1105 No One Can Think About Leaving
“You’re doing this for the sake of the Xia family! If you want to do something for the sake of the Xia family! Go back to your parents’ house and watch over your parents and brothers! Make sure they don’t come to the Xia family to ask for money! Don’t use the Xia family’s name to swindle other people! Do you really not know or are you pretending not to know! Are you proud of what your family has done!” Xu Lan was so angry that she smashed the cup on the coffee table.
Xu Lan had paid a lot of money for all her tea sets and they were all made by grandmasters. Any one piece was worth a lot of money. In the eyes of outsiders, it might not be worth much, but to people in the know, these were treasures which they would not bear to sell no matter how much money they were offered.
This showed how angry Xu Lan was.
“What does that have to do with anything! They’re all the Xia family’s children! It’s not as if I will abuse the child! The child will still be brought up within the Xia family. Isn’t it the same?” Tan Jing explained with a frown.
Xu Lan was so worked up by Tan Jing’s words that her heart felt a little uncomfortable. She quickly took out a small medicine bottle from under the coffee table and took two pills to alleviate the pain. This woman could really drive her to her grave.
Liu Fen hurriedly held on to Xu Lan to calm her down. She looked at Tan Jing fiercely and said, “Can you bear to give your child to someone else! Fortunately, you can’t have children. Otherwise, you’ll destroy the life of a child from the Xia family!”
“Sister Fan! Sister Fan!” Xu Lan shouted with all her might.
Sister Fan rushed out with her apron on, without even turning off the fire under the pot in the kitchen.
“Aye! I’m here!” Sister Fan said.
“Give Xia Wen a call and ask him to get back here! Also, ask Qiao Mei and Xia He to come back! There’s trouble in our family!” Xu Lan said angrily.
Seeing that the situation was starting to look bad, Tan Jing wanted to leave quickly and stay away from this place of trouble.
“Sister Fan! Tell the guards outside to lock down the house! Immediately! Let’s see who dares to leave through this door today!” Liu Fen roared.
Sister Fan quickly made a phone call to Luo Yu from the guard team. In less than five minutes, Luo Yu brought his team to surround the Xia family’s house. Tan Jing had no way of getting out.
“Mother… isn’t this a little exaggerated? I’m not a villain. There’s no need to do this,” Tan Jing said with an awkward smile.
“You’re not a villain! You’re trying to cause trouble! You think you can do whatever you want in this family! Do you think that your father and I are both dead! Today, let’s thrash things out as a family! If we don’t resolve this matter today! I won’t let it go!” Xu Lan said.
It just so happened that Xia Mao had returned to the army unit to hand over his work today. If Xia Mao was at home, Tan Jing definitely would not dare to speak in this manner. Xia Mao would have just asked someone to throw her out.
After Qiao Mei and Xia He received the phone call, they immediately rushed back. Ever since Qiao Mei was pregnant, Xu Lan had never asked Qiao Mei to do something so tiring. As long as it was something that Xu Lan could handle herself, she would definitely not pass it on to Qiao Mei. If she had asked the two of them to go back so urgently, something major must have happened.
“Do you think that something has happened to Father?” Xia He said fearfully.
“It can’t be. Father has already fully recovered. How can he be sick again? Don’t worry, it shouldn’t be a big deal.” Qiao Mei held Xia He’s hand and comforted her.
“Then why does she call us back so urgently? Can it be that something’s wrong with Grandfather! Or Mother!” Xia He said in fear.
Qiao Mei quickly covered Xia He’s mouth and said, “Don’t say anything anymore. Otherwise, you’ll be making wild guesses about every member of our family. Grandfather’s health is even better than yours, yet you say he may be sick? It’s more likely for you to be sick! Mother dances every day and is in good health. How can anything be wrong with her? Don’t think too much. We’ll know when we get there.”
Xia He shut her mouth tightly and used this method to alleviate the worry in her heart. When they reached the main entrance of the house, the two of them were completely dumbfounded.
“Luo Yu, what happened? Why are there so many people here?” Xia He asked as she rushed forward.
“We’re not sure either. You should go in first. It’s cold outside.” Luo Yu hurriedly took off his jacket and wrapped it around Xia He as he said with some heartache.
Xia He was not in the mood to think about anything else at all. Not long ago, she had just experienced the pain of almost losing Xia Mao. Was she going to lose someone else now?
