The graceful Tang Xiaoyu blushed slightly after hearing Liu Meilan's words.

"Yes! Now we are in a serious relationship, we are boyfriend and girlfriend!"

Liu Meilan didn't care whether they were boyfriend and girlfriend. She cared a lot about the process. "Tell me, you two have been procrastinating for so long. You haven't made it clear even after so many dates. Why did you guys make such rapid progress just because I went out to sea?"

Tang Xiaoyu chuckled, "In fact, it wasn't when you went out to sea that we made it clear, but when Yang Hao and his men visited our ornamental fish farm, I went to Shencheng to treat them to a meal in the afternoon, and we made it clear that night..."

Liu Meilan was slightly stunned. "That's not right! Ye Qiang is not a very stingy person. How could he chase you just because you are having dinner with a client? After all, he still needs to take care of his health and can't stay outside for too long."

"In fact, I asked about it later. You would never guess who called Ye Qiang before he came to find me!" Tang Xiaoyu was a little angry. "I ignored her time and time again, but she still took advantage of me!"

Liu Meilan touched her chin and thought carefully about the people who had unpleasant experiences with Tang Xiaoyu. Apart from business partners, the only ones left were friends she met in life.

"Are you talking about Ye Lingling?" Liu Meilan asked.

Tang Xiaoyu nodded, "That's her! She was also having dinner at Yuehailou that night, but I didn't see her, but she saw me!"

"If she had taken the initiative to greet me and then called Ye Qiang over, I would have really believed that she cared about me. But she called Ye Qiang directly. I guess she wanted Ye Qiang to see me drinking and eating with a few men so that Ye Qiang would misunderstand me!"

Liu Meilan was quite angry when she heard this. "It's been made so clear, but she's still fussing about it! People like this are petty and narrow-minded. No matter how smart they are or how successful they are, they're not worth getting along with."

Tang Xiaoyu nodded, "I think so too! Ye Qiang also told me so. I never thought Ye Lingling was so selfish before. I just thought she was just a stubborn little girl."

"I didn't expect that after this trip abroad, I didn't know if I learned anything useful, but I did learn this kind of refined egoism to perfection. Fortunately, Ye Qiang was willing to tell me the truth, otherwise he might have misunderstood me as a casual person!"

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Yes, we have known Ye Qiang for a long time and we know each other very well! Ye Lingling can't make Ye Qiang change just by provoking him a few times!"

"But as soon as Ye Qiang heard that you were drinking, he came to find you. He was really worried about you, and he must be really jealous too!"

Tang Xiaoyu covered her mouth and smiled, "I think so too! Fortunately, I am very good at communication and can communicate in time to avoid misunderstandings."

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "I was planning to go to my mother's place at noon today. Since you asked me if I was free, then my answer is yes. Do you want Ye Qiang to treat me to a meal?"

Tang Xiaoyu nodded, "Yes! You are my best friend. Ye Qiang wants to come to my house before the Mid-Autumn Festival, but I think you should have a formal meal with Ye Qiang before that."

Liu Meilan was very happy that Tang Xiaoyu regarded her so seriously. "Okay! I accept the invitation for lunch today! Where shall we eat?"

Tang Xiaoyu replied: "Ye Qiang's home, I'll just show you the villa that the Ye family gave me, it's really nice!"

"Okay!" Liu Meilan nodded. "There's a lot of seafood in the cold storage, including crabs with roe and medicinal crabs. There's still quite a lot! Bring some grouper, so it won't be rude to visit."

Tang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Meilan, I'm sorry for the expense!"

"How can you say that?" Liu Meilan said angrily, "We are good friends. Although Ye Qiang and I are just acquaintances, we can still talk. After he was injured, I went to visit him at home once. Now that he is almost recovered, I have to go even more. What's more, you invited me to dinner after you confirmed your relationship, so I have to go."

Tang Xiaoyu smiled, "Meilan, you are so nice."

"Of course, I'm fine." Liu Meilan replied, "It's getting late now, let's go now."

Bringing gifts, Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu came to the Ye family.

Coincidentally, I met Ye Lingling and Qin Ming just after parking the car in the underground garage.

Liu Meilan was stunned and looked at Tang Xiaoyu, "What's going on? Aren't you inviting only me?"

Tang Xiaoyu blinked, "I'm only inviting you! As for Qin Ming and Ye Lingling, I don't know. I don't think Ye Qiang knew in advance!"

Just as he finished speaking, Ye Qiang called, "Xiao Yu, five minutes ago, I received a call from Qin Ming. He and Ye Lingling wanted to come visit me. After all, Qin Ming is sometimes very busy, and he always comes to see me when he has time, so I didn't refuse."

