Chapter 275: A Complete Scumbag
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
He’d never seen Qiao An so helpless, so broken. But this silly girl hid her emotions so well when she was so sad. He almost believed her.
Qiao An quickly wiped away her tears, then turned away in embarrassment, unable to look at him.
Huo Xiaoran suddenly smiled. “You can’t bear to part with me?”
He opened the wound easily, and Qiao An stopped pretending. Her almond-shaped eyes widened as she glared at him. “Do you feel very happy? There’s a silly woman who loves you with all her heart!”
Huo Xiaoran pouted. “Yes, but you can be more silly.”
He supposed that Qiao An was too proud. She clearly loved him, but she was too restrained. In the eyes of the secular world, her love was too predictable.
She valued the word etiquette too much. So her love was cautious. And because she was careful, he, who was careless, could not feel her love.
“An’an.” Xiao Ran took out a 3 key cards from the pocket of her windbreaker and forcefully stuffed it into her hand. Qiao An’s gaze glanced at the number written on the key cards and her expression darkened.
“I don’t want them,” she said stubbornly.
Huo Xiaoran held her hand and did not allow her to reject him. He stared into her eyes, his bewitching fox eyes covered with a layer of affection.
“An’an.” When he spoke again, his voice was soft and gentle. “This was our deal. I’ll give you four properties in the Heaven Imperial Garden in exchange for the reason why you married Li Zecheng.There’s also a property that I’ll temporarily borrow.”
Qiao An whispered, “It’s too expensive. I can’t take it. Besides, I’ve changed my mind.”
Originally, she wanted the four houses in the same district to be given to the three children and for her and Huo Xiaoran to live in. It was for the sake of the family to stay together for a long time and share their happiness.
At that time, she actually thought that as long as she exposed Lu Mo’s true colors, Huo Xiaoran would be with her. Then their family could reunite.
But now she knew that plans were not nearly as fast as changes.
Huo Xiaoran actually agreed to Lu Mo’s proposal. They were about to get married, and if she shamelessly interfered in their relationship, she would only be criticized by everyone.
Qiao An suddenly looked up at Huo Xiaoran bravely and said, “You’ll be a married man soon. It’s better for you and I not to interact anymore lest Mrs. Huo misunderstand.”

She gritted her teeth and called out with difficulty, “Mr. Huo, my life is already in a sorry state. Can you withdraw from my life so that I can spend the rest of my life like an ordinary person? I just want to raise my children safely and smoothly.”
Her calling him “Mr. Huo” really pierced Huo Xiaoran’s heart.
He suddenly pulled Qiao An into his arms domineeringly and told her sadly, “Qiao An, since you’re so sad about me marrying Lu Mo, why don’t you try to redeem me?”
Qiao An broke free of his embrace with a hint of resentment. “I’m sorry. I’m not good at taking food from other people’s mouths.” She knew that she hated mistresses, but he had put her in the position of one. She was indescribably disappointed in Huo Xiaoran.
Huo Xiaoran didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “You’re not good at snatching food from others? Then are you good at being honest?”
Qiao An looked at Huo Xiaoran in confusion.
The Huo Xiaoran today made her feel very strange.
He used to be a man of his words and deeds. He was a man with better morals than his facial features, but today, he was always talking nonsense. He was a complete scumbag. She was puzzled.
Huo Xiaoran said, “An’an, tell me everything you know, okay? I’ll take revenge for you in the future.”
Qiao An stared at him in shock…
After a moment of hesitation, she said, “I don’t have evidence for many things. And you don’t necessarily believe me?”
Huo Xiaoran said firmly, “I’ll believe anything you say.”
Qiao An stared at him, stunned.
She suddenly felt that she had taken many paths that she should not have taken and experienced many bumps that she could have avoided.
She could only blame herself for wrapping herself up too tightly in the past. For not trying to believe him.
“Silly, why are you crying?” Huo XIaoran was at a loss.
“Crybaby,” he said dotingly.
Then he took the luggage from her and held her hand. “Let’s go. I’ll show you your new home.”
Qiao An was dragged along like a puppet at his mercy.
Actually, her mind was not clear for a moment. It was a mess, and she was at a loss about what to do in the future. She had no idea how to return to her relationship with Huo Xiaoran.
She should have cut ties with Huo Xiaoran, but she couldn’t bear to. This was because she could vaguely feel that the person Huo Xiaoran loved wasn’t Lu Mo, but her.
However, she was puzzled. How could Huo Xiaoran agree to Lu Mo’s proposal while loving her?
What exactly did he mean by wanting to avenge her?
Could it be that he was going to seduce Lu Mo?
The three children followed behind with their short legs. How could they keep up with Huo Xiaoran’s long legs? They were so tired that they were panting.
“Uncle Huo, can you walk slower? I’m so tired,” Angel Qiao wheedled.
Huo Xiaoran was extremely gentle to the children. He stopped in place and waited for the children to follow.
Huo Xiaoran brought Qiao An to one of the villas. When Qiao An saw the words “Passion Garden”, she immediately shook her head in resistance.
The name didn’t suit the children.
Huo Xiaoran said, “You don’t like it? You can name it again.”
Qiao An glanced at Joey and blurted, “Dan Xin Court, I think.”
“Dan Xin?” Huo Xiaoran frowned.
Even someone like him could only think of heroic words like “Iron Blood Loyal Heart” and “Completely loyal”.
He narrowed his eyes as he studied Qiao An. “Why did you name it Dan Xin? Are you addicted to wuxia novels?”
Qiao An jerked back to the present and smiled. “I was just saying.”
Huo Xiaoran said, “Aren’t you going to manage this house yourself?”
Qiao An said, “There are a few houses, right? Leave this one to Joey.”
Huo Xiaoran glanced at Joey. Strangely, among the three children, his feelings for Joey were the calmest.
He couldn’t tell why.
Perhaps it was because the paternity test had revealed that Joey wasn’t his daughter and tainted his wonderful first love for Qiao An.
Perhaps it was because Joey didn’t look like Qiao An.
After the children entered the villa, they happily went to the courtyard to play.
Only Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An were sitting on the sofa in the living room. Huo Xiaoran looked at Qiao An quietly, as if waiting for her to be honest with him.
But Qiao An fell silent.
“Why? Are you not going to treat me well?” Huo Xiaoran asked.
Qiao An said, “I don’t know where to start.”
Huo Xiaoran adjusted his comfortable sitting posture and said, “I have time to listen to your confession. So, take your time.”
