After MO Zhu found out she was pregnant, she stayed at home to rest. The office needed someone to take over her work, so they hired a new staff member. During that period of time, Xia Wen was so busy with the collaboration between the government and Qiao Mei’s factory that he did not take notice of who MO Zhu’s replacement was. It was only when everything was settled that Xia Wen realized it was Shi Rui!

“I’ve been very careful all this while, but I never expected her to be able to find an opportunity to come to my office,” Xia Wen said helplessly.

During the past few years, Shi Rui had kept trying to contact him. Every time the Xia family held a family banquet, Xu Ju would purposely bring Shi Rui along. As time passed, Shi Rui got used to doing things this way.

MO Zhu knew that Shi Rui did not come with good intentions, but she did not have the time to care about these things. As long as Xia Wen was faithful to her, she did not care about anything else. She had full trust in Xia Wen.

“So why did she come and look for you?” Qiao Mei asked.

“It’s nothing more than to tell me about what’s happening in her family. After you left, there were earth-shattering changes in the Xu family. I haven’t had the chance to tell you about these things yet,” Xia Wen said.

Xu Man had gotten quite good results in the college entrance examination results that year. She managed to get admitted into the university she wanted and from then on, she completely cut off all contact with her family. Xu Ju had no intention to look for Xu Man either. To her, it was not a bad thing to have one less person to feed at home. She could not be happier about this!

Xu Jiao was not so promising. She attended classes again and retook the exams but she still did not manage to get admitted to university even after two years. Xu Ju was really angry about this and had started making plans to marry Xu Jiao off.

All these were nothing too interesting. The biggest piece of news was probably the fact that Xu Ju had found out she was pregnant! She managed to get pregnant at such an advanced age! Xu Ju was very happy about this and had asked Xu Lan to bring her to Xia Fangs hospital for a checkup and to find out if the baby was a boy or a girl. When the scans showed that it was a boy, Xu Ju became even happier and the Xu family had set off firecrackers to celebrate the occasion!

Xu Ju t s husband, Zhang Leng, was not in such a good mood though. He knew very well that the child Xu Ju was carrying was not his. They had not shared the same bed for many years.

“And so they fought with each other. Xu Ju almost had a miscarriage after getting beaten up by Zhang Leng. The Xu family called the police and Zhang Leng was arrested. This issue is still pending, so Shi Rui used this as a reason to come and look for me, saying that she wants to help Xu Ju out,” Xia Wen said.

“How interesting. I didn’t expect it to be so exciting around here while I was away! Xu Ju is really amazing. She is still expecting a child at her age. Won’t this endanger her life?” Qiao Mei asked.

“You’ve hit the nail on the head. Shi Rui has come to ask me for that ‘divine medicine’ to protect Xu Ju’s baby!” Xia Wen said.

“This is really… unbelievable… Even Xu Jiao isn’t so worried about Xu Ju t s health. It’s Shi Rui who seems more worried. I’m now even more curious about how this whole story will conclude!” Qiao Mei said excitedly.

“Alright, alright, let’s go home now! Why are you here to look for me today?” Xia Wen asked.

“l was so focused on your issue that I almost forgot about what I’m here for. Let’s talk about it when we get home.” After saying that, Qiao Mei focused on driving back to Xu Lan’s place.

During this period of time, Xu Lan had been taking care of the children. She spent all her time with her grandchildren every day and she smiled a lot more nowadays. In fact, she looked even younger now!

Qiao Mei told Xia Wen about what happened this morning. Xia Wen immediately said, “Shall I transfer them out of town?”

“So smart! Eldest Brother really knows what I’m thinking!” Qiao Mei said.

“Alright, leave this matter to me.” After saying that, Xia Wen called someone he knew well and gave that person some instructions.

Not long after, Liang Guo received a transfer notice. His current job was an administrative role in a government district department in the capital. Now, he was going to be transferred to a remote town to become the head of a department there.

He did not hesitate at all and immediately accepted the transfer. As the saying went, better the head of a dog than the tail of a lion. Even though he was only the head of department in a remote town, the title sounded nice enough!

He was given very little time to report at his new workplace and there was only one car heading there from the capital. He quickly packed his luggage and left the capital the next day to take up his new post there, completely forgetting about Liang Shu.

Liang Lan also received a similar transfer. She was sent to the same town as Liang Guo, but in a different department. Liang Lan made the same decision as Liang Guo..
