Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The maid’s eyes watered completely.
Perhaps because she was touched by Qiao An’s kindness, she finally broke through her defense and told her the truth. “Miss Qiao, it’s true that my father is sick. However, CEO Huo has already paid for my medical fees for free. CEO Huo is really a kind person. He hired me to take care of you because he hopes that I can make you happy. Miss Qiao, just eat some food.”
Qiao An said angrily, “I’m not eating. Tell him I’ll go on a hunger strike unless he lets me out.”
The maid was helpless. She could only use the landline in the residence to call Huo Xiaoran. Qiao An looked at the maid calmly. She was a little nervous. She had caused a scene with Huo Xiaoran just now. Now that he was on guard, he probably wouldn’t answer her call.
Unexpectedly, Huo Xiaoran picked up the phone quickly.
!!
The maid told him, “President, it’s me. I’m Mother Huang.”
Huo Xiaoran’s voice came out of the speaker. “How’s An’an?”
The maid glanced helplessly at Qiao An. “Miss Qiao An won’t eat. She says if you don’t let her out, she’ll go on a hunger strike.”
Huo Xiaoran actually chuckled. His laughter clearly mocked Qiao An for being childish.
Qiao An’s face turned green with anger.
“Mother Huang, find a way to make her drink more water. I’ll be back as soon as possible.”
“Yes.”
After hanging up, the maid calmed Qiao An. “The president said he’d be back as soon as possible.”
Qiao An, certain that he wouldn’t dare come to see her, said, “That’s his excuse.”
After the ordeal, she, who was already sick, collapsed on the sofa. Her feverish body made her cheeks flush. She collapsed on the sofa sickly.
Angel Qiao and Joey were right there, taking care of her. Like how Mommy took care of them when they were sick.
The maid quickly found some fever medicine, but Qiao An was clearly confused from the fever and refused to take the medicine.
Fortunately, Huo Xiaoran quickly rushed home. The moment he came in, Qiao An sat up in shock.
Had she really not expected him back so soon?
Was he really worried about her?
But she said mercilessly, “Why? Are you finally willing to come back?”
Huo Xiaoran walked over and ignored her angry words. Instead, he touched her forehead with concern. “What her temperature?”
The maid was troubled. “Miss Qiao won’t let me take her temperature.”
Huo Xiaoran said, “Qiao An, you’re not obedient.”
Qiao An glared at him angrily. “Let me out.”
Huo Xiaoran reached out to hug her and coaxed her, “If you recover, I’ll let you go.”
Qiao An pushed him, but she was too weak. Huo Xiaoran did not move at all.
He picked her up and carried her upstairs to the bedroom.
He instructed Mother Huang, “Mother Huang, bring breakfast to the bedroom.”
“Yes, yes,” said Mother Huang.
Huo Xiaoran carried Qiao An to the master bedroom. Qiao An said angrily, “I don’t want to sleep here.”
“Give me a reason?” Huo Xiaoran looked at her angry face and felt inexplicably cute.
Qiao An said, “I’m not sleeping in the scumbag’s room.”
Huo Xiaoran gritted his teeth. “Qiao An, don’t regret it.”
“If I regret, I’ll be a pig”
Huo Xiaoran was speechless.
In the end, Huo Xiaoran carried her to the next room and gently placed her on the bed. He pressed his body against her and imprisoned her in his embrace. “If you’re sick, you have to be obedient.”
Qiao An questioned him with red eyes. “Why are you imprisoning me?”
Huo Xiaoran reached out and touched her porcelain-like face. He said gently, “Didn’t I say that we have to end things eventually, but not now. It’s after my wedding with Lu Mo.”
Qiao An’s eyes turned red with anger. “Huo Xiaoran, don’t you think you’re too cruel to me?”
Huo Xiaoran’s hand froze slightly. Qiao An’s grievance and heartache made him want to withdraw his revenge plan for a moment.
He didn’t want to argue about anything, as long as Qiao An was okay.
However… his remaining rationality told him that if he wanted to get rid of the obstacles in his future once and for all, he had to be ruthless to Lu Mo.
He wanted to warn those people that they would end up like Lu Mo if they hurt Qiao An.
“An’an.” He covered her gently with his body. His gentle hand caressed her face tightly. “Please, give me three more days. I’ll end it with you.”
Qiao An’s felt like her heart was bleeding. Since three days wouldn’t change the outcome, why did he leave her in hell to suffer for three days?
“Huo Xiaoran, I hate you.” Qiao An closed her eyes as tears flowed out.
Huo Xiaoran gently wiped her tears. “Don’t hate me, An’an.”
Qiao An said, “You don’t love me anymore.”
She could finally tell him about the child’s background now. She no longer had to worry that he had reluctantly returned to her because of the children.
She no longer needed to test his feelings for her.
“Huo Xiaoran, I want you to tell you a secret.” Qiao An cried, her face filled with despair.
Huo Xiaoran looked at her in a daze and felt inexplicably uneasy.
“I once made a promise to you and gave you a warm home and a bunch of children. Huo Xiaoran, do you remember?”
“Yeah.”
“Angel Qiao is your daughter. In the future, please treat them well.”
Huo Xiaoran seemed to have heard something and looked at her in fear. “An’an, the children will always be yours. I won’t take them away from you.”
Because he didn’t want to leave her.
As if she couldn’t hear him, Qiao An muttered to herself, “Joey, although she’s not your daughter, please protect her well. Promise me you’ll love her more than you love Angel. She deserves the most sincere love in the world.”
Huo Xiaoran hugged Qiao An tightly. “An’an, stop talking. You have a fever and are talking nonsense.”
He mixed her fever medicine and fed it into her mouth bit by bit.
Then hot water was fetched and she was toweled off. Trying to bring her fever down quickly, physically, to bring her to her senses and not say the things that made him feel uneasy.
He’d also changed out of her damp pajamas and into the fiery red ones he’d prepared for her. Qiao An’s fever was really high, and she quickly drifted off to sleep.
She muttered, “Brother Xiaoran, I’m so tired. I’m sorry, I don’t want to love you anymore.”
Huo Xiaoran’s eyes turned red. At that moment, the defense in his heart collapsed. “An’an, I love you. I really love you. If you persist, you’ll see the rainbow soon.
It wasn’t easy for us to get this far and understand each other’s feelings. How can we give up so easily?”
Our lives are bound together for the rest of our lives, and we’ll be bound together in the future.”
After a while, the drug made Qiao An break out in a cold sweat, and her temperature plummeted to normal. Although she had recovered a lot, she was still angry.
Mother Huang brought breakfast over and Huo Xiaoran fed her considerately.
Qiao An didn’t resist this time, as if she didn’t have the strength. She opened her mouth and ate in silence.
