Qiao Mei gnashed her teeth so hard that she almost cracked them. He Ning had really hidden his actions too well. Even Yao Nian did not manage to find out about He Ning’s influence in Shen City. However, this was not Yao Nian’s fault. Yao Nian knew the northern region very well but he was still not that familiar with the southern region. She could only blame herself for not paying attention to the developments in the south.

“I disagree!” someone suddenly spoke up from behind He Ning.

He Ning could tell that it was Xia Wen’s voice. He smiled and turned around to ask, “This is a matter between Qiao Mei and me. Since when can you make decisions for your younger brother?”

“The eldest brother is like a father! Of course he can!” Qiao Mei said forcefully.

Xia Wen nodded in satisfaction. He did not dote on Qiao Mei and Xia Zhe for nothing. Xia Wen stared into He Ning’s eyes and said firmly, “I have the final say in the Xia family’s matters now. I can make the decision on this matter you mentioned. We won’t give you what you want.”

He Ning smiled resignedly and said, “Why do you want to end it like this?”

“He Ning, you look like you’re at the end of your life. Don’t you think you shouldn’t give us this attitude? Even if we lose all our assets in Shen City, our Xia family won’t starve to death. Don’t use this to threaten us. Besides, we’re all in good health. As for you ”

Xia Wen looked at He Ning and sized him up before saying, “That might not be the case.”

“This is such a good deal. It’s a pity to lose it,” He Ning said regretfully.

“It’s not a pity at all. You know very well what you have done,” Xia Wen said.

He Ning did not have anything else to say. He slowly left with the help of his walking stick. As he stepped out through the main door, he turned around and gave Qiao Mei an intense look. This woman would become his sooner or later

After Sun Tian sent He Ning off, Qiao Mei kept staring at Xia Wen. She felt that there was something strange about Xia Wen’s tone and attitude just now. Although He Ning had always been causing trouble for the Xia family, Xia Wen was always mild-mannered and calm in the past. Yet today, he seemed to be angry?

“I’m sorry, Qiao Mei. I said those things just to scare him off. I don’t really intend to sacrifice your business in Shen City,” Xia Wen said apologetically.

The business in Shen City did not just belong to Qiao Mei. There was also the hard work of Xiang Chen and Qiao Mei’s students. They had started from scratch in an unfamiliar city to build the company into one of the top companies in Shen City within a short period of time. This required a lot of effort and the business could not be sacrificed just like that.

“Eldest Brother, we’re a family. Everything you say is right. It’s not a big deal even if I lose everything. I still have so many houses and treasures at home! I won’t be able to spend all the money even if I have three lifetimes!” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Xia Wen felt much better knowing that Qiao Mei was not angry with him. While Qiao Mei was overseas during the past few years, He Ning had been secretly investigating her for some reason. He had even sent people to Country M many times to stalk her.

However, Xia Wen had secretly put a stop to all these. He Ning did not even manage to succeed even once. Xia Wen had never told Qiao Mei about these things as he did not want her to live in fear in Country M.

“Eldest Brother, did something happen over the years that you didn’t tell me?” Qiao Mei asked.

“You know me well, but these things can’t be explained in a few sentences. In the future, when you go out, you must bring Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang with you. Don’t let them stand too far away from you. I’ll talk to Father later and ask the superiors to arrange for a female bodyguard to join our guard team. Her job will be to protect you,” Xia Wen said worriedly.

“Don’t tell me that He Ning will kidnap me for the sake of getting ginseng?” Qiao Mei said.

“He’s about to die. It’s not impossible for him to do something extreme. He’s still as crazy as ever after so many years. I’m just worried that he’ll arrange for someone to deal with you,” Xia Wen said.

With Qiao Mei’s superpower, even if 10 burly men ganged up on her, they would not be her match. However, in order to let Xia Wen and the rest of the family feel more assured, Qiao Mei decided to do as Xia Wen said.

“Then should we give him the ginseng?” Qiao Mei asked.

He Ning had accumulated a lot of wealth and connections in the past few years. The He family was no longer in dire straits like before, so this was something that the Xia family had to keep in mind. Qiao Mei did not lack ginseng, so after weighing the pros and cons, the best move would be to give him the ginseng.

“Yes we should, but not now. If it’s so easy for him to get the ginseng, he’ll try to use other things to threaten us in the future,” Xia Wen said.

“Are we going to be held hostage by him for the rest of our lives? Eldest Brother, there are other ways to resolve this,” Qiao Mei said.

“The He family is not a match for our Xia family. It’s just that the Xia family has too many things going on now and it’s not the best time for us to take action. Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing,” Xia Wen said with a smile.
