Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Qiao An glanced at Xiao Yue resentfully and argued with a red face, “Lu Mo, you misunderstood me.”

“Misunderstood you?” Old Madam Huo was already standing behind Lu Mo. She glared at Qiao An unhappily.

“Qiao An, you clearly promised me to leave my Xiaoran. Why did you go back on your word? You’re dressed up so formally today. You clearly want to win Xiaoran back. Do you dare to say no?” The old lady said sharply.

Qiao An was ashamed.

Huo Xiaoran crossed his arms and looked at Qiao An calmly, but his eyes flickered with surprise.

Had she really come to win him back?

After a long while, Qiao An stammered, “Madam Huo, you’ve misunderstood me. I’m not here to ruin their relationship today. I’m here to give them my blessings.”

Huo Xiaoran’s expression instantly darkened.

“I don’t need your blessing,” he said gloomily.

Because Huo Xiaoran didn’t give Qiao An any respect, Madam Huo revealed a mocking expression. She sneered and said, “I originally thought that you had some backbone and some clarity. I more or less admired you. However, your performance today disappointed me. Qiao An, you actually dared to trick me. I remember I said that if you can’t keep your promise, I won’t let you off easily.”

Qiao An was originally ashamed because she had lived like Wei Xin today. However, this was not her intention. She had been tricked by Xiao Yue.

It was one thing for Madam Huo to not ask about the truth, but she was so unreasonable and domineering. If she tried to bully the weak, then she was not someone to be trifled with.

Qiao An’s expression was cold, and her tone turned cold. “Since Old Madam insists that I’m a despicable person who doesn’t keep her word, I have nothing to say. It’s just that Old Madam wants to punish me. You’re just using the Huo family’s power to keep out a small fry like me, right?”

Madam Huo was about to open her mouth when Qiao An stopped her.

Qiao An smiled flirtatiously. “Old Madam, I advise you not to do that. I may not seem like a woman of my word, but your granddaughter-in-law might be a more scheming woman than I am. You’re targeting me for her sake because you’re afraid of undermining your wisdom.”

Madam Huo narrowed her eyes. Qiao An’s words had indeed sounded a warning bell for her. Although she didn’t like Qiao An’s domineering attitude, she didn’t know anything about Lu Mo.

As expected, Madam Huo’s attitude softened. She said to Qiao An in disdain, “Qiao An, I don’t want to see you again.”

Lu Mo had originally hoped that Madam Huo and Qiao An would have a conflict, preferably to the point of irreconciliation. Unexpectedly, Qiao An made Madam Huo forgive her with just a few words.

How could Lu Mo watch such a good opportunity slip away? She deliberately sowed discord. “Qiao An, you’re not afraid that Madam Huo will target you because Xiaoran gave you a lot of money, enough for you to squander for a few lifetimes. You don’t need a job at all.”

Hearing this, Madam Huo was furious. She looked at Huo Xiaoran in disbelief. “Xiaoran, did you really give Qiao An a lot of money?”

“Not much, just 600 million,” Huo Xiaoran said indifferently.

Six hundred million? Lu Mo’s heart ached. If he didn’t give it to Qiao An, this six hundred million would be hers.

Madam Huo reprimanded Huo Xiaoran. “Nonsense, what’s your relationship with Qiao An? She’s just your ex-girlfriend. You won’t do your reputation any favors by giving her money. In the future, your money can only be used by Lu Mo.”

Lu Mo’s eyes revealed joy.

Huo Xiaoran looked at Qiao An indifferently. The calmness on her face could not hide the redness in her eyes. Huo Xiaoran subconsciously clenched his fists.

His heart ached for Qiao An.

However, the more his heart ached for Qiao An, the more he doted on Lu Mo.

“Very well,” he agreed readily to the old lady’s suggestion.

Lu Mo glanced at Huo Xiaoran. Seeing how cold he was to Qiao An, she was overjoyed. She felt that her senior had finally changed his mind about her.

Lu Mo said proudly to Qiao An, “Qiao An, did you hear that? Xiaoran and I don’t need your blessings. Why are you still standing here?”

Humiliated to such an extent, Qiao An turned silently away. But she ran into an open embrace.

A large arm hugged her powerfully. Qiao An looked up in panic. When she saw the man in front of her, her face turned as pale as paper.

The roar of the gun and fire three years ago made her head hurt.

“Sister Qiao.” The man looked at her gently.

Everyone else present was shocked.

Huo Xiaoran’s face lost color inch by inch. He looked at Qiao An like he was going to lose her again. He wanted to push her into his ancient well and bury her with him.

“Xiao Ming, you’re back.” Madam Huo couldn’t hide her surprise.

Xiao Ming was the grandson of Madam Huo’s sister. Madam Huo had always treated the children of the Xiao family as her own.

It was the same for Xiao Yue and Xiao Ming.

“Brother, when did you come back? Didn’t you open a few chain companies overseas? Aren’t you very busy? You haven’t been home for three years.”

Everyone’s attention was on Xiao Ming, but Xiao Ming’s gaze never left Qiao An.

“You’ve lost weight.”

Qiao An squirmed awkwardly out of his arms, but Xiao Ming held her tightly. His lips brushed her ear as he whispered, “What they said to you was awful. If you want to make up for it, you’ll do as I say.”

Qiao An was stunned. She fell silent.

Xiao Ming explained to everyone, “Aunt, you’ve misunderstood Qiao An. Actually, I invited Qiao An over as a guest.”

The two grandsons that Madam Huo favored the most, Huo Xiaoran and Xiao Ming, were both tainted by Qiao An. The old lady looked at Qiao An even more icily.

“Xiao Ming, you probably don’t know about Qiao An and Xiaoran yet. She’s Xiaoran’s ex-girlfriend and Xiaoran’s ex-niece-in-law. I advise you to stay away from her.”

But Xiao Ming smiled. “I don’t care what her previous life was like. I only care about her future. With me in the future, I won’t let her suffer at all.”

Qiao An elbowed him and shot him a look. “Too much.”

Xiao Ming was unmoved, but he looked at Huo Xiaoran provocatively.

“Is this Cousin Huo Xiaoran?”

Huo Xiaoran’s face darkened. He studied Xiao Ming with his hawk-like eyes and realized that Xiao Ming’s face was familiar. After thinking for a long time, it finally dawned on him. He was so similar to Qiao An’s daughter, Joey.

Huo Xiaoran’s heart instantly sank.
