Give Me Your Hands and Marry Me Chapter 35 Shen Xinglan's Invitation

Receiving this news, the whole Xia family was so ecstatic that the unpleasantness caused by A Miao was gone. Xia Yongqiang was talking to his family doctor when he heard this.

He was supposed to have the physical examination last month. However, the doctor had been away, thus he had to reschedule the medical examination to this month. When Xia Wan came in and told him the news, he forgot to be angry with the doctor anymore. He immediately hung up the phone and asked Xia Wan about it.

"Did he personally invite you?"

"It was from his subordinate. I saw the man last time. He is always with Shen Xinglan." Xia Wan excitedly showed the invitation to Xia Yongqiang. "Shen Xinglan invites me to be his prom date."

Xia Yongqiang took it over to have a look, "A birthday party? I didn't see it in the news..."

"What do you mean, Grandpa?" Xia Wan's smile froze. "Is the invitation a fake?"

"Let's wait and see." Xia Yongqiang was an old fox. He had always been careful and cautious. "Go ask around if the Bai family has received it."

Of course, Bai Youran had also received it and he was cursing because he had to go with A Miao, who, however, was sleeping on the bed at this moment. She frowned tightly, her face abnormally flushed.

She had walked in the rain for so long and did not drink anything to keep the cold away afterward. In the end, she could only suffer a high fever that night.

"Mom, why isn't A Miao down here?" The next morning, Xia Wan found out that A Miao didn't go down to eat breakfast.

Yao Lili patted her hand and said, "Don't worry about her. I just checked on her. Her room is locked, so she must be still sleeping!"

Xia Mei took the rest of the porridge and gave it to a female servant, saying, "Go and dump it."

"Xia Mei, don't do this." Xia Wan said so but she did not stop the servant. Yao Lili looked at her daughter and said, "Don't worry. Let's go out to pick a formal dress later. Tomorrow night is very important to you."

"Aunt!" Xia Mei came over. "I want to go with you."

She was pissed because the invitation specifically indicated that people who were not invited could not attend the party. Her name was not on it, so she could not go.

"What are you going to do?" Yao Lili said straightforwardly. "You are not invited. Once you are blocked outside, we will be embarrassed."

Xia Mei threw the chopsticks and said, "Hmph, I will ask grandfather to take me there!"

In the afternoon, Yao Lili and her daughter were about to go shopping when Shen I came.

"These are from our Boss." He waved his hand, and several people behind him took two big boxes out and walked toward Xia Wan.

Shen I looked around, but he didn't find A Miao. He frowned and said, "These are the dresses for the two ladies." Seeing Xia Wan feel puzzled, he smiled and added.

"After all, you also represent the Xia family. You can't look ugly."

Xia Wan immediately understood what Shen I meant.

A Miao would go with them, but she had no dresses to wear. In order not to embarrass herself, Shen Xinglan had to prepare a dress for her.

"Please express my gratitude to Mr. Shen!" After figuring it out, Xia Wan immediately smiled and said, "He is so thoughtful."

Shen I leisurely waved his hand and replied, "I hope Miss Xia likes it." He deliberately looked around. "Hey, why don't I see Miss A Miao?"

Xia Mei chimed in, "She is still sleeping. She always sleeps so late every day."

"Then please hand it to her, Miss Xia." Shen I did not answer Xia Mei. He nodded to Xia Wan and left.

"Hmph, she is too ugly to deserve any beautiful dress." Xia Mei jealously opened one of the boxes. When she saw the white evening gown, her eyes turned red.

"What are you doing?" Xia Wan stopped her. "Put it back."

Xia Mei was going to cry. "Why? Why can she go? Let's see what she wears!" She was going to rip the zipper of the skirt apart.

"If you do this again, I will let Grandpa shut you up!" Xia Wan grabbed the skirt and pushed Xia Mei away.

Xia Mei fell to the ground and couldn't suppress her emotions anymore. She cried out loudly.

"Are you okay? I didn't mean it." Xia Wan's eyes flashed and she reached out to help her up.

"Go away!" Xia Mei pushed her hands away. "I don't need your fake kindness."

Yao Lili was going to scold her when she heard a loud shout.

"Stand up. How uneducated you are!"

Xia Yongqiang walked downstairs and looked at his young granddaughter with a black face.

"Grandpa... I..." Xia Mei was very afraid of Xia Yongqiang. She stood up with the help of the table, sobbing.

Xia Wan shot her a glance and suppressed her disdain. She said, "Grandpa, Xia Mei is still young. Don't be angry at her."

"You should learn more from your sister." Xia Yongqiang knocked on the floor with his cane. "You are so impatient and stupid. How can I take you out?"

"But... But that bitch..."

Xia Yongqiang stared at her. "Shut up!"

"Go back to your dormitory tomorrow. You can only come back whenever you think it through."

Xia Mei cried for mercy, but Xia Yongqiang ignored her and turned away.

"Stop." Xia Wan passed the paper towel to her. "You should be clear about the situation at present. Why are you so capricious?"

Seeing that Xia Mei bit her lip and stopped crying, Xia Wan sighed and said, "Go wash your face and go back to school for a few days. I will talk to grandpa later."

