“I’ll get to the bottom of the matter regarding the jewelry! But you have to marry my younger brother! Divorce that bastard immediately. My brother says that he doesn’t mind that you have a previous relationship. On account that your family background is similar to ours, we won’t mind that this is your second marriage,” Cao Kuan said.

“What did you say?” Qiao Mei asked angrily.

“Am I not being obvious enough? Then let me be more clear. When I came, I didn’t know that Xia He was already married, so 1 brought a lot of betrothal gifts. Given that it’s a second marriage for her, our family won’t be giving her these things anymore. Your family still has to give us more dowry! Otherwise, our family will suffer a huge loss! I think this house is not bad, so let this house be part of her dowry,” Cao Kuan said disdainfully.

“What did you say? You want me to get a divorce! Who do you think you are! You shameless thing! You don’t want to listen when I speak to you nicely. Are you asking for a scolding!” Xia He pointed at Cao Kuan and scolded him.

“How can you talk like this! You’re the one who let my brother down first! How can you get angry instead! What right do you have to be angry! I’ve done a check on that man of yours. He’s nothing, just a pauper! You might as well be with my brother!” Cao Kuan rattled off.

After Cao Zhai woke up, he started to threaten the Cao family with his life. If they did not satisfy his desires, he would slit his wrist and commit suicide. He only wanted Xia He to be his wife and he had no interest in anyone else. Even if Cao Kuan could only bring back Xia He’s corpse, Cao Zhai would still marry her.

Cao Kuan had no choice but to go along with Cao Zhai’s wishes. It was more important to him to protect Cao Zhai’s life. After all, Cao Zhai was still young. When he got over this in the future and got tired of Xia He, he would fall for another woman. At that time, the family could just get rid of Xia He.

“Hmph, what right do you have to blame the figments of your brother’s imagination on me? I’m going to sue you for slander! You spread rumors and slander me! You want to destroy my family! You want me to divorce my husband! You’re worse than an animal! And let me tell you! This is already my second marriage! Even if I have to get married three times! Or four times! I won’t marry into your family!” Xia He roared.

Qiao Mei wished she could give Xia He a round of applause. Xia He remembered how she usually phrased her arguments and could even draw inferences!

“l heard that your younger brother only managed to stay alive after drinking our family’s medicinal wine, right?” Qiao Mei suddenly looked at Cao Kuan and asked.

“Yes, so what?” Cao Kuan asked. Everyone in the bus had drunk the medicinal wine, so there was no point in lying.

“If that medicinal wine is for sale, a small bottle would cost more than 100,000 dollars. At that time, Xia He did not have much, but she must have given Cao Zhai a few sips, right?” Qiao Mei asked as she looked at Xia He.

Xia He immediately said, “He took three sips!’

“Three sips should cost about 50,000 to 60,000 dollars et Qiao Mei said sarcastically.

“How can that lousy thing be so expensive! Why don’t you just go and rob a bank! Besides, my brother was already unconscious! You must have fed him out of your own accord! You did it willingly!” Cao Kuan said as he pointed at Xia He.

“Nonsense! It’s your younger brother who begged me! During the rescue, my eldest brother even fed him a whole bottle of medicinal wine!” Xia He said.

“That’s right. These are all the things that saved your brother’s life. Don’t you think they’re worth tens of thousands of dollars? Our family saved your brother’s life, but not only did you not thank us, you even came to our house to force our Xia He to get a divorce and then remarry. I don’t think a human being can do such a thing, do you? If we call the police, you won’t have it good,” Qiao Mei said.

Even if the Cao family was rich, they could not just fork out 100,000 dollars straightaway. He thought about it and finally said, “I’ll go back and persuade my brother. Perhaps there’s a misunderstanding? I’ll go back and ask him! Wait for news from me!”

Before he even finished speaking, he had already run out of the courtyard. However, the group of people did not return to Hu City directly. Instead, they went to the art troupe to investigate who had taken the jewelry which Cao Zhai gave away.

Xia He wanted to sit down and heave a sigh of relief, but Xu Lan said, “Stand there! ”

“Mother… what did I do…” Xia He said as she looked at Xu Lan in fear.

“Don’t go to the art troupe anymore. Just stay by my side obediently. After some time, get your eldest brother to find you a stable job in the government. You can’t leave the capital without my permission,” Xu Lan said..
