The Shao family was completely flustered by now. They had never imagined that Xia Xing would suddenly become so responsible and firm. Shao Yin had always told her family that Xia Xing was submissive and easy to control, which was why they dared to come to the Xia family to demand an explanation.

In fact, Xia Xing was really fond of Shao Yin back then and the two of them got along very well. He had thought that they would be able to live happily ever after, but he did not expect that Shao Yin did not like him at all. She was only doing everything for the benefits.

He was not a fool. He knew that he had Xia Wen and Qiao Mei to thank for his current job and house. If not for the two of them, he would probably be begging by the roadside now. It was only because of their help that Xia Xing was able to see through the Shao family’s scheme. No matter how much of an asshole Xia Xing was, he would not forget the help that Xia Wen and Qiao Mei had given him.

If he really married Shao Yin, how was he supposed to face Xia Wen? How could that not make Xia Wen feel embarrassed? It would also mean that all Qiao Mei’s planning and efforts had all gone down the drain.

“Stop all your pretenses! Let me tell you! You must acknowledge this child! You must also marry my daughter in a grand manner! If you don’t acknowledge the child, we have plenty of ways to make you do it! The Xia family doesn’t own the entire capital! There is definitely a way for us to seek justice!” Shao Zhuang said agitatedly.

Qiao Mei shook her head helplessly. There was no way to do a paternity test in the country at the moment. Those supposed tests from ancient times using drops of blood in water were useless. In this era, there was no way to prove that this was not Xia Xings child. It was not as if they could go overseas to find a professional organization to verify this matter.

There was already no evidence left behind from the incident back then. The glass tainted with drugs and the other evidence had all been destroyed. Who would have thought that the Shao family would make a comeback? Qiao Mei and Xia Wen knew that they had been too careless. They should have made the family sign an agreement back then so that these people would not be able to cause any more trouble.

It seemed that they had no way of rejecting this matter.

“How about this? You must be tired after coming all the way here. I’ll arrange for someone to send you to the guest house for the night. You have to give Xia Xing some time to digest all this information. Two days. Our family will definitely give you an answer within two days,” Xia Wen said.

“Hmph! Are you sure you can speak for the family!” Shao Zhuang questioned.

“I’m sure I can speak for the family. Give us some time and rest assure that we won’t shortchange you. If we lie, you can go and look for Xia Xing! We definitely won’t stop you! At that time, you can decide what you want to do with him,” Xia Jun said sulkily.

“Alright! We believe what you say! Don’t go back on your word!”

Xia Wen asked Luo Yu to arrange for transport to send the Shao family to the guest house. After they left, the house was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ Noᴠᴇlꜰire.nᴇt

The Xia family had never encountered such a situation in all these years. Although there were some minor conflicts in the past, it had never led to such an unhappy situation.

Just as everyone was hesitating about whether to have their meal, Xia Xing picked up her spoon and said in a crisp voice, “Great-grandfather! Rice! Eat!”

Xia Jun’s gloomy face instantly lit up with a smile. He looked at Xia Xing tenderly and said, “Great-grandfather’s darling great-grandchild!

Great-grandfather will eat now! Everyone, let’s eat. Don’t be angry anymore.

No human can survive without food. How can we handle problems if we don’t eat?”

“Everyone, come on!” Xu Lan called out.

Xia Jun looked at Xia Guang and Xia Xing and said resignedly, “This is all I can do to help you. You can think about the rest yourselves. You are both not kids anymore. Take responsibility for what you’ve done and don’t bother me anymore. No matter what decision you make, I will support it.”

“l understand, Grandfather…” Xia Xing said.

Xia Guang remained silent as he sat down and ate. Xia Jun could not be bothered with him and everyone put on a cheerful face to finish the meal. After dinner, Xia Guang left with Xia Xing while the rest stayed at Xu Lan’s house to countdown to the new year.

News of such a thing happening to the Xia family during the new year spread through the streets and alleys very quickly. The rumors regarding Xia Wen and Xia Xing from some time ago were brought up again, so Qiao Mei quickly brought Xia Jun to stay at the courtyard house. It was quieter there and there were less gossipy people around. She did not want these people to make Xia Jun so angry that he got stricken by his old ailments again.

For the next two days, everyone waited to see what Xia Xing would choose to do, whether he would marry Shao Yin or chase the entire Shao family away..
