“Don’t stay in touch with Cui Hua. You become muddle-headed the moment you meet that vixen!” Li Xue said in a disappointed tone.
“You mean this matter is also related to Cui Hua?” Wu Duo asked in shock.
The other three people looked at Wu Duo helplessly. It was really true that no man could resist the charms of a beautiful woman. Xie Jing was very calm that day and it did not feel that it was the first time the two of them met. Cui Hua must have already told Xie Jing the news in advance. Xie Jing had come prepared, which was why he could easily make Wu Duo so angry.
Wu Duo raised his teacup and stood up, saying to everyone, “Using tea instead of wine, I hereby make an oath! If I ever believe Cui Hua again! Then 1 1 m a
“Don’t! You’re insulting a dog by saying such things. You might as well say something more practical, such as helping us with our homework, doing experiments or running errands,” Wang Wei said.
“That’s right! Those are just lame words. We don’t believe you. Just tell us how you will be punished if you believe Cui Hua’s words again!” Li Xue said excitedly.
Qiao Mei was also very interested in this issue. She foresaw that Wu Duo would definitely fall for Cui Hua’s sweet lies again. After all, Cui Hua was smart and skilled. The current Wu Duo was definitely no match for her.
“I…I’ll fetch water for each of you for a month!” Wu Duo said through gritted teeth.
“No problem!” Li Xue said happily.
“I agree too!” Wang Wei said.
“But I don’t live in the dormitory. How about this, if you lose, come over during the summer break to change my son’s diapers for one month. What do you think?” Qiao Mei asked.
Wu Duo looked at the cute Xia Yue in Qiao Mei t s arms and said, “No problem!
One month is nothing! Even half a year is fine! Who wouldn’t like our Xia Yue?”
Wu Duo was the only son in the family and did not need to take care of any younger siblings. Wang Wei and Li Xue were the eldest in their families and each had many younger siblings. They all knew what a tough task it was to change diapers for a baby.
“You… you can do it… I wish you success…” Li Xue said as she held back her laughter.
“l wish you success too,” Wang Wei said.
“Why do the two of you have such expressions? Is changing diapers something difficult to do?” Wu Duo asked with a confused expression.
“It’s fine. You’ll know when the time comes,” Wang Wei comforted him.
After discussing their plans for next week, they all headed home. On Monday, Wu Duo arrived at Xie Jings classroom on time and started chasing him for payment. He wanted to make sure that everyone around him could hear what he was doing here.
Xie Jing looked nonchalant on the surface, but he was actually feeling very anxious inside. The more Wu Duo acted matter-of-factly, the more it felt like he was the one in the wrong. As time passed, all his previous efforts would be in vain. This matter had to be resolved as soon as possible.
With Wu Duo’s brains, he could not have come up with these schemes. Could it be that all these were planned by the woman who was next to him? Was that woman Wu Duo’s girlfriend?
Xie Jing told Cui Hua about all his doubts and queries and asked her to investigate everything clearly. That night, Xie Jing waited at home for Cui Hua to return. She only reached home very late at night.
“Have you managed to check on those things?” Xie Jing asked.
There were all sorts of sensational news about Qiao Mei and one did not need to check too carefully to know about them. Cui Hua took a sip of water and said, “That woman’s name is Qiao Mei. She’s this year’s top scorer in the college entrance examination and she’s also the Xia family’s daughter-in-law.”
“Xia family? Are you talking about that famous Xia family?” Xie Jings father, Xie Kun, asked.
“Yes, I heard that it’s the Xia family who’s active in the military. Looks like it,” Cui Hua said.
Xie Kun immediately became agitated. He grabbed Xie Jings shoulder and said, “What’s your relationship with this Qiao Mei?”
“We’re just schoolmates,” Xie Jing said in pain.
“You must build a good relationship with this woman! If the Xia family can find me a job, I’ll be able to soar through the ranks ! Do you remember that!”
Xie Kun instructed.
“Got it,” Xie Jing said impatiently.
As if he did not want to get close to Qiao Mei? However, given his current situation, befriending Qiao Mei would be as difficult as ascending to heaven!
There was no right move he could make now. How did that kid Wu Duo get to know Qiao Mei?
Xie Jing pulled Cui Hua into the room next door and asked softly, “How did Wu Duo and Qiao Mei get to know each other?”
