Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce Novel - Chapter 452

452 Xiao Ran’s Mom
Ze’en returned to Qiao An’s side and happily made an OK gesture with her. “Aunt, he gave me his bank card. There are 100,000 dollars in it.”

Qiao An looked at Ze’en with an obscure expression. She sighed softly. “He really doesn’t treat you as his daughter. He has so much money to buy this and that, but he’s so stingy with his difficult daughter. However, this is still a good beginning for you to repair your relationship.”

Ze’en said coldly, “He wants to use the cheapest remuneration to procure the happiness of his children. He’s delusional.”

Qiao An reminded her, “Ze’en, don’t forget that we’re going to establish a detective agency together. Running a detective agency needs an extremely calm heart and rigorous reasoning. In the future, don’t be dominated by emotions. That will be a big taboo.”

Ze’en said, “Aunt, I know.”

!!
Qiao An looked at the darkening sky and said, “Your brother called just now. In order to support our entrepreneurship, he handed us a business.”

After a pause, Qiao An said, “He wants us to investigate your father’s funding. Treat it as our detective agency’s first case. Ze’en, are you confident you can decipher this?”

“Yes,” Ze’en said confidently.

Qiao An said, “Then think of a way to stay in the Li family villa.”

Ze’en said, “Okay.”

In the evening, Qiao An returned to the Heavenly Imperial Garden after saying goodbye to Ze’en.

Huo Xiaoran stood at the door, looking forward to Qiao An’s return.

When Qiao An’s figure entered his field of vision, Huo Xiaoran walked over quickly. “An’an, where did you go?”

Qiao An held his outstretched hand. She smiled and explained, “You’ve been obsessed with work these past few days, and I’ve made plans for my life. I’ve decided to join forces with Ze’en to start a business.”

Huo Xiaoran asked curiously, “Oh, then what do you want to do?”

Qiao An said, “Ze’en and I have been kidnapped by kidnappers. Perhaps after this ordeal, we got bolder. We decided to start a detective agency that speaks for justice.”

Huo Xiaoran didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “That’s not suitable for weak women like you.”

Qiao An said, “Brother Xiaoran, the first business of our detective agency is to investigate his father’s funding for Li Zecheng. Ze’en and I are confident that we can do this well.”

Huo Xiaoran widened his eyes. “How much did Li Zecheng give you?”

“He paid a deposit of 100,000 dollars.”

Huo Xiaoran frowned and said, “For this 100,000 dollars worth of deposit, my precious wife went to the Li family to suffer the disdain of others.” When he said this, his heart ached.

Qiao An held his hand affectionately and said, “Brother Xiaoran, you’ve been frowning and depressed for the past few days. I’m sure you’re worried about him, right? I’m free anyway, so I can help you share some of the burdens. I don’t want my precious husband to be burdened.”

Huo Xiaoran looked at Qiao An and was touched. “So you went to investigate him for my sake?”

Qiao An nodded. “I want to help you. I want to help him even more.”

It was obvious that she was referring to Xiaoran’s father.

Huo Xiaoran’s eyes were moist. He suddenly pulled Qiao An into his arms and said emotionally, “An’an, I’m fortunate to have met you in my life. Not only are you my good wife, but you’re also our good daughter-in-law. I thank you on his behalf.”

Qiao An pouted. “What are you talking about? We don’t have to thank each other.”

Qiao An discussedher business with Huo Xiaoran, who also opened his heart and shared his new research with her.

“Honey, I haven’t been idle these past few days. Let me show you something good.”

Huo Xiaoran pulled Qiao An to the study. He took out two bottles of different colors from his briefcase. Then, he unscrewed the lid and applied green paint to the white paper with a brush.

Strangely enough, the pigment was displayed on the paper for a few seconds before quickly disappearing.

Qiao An exclaimed, “How magical!”

Huo Xiaoran sprinkled another bottle of paint on the paper, and the words on the paper were all highlighted.

Qiao An was stunned. “We can use this to deliver important information.”

Huo Xiaoran took out his glasses from his briefcase and handed them to Qiao An. “Put them on.”

Qiao An put on her glasses. Only then did she realize that the two pigment colors were composed of many colors. There were a few lines of small words hidden in each big word.

Qiao An looked at Huo Xiaoran in surprise. “Isn’t this your parents’ code book?”

Huo Xiaoran nodded.

He said to Qiao An, “I’ve been studying the secret of my mother’s diary for the past few days. In the end, I successfully deciphered it.”

He said sadly, “Qiao An, I think I misunderstood my mother. According to my mother’s diary, she and my father were very loving. I think she knows something about my father being an informant.”

Qiao An was shocked. “Where can you tell?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “My mother taught me the code so diligently and even forced me to learn martial arts. I think she should have known long ago that her son will be very troubled for the rest of his life. Therefore, she was trying her best to improve my self-protection and awareness.”

Xiao Ran’s words reminded Qiao An of Ki Ki.

Wasn’t this the reason why she forced Ki Ki to learn martial arts?

Qiao An suddenly admired Xiaoran’s mother.

Xiaoran’s mother sensed that Ninth Master Lu was a hero walking on the edge of a knife, so she was willing to use her life’s grievances to achieve his legend.

Apart from admiration, Qiao An only felt that Xiaoran’s mother led a hard life.

Qiao An took off her glasses and returned them to Huo Xiaoran. Then, she walked out silently.

Xiao Ran quickly chased after her. “An’an, what’s wrong?”

He imprisoned Qiao An against the relief wall of the corridor. Qiao An was forced to look up at him.

“Brother Xiaoran, I don’t want to be someone like Xinping mummy. So, don’t learn from him…” She choked.

Huo Xiaoran was studying his parents’ communication so diligently. He probably already had an idea in his heart. He had to help his father out of his predicament no matter what.

Xiaoran was stunned.

Then, he pulled the terrified Qiao An into his arms. “An’an, don’t worry. I’ll definitely protect myself. I won’t give up on you at any time.”

He knew better than anyone the hardships of living as an orphan and a widow. How could he bear to abandon his beloved wife and cute children?

Qiao An murmured, “I know you can’t bear to. I’m just afraid that everything will be difficult.”

Qiao An had once seen Xiao Ming and Lu Qianqian crash into that dark world and watch them struggle to survive for the fetus in Qianqian’s womb. But in the end, they could not escape doom.

She was extremely terrified. She was afraid that Huo Xiaoran would fall in and never come out.
