Chapter 238: The House Is Too Expensive, I’ll Pay with My Body

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Qiao An was too used to being independent to trouble others. “Is that okay?” she asked shyly.

Xiao Yue said, “He’s the father of the three children. Isn’t it only right for him to help the children?”

Qiao An looked at the pile of packages and hesitated. However, before she could respond, Xiao Yue had already taken out her phone and called Huo Xiaoran.

Huo Xiaoran picked it up almost instantly.

Xiao Yue couldn’t help but tease him again. “Yo, Cousin, you answer the phone so quickly.”

Huo Xiaoran said gloomily, “Yueyue, your parents came to my house yesterday. They asked me about your boyfriend. How should I answer them?”

Xiao Yue was tightly held by Huo Xiaoran. She glanced at Qiao An for help.

Qiao An’s eyes were dark. Xiao Yue’s boyfriend was Qiao He, her cousin. From what Huo Xiaoran said, did he still want to ruin their relationship?

Qiao An snatched the phone and questioned Huo Xiaoran angrily, “Brother Xiaoran, tell me, how do you want to answer them?”

On the other end.

Huo Xiaoran smiled when he heard Qiao An’s voice.

“That depends on your performance.”

Qiao An was speechless.

This guy was threatening her.

“What performance?”

“In the future, when you see me, keep your voice low. Don’t look so fierce. Be polite to me. If you see me, address me,” Huo Xiaoran said leisurely.

Qiao An was dumbfounded. Then, she called out softly, “Brother Xiaoran…”

The hostility and sharpness that filtered out the protective layer had a very recognizable softness and finesse, making Huo Xiaoran’s heart involuntarily tingle.

“Not bad. You’re worth teaching,” he said with relief.

Qiao An took advantage of the situation. “Brother Xiaran, are you free?”

“Do you have something to ask me?” Huo Xiaoran asked.

Qiao An giggled. “In order to support you and Huo Zhou’s career, Yueyue and I worked hard for the entire day in the Huo family’s mall. We bought too much. Can we be rewarded with the service of delivering the goods home?”

Huo Xiaoran paused. “That depends on how much revenue you’ve earned for us.”

“Hundreds of thousands,” Qiao An said.

Huo Xiaoran thought of Qiao An’s old clothes and shook his head. “Our company’s rules are that the sales volume is above a million.”

Qiao An wheedled. “Brother, our legs are almost broken from shopping.”

“Wait for me.”

Huo Xiaoran closed his laptop and left.

Not long after, Huo Xiaoran drove his Rolls-Royce to the entrance of the Huo Mall.

From afar, he saw two strays sitting on the stone steps of the mall. They held their chins pitifully and looked down blankly.

Huo Xiaoran’s car stopped at the entrance. When the security guards at the mall saw the young boss coming, they immediately came out to welcome him. Two rows of people stood neatly on both sides of Huo Xiaoran and bowed to him. They shouted respectfully, “Hello, CEO.”

Huo Xiaoran ordered them arrogantly, “Carry this pile of things to the car.”

The security guards immediately went to work.

Qiao An and Xiao Yue looked at each other with hopeless expressions.

Xiao Yue snorted. “Why is the difference so big? Why weren’t they so attentive when they saw us two beauties?”

Huo Xiaoran walked up to them and reached out to pull them up.

Xiao Yue pouted and said, “Cousin, I really can’t walk anymore. Can you carry me?”

Huo Xiaoran ignored her and looked at Qiao An.

“And you?”

“I’m fine.” Qiao An had actually not fully recovered from her illness, and at this moment, she was limp.

But she was used to being stubborn.

Huo Xiaoran said to Xiao Yue, “Walk by yourself.”

Xiao Yue lamented, “There’s no humanity in the opposite sex.”

Huo Xiaoran helped Qiao An walk slowly. Sensing that Qiao An was staggering, Huo Xiaoran picked her up.

Xiao Yue was left behind. When she saw Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An so close, she was furious.

“Cousin, I need to be carried too.”

“You’re as strong as a bull. Walk on your own,” Huo Xiaoran said.

Xiao Yue sighed.

“I won’t take care of your family’s business anymore.”

“Wouldn’t that be a huge loss for me?” came a clear voice.

Xiao Yue turned around and saw Huo Zhou walking over in a suit.

Xiao Yue was overjoyed. “Eldest Cousin. Second Cousin bullied me.”

Huo Zhou walked over and squatted down. “I’ll carry you.”

Xiao Yue climbed onto his back and said excitedly, “Eldest Cousin is still the best to me.”

The trunk was full, but there was still a pile of goods at the entrance of the mall that had not been loaded.

Huo Xiaoran said to Huo Zhou, “Zhou Zhou, lend me your car.”

Huo Zhou handed the key to his assistant and ordered, “Help me send the remaining goods over.”

“Okay.”

The four of them piled into the Rolls Royce, and the atmosphere in the car instantly became lively.

Xiao Yue’s living environment had been especially good since she was young. Everything had been smooth-sailing, so she had developed a lively and mischievous personality. She didn’t stop for a moment and started to cause trouble again. “Cousin, Sister Qiao An and I have made such a huge contribution to your mall. Shouldn’t you show some gratitude?”

Huo Zhou said, “I’ve long heard that women have a strong desire to buy, but I didn’t expect it to be so strong. The two of you bought two carts of clothes. Are you preparing to open a shop?”

Xiao Yue said, “If it weren’t for my legs, Qiao An and I would still be shopping. You don’t know, there aren’t many clothes in Qiao An’s closet. It’s a waste of her beauty.”

Qiao An clicked her tongue. “Ah.”

Xiao Yue asked her, “Why are you sighing?”

Qiao An said, “Now that I bought these clothes home, should I change the wardrobe at home?”

Xiao Yue nodded. “Of course. You have to install a spacious cloakroom.”

“But if we install a cloakroom, I won’t have enough space for a study at home.”

Xiao Yue pursed her lips and smiled. “Then you should move to a big house.”

Qiao An said, “I intend to.”

Xiao Yue glanced at the smiling Huo Xiaoran and tried her best to encourage Qiao An. “Why don’t you buy a house in Heavenly Imperial Garden? You can be my neighbor.”

Qiao An broke out in a sweat. “I do like Heavenly Imperial Garden. Unfortunately, I’m short of money.”

Huo Xiaoran looked at her. “I happen to have to deal with my house. Shall I’ll give it to you at a cheap price?”

“How cheap?” Qiao An asked sheepishly.

Huo Xiaoran said, “Give me as much as you have.”

Qiao An said, “I don’t have any money. Can I sell my body for it?”

Huo Xiaoran was shocked.

Huo Zhou, who was sitting in the front row, spat out the tea he had just drunk.
