Qiao Mei sighed and said, “Xia Chu told me that he  is not functional in that aspect ”

Everyone there was shocked. An Xin grabbed Qiao Mei’s hand and asked anxiously, “How can that be! The army arranges for the soldiers to get a checkup every year. If Xia Chu really has such a problem, he will definitely tell me! Mei Mei, is there another reason? Tell Aunt the truth. I can take it!”

“I’m telling the truth. It’s not a physical illness, it’s a psychological one,” Qiao Mei said.

“Mei Mei, do you think your medicinal wine can help Xia Chu?” Xu Lan asked.

After all, Tan Jing’s infertility was cured by Qiao Mei’s medicinal wine back then. It should be able to do the same for Xia Chu!

“A psychological problem requires its own type of treatment. My medicinal wine can only treat physical illnesses and it can’t solve Xia Chu’s psychological problems. This matter can’t be rushed. When Xia Chu can come to terms with it, he will be able to recover,” Qiao Mei said as she pretended to be sad.

An Xin completely believed what Qiao Mei said. No wonder Xia Chu did not want to get married all these years. He must definitely be too embarrassed to tell her in detail about such a thing.

Since the banquet ended late yesterday, Bian Ke also stayed over at Qiao Mei’s villa for the night. This morning, Xia Wen arranged for a car to send her back. When they reached the edge of the city, she asked the driver to drop her off, saying that she wanted to go to a friend’s house.

After confirming that there was no one around, Bian Ke took a taxi to an orchard in the suburbs. When she entered the house, she was carrying a pot with a beautiful peony planted inside.

“Brother He! I asked someone to buy this yellow peony plant for me! Look at how beautiful the color is! Come and take a look!” Bian Ke said as she placed the pot on the table.

He Ning walked to the table and said expressionlessly, “How much did you spend on it?”

“Not much. As long as Brother He likes it, it’s worth every penny!” Bian Ke said with a smile.

“This is just an ordinary peony. Besides, I don’t like peonies. Go and ask Huo Gao to reimburse you the money later. It’s not easy for the Bian family to earn money. Spend it sparingly and don’t buy anything else for me,” He Ning said.

Bian Ke scratched her head awkwardly and said embarrassedly, “I’m sorry, Brother He. I’ll definitely find out more information before buying something next time.”

“How was the event with the Xia family members yesterday?” He Ning asked.

“The dinner party was very boring. The family members are very interesting though. Each family is secretly competing with each other! Yesterday, they almost got into a fight!” Bian Ke said.

“Oh? Tell me in detail,” He Ning said as he looked at Bian Ke with interest.

Bian Ke had never seen He Ning look at her like this before. She quickly told him everything she had seen and heard last night, not missing out on anything. He Ning listened with relish.

“If you ask me, the biggest scourge is that woman named Qiao Mei! This woman is a master instigator! She’s so evil! She wants to cause trouble in the family!” Bian Ke said in disgust.

“What do you know!” He Ning shouted fiercely, scaring Bian Ke so much that she kept trembling. Bian Ke was a relative of He Ning’s mother. Based on the family hierarchy, the Bian family and the He family could barely be considered relatives!

However, He Ning urgently needed someone who could walk into the Xia family’s house to gather information. After pondering for a long time, he could only think of Bian Ke. She had liked He Ning since she was young and had fallen for him at first sight. She did not get married all these years because she was waiting for him.

“Ahem  I didn’t mean to scold you. Tell me about Meng Yuan. Do you like him?” He Ning asked with a light cough.

“No, he looks like a cook! If not for my parents being fond of him  I won’t want to marry that person!” Bian Ke said.

“Don’t be willful. Given the Bian family’s current situation, it’s very good if you can become the Xia family’s in-laws. Such an identity is something that others can’t even dream of, even if Meng Yuan is only the Xia family’s adopted son. You should manage the relationship well.” He Ning sighed and then said, “I don’t have long to live and I’m not a good choice for you. I hope that I can see you marry a good husband. Then at least I won’t have lived in vain.”

When Bian Ke heard this, she covered her face and cried. She said in a choked voice, “Brother He, don’t be discouraged! I’ll think of a way to save you! You must persevere!”

“I’ve asked around. Meng Yuan is a very nice person and he will treat you well. You’ll have a good life after you marry him. Don’t meet me for the time being and don’t come to my house. Don’t make the Xia family suspicious of you,” He Ning reminded her.

Bian Ke wiped the tears off her face and quietly left through the back door. She made up her mind to help He Ning get everything he wanted and she would also find a way to extend his life!

He Ning looked at Bian Ke’s departing figure and smiled in satisfaction. It would be so boring for the Xia family if he did not get involved in this shenanigan as well. Since there were so many people who were at odds with the Xia family, who should he make use of?
