Chapter 1817: Do Not Claim to Be Relatives

“It’s true to say that there are empty rooms, but it’s a fact that there’s no room for you. I’d rather let the dogs live inside the rooms than let you move in. You can give up that thought,” Qiao Mei said to Shao Yin with a mocking look.

Shao Yin said agitatedly, “Cousin-in-law! How can you say that! We’re in-laws after all! Our child and your children will be close playmates. Our husbands are like brothers, so how can you say that about us? How can we be worse off than your dogs?”

“To put it bluntly, my children don’t need any playmates. I’m currently pregnant with their sibling! Now that the Xia family has split up, what does the third son’s family have to do with my family? You can just call me by my name. Don’t try to claim to be my relative here. I will never lend you the use of my house and I will never let your child come into contact with my children,” Qiao Mei said firmly.

Who knew what kind of child Shao Yin would bring up? What if her child led Xia Fan and Xia Xing astray? It was better to stay as far away from them as possible. After Qiao Mei gave birth to her third child, her three children would definitely grow up happily together. The three of them had one another and definitely would not lack playmates.

Shao Yin was about to say something when Qiao Mei quickly stood up and said, “I’ll tell Xia Xing and Third Uncle about everything that happened today.

If you continue to pester me, I’ll have to ask Third Uncle for an explanation. It’s a joke that his new daughter-in-law wants me to give up a room in my house after she marries his son.’

“No, no, no! Don’t tell them!” Shao Yin said agitatedly.

“Then get lost. Don’t let me see you at my house again!” Qiao Mei looked out and shouted, “Sister Xu! Send the guests off!”

Shao Yin left Qiao Mei!s house dejectedly. She had never imagined that Qiao Mei’s attitude would be so unyielding. Back then, Qiao Mei had agreed to all her requests and even allowed her to hold a banquet at the courtyard house. Now, Qiao Mei only made things difficult for her. She had originally thought that she could still gain a foothold in the Xia family using her child, but now it seemed that she had totally miscalculated.

After Qiao Mei asked Xu Kang to get rid of all these scumbags, she felt very happy. In the days that followed, she would occasionally find an excuse to go gallivanting with Xia He. Sometimes, she would even play chess with Xia Jun. It was soon the start of the school term and she specially sewed a new school bag for herself. She embroidered her name on it and put one of Xia Zhe’s handkerchiefs inside.

Since Xia Zhe could not be by her side all the time, she would use his handkerchief as a substitute. She only hoped that he could come back soon to reunite with them.

In the beginning, the Xia family was very supportive of Qiao Mei taking the college entrance examination. However, now that the school term was starting, everyone was against her going to school. Even Xia He, who had always been sided with Qiao Mei, did not want her to go to school.

“Mei Mei, you’re about to give birth. It’s safer for you to stay at home now. What if you get pushed or bumped by someone when you’re at school?” Xia He said worriedly.

“It’s fine. Isn’t there still more than a month before the due date? Don’t be so nervous, I’ve already given birth once. It won’t be a problem this time since I already have experience!” Qiao Mei said confidently.

Even if that was the truth, none of them sided with Qiao Mei. Although she was only having one baby this time, her stomach was not that much smaller than when she was having twins and she seemed more tired than most pregnant women. Everyone was worried that she would have a dangerous delivery this time round. Even Xia Fang was concerned.

“Will your school allow you to have a companion!” Xia He asked.

“l think they allow it… I’m not too sure either…” Qiao Mei said hesitantly.

Xia He hurriedly made a call to Xia Wen and asked him to help ask the teachers at Capital University if she could apply to be Qiao Mei’s companion. She would only tag along with Qiao Mei until Qiao Mei gave birth.

Xia Wen settled this matter very quickly. As this year’s top scorer to enter Capital University, Qiao Mei naturally had some kind of preferential treatment. Considering Qiao Mei’s identity and her current situation, Capital University approved the Xia family’s application.

However, the approval came with conditions. Xia He could only accompany Qiao Mei around the campus, but she was not allowed to enter the classrooms for lessons. After all, she was not a student at Capital University.. If everyone knew that the companions of students at Capital University could attend classes as well, there would be many people who would want to take advantage of the situation!
