Chapter 1412 Caught in Bed
Qiao Mei nudged Xia He and asked curiously, "Can you make out what they're doing? Why does it seem to me that they don't look agitated at all? They're just screaming."
"Then how do you want them to act? Do you think they're acting in a stage play now? Aren't these considered very normal reactions? I actually think that they're acting very well! Don't tell me you know how people should react in such a situation?" Xia He said laughingly.
These words immediately reminded Qiao Mei of the morning after her passionate night with Xia Zhe. After that, Xia Zhe had bade farewell to Qiao Qiang in a hurry and did not even look at Qiao Mei with a nice expression.
Qiao Qiang also felt very uncomfortable as he listened in. At that time, he had almost acted in the same way to catch the couple in the act.
"What do I know? You're spouting nonsense…" Qiao Mei said awkwardly.
"I'm just joking… But what are these people from the Shao family doing?" Xia He asked curiously. When the courtyard house was rebuilt, Qiao Mei had made sure that there was thorough soundproofing done to all the rooms. At the moment, the three people in the room could only guess what the Shao family was doing based on their expressions, but they could not hear anything at all.
"What exactly did Eldest Brother tell you? What kind of plan did he have in mind?" Xia He asked as she looked at Qiao Mei.
"Eldest Brother didn't tell me anything! He just asked me to wait for his cue and be on standby to help him," Qiao Mei said. What Qiao Mei said was indeed the truth, but she was not like Xia He who did not know anything. She had even "seen" the entire process.
"Then let's wait and see. If anything happens, the Shao family will definitely come and get us," Xia He said.
The man's back was facing the door, so no one could see his face. They could only see his bare back. Shao Chun and Huang Ning did not dare to turn the man around to see if it was Xia Wen. Between the two of them, one was Shao Yin's aunt and the other was her aunt-in-law. They should not be the ones to take charge of this matter since Shao Yin's mother was here as well.
However, the man's build bore some resemblance to Xia Wen. It was likely to be him! Now, they just needed to get Bian Duo to come in and confirm it. After that, the deal was done!
Shao Chun hurriedly looked at Bian Duo, who was still standing outside, and said, "Sister-in-law! Quick, come and take a look! Oh my goodness!"
Only then did Bian Duo realize that it was her turn to perform. She rushed into the room and almost tripped over the door threshold! Luckily, Shao Chun was there to catch hold of her.
"This… this… what exactly is going on! Where are the Xia family members! Is there anyone around! Someone!" Bian Duo shouted in a panic as she went around the house looking for the other people.
"It's time!" Qiao Mei said.
The two of them hurriedly ran out of Qiao Qiang's room. Qiao Mei looked at Bian Duo with a panicked expression and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Look at what your family has done! You're just a junior and we don't want to talk to you! Ask your mother-in-law to come over! You have to give us an explanation for this!" Shao Chun said domineeringly. As she became more agitated, she even pushed Qiao Mei's shoulder, almost causing Qiao Mei to fall over.
"What are you doing! Why are you getting physical! My mother is already asleep at this time. If you have something to say, you can say it to me," Xia He said furiously.
"As if you can make decisions on behalf of the Xia family! I want to talk to your mother!" After saying that, Shao Chun pointed at Xia He and continued, "If you don't want to get her! Then I'll look for her myself!"
By now, Xu Lan and Liu Fen had already put on their cloaks and rushed to the backyard. The two of them had gone to bed early, but when they heard the commotion in the backyard, they had to come and see what was going on.
"What happened? Why are you so angry?" Xu Lan asked.
"Come and see what your Xia family has done! They're already getting married soon! Yet Xia Xing is so impatient! Is this the kind of good upbringing the Xia family has!" Shao Chun pointed at Xu Lan and roared.
Xu Lan frowned unhappily. She had never been pointed at and scolded in this manner in her entire life. How could Shao Chun have the guts to dare to speak to her like this!
"Speak clearly. Tell me, what exactly has our Xia family done and what has Xia Xing done?" Xu Lan said.
"Hmph! Do you still need me to spell it out! Go and take a look for yourself!" Shao Chun made way for Xu Lan and Liu Fen. The two women took two steps forward and saw a man and a woman lying on the bed.
