Qiao Mei said a silent prayer for Deng Fan. Fortunately, Deng Fan was a person who was very focused on earning money and doing research. He did not have any bad habits and never went to any casual drinking sessions. Otherwise, he might already be a paraplegic at home.

“How’s the business at the farm recently?” Qiao Mei asked.

“Business is exceptionally good and the construction works have also been completed. Only the interior renovations aren’t done yet. I really wish that Deng Fan is here to help me. Just choosing the materials took me an entire day! What kind of style do you like? We can go and look at the furniture together,” Xia He said.

“There’s still half a month before school starts. I don’t want to waste my time on such renovation works. Do you want to go out and have fun with me?” Qiao Mei pulled Xia He aside and asked softly.

“Where are we going to have fun?” Xia He asked excitedly.

“Sky City,” Obo Mei said.

Xia He knew that the largest casino in Country M was located there. She had long wanted to see what the casino looked like! Moreover, even though she had made a lot of money here, this was just a small town and the only thing that was advanced here was agriculture. There were not many luxury stores in the shopping malls and she had no place to spend her money.

“Alright! Let’s leave tomorrow!” Xia He said.

“l want to accompany the children for a few days first. We’ll leave after a while. It doesn’t take long to get to Sky City. Come to my room tonight, I have something to tell you,” Qiao Mei said mysteriously.

“Alright, whatever you say,” Xia He said happily.

Qiao Mei brought a big package to the children’s room. The three children were originally playing together, but Xia Xing started crying loudly the moment she saw Qiao Mei. Right on the heels of that, Xia Fan also started crying. The youngest Xia Yue did not know why his older siblings were crying, but since they were both crying, he also followed suit. It was a very chaotic situation.

“Oh no, my darlings! Mama is back! I’m sorry… Mama has been gone for a long time this time round. Do you miss me?” Qiao Mei said as she hugged the children with heartache.

“Mama!” Xia Xing wailed.

“Mama is here, Mama is here!” Qiao Mei said hurriedly.

After half an hour of cuddling, the children finally stopped crying. Qiao Mei then brought over the package she was carrying. It contained her gifts for the children.

“Xia Xing, look. What is this?” Qiao Mei took the teddy bear and placed it in front of Xia Xing and the girl hugged it happily. Although Xia Xing already had many teddy bears, she still liked it a lot.

“This is from Papa,” Xia Xing said in a crisp voice.

Qiao Mei looked at the teddy bear carefully, but she did not find any marks left behind by Xia Zhe. She looked at Xia Xing curiously and asked, “How do you know that this is from Papa?”

Xia Xing pointed at the moon on the teddy bear’s neck and said, “Papa and I made a pact. Papa said that he would buy me a teddy bear with a moon on it.”

Qiao Mei immediately realized that Xia Xing had a really good memory. It had been almost a year since Xia Zhe left for the mission. At that time, Xia Xing did not even know how to speak yet. It was surprising that she could remember what happened a year ago.

“Xia Xing is so smart. Then Xia Fan, can you guess what Papa bought for you?” Qiao Mei asked.

Xia Fan turned his head away coldly and did not say anything. Qiao Mei thought that Xia Fan was still angry at her for being away from home during this period of time. Even though he liked to act grown up, the way he looked at Qiao Mei’s package from time to time betrayed his real feelings.

“Come and take a look at what this is- This is a miniature car from Papa- Take a look~ If you don’t look, I’ll take it away~” Qiao Mei held up the toy car and whispered into Xia Fan’s ear.

Xia Fan happily took the toy car from Qiao Mei’s hand and said, “l want it!” Qiao Mei reached out to tap the bridge of Xia Fan’s nose and said dotingly, “Little imp, you even want to ignore Mama. Be careful that I tell Papa about this! I’ll let him deal with all of you!’

“Hmph! Papa won’t scold us!” Xia Fan said smugly.

These two children were really too smart. For a moment, Qiao Mei could not think of a way to deal with them.. She picked up a cute crocodile-shaped pacifier and said, “Yue Yue, look at the pacifier from Papa~”
