Qiao An slowly placed her hand on it. At this moment, she realized that Mrs. Lu was wearing two transparent gloves.

Qiao An suddenly retracted her hand. She stood up and said to Mrs. Lu, “I have to go to the bathroom.”

Mrs. Lu ordered domineeringly, “Draw it before you go.”

“I can’t. I can’t hold it.” Jo Ann clutched her stomach and left.

After taking a few steps, she suddenly turned around and saw Mrs. Lu putting the syringe reserved for her into a plastic bag and throwing it into the trash can. Then she took off her gloves and put on new ones.

A chill ran down Qiao An’s spine.

It seemed that Jinghang Hospital was not a safe place. Qiao An returned to the ward and quickly packed her bag. Then she went to the attending physician’s office and insisted that he get her discharge certificate.

The doctor, however, refused to give Qiao An a hospital discharge. “Qiao An, your blood test report isn’t in yet. We won’t let you leave until we can guarantee your safety.”

Terrified, Qiao An said, “I don’t want to do a blood test because I’ve heard of patients who were accidentally infected with those disgraceful diseases while their blood was being drawn.”

The doctor laughed. “Qiao An, the chances of that happening are minimal. You can’t refuse a blood test because of that infinitesimal chance.”

Qiao An said slyly, “Doctor, you should know how I came to be hospitalized. I’m afraid that someone in your Jinghang Hospital is in cahoots with the murderer and intends to murder me.

“I won’t be willing to cooperate unless you can guarantee my safety one hundred percent.”

The doctor looked slightly startled.

“Qiao An, you’ve got a vivid imagination. You really could be a screenwriter,” the doctor teased.

Qiao An said, “I’m a screenwriter.”

Qiao An took advantage of the situation. “I even suspect that you’re in cahoots with them if you’re so insistent that I do a blood test?”

The doctor felt that Qiao An was being unreasonable and was a little angry. “Qiao An, the hospital has its rules. Do a complete checkup. As long as we can ensure your health, we’ll naturally let you go.”

Qiao An said, “You want me to draw blood? Unless you sign a security contract. If anything happens to me while I’m drawing blood, you’ll have to take all the consequences.”

Unable to stand Qiao An’s goading, the doctor angrily opened a drawer, took out a discharge certificate, and quickly issued it to her.

“Qiao An, leave if you want.”

Qiao An picked up her discharge papers and left, beaming.

Behind her, the doctor sighed wistfully. Qiao An rushed through the discharge surgery and couldn’t wait to get home.

She hadn’t seen her children in two or three days, and she missed them dearly.

When they returned to Huaman City, the nanny had already sent the three children over.

“Mommy.”

The children lunged at her together.

When Qiao An knelt down to hug the children, she was pushed to the ground by three brats.

“Mommy.”

The children climbed off their mommy and reached out to pull Qiao An up.

“Mommy, where have you been? Why haven’t you come to see us for so many days?” The angel wheedled. “I miss you so much.”

Qiao An wrapped her arms tightly around the three children. The thought of how close she had come to not seeing them left her with tears of fear.

“Mommy, did someone bully you?” Ki Ki saw his mother’s moist eyes and his protectiveness exploded. “Tell me. Your son will help you fix him.”

Qiao An pinched the angel’s cute face and scratched her son’s straight little nose.

Qiao An said, “Mom just misses you guys so much.”

Joey hugged her mommy and patted Qiao An’s head gently like a little adult. “Mommy, don’t be sad.”

Qiao An ushered the children into the house.

Just as She were about to make an ambitious meal for the children to reward them, the doorbell rang.

Their house usually had very few visitors, except for Qiao He.

Naturally, the children thought of their uncle.

“Uncle is here.” Angel Qiao was soft and friendly. She immediately ran over to open the door.

Before opening the door, they remembered his mother’s teachings. “Who is it?”

Outside the door, Xiao Yue immediately smiled when she heard this soft voice. “Baby, it’s me. I’m Auntie Xiao Yue.”

Angel Qiao raised her voice and asked her mother, “Is it Auntie Xiao Yue? Should we let her in?”

Qiao An slowed in the kitchen at the sound of Angel’s voice. Then after a moment’s deliberation, she said to him, “Angel, open the door for Aunt Yueyue.”

Only then did Angel Qiao tiptoe to open the door for Xiao Yue.

After the door opened, Angel Qiao diligently handed her beautiful slippers.

Qiao An came out of the kitchen, her hands still sticky with oil. She didn’t exchange pleasantries with Xiao Yue, but she reminded her repeatedly, “Yueyue, no matter what you see or hear later, you have to keep your mouth shut.”

Xiao Yue didn’t understand why Qiao An was always so careful. However, when she thought about how Qiao An was always assaulted, she felt sympathy and understanding for her cautious personality.

When she entered the house and saw the little boy sitting on the sofa, Xiao Yue was stunned.

This child looked extraordinary. Although the child’s childishness and immaturity had not faded, the coldness and pride between his brows were extremely similar to a person.

Other than this elegant charm, his eyebrows and face shape were extremely similar to him.

“Sister Qiao An, why… why does he look exactly like my cousin?” Xiao Yue was dumbfounded.

Qiao An gave her a knowing, unspoken look.

Xiao Yue was so shocked that her mouth opened into a standard circle.

“He’s my cousin’s…”

Before she could finish, Qiao An pressed a greasy hand to her mouth.

“Yueyue, I need help in the kitchen. Why don’t you help me?” Qiao An dragged her into the kitchen.

Xiao Yue’s mouth was covered in oil, and she was so disgusted that she wanted to vomit.

Qiao An threw a tissue at her. Xiao Yue wiped her mouth haphazardly and asked Qiao An excitedly, “Sister Qiao An, he’s my cousin Huo Xiaoran’s child, right?”

Qiao An did not intend to hide it from Xiao Yue anymore because she had already thought of sending the child back to Xiaoran.

Qiao An nodded silently.

Xiao Yue’s guess was confirmed and she was stunned again.

She immediately took out her phone and found Huo Xiaoran’s number, only to see Qiao An staring at her with death in her eyes.

Only then did Xiao Yue realize that she had been too excited. This kind of thing should be left to Qiao An to decide.

She closed the phone resentfully, but looked at Qiao An with confusion. “Sister Qiao An, why did you hide it from my cousin?”

Qiao An’s face darkened. “I used to hate him and not want him to have a child for nothing. Now it’s because…”

With a vicious woman like Lu Mo by his side, it was not safe for the children to go there.
