Huo Zhou said, “When Xiaoran was in university, he suffered from severe depression. He had was not able to work part-time and no source of income. It was Qiao An who kept transfusing blood to earn money and provided Xiaoran with living expenses.”

Mr. and Mrs. Huo were stunned. They felt a strong surge of affection for Qiao An.

Old Madam Huo sighed. “Why did they break up? What a pity.”

Mr. Huo sighed. “The fact that two people who love each other can’t get together in the end can only mean that one party doesn’t love each other deeply enough. No matter what, Xiaoran and Qiao An haven’t been able to get together after so many years, which means that you two are not fated. Xiaoran, people should look forward and not stay in the past.”

Huo Xiaoran nodded distractedly. “Yes, Grandpa.”

Old Madam Huo looked at her precious grandson’s dejected expression. She still remembered the scene of Huo Xiaoran siding with Qiao An and scolding the Lu family’s elders. She was very worried, afraid that Huo Xiaoran would repeat his mother’s tragedy.

With Huo Xiaoran’s care, Qiao An’s reputation increased greatly. Her new book signing event, film shoot, and filming all unfolded smoothly.

There was always trouble when one was popular.

When his ex-husband, Li Zecheng, saw Qiao An’s interview on television, he was completely shocked by her charm.

He stared blankly at Qiao An, who was sitting in front of the host. Qiao An’s every frown, smile, gesture, and exquisite makeup exuded charm everywhere.

Especially her eyes that were slightly raised after the plastic surgery. She had a faint smile on her face and her charming eyes were like silk, making him lose his soul.

Li Zecheng never dreamed that the beautiful but rustic Qiao An would become so charming after a few years.

His wife, Wei Xin, saw him looking at Qiao An on the screen in infatuation and was instantly jealous. She said sarcastically, “Hubby, how can this Qiao An still have the cheek to come back to the capital?”

Li Zecheng looked at Wei Xin, who was wearing home clothes and had no makeup on, and an inexplicable sense of indignance surged in his heart.

Three years ago, Wei Xin’s makeup was exquisite. Every day, she used his money to wear big-name clothes, carry big-name bags, and buy high-end cosmetics. As for his wife, Qiao An, she was a frumpy woman who wore cheap home clothes and washed his clothes and cooked for him every day. He liked Wei Xin’s innocence. He despised Qiao An’s dead fish-like dullness.

At that time, he had cheated on Wei Xin, and Qiao An had been causing trouble for him like a crazy woman. He hated Qiao An and couldn’t wait to divorce her.

Who knew that in just three years, Qiao An had become a successful intellectual woman? She was beautiful, elegant, confident, and generous. On the other hand, Wei Xin’s life revolved around their children and had no time to dress up. She was clearly not even thirty years old, but she looked old.

Li Zecheng felt a sense of dismay.

“The Internet has no memory. Who still remembers that she was once once down and out? They only know that she’s now a new star in the online literature world. She’s beautiful, writes books, and shoots movies,” Li Zecheng said in a low voice.

It reeked of longing.

Wei Xin stared at Li Zecheng. She had been with him for so long. How could the hidden meaning in his eyes and tone escape her eyes?

“Do you regret divorcing her now that she’s better?” Wei Xin was not someone who could hide her thoughts. She did not care if her husband was embarrassed. She was someone who wanted to vent her unhappiness.

Li Zecheng glared at her fiercely. “Don’t be unreasonable.”

Wei Xin was carrying the child in her arms. In the past few days, Li Zecheng had never taken care of the child when he was sick. Wei Xin was both a father and a mother and was exhausted. At this moment, Wei Xin was filled with grievances. She cried, “Hubby, you have to have a conscience. I gave birth to your children and raised them. That’s why my figure went out of shape and I became not as beautiful as before. You can’t despise me.”

Li Zecheng looked impatient. “Are you done fooling around? Aren’t you annoying?”

Wei Xin cried bitterly.

Li Zecheng’s mother was distraught. “Alright, alright. You two quarrel every day. If you really can’t live like this, just get a divorce.”

How could Wei Xin have the confidence to divorce Li Zecheng? She kept quiet out of fear.

The old man glanced at the dispirited Li Zecheng and snorted. “What did I say back then? It’s difficult to find a wife as smart and beautiful as Qiao An. You just didn’t believe me and insisted on looking for a wild woman outside.”

Wei Xin’s face turned pale.

Ever since she entered the house, the old man had never given her a good look. In the past, she had endured it and felt that it would be fine after a long time.

Now that she had given birth to a daughter and a son for the Li family, she thought that her status in the Li family had stabilized. In addition, the Li family was no longer the same as before. They were restricted by the Angel Group in all aspects and their development was very limited.

Wei Xin did not respect Old Master Li as much as before. Occasionally, she would talk back.

“Grandpa, Qiao An is very good; I’m sure that only your grandson is worthy of her.”

Third Madam was exasperated. “Wei Xin, what do you mean? Do you look down on Zecheng? Then leave. Our Li family won’t stop you.”

Third Madam’s mouth was vicious and she did not give her daughter-in-law any respect. “Why don’t you look at yourself? Your father embezzled and sent to prison. You’re a phoenix in trouble. Being able to marry Zecheng is your good fortune.Don’t be ungrateful.”

Wei Xin could not sit still anymore. She carried her youngest daughter and walked out.

The two-year-old immediately staggered after his mother, crying his heart out. “Mom, don’t go.”

Li Zecheng chased after them with a dark expression.

He was resentful about the current days. He and Qiao An had clearly been divorced for three years, but Qiao An still lingered in the Li family.

The old man liked Qiao An, his former granddaughter-in-law, and kept suppressing Wei Xin. Wei Xin felt wronged and ran away with their children. In due course, Third Madam also had an opinion of Wei Xin.

As for Li Zecheng, if he did not want a divorce, he could only be a peacemaker.

This was the current Li family. Everyone was having a very bad time.

“Wei Xin.” Li Zecheng caught up to Wei Xin and grabbed her hand. “Enough. You always run away from home. Is there a point?”

Wei Xin looked at him with tears in her eyes. “Hubby, I finally understand why Qiao An didn’t take revenge on me when I snatched you away that day. Instead, she generously arranged for me to be with you.”
