After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

1320 Exceptional Acting Skills

Not long ago during the new year, Liu Fen could also see Qiao Mei’s attitude towards her four children. In the future, Qiao Mei would definitely have a say in this family. Xia Wen and Xia He treated Qiao Mei well, so Qiao Mei was generous enough to want to give them a courtyard house each. What was the mere old residence worth? Only Zhou Luo was still muddle-headed enough to still be eyeing the family assets.

“Either you get out now and don’t come and disturb our family again in the future, or we will pursue this issue and try our best to make you stay in jail for the rest of your life,” Qiao Mei said threateningly to Zhou Luo.

“Do you think I’m not educated? What crime have I committed! No matter how powerful your Xia family is! You can’t just get someone arrested so easily!” Zhou Luo said.

Qiao Mei quietly turned around and gave Xu Lan a look. Xu Lan immediately understood what she meant and quickly pretended to feel weak. She then fainted in the blink of an eye, scaring Liu Fen so much that she panicked and shouted, “Eldest Sister-in-law! Eldest Sister-in-law, what’s wrong! Don’t scare me! Xiao Zhe, come and take a look at your mother! What’s wrong with Eldest Sister-in-law! What should we do!”

Xu Lan was usually in good health and did not suffer from any illnesses. There were no abnormalities detected during her annual physical examinations, so how could she suddenly fall ill?

“You’ve made my mother-in-law faint from anger! Don’t even think about leaving this place! Luo Yu! Send your men here!” Qiao Mei looked towards the main door and shouted for Luo Yu. When Luo Yu heard her, he immediately ran towards the house.

Zhou Luo had never experienced such a serious situation before. She was just here to ask for some money for Xia Xing’s wedding. How did it become a situation of someone getting hurt?

She quickly scrambled out of the Xia family residence. Worried that the Xia family would look for her again, she decided to pack her things and return to her hometown today! Money was a small matter, but if she had to spend the rest of her life in jail, they might as well just kill her!

“Mother! Mother, look at me!” Xia Zhe shouted in a panic as he held Xu Lan.

“Alright, she’s gone,” Qiao Mei said calmly.

Liu Fen thought that Qiao Mei meant Xu Lan was dead and she wept even harder. She pointed at Qiao Mei and shouted, “Why are you so calm! My sister-in-law has already died and there’s no reaction from you at all! To think that my sister-in-law treats you so well! Where’s your conscience!”

Xu Lan, who was lying in Xia Zhe’s arms, quickly opened her eyes and said, “I’m not dead. I’m just putting on an act!”

Liu Fen and Xia Zhe were stunned on the spot. Only she and Qiao Mei were beaming with joy. She stood up and hugged Qiao Mei happily, as if the two of them were as close as sisters.

“You… you two…” Liu Fen said in confusion.

“I was pretending! Otherwise, that woman would still linger in our house and refuse to leave! This is a scheme that Qiao Mei and I came up with!” Xu Lan said smugly.

After all, she had even acted in musicals when she was young! Her acting skills were definitely top-notch! If there were any flaws in her acting just now, she would have to reflect on what she had done since she retired.

Xia Zhe patted the dust off his pants and smiled resignedly. When these two women first met, they were like fire and water. Now, they were so close that they were like two peas in a pod! He had almost been deceived by them as well.

However, he was so worried that he could not think straight just now. No matter who fainted in the room earlier, he would be equally as anxious. After all, these were his blood relatives. He was unable to think about the problem logically at all.

“You scare me to death! You have to give me a heads up next time! My heart can’t take the shock!” Liu Fen said as she held her chest in fear. Even now, her heart was still beating wildly.

Xu Lan had felt a little touched when she heard what Liu Fen said just now. All the kindness she showed Liu Fen was not in vain. Liu Fen had proven herself to be reliable at critical moments.

“Second Aunt-in-law, if we tell you, our plan will be exposed!” Qiao Mei said aggrievedly.

“My acting skills are indeed not that good…” Liu Fen scratched her head in embarrassment.

The family chatted and laughed about how realistic Xu Lan’s acting skills were just now and how Qiao Mei and Xu Lan had tacitly defeated Zhou Luo.

There was a sudden loud bang at the door.

“Mother!” Xia He shouted as she ran in anxiously. She almost broke the glass panel of the main door and Deng Fan was following closely behind her. The two of them were sweating profusely and panting.

“Did you… get chased by dogs?” Xu Lan asked curiously.

“What are you saying! Are you alright? I heard that something happened at home, so I quickly asked Deng Fan to come back on his motorcycle. We even ran all the way up from the entrance of the neighborhood!” Xia He said.
