Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce Novel - Chapter 602
602 Cold War
Qiao An said calmly, “I won’t argue with you anymore.”
Huo Xiaoran looked at her doubtfully. In the end, he took out his phone and ordered takeout. Then, he hugged Qiao An warmly and acted cute. “An’an, don’t be angry. I know I was wrong.”
Qiao An was silent.
Her rationality told her that Huo Xiaoran had a reason for making a mistake this time. She shouldn’t be relentless.
!!
However, when she thought of Huo Xiaoran and Lu Xiaoyun chatting happily, Qiao An still felt stifled.
However, her attitude towards Huo Xiaoran was not as resistant as before. It was neither cold nor hot.
Huo Xiaoran heaved a sigh of relief to be able to accompany Qiao An. However, when he saw Qiao An’s cold face, he was extremely sad and anxious.
Then, he carefully explained, “An’an, I’m sorry. I didn’t tell you in advance. I found clues about my father’s family. That Lu Xiaoyun is really the daughter of my father’s biological brother.”
“I know. I didn’t handle this well. Just forgive me once. I won’t dare to anger you again.”
Qiao An said coldly, “Huo Xiaoran, it’s not your fault. It’s my fault. I valued love too much. I thought that it would transcend family and life and death. I thought that the man I love would be like me and take me seriously at all times. There can’t be any accidents, not even for a moment. Look, is it because my standards for love are too ridiculous that I can’t tolerate you ignoring your wife and sending messages to girls you’ve never met?”
“You’re not wrong. In this world, there are many men who lower their wives’ status. Compared to their wives, perhaps some of them love their mothers and children more.”
Huo Xiaoran was anxious when he heard Qiao An’s mockery.
“An’an, is that what you think of me?”
Qiao An glared at him. “Yes,” she said firmly.
Huo Xiaoran choked with red eyes. “You don’t know how much I love you.”
Qiao Anning choked. “I know. I actually knew when you sacrificed yourself for your father. In your heart, kinship is very important.”
Huo Xiaoran trembled, and his handsome face turned pale.
Qiao An’s words made him understand something, but he didn’t seem to understand anything.
He fell back into his chair in defeat and hugged his head, painfully recalling everything that had happened four years ago.
At that time, he didn’t think too much about it. He just felt that his father was in danger and that he had to save him no matter what.
Little did he know that his choice had become a multiple-choice question for Qiao An. He had chosen his father and abandoned her and the children.
Huo Xiaoran had never realized how cruel that choice was to Qiao An. Now that he knew, it was useless.
No wonder Qiao An had such a huge reaction to his relationship with Lu Xiaoyun. It was because in her opinion, he would reopen the scar from four years ago if he valued kinship.
Huo Xiaoran suddenly slapped himself hard.
Qiao An looked at him indifferently. “You don’t have to blame yourself. It’s just a natural outpouring of emotion. There can’t be evenly matched love in this world. There’s always one party who will love more and love harder, and I’m that person.”
Huo Xiaoran looked at Qiao An and couldn’t say a word. However, tears welled up in his eyes.
After a long time, Qiao An suddenly said to Huo Xiaoran, “I thought about it and decided not to have this child. You know that I’m not in good health. Giving birth to a child is something worth risking my life for, but you don’t seem to have anything worth risking my life for.”
Huo Xiaoran felt as if someone had poured a basin of ice water over him from head to toe.
He staggered to his feet and walked weakly to Qiao An. He hugged her arms and said, “An’an, I didn’t know that my choice four years ago had traumatized you so much. I’m not as heartless as you say. I really love you. I know that ever since we met, you’ve been the one to give more unconditionally. I’ve always been the one to enjoy your sacrifice with a clear conscience. In the future, it will my turn to love you properly, okay? Don’t belittle our love, and don’t belittle my love for you. An’an, I really love you very much.”
He pulled her into his arms and set his head on her shoulder. Qiao An felt his body tremble.
But Qiao An was like a puppet, unconscious and passive as he hugged her.
She didn’t know why she said those messy words to him. Why did she tell him all the guesses in the secret corner of her heart?
“Brother Xiaoran, go back. Let me be alone. I seem to be… in a bad state.” Qiao An suddenly realized that her catharsis just now was actually very selfish.
It was also a very serious blow to Huo Xiaoran.
Huo Xiaoran suddenly said, “An’an, you’re pregnant. Your emotions aren’t too stable and you’ll let your imagination run wild. I’ll stay and accompany you.”
Realization dawned on Qiao An. She was venting her emotions so uncontrollably, like a schizophrenic patient. She knew that she couldn’t say the harsh words, but she still said them without care.
It was probably the change in the secretion of pregnancy hormones that made her sensitive and suspicious.
She sighed weakly.
She ignored Huo Xiaoran.
Huo Xiaoran was unprecedentedly humble and carefully served her.
But there was a mistake.
On his phone, Lu Xiaoyun would still continue to harass him. When he saw Lu Xiaoyun’s messages, Huo Xiaoran felt that the sky was about to collapse. He looked at Qiao An nervously and hurriedly explained, “An’an, I’ll delete her and block her now.”
Qiao An said, “She’s your sister. When you acknowledge your ancestors in the future, you’ll have to meet her eventually. It’s not good to delete her.”
Huo Xiaoran said, “Why should I acknowledge my ancestors? I’ve given up on this idea. An’an, I’ll protect you and the children in the future. I’ll ignore everyone.”
He held her hand and begged for mercy. “I don’t want other relatives. Really, An’an, don’t stop loving me.”
Qiao An pulled him to his feet. “Don’t take my words seriously.”
She didn’t like the fact that Huo Xiaoran valued others more than her, but she wouldn’t be so domineering and tyrannical that she wouldn’t let him contact his family.
Huo Xiaoran had overcorrected.
Huo Xiaoran said with lingering fear, “An’an, you’ve never been so angry. It can be seen that I really made you angry. I didn’t do well. I’ll definitely change in the future. Don’t be angry, okay? Being angry is not good for your health?”
