It was not until Angel Qiao gently tugged at his sleeve that Huo Xiaoran suddenly turned around and saw Angel Qiao that the jealousy and redness in his eyes faded.

“Uncle, Mommy’s asleep,” Angel Qiao reminded him.

Huo Xiaoran grinned. “I’ll carry Mommy upstairs to rest. Uncle will come down to accompany you later.”

“Yeah.”

Huo Xiaoran carried Qiao An to the master bedroom upstairs and placed her on the bed. Seeing that she was exhausted and her hair was drenched in sweat, his heart ached.

“An’an, stop fooling around, okay? Give me three days. I’ll be back in three days. From then on, we’ll never be apart.” With that, he kissed her gently on the cheek.

In the past, he’d mistakenly thought she was disgusted with him and resistant to his intimacy. That was why he’d always kept her at a distance. Now that he knew she loved him deeply, even suffered to protect him and the child, he couldn’t wait to be by her side, to sleep with her in his arms and kiss her until the end of time.

He looked at Qiao An and couldn’t get tired of her.

However, the children’s voices came from downstairs from time to time. Huo Xiaoran finally stood up and wanted to give her a farewell kiss. He wanted to kiss her cheek, but when he approached her, he changed his mind and his lips landed on her cherry lips.

When he arrived downstairs, Angel Qiao was cowering in the corner, looking at him timidly. Her eyes were as red as a rabbit’s. And under her feet was the broken vase.

“Uncle, I didn’t mean to,” she said sadly.

It was a vase that Huo Xiaoran had carefully chosen. It was a retro style and blue in color. It could only be chanced upon by luck.

However, compared to the broken vase, Huo Xiaoran could not bear to see Angel Qiao frightened. He walked over and gently picked her up. “It’s fine if the vase is broken. Are you injured?”

Angel Qiao hid her little hands behind her back and quickly shook her head.

She had done something wrong. How could she expect Uncle Huo to sympathize with her?

Joey said, “Uncle, did the sister hurt her finger?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Angel, show Uncle.”

Only then did the angel find the courage to offer her finger. A bloody gash, not deep, but when it happened to cute Angel Qiao, it felt like it couldn’t be trivial.

Huo Xiaoran wiped the blood away with heartache. Then, he carried Angel Qiao to the medical kit and washed her wound, disinfected it, and finally bandaged it with a band-aid.

The whole time, Angel Joe and Joey looked at him in admiration.

Angel Qiao suddenly called out softly, “Daddy.”

Huo Xiaoran’s hand trembled. He looked at Angel in a daze, and at that moment, happiness overflowed from his chest.

“Angel, do you know that I’m Daddy?” Xiaoran’s voice trembled.

Joey nodded. “Yeah. Mommy says you’re Daddy. But Mommy says we can’t address you as Daddy. Because if we do, it’ll cause you a lot of trouble.”

Angel Qiao asked carefully, “Can we secretly call you Daddy?”

Huo Xiaoran said with red eyes, “You don’t have to do that secretly. You can do it openly.”

“Mommy said you’d be attacked and insulted by a lot of people?” Angel Qiao cried.

“Mommy also said that you’re not in good health and might not be able to take the pressure. You might choose to jump off a building to commit suicide…”

Huo Xiaoran was speechless.

So that was what Qiao An thought. So she’d rather face this alone. And let all the wind and rain get around him.

Huo Xiaoran hugged the two children and murmured gently, “Daddy is not as fragile as Mommy said. As long as Mommy doesn’t leave Daddy, Daddy will become an invincible warrior.”

Angel Qiao’s caution immediately faded. She cheered. “Then we can call you Daddy from now on?”

“Yeah.”

That night, it was Huo Xiaoran who served the two cute children. He bathed them and read them bedtime stories until they fell asleep.

The next day, Qiao An awoke after a restful sleep. It was only the soreness of her muscles that made her realize quickly that she was sick.

She looked around and saw the decor of the bedroom. She sat up with a jolt.

She actually fell asleep in Huo Xiaoran’s villa last night?

The scene of her arguing with Huo Xiaoran last night floated in her mind. She remembered that she had humbly told him that she loved him. However, he didn’t seem to respond to her feelings.

He only looked at her with heartache and guilt. His heart ached for her, but since his heart ached for her, why did he insist on marrying Lu Mo?

Yes, he was going to marry Lu Mo.

Qiao An was so battered by the truth that she couldn’t breathe. Then she struggled to her feet and staggered to leave.

She had given Huo Xiaoran a last chance. If he didn’t turn around, then she wouldn’t be around anymore.

So much for their relationship.

She reached the ground floor and called out, “Angel, Joey…”

A maid ran over with the child.

“Miss Qiao, you’re awake? You must be hungry. I’ll prepare breakfast for you immediately.” The servant quickly went into the kitchen.

Qiao An was a little confused. Huo Xiaoran had always been very down-to-earth. Why did he suddenly hire a nanny for her?

She didn’t want to care about what he did either. She took Joey’s and Angel’s hands and said, “Let’s go.”

Angel Qiao and Joey were dragged outside by their mommy.

But outside the door, two bodyguards stopped her. “Miss Qiao, I’m sorry, you can’t leave here for the time being.”

Qiao An was stunned. “What do you mean? Is Huo Xiaoran imprisoning me?”

The bodyguard looked troubled. “President Huo is asking Miss Qiao to stay here for a few more days.”

Qiao An turned back angrily. She picked up her phone and called Huo Xiaoran.

She thought that Huo Xiaoran would not answer her call, but to her surprise, he picked up immediately. “An’an, did you sleep well last night?”

Qiao An’s eyes were red as she said angrily, “Huo Xiaoran, how dare you imprison me?”

Huo Xiaoran said with a cheeky smile, “Baby, don’t be angry. I’ll explain to you when I get back tonight. That’s all. I still have something to do.”

Then, Huo Xiaoran hung up the phone.

Annoyed, Qiao An slammed the phone to the floor.

When the maid brought out the sumptuous breakfast, Qiao An was very angry and said, “I’m not eating.”

The servant was helpless and persuaded, “Miss An’an, please eat some. If you don’t eat breakfast, the president will definitely punish me. My father is sick and needs money urgently. I need this job.”

Qiao An stared at her. Intuition told her she was acting. And the script had been provided by Huo Xiaoran. But she had no evidence.

Qiao An said, “Give me your account details and I’ll transfer the money to you.”

The maid was too stunned to speak.

“Miss An’an, my father needs a few million for a kidney transplant. Even if you give it to me, I won’t dare to take it. How can I afford it in this lifetime?”

“If what you say is true, you don’t have to pay it back.”
