Chapter 81 - False Revenge, True Emotions Revealed

The old man’s face instantly turned pale.

He stood up shakily and said excitedly, “Qiao An, are you threatening us?” The old man’s voice was filled with anger.

Qiao An said, “Grandpa, I’ve always respected you because I think you’re impartial. But today, you’ve disappointed me. In order to protect your unfilial grandson, you actually asked me to give up legal means to protect my own interests. Let me ask you, Grandpa, without the protection of the law, can you give me justice?”

The old man was speechless. His old face was gloomy, and it was obvious that he was unhappy.

Li Zecheng roared, “Qiao An, who allowed you to speak to Grandpa like this?”

Qiao An then said to the old man, “Grandpa, I’m grateful for your love for me. However, your grandson and I don’t see eye to eye and are destined to part ways. I’m not blessed with Grandpa’s long-term love, so I will remember our time together forever. Goodbye.”

After saying that, Qiao An bowed deeply to the old man. Then, she went into the house to pack her luggage and left without looking back.

The old man was shocked by Qiao An’s firmness. Among all his children and grandchildren, none of them were as hot-blooded as Qiao An.

Although Qiao An’s personality gave him a headache, it also made the old man, who was a soldier, admire her.

The old man was traditional and believed that having many children was a blessing. He was afraid that Qiao An would really abort the child and was flustered.

However, Li Zecheng was still making sarcastic remarks. “This Qiao An is simply too outrageous.”

The old man glared at Li Zecheng and said resentfully, “B*stard, b*stard, do you want to lose your biological son for Wei Xin?”

“You, go find that vixen immediately and get back all the assets that you transferred to her after your marriage. I want to see this money before the sun comes out tomorrow morning. Otherwise, don’t ever step into this house.”

Li Zecheng fell into a panic.

“Get lost.” The old man was so angry that he raised his walking stick to hit him.

Li Zecheng quickly ran out the door.

After Qiao An left the Li family’s villa, she dragged her luggage to Loco’s house.

When Loco saw Qiao An, she immediately gave her a big hug. Then the two sisters curled up on the sofa and chatted freely.

Loco said, “I guess you and your in-laws fell out?”

Qiao An smiled. “Smart. You guessed right.”

Loco guessed excitedly, “I’m guessing that you want to sue that vixen. In order to protect your scumbag husband’s face, the Li family insisted that you withdraw the lawsuit. And with your personality, you can’t change your mind, so you went against them.”

Qiao An said, “That’s a lawyer for you. Good reasoning, good logic. All of it.”

Loco hugged Qiao An’s arm and became even more excited. “You broke up with the scumbag. We should prepare wine to party. Wait, I’ll get the wine. We’ll get drunk tonight.”

Qiao An looked troubled. She pointed at her stomach and stopped Loco. “Coco, I can’t drink.”

Luo Ke was puzzled. “Is your gastritis acting up?”

Qiao An shook her head and told the truth. “Coco, I have a baby.”

Rocco’s expression darkened. She even looked at Qiao An angrily and reprimanded her, “Qiao An, have you forgotten why you jumped off the building? Why did you still sleep with that ingrate Li Zecheng? You’re even giving birth to his child. Why are you so annoying?”

Qiao An murmured, “Coco, this child isn’t Li Zecheng’s.”

Loco stared at Qiao An in disbelief.

Then, she laughed bitterly and said, “Haha, you cheated on that scumbag Li Zecheng? Qiao An, you’re really fierce. You’re simply my idol. You should take revenge on Li Zecheng like this.”

Loco suddenly thought of a serious question. “But who’s the father?”

Qiao An stared into Loco’s eyes. Loco had been her classmate from elementary school to high school. Loco was also her father’s student. Her family was poor when she was young, so her father often brought Loco to his house and let her and Qiao An squeeze into a bed and share a dish. Therefore, Qiao An and Loco were closer than sisters.

Loco was grateful. She had treated Qiao An well all these years.

Qiao An was straightforward and kind, which was why Loco liked her.

She didn’t want to hide her matter from her good sister.

She hesitated for a moment before saying, “Coco, the child in my stomach is—Dr. Li’s.”

Loco was overjoyed. “Dr. Li saved your life. When you were in the hospital, I already felt that he liked you. Otherwise, how could he take such good care of you? Do you know that every time I visit you, I see other patients with disheveled hair and dirty faces, but you’re always clean and tidy. At that time, I thought how good it would be if you married Li Xiaoran and not Li Zecheng.”

“Tell me quickly, how did you two get together?” Loco was excited.

A bitter smile spread across Qiao An’s face. “He was drunk that day. He pushed me down when I helped him back to his room. Something happened between us that shouldn’t have happened.”

“This is a godsend,” Loco said. “I knew that Dr. Li has ulterior motives for treating you well.”

A trace of haze flashed across Qiao An’s eyes. She said in a low voice, “You only know one part of the story. How can there be good things in this world for no reason? Li Xiaoran approached me just to take revenge on me.”

“Revenge on you?” Loco was agitated and angry. “Why would he want revenge on you? Could it be that he helped his wretched nephew take revenge on you?”

“To take revenge on me for abandoning him back then.” Qiao An lowered her head, tears already welling up in her eyes.

Loco was getting more confused. “When did you abandon him?”

Qiao An looked up, his eyes already filled with tears.

“Coco, Li Xiaoran is the Thunderbolt Blade.”

Rocco was dumbfounded.

After a long time, Loco recovered from her shock. “Heavens, what’s going on?”

Qiao An told Loco everything about Li Zecheng pretending to be Li Xiaoran and her heartless rejection of Li Xiaoran.

After hearing this, Loco was dumbfounded.

“Fate makes fools of people.” Finally, she sighed helplessly.

Qiao An’s eyes lit up with ruthlessness. “It’s not a joke. It’s clearly a human heart.”

Loco was also angry. “Li Zecheng spent so much effort to get you, but he didn’t cherish you. I have to punish such a man.”

Qiao An said, “Don’t worry. I’ll definitely ruin his reputation in this lawsuit.”

Loco said worriedly, “With the Li family’s influence in the capital, I’m afraid they will apply for a secret trial for this lawsuit.”

Qiao An said, “I won’t let them. I’ll make sure the entire city knows.”
