Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce Novel - Chapter 584

584 Repaying Regrets, Split

Because Qiao An was pregnant, Huo Xiaoran immediately changed his work schedule. He stayed at home almost all day to accompany An’an. A few days later, An’an sensed that something was wrong and asked, “Brother Xiaoran, why aren’t you working at the company?”

Qiao An was worried that if the indifferent Huo Xiaoran met the ambitious Li Zecheng, the Angel Group might not be able to survive.

Huo Xiaoran hugged her and sincerely told her about the knot in his heart that had been there for many years. “An’an, when you gave birth to Angel and the others, your husband wasn’t by your side and made you suffer so much. This time, I want to make it up to you. I want to be a qualified husband and a qualified father. Don’t deprive me of my rights, okay?”

Qiao An smiled and stroked his aggrieved child-like handsome face. “Brother Xiaoran, I can understand that you want to take care of my feelings, but hasn’t the Angel Group encountered a predicament recently? I’m unwilling to give the Angel Group to a bastard like Li Zecheng. After all, the Angel Group is the witness of our love. Help me get it back, okay?”

!!
Huo Xiaoran looked up into Qiao An’s eyes, his handsome eyes filled with affection and gentleness. “An’an, then I’ll try my best to work at home. I promise you, I’ll definitely take back the Angel Group.”

Qiao An nodded.

Li Kang Corporation had been in the limelight recently.

After Li Zecheng left the Angel Group, he devoted himself to the construction of the Li Kang Group. In addition, the Soaring Cloud Group had already been used by Li Zecheng. With the support of the Soaring Cloud Group, the Li Kang Group immediately welcomed the peak of a huge explosion.

It was more successful than ever.

Li Zecheng’s value soared, and Li Zecheng became an inspirational figure that people in the capital talked about. Perhaps the Li family had bribed many notices and occupied the trending topics. The notice introduced Li Zecheng’s motivational story of turning over a new leaf and rising from the bottom.

People’s memories seemed to be very short. They had forgotten what kind of street rat Li Zecheng was back then. Now, people only remembered his legend of rising from the bottom.

Li Zecheng and the daughter of a prestigious family were also happy to see the outcome.

The day of the banquet that Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran had booked was also a good day for Li Zecheng and the daughter of a prestigious family to get married.

Li Zecheng entrusted his sister, Li Ze’en, to personally send the invitation over. When Qiao An saw this overlapping time, she was dumbfounded.

After all, Li Zecheng and Huo Xiaoran had a common growth trajectory. Most of their relatives and friends overlapped. If Li Zecheng’s wedding collided with her banquet, wouldn’t it be making things difficult for the guests?

Instead of making things difficult for the guests, it was more like a competition between Li Zecheng and Huo Xiaoran.

It was a contest of strength and charm.

There was always one side that withered. From the looks of it, Xiao Ran might be completely defeated.

However, Qiao An accepted the invitation calmly and looked at Li Ze’en steadily.

Her brother had betrayed her and Xiaoran. Now, she could not understand Li Ze’en.

“What do you think about your brother?” Qiao An probed.

Ze’en said in embarrassment, “Sister An’an, my brother actually doesn’t want to break up with you. It’s true that he likes you. All these years, he’s tried to please you humbly, but you’ve never been tempted by him. If you can’t warm your heart towards his efforts, my brother’s heart will turn cold bit by bit. Sister An’an, forgive my brother. He’s too afraid of being poor. That kind of undignified life is his nightmare. Therefore, it wasn’t easy for him to make a comeback. He will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal.”

Qiao An said, “Ze’en, so you also think what your brother did is excusable. Is that what you mean?”

Li Ze’en was slightly stunned. Qiao An’s voice was very soft, and her eyes were very calm, but they were wrapped in something that made people inexplicably afraid.

“Sister An’an… I…”

“Li Ze’en, I don’t think you’re a child anymore. You must know what it means to be ungrateful and the difference between right and wrong. Unfortunately, after teaching you for a few years, you were easily blinded by your brother’s wealth. In that case, don’t come to work in my detective agency tomorrow. I think you’re no longer suitable to stay here.”

Li Ze’en lowered her head. She was conflicted.

However, it had not been easy for her brother to rise. She had seen how difficult his life had been in the past few years.

She didn’t want to leave the detective agency or make things difficult for her brother. Eventually, she abandoned Qiao An.

Li Ze’en apologized to Qiao An with tears in her eyes. “Sister Qiao An, he’s my brother. I can’t abandon him. I’m sorry, I…”

Qiao An said, “You don’t have to apologize to me. Ze’en, you didn’t choose your brother, and you didn’t turn your back on me. You chose to give up being upright and selfless.”

Li Ze’en glared at Qiao An as if she could not accept such a conclusion.

Qiao An said, “In the years you’ve worked in the detective agency, which case hasn’t been a contest of humanity? Do you know better than anyone whether it’s black, white, or gray? And you still chose your brother?”

“Ze’en, we’re friends. Let me give you a piece of advice. Retribution will come. Leave.” With that, Qiao An left without looking at Li Ze’en again.

Li Ze’en looked at Qiao An and tears fell.

Her feelings for Qiao An were complicated.

Qiao An was her teacher, her close friend, and the morning star in her life. But now she was forced to choose a path that ran counter to Qiao An’s.

No, she didn’t want this. She had no choice.

She just didn’t want to give up on Li Zecheng, and she didn’t want to hurt Qiao An.

But Qiao An forced her to choose between her and Li Zecheng.

Her intuition told her that the detective agency was going to attack Li Zecheng. Otherwise, Qiao An would not have chased her away so resolutely.

Qiao An must be worried that she would leak the information to Li Zecheng.

Li Ze’en packed her things in a daze and left the detective agency.

Her colleagues at the detective agency looked at her with regret.

“Ze’en, are you leaving the detective agency?” A colleague went forward to show his concern.

Li Ze’en nodded.

“Why? Didn’t we take the oath back then? As long as we stay true to the detective agency and always pursue justice and the truth, we won’t be fired.”

Li Ze’en said awkwardly, “I’m not worthy of staying here anymore.”

At this moment, Qiao An walked in and announced to the employee, “The next target we’re going to investigate is closely related to Li Ze’en. Therefore, she’s not suitable to stay here.”

The employees of the detective agency revealed surprised expressions. However, they all understood that the person Qiao An wanted to investigate was definitely Li Zecheng, who had been in the limelight recently.
