Chapter 182: The Child is Sick

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

After Qiao An betrayed Huo Xiaoran, she was afraid that Huo Xiaoran, would take revenge on her, so she handed the three children over to Qiao He to take care of for a period of time.

Qiao He, on the other hand, was a worrisome person. He took the child out to have fun, which made Joey quickly develop a fever.

In the middle of the night, Qiao He called Qiao An and said anxiously, “Sister, Joey seems to have a fever. Her entire body is burning.”

Qiao An was so frightened that she jumped out of bed. She forgot to put on her coat and ran to Qiao He’s rented room in her slippers.

Fortunately, the rental apartment wasn’t far from her. In order to make it convenient for her to take care of the child at any time, Qiao An rented a house near her home in Huaman City.

After she ran to the rented house, she slammed the door.

“Qiao He. Open up.”

Qiao He opened the door and looked at Qiao An guiltily. “Sister, I’m sorry. I didn’t take good care of Joey.”

Qiao An didn’t have the time to settle scores with him. She ran straight to Joey’s room and touched the child’s forehead. Then she picked up the child, wrapped her in the blanket, and ran to the hospital.

She didn’t forget to remind Qiao He, “Take care of Angel and Ki Ki. I’ll take Joey to the hospital.”

The nearest hospital to Huaman City was Jinghang Hospital. Qiao An didn’t think about the consequences of exposing herself at all, because Joey would convulse nine times out of ten when he had a fever, and it was extremely dangerous every time. Therefore, she only had one thought now, to send her to the hospital and quickly reduce her fever.

After Qiao An sent Joey to the hospital, she immediately told the pediatrician about Joey’s medical history. The pediatrician immediately treated her to a rapid fever reduction and gave her a shot of fever medicine and a fever-reducing embolus.

After half an hour, Joey’s fever subsided.

Joey exhaled heavily.

The doctor suggested that Qiao An stay for a while to see if the child’s fever would repeat.

Qiao An sat in the waiting hall with Joey in her arms.

Qiao An Joey had woken up at some point. Seeing her mommy’s tired posture, she blinked her innocent big eyes and called out softly, “Mommy, I love you.”

Jo Ann pulled Joey tightly into her arms and said, “Mommy loves you too.”

Qiao An was so focused on the child that she didn’t notice the looks of surprise from the doctors on duty.

They even gathered together and discussed. “She’s the daughter-in-law of the Li family who jumped off a building three years ago. She was saved by Doctor Li from our hospital. I didn’t expect her to become so beautiful after three years.”

“No wonder she was able to marry into the Li family as the young mistress of a wealthy family back then. With her looks, you can’t find another person in the entertainment industry. She looks pure and youthful. As a woman, I can’t help but like her.”

“Unfortunately, she’s taken. I wonder who her husband was in the end?”

… .

An hour later, Qiao An memorized the medical advice and left the hospital with Joey in her arms.

Little did she know that her appearance at Jinghang Hospital tonight was like throwing a huge rock into a calm lake.

The next day, when Lu Mo arrived at the hospital, a nosey parker told her about Qiao An’s appearance.

“Dr. Lu, don’t you remember Qiao An, the one who jumped off a building three years ago? Last night, she came to the hospital with a child. Oh my god, it’s been three years since we last met. You would never have thought that that skinny dried corpse would actually be so beautiful. She has a figure, a face, and a temperament. Which man can resist her charm?”

Lu Mo’s palms were sweating.

Her heart was beating wildly, but she pretended to be calm and asked her colleague, “You said that she came to see a doctor with a child? How old is that child?”

“Apparently, he’s two and a half years old.”

Lu Mo’s breathing paused. Her heart skipped a beat.

Calculating the time Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran had sex back then, their child should be two and a half years old if Qiao An did not miscarrry.

Could that child be Huo Xiaoran’s?

Lu Mo bade farewell to her colleague in a panic. She staggered back to her office and sent a message to her mother with trembling hands.

“Mom, Qiao An is back. She came to Jinghang Hospital last night with the child.”

Mrs. Lu’s face turned pale when she saw this message.

However, she quickly calmed down.

“Don’t give yourself away. Leave Qiao An to me. Sleep with Huo Xiaoran as soon as possible. Stabilize your status as Mrs. Huo.”

“I got it.”

After the mother and daughter exchanged information, they quickly deleted all their messages.

After Lu Mo got off work, she did not go home directly.

Instead, she turned to the Angel Group.

Huo Xiaoran was wearing a well-tailored suit and sitting with his legs crossed, looking elegant and dark. He seemed to be waiting for something.

When Lu Mo entered, she was stunned to see the noble and cold Huo Xiaoran.

Lu Mo felt that Huo Xiaoran was very unfamiliar and respectable.

“Senior,” Lu Mo called out gently.

Huo Xiaoran said, “Momo, go back first. I’ll get off work very late today.”

Lu Mo walked up to him and sat down. She glared at him with aggrieved eyes and wheedled, “Senior, you haven’t accompanied me in a long time. Let’s eat a couple’s meal tonight.”

Huo Xiaoran’s phone rang. Huo Xiaoran eagerly grabbed his phone and heard Secretary Dong’s anxious voice.

“CEO, we found Chen Sisi.”

“Give me the location. I’ll be right there.”

Huo Xiaoran stood up and ignored Lu Mo as he strode out.

“Senior Brother, I’ll accompany you,” Lu Mo said.

Huo Xiaoran didn’t have time to talk to her, so he simply brought her along to save trouble.

He deliberately drove a low-profile BMW SUV, stepped on the accelerator, and sped out.

It was fast.

The car arrived at the place where Secretary Dong had located—Central Square.

At this moment, his subordinates had already surrounded Qiao An.

Secretary Dong warned Qiao An, “Chen Sisi, I advise you to cooperate with us. Come with us to see my CEO obediently.”

Qiao An was very sensible. Anyway, she had put on makeup and her identity card was fake. As long as she escaped, she could just stop using this makeup in the future.

“Fine,” Qiao An said.

Secretary Dong escorted Qiao An to Huo Xiaoran’s BMW.

Huo Xiaoran opened the car door and got out.

At this moment, the sky was covered in gloom, and it looked like a storm was about to arrive.

“Chen Sisi, why did you leak our company’s formula?” When Huo Xiaoran interrogated Qiao An, his tone was quite polite at first.

However, Qiao An was full of reverse scales. “Do you have evidence? Don’t slander me without evidence.”

“Chen Sisi, I advise you to cooperate with us. Otherwise, fists have no eyes,” Huo Xiaoran said sinisterly.

Qiao An teased, “CEO Huo is best at disregarding human lives.”
