Give Me Your Hands and Marry Me

Chapter 101



Chapter 101 Have You Ever Seen a Thief Live with a Policeman?

For Bai Lu to appear in the Xia family, A Miao was not at all surprised.

“We’re all family members. No formalities, please!” Xia Haixin called everyone to the table.

A Miao wondered why Xia Mei was not here. And as if she saw her suspicion, Xia Wan took the initiative to say, “Xia Mei has gone abroad. Her mother’s health is not very good. They will not come back for the Spring Festival this year.”

“It is better if that girl is not here, lest she talks all the time.” Yao Lili looked at Xia Haixin with a disgusted expression. “I didn’t speak about the second brother, he can come back alone! How can he not come back for two years? People will say that we dislike him.”

Xia Haixin shot her a glare. “Speak less.”

“Mom!” Xia wan smiled. “Eat quickly. Don’t you have an appointment to play mahjong later?”

While saying this, she kicked Yao Lili under the table.

Yao Lili gave two quick laughs and did not dare speak again.

“Xinglan, let’s invite your father to dinner later!” As soon as Xia Yongqiang opened his mouth, A Miao wanted to spit on his face.

Shen Xinglan put the peeled shrimp into A Miao’s bowl and said lightly, “Yes, if Master Xia sets the time, I will inform him.”

“Youran and Xia Wan will get married this spring. I want to talk to your father about your wedding.” Xia Yongqiang knew that he would not have the opportunity to speak to Shen Xinglan after today, therefore he had to say everything he could.

A Miao gave Xia Yongqiang a blank expression. “I haven’t graduated from college yet, so I can’t get married.”

“I won’t let you marry immediately; after all, you are younger than Xia Wan. My opinion is there should be an engagement ceremony. The last time…”

Xia Yongqiang did not go on. Everyone here knew that the last engagement banquet was originally held for Shen Xinglan and Xia Wan.

“Hahaha! Grandpa Xia, you are really impatient.” Bai Lu, who had not spoken for a long time, said, “It takes two people to decide to get married. What if one of them doesn’t want to marry?”

She looked at Shen Xinglan and said, “Am I right?”

“Master Xia, I agree with what you said. Our marriage can wait until A Miao has graduated, but the engagement ceremony does need to be held.” Shen Xinglan grabbed A Miao’s hand. “I don’t want to wrong her!”

A Miao was very cooperative by acting a little shy…

“…” Bai Lu almost broke the chopsticks as she stabbed the fish in the bowl to pieces with a black face.

In any case, it was his younger sister. Bai Youran had to open his mouth to help out Bai Lu. “Lulu, don’t worry about it. If you have the time, you should find someone to marry!”

“I have found someone.” Bai Lu smiled and lowered her head.

From the bottom of her heart, Xia Wan really despised Bai Youran’s sister, but they all had the same enemy; that is, A Miao. So this time, it was natural to help Bai Lu speak.

“Youran, don’t ask in front of so many people, how embarrassing! Everyone, hurry and eat, it will get cold soon.”

Next, Xia Yongqiang kept chatting with Shen Xinglan—a wily old fox and an extremely cruel, merciless one. Nobody had gained an advantage after several rounds.

“So, does the Ji Corp really plan to invest in the reclamation project next year?”

Shen Xinglan lifted the corner of his mouth. “I’m not sure.”

“Haha, rest assured, I’m not going to touch it. I’m just a little worried. I heard that the government is going to introduce some foreign capital. I’m afraid the bidding amount will double.”

“We’ll talk about it then.” Shen Xinglan bowed his head and filled a bowl of soup for A Miao. “Are you full?”

A Miao nodded. “If I eat any more, I will vomit.”

Yao Lili beside her rolled her eyes and thought, “You were really raised uneducated!”

“A Miao, you are now a wealthy housewife. You should also pay attention to how you speak.” Bai Lu could not help speaking again.

Shen Xinglan rubbed her hand. “I like her to talk like that.”

Bai Lu had a green and white face, and in the end, regardless of the look in Bai Youran’s eyes, she threw the chopsticks and left the table.

“She left?” A Miao said suddenly and loudly.

Xia Wan squeezed out a smile. “Don’t argue with her. I’ll have Youran talk to her later.”

“No.” Amau shook his head. “What I meant was, since someone has left the table, then we have to go as well.”

Shen Xinglan nodded slightly. “It’s almost over. A Miao, you make a phone call Shen I in.”

Xia Yongqiang’s face was red, but it happened that he could not say anything. Bai Youran had a face full of resentment looking at Shen Xinglan. Xia Haixin wanted to say something to keep them from leaving, but saw A Miao half-smiling, so he shut up.

He was not as shameless as Xia Yongqiang who knew exactly A Miao’s attitude to the Xia family but still put up with it.

“A Miao!” As she was leaving, Xia Wan chased after her.

Shen I and Shen II were about to lift Shen Xinglan into the car while A Miao held the car door open and looked at her.

“You …” Xia Wan said with great determination, “Be careful of Bai Lu. She has changed into another person since she came back. I think she will definitely not let you go for the sake of Shen Xinglan.”

A Miao smiled. “These are not like the words that come out of your mouth.”

“In any case, we are bleeding half the same blood. I can’t watch you suffer,” Xia Wan said as she moved back a few steps.

A Miao said nothing and turned and got in the car.

