After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!-Chapter 2295: Formal Meeting
Chapter 2295: Formal Meeting
Mo Zhu quickly hugged Qiao Mei even tighter and said, "You can hug me for as long as you want. There are no outsiders here. You can hug me the whole day if you want."
Qiao Mei made a cheeky face at Xia Wen, who smiled resignedly. This was also the first time he felt that he had gone overboard with his possessiveness. Not only was he jealous of men, but he was even jealous of a woman now.
At his age, he was behaving like a much younger person. He was really becoming more and more irritable as he got older!
"Alright, let go of your sister-in-law quickly! Everyone is here!" Xu Lan said as she entered the house.
Liu Fen was dressed very formally, but she did not look too happy. She was already very unhappy about Xia Wan going overseas and now, Xia Wan had brought back a man from there! She did not know anything about what had happened!
Qiao Mei quickly gave Xia Xing a look and Xia Xing immediately understood what she meant. Xia Xing quickly walked towards Liu Fen and hugged her thigh, saying, "Give me a hug, Second Grandma~ I miss you~"
A blissful expression immediately appeared on Liu Fen's face. Who could reject such a cute little kid?
Xia Wen and Mo Zhu looked at each other and smiled. The two of them felt that Xia Xing's actions just now looked exactly like Qiao Mei. Those two were simply carved from the same mold!
"I miss Yuan Yuan too-" Liu Fen said.
"Second Grandma, why are you unhappy? Second Grandma, you have to smile more~" Xia Xing said.
"I'm happy! I'm very happy! Yuan Yuan must have been mistaken just now!" Liu Fen said. The third son's family was not in attendance since they had already left the capital. Xia Jun, Xia Mao and Xia Yao were busy with work and could not come, but everyone else came.
"Where's Xia Wan? Why isn't she here?" Liu Fen asked.
Qiao Mei walked to the door and waved. Xia Wan led Gao Long into the house. She did not even behave so formally when she got married for the first time. She was very scared now, but Gao Long looked calm and composed.
"Hello, everyone. My name is Gao Long and I'm Xia Wan's boyfriend." Gao Long introduced himself confidently.
Everyone turned towards Liu Fen. After all, the matter today was related to the second son's family. It was not appropriate for anyone from the eldest son's family to make any comments.
"Have a seat," Liu Fen said sternly.
This person did not look as unreliable as Liu Fen had imagined. She had thought that it would be one of those boorish foreigners. If so, her future grandchildren might even be mixed-race? Now, it seemed that whatever she was worried about would not happen.
"Mother, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but I was busy working overseas and taking care of Xia Mo. I really didn't have the time to tell you," Xia Wan said softly.
"How's Xia Mo? Didn't she come back?" Liu Fen asked.
"Xia Mo still needs to go to school. I've already hired a female bodyguard to accompany her 24 hours a day. There's also a butler and a helper at home. She's very safe," Gao Long said. Helper! Butler! He could even afford to hire bodyguards! Oh my goodness! How rich was he? How did Xia Wan get to know Gao Long? Everyone looked at Xia Wan in confusion.
"What... What do you want with our Xia Wan? Where are your parents?" Liu Fen asked.
"I like Xia Wan. I've never been married before. I want to spend the rest of my life with her and love and protect her so that she would never be hurt. I can let her live the rest of her life without worry and make her happy. If you're worried that I won't treat Xia Mo well, I don't mind not having children of my own. I'll just treat Xia Mo as my own," Gao Long said as he looked at Liu Fen firmly.
Everyone present was shocked and so was Qiao Mei. She did not expect Gao Long to be so direct. What was the difference between this speech and a confession of love?
"Stop... stop talking!" Xia Wan said as she blushed.
"My mother and elder brother have both passed away. In my family, there's only my father, Gao Lin, and my nephew, Gao Ming, and..." Gao Long looked at Qiao Mei but did not continue.
Everyone knew who Gao Lin and Gao Ming were, so they could naturally guess that Gao Long was related to Qiao Mei. Liu Fen stared at Qiao Mei and asked, "Mei Mei, is he your uncle?"
"Yes," Qiao Mei said.
"How much do you know about this?" Liu Fen asked again.
"I only found out when I went back to Country M this time round," Qiao Mei answered truthfully.
Liu Fen believed that Qiao Mei was not lying. Since this man was Qiao Mei's relative, he should not be too bad a person. Moreover, judging from Xia Wan's reaction, she really liked
Gao Long.
Actually, Liu Fen did not object to Xia Wan getting remarried. She had been looking forward to Xia Wan finding a man she could depend on. However, she was worried that this man would cause Xia Wan to be hurt again, which was why she felt a little against him.
"Do you have any plans for your life after getting married?" Liu Fen asked after taking a deep breath.
"We can get married here. Most of my businesses are in Country M and I will need some time to sort out my assets. In the future, Xia Wan can live anywhere she wants. I'll take her lead,"
Gao Long said.
