Chapter 289: Lu Mo’s Provocation, Qiao An’s Pain

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

In the CEO’s office of Angel Group, Huo Xiaoran sat on the black leather seat and listened to the Angel Group’s laboratory technician’s report. “President, the medicine that Miss Lu Mo took has been tested. According to the composition of the medicine, I’m certain that Miss Lu Mo didn’t take it. Because many sensitive components have very strict requirements for weight, it’s obvious that Miss Lu Mo’s weight doesn’t meet the requirements.”

“The person taking the medicine must weigh more than 100 pounds.”

Huo Xiaoran narrowed his eyes. “About 50 kilograms?”

He immediately thought of Lu Mo’s mother, that tall and fat woman.

“I understand.”

“Then I’ll take my leave.”

When the laboratory technician opened the door and left, Lu Mo was standing at the door. She was in a good mood.

“Senior.” She held her phone in her hand and placed it in front of Huo Xiaoran’s desk.

“Qiao An’s gone too far,” she began aggressively.

It was only when Qiao An was involved that Huo Xiaoran became interested.

“Did Qiao An provoke you?” he asked lightly. His voice was especially gentle when he mentioned Qiao An’s name.

“Senior, listen to this recording.” Lu Mo was afraid that he had not expressed it well enough, so he turned on the recording.

Qiao An’s imperious voice spilled out:

“Huo Xiaoran will give me as much of his assets as I want, even if it’s all of them. Help me tell Lu Mo that I, Qiao An, have the ability to take away all of Huo Xiaoran’s assets. Tell her to consider carefully if she wants to get married.”

When Huo Xiaoran heard the recording, he was stunned.

Qiao An was cautious in front of him but learned to back him up behind his back. Especially at the end, Qiao An actually threatened Lu Mo not to marry him.

Although he knew that this was just a trick of hers to intimidate others, he was in a good mood to be held back by her.

Lu Mo said indignantly, “Senior, listen to her. Is that what a human would say? You have a family. What right does she have to take all your assets?”

Huo Xiaoran looked at Lu Mo. Lu Mo kept saying that she married him because she loved him, but she always showed her passion for his worldly possessions.

She had gone to great lengths to marry him because she loved his rights.

Huo Xiaoran shrugged and said, “She’s not wrong, because I did promise her that everything I have in the future will belong to her.”

Lu Mo widened her eyes. “Senior, that’s the oath you made when you were young and frivolous. It doesn’t count.”

Huo Xiaoran’s expression was serious. “If an oath can be casually invalidated, what about my oath to marry you?”

Lu Mo was dumbfounded.

“Then you’re really prepared to give her all your assets?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “If Qiao An doesn’t mind, I’ll give it all to her. Anyway, money is just a worldly possession to me.”

Lu Mo’s expression was ugly.

After leaving the Angel Group, Lu Mo did not go home.

She thought about it and realized that Huo Xiaoran didn’t seem to cherish his assets at all. He was a person who valued promises more than benefits. If he really transferred all his assets to Qiao An one day, wouldn’t she be empty-handed after marrying him?

To be safe, she felt she had to start with Qiao An and defend everything that was hers.

For the first time, she texted Qiao An. “Where are you? I want to see you?”

Qiao An and Xiao Yue were studying the script, as they were about to devote themselves to filming.

Qiao An was momentarily dazed when she received Lu Mo’s message.

“What’s wrong?” Xiao Yue leaned her head over.

Seeing Lu Mo’s message, Xiao Yue said, “Isn’t she busy preparing for her marriage with Cousin recently? She still has the mood to find trouble with you? Ignore her.”

Qiao An said, “She took the time to meet me. I’m sure it’s important.”

Xiao Yue said, “Then ask her to meet us at the Heavenly Imperial Garden.”

Qiao An looked at the courtyard Huo Xiaoran had bought for her, and a cold glint flashed across her eyes. She shared the location with Lu Mo.

“Come over here.”

Lu Mo opened the shared map and saw Qiao An’s location. She was furious.

Why was she in Heavenly Imperial Garden?

She couldn’t wait to come to Heavenly Imperial Garden—Qiao An’s new home. Her eyes widened when she saw that Qiao An’s new home was next to Huo Xiaoran’s.

“Qiao An, what are you doing here?” She was confused.

“Oh, I bought this house,” Qiao An said slowly. “Speaking of which, I should thank Brother Xiaoran. He paid for it.”

Xiao Yue added fuel to the fire. “Cousin is very generous to Sister Qiao An. He bought four houses in Heavenly Imperial Garden and gave them to Sister Qiao An and her three children.”

Lu Mo swayed as if he had been struck by lightning.

She glared at Qiao An with hatred. “What right do you have to be treated so well by him? Qiao An, you can’t be greedy.”

Qiao An pretended to be troubled. “I didn’t want it at first. Brother Xiaoran forced it on me.”

Lu Mo walked up to Qiao An aggressively and said, “Qiao An, I think it’s necessary for me to educate you on the the marriage law. After Xiaoran and I get married, half of his assets will be mine. He has no right to deal with our common assets. If you still accept his gift as brazenly as you do now, I have the right to recover my assets.”

Qiao An smiled. “Lu Mo, don’t worry. Brother Xiaoran and I aren’t illiterate. We know the civil law and marriage law better than you. He gave these properties to me before he married. It has nothing to do with you.”

“As for you wanting half his fortune after you’re married, I think you might be dreaming. After all, there are ten thousand ways capitalists can protect their assets, such as notarizing premarital property… If you’re marrying him because you love his money, I advise you to give up.”

Lu Mo’s expression was cold. “I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you. Senior won’t treat me like that.”

She took out a black card from her bag and showed it off. “Senior gave me an unlimited card and told me to pay whatever I wanted. I can have as many houses as I want.”

Qiao An was stunned. Her heart ached inexplicably.

Huo Xiaoran indeed had deep feelings for Lu Mo.

Perhaps Wei Xin was right. He had treated her well in the past to make up for his debt to her.

She suddenly became anxious. “Alright, Lu Mo, if you want to protect your assets, then control your man.”

Then she turned and left.

Lu Mo could tell that Qiao An was in a bad mood and smiled evilly.

At ten in the evening, Huo Xiaoran returned home.
