Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce

Chapter 115 - Promise to Marry Me

Chapter 115: Promise to Marry Me

Old Master Huo had seen countless people, so how could he not tell that Li Xiaoran treated Qiao An differently? Thinking of his daughter who was trapped by love, Old Master Huo couldn’t help but sigh.

“Your mother gave up 100 billion worth of the Huo family assets for your father. Now, for a woman, you’re willing to give up the principle of not doing business unless it’s necessary. Xiaoran, you have the same temper as your mother. Remember that love doesn’t last long.”

Li Xiaoran had always hoped that he could continue his relationship with Qiao An, so he was unwilling to damage Qiao An’s impression in Old Master Huo’s heart. Li Xiaoran tried his best to protect Qiao An. “Grandpa, help her as much as you can.”

Li Xiaoran had never called Old Master Huo Grandpa, but today, for Qiao An, he made an exception. Old Master Huo realized how important Qiao An was to Li Xiaoran.

He picked up the phone and called his assistant. “Take care of Miss Qiao from the Hai Yue Corporation. Don’t neglect her.”

“Yes, Chairman.” The assistant hung up and immediately went to the chairman’s office. He invited Qiao An into the living room and greeted her respectfully.

Qiao An was flattered. She knew that the special treatment was definitely related to Li Xiaoran.

However, she did not know how Li Xiaoran managed to make Old Master Huo relent.

After a secret conversation with Old Master Huo, Li Xiaoran ended the conversation because he was thinking about Qiao An.

“Grandpa, let’s stop here for today. I still have something on. I’ll leave first.”

Old Master Huo’s eyes were filled with reluctance. “Xiaoran, since you can’t hold a scalpel with your hand anymore, then come back to the Huo Corporation. You can choose any company or position in the Huo Corporation. Whether you want to be a grassroots or a CEO, Grandpa will respect you.”

Li Xiaoran could tell from Old Master Huo’s words that he thought highly of him and loved him. He was different from Old Master Li. Old Master Li always forced him to do what he didn’t like in the name of his father. However, Old Master Huo respected his wishes very much.

Li Xiaoran had a very good impression of this grandfather.

......

“I’ll consider it,” Li Xiaoran said before leaving.

After leaving the chairman’s office, he couldn’t wait to go to the living room. He saw Qiao An sitting at the reception table. The table was filled with all kinds of fresh fruits and steaming fruit tea.

Li Xiaoran smiled in relief.

When Qiao An saw him, it was as if he was her savior. She stood up and heaved a sigh of relief. “Can we leave now?”

Li Xiaoran nodded.

Qiao An thanked the assistant humbly and walked out the door.

When Li Xiaoran and Qiao An entered the elevator, Qiao An could not help but ask him curiously, “Why does Old Mr. Huo listen to you?”

Li Xiaoran looked at the reserved Qiao An and smiled gently, but with a hint of cynicism. “I made a deal with him. I’ll leave the hospital and work at the Huo Corporation.”

Qiao An was shocked. “Why?” she asked in confusion. “Isn’t being a doctor what you wish to do?”

Li Xiaoran’s eyes dimmed. At that moment, a deep sadness appeared on his cold and pale face.

The hands in his sleeves shrank in shame. His fingers trembled slightly.

Li Xiaoran said, “After being a doctor for so many years, I’m probably tired. I want to change jobs.”

Qiao An looked regretful.

Li Xiaoran suddenly said, “I’m too poor to be a doctor. Look, I can’t even find a wife at my age.”

Qiao An rolled his eyes at him. “Being a doctor is a noble profession. Many girls dream of marrying a doctor. You can’t get a wife because you’re a casanova pretending to me in a relationship.”

Li Xiaoran shouted aggrievedly, “Qiao An, how did I become a casanova? All these years, I’ve only had feelings for you. A good man like me is about to go extinct.”

Li Xiaoran’s greatest strength was that he dared to love and hate. His greatest weakness might be that he dared to take responsibility, dared to love and dared to say things.

After leaving the Huo Corporation building, Qiao An lowered her head and walked forward quickly. She couldn’t wait to shake Li Xiaoran off.

However, Li Xiaoran strode forward and held her hand. He reminded her angrily, “Qiao An, you ingrate. I helped you so much just now. Aren’t you supposed to invite me to dinner?”

Qiao An was pregnant with Li Xiaoran’s child. She wanted to avoid arousing suspicion with Li Xiaoran to prevent others from thinking that the child in her stomach was Li Xiaoran’s. However, Li Xiaoran stuck to him like a plaster.

Unable to push it over, Qiao An could only bite the bullet and agree.

“I… forgot,” she said, embarrassed.

Li Xiaoran said, “You want to burn the bridge after crossing it, right?”

Qiao An died again.

“What do you want to eat?” Qiao An asked listlessly.

Li Xiaoran pointed at the five-star hotel opposite and said, “Go opposite.”

Qiao An paled. “Can we get something cheaper?”

Li Xiaoran looked at her suspiciously. “How poor are you? Can’t you even afford a meal?”

Qiao An stared at him speechlessly.

Li Xiaoran said confidently, “Didn’t Li Zecheng give you money?”

Qiao An’s glare began to leak murderous intent.

Li Xiaoran continued to court death. “Divorce him and remarry.”

Jo Ann’s pretty face had darkened to coal. Her fists clenched.

Li Xiaoran said, “Marry me!”

Qiao An reached out and pinched his arm hard.

Li Xiaoran gritted his teeth in pain. “Girl, be gentle.”

Seeing him grimace in pain, Qiao An let go. Then she placed her hands on her hips and rolled her eyes at him. “If you spout nonsense again, I’ll beat you up.”

Li Xiaoran said annoyingly, “You’re so fierce. Actually, only a thick-skinned man like me is suitable for you. A delicate pretty boy like Li Zecheng is really not suitable for you.”

Qiao An was so angry that when she crossed the road, she forgot to look at the traffic lights.

A car sped over and Li Xiaoran pulled Qiao An back. Qiao An turned around and fell into Li Xiaoran’s arms.

While she was still in shock, Li Xiaoran hugged her and crossed the road.

Li Xiaoran held her hand and unknowingly arrived at the entrance of the Huo family’s hotel.

But Qiao An turned and entered the nearby noodle restaurant.

Li Xiaoran was dumbfounded. “An’an, we can eat something good.”

Qiao An said domineeringly, “Take it or leave it.”

Li Xiaoran tugged at her. “You treat, and I’ll pay. I’ll pay, okay?”

Jo Ann giggled foolishly.

Only then did she enter the Huo family’s hotel with Li Xiaoran.

Li Xiaoran didn’t stand on ceremony and ordered many of Qiao An’s favorite delicacies. Qiao An complained, “It’s such a waste to order so much. We can’t finish it.”

Li Xiaoran said, “I promised you that I would treat you to a good meal after you are discharged.”

Qiao An’s heart warmed inexplicably.
