Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce

439 Mistake
Huo Zhou looked at Qiao An suspiciously. “Why are you asking about this?”

Qiao An’s face instantly revealed resentment. “I want to avenge Sister Qianqian and kill those bandits.”

Huo Zhou didn’t expect Qiao An to be so ambitious and immediately admired her.

He thought for a moment and said leisurely, “When I liked Qianqian, I asked around about her. At that time, I only knew that she was hardworking and went to the martial arts hall to practice after studying. I heard that her ambition was to be a police officer.”

Qiao An’s expression was dark. “Actually, Sister Qianqian doesn’t want to be a police officer. Her real wish is to be a doctor who saves the dying and helps the injured. I think it’s because an event in the Lu family changed Qianqian’s mind. And this event is Qianyu’s disappearance, right?”

Huo Zhou nodded. “Later on, I became very close to Qianqian. She would occasionally tell us about her family. After her sister disappeared, her father was depressed and often blamed Auntie Lu for not protecting Qianyu well and losing her youngest daughter.”

Qiao An frowned. “So Father Lu still values this daughter?”

Huo Zhou glared at her in surprise. “Which child’s parents don’t love him?”

Qiao An said, “What you say makes sense, but there are always some exceptions in this world.” She asked anxiously, “Then what’s Mrs. Lu’s attitude towards her daughter’s disappearance?”

Huo Zhou sighed and said, “I think Aunt Lu is also sad. However, Aunt Lu is more optimistic than Uncle Lu. This matter didn’t affect her for long. This is what Qianqian is gratified about.”

Qiao An thought of Lu Qianyu’s reprimand of Mrs. Lu and felt that it was not unreasonable. However, she could not understand. If Qianyu was really sold by Mrs. Lu to the human traffickers, what was Mrs. Lu’s reason for doing so?

A mother who sold her biological child must have had her own difficulties. Could it be that the Lu family’s financial situation was not good at that time?

“Cousin, was Sister Qianqian poor when she was young?”

Huo Zhou said, “They were a well-off family. Otherwise, how could they have the money to provide for Qianqian to attend training classes?”

Qiao An’s guess fell through and she frowned again.

Huo Zhou asked him, “Qiao An, what exactly are you investigating?”

Qiao An looked at Huo Zhou steadily and stopped hiding it. “Lu Qianyu accused Mrs. Lu of selling her to human traffickers, and Mrs. Lu insisted that she was lost. I think one of them must have lied.”

Huo Zhou smiled and said, “Is there a need to investigate? If Rosa can pretend to be Qianqian and stay between us, she’s the reincarnation of a liar.”

Qiao An shook her head. “But I keep feeling that Rosa has no reason to lie. Besides, after hearing so much from you, Mrs. Lu is also suspected of abandoning her.”

Huo Zhou said, “Aunt Lu is optimistic and doesn’t indulge in sorrow. Is that wrong?”

Qiao An murmured, “Huo Zhou, you haven’t been a parent. If I lose my child, I won’t be happy for the rest of my life. A child is a mother’s life.”

Huo Zhou was dumbfounded.

He suddenly remembered Qianqian’s heroic act of giving birth to Joey before she died and immediately understood the greatness of motherly love.

With that in perspective, Aunt Lu’s actions were indeed abnormal.

At this moment, Huo Zhou mentioned something. “The Lu family has two daughters and has taken up two fertility indicators in their family register. Could it be that Mother Lu favors boys over girls and wants to have a son?”

“Mrs. Lu favored boys over girls?” Qiao An was excited.

Huo Zhou said, “I don’t know if she favors boys over girls, but I heard from our grandma that the old lady of the Lu family is a very traditional woman. When Auntie Lu gave birth to Sister Qianqian, she despised her. She said that she was going to cut off the Lu family’s bloodline.”

Qiao An stood up. “This is probably why Mrs. Lu abandoned Lu Qianyu. It’s also the source of the hatred in Rosa’s heart.”

Qiao An gestured to Huo Xiaoran, who stopped filming. Huo Zhou looked at him speechlessly. “Why were you filming me?”

Huo Xiaoran patted his shoulder. “Everything you said today can be used as evidence in court in the future.”

Huo Zhou was speechless. “Don’t worry, I won’t tamper with my statement at any time.”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Who would believe you? You become inconsistent when you see a woman.”

Huo Zhou smiled shyly.

Huo Xiaoran suggested seriously, “Zhou Zhou, you’re already in your forties. You’ve kept your chastity for Lu Qianqian for so many years and wasted your youth. Isn’t it time to let her go now?”

Huo Zhou said in pain, “How can it be easy?”

Huo Xiaoran glanced at smashed wine decanter on the ground. He did not want his good brother to be trapped by love and be alone for the rest of his life.

“Zhou Zhou, if Qianqian is still in this world, she won’t want you to like her stubbornly. Because her heart belongs to someone else. She and Xiao Ming are a match made in heaven.”

“Xiao Ming doesn’t deserve her,” Huo Zhou said angrily.

Huo Xiaoran said, “You’re wrong. Only Xiao Ming, who took the risk alone, is worthy of the heroic Qianqian. They’re the same kind of people.”

Huo Xiaoran’s next words completely ended Huo Zhou’s thoughts about Qianqian.

“If Qianqian and Xiao Ming are still alive, then your existence is only a shameful third party. They won’t welcome you in their world. Just like me, I’ve never appreciated Lu Mo’s fondness for me.”

Huo Zhou looked at Huo Xiaoran in a daze. “Do you have to make it sound so ugly?”

“Faithful words hurt the ear,” Huo Xiaoran said.

Huo Zhou fell onto the sofa.

Huo Xiaoran held Qiao An’s hand and said, “Let’s go and let him think about it.”

When Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran returned to the Heavenly Imperial Garden, they saw Old Madam Xiao and Xiao Yue’s mother waiting at the door with fresh fruits.

When Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran walked over, the two women looked ashamed and awkward. Xiao Yue’s mother held Qiao An’s hand and said regretfully, “An’an, I’m sorry. In the past, our Xiao family misunderstood you and didn’t respect you enough. My mother and I specially came to apologize to you.”

Qiao An looked at the fresh and plump cherries in the basket and smiled. “Are you here to apologize to me, or to see the child?”

The two women laughed coyly. “Nothing really escapes your eyes.”

Old Madam Xiao choked and said, “An’an, take pity on an old woman like me. I lost my son and grandson. I can’t ignore their orphan.”

Qiao An said, “I’ll allow you to see her. But…”
