Chương 37: Chapter 37
"That's why the driver kept on looking at me."
After she went to the hospital, she told Grandpa Zheng about what happened to Mingxia.
The old man was mad and told her not to ever come closer to Mingxia, cause she might cause her pain again.
Xiaohui doesn't have any other choice but to leave her cousin behind and go home alone.
Wenqian was sent back to the office as soon as the medics arrive. Zedong wanted to drop Xiaohui off but the lady declines.
Meixiu kept her eyes on the door. Her eyes showed a confused gaze.
"Does that mean... She killed someone?"
"Or maybe she saved someone?"
Xiaohui went out of the room with new clothes. She looks at Meixiu and smiles awkwardly.
"What happened?"
Meixiu follows Xiaohui as the woman went inside the kitchen to get a glass of water.
She went out and sighs, sitting down on the couch. Meixiu follows her wife, looking at her with concern in her eyes.
"Mingxia."
"She's being pushed by your grandfather?"
No, she was stabbed."
Meixiu nodded and listen to what Xiaohui is going to say next. The smaller look at the taller and saw that she didn't have any expression at all.
"Aren't you going to say anything?"
"I still need to know the whole story."
Xiaohui sighs and puts the glass of water on the coffee table. She faces Meixiu as they both hold eye contact.
"This Han Mingyu went to the site and told everyone to leave because it is his property. He threatens Ms. Zhong but Ms. Zhong didn't leave and continues to guard me."
"I don't know why she's doing it but later on, Zedong went to guard Ms. Zhong when Han Mingyu was about to stab her."
"Han Mingyu decided to stab Zedong instead as he heard the siren but Mingxia went in front to protect him."
"The reason why Mingxia was stabbed."
Meixiu nodded her head, understanding the situation. She looks at her wife and held her shoulder, surprising Xiaohui.
"Are you ok? You didn't get any scratches?"
"No! I was at the back of the three!"
Xiaohui removes Meixiu's hands away from her shoulder, her cheeks painting a deep shade of pink.
Meixiu sighs in relief and decided to call Wenqian to know who Han Mingyu is. She went inside their bedroom.
"Young Master, I'm sorry I couldn't-"
"No, it's fine. My wife is safe."
"But, how about-"
"I don't care about that girl. She never treats me and my wife right."
Wenqian was silent on the other line.
"But, she's a family."
"The whole Zheng family never treats Xiaohui right."
"Do you-"
"No, the head of the Zheng family knows she protected Zedong and you. He'll never let someone take care of the hospital bills."
In the hospital, Qiang and Grandpa Zheng were both seen inside Mingxia's hospital room.
"Grandpa, we should ask for their money."
"No, Mingxia did right. We won't look good if we ever ask for their money."
Qiang looked at his grandfather. He scoffs but didn't say anything and looks at his sister.
Grandpa Zheng stands up from the couch.
"Your father and mother are both going back from their vacation. Tell them everything that happened."
Qiang and Mingxia's parents are still alive. They went away to do a vacation after a long time of their father working hard in the company.
Their parents didn't like Xiaohui and Xiaoli. Their father, who is Xiaowen's brother dislikes them very much.
He didn't like how Xiaowen marries Xiaoli and how Grandpa Zheng likes Xiaohui very much.
He didn't like how Grandpa Zheng puts Xiaohui inside the company but celebrated when Xiaohui marries Meixiu.
He knew that Xiaohui is dumb. His father never seen her acting dumb.
"I'll go back to the villa, you take care of your sister."
Qiang nodded. He stands up from the chair he sitting at and bows his head to show respect. Grandpa Zheng looks at Mingxia before walking away from them.

"Xiaohui, I'll be leaving later."
Xiaohui looks at her back and saw Meixiu at the kitchen entrance. They just finished eating their breakfast and Xiaohui volunteered to wash the dishes.
Xiaohui puts the last plate in its place and wipes her hands dry.
"Who are you with?"
