Chapter 324: Uncle’s Happiness, Nephew’s Heartsche

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When the car drove into the Li family’s villa, the atmosphere at home was especially solemn.

The butler’s face was gloomy as he swept the fallen leaves in the courtyard. Seeing Huo Xiaoran’s car enter the house, the butler was stunned.

“Is the fourth Young Master back?” the butler murmured in disbelief.

Huo Xiaoran parked the car in the parking lot and quickly got out. Then, he walked around the car and helped Qiao An out.

Qiao An was still nervous. When Huo Xiaoran drove, she watched the road nervously the entire time. Even when he stopped the car, the nervousness did not recede.

Huo Xiaoran held her face and comforted her. “An’an, my hand has recovered.”

Qiao An looked at him in surprise. “Really?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “I didn’t tremble along the way.”

Qiao An was thrilled. “Does that mean you can be a doctor again?”

When Huo Xiaoran saw the smile on Qiao An’s face, he couldn’t help but pull her into his arms and hug her tightly.

Having seen Lu Mo’s greed, Qiao An’s pure heart and few desires made him feel that it was rare.

“I don’t want to be a doctor anymore. Being a doctor pays too little. I have a wife and children now. I have to earn a lot of money so that you and the children can live a carefree life.”

These were Huo Xiaoran’s heartfelt words. When he was young, he only fought for his ideals. Now, he felt that nothing was more important than giving his family a stable and happy life.

However, Qiao An knew how much Huo Xiaoran loved his career. She encouraged him to do what he liked.

“Brother Xiaoran, no matter what you do, I’ll support your choice. But don’t think too much about me and the children. Actually, we won’t spend much money.”

Huo Xiaoran said, “No, I can’t let you suffer. What other women have, my An’an can’t lose out.”

Qiao An was speechless.

Qiao An held his hand and they laced their fingers as they walked into the villa.

In the villa, the juniors of the Li family gathered.

Huo Xiaoran’s brothers, including Li Tingting, were all present. They discussed Old Master Li’s funeral.

The eldest said, “Dad’s illness has reached a point of no return. You heard the doctor’s advice. He told us to prepare for Dad’s funeral. Do you have any ideas?”

The second brother said, “Once Dad falls, how will he distribute his shares and assets? I’m afraid we’ll have to ask the old man to make a will.”

The third son said, “Logically speaking, while the old man is still conscious, asking him to make a will is the top priority. But I’m afraid the old man will think too much. Who will mention this to him?”

At this moment, the butler led Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An into the house.

“Young masters, Fourth Young Master is back.”

As soon as the butler finished speaking, everyone in the room looked over.

Seeing Huo Xiaoran already surprised them. Seeing Qiao An beside him, especially Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An’s interlocked hands, the expressions of everyone in the house changed.

“Xiaoran, you and Qiao An…” Third Brother, Li Zecheng’s father, Qiao An’s ex-father-in-law, was instantly furious. He pointed at Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An angrily and was so furious that he could not speak.

Huo Xiaoran raised Qiao An’s hand and announced solemnly, “I brought Qiao An back today to tell everyone that I’m with An’an.”

Li Zecheng’s face turned green. “Huo Xiaoran, Qiao An, how could you get together? Aren’t you embarrassing our Li family? Where are your morals? Qiao An, you were originally my wife, but now you want to be my aunt. How can I bear it?”

Qiao An raised her lips and was about to speak when Huo Xiaoran tightened his grip on her hand.

Qiao An looked at Huo Xiaoran and saw him looking at her gently. Even though he didn’t say anything, his gaze gave her an incomparably strong sense of security.

Qiao An immediately understood that Huo Xiaoran didn’t need her to fight alone against everyone in the Li family like before.

As expected, Huo Xiaoran said, “An’an, remember, I’ll protect you. You don’t have to live so hard.”

These words of love entered Li Zecheng’s ears, which was no different from a slap. After all, when Qiao An was with him, he had never protected her and had only done things to hurt her.

Huo Xiaoran walked up to Li Zecheng gloomily and reprimanded with a dark expression, “Didn’t you read the essay online?”

“The netizens are calling you a scumbag for lying to your uncle’s girlfriend. And you have the cheek to call me immoral?”

“The eyes of the crowd are bright. Li Zecheng, I didn’t expect you to still be unrepentant.”

Li Zecheng’s expression was ugly. “Hmph, I’m not in the mood to pay attention to those boring topics online.”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Then now that An’an has returned to my side, shouldn’t you address her as Aunt?”

Li Zecheng glanced at Qiao An and saw that she was wearing a luxurious high-end dress that accentuated her graceful figure and indifferent temperament. She was really beautiful.

She looked peaceful and her eyes bright. She was a completely different person from when she married him.

At that moment, Li Zecheng suddenly felt ashamed of himself. He used to think that Qiao An had married him because he was out of her league. Now, he knew that he had stolen her time and pulled her into his ordinary world. Without him, Qiao An could have lived so well.

But he could not bring himself to call her aunt.

He’d deluded himself into thinking that she was still the same Qiao An who’d treated him so humbly and was still his wife. As long as he didn’t call her aunt.

“Hmph.” He snorted and ignored Huo Xiaoran.

At this moment, Qiao An walked to Huo Xiaoran’s side and naturally held his hand. “Brother Xiaoran, why bother with him? Let’s go see Old Master Li.”

The way she addressed the Li family’s old master was so unfamiliar, showing her rejection and indifference to the entire Li family.

Everyone knew that Qiao An had suffered so much in the Li family. It was most likely impossible for her to forgive the Li family.

Her attitude might affect Huo Xiaoran’s attitude towards the Li family. At this moment, her sisters-in-law were thinking. They had to privately persuade Huo Xiaoran not to be led by the nose by the smart Qiao An.

After all, they still had to rely on Huo Xiaoran to promote the Li family.

Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An went in to see Old Master Li. Old Master Li was unconscious for most of the time. They did not wake him up and stayed for a while before preparing to leave.

However, after they came out of the old man’s bedroom, Huo Xiaoran was pestered by his brothers. The eldest son said, “Xiaoran, you’ve seen Dad’s situation. I know that you and Dad don’t have a good relationship, but he’s still your father. Now that he’s in this state, you have the responsibility and obligation to deal with his funeral with us.”
