Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Qiao An was a little reserved. After all, Huo Xiaoran had a girlfriend now. She was afraid that his girlfriend would be unhappy if she visited rashly.

She stood hesitantly outside the small carved door. In the end, she did not have the courage to step in.

Huo Xiaoran frowned. “Qiao An, come in.”

Only then did Qiao An dawdle into the courtyard.

“My brother is disturbing you by staying here. I’d better take him home. I’ll take him to the hospital tomorrow,” Qiao An said uneasily.

Huo Xiaoran stopped in his tracks and suddenly turned around. Because Qiao An had been following him, Qiao An bumped into him.

When she instinctively leaned back, she lost her balance and staggered. Huo Xiaoran quickly reached out and pulled her into his arms.

Qiao An quickly pushed him away.

Huo Xiaoran explained with a serious expression, “Qiao An, I’m the only one living here.”

Qiao An’s dark eyes widened in shock.

“Lu Mo isn’t here?”

Huo Xiaoran said calmly, “I don’t have the habit of living together before marriage.”

Qiao An said, “Oh.”

However, when she thought of how Huo Xiaoran was about to get engaged to Lu Mo, she said, “Soon.”

This tone was meant to comfort Huo Xiaoran.

Huo Xiaoran stared straight at her. “You don’t have to worry about such things.” He felt suffocated.

Qiao An looked up, feeling as if she had meddled in something completely unrelated to her. She smiled shyly and awkwardly.

Her smile was beautiful in the night.

Huo Xiaoran’s heart fluttered.

“I heard from Qiao He that you haven’t had a boyfriend since your divorce?” Huo Xiaoran suddenly asked.

Qiao An was a little flustered, afraid that her love for him would be revealed. She had always been proud, and she was determined to save her dignity. She said carelessly, “Oh, as you know, I’ve been busy with work for the past few years. I haven’t had time to fall in love. But I’ve recently realized that I’m not young anymore and it’s time to face this matter head-on. Therefore, I’ve started preparing for blind dates.”

He had a girlfriend, and she was not to be outdone. She had to find a boyfriend. Even if it was a verbal battle.

Huo Xiaoran said, “Since you love work so much, Qiao An, why don’t you return to Hai Yue Corporation? I promise you that I’ll give you full authority and freedom. If you’re afraid that Lu Mo will interfere with your work, I can quit the management of Hai Yue Corporation.”

The starlight in Qiao An’s eyes dimmed. If he withdrew from the Hai Yue, she had less of a reason to stay there.

She said, “I’ve been working for two and a half years. That’s a long time. I haven’t stopped updating even on holidays. But I’m a little tired now. Let’s stop for now. We’ll talk about it later.”

Huo Xiaoran’s heart ached for her. “You don’t have to work so hard. You can update as much as you want every day. It doesn’t matter if you stop occasionally during holidays, so just treat it as your hobby.”

Qiao An said, “Life isn’t always the same. I think I need to make some changes, too.”

It was as if she would go crazy if she didn’t change the fact that she liked Huo Xiaoran.

Huo Xiaoran suddenly realized what she had just said and his face darkened.

“You’re… going on a blind date?”

Qiao An nodded. “Although there are many people who like me, I’m also very picky. I don’t like rich uncles, and childish young hunks can’t match my heart. And men with both looks and talent are probably extinct.”

“What about me. What kind am I?”

Qiao An was stunned.

Then, she smiled and said, “A rich uncle.”

Huo Xiaoran couldn’t stand it anymore and turned to leave.

Qiao An couldn’t help but laugh.

She followed Huo Xiaoran into the house. There was a pair of fluffy crystal slippers at the door. Qiao An was a little embarrassed. These should be Lu Mo’s shoes.

With Lu Mo’s hostility towards her, if she violated her things, she would definitely be unhappy with her.

“Any shoe covers?” Qiao An asked.

Huo Xiaoran turned around and said coldly, “When did you become so particular?”

Qiao An said, “I’m wearing your girlfriend’s shoes. I’m afraid she would be unhappy.”

His gaze landed on Qiao An’s slender feet. Couldn’t this little girl tell that this was prepared for her?

“No shoe covers in the house,” he said coolly.

Only then did Qiao An reluctantly put on the slippers.

After entering the house, she sat on the sofa cautiously, not daring to look around.

“Lu Mo is not a big tiger. Why are you afraid of her?” Huo Xiaoran handed her a glass of orange juice.

Qiao An loved this sweet and sour drink. She took it and took a long sip. Then she said leisurely,

“I’m not afraid of Lu Mo. I’m just respecting her. After all, she’s your girlfriend. It’s not right for me to meet you in private.”

Huo Xiaoran was stunned and his handsome face froze.

He suddenly realized that he had done something wrong. Since he was together with Lu Mo, he had completely blocked Qiao An’s way home. Because Qiao An had once suffered from a third party, she would never be one herself.

Huo Xiaoran’s heart suddenly felt very heavy.

“Qiao An, this compound is your favorite pastoral style. Feel free to wander.”

“No, no.” Qiao An waved her hands frantically.

Looking at Qiao An’s reserved and helpless appearance, Huo Xiaoran recalled how arrogant and domineering she was when she first entered his rented apartment. Huo Xiaoran felt suffocated.

This was the home he had given her. Huo Xiaoran felt sad. All the beauty he wanted to give Qiao An had turned into poison. The same was true of work and home.

Huo Xiaoran sighed softly. “You’ll have to go in with me to see Qiao He, right?”

Only then did Qiao An stand up and walk straight after him.

Huo Xiaoran led her through a long, baroque corridor. The walls on both sides of the passageway were filled with oil paintings that he had given her. If she could take a look, she should understand the meaning of the existence of this residence.

But Qiao An kept her head down, her gaze tightly restricted to an inch of ground at her feet.

Huo Xiaoran brought her upstairs and turned down the corridor. In the end, Qiao An felt that the size of the place was surreall. She looked up and asked him, “Don’t you have an elevator at your house?”

Huo Xiaoran smiled mischievously.

He leaned against the wall and looked at her calmly. “I showed you the house. Did you like it?”

Qiao An was panting from exhaustion. Seeing Huo Xiaoran’s annoying expression, she was furious.

“Who wants a tour of your house? Besides, it’s a big house. You’d be wasting land resources living alone.”

Huo Xiaoran smacked his lips and said dejectedly, “It’s indeed a little empty. When I bought it, I thought I would have a bunch of children and a beautiful wife. This way, every room here won’t be wasted.”

Qiao An stared blankly.
