Once He Ning knew what she had done, she would not be able to get her way in the He family ever again.
He Mei had always relied on the fact that she was the eldest and only daughter of the He family to look down on everyone. Even He Ning had to dote on her. If she wanted something, there was nothing that He Ning would not agree to give her.
The reason was because she was not married and had not snagged Xia Zhe yet. They all had the same goals, so they indulged her so much.
If He Ning came back and found out that the Xia family had become an enemy and there was no way the two families could become relatives, she would soon be arranged to marry someone else. At that time, she would not have any choice over the matter.
All this while, she had always understood that she was an object that the He family used to consolidate their status. It was not up to her to decide who she should marry.
