Anyone could easily find who Qiao Mei's husband was and how powerful her in-laws were. She did not know what Han Chen was thinking to have the guts to woo her so openly.
However, he actually did not say that he was wooing her. He only sent flowers to let Qiao Mei feel more relaxed at work so that it could better facilitate their collaboration. Since he explained it this way, what reason did Qiao Mei have to reject it?
"This person is really as cunning as his looks! When I first saw him, I thought he looked very much like a fox! Cunning and beautiful and a dangerous character!" Xia He muttered agitatedly.
"You've met him before? When?" Qiao Mei asked curiously.
"A few months ago, at his sister's birthday banquet. She invited Eldest Brother and me. Eldest Brother didn't have time, so he left the social activity to me. I saw him from afar once," Xia He said.
Many of the aristocratic families in the capital knew one another but very superficially. The Xia family liked to be left alone and was not particularly close to any other family, but they would still go through the motions. Before Xia He got married, she was usually the one who went to such events. Anyway, it was just dinner. There was no loss in going. If Xia He was not in the capital, then Xia Wen would attend.
"Let's wait and see. Anyway, he hasn't done anything out of line. The Han Corporation and I still have business together and it's a five-year contract! I don't know why, but Han Chen initially said one year and then suddenly changed his mind and wanted to sign a five-year contract. I really can't turn away from all that money," Qiao Mei said aggrievedly.
Xia He was never worried that Qiao Mei would do anything to let Xia Zhe down, but she still felt worried for Xia Zhe. She did not know when Xia Zhe would be back. If her silly brother still did not come back soon, his wife would get snatched away by someone else!
During this period of time, Xia Zhe was also burning with anxiety. He had just finished his mission and wanted to immediately apply to return to the capital to reunite with Qiao Mei. However, there were many injured soldiers there and his superior could not handle the situation by himself. He still needed Xia Zhe's help to come up with ideas to take care of the injured soldiers.
This time, Xia Zhe had made a huge contribution. Their mission this time was to capture a major drug lord who was hiding around the country. This was an opportunity for the soldiers to make a name for themselves! Based on the plan, they only needed to kill the drug lord. However, Xia Zhe had captured him alive, which was a first-class merit! After returning to the capital, Xia Zhe would get promoted again.
The troops followed the instructions of their superiors and arrived at a village to rest. There was a military hospital here that specialized in treating injured soldiers. Xia Zhe helped to carry the injured soldiers into the medical center. When he looked up, he saw He Mei busy inside. Xia Zhe thought that his eyes were playing tricks on him! After looking a few times, he confirmed that he was not mistaken. It was really He Mei.
He Mei had also seen Xia Zhe. She suppressed the excitement in her heart and focused on helping the injured. He Ning had told her that she must pretend to be unaffected when she saw Xia Zhe. After all, Xia Zhe would only stay here for a short period of time. In order to plan for the long term, she had to be calm and steady.
Zhang Yong was in charge of bringing another team to the neighboring village to rest. Only Zhao Wu accompanied Xia Zhe here. No matter what, He Mei was the daughter of a rich family in the capital. In a crowd, her bearing was obvious and she immediately attracted the attention of many soldiers, including Zhao Wu.
At night, Zhao Wu and Xia Zhe had dinner together. Zhao Wu secretly observed He Mei as she moved around and kept staring at her.
"Brother, don't you think that the nurse is very good-looking!" Zhao Wu asked as he secretly pointed at He Mei.
"Just eat your food!" Xia Zhe said as he tapped on Zhao Wu's bowl impatiently.
"Sigh! You're really boring! I'm just asking. I'm really envious that you have such a good wife like my sister-in-law. I also want to get married. I think that girl is not bad. Help me take a look!" Zhao Wu said.
"You can look at any other woman, but not that one," Xia Zhe said sternly.
Seeing that Xia Zhe did not look like he was joking, Zhao Wu asked curiously, "Why? Have you taken a fancy to this person? Don't tell me you're going to betray my sister-in-law!"
