Angel did not cry or make a fuss in Huo Xiaoran’s arms. She even hugged his neck intimately and leaned her head on his broad shoulders, looking like she enjoyed being carried by Huo Xiaoran.

As for Huo Xiaoran, he was even more energetic. He hugged Angel with one hand and fed her snacks with the other.

At that moment, Qiao An’s eyes moistened. Steadying herself, she started toward them.

Xiao Yue was shocked to see Qiao An.

Although Qiao An wasn’t wearing luxury clothes, she exuded the aura of a princess.

“Are you Director Xiao Yue?”

Qiao An took the initiative to hug Xiao Yue.

Xiao Yue was dumbfounded. She had thought that Qiao An, who looked like an otherworldly fairy, was very cold. She did not expect her to be so amiable.

“Qiao An, I’m so happy to see you.”

It was their first time meeting, but they were especially affectionate.

Huo Xiaoran was shocked. “Yueyue, she’s your boyfriend’s wife.”

Xiao Yue and Qiao An’s faces instantly froze.

One moment they were idol and fan, moving towards a working partnership. The next they were love rivals.

Xiao Yue’s eyes were still red. She said to Qiao An very frankly, “Qiao An, although you’re my idol and I like you very much, love has to be based on first come, first served. Since we both like Blackie, let’s cut to the chase. Whoever is the third party will automatically withdraw?”

Qiao An smiled faintly. She really liked Xiao Yue’s flexible personality.

Xiao Yue continued, “I’ve known Blackie for five years and been in love for two years. What about you?”

Huo Xiaoran stared at Qiao An with anticipation in his eyes. He also wanted to know when Qiao An and that third-rate actor got together.

Qiao An sighed helplessly. There was no love between her and Qiao He. All the encounters, marriage, and children were just a show to deal with the outside world.

Qiao An calculated the time. “Actually, he and I were forced to get married in a flash three years ago when we were drunk.”

Xiao Yue was in a difficult position. “Did you force a marriage?”

Qiao An broke out in a sweat.

“I guess.”

Xiao Yue said in enlightenment, “No wonder he’s been distracted even when he’s been by my side for the past two years. It turns out that he already has another family.”

Qiao An murmured, “He doesn’t actually love me. We’re sort of a marriage of convenience.”

Huo Xiaoran suddenly interrupted, “There are so many men in the world. Do you have to suffer like this? He never came to see you when you were sick. Why don’t you hire a nurse instead of marrying such a man?”

Qiao An wanted to protect Qiao He’s good image in Xiao Yue’s heart. She kept speaking up for Qiao He. “My husband is actually a very responsible man. When I was sick, he was also very concerned about me. But there’s a cute baby to take care of at home, and he doesn’t have time. This is a difficulty that many families with children have to face.”

At the mention of children, Huo Xiaoran walked up to Qiao An and asked her gently, “Do you know her?”

Qiao An winked at her playfully.

Angel immediately called out cutely, “Sister.”

Then, she left Huo Xiaoran’s arms and pounced into Qiao An’s arms.

Huo Xiaoran was dumbfounded. “She called you sister?”

Qiao An explained, “This is my uncle’s daughter. He went overseas on business and entrusted me to take care of her for a while.”

Huo Zhou exclaimed, “No wonder you two look quite alike.”

Qiao An secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Xiao Yue looked around and asked angrily, “Where’s Blackie?”

Qiao An said, “He left.”

Xiao Yue said angrily, “This coward. He’s always a coward. When I catch him that day, I’ll definitely castrate him.”

Qiao An was speechless.

Huo Zhou hated a scumbag like Qiao He very much. When he heard Xiao Yue’s words, he immediately gloated. “There’s no need to wait. I can send someone to catch him today.”

Qiao An tactfully reminded Huo Zhou, “Young Master Huo, this is between me and Xiao Yue. We’ll settle it ourselves.”

Huo Zhou said, “You still don’t know, right? Xiao Yue is my cousin. It’s my duty to stand up for my cousin.”

Qiao An was speechless.

“So how do you want to punish him?” Qiao An asked timidly.

Huo Zhou said, “A two-timing man like him has to lose a leg. Why don’t you choose which leg to cripple?”

Qiao An swallowed. “Can I have toes?”

Xiaoran could not help but laugh.

This was the Qiao An he remembered, lively and mischievous.

“You really know how to defend him.” Huo Zhou was speechless.

Qiao An couldn’t let Huo Zhou hurt Qiao He. She warned Huo Zhou solemnly, “Young Master Huo, I won’t allow you to hurt him.”

Huo Zhou glanced at Huo Xiaoran.

Huo Xiaoran said coldly, “That scumbag treated you so coldly and even cheated on you. Are you keeping him for the new year? Where is the pride with which you tore Li Zecheng apart?”

Qiao An murmured, “He’s the father of my child.”

Huo Xiaoran was dumbfounded.

Qiao An, who had become a mother, had become sensitive. And this reverse scale was something he dared not touch.

“What if Huo Zhuo insists on standing up for Xiao Yue?” Huo Xiaoran said.

Qiao An looked at him steadily. “Then I’ll make Dr. Lu’s life uneasy.”

Huo Xiaoran narrowed his eyes. He knew that Qiao An was mischievous, but she was also kind.

Such tricks of using cancer patients didn’t seem like something she could do. How cold-hearted would she have to be to do such a wicked thing?

“Qiao An, you’ve changed,” Huo Xiaoran sighed.

Qiao An smiled bitterly.

How had she changed?

The heart that loved him remained unchanged.

The promise to him remained unchanged.

The principle of doing good by others remained unchanged.

It was just that she had learned to protect herself from the thorns around her.

Xiao Yue looked at Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An suspiciously and secretly asked Huo Zhou, “Zhou Zhou, do they know each other?”

Huo Zhou said, “Qiao An is Xiaoran’s ex-girlfriend.”

Xiao Yue’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Oh my god.”

Xiao Yue sighed. “They’re so compatible. Why did they break up? What a pity.”

When Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran heard Xiao Yue’s sigh, their eyes were filled with resentment.

Huo Xiaoran replied to Xiao Yue, “I can’t give her the golden life she wants.”

Qiao An said, “You shouldn’t comment without knowing the whole picture.”

Huo Xiaoran was slightly stunned. “Isn’t that so?”

Huo Xiaoran would never forget that when Qiao An and Li Zecheng got married, he begged her to elope with him. But Qiao An personally said that he was trash…”

Qiao An’s eyes were red. She had recognized the wrong person at that time and mistaken Li Zecheng for him. She trusted Li Zecheng. Li Zecheng said that her uncle had lost his morals, which was why she treated Huo Xiaoran so badly.

Huo Xiaoran gritted his teeth and said, “Qiao An, how dare you say that I’m wrong?”

Qiao An closed her eyes, tears streaming down her face.

“I was wrong.”
