Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

She suddenly recalled the promise she had made when she was young and frivolous. “Brother Xiaoran, I want to give birth to a bunch of children for you. From now on, you won’t feel lonely anymore.”

Heaven have mercy on him. She had given him a bunch of children, but unfortunately, things had changed. The children could not go home.

Huo Xiaoran glanced at Qiao An indifferently and sighed silently. He stood up and walked forward.

He took her to Qiao He’s room, where Qiao He was already sound asleep. There was gauze over his legs, over his hands.

Qiao An was troubled. How could he go home with her like this?

Huo Xiaoran asked her mischievously, “Can you carry him?”

“Huh?” Qiao An shook her head vehemently.

“Then you have only two choices. You can beg me to send him back or you can stay here tonight.”

Qiao An thought for a moment. If she let Huo Xiaoran send her back, he would definitely discover the children at home.

If she stayed here and Lu Mo came tomorrow and saw her, she would probably not be able to clear her name.

“Is there a third option?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “I’ll send you home.”

Qiao An shivered.

“I can go home by myself.”

“I won’t allow it.” Huo Xiaoran stopped her domineeringly.

In the end, she looked at Huo Xiaoran and asked, “Does Lu Mo usually come here?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “She’s been here before. She hasn’t been here for a long time.”

Qiao An clenched her fists and exhaled.

She couldn’t be that unlucky.

“Okay, I’ll stay the night.”

Huo Xiaoran smiled.

“Follow me.” He brought Qiao An to the luxurious, warm, and romantic master bedroom.

“You can sleep here tonight.”

“Ok,” Qiao An said obediently.

After Huo Xiaoran left, Qiao An’s tense nerves relaxed slightly.

Only then did she look up and size up the room.

The decor of the room was all in the style she liked. Pastoral curtains, a princess bed, and a golden grain chart on the wall.

All of this felt familiar to her.

This was clearly the “home” she had once described to Huo Xiaoran.

To her surprise, he’d fulfilled her dream and given his home to someone else. Qiao An couldn’t help but tear up.

That night, her tears wet the pillow.

At ten o’clock, she fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Huo Xiaoran woke up early. He personally cooked a delicious western meal for Qiao An.

Unexpectedly, Lu Mo came.

When Huo Xiaoran saw Lu Mo, his eyes suddenly darkened.

“What are you doing here?” He sounded annoyed.

Ever since Lu Mo came to Heavenly Imperial Garden and took the initiative to throw his gifts into the trash can, he had been a little resistant to Lu Mo’s arrival.

Lu Mo also knew that Huo Xiaoran didn’t like her coming to this house because it was the home he had given Qiao An. However, the Heavenly Imperial Garden was the most expensive building in the capital. She had always wanted to snatch it back.

“Senior, your stomach isn’t good. I was afraid you wouldn’t eat breakfast again, so I specially bought you porridge.” She picked up the food box and smiled brightly.

She knew Huo Xiaoran too well. Huo Xiaoran could not refuse someone who came to please him.

Huo Xiaoran let Lu Mo in.

However, when Lu Mo saw the sumptuous Western food on the dining table for three, she was dumbfounded.

“Senior, did anyone stay over last night?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Yes.”

He was a man of few words. There was no unnecessary explanation.

Lu Mo didn’t dare to ask further.

His gaze shifted to the dining table again and she asked curiously, “Senior, did you make Western food?”

Huo Xiaoran nodded.

“Don’t you hate Western food?” Lu Mo asked curiously.

Huo Xiaoran’s eagle-like gaze landed on Lu Mo. Lu Mo saw the annoyance in his eyes and quickly reflected. “Senior, I don’t mean anything else. I’m just curious.”

As soon as she spoke, she heard the sound of slippers coming from upstairs. Then, she saw a fresh and beautiful woman standing at the stairs.

When Lu Mo saw Qiao An, her face turned pale.

She asked Huo Xiaoran angrily, “Senior, why is she here? Why? Then what am I?”

Qiao An wanted to escape, but she couldn’t.

She could only brace herself and solve the problem that had arisen because of her.

“Lu Mo…”

As soon as she called her, Lu Mo jumped up like a hedgehog and scolded her, “Qiao An, why are you so shameless? You were the one who didn’t want my senior back then. Now that he’s rich, you’re back to suck up to him? Do you think my senior is a fool?”

Huo Xiaoran was about to stop Lu Mo when he heard Qiao An’s firm voice. “Lu Mo, there’s no love between me and Huo Xiaoran.”

Huo Xiaoran seemed to have heard the sound of his heart shattering as he stood rooted to the ground and looked at Qiao An quietly.

Qiao An was actually flustered. In order not to hurt Lu Mo, she had already reached the point of spouting nonsense.

“I stayed here last night simply because my brother is recuperating here. I was worried about my brother, so I came to see him.”

“Who’s going to believe your nonsense? Qiao An, when you jumped off a building to commit suicide back then, Senior and I almost fell sick on the operating table in order to save you. I didn’t expect you to repay your saviors like this. You ruined our relationship. Aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning?”

Qiao An’s face turned pale…

She did feel a little guilty towards Lu Mo.

Lu Mo was her benefactor.

Although her sense of gratitude would occasionally be diluted by the fact that the Lu family driver tried to assassinate her, she did not want to malign Lu Mo before she had evidence that the murderer was directly related to Lu Mo.

It was not in her nature to be ungrateful.

Guilt was all over Qiao An’s face as she said, “Doctor Lu, I have never thought of coming in between the both of you. I am not the type who likes being the third party. In the past, we had a working relationship and would inevitably come into contact with each other. Now that he is Xiao Yue’s cousin, the same is true. I can honestly tell you that I will try my best to stay out of his sight. However, it is quite unavoidable that we will meet sometimes. I hope that you can trust him. After all, he is someone you had taken the initiative to pursue.”

With that, Qiao An picked up her bag from the sofa and staggered away.

Lu Mo’s heart trembled when he saw Huo Xiaoran’s cold and handsome face.

“Senior,” she called out weakly.

Huo Xiaoran said, “Lu Mo, this is Qiao An’s house. You should be the one leaving, not her.”

Lu Mo’s face turned pale.

“Senior, how can you be so cold to me?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “I’m the one who’s cold to Qiao An. Think about my life. She carefully protected me with five years of her youth. Otherwise, I would have died long ago. I promised to give her a home and fulfill her dream… Lu Mo, even if I can’t love her, this was my deal with her back then, but you insisted on turning me into a despicable person who breaks his promise.”
