Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce

Chapter 378 - 378 Xiao Ran’s Grudge

378 Xiao Ran’s Grudge

Old Madam Huo immediately reprimanded Huo Xiaoran, “Xiaoran, how dare you be so rude to Auntie?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “She was disrespectful to my An’an first.”

Qiao An looked terrible too. More accurately, she looked very embarrassed. But she tried to endure it.

She secretly thought, My grievances are really nothing compared to the humiliation of Xiao Ming brother and Sister Qianqian.

Huo Xiaoran glared fiercely at the culprit, Huo Zhou, then pulled Qiao An away. “An’an, let’s go.”

After Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran left, the atmosphere in the hall instantly became a little awkward. Qianqian’s mother probably didn’t expect that her mocking of Qiao An would arouse Huo Xiaoran’s anger. As for Huo Xiaoran, he looked like a gentle boy but had thrown etiquette to the back of his mind for Qiao An. He left with Qiao An just like that.

She glanced at Old Madam Huo in shame. Old Madam Huo might not treat her granddaughter-in-law, Qiao An well, as an outsider, but she must love her grandson.

After she angered Huo Xiaoran away, Old Madam Huo’s expression turned ugly.

Old Master Huo doted on his grandson. He stood up and hurriedly bade farewell to the Xiao family’s master with a cold expression. “I still have something on. I’ll leave first. You guys take your time to chat.”

Old Madam Huo quickly ran after him. The originally lively family gathering parted on bad terms.

Qianqian’s father condemned his wife. “Look at what you’re saying. No matter what Qiao An did in the past, she’s Xiaoran’s lover now. She gave birth to Xiaoran’s children. You have to give her the dignity of Madam Huo. But you offended the entire Huo family with just a few words.”

Qianqian’s mother did not expect Huo Xiaoran to protect Qiao An to this extent, nor did she expect Old Master Huo to dote on Huo Xiaoran so much. She had opened a gap in the butterfly effect and implicated a large family.

She said guiltily, “I was just talking. I don’t really look down on her.”

Old Master Xiao comforted her kindly. “Qianqian’s mother, don’t blame yourself. I’ve dealt with that Qiao An before. She’s deep-hearted and not as innocent as she looks. You’re just telling the truth. I don’t blame you.”

Only then did Qianqian’s mother feel relieved.

Unexpectedly, Old Madam Xiao was angry and reprimanded her husband fiercely. “If you don’t like Xiaoran and Qiao An, why did you ask the servants to invite them over? If they come over, you’ll put on a cold face. They’re also dragons and phoenixes among men. How can they tolerate you? You’re clearly looking down on the younger generation, but you’ve hurt my sister and brother-in-law’s heart. Is the relationship between our Xiao and Huo families going to be broken?”

When Old Master Xiao was young, he had served the country and the people, but he owed his wife a lot. He was very strict in front of outsiders, but he had no backbone in front of his wife.

He immediately apologized with a smile. “Madam, calm down. I know I didn’t do it well. I’ll apologize to Brother-in-law next time.”

Only then did Old Madam Xiao give up. This was because the conflict between the Xiao family and the Huo family was neither big nor small. However, the three of them were flustered.

Among them, Huo Zhou was the most uncomfortable. Because he was the one who caused the trouble. In order to repair the estrangement in everyone’s hearts, Huo Zhou decided to talk to Huo Xiaoran.

However, Huo Xiaoran held a grudge and did not see him for a few days.

Old Madam Huo wanted to see a few cute grandchildren, but Huo Xiaoran did not give her a chance. He hired a nanny and bodyguards for the children. He would pick the child up himself these few days. If he was too busy, there would naturally be bodyguards and drivers to pick the child up.

Old Madam Huo felt uneasy when she saw Xiaoran make such a big scene.

She asked the old man for help. “Old Master, do you think Xiaoran has a problem with me?”

Old Master Huo said, “It’s not like you don’t know how much Xiaoran treasures Qiao An. How can Xiaoran not be angry that Qianqian’s mother humiliated Qiao An like this? Not only did you not help Xiaoran, but you even blamed Xiaoran. Xiaoran and Qiao An came to visit and didn’t do anything, but they ended up being abandoned by everyone. You’ve disappointed Xiaoran.”

The old madam sighed. “Sigh, I just respect the Xiao and Lu families for being heroic families.”

The old man said, “Sigh, they’re all good men with iron hearts. I respect them for that. But Qianqian’s mother loves her daughter so much that she’s indeed a little harsh with her words…”

He gathered all his dissatisfaction in a sigh.

Old Madam Huo said anxiously, “Hubby, do you think Xiaoran will sever his ties with me just because he has something against me like his mother?”

Old Master Huo stopped what he was doing.

He also became anxious. “Aiya, Xiaoran’s personality is really similar to his mother’s. Back then, Ping’er ran away from home after arguing with you and didn’t return until she died. When it comes to Xiaoran, don’t…”

The old man couldn’t continue. He picked up his coat from the sofa and walked out. “I have to find Xiaoran and resolve the knot in his heart. Otherwise, he’ll be estranged from us.”

The old lady sat on the sofa uneasily. At this moment, she wished she could cut off her tongue.

When Old Master Huo went to Xiaoran’s courtyard, he bumped into Huo Zhou.

“Zhou Zhou. Where are you going?”

Huo Zhou looked dejected. “Grandpa, Xiaoran has been angry with me recently. He won’t see me no matter what. I feel terrible.”

“I shouldn’t have leaked Qiao An’s unusual relationship with Xiao Ming.”

Old Master Huo patted his back and said leisurely, “You, you treat Xiaoran as a biological brother, but you don’t understand that husband and wife are of the same root. Xiaoran and Qiao An are joined at the hip. By damaging Qiao An’s reputation, you’ve naturally hurt Xiaoran.”

“Grandpa, I understand.”

Old Master Huo said, “Let’s go and see them.”

When they arrived at Huo Xiaoran’s house, they realized that Huo Xiaoran’s door lock had changed. His defense was many levels higher.

Moreover, there were a few valiant bodyguards standing at the door. They looked around warily.

When Huo Zhou saw this, he immediately lowered his head.

“It’s over, it’s over. It’s obvious that Xiaoran wants to sever ties with us.”

Old Master Huo’s mood was solemn. “Let’s go take a look.”

When they arrived at the door, the bodyguard told them, “I’m very sorry, CEO Huo hasn’t been receiving visitors recently.”

Huo Zhou said impatiently, “Go and tell him that Grandpa specially came to visit him. How can he reject Grandpa?”

The bodyguard didn’t move.

“I’m sorry. Please go back.”

Huo Zhou was furious and shouted, “Huo Xiaoran, do you have to be so petty? I admit that I did something wrong, but I also apologized to you. Do you have to hold a grudge for so long?”
