Chapter 559: Chapter 554: Exposed Tracks
Li Zhao listened to his wife’s question, which was exactly what Xiao Qi had told him, causing him to disappoint his wife. However, he couldn’t lie.
“Yes, that’s right. He said that his eldest brother called him to tell him that his sister-in-law has given birth, and he wants to invite us for a drink. He also said that he will return to the Imperial Capital in a month and asked me to make arrangements. What arrangements will I have to make? If they all come back, I will naturally come back as well. Don’t you think so, An’an?” Li Zhao didn’t want to stay in S Province alone, feeling lonely.
“Hmm, do I need to do anything?” An Hao asked softly.
“Take a look and see if there are any suitable houses. Find one.
Eldest brother probably won’t be returning to the Chu family’s place, and since he hasn’t been in the Imperial Capital for so many years, he will definitely need a place to stay when he comes back.
Also, considering that he will be bringing Qin Xue and their child, they will need a place to live. So, when you go shopping, see if there are any suitable houses for rent or purchase.” Li Zhao thought this was the extent of his help for Chu Molin.
What Li Zhao didn’t know was that Xiao Qi had also arranged for the same thing.
“Alright, I got it. I’ll be able to be with Qin Xue when they come back. Just thinking about it makes me happy.” An Hao got along well with Qin Xue, she was looking forward to spending time with her.
“Okay, thank you, my dear wife.” Li Zhao spoke tenderly to his wife on the phone.
“You too, work hard.” An Hao smiled sweetly.
“An’an, I’ll hang up now. I need to arrange some other things.” Li Zhao reluctantly told his wife.
“Alright, goodbye.” An Hao ended the call, turned around, and was startled. The smile on her face froze.
Luu Xiao’ai, did she hear everything An Hao just said?
“An Hao, the Molin you just mentioned, is it Chu Molin?” Luu Xiao’ai’s sharp eyes were staring at An Hao’s expression.
“Xiao’ai, hear me out.” An Hao wondered how best to approach this topic.
“Just tell me if it is him or not.” Luu Xiao’ai asked excitedly.
“Yes.” An Hao figured that Xiao’ai would find out about it sooner or later anyway, so she might as well be honest.
“So you all knew where Molin was this whole time?” Luu Xiao’ai asked angrily.
“No, I found out later too.” An Hao, seeing the emotional outburst from Luu Xiao’ai, couldn’t help but regret not being more careful.
“When did you find out? Why have you been hiding it from me? You know I’ve been waiting for him all this time.” Luu Xiao’ai cried out.
“What can you do with this information? He won’t come back for you.” An Hao lost her temper too.
“Why wouldn’t he marry me? I’m his fiancée!” Luu Xiao’ai cried.
Upon hearing about Chu Molin, Luu Xiao’ai cried, not out of happiness but out of the pain of waiting for him all these years.
“Fiancée? That’s just what you think. Did Molin acknowledge it? Did he admit that you are his fiancée?” An Hao asked harshly.
“But Grandpa Chu and Uncle Chu agreed, so I am Molin’s fiancée.” Luu Xiao’ai said while wiping away her tears with the back of her hand.
“Ha, Xiao’ai, they aren’t Molin. They can’t decide for him. Do you want to marry the Chu family members who agreed to this instead?” An Hao gazed at Luu Xiao’ai, barely managing a smile. She wasn’t going to just stand by while this spoiled princess tried to steal her best friend’s husband. She must be dreaming!
“Grandpa Chu said that once Molin comes back, we’ll get married. Both families agreed on this, how can it not be true?” Luu Xiao’ai insisted that Chu Molin would come back to marry her. She had loved Molin for many years, and now he was finally coming back for her.
