Chapter 639: 639 chapters, so many things to do

Xia Chuyi finished speaking and left with a swing of her hand, leaving Xia Lan standing there, without any intention of stopping her.

When did Xia Chuyi become so close to the Ou Family?

Xia Lan’s face showed both surprise and panic.

So, apart from Mrs. Ou, even Ou Jun had met Xia Chuyi and acknowledged her as a sister?

Xia Lan’s whole demeanor, her gaze, and expressions were all filled with anxiety.

She had always thought that only Mrs. Ou from the Ou Family had met Xia Chuyi, but by a twist of fate, the Ou Family had mistaken “Ou Jiao” for Xia Chuyi.

She had considered that even if Mrs. Ou returned and met “Ou Jiao,” realizing her mistake, it would probably take some time to find Xia Chuyi.

Then, during this period, she could find a way to improve her relationship with Xia Chuyi.

Or, she could delay the time it took for Xia Chuyi to be found.

But now, she had just discovered that Xia Chuyi actually knew Ou Jun, and they had become sworn siblings!

In that case, wasn’t her plan completely disrupted?

Xia Lan bit her lip and thought: No, she must find a way to mend the relationship with Xia Chuyi!

Right, Mother Xia, she could start with Mother Xia!

In Xia Chuyi’s heart, she was still the daughter of Mother Xia, right?

Xia Lan’s eyes darted around.

Additionally, there was another matter… Xia Lan had always suspected that Ou Lianlian from the Ou Family was the biological daughter of Mother Xia.

Hadn’t Mother Xia once mentioned her daughter had a certain birthmark?

If she couldn’t make progress with Xia Chuyi, then Ou Lianlian could also be exploited.

Xia Lan thought to herself.

It seemed she needed to make a trip back to Ling County.

Also, now that Xia Chuyi was on summer vacation, she would probably return too, right?

Perfect, she could go back with her, hitting two birds with one stone.

Little did the already departed Xia Chuyi know that she was once again the target of Xia Lan’s schemes.

After returning to “Youwei,” Xia Chuyi received a warm welcome from everyone.

“Chuyi, I think it’s about time we can open a third branch,” was Meng Xingmang’s way of welcoming her.

Qian Qianqian’s welcome: “Chuyi, I agree! I also think it’s possible! The people Xiao Yun has chosen to bring into the store to learn are quite good.”

The “people Xiao Yun has chosen” Qian Qianqian referred to were the staff that Xia Chuyi and Huo Shiqian had discussed bringing in initially—the retired soldiers and military wives.

“Sister, I’m learning cooking from Master Guan now, and Master Guan said I will continue to learn from him,” the young Xia Pan reported to Xia Chuyi with sparkling eyes.

Panpan learning cooking from Master Guan?

Xia Chuyi blinked, finding it somewhat unbelievable.

So, her apprentice from her past life was now going to become her junior sister in this life?

She patted Xia Pan’s head and said with a gentle smile, “Good child, study hard.”

Master Guan now thought she had a “family secret technique” and was not quite willing to teach her as much, but as long as the apprentice title was retained, Xia Chuyi was quite satisfied.

Only Xia Ming was left. Seeing that everyone seemed to have something to say to her, he too came forward, holding Uncle Quan, and said, “Studying, eating.”

When he said “studying,” he was referring to himself, when he said “eating,” he was pointing to Xia Ming.

“Yes, Chuyi, both Panpan and Mingming should start school!” Qian Qianqian suddenly remembered, smacking her head as she spoke.

“But should Panpan and Mingming go to school back in Ling County, or in the Capital City?” Qian Qianqian asked, somewhat troubled, “Can they go to school in the Capital City?”

Xia Chuyi: …

Why had she finished one “exam” only to be presented with so many “issues”?
