Chapter 193: Infatuated with Qiao An

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Not far away, Lu Mo looked at Huo Xiaoran. The smile on her face pierced her every nerve. She didn’t understand why Huo Xiaoran didn’t leave Qiao An even though she had seemingly abandoned him time and time again.

She hated Huo Xiaoran’s endless tolerance for Qiao An, but she had forgotten that she was also playing the role of Huo Xiaoran. She missed Huo Xiaoran’s looks, education, and power. No matter how Huo Xiaoran treated her coldly or chased her away, she would always be gentle to him.

Lu Mo endured the displeasure in her heart and walked towards Huo Xiaoran with a smile.

“Senior.” Wishfully, she took his hand.

Huo Xiaoran’s body froze slightly. Lu Mo could feel his resistance to her touch, but in order to show off to Qiao An, not only did she not retreat, she even held Huo Xiaoran’s arm even tighter.

“Senior, Mom hired a famous photographer for us. He’s very busy with his schedule and only has a little free next week. Senior, why don’t you take some time next week to take our wedding photos with me?”

Huo Xiaoran subconsciously glanced at Qiao An, expecting her to react, but Qiao An lowered her head and didn’t react.

Huo Xiaoran turned to look at Lu Mo and said, “Momo, I’m busy next week.”

Lu Mo bit her lip. She was very angry.

Huo Xiaoran’s perfunctory attitude towards her was so obvious; he did not take her seriously at all.

Huo Zhou suddenly walked over and handed the red wine in his hand to Huo Xiaoran. “Xiaoran, there are a few business partners over there. Come with me to toast them.”

Huo Xiaoran took the wine glass and walked past Lu Mo.

Lu Mo was furious.

......

Huo Zhou had clearly deliberately taken Huo Xiaoran away from her. Didn’t she already know that with Huo Xiaoran’s status today, others were rushing to toast him. There was no need for them to make a toast.

However, even though she knew that Huo Zhou and Huo Xiaoran despised her, she couldn’t be angry. If she was angry, she would only push Huo Xiaoran further away.

After Qiao An signed, she sat quietly in the corner. She took some cake, a glass of red wine, and enjoyed the wine and food alone.

She was so beautiful.

Many men wanted to approach her, but because of Qiao An’s aloof aura, they stopped.

After Huo Xiaoran stared at Qiao An for the umpteenth time, Huo Zhou couldn’t stand it anymore. Huo Zhou encouraged Huo Xiaoran, “Isn’t it just picking up a girl? Xiaoran, is this more difficult than opening a window in your patients’ heads?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “A craniotomy isn’t as difficult compared to getting through to her.”

Huo Zhou shook his head and sighed. “There’s no woman in this world who can’t be settled with money.”

Huo Xiaoran smiled bitterly. Three years ago, he had given Qiao An a bank card worth 600 million yuan. That was all the value he had left after buying the Haiyue Corporation. However, she did not turn back after accepting his money.

“Sheloves money. And yet it can’t bend her to change her beliefs and her insistence.’

Huo Zhou refused to believe it. “That’s because you didn’t use it in the right place.”

Huo Zhou pulled Huo Xiaoran and walked towards Qiao An.

Huo Xiaoran was slightly stunned. By the time he regained his senses, Huo Zhou had already pulled him to Qiao An.

Two tall, slender figures suddenly appeared in front of Qiao An, making the light around her even darker.

She couldn’t help but look up and was slightly surprised to see Huo Zhou and Huo Xiaoran.

Huo Zhou pulled over a chair and he and Huo Xiaoran sat down around Qiao An’s round table.

“Qiao An, I’m interested in your book. I want to make a movie out of it. I wonder if you’d be interested?”

“Movie?” If Huo Zhou was talking about shooting an online drama, even a TV show, Qiao An would believe his nonsense.

This was because there was no precedent of making a killing by moving melodramatic marriage novels onto the big screen.

“Are you sure?” Qiao An’s lips curved, and she couldn’t hide the mockery in her eyes.

Huo Zhou was killed on the spot by Qiao An’s disdainful gaze. He felt a sense of tragedy.

“Is there a problem?” Huo Zhou turned to ask Huo Xiaoran.

Huo Xiaoran pursed her lips and smiled.

Although Qiao An was talented, she was just a romantic little woman. She shouldn’t be able to write scripts with complicated feelings. Therefore, it should not be suitable for her to be writing for the big screen.

“Huo Zhou is wrong. He means to film a television drama,” Huo Xiaoran said.

Huo Zhou was stunned. Many great authors had spent their lives hoping that her book would be on the big screen, but Qiao An was so clear-headed. She wasn’t tempted by the present.

He found himself admiring Qiao An more and more.

Qiao An swirled the wine in her glass as if lost in thought.

Huo Xiaoran suddenly grabbed her wrist and snatched the red wine from her hand.

“An’an, drink less.”

Huo Zhou was dumbfounded.

Huo Xiaoran drank so much that he couldn’t find his bearings every day, yet he still had the cheek to persuade Qiao An not to drink.

He loved Qiao An’s body more than his own.

“CEO, I’m a signed author at Hai Yue. It’s up to you whether to film it into a web drama.”

Huo Xiaoran said, “What about the copyright fee? What’s your expectation?”

Qiao An’s bright eyes were open and steady. “Just match it to the grade of the book.”

Huo Xiaoran smiled and nodded lightly. “Okay.”

Huo Zhou saw that the two of them usually fought and killed, but he did not expect them to have a rare moment of harmony.

Huo Zhou said, “But Qiao An, I have a small request. Since this book is your work, I hope you can be the screenwriter for this online drama.”

Qiao An frowned.

She was busy every day now, so how could she have time to be a screenwriter? Besides, if she went out to show her face, would it give the villains a chance to plot against her?

Huo Zhou quickly tempted her. “Qiao An, feel free to mention the remuneration for being a screenwriter.”

Qiao An looked at Huo Xiaoran meaningfully and said, “I’d better not be a screenwriter.”

“Why?” Huo Xiaoran was puzzled. “Isn’t writing a book and moving it to the screen your greatest wish?”

Qiao An looked at him anxiously. “To me, the screenwriter business is a high-risk career. I’d better not do it.”

Huo Zhou didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “How is the screenwriter industry dangerous?”

Qiao An looked at Huo Xiaoran with a gaze that clearly said, “You know it yourself.”

Huo Xiaoran was puzzled. Clearly, he had misunderstood Qiao An’s intentions. He tried his best to relieve Qiao An of her stress and provide a comfortable working environment. “An’an, if you’re tired, we can slow down the serialization. The scriptwriting time can be increased indefinitely.”

Qiao An sneered.

He had gone to great lengths to murder her.

However, Qiao An really wanted to move the book to the screen. Moreover, the Huo family’s film and television business was the most professional in the industry. If she missed this opportunity, she wouldn’t be able to do it again.