"Oh, so that's how it is!" Tang Xiaoyu nodded, "They are all people I know, and Qin Ming is here too, so Ye Lingling shouldn't have any wild thoughts. But you can't neglect my good friend just because your friends are here, after all, we made the appointment first."

Ye Qiang smiled, "Of course, you and I are best friends!"

Tang Xiaoyu chuckled, "You just say nice things to coax me!"

Before he hung up the phone, Qin Ming got out of the car and saw Tang Xiaoyu's car. He knocked on Tang Xiaoyu's door happily, "Xiaoyu, you are here to visit Ye Qiang too!"

"Okay, I'll hang up and be there soon." Tang Xiaoyu said with a smile, "Hello, Qin Ming. Ye Qiang and I have confirmed our relationship, and Ye Qiang wants to treat Meilan to a meal!"

"Congratulations to you and Xiaoqiang." Qin Ming was stunned for a moment, then smiled. He was distracted for a moment, but soon recovered and looked at Liu Meilan, "Meilan, hello, did you go to sea smoothly?"

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "It went smoothly, quite smoothly! I got a lot of good things. I have asked someone to send them to my mother. She will send one to your house when the time comes. Qin Ming, happy Mid-Autumn Festival."

In the hearts of Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu, even if they cannot be lovers, being neighbors or friends is also a very healthy relationship.

There is really no need to stop communicating with each other forever. After all, we are all kind-hearted people and have helped each other before.

Qin Ming smiled and said, "Thank you. I'm in for a treat. I'm sorry, I didn't know you were coming today. I just finished a case and had a day off. That's when I had time to visit Xiaoqiang. I apologize for disturbing you."

Liu Meilan waved her hands, "What are you talking about! We are good friends to each other. It's a good thing to come to visit Ye Qiang and get together."

"It's very rare that you brought Ye Lingling with you. Don't stand outside. Let's go in. I think Ye Qiang is already waiting for us."

Ye Lingling parked the car and walked over with a sweet smile, "Meilan, Xiaoyu, what a coincidence. Qin Ming brought me here to visit Ye Qiang. I'm so glad to meet you."

If Ye Lingling had not "complained" that day, perhaps Tang Xiaoyu and Liu Meilan would really believe the "happiness" that Ye Lingling said.

now?

Haha, professional fake smile, she and Tang Xiaoyu can do it too!

"Yes, we just told Qin Ming that we are glad to meet you." Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Xiaoyu, you are Ye Qiang's girlfriend now, so you should come here often. Do you know how to get there?"

"I know!" Tang Xiaoyu said with a smile, "I'll lead the way."

Tang Xiaoyu walked in front, like the mistress of the Ye family.

When Ye Lingling thought of the Ye family's countless properties and their solid position in Shenzhen, a hint of jealousy flashed in the depths of her eyes.

Even though they are also a branch of the Ye family, they can still get a lot of money from the clan every year.

In addition, the Ye family now has an ancestral temple!

The Ye family members live in one village and there are several hundred of them.

Every family with money would give a portion to the clan. If they encountered difficulties, the clan would also help them.

For example, there is a child in Room 9 who has leukemia and it costs a lot of money to treat him.

Although the child bought insurance, the money given by the clan was more and paid out faster than the reimbursement.

If there were no help from the tribesmen, this child really would not be able to be cured.

Among them, the eighth branch, namely Ye Sheng and Ye Qiang, donates the most money every year.

Not only that, Ye Sheng is also the current patriarch.

Ye Qiang returned to his ancestral home this year, and during the New Year, he will follow Ye Sheng to burn incense.

As long as Tang Xiaoyu gets engaged to Ye Qiang, she will be Ye Qiang’s fiancée, and the future headmistress of the Ye family.

Ye Lingling also wanted to salute Tang Xiaoyu.

If she was rude to Tang Xiaoyu, Tang Xiaoyu wouldn't have to say anything because the people in the family would drown her with their saliva.

Maybe it was because of Tang Xiaoyu's beauty, or maybe it was because of her possessiveness towards Qin Ming, but Ye Lingling always had a grudge against Tang Xiaoyu.

Liu Meilan's senses were very sharp, and she was able to detect Ye Lingling's deep-seated jealousy and malice.

This Ye Lingling is really incomprehensible.

There is really nothing between Tang Xiaoyu and Qin Ming. The two of them didn't know each other before and had no grudge against each other. Why does Ye Lingling still have ill will towards Tang Xiaoyu?

She wanted to discuss this issue with Tang Xiaoyu in private so that Tang Xiaoyu could be mentally prepared.

Although Tang Xiaoyu is very smart, he may not be able to discover the hidden malice.

Ye Qiang was already waiting in the yard. Seeing Tang Xiaoyu walking in front, he smiled like a bright flower in summer, "Xiaoyu!"

