After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!



However, Xia Wen could not be totally absolved of blame in the current situation. If he had done something and stopped the damage in time, it would not have made things so awkward for everyone.

Qiao Mei would not allow anyone to take her children away from her. No matter who had such an ulterior motive, she would not let the villainous person succeed. In particular, Qiao Mei did not take foolhardy people like Tan Jing seriously at all.

At the moment, she was most worried about how Xia Wen was going to make the decision. It involved his own family on one hand and the Xia family on the other. She did not know how he was going to choose.

Sister Fan observed that Xia Wen had been standing for a long time and secretly brought over a chair for him to sit down and rest for a while. Sister Fan felt that Xia Wen was also a victim in this matter and that he was an innocent party.

"I… I… I'm sorry…" Xia Wen stammered, unable to speak properly. This was the first time he had ever felt so embarrassed at home.

Qiao Mei looked at Tan Jing and pondered for a long time. If Xia Wen was made to come up with a solution to this matter himself, he would again sacrifice his own benefits to exchange for peace in the Xia family. In the end, this matter would still remain resolved. It appeared that she needed to be the one to take action in this case.

"What exactly do you want?" Qiao Mei looked at Tan Jing and asked calmly.

Tan Jing felt dazed for a moment. She thought that Qiao Mei would behave threateningly and scold her or even hit her, but she did not expect Qiao Mei to be so calm.

"I don't want anything…" Tan Jing whispered.

Qiao Mei said mockingly, "Didn't you want my child just now? Why are you saying that you don't want anything now? I don't have any other intentions when I ask you this question. I just want to know what I can give you for you to completely drop the idea regarding my child."

Xia He hurriedly tugged at Qiao Mei's sleeve and looked at her in shock. What was wrong with her? Why was she handing out things to Tan Jing?

Qiao Mei quietly patted Xia He's hand to ask Xia He not to be worried. She knew her own limits.

Tan Jing observed Qiao Mei's expression and thought that Qiao Mei did not seem to be faking it. It seemed that Qiao Mei really wanted to know what she wanted. Perhaps Qiao Mei thought that she could simply spend some money to buy peace.

No matter what it was, since Qiao Mei had asked her so openly, she definitely would not let go of this opportunity.

"I don't really expect much. It's just that if I adopt or have my own children in the future, our 50-square-meter house won't be big enough for all of us to live in. Look, you have so many empty houses. It shouldn't be too difficult for you to give me one," Tan Jing said probingly.

"Just one house?" Qiao Mei asked.

"An entire courtyard house," Tan Jing said.

Xu Lan, Liu Fen and Xia He all gasped audibly. They did not expect Tan Jing to be so greedy to ask for an entire courtyard house. That was something that Tan Jing would never be able to afford in her life. How audacious of her.

Xia Wen shook his head resignedly. He just knew that the Tan family was the root cause of this matter. These were things that the Tan family coveted. However, rather than saying that the Tan family made her do it, it would be more accurate to say that the Tan family appealed to her vainful desires so that she would do all these. If Tan Jing did not crave for all these things herself, the Tan family would not be able to convince her to do it.

"There'll only be three or four people in your own family. Why do you need such a big house?" Qiao Mei said.

"I… I have to go back to work by then. There needs to be someone around to take care of the children at home. Mother is usually very busy in the art troupe, which means I'll have to get my mother to come and help me take care of the children. I won't want to trouble any of you," Tan Jing said earnestly.

Was Tan Jing expecting them to thank her for being so considerate? She had asked for an entire courtyard house so that she need not trouble them. What a good reason to cook up.

She used children as an excuse to ask Qiao Mei for the house so that she could give the Tan family what they wanted. It was truly killing two birds with one stone.

"Anything else?" Qiao Mei continued to ask.

"Also… the money you lent to us to repay the debts. My parents don't have the ability to repay it. Why don't we just forget about it? Anyway, you don't lack money at all," Tan Jing said shamelessly.

Xia He rolled her eyes in anger. Even though Qiao Mei had a lot of assets, she had obtained them with her own abilities. How could Tan Jing have the cheek to ask for all these things?

Shameless people were truly invincible!

"Do you need anything else? It's now or never. In the future, I might not even agree to let you speak up. Hurry up and say it while I'm still in a good mood now," Qiao Mei said.
