Chapter 197: Lu Mo’s Act

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“There’s so much good in Qiao An that I can’t tell you all about it. I’m the one who did wrong by her doing this to me now, and I don’t blame her. She’s always been a girl who knows what she likes and dislikes.”

Huo Zhou sighed. “She’s too angry.”

Huo Xiaoran said sympathetically, “She wasn’t like this in the past. I think she met the wrong person and fell off a building. Her body wasn’t in good condition and her endocrine was out of whack, causing her to be irritable. I can understand her.”

Huo Zhou sighed. “Xiaoran, she treated you well in the past. Don’t forget that after she saw Li Zecheng, she fell in love with someone else.”

Huo Xiaoran’s expression darkened. He didn’t fly into a rage out of humiliation or hate Qiao An because of her change of heart. On the contrary, he felt extremely guilty. “When she was with me, she had a hard time. I never gave her any hope. Li Zecheng probably gave her a little sweetness and let her suffer.”

Huo Zhou sighed.

Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An’s love made him feel inexplicably stifled. He felt that Qiao An had once loved Xiao Ran so much, and Xiao Ran loved Qiao An now. It was too difficult for them to not be together.

After Huo Xiaoran finished breakfast, he prepared an extra breakfast for Qiao An. He prepared all the desserts she liked.

When he returned to the presidential suite, Qiao An was still in bed.

Huo Xiaoran placed the breakfast on the coffee table and entered the bedroom.

He came to the bed and smiled at the sight of Qiao An’s sweet sleeping form. He smoothed back her seaweed-like hair, revealing her porcelain face. Then he called out gently, “An’an.”

But Qiao An’s cold eyes snapped open.

“Where’s Lu Mo?” She remembered why she had appeared on Huo Xiaoran’s bed last night.

......

Lu Mo handed her the glass of wine. There was something suspicious; he had always been a vengeful person.

Huo Xiaoran was slightly stunned and avoided the main point. “You’re awake?”

“I went to get you breakfast, all your favorite desserts. Get up and eat.”

Qiao An looked at him questioningly. Had the guy upgraded his sugar-coated bullets?

“Huo Xiaoran, are you feeling guilty?” she asked coldly.

Huo Xiaoran couldn’t avoid Qiao An’s pursuit and could only explain, “Qiao An, it wasn’t Lu Mo who drugged you.”

His urgent defense of Lu Mo made Qiao An’s eyes turn cold.

“Oh, you have proof that she didn’t drug me?” she said faintly. Her tone was oppressive.

Huo Xiaoran said, “Her cousin, Lu Youcai, personally admitted that he drooled over your beauty and drugged you.”

“You believe that?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Qiao An, Momo might be spoiled occasionally, but she’s still pure and kind. She can’t have done such a immoral thing.”

He was so sure of Lu Mo’s character that he sounded like he admired her. Qiao An knew that there was no need for her to argue with him. Her face drooped with indignation.

Huo Xiaoran didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Qiao An, you don’t believe me?”

Qiao An said coolly, “Love blinds a man. There’s no point in me talking to you.”

Huo Xiaoran was very helpless. “If you insist on seeing her, I’ll call her over.”

“There’s no need.” Qiao An’s tone was distant. “I’ll handle my own affairs. Don’t worry about it.”

Qiao An clearly didn’t trust Huo Xiaoran, which hurt him.mHe didn’t understand why he was so unworthy of her trust. He backed out silently.

After Qiao An got out of bed, she walked into the bathroom, washed up, and put on makeup. She was stunned when she saw herself in the mirror wearing a large black sweater.

She was actually wearing Huo Xiaoran’s private clothes?

It was Huo Xiaoran who had changed her clothes.

Qiao An thought of her pajamas and her face burned. She quickly returned to her room. Then she took off Huo Xiaoran’s sweater and changed into her own clothes. Only then did she rush to the last process of the ceremony… the author’s interview and the lucky draw ceremony.

The so-called raffle was interspersed with a few meaningful interviews or events. Qiao An was late and secretly sat in the empty seat at the back.

For some reason, she was really happy.

Twice her name was summoned as the stars of the show spun the wheel. She got the two most popular robots of the day.

Qiao An held the robot, but she was worried. She had three cute babies at home, and she had only drawn two robots. How could she distribute them?

After the lucky draw, she came out of the venue.

She saw Huo Xiaoran walking towards her with a robot in his hand.

Qiao An’s eyes went greedily to his robot.

Huo Xiaoran raised the robot and asked her in surprise, “You like this?” He remembered that she clearly liked fluffy dolls. When did she change?

Qiao An nodded.

Huo Xiaoran handed the robot to her. “Here.”

As Qiao An reached out to take it, Lu Mo’s voice sounded. “Senior, I want it too.”

Huo Xiaoran’s hand froze in the air.

Glancing at the two robots in Qiao An’s arms, Huo Xiaoran handed the robot to Lu Mo.

Qiao An felt a pang of disappointment.

At this moment, Qiao An noticed a man following Lu Mo. The man bent down and lowered his head, silently following behind Lu Mo.

Lu Mo quickly apologized to her. “Qiao An, what happened yesterday was all my cousin’s fault. When this child saw how beautiful you were, he secretly drugged the red wine I served you. Fortunately, it didn’t cause a disaster.”

Qiao An glared at the man beside Lu Mo and ordered fiercely, “Look up.”

The man looked up. Qiao An remembered his face.

His face was scarred and he looked extremely disheveled.

Lu Mo explained, “After my parents found out about what he did yesterday, they beat him up. He was also unlucky to have suffered a mixed doubles assault last night. Other than my parents, Senior also taught him a lesson. I’m afraid he can’t do anything now.”

Qiao An pondered the meaning of Lu Mo’s actions.

“You want me to forgive him?”

In the past, Qiao An might have forgiven him for Lu Mo’s sake.

But this was the second time the Lu family had hurt her. If she chose to forgive them, they would definitely think that she was easy to bully. Who knew how she would suffer in the future?

“Qiao An, my cousin has received his punishment. Besides, he didn’t hurt you. Can you forgive him?” Lu Mo said.

“I can’t forgive him,” Qiao An said fiercely.

Lu Mo had originally brought her cousin over to apologize to Qiao An, not sincerely. It was for her to clear her name in front of Huo Xiaoran.

Who knew? She had failed again.

She’d met the difficult Qiao An.

“Qiao An, what do you want?” Lu Mo suppressed the anger in her heart.
