Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce

Chapter 127 - Grandpa’s Support, Xiao Ran’s Counterattack

Chapter 127: Grandpa’s Support, Xiao Ran’s Counterattack

Qiao An’s heart inexplicably ached for Li Xiaoran. However, she was a calm and rational girl. Li Xiaoran had lost his morals after drinking. This was an unforgivable mistake on his part, so he should be punished.

To give a pious apology for such a mistake was hardly enough.

They were not children and everyone was responsible for their actions.

That day, Qiao An saw Huo Zhou as she wished.

Huo Zhou’s attitude towards her was neither cold nor warm, while Li Xiaoran’s face was pale and silent the entire time. The atmosphere was cold.

However, in the end, Huo Zhou still reluctantly agreed to Hai Yue’s interview for Li Xiaoran’s sake. However, he put forward a condition: the interview manuscript would be written by his secretary.

Qiao An could only reluctantly agree.

When the meeting ended, Li Xiaoran stood up trembling and said weakly, “An’an, I’ll send you off.”

Huo Zhou held Li Xiaoran’s hand and stopped him sternly. “Xiaoran, you don’t look good. Don’t drive. I’ll get my driver to send Miss Qiao home.”

Li Xiaoran nodded in agreement.

After Qiao An left, Huo Zhou’s handsome face darkened. He said coldly, “I think Qiao An is very distant with you, but you’re in a hurry to help her manage her future. Is it worth it?”

Li Xiaoran’s clenched fists trembled slightly, and Huo Zhou’s eagle eyes narrowed. He was sure that Qiao An had affected Li Xiaoran’s mood.

“Huo Zhou, An’an is pregnant with my child.” Li Xiaoran’s voice was trembling.

......

Huo Zhou was dumbfounded.

“What did you say?”

Li Xiaoran said, “Three months ago, I went back to the Li family and drank with Li Zecheng. You know that I’m not a good drinker. That night, I took advantage of Qiao An.”

A guilty expression appeared on Li Xiaoran’s face.

Huo Zhou immediately understood Qiao An’s coldness and alienation. He sighed and said, “Qiao An is a married woman. You also said that she was born into a scholarly family and values etiquette and integrity the most. She had an affair with her uncle. She definitely won’t blow up such a scandal.”

Li Xiaoran pulled his hair in pain. “Yes, she must have had a hard time during this period. I’m the only person in the Li family who treats her well, but she doesn’t dare to get close to me. This must be the reason. I still blamed her for being heartless, but now I know that she’s protecting me.”

Huo Zhou thought for a moment, his foxy eyes bright. “Since you and her are in love, you have to think of a way for her to divorce Li Zecheng first?”

Li Xiaoran looked at Huo Zhou in confusion.

Huo Zhou smiled and said, “I have to create countless scandals for your nephew and make her completely disappointed in him before divorcing him. When she recovers her freedom, you can buy her bags, jewelry, and a house… I think it won’t be long before she’s moved by your money…”

Li Xiaoran glared at him.

Huo Zhou quickly changed his words. “She would be moved by your sincerity. With your looks, talent, and wealth, it’s a matter of minutes for you to win the beauty’s heart.”

Li Xiaoran looked depressed. “Huo Zhou, you don’t understand Qiao An. That girl is clear about right and wrong. She knows my mistakes. I’m afraid she won’t forgive me for the rest of her life.”

Huo Zhou had more or less heard about Qiao An and Li Zecheng. Li Zecheng had saved another woman on the ruined rooftop, and Qiao An had chosen to commit suicide. He knew how stubborn Qiao An was.

Huo Zhou looked at the dispirited Li Xiaoran and gently patted his shoulder. “Xiaoran, why don’t you give up on her!”

Li Xiaoran shook his head violently and stood up shakily. “I won’t give up on Qiao An. Qiao An hates me, so I should love her and protect her. I’ll spend the rest of my life apologizing.”

Huo Zhou’s eyes darkened as his fingers gently tapped the table. In the end, he seemed to have made up his mind. He looked at Li Xiaoran cleverly and said, “Xiaoran, once Qiao An and you are exposed, you will be a destructive blow to her. Have you thought about how you can protect her?”

Li Xiaoran looked at Huo Zhou faintly. He seemed to be enlightened and smiled calmly. “Tell Grandpa that I’ll work at the Huo Corporation tomorrow.”

Huo Zhou smiled smugly.

Li Xiaoran suddenly leaned down and laid his hands in front of Huo Zhou. He stared into Huo Zhou’s eyes and said firmly, “Tell him that I’m applying as the founder of the Angel Group.”

The terrifying aura Li Xiaoran exuded at that moment shocked even Huo Zhou, a man who had been in a high position for a long time.

Li Xiaoran had an innocent smile and childish innocence, but he also had the ruthlessness of a demon. He was a combination of an angel and a devil.

“Okay,” Huo Zhou said.

Huo Zhou stood up and comforted Li Xiaoran, “Rest well. I’ll go see Grandpa now.”

At the Huo Corporation, in the chairman’s office, the assistant reported respectfully to Old Master Huo, “Chairman, the CEO wants to see you.”

Old Master Huo liked children and grandchildren. As long as he saw his children, his cold expression would melt.

“Call him in quickly,” he said with a smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Zhou walked in elegantly.

“Zhouzhou, aren’t you very busy these few days? Why are you free to come here?”

Huo Zhou sat opposite Old Master Huo and said leisurely, “Chairman, I want to recommend you a talented young talent. I think he can be the CEO of the Huo Group or even higher.”

Old Master Huo pursed his lips. “Our Huo Corporation doesn’t lack young talents. Tell me, who is it? Do you think so highly of him?”

“The founder of the Angel Group.”

Master Huo’s hand that was holding the teacup froze, and his cold face instantly smiled. “Has Xiaoran really agreed to enter the Huo Corporation? Hehe, you’re really capable. You actually successfully convinced him.”

Huo Zhou did not dare to take credit. “Grandpa, I don’t have the ability to trick Xiaoran into our company.”

“Oh? Then how did he change his mind?” the old man asked curiously.

“It’s Qiao An,” Huo Zhou said.

The old man was dumbfounded. “Where did Qiao An come from? She actually bewitched Xiaoran until his soul was reversed.”

“It’s a long story about them.”

Huo Zhou suddenly said mysteriously, “Grandpa, you’re about to have a great-grandson.”

Old Master Huo widened his eyes in shock.

“When did you get married?”

Huo Zhou shook his head. “It wasn’t me.”

“Xiaoran, when did he get married?” Old Master Huo asked excitedly.

“An illegitimate child.”

Old Master Huo was dumbfounded.

“Whose child is it?” After a long time, Old Master Huo convinced himself to accept this not-so-good thing.

“Xiaoran’s.”

Old Master Huo glared at him…

Huo Zhou could only answer honestly, “Qiao An’s.”
