Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qiao An was so angry that she lost her appetite. She put down her bowl and chopsticks and glared at Huo Xiaoran.
Seeing that she was really angry, Huo Xiaoran eagerly picked up some food for her and coaxed her, “Alright, eat quickly. How can height be more important than health?”
Annoyed, Qiao An picked up her chopsticks and lowered her head to eat.
...At that moment, her phone vibrated on the dining table.
Qiao An was about to pick up her phone, but Huo Xiaoran beat her to it. She was not in a hurry. Thinking that her phone had a lock screen design, she glared at Huo Xiaoran.
Huo Xiaoran smiled evilly and typed in his birthday. The phone screen opened.
Qiao An’s expression changed from shock to astonishment, but she finally blushed.
Wouldn’t he know all about what she was thinking about him? But how did this guy guess the password to her phone?
Afraid that he would discover her secret with Xiao Ming, she quickly got up to snatch the phone. However, because she used too much force, she almost fell to the ground. Huo Xiaoran quickly grabbed her and pulled her into his arms.
Lu Mo was petrified.
Were these two openly showing off their affection in front of her?
She was furious.
Qiao An was in no mood to care about Lu Mo’s thoughts.
“Huo Xiaoran, return my phone to me.”
Huo Xiaoran was born with long limbs. When he raised his phone, Qiao An couldn’t reach it.
However, he teased Qiao An. “An’an, I like the password very much.”
Qiao An’s ears were about to bleed.
“I have a bad memory. That’s why I keep using the same password. Don’t overthink it.”
“Yes, An’an, you’re a very nostalgic person. Coincidentally, so am I,” Huo Xiaoran said.
Qiao An fumed.
This guy had a thick skin.How was he nostalgic?
He had changed his girlfriend changed twice.
When Qiao An wasn’t paying attention, Huo Xiaoran took the time to look at the message. The number of the message was actually 10086, but the content was very explosive.
“Sister Qiao, I’ll save you immediately.”
Huo Xiaoran’s handsome face darkened. “10086? Who’s 10086?”
“Why don’t you ask Telecom?” Qiao An teased arrogantly.
Huo Xiaoran glanced at her and suddenly said meaningfully, “Don’t think about escaping. The outside world is very dangerous.”
Qiao An snorted. “Can it be as dangerous as staying with a liar like you?”
Huo Xiaoran was dumbfounded.
Huo Xiaoran pondered for a moment and said, “I only scam women. At least, I don’t scam for money or lives.”
Qiao An was speechless.
At this moment, the door defense system lit up. In the photo frame, Xiao Ming’s face was especially handsome. “Xiaoran, my parents asked me to send you a congratulatory gift.”
Huo Xiaoran’s face darkened again. He said angrily, “Come in.” Then, he looked straight at Qiao An.
Qiao An looked down at her food. She looked guilty.
After Xiao Ming entered, he took out a few red packets from his pocket. The red packets were all thin bank cards. He handed them to Huo Xiaoran.
Huo Xiaoran did not accept the red packet. Instead, he looked at Xiao Ming’s annoying face. “When did you go to work at 10086?”
Xiao Ming was stunned. He smiled deeply.
“Xiaoran, this is a gift from my parents. This is a gift from me. This is a gift from my sister. It’s all money. Don’t think it’s too little.”
Only then did Huo Xiaoran reach out to take it. However, in front of Xiao Ming, he rudely opened the red packet. Then, a few half-used cards fell out.
Huo Xiaoran held the card and teased, “Aren’t these empty cards?”
Xiao Ming, who had just sat down in the dining chair, suddenly choked and coughed.
Huo Xiaoran was indeed smart.
“Xiaoran, there’s money inside.”
“A penny is still money,” Huo Xiaoran mocked.
Xiao Ming said, “Can we have a pleasant chat?”
Huo Xiaoran threw the card to Joey. “Come, Uncle will give you the gift. Baby, you’ll have money to go to school and apply for tutoring classes in the future. When you grow up, you won’t have to worry about getting married.”
Xiao Ming was stunned.
He even suspected that Huo Xiaoran knew Joey’s identity. If… he had known that Huo Xiaoran would do this, he would definitely not be stingy and transfer all his assets into the card.
Angel Qiao pouted aggrievedly. “Uncle Huo, I want one too.”
At this moment, Huo Xiaoran took out a money clip from his pocket and gave Angel a diamond card.
He looked extreme doting.
Lu Mo’s expression was extremely ugly. She couldn’t bear for Huo Xiaoran to spend money on another woman.
Even if she knew that this person was Huo Xiaoran’s daughter, she couldn’t.
“Xiaoran, Angel is still so young. It’s not safe for you to give her so much money,” Lu Mo said sourly.
Huo Xiaoran asked her, “Are you referring to the person or the money?”
Lu Mo smiled awkwardly. “Of course it’s because it’s not safe for the person.”
Huo Xiaoran thought for a moment and nodded. “That makes sense. So, Qiao An, you should keep this diamond card for Angel.”
Xiao Ming said, “How much money is in there? Do you have to be so nervous?”
Huo Xiaoran said, “Everything.”
Xiao Ming was dumbfounded.
Qiao An was also stunned.
Lu Mo’s fingernails almost dug into her flesh.
Xiao Ming glanced at the red-eyed Lu Mo with a smile and accused Huo Xiaoran, “Cousin, if you give all your money to Angel, do you still have the money to marry a wife?”
Huo Xiaoran said, “Lu Mo loves me, not my money. Even if I don’t have a cent, she will still marry me.”
Lu Mo’s lips twitched. She originally had a stomach full of anger to vent, but because of Huo Xiaoran’s words, she couldn’t flare up.
Xiao Ming smiled evilly. “What more can a husband ask for when he has such a wife?”
Huo Xiaoran was not blinded by his sugar-coated bullets. He looked at Xiao Ming coldly and said, “You came to me with a few useless cards. This seems unaccountably solicitous. Tell me, why are you here?”
Xiao Ming smiled and said, “Cousin, I’m giving you a congratulatory gift out of goodwill. Don’t judge a gentleman by your own pettiness, okay?”
Qiao An ate quietly and thought to herself, Huo Xiaoran was watching her so closely. Xiao Ming probably couldn’t take her away.
Xiao Ming supported his chin with one hand and looked at Huo Xiaoran with a smile. His handsome eyes kept flickering.
Mother Huang and Lu Mo suddenly collapsed on the table.
Huo Xiaoran smiled. “Hypnosis is useless against me.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ming suddenly took out a medicinal powder and flicked it in front of Huo Xiaoran’s nose.
Huo Xiaoran’s eyes suddenly turned red. He stood up angrily and glared at Xiao Ming. However, the effect of the medicine was too strong. When he moved, his entire body trembled and he fell to the ground.
“Brother Xiaoran.”
Qiao An was still worried about him. She ran up to him, and Huo Xiaoran grabbed her hand tightly at the last moment.
