"Fine, fine, fine. Don't worry, Xia Zhe. I'll try to find out more about Qiao Mei's situation. Don't be anxious," Wang Qin said pretentiously.
Qiao Mei kicked the door open and said, "What do you need to find out?"
Wang Qin froze on the spot with the phone in her hand. Why was she here!
She also saw the livid Zhao Liang behind Qiao Mei. Wang Qin immediately understood that this was all a trick. They were lying to her! They were playing her like a fool!
"You! You tricked me!" Wang Qin roared at Qiao Mei.
"What trick? Didn't you tell Xia Zhe you will find out more about my situation? Have you lost your mind? What are you talking about?" Qiao Mei was confused and did not know what Wang Qin was talking about.
She had only heard Wang Qin's last sentence and did not know anything about what happened earlier.
However, Wang Qin felt that this was all a scheme that Xia Zhe, Qiao Mei and Zhao Liang had come up with to trick her!
Qiao Mei was a vicious and scheming person. This was definitely all part of her scheme! This matter was not caused by her own greed! It was all part of the evil Qiao Mei's scheme!
That was definitely the case!
Just as Wang Qin was doubting herself, Qiao Mei snatched the phone from her hand. She did not have time to argue with Wang Qin about this. The bill for this phone call was very expensive and she was the one who had to pay for it. Her heart ached for the amount of money.
"Hello, are you still there? I'm Qiao Mei," Qiao Mei said gently.
"Are you alright?" Xia Zhe asked nervously.
Although what Wang Qin said was just a lie, he was still worried about Qiao Mei. What if something really happened? If he had not made an appointment with Uncle Zhao today, then if Wang Qin had just given him more details just now, she might have gotten away with it.
Being concerned made one unable to think straight.
"Of course I'm fine! Silly man!" Qiao Mei said.
"I'm just concerned about you and worried that something had happened to you," Xia Zhe said with a sigh.
Qiao Mei deliberately said loudly into the phone, "What did she say to you? The moment I entered, she started barking like a mad dog."
"Nothing much, just that you went to the village clinic and needed a lot of money. She asked me to send you the money quickly. That's all," Xia Zhe said honestly.
Money? She had always known that Wang Qin was greedy, but why was Wang Qin all about money recently?
In the past, Wang Qin was only greedy for petty gains, such as giving herself a few more work points and taking more vegetables.
If Xia Zhe really believed Wang Qin, the amount of money he sent over would definitely be quite a big sum. If she was found guilty of fraud, they would definitely be able to send her to jail.
The amount of 1,000 dollars during this time was more than equivalent to 1 million dollars after 50 years.
Wang Qin was really bold. Could it be that she needed the money for something else?
However, Xia Zhe's performance was not bad either. He even had the patience to put on an act with Wang Qin. He showed promise!
"Alright, got it. Then why are you looking for me so urgently?" Qiao Mei said.
"I've already reached the army unit safely. I want to discuss something with you. I can't make a decision on my own," Xia Zhe said hesitantly.
Qiao Mei took a stool from the side and sat down to talk to Xia Zhe on the phone.
Wang Qin returned to her seat dejectedly. Zhao Liang looked at her even more fiercely. In the past, he only felt that everything was all Qiao Zhuang's fault, but he did not expect Wang Qin to be the same kind of person as that brute!
In the future, he would definitely need to be more wary of Wang Qin and not let her hurt Qiao Mei.
"I never expect there will come a day when you're unable to decide. Tell me about it," Qiao Mei said smugly.
"Aunt called uncle and asked him to inform me that my mother's condition is not very good at the moment. There's nothing wrong with her health, but she has been feeling depressed and crying every day. She's also worried about your health," Xia Zhe said.
Qiao Mei did not expect herself to be so important to Xu Lan now. It was just that she did not know the progress of the matter in the capital yet, so they still had to let Xu Lan suffer for a few more days.
"The postman hasn't come by this month. I prepared something for mother, but I haven't had the chance to send it out. I have to wait until the end of the month. Why don't you give her a call to comfort her?" Qiao Mei said.
Xia Zhe was silent for a long time. He was in a dilemma about how to talk to Xu Lan.
"Don't tell me you dare not make the call," Qiao Mei asked suspiciously.