Xiaohui finally looks at Meixiu, smiling at her widely. Meixiu walks in her direction and held Xiaohui's shoulder.
"Don't worry. I'll buy you something in return."
"No, I'm fine."
"I'm going with Suyin."
Xiaohui's smiling face faded. Meixiu furrow her eyebrows but didn't ask Xiaohyi about it.
"Is that so? You can go, of course."
"Are you sure? I can cancel it if you want."
"No! Why would you cancel it? You are going with someone beautiful..."
Not as beautiful as you.
"... So better get ready and impress her."
"Why would I impress her?"
Meixiu's frown deepens. Xiaohui opens her mouth and closes it afterward upon not thinking of what she should reply to.
She sighs and smiles at Meixiu, shaking her head in the process.
"Nothing, just go and get dressed."
Meixiu's phone vibrated in her pocket. She quickly pull it and saw Suyin's text.
"Ok, she told me she's already outside."
"Make it fast. Don't let her wait for you."
"Baby, they can wait. How about you? Do you want me to drop you off at the company?"
"I can take a taxi from here."
Meixiu nodded and left Xiaohui. The smaller girl sighs and looks out from the window in their kitchen.
She saw Suyin outside of her car, wearing a floral dress that hugs her body. Suyin is fixing her make-up and practicing smiling.
It causes Xiaohui to scoff as she crosses her arms.
It seems like everyone likes her wife, but why can't her family like her?
And what Xiaohui means by everyone, as in the ones who have money, fame, respect, and beauty.
It weirded Xiaohui. Was there something wrong with her? Or maybe they found something right with Meixiu?
"Xiaohui!"
Xiaohui flinches and quickly walks out of the kitchen. She saw Xiaowen on the dining table, breathing heavily.
Xiaowen saw Xiaohui going out of the kitchen so she went to her and held her shoulder.
"Why did you let Meixiu go? No one will cook for me and Mom!"
"Mom, you can just reheat the food from earlier."
Xiaowen glares at Xiaohui.
"You do know I don't like eating the same thing all the time right?"
"Mom, what's so hard with it? Eating the same thing all the time can lessen our expenses."
"Still! I'll go and buy our food in the restaurant."
"Mom."
Xiaohui could only sigh and look at her mother, who went to their house for money and grab a few for the food she was going to buy.
-
"Ms. Song, we're here."
Meixiu walks out of the car, with Suyin opening the door for her. She looks around the area and saw that they are in a secluded one.
"Ms. Song, I invited some of my friends. They are also looking for a good antique."
Meixiu nodded her head. The two of them walk inside the hall, with Suyin leading the path.
"Ms. Jia!"
Suyin look to her left and saw Liu Ru, who bows to her and quickly approaches her. The old man stops for a bit to look at Meixiu before smiling widely at Suyin.
"Ms. Jia! It's great to see you again."
Suyin smiles back at him.
"I could say the same too."
Liu Ru is someone who has been exposed to antiques ever since he was a child. Ru is 85 years old already but a lot of people still want him to work for them.
Liu Ru is a well-known antique seller. He doesn't have the luck of giving out some antiques as rich people don't see any value in them.
Now, he's trying to sell Suyin the antiques that he has not yet sold to anyone.
"Ms. Jia, the others are here already. Let's come inside."
Suyin nodded and walk first. Meixiu was about to follow Suyin but Liu Ru stops her.
"Excuse me? Only rich personnel can come in."
Liu Ru said and follow Suyin inside. Meixiu shrugs her shoulder and is about to walk away went she heard frantic footsteps. She smiles as she saw Suyin's frantic face.
"Ms. Song!"
Suyin walked toward her place and bow down. Meixiu pretends to be confused.
"Ms. Song! I apologize for Mr. Liu's action. Please come with me."
"But, he told me I don't belong-"
"No! He's wrong! Please, come inside with me."
Suyin hesitantly held Meixiu's arms and look at her with pleading eyes. Meixiu thinks for a while before nodding her head.
