Chapter 1185: But Deep Love (1)
When Xia Yunshu heard the other party mention the He brothers, a sincere smile appeared on his face. He nodded slightly and walked towards his parking space.
When Mrs. Wen saw this scene, she immediately thought that this "Mr. He" must be very important to Xia Yunshu.
Gao Ping saw the old woman through the rearview mirror. She looked thoughtful and felt a little annoyed for a moment. He shouldn't have mentioned the He brothers in front of her.
However, the two did not think too long. After all, while they were still thinking of something, Xia Qianmu had already gotten into the car.
"Mr. Xia!" Gao Ping greeted.
"Well! Let's drive! Yunshu should have given you a seat at the restaurant!" Xia Qianmu took a bottle of plum juice from the car refrigerator and asked the people around him, "Madam Wen, would you like some too? It's for anthocyanin supplements!"
Old Madam Wen looked at her former daughter-in-law. Perhaps because they hadn't seen each other for so long, she couldn't find any similarities between this person and the one in her memory.
"You...you!" Madam Wen pointed at Xia Qianmu for a long time before asking, "Weren't you blonde before? And your eyes weren't this color either."
"It's just hair dye and colored contact lenses!" Xia Qianmu shrugged. "Mine is an exchange student from abroad. It shouldn't be a problem if I just disguise my appearance a little bit!"
Xia Qianmu glanced at Madam Wen, changing his usual steady expression and deliberately using the action that the other party disliked the most - "tsk tsk" twice.
When Madam Wen frowned, she smiled and said, "After all these years, you still dislike me. It's a pity that the offense and defense have changed now.
Not only can you not do anything to me, but you also have to live your life according to my mood. Isn't it very frustrating?"
Restraining her anger, Madam Wen gritted her teeth and said, "How could that be! After all, we are family, not enemies. What's the point of attacking or defending?"
"I used to think Wen Shixu's adaptability might have been inherited from his father! After all, you're well-known for your dominance and arrogance." Xia Qianmu continued to provoke Madam Wen, "But today, I realized that you two really are mother and son! You look so alike!"
"How dare you!" Madam Wen, unable to hold back any longer, finally exploded. "No matter what, I'm your elder. How can you speak to me like that?"
Xia Qianmu didn't react differently to Madam Wen's change of attitude. Instead, he nodded and said, "That's right! I'm not used to what you did just now. Tell me! Why did you come to see me?"
Madam Wen didn't say anything, just looked at her.
"You don't have much time. From the moment you get in the car until dinner is over, you need to think carefully about your answer!" Xia Qianmu glanced out the window. "Of course, even if you make a request, I may not agree to it."
There was no conversation along the way, and the car soon arrived at the restaurant, which was a Western restaurant.
After the two of them sat down, Xia Qianmu didn't ask Madam Wen about her preferences, but directly ordered a medium-rare steak for her - with black pepper flavor.
Having lived abroad for a long time, Xia Qianmu could completely accept steaks still covered in blood.
But
"You did it on purpose!" Old Madam Wen covered her mouth with her hands. She couldn't eat a single bite of the half-cooked beef.
"This is good stuff, beef!" Xia Qianmu's tone was exaggerated, but he didn't even raise his head. "It tastes better with blood! Back then, when you asked me to eat shrimp shells to supplement calcium, you only cared about the nutrition and never considered the taste.
By the way, when you thought my daughter was too fat and asked her to control her diet, didn’t you also say it was for her own good? Madam Wen, when you do good for others, they should accept it completely. But when others do good for you, you pick and choose. That’s not good!
"There's no point in talking about what you said and did!" Old Madam Wen finally understood that Xia Qianmu had always only wanted to humiliate her and had no intention of letting the Wen family go.
"You guys are the ones who did this. It's too late to talk to me now!" Xia Qianmu put down the knife and fork in his hand, "I left my daughter in the Wen family just because I kept her with me and treated her badly, not because I really didn't want her.
If you had treated her well and let her grow up without worries, I might not have done anything to you, but you didn't cherish this opportunity! This time, we will settle all our grudges, both new and old, and no one can escape!"
Frightened by the hatred in Xia Qianmu's eyes, Madam Wen still stubbornly said, "Do you really think that no one can compete with the Xia family? Our Wen family has been operating here for so many years, we always have allies. Not to mention other families, even the Pei family will keep you busy for a long time!"
"Okay! I'll wait!" Xia Qianmu was not afraid at all.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wen knew there was no need to continue the conversation, so she picked up her phone and called her personal assistant, asking him to pick her up at the restaurant.
Xia Qianmu continued to eat without being affected. After everyone left, she called her daughter and said, "It's time to close in on the Pei family!"
