Xia Guang was already feeling very embarrassed when he saw Zhou Hua trying to fight with Qiao Mei. Now that Zhou Hua was behaving like a crazy woman, he felt even more ashamed. He quickly shielded Tang Hui behind him and used his other hand to block Zhou Hua, but he did not expect to use too much strength and pushed Zhou Hua to the floor.

Zhou Hua looked at Xia Guang in shock and said, “You actually hit me! You actually hit me for this b*tch! We were married for so long and you had never hit me before! Now, you actually hit me because of an outsider!”

“Before the two of you got a divorce, Third Brother was always outstation. He just did not have a chance to beat you,” Xu Lan stood beside Qiao Mei and muttered in disdain.

Qiao Mei covered her mouth and smiled. She did not expect Xu Lan to be so sharp with her words at times. Qiao Mei moved her chin and Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang restrained Zhou Hua again. Tang Hui tugged at the corner of Xia Guang’s shirt and said, “Brother Xia, don’t be angry. She has misunderstood us. Let’s talk to her properly and the misunderstanding will be resolved.”

She looked so pitiful that anyone would feel very sorry for her. Her hair was all messy from Zhou Hua’s beating and there were some scratches on her face and neck. There were even some traces of blood seeping out of the more serious wounds. Xia Guang felt very apologetic towards her. He decided to bring her to the hospital to disinfect and bandage her wounds and they left without looking back.

Qiao Mei looked at Zhou Hua and said, “They’re already gone, so you can stop shouting. I’ll ask the two of them to let go of you now, but if you continue to make threatening gestures, I’ll get the mall security officers to detain you and send you to the police station!”

Zhou Hua looked at Qiao Mei indignantly. She raised her head and did not say anything, but Qiao Mei could tell from the look in her eyes that she would not launch an attack again.

Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang only let go of Zhou Hua when Qiao Mei and Xu Lan were about to step out of the mall. Seeing that the drama had ended, the crowd dispersed.

As Xu Lan did not manage to do her shopping today, she sat in the front passenger seat in annoyance and said, “Let’s come out again another day. It’s really an unlucky day today! Why did we run into this lunatic!”

“Mother, don’t be angry anymore. Didn’t we also get to see Third Uncle’s family making a fool of themselves?” Qiao Mei said happily.

“It looks like Third Brother really likes Tang Hui. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have protected her like that just now,” Xu Lan said happily.

“Not really. Third Uncle just feels apologetic towards Tang Hui. Besides, between a cultured and knowledgeable lady and a crazy woman who goes around scolding people on the streets, anyone would choose the former,” Qiao Mei said.

Xu Lan nodded in agreement. If it was her, she would also choose Tang Hui. She just did not know the background of this Tang Hui and whether she would do anything to the Xia family. If Tang Hui turned out to be a wolf in sheep’s clothing, the Xia family would be caught in another bloodbath again.

Based on Xia Guang’s personality, if he really liked Tang Hui, he would have long informed Xia Jun of his intention to get married. She had heard from Xia You that the couple had known each other for quite a while but there had been no progression. It was likely that neither of them wanted to raise the issue yet.

Qiao Mei could not tell what was on Xu Lan’s mind. After driving Xu Lan home, she immediately went to the teachers’ dormitory next to Seventh High. She quietly parked her car in a corner and waited for Tang Hui to get home.

As the sky darkened, Xia Guang sent Tang Hui home in a gentlemanly manner. The two of them exchanged a few words before he left. Qiao Mei quickly got out of the car and walked over to Tang Hui.

“Hello again,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“Did you come specially to look for me?” Tang Hui asked in a gentle tone.

“Yes. Is it convenient for me to go upstairs for a chat? I’ve waited very long and I need to drink some water,” Qiao Mei said.

Tang Hui turned to the side to make way for Qiao Mei. She pointed towards the stairwell and said, “Of course you’re welcome. Please come in.”

This neighborhood was very big and almost all the high school teachers in this area lived here. This particular dormitory was specially built for outstanding teachers from Seventh High. It looked like Tang Hui was a respected teacher in Seventh High.

Tang Hui’s house was located at one end of the second floor. The house was not considered small and the floor area was about 70 square meters. The moment she opened the door, Qiao Mei heard a soft “meow” inside the house.

“I’m sorry! I forgot to tell you. This is my cat, Cotton. Are you afraid of cats?” Tang Hui picked up Cotton quickly and looked at Qiao Mei apologetically.

“It’s fine. I like small animals very much. I have two dogs at home. It’s just that I have too many children and it’s not a good idea to raise cats, so this plan has to be put on hold,” Qiao Mei said.

“That’s true. Cats have claws. It won’t be good if they scratch the children,” Tang Hui said.

“Actually, that’s not the case. I’m just worried that my three cheeky monkeys will keep pulling the kitten’s tail or drag it around. It won’t be good if they hurt the kitten,” Qiao Mei said, looking troubled.