The joy in the voice was beyond words.

Ye Qiang's love and admiration for Tang Xiaoyu is not just superficial.

In fact, deep in Ye Qiang's heart, he has a deep attachment and trust in Tang Xiaoyu.

The plot of a hero saving a beautiful girl applies to both men and women.

At such a critical moment, Tang Xiaoyu saved Ye Qiang regardless of his own safety.

When Ye Qiang was dying, it was Tang Xiaoyu who used the first aid techniques he learned during militia training to help him stop the bleeding.

Therefore, Ye Qiang's heart is now filled with Tang Xiaoyu. No matter how beautiful the women outside are, they cannot compare to Tang Xiaoyu.

When Tang Xiaoyu heard Ye Qiang's voice, his steps became faster and faster. "Have you been standing outside for a long time? Do your legs hurt? Are you tired?"

Ye Qiang smiled and said, "I just came out not long ago, I am not tired, and I don't feel any pain at all. Meilan, Qin Ming, Ye Lingling, there is a pavilion over there, we can sit over there."

Although there is air conditioning in the house and it can keep cool, it is far from being as comfortable as being outside.

Although it was a bit hot outside, the pavilion was surrounded by trees and the breeze was cool and comfortable.

Hearing Ye Qiang addressing her by her full name, Ye Lingling's heart skipped a beat.

They are a family, and addressing each other like this in front of outsiders is enough to prove that their relationship is not close, or even unfamiliar.

Ye Lingling felt uneasy. She remembered that the last time she came with her father, Ye Qiang called her by her first name without her last name.

By comparing the two, you can see the changes.

There is only one reason for the change, and that is Tang Xiaoyu.

Tang Xiaoyu must have said something bad about her behind her back. Letting Tang Xiaoyu stay in the Ye family and become the head wife of the Ye family would not benefit her at all.

In this case, Ye Lingling felt it necessary to do something.

Not only Ye Lingling heard it, but Qin Ming, Tang Xiaoyu and Liu Meilan also heard it.

Qin Ming was quite surprised. Lingling often mentioned Ye Qiang in front of him, saying that they were of the same clan and had a close relationship.

If they are close, and are of the same clan and generation, they will be ranked according to age, calling each other brother and sister or sister and brother.

But the fact that Ye Qiang called Ye Lingling by her full name was enough to show that they were not familiar with each other.

But Qin Ming didn't think much about it. He and Ye Qiang were from the same hometown and had been to Yejia Village.

There are over a thousand people in the entire Yejia Village, and there must be many people of the same generation as Ye Qiang. It is normal that Ye Qiang is not familiar with Ye Lingling.

Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.

At least Ye Qiang can see clearly and distinguish between relatives and strangers.

If Ye Qiang still can't figure out the matter of Ye Lingling and lets Tang Xiaoyu suffer, Liu Meilan won't agree.

In a relationship between a man and a woman, if there is an unprincipled grievance once, it will happen a second time, or even more times.

No matter how good Ye Qiang and the Ye family are, if Tang Xiaoyu will be wronged, then it is better not to have such a boyfriend and such in-laws.

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Ye Qiang, I'm relieved to see that you've recovered so well! Fu Chen talked about you before and said he would come to visit you."

Ye Qiang raised his eyebrows slightly, "I heard it, Captain, you are calling me! I will visit him after I recover."

Fu Chen's injuries were much more serious than his, and he also had a near-death experience.

It will take at least half a year of rest before you can recover.

He is recovering well now. He went to the hospital for a check-up yesterday. After another month of rest, he will be fully recovered.

"You heard it!" Liu Meilan joked, "All your comrades have visited him! You're the only one missing!"

Ye Qiang begged for mercy, "Actually, I've wanted to visit the captain for a long time, but my dad said that you can't go anywhere until you're fully recovered!"

"Fu Chen understands, and he also hopes that you can recover soon!" Liu Meilan sat in the pavilion, drank herbal tea, and started chatting.

Ye Qiang asked: "Qin Ming, you have dark circles under your eyes. You must be very busy recently!"

Qin Ming nodded, "It's really busy! As long as there is a result and the real murderer is caught, it's worth it no matter how busy I am!"

"Last time, my colleagues and I were investigating a missing person case. We met Xiaoyu during dinner. After Xiaoyu's reminder, we found the direction of the investigation. The suspect's body was indeed dismembered and flushed down the toilet!"

Ye Qiang blinked his eyes. "Now that we have DNA technology, it should be easy to compare identities. Why did you wait until now?"

Qin Ming replied: "Because we found a lot of human tissue in the septic tank, and found DNA from at least four people, but the suspect only admitted to killing one!"
