Chapter 213: Meeting a Love Rival

Qiao An’s beautiful eyes were filled with crystal tears, making her look so sentimental. Huo Xiaoran’s sharpness instantly disappeared.

He blamed himself. Why had he forced Qiao An into this?

Qiao An opened her mouth to explain, but Huo Xiaoran turned around in frustration.

Qiao An forced her gaze away from him and said to Xiao Yue, “Xiao Yue, I wish to talk to you alone.” With that, she walked into the tea bar.

Xiao Yue stuck out her tongue at Huo Xiaoran and Huo Zhou and said proudly, “Qiao An wants to see me alone. Wait for me outside.”

With that, she quickly followed Qiao An in.

Huo Zhou and Huo Xiaoran were not to be manipulated. How could they be willing to wait outside? They also asked for an elegant single room and went in to drink tea.

When Xiao Yue entered the private room, she saw Qiao An crying silently. Seeing Xiao Yue enter, Qiao An quickly raised her hand to wipe her tears.

Xiao Yue stood there in embarrassment and comforted Qiao An helplessly. “Qiao An, actually, everyone makes mistakes. Cousin Xiaoran won’t hold on to your past mistakes. He’s not such a narrow-minded person.”

Qiao An didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “You also think I abandoned him back then because I despised him?”

Xiao Yue smiled innocently and said, “Qiao An, I don’t know how to lie. I just feel that my cousin Xiaoran is so outstanding. His only flaw is that he didn’t gain power a few years ago… Isn’t the reason why you don’t want him because he’s poor?”

Qiao An’s tears began to flow harder. “I can’t explain it,” she stammered through her sobs.

Xiao Yue carefully sat opposite Qiao An. Seeing Qiao An’s teary appearance, she secretly criticized her in her heart. Indeed, fairies were rare porcelain and were easily broken.

“Qiao An, if you continue crying, we won’t be able to talk about things.”

“I’m sorry,” Qiao An said, embarrassed.

Actually, she had always been strong-willed and never showed weakness in front of others. However, Huo Xiaoran’s accusation today made her feel extremely aggrieved.

She hadn’t complained that he hadn’t protected her well by leaking the chat records back then. Instead, he’d accused her of despising the poor and favoring the rich.

Xiao Yue looked at her quietly and watched as Qiao An forced herself to calm down. Then, she started talking to her as if nothing had happened.

“Do you really like Blackie, Yueyue?” she asked.

Xiao Yue said angrily and sadly, “I pursued him for two years and dated him for two years. After spending four years together, I actually didn’t know that he had a wife and daughter. Qiao An, don’t worry. No matter how much I love him, this has violated my moral code. I definitely won’t pester him.”

Qiao An said, “He’s not two-timing you, Yueyue.”

Xiao Yue’s eyes were filled with confusion.

“But he’s obviously your husband? He’s dating me behind your back. If that’s not two-timing, what is?”

Qiao An looked steadily into Xiao Yue’s eyes. Her gaze was clean and pure. One could tell that she was an innocent girl. For some reason, Qiao An trusted her.

“What I’m about to tell you is private, Yueyue. Can you keep a secret?”

Xiao Yue immediately raised her hand and swore. “Qiao An, don’t worry. I won’t breathe a word to a third person. If I break this oath, I won’t have true love in my life.”

Qiao An nodded and told her about her relationship with Qiao He. “Yueyue, actually, Blackie isn’t my husband. I’m not married to him at all. His true identity is my cousin.”

After Xiao Yue was shocked, she seemed to have woken up from a dream. “That’s right, Blackie’s real name is Qiao He. Your surnames are all Qiao. Why didn’t I think of this?”

Then, Xiao Yue widened her eyes in confusion. “Then why did you join forces to deceive us?”

Qiao An laughed bitterly. “I’m sorry, Yueyue. I have my reasons. But I’ll tell you when the time comes.”

Realizing she was invading Qiao An’s privacy, Xiao Yue covered her mouth and said guiltily, “Sister Qiao An, I’m sorry.”

Qiao An felt relieved. “Yueyue, you know the truth now. If you still love my cousin, then don’t worry and go after him. Although our Qiao family’s children aren’t golden fans, they’re all scholarly. We’ll definitely abide by morals.”

The gloom in Xiao Yue’s heart was swept away. Her gloomy expression instantly brightened.

“Sister Qiao An, thank you for resolving the misunderstanding for Blackie. You don’t know that I’ve been living a life worse than death recently. Now that I know that he and you are siblings, my heart instantly feels better.”

Qiao An was filled with emotion. “Because I know the pain of not being able to love. That’s why I can’t bear to see you and Qiao He live my life.”

Xiao Yue was stunned.

She could see in Qiao An’s sad, dazed eyes the hardships she’d endured.

After Qiao An and Xiao Yue resolved the misunderstanding, they talked about the follow-up work. Because Xiao Yue admired Qiao An very much, she approved of Qiao An’s work.

The two of them chatted happily.

Huo Zhou and Huo Xiaoran, who were next door, began to worry for Qiao An and Xiao Yue.

Huo Zhou speculated, “Xiaoran, do you think they’ll quarrel?”

Huo Xiaoran analyzed calmly, “If they argue, Xiao Yue is knight, and Qiao An is a king. If Xiao Yue overestimated herself and angered Qiao An, she would be pressed to the ground by Qiao An and doubt her life.”

Huo Zhou rolled his eyes at him. “Why do I feel that you’re biased towards Qiao An? Hasn’t her sharp tongue bitten you hard enough?”

Huo Xiaoran said suddenly, “When has she ever been polite to me?”

Huo Zhou seemed to have discovered a new continent and said in high spirits, “Xiaoran, speaking of which, Qiao An didn’t scold you today. You made her cry with just a few words.”

Huo Xiaoran’s hand that was holding the teacup froze slightly as he carefully recalled his interaction with Qiao An.

For the first time, Qiao An didn’t bare her fangs and snarl at him.

Huo Xiaoran looked confused. “Has she changed?”

Huo Zhou looked at his watch and said anxiously, “These two women have been talking secretly for two hours. They’re love rivals. When love rivals meet, their eyes are especially red. I keep feeling that something is wrong. Xiaoran, do you want to take a look?”

Huo Xiaoran placed the teacup on the table. “Let’s go.”

The two of them had just reached the door when they saw Xiao Yue walking over excitedly.

Huo Zhou and Huo Xiaoran looked at each other.

This scene was not what they had imagined.

“Cousin.” Xiao Yue ran over.

Huo Xiaoran looked at the long corridor and wondered why Qiao An and Angel didn’t come out.

“Where’s Qiao An?”

Xiao Yue explained, “Qiao An said she still wants to stay.”
