Linda Xia was still dazed with sleep on Charles Mu when Bun woke her up.
"You drooled when you were asleep." Charles Mu teased her, which made her wide awake. But she found herself fooled when she looked at him and found no saliva at all.
Linda stepped hard on Charles Mu's foot with her high heels and scolded, "That's more your style!"
"All right. Let's get out of the car. Your father has been waiting for us out there." James Mu also got off and looked embarrassingly back at this hilarious couple.
Johnson Xia came to greet them as soon as they got out of the car
"James, it's been a while."
"Yeah, Johnson. Who would have thought that we will meet again as relatives."
It had been more than ten years since they last met each other. In those years, they two loathed each other.
James Mu disliked Johnson Xia because he thought that Johnson wasn't good enough for Sherry Nalan, while Johnson Xia was jealous that James Mu grew up with her.
Besides, Linda was taken away from the hospital after she was born and was never heard again. Sherry Nalan was so heartbroken that she slowly faded away. After Sherry Nalan died, James Mu was so unhappy that he didn't feel like hanging out with Xia clan again.
The Xia clan ran into a commercial crisis this time. Johnson Xia had visited all partners but no one wanted to help. In desperation, he turned to James Mu for a try.
James Mu insisted that for this engagement to work, the Xia clan must marry the eldest daughter to his son. Sherry Nalan's daughter.
In fact, Johnson Xia had once looked for Linda after Sherry Nalan died and managed to find her. But he yielded to May Shen's pernicious advice and hesitantly decided against the idea of finding Linda back. After all, it had been years since Linda went missing.
"Father, Lady Xia." Linda greeted them. She hated May Shen, but it wasn't a good time for a catfight.
May Shen stood there with a smile but didn't reply at all. After what happened at Johnson Xia's birthday party, she felt no need to pretend to be a kind mother.
"Let's discuss it inside." Hearing Linda's greeting, Johnson Xia's face seemed to soften up. He felt much relieved when he saw the intimate scene of Charles Mu holding Linda's hand.
Johnson Xia still felt guilty towards Linda.
They entered the room and sat down. James Mu started the conversation, "Johnson, I'm here to discuss with you their engagement. It seems those two get along pretty well. The seventeenth of this month is a good day. Shall we make..."
Before James Mu 【finished】, a sloppily dressed woman, whose pajama and hair were in a terrible mess, rushed out with a knife in her hand. She shouted, "Linda Xia, get out of my house! You have screwed me. How did you have the nerve to come back?"
She rushed directly to Linda and brandished the knife at her face, giving her no chance to react.
Linda was so scared that she closed her eyes subconsciously.
But before the knife could reach Linda's face, Bun ran up and kicked Lisa Xia in her underbelly. Lisa was kicked to a distance about 1.7 feet and covered her belly with her hands in great pain.
"Lisa!" May Shen's face was distorted with fright. She shouted and rushed off the chair.
