Chapter 2158: Rejection

“I’ll go with Fourth Aunt-in-law’s arrangements,” Meng Yuan said obediently.

The people around them watched quietly as the drama unfolded. Some of them recognized Xu Lan by now. They did not expect Meng Yuan to have such a close relationship with the Xia family! No wonder Meng Yuan was not interested in Xu Chun.

Xu Chun ran out of the canteen without getting the food. Xu Lan smiled in satisfaction. She emerged victorious today! This girl definitely would not dare to do anything to Meng Yuan again. She had not felt so happy in a long time.

Meng Yuan went to get food for Xu Lan and Qiao Mei and even brought them to take a look around the Education Bureau. He also briefly described his job here. Qiao Mei was an important business partner of the bureau, so there was no issue with telling her about these details.

“Xiao Yuan, you should go back to work. Qiao Mei and I will go home now. Come to Qiao Mei’s house for dinner tonight and we’ll talk more later,” Xu Lan said.

“Third Sister-in-law, drive carefully. Goodbye, Fourth Aunt-in-law!” Meng Yuan watched until Qiao Mei’s car disappeared from his sight at the intersection before returning to work.

After reaching home, Qiao Mei arranged for Yao Nian to investigate Xu Chun’s background. At dinnertime, Yao Nian sent the information pack to her house but she was not in a hurry to open it. She wanted to do it only when everyone was around.

“Xiao Yuan, if you don’t mind, you can address me as Godmother. If you keep calling me Fourth Aunt-in-law, I’ll feel like I’ve aged more than 10 years!” Xu Lan said.

“Fourth Aunt-in-law  Oops no! Godmother! Of course I’m willing to do that!” Meng Yuan said considerately.

He would always remember how well the Xia family treated him. He had long treated Xu Lan and Xia Mao like his parents. However, the Xia family was a very prominent one. If he got too close to the Xia family members, people might think that he was just trying to bask in their glory. Now that Xu Lan had taken the initiative to bring up this issue, it had also solved this worry that had been weighing on his mind.

After dinner, Qiao Mei opened the information pack about Xu Chun in front of everyone and was shocked to read the contents. This person was actually related to Xu Ba!

“Xu Chun’s father is Xu Tian and Xu Tian is Xu Ba’s biological elder brother!” Qiao Mei said in shock as she looked at the information in her hands.

“I can’t believe it! How is your mother getting along with Xu Ba nowadays?” Xu Lan asked.

Qiao Mei had asked Li Gui about this some time ago. Li Gui had rejected Xu Ba once because of the issue regarding her reputation, but Xu Ba still continued to woo Li Gui. At that time, Li Gui did not know how she actually felt about Xu Ba.

After two marriages, she had some doubts about her choice in men. She was afraid of going down the same path again with another man. Although she had experienced an unprecedented amount of consideration, care, love and respect during the time she spent with Xu Ba, it was still too early to confirm their relationship. She wanted to wait and see.

“They’ve just been dating and have not talked about anything specific,” Qiao Mei said.

“It seems that Xu Chun already knows about Meng Yuan’s relationship with our family. She’s doing all this on purpose,” Xia You said.

Qiao Mei looked at all the information in her hands and her expression gradually turned serious. She did not know if Xu Ba knew about what Xu Chun was doing, but it seemed that she was going to have to meet the Xu family members personally.

Xu Ba had just ended a full day at work. When he got home, he could hear a lively commotion in the house from outside the door. When he opened the door, he saw that his elder brother’s family was here. It was not the new year or festive season, so why would they be visiting?

Old Madam Xu lived with Xu Ba. At this moment, Xu Chun was chatting casually with Old Madam Xu! Old Madam Xu looked very happy.

“Little Uncle, you’re back!” Xu Chun shouted.

“Yes I am. Why are all of you here? Is there some good news to share today?” Xu Ba asked.

“I miss Grandma, so I ask my parents to come over for a visit. Little Uncle, did you go on a date just now?” Xu Chun asked deliberately.

Everyone in the Xu family knew about the relationship between Xu Ba and Li Gui. Xu Chun was already in her 20s and was of marriageable age. However, her father, Xu Tian, was only the factory director of a small food factory and her mother was a full-time housewife who took care of her maternal grandmother. With her family background, what kind of prominent family would be interested in her?

It was Xu Ba who recommended her to work in the Education Bureau. She was still just a temporary worker. If the Education Bureau had to lay off employees, she would be the first one to get the chop! She wanted to gain a firm foothold in the Education Bureau and that was why she had targeted Meng Yuan.

If Xu Ba and Li Gui really got married, then she and Qiao Mei would become part of the same family and she would be able to reap a lot of benefits from it. However, she could not just sit back and wait for things to happen. Meng Yuan was her backup plan.

Now that Xu Lan had put an end to this plan, she had to put more thought into it. As the old saying went, it was difficult for a man to woo a woman but not the only way round. She believed that with enough time, Meng Yuan would eventually be attracted to her!
