After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!-Chapter 2231: Cracking Seafood Shells
"No, I chose to stay here," Xia Zhe said.
"You chose?" Qiao Mei was so agitated that she almost tore off the page from the magazine.
Xia Zhe quickly explained, "I'm looking for something here, so I have to stay here. I've already found out where it is located. It should be in Alan's bedroom."
The security in the entire villa was very tight. Regardless of whether Alan was around or not, there were people standing guard in his study and bedroom all day long, making it impossible to get close. However, it was different tomorrow. Alan would definitely have to take care of the guests during the engagement ceremony, which meant that he would have a chance to go in and do a search during the chaos.
"So do you really plan to take this show to the end?" Qiao Mei questioned.
Before Xia Zhe could answer, Daniel and Jessica suddenly walked in. Xia Zhe quickly said in the local language, "I like this car very much. I just don't know if it's in stock."
"What is it? I wonder if I can help?" Daniel came to Qiao Mei's side and looked at the car on the page before saying, "It's such a pity that this car is not available for sale yet. You need to make a booking in advance, but you won't be able to get it until the end of next year at the earliest."
"Forget it then. I don't have much patience," Xia Zhe said.
Jessica was dressed very simply. Qiao Mei raised her glass to Jessica and swirled the red wine. Since the two of them had already shed all pretense of cordiality, she might as well go even more overboard and make Jessica completely detest her.
If Jessica got agitated and did something to hurt her, then she would have an excuse to deal with Jessica!
"Everyone, let's eat," Daniel said as he sat beside Qiao Mei.
Sky City was located inland and it was not easy to get seafood, so seafood was especially expensive. Today, they had specially prepared a full table of seafood to suit Daniel's taste. Everyone started eating except for Qiao Mei, who sat there without moving.
Jessica raised her fork and knife and said mockingly, "Don't tell me you haven't eaten these things before? If you don't know how to start, I can get the butler to help you."

"When I eat these things at home, my father and elder brother will peel off the shells for me. I never do it myself," Qiao Mei said with a smile.
Jessica's eyes dimmed. Alan and Daniel had never been nice to her. They would only talk to her nicely when she was useful and their family was not as close as rumored.
Daniel quickly picked up a few crabs and began skillfully cracking the shells. This was the first time he had ever served another person. From what Qiao Mei said, it seemed that she must have come from a very rich family. If he could be with Qiao Mei in the future, it would be of some help to the organization.
Jessica and the butler looked at Daniel in surprise. This was also the first time they had seen Daniel done so much for a woman.
"Thank you," Qiao Mei said sweetly to Daniel.
Qiao Mei was actually telling the truth. Since she was young, she had always gobbled her food very fast and would often choke on fish bones and bone fragments. Qiao Qiang was very scared that her throat would get hurt, so he would crack the shells for her and put the meat in a bowl for her to eat.
After dinner, Qiao Mei looked at Daniel and said, "You still have a few cars that you haven't shown me! Let's go to the garage to take another look!"
"Sure!" Daniel brought Qiao Mei to the garage and Xia Zhe wanted to follow closely behind. Jessica immediately stopped Xia Zhe.
"Fang Chen, you should go and try your suit," Jessica said.
"It doesn't matter what I wear." After saying that, Xia Zhe followed behind Daniel and Qiao Mei.
The three of them started to look at the cars again. From time to time, Qiao Mei and Xia Zhe would ask Daniel questions. After a while, Qiao Mei and Xia Zhe started to talk to each other.
"You'd better go now," Xia Zhe said.
"Don't even think about it. I won't leave," Qiao Mei said.
Xia Zhe sighed. There was nothing he could do about Qiao Mei's stubborn temper, but it would be helpful to him if she stayed. After all, she was quite good at hiding things and she was always able to find anything that was difficult to find.
Daniel spent another hour introducing all the cars in the garage. For the first time, he felt that it was not a good thing to have so many cars. He was so tired that he did not want to talk for a while.
Qiao Mei sat at the side and looked at the lively scene outside. It was getting late, but she did not show any intention of going home.
Daniel immediately said, "It's so late and your house is very far from here. The ceremony will start very early tomorrow. Why don't you stay here tonight?"
"Very early? What time will it start?" Qiao Mei asked curiously.
The local lifestyle was such that everyone would only get up at around 10 a.m. to go to work. Daniel replied without thinking, "8 a.m.!"
