1584 Children Fooling Around
Ever since Mao Wei heard that Xia Zhe had recently moved to the family compound in the army base, he had felt excited for days. All this while, he was unable to give Xia Zhe any gifts at all. Even if he sent something over, the gifts would be returned to him immediately. Now that Xia Zhe’s family had come over, he did not believe that they would also reject his gifts.

“Cry, cry, cry! You only know how to cry! Don’t you see that I have a guest here? Hold it in!” Mao Wei said unhappily.

Xia Zhe did not care about this at all. He had no interest in other people’s family matters. He just wanted to go home early and spend time with Qiao Mei. However, he thought that the pram in the distance looked familiar. It seemed to be the pram that Xia Wen had bought for the children. Furthermore, there were no other prams meant for twins in this compound.

Lu Lin did not care about all this. She thought that since Xia Zhe was so young, then he must be a newbie. He could not be ranked higher than her husband. The most important thing now was her son!

“Go and take a look at our son! Our son is rolling around on the ground from the pain of being bitten! Go and take a look now!” Lu Lin said.

“I’m really sorry. I have to go and settle some family matters first. It seems that my child has been bullied,” Mao Wei said to Xia Zhe apologetically.

“I’ll go and take a look too,” Xia Zhe said.

Mao Wei thought that Xia Zhe wanted to back him up, so he instantly straightened his back and walked over.

He hurriedly ran to his son’s side and said worriedly, “Dad is here! Tell me who bit you! I’ll stand up for you!”

Qiao Mei raised her eyes to look at Xia Zhe and then at the family putting on a show next to her. “When can we go home? I’m hungry.”

Before Xia Zhe could speak, Mao Wei immediately stood up and rushed to Qiao Mei, saying, “You still have the cheek to be hungry! It must be your child who bit my son! Don’t even think about leaving! Give me money for my child’s treatment! And then let my son bite your child back! Otherwise, don’t even think about leaving today!”

“Company Commander Mao, isn’t this a bit too much?” Xia Zhe said with a slight frown.

“Sir, look at my son! Her child has bitten my son so badly! What if the wound gets infected!” Mao Wei said angrily.

Xia Zhe walked forward and picked Xia Fan up. He looked at the baby boy closely and said, “Tell Dad the truth. Did you do it? If yes, just nod your head.”

Mao Wei stood rooted to the spot and did not dare to make a sound. He did not expect the woman in front of him and the two children beside her to be Xia Zhe’s wife and children! He was in big trouble this time!

At first, Xia Fan was like an indomitable soldier. However, once he saw Xia Zhe, he immediately looked aggrieved and started crying loudly. Xia Zhe also noticed the red mark on Xia Fan’s forehead.

“What happened?” Xia Zhe frowned slightly and asked Qiao Mei.

“Their son took a fancy to our pram and tried to throw the baby out of the pram without even saying anything. Tuan Tuan’s head hit the sidebar and when Yuan Yuan saw that her elder brother was being bullied, she bit the boy.” Qiao Mei recounted the whole story factually.

Lu Lin immediately said, “You’re lying! That’s not what happened! You’re talking nonsense!”

Mao Wei pulled Lu Lin behind him and then grinned at Xia Zhe as he said, “Sir, so these are your children. No wonder he’s so good-looking! One look and I can tell that he looks like you!”

“Don’t say such useless things. Since we can’t reach a consensus on this matter, let’s ask our superior to be the judge. I don’t want you to be wrongly accused or blamed for something that’s not your fault,” Xia Zhe said coldly. His gaze was like a knife stabbing into Mao Wei.

“No, no, no! There’s no need! This is just a misunderstanding! We’re all neighbors. It’s normal for children to fight!” Mao Wei said with a smile.

Xia Zhe looked at Mao Wei sternly and said, “My child is only six months old and can’t withstand such a fight. Besides, I’m also very curious about how a six-month-old child can provoke your child who’s already six or seven years old.”

“It’s all my fault! Everything’s my fault! It’s my son who hurt him in a moment of excitement!” Mao Wei was so frightened that he quickly corrected himself.

Qiao Mei hugged Xia Xing and watched the commotion leisurely. She wanted Xia Xing to see how capable and handsome her father was and how heroic he looked when he protected them.

“Then your son…” Xia Zhe looked at the child whom Lu Lin was hugging. Mao Wei quickly said, “He’s fine! A boy has tough skin! It’s no big deal!”
