan said.

Xia Zhe gently held Qiao Mei up and led her back to the bedroom. When it was time for dinner, Xu Kang sent the food to their bedroom. Although Qiao Mei’s morning sickness had alleviated during this period of time, she still felt uncomfortable from time to time, so there was a need to take care of her health.