“Are you really full?” Shen Xinglan took her hand and put it on his face.

“No.” A Miao curled her lip. “How could I eat with those people?”

Shen Xinglan kissed her hand. “We’ll go home and eat. Le Yi and Ouyang are waiting.”

“Mmm!” A Miao hugged the cushion. “Did you hear what Xia Wan said just now?”

I heard it.” Shen Xinglan said with a mocking smile, “She’s afraid.”

A Miao frowned. “Afraid of what?”

“Xia Wan is not smart enough, but she knows exactly what she wants.” Shen Xinglan drew A Miao into his arms. “What she needs now is the support of the Bai family, so she must marry Bai Youran.”

A Miao still did not understand. “But what does that have to do with Bai Lu?”

“Bai Lu killed someone abroad.” Shen Xinglan spoke with an astonishing voice, causing a scare to A Miao. “Killed… Who?”

“Her boyfriend. He came back to look for her last time.”

A Miao took a deep breath. “In order to come back and pursue you?”

“She went crazy and didn’t care about anything,” said Shen Xinglan with a face of disgust. “Xia Wan is afraid of Bai Lu overdoing something. I will deal with her.”

” I see,” said A Miao with a mournful expression. “If something happens to Bai Lu, her wedding with Bai Youran will be postponed.”

Shen Xinglan pinched her nose. “That’s not the point, the point is Bai Youran is Bai Lu’s older brother. So no matter what Bai Lu does, the Bai family has to clean up her mess.”

“Xia Wan is marrying Bai Youran for the Bai family. She doesn’t want anything to happen to the Bai family.” Shen Xinglan lifted the corners of his mouth. “At least until she has no way out, the Bai family can’t have any problems.”

A Miao made a collapsing gesture. “Her life is really tiring!”

“Do you think anyone can have such good fortune as you to meet me?” He suddenly leaned over and said, “Don’t worry, now is not the right time. When the time comes, I will never let those people get in your way.”

Knowing that he was referring to the Xia family, A Miao took the rare initiative to nip his face. Before she could pull her head back, she was held down, and in the next second, there was a deep kiss.

This year was probably the happiest time for A Miao since her youth. However, the original plan to invite Song Baohua to dinner on the third day of Lunar New Year failed because Zhou Xiao did not come.

“You don’t have to worry about us. Have fun!” Song Baohua comforted her on the phone. “Don’t you know that girl Zhou Xiao? Forget about her, she’ll be fine later.”

A Miao felt very pained. Later Shen Xinglan told her that Song Baohua would be operated on in March next year.

“Le Yi’s personal mastermind is totally overqualified, you can rest assured!” Ouyang said. He left the Ji Corp on the fifth day to find He Shishi.

At present, Le Yi and Ding V lived with the family.

“We’ll go and see the house tomorrow.” On the 15th day of the first month, several people were around the table eating tangyuan when Shen Xinglan suddenly spoke.

A Miao remembered that he had bought a house near the university.

“I’ll go too,” Le Yi said with a smile.

Ding V raised his claw.

So, the next day, the four of them and two Shens drove together to the new house.

“Mr. Shen?”

They did not know the world was so small. They met someone they knew when they got out of the car. The one they did not want to meet, or at least A Miao did not want to.

Ling Lang was somewhat surprised to see them. “You are…”

“We’ve come to take a look at the house.” Le Yi took the initiative to say, “We met in the elevator last time, remember?”

“Of course.” Ling lang nodded to cover her eyes.

Among this group of people, obviously, only Le Yi was good at communication. Shen Xinglan never spoke nonsense, Ding V was not talkative, and A Miao… She was afraid.

“Have you just bought the top floor of this building?” Ling lang thought of what to ask.

Le Yi glanced at Shen Xinglan and said with a smile, “It’s unlikely to be such a coincidence that Officer Ling Lang also lives here?”

“What a coincidence,” Ling Lang said with a smile. “I live downstairs.”

“Wow!” Le Yi winked at A Miao. “Now you don’t have to worry about your safety anymore.”

Ling Lang looked at A Miao, who had to say, “It’s near the school, so…”

“Oh!” Ling Lang nodded. “I see. Then I won’t delay you. I’ll go first.”

A Miao waved at her and cried after waiting for her to leave, “I don’t want to live here, let’s go back!”

“Shen I.” Shen Xinglan let out a cry.

From the time Shen I pressed the elevator button until the door of the room, A Miao’s face did not look good. Shen Xinglan had been looking at her, and seeing her dispirited appearance, became exasperated and felt sorry for her.

“Although it is not as big as the villa, everything is available. See if you like it or not.” When she entered the room, Shen Xinglan pushed her to take a look.

A Miao was not in the mood, so she turned around wildly and fell on the sofa to continue to babble.

“I don’t want to live here. Let me go back to live there. I don’t want to live here…”

Le Yi had never seen A Miao like this before. He thought she was very cute and was warned by Shen Xinglan.

“What are you afraid of?” Taking her into her arms, he rubbed her head and asked.

A Miao’s face was sad. “No thief lives with the police!”

“No, she’s downstairs.”

“What’s the difference?” A Miao looked as if she had already been arrested. “I’ll come in and out every day. What if she sneaks in to investigate me?”

No one said anything.

“Ahem!” Le Yi smiled and said, “A Miao, you really think too much. She wouldn’t do that.”
