Chapter 333: Uncle and Nephew Showdown, Qiao An’s Unease

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Xiao Gang tried his best to comfort his mother. “Mom, the Xiao family is loyal. How can we tolerate Xiao Ming, this bastard, tarnishing the reputation of the Xiao family? I know you feel sorry for Xiao Ming, but he made a mistake, so we should settle it ourselves. Only then will our dead brother be able to rest in peace.”

Old Madam Xiao couldn’t stop crying.

Xiao Gang’s stepfather felt sorry for his wife and persuaded Xiao Gang, “Xiao Gang, let your colleague do the task of arresting Xiao Ming. Why are you so stubborn as to fight Xiao Ming personally? How can your mother not feel aggrieved?”

Xiao Gang glanced at his stepfather. “Dad, don’t say anything. I think Big Brother must support my decision. Instead of letting his unfilial son, Xiao Ming, die at the hands of others, it’s better for me to deal with him myself.”

At this moment, Xiao Yue’s mother said, “Don’t think so pessimistically. Xiao Gang might not necessarily fight Xiao Ming to the death. Perhaps… Xiao Ming will be convinced and be willing to turn himself in.”

Everyone was silent.

This assumption of Xiao Gang’s wife was really impossible. Because Xiao Ming had injured many police officers in the shooting that night. One police officer was seriously injured and died.

What Xiao Ming had done had proven that he had no humanity at all. He had not thought of turning back at all.

After Xiao Yue learned of her father’s decision, she was so sad that she secretly cried.

She found Qiao An and complained to her, “Sister Qiao An, my father has already applied to the higher-ups to personally arrest Brother Xiao Ming. I’m so afraid that they will really have a conflict and hurt each other…”

Qiao An jumped out of her chair at the news. The color drained from her face.

Did Xiao Gang want to personally arrest Xiao Ming?

If they were to fight head-on, Qiao An knew that Xiao Ming would never point the gun at his uncle. Then it could only be Xiao Gang who killed Xiao Ming…

However, if Xiao Gang really killed Xiao Ming, he would definitely feel guilty for the rest of his life.

Qiao An wanted to stop this tragedy from happening.

She reminded Xiao Yue indirectly, “Yueyue, although that gangster looks like Xiao Ming, he might not be the real Xiao Ming. Yueyue, remind your father not to be rash. What if your father is wrong?”

Xiao Yue’s face was ashen. “My father will never be wrong. My father said that the Xiao family is loyal. If a traitor appears, the Xiao family should resolve it themselves.”

Qiao An waa burning with anxiety..

The war between Xiao Gang and Xiao Ming was undoubtedly an internal conflict because Xiao Ming was not the person they thought he was.

But Qiao An couldn’t tell the truth. She was panicking.

Fortunately, the next few days were very peaceful. Xiao Ming seemed to have disappeared from this world.

Qiao An heaved a sigh of relief. Xiao Ming was probably unwilling to go against the Xiao family, so he found a way to avoid the limelight.

It was just a wave of trouble.

Just as the Xiao family’s matters calmed down, something went wrong with the Li family again.

On this day, the Li family’s butler called Huo Xiaoran. “Fourth Young Master, Old Master has finally woken up. He wants you to go home and say that he has something to discuss with you brothers.”

Huo Xiaoran immediately understood that the old man was preparing to distribute the Li family’s assets while he was alive.

Huo Xiaoran was not interested in the Li family’s money, but he was eager to know the cause of his mother’s death.

The Li family had covered it up too well in the past few years, leaving him with no evidence to prove that the Li family was responsible for his mother’s death.

Now, Old Master Li was about to die. Perhaps his words would be kind and Huo Xiaoran would be able to uncover some secrets.

Huo Xiaoran brought Qiao An back to the Li family.

Old Master Li wanted to summon Huo Xiaoran alone. Huo Xiaoran originally wanted to bring Qiao An in to see Old Master Li, but Qiao An rejected him. “Brother Xiaoran, he only wants to see you. He must have some words that can only be said to you.”

“But you’re not an outsider,” Huo Xiaoran said.

Qiao An pushed him in and tried to be understanding. “I’d rather not go in. You and your father can have a good chat.”

After Huo Xiaoran entered, Qiao An closed the door.

Then, she stood in the corridor and waited quietly for Huo Xiaoran.

A child suddenly ran out of the corridor. When he saw Qiao An, he smiled foolishly at her. “Hehe… hehe…”

Qiao An stared at him blankly. She could tell from years of raising children that there was something wrong with this child.

She was a little stunned.

At this moment, Wei Xin suddenly ran over and hugged the child. Then, her slap landed on the child’s butt. “Who asked you to run around?”

After the child was beaten, he cried out, “It hurts… it hurts…”

Qiao An’s heart ached for the child. “The child didn’t do anything wrong. Why did you hit him?”

Wei Xin glared at Qiao An angrily. “Qiao An, are you happy to see my son like this? Because this is the retribution Li Zecheng and I received.”

Only then did Qiao An know that this was Wei Xin and Li Zecheng’s Er Bao.

She walked up to Wei Xin, took out a toy from her bag, and handed it to the crying child. The child instantly stopped crying.

Qiao An then said to Wei Xin, “I admit that I used to hate you and Li Zecheng very much. I felt that you, a mistress, ruined my life. I felt that Li Zecheng ruined my life. But that was many years ago. After Li Zecheng and I divorced, I slowly healed myself.”

“Believe it or not, I don’t hate you and Li Zecheng that much now. It’s even more impossible for me to hate innocent children. Because I’m living a good and happy life now. I’m not willing to spend my good years paying tribute to the unbearable memories of the past.”

Wei Xin’s expression darkened.

In front of Qiao An, she was a complete failure.

“I heard that Huo Xiaoran and you aren’t married yet?” Wei Xin asked mischievously.

Qiao An was speechless.

Wei Xin smiled proudly again. “There are many variables in life. Qiao An, if Huo Xiaoran can abandon you the first time, he can abandon you again.”

Qiao An stared at her…

When she saw the arrogant and conceited smile in Wei Xin’s eyes, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This was because Qiao An had fallen time and time again in the conspiracy, giving her a super strong anti-counterfeit ability.

Instinct told her that Wei Xin was trying to incite her.

Wei Xin chattered. “Qiao An, it’s been so many years, but he still hasn’t given you a status. If you follow him, you won’t have a proper title. To put it bluntly, aren’t you his free lover?”

Qiao An trembled with anger and slapped Wei Xin.

Wei Xin covered her burning face and laughed sarcastically. “Why? Am I right?”
