Chapter 469 - 469 Coaxing

469 Coaxing

Huo Xiaoran looked at her steadily, as if he didn’t believe that the conservative Qiao An could do such a thing.

However, Qiao An really bit a cherry and fed it into Huo Xiaoran’s mouth.

Huo Xiaoran was caught off guard and swallowed the cherry.

Qiao An sensed that Huo Xiaoran’s expression had softened and she smiled freely.

Huo Xiaoran pushed his luck and said to her, “I want water.”

!!

Qiao An picked up the glass of water and took a big gulp before feeding it to Huo Xiaoran.

This time, Huo Xiaoran did not let her off. He held her waist with his big hands and moved her close to him. Their faces rubbed against each other for a long time before they separated.

Qiao An nestled her head against his shoulder and neck. “Hubby, actually, you don’t have to be jealous at all, because you don’t know how much I love you. To you, I’m determined to never change partners in this life and walk with you until my hair turns white.”

Huo Xiaoran was touched by Qiao An’s honesty and hugged her tightly. “An’an, if you had said that to me earlier, I wouldn’t have been so sad tonight. I thought that you didn’t care about my emotions. I was so sad that you were so negligent to me.”

Qiao An snickered. “Forgive me for being dense. I didn’t know why you were angry at all. I had to rely on the internet to educate myself.”

The two of them seemed to have endless whispers until they went to bed.

Meanwhile, after Li Zecheng and Li Ze’en returned home, Huang Yushu looked at them differently from usual with a hint of warning.

Li Zecheng followed his mother’s gaze and saw Old Master Li and his stepmother’s family standing in the middle of the room, looking at them. A hint of displeasure appeared on Li Zecheng’s face.

“If you’re here for Li Tingfeng, I advise you not to waste your breath. I sent him to jail and never thought of letting him out,” Li Zecheng said fiercely.

Old Master Li said agedly, “Zecheng, do you hate him that much?”

Li Zecheng clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. “Yes. If it weren’t for him, my mother wouldn’t have been paralyzed.”

Huang Yushu was sitting in a wheelchair. Compared to the old Master Li, the middle-aged woman was indeed much younger. However, sadly, Huang Yushu had to use a wheelchair. This was Li Tingfeng’s fault.

Old Master Li was very ashamed. “I know Tingfeng has done many wrong things. You all hate him, but he’s also old. After being imprisoned this time, he probably won’t be able to come out. I just hope that you can forgive him and give him the last bit of love in his life so that he will have faith till the day he is released from prison.”

Huang Yushu was silent.

Li Zecheng said bitterly, “Grandpa, our love is not important to him at all. He doesn’t care at all. He cares about them.”

He stared at his stepmother, who was a little embarrassed. However, she quickly raised her head and walked up to Huang Yushu with her head held high. “Sister Yushu, I believe you’ve heard about Li Tingfeng. He owes a lot of debts outside. Those debts were owed during your marriage with him. I think you have an obligation to repay this debt for us.”

Huang Yushu looked at the woman in front of her. She had fought with her for her entire life, and in the end, she returned in a crushing defeat. She thought that this life had finally become her eternal regret.

Unexpectedly, at the last moment, the heavens wanted them to fight again. However, this time, Huang Yushu was different from before. She no longer had to worry about Li Tingfeng’s feelings. She could fight her with all her might.

So when Huang Yushu saw the woman’s usual determined expression, she smiled disdainfully.

“When I divorced Li Tingfeng, you were in a hurry to take over. Now you can’t wait to let me clear Li Tingfeng’s debts and let me leave with nothing. You became Li Tingfeng’s wife for me, which means that you are helping him take on those debts. Now that Li Tingfeng has met his downfall, you want to share the debt with me. Who gave you the cheek to suggest this?”

“Huang Yushu, if you don’t pay these debts, I’ll sue you.”

Huang Yushu looked at her proudly. “How ridiculous. How are you going to sue me? Do you still have money? The current you are filled with the dejectedness of a stray dog. You even came to my house. How unlucky.”

“You…” When had the woman ever suffered such anger? After all, if Huang Yushu had retorted to her in the past, Li Tingfeng would have helped her.

The woman was too angry to speak.

Huang Yushu continued, “Get lost. A stupid woman like you is not my match at all. In the past, I lost because I didn’t want the children to lose their father. Now that my children are successful, I don’t have to be at Li Tingfeng’s beck and call. Why should I tolerate your stupidity? Get lost, I don’t want to see you. If you have anything against me, feel free to sue.”

The woman bristled. “You…”

Old Master Li closed his eyes in despair.

From the moment he stepped in, he had smelled hatred. Huang Yushu was brooding over Li Tingfeng’s heartlessness. Zecheng and Ze’en were hung up about Li Tingfeng’s brutality and wanted to destroy Li Tingfeng and their stepmother to seek justice for their mother.

It was impossible for him to successfully lobby them to save Li Tingfeng.

Old Master Li hid those unreasonable requests in his heart and said helplessly to Li Zecheng, “Zecheng, Grandpa knows that you feel bitter, but please understand me. I’m a father. How can a father watch his son die? Even if he’s very useless…”

“I hope you can agree to my last request. Go see him and make peace with him.”

Li Zecheng looked at his mother. Huang Yushu sighed and said, “Zecheng Ze’en, fulfill your grandfather’s wish.”

Li Zecheng nodded. “Grandpa, don’t worry. I’ll visit him another day.”

Old Master Li nodded and left Huang Yushu’s house alone.

At night, Li Zecheng sent a message to Huo Xiaoran. “Uncle, I want to see Li Tingfeng. Can you help me arrange it?”

On the other end, when Huo Xiaoran saw this message, he inexplicably felt jealous.

No matter how bad Li Tingfeng was or how unreasonable he was, no matter how much Zecheng hated him and couldn’t wait to cut ties with him, at least they could see each other.

What about him?

That person was clearly alive, but he had ignored him like a dead person for so many years.

Did he have a son in his heart?

Huo Xiaoran replied to Li Zecheng, “Okay.”

The next day, Li Zecheng and Huang Yushu arrived at the prison and saw Li Tingfeng.

When Li Tingfeng saw Huang Yushu, his expression was very complicated. From surprise to joy to sadness and loss.

“I didn’t expect you to visit me again.” Li Tingfeng’s voice was dispirited.
