Qiang walked out of Grandpa Zheng's office and jump around the hallway. He quickly texted Xiulan about what happened.
"Why are you looking so happy?" Qiang stops and looks at his back only to see his sister, who just came back from abroad.
Qiang smirks.
"Well, I am the newly appointed director of the company. Shouldn't I be happy?"
Zheng Mingxia is a year older than Xiaohui. She studied abroad upon receiving a scholarship from a foreign school.
She was supposed to study with Xiaohui but the girl declined because of her father's request for her to marry Meixiu which made Mingxia study happily.
She finished her study 2 years ago but didn't go home as she landed a job at a company. Mingxia is a beautiful lady but not as beautiful as Xiaohui.
If she's always with Xiaohui, she was always behind the girl in terms of beauty. Mingxia is envious of Xiaohui's beauty.
Upon hearing this, Mingxia smiles as she nodded and patted her older brother's shoulder.
"Go on and always step down on Xiaohui and her wife."
"Yeah. This will be the first you'll see her wife right?"
"Of course, I heard she's useless and only knows how to do chores."
"Right, and it's so fun to always insult her. She doesn't give any expression."
Mingxia nodded at the information she gathered. She did hear about Meixiu, the girl doesn't seem to care about their insults about her but just doesn't insult her wife.

"Meixiu! Wake up! Let's go and buy things at the market!"
Meixiu opens her eyes only to see Xiaohui's looking down at her. Xiaohui's face got a wide smile and a friendly look.
She blushes upon realizing that she's too close to the taller girl making her stand up and walk around the bed.
"It's still early, go to sleep first then we'll go later."
"Didn't you know that the foods are cheaper if we got early?"
"I know but I'm still tired."
"Then don't get up, let's divorce then."
As fast as a cheetah, Meixiu stands up and fixes her bed. She smiles widely at Xiaohui who's looking at her amused.
"Let's go to the market then."
As soon as she finishes talking, she quickly gets her clothes and walks inside the bathroom. Xiaohui just continues to look at her.
"Did Dad threaten her?"
-
"Xiaohui, the party is later right? Did have a dress already?" Xiaowen asks her daughter. Xiaohui shakes her making Xiaowen look at her.
"What are you still doing!? You should be beautiful later tonight because you are the newly appointed director!"
"Mom, I will be going to the mall later and buying a new dress. I might as well buy Meixiu a new suit."
"Why do you care much about that bastard? She can buy her own using her money" Xiaohui looks at Meixiu.
"Mom, you do know I only gave her money for food! Sometimes I did gave her some money but she might already spend it" Xiaowen looks at Meixiu.
"Bastard! Don't let my daughter buy you things! Better give her something!"
"Xiaowen, stop it already. I kept hearing you say that for the last 4 years" Grandma Peng said.
"Mom, I'm right anyway. This useless wife of Xiaohui is just here to eat and get money-"
"Mom, stop with your accusations. I know Meixiu more than you because back when Dad is still alive, he said that Meixiu should always stay by my side."
Xiaowen could only nod her head as she finishes her food.
"I'll go now. My friends ask for my presence."
With saying that, she walks out of their house and slams the door. Xiaohui looks at her side, seeing Meixiu slowly eating her food.
"Meixiu, eat more food. Xiaohui just mentioned that you two will be going out" Meixiu looks up and smiles at Grandma Peng.
"Of course, Grand-"
Meixiu's phone rang inside her pocket. Xiaohui raises her eyebrows when she heard her wife's phone ringing.
"Go on and answer that."
"Ah, excuse me."
Meixiu stands up from her chair and brings out her phone. She furrows her eyebrows upon seeing Yanlin's name on the screen.
She walks inside the bedroom and closes the door, hitting the green button to answer the call.
"Young Master, I heard from Wenqian that you will announce your identity at the party."
"Ah, I feel like Xiaohui needs to know everything so I hope nothing goes wrong."
