Qiao Yu sat in the car happily and enjoyed this short period of time when she could behave like a rich person. This was the first time she had ever sat in a private car. The last time Xia He brought her to the guest house, they took the bus.

The Xia family had chauffeurs. Xia Jun, Xia Mao and Xia Wen all had their own cars and full-time chauffeurs. The Xia family also had two other cars for Xu Lan and the rest to use. As long as they informed the guards at the entrance of the neighborhood, there would be someone who came to pick them up.

Xia He was worried that Qiao Yu would dirty the family's car if she sat in it. It would be troublesome to repair and wash the car, so it was better to take the bus!

Qiao Yu behaved in an ignorant manner and reached out to touch all the fixtures in the car. Ever since she got into the car, she had not been idle. The burly man was the one who had fitted out the car. It was winter now and there was furry seat cushioning wrapped around all the seats. The fragrance in the car was also his favorite smell.

The burly man said helplessly, "Miss Qiao, I'm driving. Please don't touch these buttons. It won't be good if anything happens to the car."

"I… I see… I'm sorry… I'm just a little curious." Qiao Yu lowered her head aggrievedly and gripped the seatbelt tightly in her hand.

They had been traveling for quite a while, but they had not reached the guest house yet. The amount of time it took seemed different from when Xia He brought her to the guest house. By right, it should be faster to get there by car than by bus.

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Qiao Yu felt that the burly man looked like an earnest person and that she could ask him some questions. She probed carefully, "Big brother… Are you a friend of Brother Xia?"

"Yes, I'm a good friend of his. I used to be in the same army unit as him," the burly man said calmly.

What the burly man said was true. He was indeed a good friend that Xia Wen had made when they were both in the army. The two of them had even fought side by side before. Later on, he had suffered a serious waist injury during a mission, so he could not continue to serve in the army and was transferred back to work in the government sector.

He was not an ambitious person. He just wanted to find a simple job in the government and live a peaceful life. In the beginning, he was a security officer in the government compound and his job was to patrol the vicinity every day. It was quite an easy job. When he heard that Xia Wen was going to work in the government compound, he quickly applied to his superiors to be Xia Wen's bodyguard and chauffeur. His superiors approved the request soon after.

He liked working with Xia Wen very much. To him, Xia Wen was a very grounded person, unlike some people who liked to take cheap shots to hurt others behind their backs.

Qiao Yu was overjoyed. Even if she could not marry Xia Wen or Xia Zhe, it was good enough for her to marry any of their friends. For young masters like them, their friends must be of similar status to them. Otherwise, if the difference in status was too big, they would not be able to get along.

Qiao Yu slowly leaned towards the burly man and held his hand in an unseemly manner. She said coquettishly, "Big brother, what's your name? How old are you? Does your family live in the same neighborhood as Brother Xia? Do your parents know the Xia family?"

"My name is Chen Mu. I'm the same age as Xia Wen and I don't live there," Chen Mu answered truthfully.

Chen Mu knew exactly what this woman was up to. He had seen what she had just done to Xia Wen at the entrance of the neighborhood. Such an improper issue must be resolved as soon as possible to avoid causing trouble for the Xia family.

Qiao Yu looked at Chen Mu with some sense of disappointment. It was such a pity that he was not from that neighborhood.

Qiao Yu withdrew her hand casually and leaned against the window to look at the scenery. She did not say anything else after that.

She would not like people who lived anywhere else. She only wanted to know people who lived in the same kind of high-end neighborhood like the Xia family. It would be best if they lived next door to the Xia family. This way, when Qiao Mei came around, she would be able to go out and hang around so that Qiao Mei could see her at all times.

She would try her hand at anything that could annoy Qiao Mei. If her life was not easy, then Qiao Mei could also forget about living a good life! If Qiao Mei could marry into a rich family, then there was no way that she could not!

She definitely wanted to marry into a rich family and then return to the village arrogantly to show off to her brothers who looked down on her back then, as well as her father who wanted to sell her off. She must make them regret what they did!
