Chapter 53: Returning Home, Remembering the Past
“Qiao An, if you’re sick, take medicine. Public displays of affection can’t cure your illness.”
Qiao An took a closer look. Although this person’s name was unknown to her, his name was extremely familiar—Thunderbolt Blade?
Who else could it be but Li Xiaoran?
“What’s wrong with me?” she asked suspiciously.
“Silly,” Thunderbolt Blade replied.
Qiao An knew why Li Xiaoran called her stupid. He probably felt that she was failing miserably, but she refused to get up.
But how would he know that she wanted to pave a path for herself?
Thunderbolt Blade started teasing her again. “I heard that you became rich overnight and are already a rich woman on the Capital’s Rich List.” He didn’t forget to send two drooling emojis at the end.
Qiao An felt Li Xiaoran’s deep mockery of her.
Qiao An hooked his finger at him and said, “That’s right. I’m good at making money. Come on, I’ll take you to get rich together.”
Thunderbolt Blade said, “I want to ask, how are you going to make me rich?”
Qiao An thought to herself, Of course I’m returning the shares to you.
However, the content was another matter. “Are you selling yourself? With your looks, the market must be good.”
“Go to hell.” Li Xiaoran was so angry that he sent her a row of axes.
Qiao An was dumbfounded.
She suddenly realized that this guy was a little free today and had time to scroll through his social media account.
Qiao An asked, “Aren’t you busy today?”
Li Xiaoran replied, “On the high-speed train.”
“Where are you going?”
“Zeng City! I’m going to see where my first love lived.”
Qiao An’s phone suddenly slid down…
She remembered that Thunderbolt Blade had told her more than once, “An An, I’ll go to your house to propose marriage after I graduate!”
“My dad will hit you with an ax!” Qiao An joked with him.
“Then I’ll carry two catties of Erguotou and have a few drinks with him. He’ll get excited from drinking and sell his daughter to me cheaply.”
“I’m just afraid that you’ll get drunk first before my father does. When the time comes, I’ll just kick you out.”
“Alright, from today onwards, I’ll start practicing my alcohol tolerance.”
Those beautiful vows were still ringing in her ears, but she and Li Xiaoran had changed.
Qiao An lost the courage to chat with Li Xiaoran.
After Wei Xin’s mother saw Qiao An’s blatant declaration of sovereignty, she snatched the phone from Wei Xin’s hand in frustration and scolded her daughter, “Your man has been snatched away by Qiao An, and you’re still in the mood to play?”
Wei Xin couldn’t be bothered to look up. “I don’t believe that Li Zecheng will reconcile with Qiao An.”
Wei Xin’s mother took out Qiao An’s Moments and handed it to Wei Xin. “Look, Qiao An is showing off her love every day. This means that their relationship has been reconciled. Aren’t you anxious?”
Wei Xin rolled her eyes at her mother and said, “In the past, Brother Zecheng might have gotten back together with her. But now, Brother Zecheng avoids her like the plague.”
Wei Xin’s mother was very curious. “Why?”
Wei Xin paused and said, “A few days ago, Qiao An found an AIDS woman to harm him. Brother Zecheng was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. At that time, he made up his mind to divorce Qiao An.”
Wei Xin’s mother thought for a moment and nodded. “That’s true. Qiao An is so scheming and terrifying. Young Master Li finally recognized her true colors.”
Wei Xin smiled proudly and said, “That’s why we should just quietly watch her sing alone.”
However, Wei Xin’s self-deception quickly disappeared.
That day, Li Zecheng came to Wei Xin’s house for the first time. He said with an embarrassed expression, “Wei Xin, Qiao An and I have already reconciled. Qiao An quarreled with me every day. She asked me to ask you for the money I spent on you for the past two years. You can just give me a portion symbolically.”
Wei Xin looked at Li Zecheng in disbelief. “Brother Zecheng, you know that I’ve already used up all the money you gave me. How can I return it to you?”
Li Zecheng said, “Go out and raise some funds. We only need a few hundred thousand. Then, pack a few bags and accessories. I’ll take them to report. It’s not a loss to you.”
Wei Xin heaved a sigh of relief. “Yes, yes, yes. I can just return her some.”
She went into the house and took out a few new bags. She handed them to Li Zecheng and said unhappily, “These are my favorite. She got lucky.”
In the evening, Li Zecheng entered the house happily with a few new branded bags.
“An An, look what I brought back for you.”
Qiao An stood at the staircase on the second floor and looked down at Li Zecheng. Because of the distance, she thought that Li Zecheng was holding a new bag.
She grinned and said, “You bought it for me?” This was the first time Li Zecheng had been so generous to her!
An embarrassed look flashed across Li Zecheng’s face. “These are all… from Wei Xin.”
Qiao An’s smile froze. “I knew it. Why would you suddenly be so generous to me? So I misunderstood.”
Li Zecheng’s face turned red from Qiao An’s teasing. However, he could not hide his joy and said, “Honey, these bags are new. Wei Xin hasn’t used them yet. They suit you quite well.”
Qiao An leaned against the armrest and slowly descended the stairs.
She walked up to Li Zecheng and didn’t look at the bags. She said coldly, “Who in the capital doesn’t know that I, Qiao An’s mother, am a tycoon in the capital because of my son? What makes you think I’ll use something that a bitch doesn’t want?”
Li Zecheng opened his mouth, wanting to quibble, but felt powerless.
It was indeed his negligence. In the past, Qiao An would be happy for a few days when she received his small gifts, so he mistakenly believed that she would be so happy when she received so many branded bags at once.
Unexpectedly, Qiao An didn’t even look at them.
“Then what gift do you like? Hubby will buy it for you again.” Li Zecheng swallowed.
Now, he could only spend money to avoid disaster.
Qiao An’s eyes were filled with a sly smile. She knew that Li Zecheng’s income had plummeted after being removed from the board of directors, and his previous savings had been used to buy a house for Wei Xin. Now, he was caught between the eyebrows.
“I want a Starry Sky version of Phantom.”
“I want Love Only’s latest diamond necklace.”
Li Zecheng broke out in a cold sweat when he heard the word “Phantom”. That was a luxury car worth tens of millions.
And the diamond necklace from the Love Only Carefree series was worth hundreds of millions.
Seeing that he was in a difficult position, Qiao An said proudly, “Hubby, you know that I’m worth tens of billions now. Only a car worth tens of millions is worthy of my status.”
Li Zecheng looked very embarrassed because his car was only a Ferrari worth millions.
Qiao An had obtained 5% of his grandfather’s shares, and her value had soared. This made Li Zecheng feel very inferior.
He had once been arrogant in front of her, but now, he was the most obedient.
“An An, you know that I’m short on money recently,” Li Zecheng said in embarrassment.
Qiao An deliberately flew into a rage. She threw all the bags in Li Zecheng’s hand to the ground and used the topic to make a fuss. “Li Zecheng, I’m your wife, but you’ve never spent money on me. This is the first time I’ve asked you for a valuable gift, and you’ve been making excuses. Look at you. You bought Wei Xin a bag, a car, and a mansion, but you didn’t even frown. Why? Is your wife’s status inferior to yours?”
