Chapter 290: A Visit to the Prison

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Ever since Qiao An moved into the courtyard, every time Huo Xiaoran passed by Qiao An’s courtyard, he couldn’t help but look up and glance inside. When he heard the children’s laughter and Qiao An’s gentle voice, he would feel satisfied.

But today, her courtyard was exceptionally quiet.

Huo Xiaoran’s heart sank for some reason. He picked up his phone and called Qiao An. The phone rang a few times before Qiao An picked up.

But she was extremely silent and didn’t speak for a long time.

An ominous feeling enveloped Huo Xiaoran.

“An’an, aren’t you home?”

Qiao An made a sound of agreement. Then fell back into silent silence.

Compared to her usual talkative personality, Qiao An was too abnormal today.

“Where are you?” Huo Xiaoran asked fearfully.

Qiao An didn’t answer his question. After a long time, she said, “Mr. Ho, I’ve moved out of Heavenly Imperial Garden. I’ve decided to return the houses to you.”

That distant address was like a basin of cold water that drenched Huo Xiaoran from head to toe.

“Why do you suddenly want to keep a distance from me?” Huo Xiaoran asked in pain.

Qiao An’s voice was slightly husky and tired. “Your fiancée came today. I could feel her anger. I was ashamed to see her in such pain.”

“Mr. Huo, you don’t have to be good to me in the future. Because your kindness to me will make me hallucinate. It will make me fantasize about you.”

“We’re both adults and should keep our heads clear at all times. You’re a man and shouldn’t be indecisive between me and Lu Mo. Since you’ve decided to keep your promise to Lu Mo, love her with all your heart. Forget me completely.”

“And I shouldn’t have any illusions about a married man. I won’t see you again.”

“Goodbye, Mr. Huo.”

Qiao An finished speaking in one breath and hung up decisively without giving Huo Xiaoran any time to reply.

Huo Xiaoran felt as if he was wrapped in huge ice and snow, and his entire body was cold. His limbs and bones seemed to have frozen.

Was Qiao An severing ties with him?

Recovering, he called back in a panic, but Qiao An’s phone was switched off.

Huo Xiaoran’s eyes were red as he smashed his phone on the ground. He muttered to himself, “Qiao An, I only married her to punish her. I already have evidence of her cheating. Only by getting married can I make her pay the price she deserves.”

“You’ve misunderstood me. I’m not indecisive between the two of you. I only love you. An’an.”

“Why can they hurt you so unscrupulously, but you’re kind enough to talk to her about human justice?”

He returned home dispiritedly and lay down on the sofa.

At the moment, he was wavering. Qiao An didn’t like being a third party. Should he withdraw his revenge plan?

Then his phone rang.

He grabbed his phone, fully expecting it to be Qiao An. Instead, he saw that it was his assistant.

He picked up the phone. There was a spitting sound on the other end.

“President Huo…”

“Just say it.” Huo Xiaoran was frustrated.

The assistant said, “You asked me to investigate Miss Lu Mo’s illness. I found out.”

Huo Xiaoran sat up.

“Shoot.”

“So Miss Lu Mo didn’t take any medicine at all. The person who took the medicine was indeed her mother. Mrs. Lu had a breast examination in the hospital a few years ago. At that time, she was already diagnosed as an early-stage breast cancer patient.”

Huo Xiaoran’s eyes darkened. “Send me the evidence.”

The assistant hesitated. “President, there’s one more thing. It’s a secret that we accidentally discovered when we were investigating Mrs. Lu.”

Huo Xiaoran smiled evilly. The Lu family had many secrets.

“Shoot.”

“Lu Mo’s blood type doesn’t match Dean Lu’s blood type.”

A hint of surprise appeared in Huo Xiaoran’s eyes. He quickly thought of Li Changhai, who doted on Lu Mo to the point of insanity.

A cold glint blossomed in Huo Xiaoran’s eyes. “Arrange it immediately. I want to meet Li Changhai as soon as possible.”

“Okay.”

After hanging up, Huo Xiaoran was dejected.

“Qiao An, wait for me. I’ll show you my sincerity soon.”

The next day, Huo Xiaoran made a visit to the prison.

His assistant had already arranged everything for him. He saw Li Changhai very smoothly.

The warden even made an exception for him and allowedHuo Xiaoran to meet Li Changhai alone in a small room.

Li Changhai came out happily, thinking that someone from the Lu family had come to visit him. However, when he saw Huo Xiaoran, his disappointment was written all over his face.

“Why are you here?” Li Changhai asked impatiently.

Huo Xiaoran revealed his identity and tempted, “Lu Mo asked me to visit you.”

Hearing Lu Mo’s name, Li Changhai obediently sat on the chair opposite Huo Xiaoran.

“Are you married to Momo?”

Huo Xiaoran smiled and did not deny it.

Li Changhai confidently believed this speculation.

He thought happily that since Huo Xiaoran had become Lu Mo’s husband, he would definitely be able to help her get out of prison.

He said shamelessly, “Xiaoran, since you’re married to Momo, we’re family. Can you find some connections to get me out?”

Huo Xiaoran’s eyes were terrifyingly dark. “I want to do you a favor, but I’m afraid you’ll have to spend the rest of your life in prison.”

Li Changhai was stunned. “I clearly only got ten years. As long as I perform well, my sentence can be reduced. How can I be expected to spend the rest of my life in prison?”

Huo Xiaoran looked at him. “Shouldn’t you spend the rest of your life in prison?”

“For what… crime?”

“Whose flesh and blood is Lu Mo? You know better than anyone,” Huo Xiaoran said patiently.

Li Changhai clearly panicked. “What do you mean? I don’t understand.”

“You don’t understand?” Huo Xiaoran threw a stack of documents in front of Li Changhai. “Lu Mo is your daughter. Dean Lu knows about this.”

Li Changhai’s face turned pale. “Then did he make things difficult for Madam Lu and Miss Lu Mo?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “If you were Dean Lu, what would you do if you were made a cuckold?”

Li Changhai was a ruthless person. He immediately felt that Director Lu would not let Mrs. Lu and Lu Mo off easily.

“Is Lu Mo alright?”

“She’s not well.”

Huo Xiaoran threw an agreement to him. “You know that Dean Lu cares about his reputation. He’s not willing to publicize such family scandals. If you cooperate with him and sign this contract obediently, perhaps he can let bygones be bygones. He can turn a blind eye.”

Li Changhai flipped through the agreement. The agreement stated that he had committed adultery with Mother Lu and Lu Mo was born as a result. If he stamped and signed it, he would have confessed to these things.

However, the content of the contract was very cunning. A large number of pages were his confession and guarantee to Dean Lu.

Li Changhai hesitated for a long time before finally signing it.