"Master Ren just wanted to warn you to be careful. His sister has eyes everywhere and she is a very dangerous woman."
"I'll take note of that."
"If you will reveal yourself later, Master Ren might fly there by tomorrow and meet your wife."
"I think we three can have meetings together. I'll go now, my wife is probably waiting outside."
"Of course! Young Master, you can go."
Meixiu hangs up the call and put it inside her pocket. She walk out and saw that Xiaohui and Grandma Peng is already cleaning up.
"Do you still want to eat your leftover?"
"I'm full already, Baby. I'll just wash the dishes before we go ok?"
"Meixiu, I can take care of it" Grandma Peng suggested which Meixiu smiled at.
"Grandma Peng, I'll do it myself. You can just rest and it'll only take me some time" Meixiu said, walking towards Grandma Peng and grabbing the dishes.
"What are you saying? I insist so go on and leave already. Xiaohui and you still need to look good later."
"Meixiu, let's go now. Grandma is stubborn."
"Yeah, just like you" Meixiu smiles at Xiaohui. The smaller girl glared at her before approaching her and slapping her shoulder.
"What are you saying? I'm not stubborn!"
"Lovebirds, go on and leave. I still need to do the dishes!"
-
"Baby! That red dress will look good on you!" Meixiu dragged Xiaohui towards the store where she saw the dress.
"That's a bit revealing for my taste."
"It'll be fine! Don't you want to doll yourself up? I bet I will fall more for you!"
"Stop with the bluffing! Why do you always need to say that?"
Meixiu looks at Xiaohui and smiles teasingly.
"Why? Am I making your heart flutter?"
Xiaohui's face turns stoic making Meixiu clear her throat and smile nervously.
"I'm just joking but let's go! I want that dress for you" Meixiu dragged Xiaohui inside.
"Welcome, do you need any assistance?" A sales lady greeted them.
"I wanted that dress for my wife, can we see it?" The saleslady's face turns serious at Meixiu's request.
"Ma'am, I'm sorry but it was ordered already" Meixiu's smile faded.
"Is that so? It's fine, we'll just look for other dresses" Xiaohui quickly said and drag Meixiu away from the sales lady.
"Baby, that dress-"
"Stop it already, we might get in trouble again. Good thing Duyi is a kind man."
"But-"
"Nope, I'll look for a dress my own."
After saying that, Xiaohui walks away from Meixiu. The tall girl could only look at her back before she sighs and looked for her clothes.
She walk around for a while and saw a stunning blue suit with black polo underneath. She approaches it and nodded her head before looking for a saleslady.
But as she turn around, she met Tingfeng's eyes looking at her in confusion.
"What are you doing at this kind of store?" Tingfeng's cold voice roams around their area.
Meixiu's smiling face turned serious as she came face to face with Tingfeng. She quickly looks around not seeing her wife before looking back at Tingfeng.
"I'm here to buy a suit, do you have a problem with that?"
"Of course I do! The clothes around cost thousands of Yuan! Do you have the money to buy it?"
"Excuse me? But what could be the cause of the problem here?" A manager suddenly approaches them upon hearing Tingfeng yell.
"Why is this store ok with beggars like her? Don't you know she doesn't have any money and might steal something!"
The manager looks at Meixiu's clothes. He quickly nodded and call for the guards so they can drag Meixiu out.
The girl seems unhappy with the manager's action and quickly held her hand up for the guards to stop.
"Are you seriously believing him? I can afford anything in this store and can even buy this whole store!"
"Are you bragging? What's gotten onto you now? Another show?" Tingfeng asks with a smirk on his face.
"I'm telling the truth! If you don't believe me then don't but I'll buy this suit."
"Where's your money then? If this is the cause of Zheng Company getting a contract from the Sapphire Group, I might just call someone and cancel the contract!"
"What are you saying? My wife works hard to get that contract! Don't you dare!"
