1720 Coming to Ask For Medicine Again

Qiao Mei knew that things were definitely not that simple. Since Xia Zhe did not want to say anything, she did not ask further. When the time was right, Xia Zhe would naturally tell her. Just as the two of them were walking back in each other’s arms, they suddenly heard a woman’s voice behind them.

“Qiao Mei! Wait! Wait for me!” Liang Lan jumped out of the car and shouted anxiously.

When Qiao Mei saw Liang Lan after turning around, she was not surprised at all. Looking at the date, it was time for Liang Lan to come again. The last time, in order to prove that she did not tamper with the medicine, Qiao Mei had poured a whole bottle of it into Liang Shu’s mouth. That amount of medicine was only enough for Liang Shu to be able to speak but it was not enough to cure her completely.

Ever since then, the Liang family’s fortune had plummeted. They lost their three main backers, the Du family, the He family and the Song family. Although Liang Lan and Liang Guo did not lose their jobs, it was quite a joke for them to be starting out again at the bottom of the ladder at their age. Many younger employees laughed at the two of them.

Liang Shu had also been pestering the siblings to go and get the medicine from Qiao Mei. Liang Lan could not take the pressure from Liang Shu anymore, so she had to come and look for Qiao Mei shamelessly.

“Qiao Mei… do you have any extra ‘divine medicine’ this month? My mother isn’t doing very well yet…” Liang Lan said.

“It’s already very late today. You can go back first. I’ll send the medicine to your house tomorrow morning,” Qiao Mei said readily.

Liang Lan stood rooted to the spot for a long time. She could not believe that Qiao Mei had agreed to her request. This was the first time Qiao Mei agreed to her request so readily!

“What? Why are you still standing here? You don’t want the medicine?” Qiao Mei asked as she raised her eyebrows.

“I want it, I want it, I want it! I’ll go home and wait for your good news! I’ll go home now!” Liang Lan said agitatedly as she ran towards her car, almost tripping on the way.

Qiao Mei turned around and went home with Xia Zhe. She was not going to give Liang Shu the ginseng juice for nothing. She still did not know who the person in the photo was. Only Liang Shu knew about the things which happened in the past. She must find out the truth and whether the person in the photo was her grandmother.

After Xia Wen came over, Xia Zhe did not leave Qiao Mei’s side the entire time. If he could, he would even accompany her to the toilet.

“Why do you keep following me around?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

“I just want to accompany you,” Xia Zhe said.

“You’re acting really strangely. What exactly happened?” Qiao Mei looked into Xia Zhe’s eyes and asked seriously.

Xia Zhe shook his head and hugged Qiao Mei as he said in a muffled voice, “Is it wrong for me to miss you?”

Qiao Mei did not want to continue asking him and the two of them hugged each other until dawn. Qiao Mei woke up early and made preparations to go to the Liang family’s house. Xia Zhe also woke up to accompany Qiao Mei there.

The two of them drove to the Liang family’s old house. The whole place seemed livelier than before. It was probably because Liang Guo had sold the main house and returned to stay at the old house. Since there were more people around, there were more activities.

“I’ll go in alone. Liang Shu is sick and she doesn’t want to see anyone else. She’s concerned about her reputation. You can just wait for me in the car,” Qiao Mei said as she discussed the situation with Xia Zhe.

“I don’t feel at ease. What if they do something to hurt you?” Xia Zhe said with a slight frown.

“Liang Shu is currently just a patient. Even if she wants to hurt me, she can’t do anything. As for Liang Lan, she doesn’t have the strength to fight with me. There’s no one else in the house except the two of them. Don’t worry,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“Then I’ll wait for you in the car,” Xia Zhe said.

Qiao Mei slowly approached the Liang family’s house with the medicinal wine. Liang Lan was already waiting at the door. The moment she heard the sound of a car outside, she ran to the door to welcome Qiao Mei.

Liang Shu was still staying in the same room as before and nothing had changed. As soon as Qiao Mei entered, she could smell a familiar stench. However, the smell this time was much more faint and not as obvious as the last time.

“I’m here,” Qiao Mei said as she looked at Liang Shu who was on the bed.

“Why are you here…” Liang Shu tried her best to speak to Qiao Mei.

“I’m here to deliver medicine to you of course. Otherwise, why will I come to see you?” Qiao Mei said.

“Then… since you’ve sent it over… leave quickly! You’re not welcome in our house!” Liang Shu said furiously.

“Don’t leave!” Liang Lan turned around and shouted at Liang Shu, “Mother! What are you doing! It’s not easy for me to invite her over! Why are you chasing her away!”

Liang Shu sat obediently on the bed and did not speak. Qiao Mei did not blame Liang Shu. The purpose of her visit this time was not to get angry with Liang Shu. She wanted to get what she wanted first.
