"I understand now. I won't interfere in this matter anymore. I was too anxious. I just want those children to be safe and sound," Qiao Mei said.
"It's good that you've thought it through. I heard from your Uncle Zhao that Old Madam Li always comes at mealtimes. Did you eat at your mother's place?" Qiao Qiang asked.
Qiao Mei was about to stubbornly say that she had eaten when her hopeless stomach growled.
She looked at Qiao Qiang shyly and said, "Hehe, I was too focused on being angry with my mother. Do we still have food at home?"
"There's still food in the pot. I'll go and get some for you. I've only just started eating. Recently, I've been so focused on playing chess that I haven't eaten with you in a long time." Qiao Qiang stood up to get more food for Qiao Mei.
Qiao Mei quickly said, "I'll go on my own! I can still do this kind of thing. Grandfather, don't be too nervous. My children aren't that fragile!"
