“I’d recognize him even if he turned to dust,” Qiao An said through gritted teeth.
She looked up at Huo Xiaoran again and stared into his eyes without blinking, as if she wanted to see through his handsome and charming eyes to ascertain the mastermind behind the car accident three years ago.
“Do you know him?” Her tone was cool, but it couldn’t hide the inexplicable anticipation and tension in her pupils.
Huo Xiaoran frowned slightly and looked at Qiao An in confusion. “Should I know him?”
Qiao An’s tightly clenched fists quietly relaxed.
She smiled with relief. “He has some history with you.”
Huo Xiaoran was even more surprised. “Oh? Tell me about it.”
Qiao An gritted her teeth and said in a low voice, “He was your mother-in-law’s driver previously.”
Huo Xiaoran didn’t like Qiao An associating him with the Lu family.
After hearing that this driver was once Mrs. Lu’s driver, Huo Xiaoran’s expression turned sinister and terrifying. At that moment, he had the terrifying thought of subverting the Lu family.
“Who ordered you to hurt Qiao An?” He walked up to the middle-aged man and swung a fist at his head.
“Is it Fang Aiyuan?” he asked angrily.
The middle-aged man knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Huo Xiaoran. “President Huo, this has nothing to do with the Lu family.”
“Who else could it be but the Lu family?” Huo Xiaoran roared.
“I did it alone.”
The man crawled to Qiao An on his knees and defended himself to Qiao An, who looked soft and cute. “Miss Qiao An, I didn’t mean to harm you. I just wanted to make an example of you and scare you. Otherwise, this chandelier will fall on you.”
Huo Xiaoran kicked him in the heart. He was like a crazy lion, and his ruthlessness made people shudder.
“What right do you have to scare her?”
“President Huo, do you know how sad Miss Lu Mo is for you to protect Qiao An like this? I’m the driver of the Lu family. I watched Miss Lu Mo grow up. She was once such a sunny girl, but ever since she fell in love with you, she’s never been happy again.”
“She’s depressed all day, even sick from depression. She even has breast cancer. My heart aches for my lady, so I secretly made up my mind to warn Qiao An to stay away from you. That way, my lady will be much happier.”
The man had blamed Lu Mo’s illness on Qiao An, making Qiao An feel guilty. At that time, her mind was racing with self-reproach and she was in a daze. Thus, she ignored many details.
For now, she was only concerned with one question. “You were the one who ran me down three years ago, weren’t you?”
“I’m sorry, Miss Qiao An. I never wanted to take your life. The accident was an accident. I just wanted to warn you. Please believe me. You have to pay for murder. I don’t have the guts to kill you.”
“Minor injuries?” Qiao An was stunned by his choice of words.
Perhaps to ordinary people, that injury was indeed not enough to threaten their lives, but she was pregnant. She was injured and could not use anesthesia. She endured the pain and when going through suture. The process was like experiencing life and death.
“Miss Qiao An. Please forgive me. I won’t disturb you again.” The man’s head hit the ground heavily. Soon, his forehead was a bloody mess.
Qiao An looked at her coldly.
She could not forgive him.
Because the car accident three years ago had hurt her to the bone and even made her misunderstand Huo Xiaoran for three years. In these three years, she was really heartbroken.
At this moment, Huo Zhou asked Huo Xiaoran softly, “Xiaoran, how are you going to punish him?”
Huo Xiaoran was decisive in the business world and had long cultivated a cold and hard heart.
He wasn’t softened by the man’s accusations. He was just endlessly angry. Angry that he’d hurt the woman he loved most.
Huo Xiaoran said, “If he doesn’t die, it’ll be difficult for me to vent my anger.”
The man looked terrified. “President Huo, I’m Miss Momo’s godfather. Our relationship is not biological. If anything happens to me, Momo will be sad… Please forgive me this time.”
Huo Xiaoran said sinisterly, “But why should I base Lu Mo’s happiness on Qiao An’s pain?”
“President Huo, even if I deserve to die, Lu Mo is sincere to you. Can you bear to see her become haggard because of your decision?”
Huo Xiaoran thought of how Lu Mo had just undergone chemotherapy and how her condition was still very unstable. She needed to maintain a good mood.
He fell into a dilemma.
Qiao An suddenly sneered and teased, “President Huo, you’re so soft-hearted in front of the law. I’m really surprised.”
This voice evoked all of Huo Xiaoran’s shame. He said aggrievedly, “Qiao An, I’m not…”
Qiao An snapped, “This person is coming for me. Should I send him in? It doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you, CEO Huo, right?”
Huo Xiaoran said, “As you wish.”
Just like that, the man was sent to the police station. Qiao An and a few witnesses took statements before leaving.
When Lu Mo found out that her beloved chauffeur had been exposed and sent to the police station by Huo Xiaoran, she was so angry that she shattered a set of porcelain on the coffee table.
Mrs. Lu was so anxious that she paced back and forth in the house. “Your Uncle Li has always been careful. Logically speaking, he should have been able to plot against Qiao An without fail. Why was he caught red-handed?”
“I heard that Qiao An has an extraordinary bodyguard. When did she start to suspect? This little girl is getting harder and harder to deal with.”
Lu Mo suddenly thought of something. She suddenly ran upstairs and took out the bag Qiao An had given her. She checked it carefully and finally found something.
“Alright, Qiao An, you actually used illegal means to spy on me?” Lu Mo smashed the pinhole camera to the ground in exasperation. She stepped on it a few times to confirm that it had stopped working before stopping.
Mother Lu’s eyes lit up. “The heavens are on my side. I was just worried that I wouldn’t be able to get your uncle out. Now, Qiao An has automatically given us something to use. With it, we can negotiate with her.”
At this moment, Lu Mo was not in the mood to deal with Qiao An. Instead, she said worriedly, “Aiya, Mom, now is not the time for us to deal with Qiao An. We have to think of a way to get Uncle Li out. If he accidentally betrays us, we’ll be finished.”
Mrs. Lu was not worried about this at all. “Don’t worry, your Uncle Li won’t expose you.”
Lu Mo said, “In any case, I won’t feel at ease if he stays inside.”
Mrs. Lu picked up the pinhole camera and said, “Follow me to the police station.”
