“Let’s go. It’s almost time,” Li Gui said coldly.

Xu Ba hurried to block Li Gui’s path and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to go and look for you. I’m just worried that if I go, it will only make you feel even more troubled. I want to settle everything before I come and explain the situation to you! I do love you!”

Qiao Mei sighed. By the time Xu Ba settled everything, Li Gui would be almost as good as new.

However, Qiao Mei really could not bring herself to hate Cai Ming. If she was Cai Ming, she would have done the same things. As long as it was for the good of her child, she was willing to do anything.

“Uncle Xu, when do you intend to go back to work? Your approved leave period should be coming to an end soon,” Qiao Mei said.

“I’m going to leave now. I’ll go and buy my ticket now,” Xu Ba said.

Qiao Mei nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that Xu Ba still had some sense and knew that he should follow Li Gui and go back with her now. Even though he had not packed his luggage or prepared anything, he could always buy whatever he needed there. If he missed out on Li Gui, she would not come back to him.

“Alright, that’s it then. Mom, I’ll say goodbye here,” Qiao Mei said happily.

Li Gui would not be lonely on her journey. Xu Ba would keep trying to explain himself to Li Gui. The day of their reconciliation should come soon.

Li Gui reached out to pick up her luggage, but Xu Ba snatched it and followed behind her happily. Cai Ming ran forward indignantly and grabbed Xu Ba by his clothes, saying, “Xu Ba, are you going to leave us just like that? Even if you don’t care about me, you have to care about Xu Jin! She’s your biological daughter! Are you going to leave her behind just like that?”

Xu Ba’s firm attitude from earlier immediately wavered. He really felt a strong sense of guilt towards Xu Jin. His personal grudge with Cai Ming should not affect an innocent child.

“You can’t do this to us! Xu Jin can’t go back! Those people will sell Xu Jin to an old man in his 70s or 80s! Can you really bear to see Xu Jin wasting her life away!” Cai Ming said as she wept.

Qiao Mei stopped in her tracks. She was very curious about the experiences of this mother-and-daughter duo. She did not want to miss out on such exciting gossip.

“What exactly is going on?” Qiao Mei said as she acted surprised.

“Xu Jin has had a tough life since she was young. My ex-husband used to beat Xu Jin up all the time and kept saying that Xu Jin is… a ‘bastard child’. He even… even tried to rape Xu Jin! Fortunately, I discovered it in time and stopped him. After that, my ex-husband beat me up even more viciously and he even broke my bones!” Cai Ming said aggrievedly.

“Goodness…” Qiao Mei said in shock.

Qiao Mei’s heart ached for Xu Jin. In the past, she was lucky to have lasted until Qiao Qiang’s return to the village. Otherwise, she might have died in that pigsty.

“Xu Jin is already of marriageable age. My ex-husband’s family just wants to sell Xu Jin off for a good price. Any man who offers a lot of money can marry Xu Jin. Perhaps… perhaps they will make Xu Jin marry two men. They are more than capable of doing that!” Cai Ming cried bitterly as she hugged Xu Jin.

Xu Jin, on the other hand, did not have much of an expression. It was as if she had long become indifferent to such things. However, it was this non-expression which made Xu Ba feel even more uncomfortable.

However, what did all of this have to do with Qiao Mei and Li Gui? Even if Qiao Mei pitied them, she would not let her family members suffer any grievances in order to help them.

“How can you bear to see your daughter getting treated like this!” Cai Ming cried out.

Xu Ba loosened his grip on the luggage and his heart wavered.

Qiao Mei pursed her lips resignedly. She just knew that Xu Ba was an unreliable person. Then again, Cai Ming was truly smart. Every sentence she said was on point and targeted at Xu Ba’s guilt and it made him unable to walk away.

“So why are you going back this time round? To get your household register record?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.

“That’s right,” Cai Ming said.

“There’s no need to go through so much trouble. You might get beaten up after you go back and might even get locked up by that family. What if they make use of you to threaten Uncle Xu for money? I can get someone to transfer your household register over to Uncle Xu’s household register,” Qiao Mei said.

“Thank you! Thank you so much!” Xu Ba said excitedly. He did not have the clout to do something like that. Qiao Mei was being very kind if she was willing to help him to this extent.

Could it be that Qiao Mei really wanted him to be with Li Gui?

“I’ll get someone to make the necessary arrangements. Uncle Xu, don’t worry and go back to work,” Qiao Mei said.

“Sure, sure, sure!” Xu Ba smiled so widely that the corners of his mouth almost reached his ears!

“You’re definitely not so kind-hearted! Who knows how you’ll torture us when the time comes! We don’t believe what you say!” Xu Jin said furiously while pointing at Qiao Mei.