Xia Mei finally left after she was consoled. When she left, Yao Lili gloated and said, "This girl will suffer from this sooner or later." Then she took a look at Xia Wan and asked, "Why are you stopping her? Just let her tear off the dress!"

"Mom, are you stupid?" Xia Wan said angrily. "The clothes were sent here together. If I am dressed well but A Miao isn't, don't we slap Shen Xinglan's face?"

"Moreover, she won't look more beautiful than me." Xia Wan burst into laughter as if she had recalled something. "Do you know why she always wears a hat?"

Yao Lili shook her head and asked, "What happened to her?"

"She shaved her head!" Xia Wan laughed. "I don't know what she was thinking. As long as I imagine that she dresses up with her bald head, I feel so absurd."

"Hahahaha!" Yao Lili laughed, pointing at the box, and asked the servant to take it to A Miao.

The servant quickly came downstairs and hesitantly said, "Mrs."

"What's wrong?" Xia Wan frowned. "She refused?"

"No." The servant said uncertainly. "I think she seems to be sick."

Once Xia Wan heard this, she stood up and went upstairs. Tomorrow's ball was the best opportunity for Bai Youran and A Miao to appear in the eyes of the public. She must make sure A Miao could go.

"A Miao?" The door was half opened before Xia Wan pushed it and went in.

A Miao just came out from the bathroom, and her bald head was full of water, which looked particularly ridiculous.

"What's wrong with you?" Xia Wan tried not to laugh until she found that A Miao was not doing well. "Why is your face so red?"

"I'm having a fever." A Miao's voice sounded hoarse. She picked up the cup and drank half of the water in it.

When Xia Wan realized that she seemed to be pretty ill, she immediately turned around and went downstairs. "I am going to get you some medicines."

"You shall take some pills and have a good sleep. We are going to the banquet tomorrow night together." Xia Wan personally fed A Miao the medicine and helped her cover the quilt. "I will help you hang up the dress. Remember to try it on tomorrow."

A Miao made an ugly smile. Just now, she was still wondering if Xia Wan was giving her the wrong medicine, now it turned out to be the true antipyretic, but... "What banquet? I won't go."

She coughed and said, "I don't want to go. I don't feel well." This was the truth that a blind man could tell.

Xia Wan touched her head and then she noticed that A Miao's eyes seemed to be different from usual.

"What are you looking at?" A Miao suddenly opened her eyes.

"Is it an illusion?" Xia Wan looked at her carefully and found that they still looked dull.

"Have a rest!" She stood up. "You have to go to the party tomorrow."

After she left, A Miao picked up the mirror from the bedside table and looked into it. She pressed her eyes a few times until she found nothing wrong.

Eastern City was a higher-class place than where the Xia's villa located. Each villa had a different style and there was even a building that looked like a spaceship.

It was also the place where A Miao had been to because it was Shen Xinglan's antique villa.

"You didn't see her?" Shen Xinglan was sitting on a large, high-backed chair. His black night-robe made him look sexy and mysterious.

Shen I shrank his neck. He especially wanted to ask his Boss who he was asking for. But he knew that if he dared to ask, he would definitely be killed.

"I only saw the two ladies of the Xia family." After thinking about it, Shen I asked tentatively, "How about I send someone else there to have a look?"

Shen Xinglan did not speak. He squinted, thinking about something no one knew. After a while, he looked up at Shen I and his expression changed. "Why are you still here? You shall go check personally."

"Ah!" Shen I was stunned and he nodded before his Boss's face darkened. "Yes, got it. I will go right away!"

In the midnight, the security system of the Xia family suddenly stopped running without being noticed by the people who were asleep. A black shadow sneaked into a room on the second floor. Looking at the person sleeping on the bed, he picked up the medicine on the bedside table and poured out a pill. Then he left quickly.

After he left, the red dot on the monitoring camera flashed and the camera resumed operation.

"Wanwan!" The next afternoon, Bai Youran rushed to the Xia's villa.

Xia Mei walked toward him and said, "Brother Youran!"

"Xia Mei, where is your sister?"

"She went out to get her hair done." Xia Mei complained, "My grandfather does not want to take me to the party. Can you take me there?"

Bai Youran had no time for this, so he responded perfunctorily, "You are still young. What are you going to do in that kind of party?" Then he pushed her away and went to the second floor.

"Do you want to see the illegitimate child?" Xia Mei screamed angrily, but unfortunately, Bai Youran did not care about her. He entered A Miao's room without knocking on the door.

A Miao just took her medicine, lying in bed feebly. She was wondering if she should go to the hospital when she saw the door being pushed open.

"Do you enter others' rooms without knocking?" Seeing Bai Youran made her headache become more severe.

Bai Youran looked at her and asked, "Are you feeling better?"

"It's none of your business."

"Pfft, I can't wait to see you die." Bai Youran glanced at the dress on the floor. He thought it was prepared by Xia Wan, so he rudely threw it on the bed. "Hurry up and get dressed. You are going to the party with me."

A Miao lay down immediately and said, "I won't go."

"It's not up to you." Bai Youran pulled her quilt. "Change it yourself, or I will change it for you!"
