Chapitre 272: Elder Sister Is Back

This stepfather must not be any good if he was the kind of person who could chase away his wife and four children to the countryside.

Her father had passed away early and her mother had to take care of her four half-siblings and a seriously ill grandfather. Her family background was not only not good, but she was also from the countryside.

Xu Lan frowned as she thought about all these. She did not know what Xia Zhe saw in the girl and how he could think that such a family background was worthy of the Xia family.

"Alright, it's time to prepare dinner," said Xia Mao.

Xu Lan stopped thinking about the mess as she decided she needed to think about everything at length.

Xu Lan sat on the sofa and looked at Qiao Mei silently. It was almost time for dinner. Xu Lan thought that any sensible person would know that it was time to help out.
