Huo Xiaoran was speechless.
Security? He knew that probably meant more to Qiao An than worldly fame and fortune.
He was suddenly terrified that he would lose Qiao An again.
“So, you’re serious? You want to keep seeing him?” he asked with a dark expression.
Qiao An whispered, “Why not?” She secretly glanced at Huo Xiaoran from the corner of her eye. Seeing his expressionless face, she felt a sense of loss.
So it was true that he and Lu Mo were married. Even if he still cared about her, he couldn’t give her happiness, so he had no right to interfere with her feelings.
Qiao An felt a sharp pain in her heart as she understood this.
She stumbled to her feet, took the children’s hands, and hurried away. “I have things to do. Goodbye.”
Xiao Yue quickly chased after her. “Sister Qiao An, wait for me.”
Tears welled in Qiao An’s eyes as she ran out of the bar.
Xiao Yue saw Qiao An’s pained expression and scolded Huo Xiaoran, “My cousin is really too much. Is there water in his brain? He actually didn’t stop you from dating another man. If he gives you to someone else, his intestines will turn green sooner or later.”
Qiao An said nothing but sniffed.
Xiao Yue looked at the two cute children and suddenly had an idea. “Sister Qiao An, I think Cousin seems to like these two children very much. Why don’t you tell him that the children are his flesh and blood? Perhaps he will reconcile with you for the sake of the children.”
Qiao An, however, was extremely resistant. “No.”
She said sadly, “Yueyue, I don’t care about a marriage without affection.” She had learned it the hard way from her failed marriage with Li Zecheng.
Xiao Yue held Qiao An’s hand and realized that her fingertips were cold. Xiao Yue’s heart ached. “Sister Qiao An, I’ll support you in any decision you make.”
She thought for a moment and said, “I was just saying it casually in the heat of the moment. Thinking about it carefully, the child can’t acknowledge my cousin. Because after he married Lu Mo, the child would have a stepmother. A scheming bitch like Lu Mo wouldn’t treat the child well.”
Qiao An shuddered involuntarily.
Xiao Yue’s alarm rang.
She nodded. “You’re right. I guess I’ll have to think about whether or not I want the babies to reunite with their father.”
When the two of them arrived at the parking lot, a figure suddenly darted out. Qiao An and Xiao Yue retreated quickly before they could see who it was.
Li Zecheng was so angry that his veins bulged. He clenched his fists and roared at Qiao An, “How dare you cheat on me, Qiao An.”
Qiao An paled slightly. How did this guy know she’d cuckolded him?
Xiao Yue said in her ear, “Sister Qiao An, I forgot to tell you. This bastard came to look for the child a few days ago and insisted that the child was his biological child. I had no choice but to send him away with Joey’s hair. I believe he did a paternity test…”
Qiao An understood.
She composed herself and stared at Li Zecheng with a stern expression.
“Li Zecheng, how dare you criticize me? After we got married, you and Wei Xin openly cheated on me. When you cheated on me, why didn’t you discuss etiquette with me?”
An unnatural expression flashed across Li Zecheng’s face, but he quickly regained his anger. “Qiao An, I’ve already received my deserved punishment for cheating. What about you? You kept it from me and cuckolded me. I’m not done with you.”
“If you know what’s good for you, hurry up and tell me. Who was that wild man?”
Qiao An slapped him angrily and roared, “Li Zecheng, you disgust me. You think I’m a morally bankrupt person like you and Wei Xin. Let me tell you, when I married you, I did not have feelings for another person. You didn’t cherish our marriage and caused it to collapse.”
Shame flashed across Li Zecheng’s face. He did feel guilty towards Qiao An, but when his gaze landed on the cute child beside Qiao An, he was furious.
“Qiao An, don’t make yourself sound so noble. The evidence is here. You slept with other men and gave birth to a pair of bastards. If you don’t explain this to me, I won’t let this go,” Li Zecheng said fiercely.
Qiao An felt a huge wave of unease.
Li Zecheng was so stubborn. She was afraid that he would really expose her and Huo Xiaoran.
“Li Zecheng, don’t be unreasonable. Let me tell you the truth. The child is a test-tube baby. So I don’t know who the father is,” Qiao An said quickly.
Li Zecheng was dumbfounded.
“Tube baby?”
Xiao Yue took advantage of the situation. “Sister Qiao An gave birth to three children. The children’s fathers are all different.”
“Three different fathers?” Li Zecheng looked surprised.
Xiao Yue nodded. “Yes.”
Li Zecheng withered like a frosted radish. After all, ordinary people definitely couldn’t give birth to triplets, but it was common with IVF.
Xiao Yue teased him instead. “Li Zecheng, it was hard for Sister Qiao An to raise these three children. Since Sister Qiao An did the IVF during your wedding, you’re also the children’s daddy. You should take on the responsibility of raising the children?”
Qiao An answered for him. “Even if he wants to agree, Master Li won’t accept a grandson who’s not related to him by blood.”
Li Zecheng glared at Qiao An angrily. “Qiao An, when you did the IVF, did you think about how I felt? I’m a fucking normal man. I can give you a child if you want one. Why did you do the IVF?”
Qiao An sneered. “Li Zecheng, you should know that I don’t want your child.”
Li Zecheng’s handsome face alternated between green and white. “You’d rather have those wild men than me?”
He found it hard to believe that Qiao An hated him so much.
She used to love him passionately. Now that Qiao An hated him to the core, this huge difference made him find it difficult to accept.
Qiao An said, “Li Zecheng, who do you think you are? You want me to help you give birth? Dream on.”
Li Zecheng was furious.
How gentle gaze with which Qiao An used to look at him was now replaced with hatred. This strong contrast made him especially unhappy.
However, this spunky Qiao An made tempted him. Not only was she beautiful, she was especially confident.
“Get lost,” Qiao An said leisurely.
Li Zecheng left resentfully.
Not far away, Huo Xiaoran and Huo Zhou saw this scene.
Huo Zhou sighed. “Women are really heartless.”
Huo Xiaoran said, “Li Zecheng deserved it.”
Huo Zhou was enlightened. “So Qiao An’s children were conceived through IVF. No wonder the children look so different.”
Huo Xiaoran nodded.
A string in his heart seemed to have broken.
