426 A Scumbag’s Atonement, Uncle’s Double Standards

Qiao An lay in Huo Xiaoran’s arms. After escaping danger, she could clearly feel the pain in various places on her body.

Huo Xiaoran’s heart ached when he saw Qiao An grimacing and enduring the pain. His eyes turned red again and again, and his voice choked.

“An’an, endure it a little longer. I’ll bring you to the hospital immediately.”

Li Zecheng lay at the side and looked at Huo Xiaoran’s sorrowful appearance. He couldn’t help but recall the scene of Qiao An being kidnapped after marrying him. What did he do then? He ignored the kidnapper’s extortion messages and was numb to Qiao An’s pain. Compared to Huo Xiaoran’s loyalty today, he was so heartless to Qiao An.

!!

He finally understood how much of a disaster it was for him to use deception to break up Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An and marry her.

It was no wonder that even after Qiao An married him, she racked her brains to leave an heir for Huo Xiaoran. Their love was unstoppable.

Huo Xiaoran carefully picked Qiao An up and stood up. Just as he turned around, he felt a gun barrel pointed at his head.

Huo Xiaoran’s entire body froze. At that moment, his blood froze. God knew what kind of life he had lived for half a day to save Qiao An. Now that he had finally saved Qiao An, he had finally survived in a daze. However, this sudden danger made his heart sink to the bottom.

The danger this time seemed irresolvable.

When the bullet was fired, Huo Xiaoran’s eyes widened, and his vision was white.

Suddenly, Li Zecheng pounced over and used his body to block Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An.

Huo Xiaoran was forced to lean back. The bullet entered Li Zecheng’s back, and Qiao An successfully dodged this calamity.

Outside the door, the police surged in and subdued Rosa.

Li Ze’en and Huang Yushu were saved. Huang Yushu crawled to the injured Li Zecheng and cried bitterly. “Zecheng, my son. You can’t die.”

“Brother!” Li Ze’en also cried.

Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran looked at their savior, Li Zecheng. Their faces were filled with gratitude and shock.

“Li Zecheng, why did you sacrifice yourself to save me… You will die.” Qiao An’s face was covered in tears.

Li Zecheng said weakly, “Uncle, Qiao An, I am sorry for back then… If I hadn’t been young and insensible and separated you, Qiao An wouldn’t have encountered those demons. You guys could have lived a peaceful life. I’m sorry.”

Huo Xiaoran replied, “Alright, alright. On account of your saving Qiao An, I forgive you. Shut up and save your strength. Your wound isn’t in the fatal area. It can still be saved. Don’t aggravate it.”

Huang Yushu and Li Ze’en heaved a sigh of relief when they heard Xiaoran’s words.

Soon, the medical staff arrived with a stretcher. They carried Li Zecheng and Qiao An and rushed to Jinghang Hospital.

Huo Xiaoran undoubtedly had to follow Qiao An. In the ambulance, he had been paying close attention to Qiao An’s mental state. In order to prevent Qiao An from going into a coma, he kept talking to her.

“An’an, the children miss you very much. After they heard that you were in danger, they all clamored to save you. They were all throwing tantrums at home when I didn’t let them come.”

Qiao An’s sleepy eyes perked up when she heard about the children. She blamed Huo Xiaoran, “Who asked… you to tell… them? Don’t scare them.”

Huo Xiaoran only wanted to stimulate Qiao An’s survival instinct. He kept saying, “An’an, I’m not as brave as the children. Especially Ki Ki. He’s simply a man. He cried and shouted that he wanted to come with me to save you. I had no choice but to lock him in a small room.”

Qiao An’s heart ached for the child. “Hurry up and let the child out. Don’t… imprison him.”

A doctor reminded Huo Xiaoran, “Doctor Li, your nephew’s condition isn’t too optimistic.”

Huo Xiaoran glanced at the sleepy Li Zecheng and roared, “Li Zecheng, open your eyes. If you sleep again, you’ll really fall asleep for good.”

Li Zecheng looked at him speechlessly. “I didn’t… sleep. Uncle, you… were so gentle to your wife and… so fierce to me. After all… I’m your savior.”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Li Zecheng, as long as you can survive, I promise you that I’ll help you revive the Li Kang Corporation.”

Li Zecheng’s eyes widened. “Don’t lie to me.”

“When have I ever lied to you?”

Soon, the ambulance arrived at Jinghang Hospital. After the medical staff pushed Li Zecheng and Qiao An into the intensive care unit, Huo Xiaoran changed into sterile clothes and accompanied Qiao An into the intensive care unit.

After a day and night of soul-stirring emergency treatment, Li Zecheng was out of danger. As for Qiao An, her injuries were lighter than Li Zecheng’s. Half a day later, she was transferred from the ICU to the ward.

Huo Xiaoran’s tense heart finally relaxed.

He held Qiao An’s hand and said emotionally, “An’an, you have to stay with me from now on. Do you know how afraid I was after you were in danger?”

Qiao An smiled gently, her smile brimming with happiness.

She comforted Huo Xiaoran gently. “I promised you that I would accompany you until your hair turns white.”

Huo Xiaoran kissed her hand. “I heard that you deliberately thought of a way to delay the bandits from killing you. An’an, I knew you would wait for me.”

Qiao An’s eyes glistened with tears. “Brother Xiaoran, you came so quickly. I thought I would have to experience a lot of pain and despair before I could see the light. I didn’t expect you to save me so quickly. Thank you for taking me to heart.”

“Silly, you’re my treasure. Of course, I have to do everything I can to save you.”

The couple sighed with emotion over Qiao An’s survival.

Qiao An told Huo Xiaoran everything about her encounter. There was only one thing she had yet to mention, and that was the sensitive identity of the kidnapper’s boss. She did not dare to tell Huo Xiaoran in public in the hospital, so Huo Xiaoran was especially angry at the mention of that man.

“I’ll shoot him if I see him again,” he said.

Qiao An was speechless. Her condition had improved slightly, so she suggested visiting Li Zecheng.

Huo Xiaoran hesitated for a moment, clearly a little jealous.

Qiao An smiled. “I used to hate him for breaking us up. It made me so helpless. But that day, he risked his life to save me. No matter how much resentment I had, it dissipated.”

“Besides…” Qiao An recalled how Li Ze’en and Huang Yushu had defended her when the bandits interrogated her that day. She was more or less touched.

“That day, Ze’en was clearly afraid. Third Sister-in-law was clearly concerned about her children. However, when the bandits interrogated them about my identity, they didn’t expose me, so I successfully stalled for time. Brother Xiaoran, I think they were also using their actions to compensate for the harm they caused me.”
