Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce

382 Cipher, Xiao Ran’s Father

Qiao An was so touched that she cried.

Then, Qiao An showed Huo Xiaoran the anonymous message she had received. “Brother Xiaoran, can you help me decipher this?”

When Huo Xiaoran saw those strange symbols, his eyes revealed a shocked glint.

“An’an, who sent you this message?” Huo Xiaoran asked excitedly.

Qiao An saw Huo Xiaoran’s abnormality and said, “Brother Xiaoran, have you seen them before?”

Huo Xiaoran nodded excitedly. “Yes. I saw a book of ciphers in my mother’s belongings.”

Qiao An said, “What a coincidence? Then you must be able to decipher what they mean?”

Huo Xiaoran looked at the characters and recalled countless evenings when he was young. He lay on his mother’s knee and listened to her talk about these ciphers in a gentle voice.

“Xiaoran, these ciphers form a love letter from Daddy to Mommy. He said that he is the wind and Mommy is the tree. He is the stream and Mommy is the river. He is the eagle and Mommy is the endless grassland. It turns out that at that time, he made up his mind to leave Mommy…”

Those memories were filled with gentleness

But later, Daddy never returned.

Mommy ended her life. And the ciphers at home disappeared.

After all these years, he’d completely forgotten about the ciphers. He didn’t expect to see it again.

He thought back to the codes he’d memorized as a child, trying to decipher them.

Soon, Huo Xiaoran opened his eyes and had an answer. “Give the list to Falcon.”

Qiao An’s eyes widened in shock. “Falcon? Who’s Falcon?”

Huo Xiaoran asked Qiao An excitedly, “An’an, who sent you the message?”

“It should be Lone Wolf.”

Qiao An looked at Huo Xiaoran and woke up.

“You said your mother has the cipher script too?”

Huo Xiaoran nodded. “An’an, Lone Wolf has some history with my mother. Perhaps he’s my father.”

Qiao An was puzzled. “That’s impossible. Brother Xiaoran, Lone Wolf is the person who saved me in the train. He’s Brother Xiao Ming.”

Huo Xiaoran was puzzled.

“I’ll go meet him.”

“Yeah.”

Qiao An stayed at home while Huo Xiaoran came to the courtyard.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Xiao Ming hanging. Xiao Yue’s father had whipped Xiao Ming with his belt. Xiao Ming was lacerated and dying.

Xiao Yue cried at the side. “Dad, I beg you, don’t hit Brother.”

Huo Zhou also tried his best to hold Mr. Xiao’s hand, but he was too strong. Huo Zhou could not suppress him at all.

On the other hand, Lu Qianqian looked at Xiao Ming coldly. She had no sympathy for Xiao Ming’s tragic encounter.

Occasionally, she would say sarcastically, “Brother Xiao Ming, we trusted you so much. We believed that you were a good man loyal to the party and the people. But in the end, you betrayed the people. I’m disappointed in you.”

Xiao Ming’s eyes were cold and defiant

His attitude angered Mr. Xiao.

“Xiao Ming, how can you let your dead father down?”

The belt was raised mercilessly and fell.

Huo Xiaoran strode forward and held Mr. Xiao’s hand. Mr. Xiao was extremely strong, but Huo Xiaoran seemed to be on par with him.

Mr. Xiao looked at Huo Xiaoran with admiration in his eyes.

Huo Xiaoran said, “Father Bo Xiao, you’ll kill him like this. It’s illegal to kill him. Are you willing to shame the Xiao family?”

Mr. Xiao woke up from his anger.

He dropped his belt and looked at Xiao Ming, who was curled up on the ground and trembling.

Then, he closed his eyes in despair. “Xiaoran is right, Xiao Ming. I have no right to humiliate you. However, as your guardian, I’m heartbroken to see you so depraved. After your injuries heal, I’ll send you to a drug rehabilitation center.”

Huo Xiaoran looked at Mr. Xiao with a smile. “Uncle, perhaps I have a way to completely make him quit drugs.”

How could it be easy for an ordinary person to quit drugs?

However, Xiao Ming’s willpower was so tenacious. He also hated drugs. Xiao Ran believed that with some acupuncture control, he could cut off his addiction.

Mr. Xiao was very happy to hear this.

“Xiaoran, you were once an outstanding doctor. Do you really have a way to detoxify this kid?”

Huo Xiaoran looked at the dying Xiao Ming and said, “Before you detoxify, you have to heal his injuries, right?”

“Yes, yes, yes.”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Carry him to the bed. I’ll check his wound.”

Then, the servants carried Xiao Ming back to the bed in the bedroom and Huo Xiaoran walked into the bedroom. However, Huo Zhou, Lu Qianqian, and Xiao Yue followed closely behind.

Before Huo Xiaoran checked Xiao Ming’s injuries, he began to take off Xiao Ming’s clothes and pants.

Xiao Yue cried out in shock, “Aiya, Cousin, are you going to take off his pants?”

Huo Xiaoran smiled evilly. “I thought you were all the closest to him. There’s no need to be embarrassed.”

Xiao Yue said, “Men and women shouldn’t be so intimate.” She pulled Lu Qianqian out.

Huo Xiaoran smiled smugly.

Xiao Ming looked at Huo Xiaoran. Although his entire body hurt, his head remained absolutely clear.

He could tell that Huo Xiaoran had deliberately sent Lu Qianqian away. Therefore, Qiao An had most likely told Huo Xiaoran that Lu Qianqian was an imposter.

Moreover, Xiaoran knew more.

Huo Xiaoran’s hand wandered around Xiao Ming’s body bit by bit. “Xiao Ming, don’t hold back where you’re in pain. Shout. Let me know your injuries.”

“Okay,” Xiao Ming said hoarsely.

However, when Huo Xiaoran’s finger touched his wound, he still sat steadily without any reaction.

Huo Xiaoran frowned. “I suspect your nervous system is damaged.”

When Huo Zhou heard this, his eyes were filled with sympathy.

“Brother Xiao Ming, how did this happen?”

Huo Xiaoran deliberately teased him. “Isn’t that better? If he’s injured, don’t you have anyone to compete with you for Lu Qianqian?”

Xiao Ming said, “Am I the kind of person to kick someone when they’re down? Besides, Sister Qianqian likes him. She rejected my confession last night.” Xiao Ming was hurt.

Huo Xiaoran said, “Don’t be depressed. In my opinion, Xiao Ming is already crippled. His nervous system has suffered irreversible damage. He might have to spend the rest of his life in bed.”

Huo Zhou’s heart ached.

“Xiaoran, you’re the strongest doctor in the neurosurgery department. Can’t you save him?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “He can’t be treated.”

Huo Zhou sighed heavily.

Xiao Ming looked at Huo Xiaoran spouting nonsense in all seriousness. There was nothing wrong with his nervous system. He could feel all the pain. It was just that his tolerance for pain was extraordinary.

“Zhou Zhou, go to my house and get my medical kit.”

“Okay.” Huo Zhou did not suspect anything and turned to leave.

When he opened the door, Huo Xiaoran saw Lu Qianqian eavesdropping on the door from the corner of his eye.

Huo Xiaoran suddenly stood up and walked away, revealing Xiao Ming’s naked appearance. It was then that Lu Qianqian closed the door awkwardly.
