“Shut up!” Xu Ba said angrily. If Qiao Mei said she would do something, it would definitely be done. She would not joke about such things.
“I’m your biological daughter! Father!” Xu Jin roared back angrily. For so many days, she had never addressed Xu Ba as “Father”. Now, she called him “Father” so as to make him feel guilty.
The word “biological” seemed to bind Xu Ba like shackles. He looked at Xu Jin, momentarily lost for words.
Qiao Mei looked at Cai Ming and Xu Jin appreciatively. These two women were both quite smart. Xu Jin had definitely inherited Cai Ming’s intelligence.@@@@
“Don’t worry, I always keep my word. If it can’t be done for whatever reason, Uncle Xu can always come back to do it himself. I’m fairly well-known in the capital and I won’t damage my own reputation over something like a household register. I don’t do things that don’t give me any returns,” Qiao Mei said.
There was a loud announcement about the trains departing in 10 minutes’ time and that passengers whose tickets were not checked yet should get it done quickly or they would run out of time. Xu Ba picked up Li Gui’s luggage and was about to walk into the train station when he suddenly thought of something and hurriedly ran over to Qiao Mei.
“I had wanted to make the arrangements for their accommodation before leaving, but now...” Xu Ba looked at Li Gui and her children in the distance and said pleadingly to Qiao Mei, “Can you help me one more time?”
Xu Ba had thought that Qiao Mei would reject him and did not expect Qiao Mei to agree readily. She said mildly, “No problem.”
“I’m pregnant... The pregnancy isn’t even stable yet! You had obviously wanted to hit me and my husband pushed you away to protect me. How can you hit me when you know that I’m pregnant!” Qiao Mei said weakly.
The people in the crowd who had wanted to stand up for the mother-and-daughter duo immediately turned around to condemn them now. Everyone felt that it was their fault instead.
“But you just said that you wanted to harm us!” Xu Jin said.
“I was just joking with you. How can I really do something like that! Can’t you even take a joke? You’re bullies! You actually want to kill me and my baby!” Qiao Mei said as she held her stomach and pretended to look frightened.
“Who knows that you’re pregnant when you’re not even showing yet. We still don’t know if it’s true!” Cai Ming said.
Qiao Mei did not want to waste any more time with them. She looked at Cai Ming and her daughter and whispered, “We can go and get the register done now. Do you want to come with me or not?”
“We’ll go!” Cai Ming immediately said.
Qiao Mei looked at the jeep parked in the distance and suddenly felt some heartache. She felt upset at the thought of the mother-and-daughter duo sitting in her car. She decided to get Da Zhuang to wash the jeep thoroughly later.
Cai Ming and her daughter were quite lacking in experience. They had only ever taken a bus before. As for such a nice car, they had only ever seen it on the road and never sat in one before. Therefore, the moment the two of them entered the car, they started to touch everything in front of them.
“Don’t touch anything! If anything goes missing, it’s all on you!” Qiao Mei said sulkily.
