Lu Mo comforted her. “Mom, I don’t think so. If Senior really suspects us, he wouldn’t have persuaded Qiao An to stay. In my opinion, the medical plan he formulated for Qiao An is just due to his professionalism towards patients.”

Mrs. Lu was furious. “Because of his interference, we can’t do anything to Qiao An.”

Lu Mo sighed in disappointment. “We’ll find an opportunity in the future.”

The night was hazy. A tall, imposing figure stood in front of the French windows. There was a smoky cigarette between his long white fingers. The hazy light smoke blurred his handsome face.

When Huo Zhou pushed open the door and entered, he choked on the smoke in the room and coughed non-stop.

“Xiaoran, how many cigarettes have you smoked? I’m choking.” Huo Zhou could not help but complain.

Huo Xiaoran turned around and stubbed out the red cigar butt on his finger. He walked to the sofa and sat down.

Huo Zhou finally stopped coughing and said angrily, “You’re disturbing my sleep in the middle of the night. Tell me, why are you looking for me?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “There’s something I can’t investigate. I’ll alert the enemy.”

Huo Zhou smelled the seriousness of the matter and approached Huo Xiaoran. “What’s the matter?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “I suspect that Li Changhai hurt Qiao An because of Lu Mo and her mother.”

Huo Zhou was extremely shocked.

Lu Mo’s innocent face appeared in his mind. He shook his head and said, “I think what you said about Mother Lu’s actions is credible. But Lu Mo, how can you doubt her? She loves you so much and is so gentle and kind, as docile as a little rabbit. I don’t think she can do anything outrageous.”

Huo Xiaoran was silent.

He seemed to be unmoved by Huo Zhou’s persuasion.

Huo Zhou continued, “Did Qiao An say something to you? Xiaoran, as a brother, I have to remind you that love is stupid. Lu Mo and Qiao An are not on the same level at all.”

Huo Zhou recalled the negative comments about Qiao An and tried his best to pull Huo Xiaoran back.

“Qiao An abandoned you and got together with Li Zecheng back then. Xiaoran, if she can abandon a lover like you who has a deep love for her, what etiquette and morals can’t she abandon? On the other hand, Lu Mo has always been loyal to you. No matter if you’re poor or rich, her heart hasn’t changed.”

“Besides, since Qiao An was able to destroy the Li family, it can be seen that she’s a ruthless character. Now that she sees that you’re rich, she has the intention to get back together with you. I can tell that her attitude towards you has changed a lot these days. She wants to get back together with you. Xiaoran, you can’t have such a gold digger.”

Huo Zhou gave a long speech and concluded, “In my opinion, Qiao An is trying to sow discord between you and Lu Mo so that she can return to your side. Xiaoran, don’t be fooled.”

Huo Xiaoran looked at Huo Zhou in a daze. “If she’s really willing to come back, I want her too.”

Huo Zhou was dumbfounded.

Then, she roared, “Are you crazy? Xiaoran, I admit that your relationship was beautiful in the past, but that’s in the past. Now, she, Qiao An, is a divorced woman with children and is even targetted by a murderer. She’s no longer worthy of you. Her experiences are so complicated that they can be published.”

Huo Xiaoran said firmly, “No matter what she has experienced, she’s Qiao An. She’s the Qiao An whom I promised to protect for the rest of her life.”

“What about Lu Mo? Xiaoran, Lu Mo has waited for you for so many years. Aren’t you going to give Lu Mo an explanation? What’s the difference between you and those scumbags who abandoned you?”

Huo Xiaoran said with a stern gaze, “If Lu Mo and Mrs. Lu are involved in Li Changhai’s murder, do you think Lu Mo and I can still be together?”

Huo Zhou shook his head. “No. Then Lu Mo is an accomplice of a murderer. The Huo family won’t allow you to marry a woman with such a dark background.”

At this point, Huo Zhou came to a realization.

“That’s right. I’ll really investigate this matter. If the Lu family is related to the murder of Li Changhai, you can’t be the Lu family’s son-in-law.”

Huo Zhou felt a headache coming on. He said in distress, “Look at you. You have looks, talent, and power. What woman can’t you find? Do you have to choose between these two women?”

Huo Xiaoran glared at him coldly.

Huo Zhou quickly stopped him. “Alright, alright, let’s not talk about you.”

Huo Xiaoran pondered for a moment and reminded Huo Zhou, “Zhou Zhou, don’t alert the enemy.”

“Got it.”

Qiao An was hospitalized for a week and her condition was greatly alleviated.

This day, Director Sun actually told Qiao An for the first time, “You should have stayed for a few more days, but Xiaoran told me that you don’t like to stay in the hospital. In that case, I’ll give you a discharge certificate.”

“But Qiao An, you can’t be careless with your lungs. When you get home, you have to take your medicine on time and rest. Remember not to tire yourself out. Come back for a checkup in three days. Just look for me.”

As a patient, Qiao An could intuitively feel that her condition was indeed much better, but the illness had not been completely cured. She deliberated over Director Sun’s words and seemed to understand Huo Xiaoran’s good intentions.

He was doing his best to protect her from Mrs. Lu and Lu Mo.

So was he starting to suspect Lu Mo and his mother?

Qiao An declined Director Sun’s kindness. “Dr. Sun, I still have some residual symptoms. I want to stay in the hospital for two or three more days. Is that okay?”

Dr. Sun was slightly stunned. “Of course.”

He was puzzled. Why did Qiao An suddenly change her mind?

Little did he know that after Qiao An confirmed that her safety was guaranteed, she began to think about something else. Since she was hospitalized at Jinghang Hospital, why not take the opportunity to find evidence of Lu Mo pretending to be sick?

Qiao An didn’t stay idle after that. She used all the time she could to ask around the hospital for information about Lu Mo.

His efforts had paid off.

Qiao An found a list of all the doctors and nurses who treated Lu Mo, nursed her, and gave him IVs.

By the day she was discharged, she had a contented smile on her face. Xiao Yue and Qiao He had come to pick her up.

Seeing the mysterious smile on Qiao An’s face, Xiao Yue couldn’t help but secretly tug at her sleeve. “Sister Qiao An, is there good news?”

Qiao An said, “Let’s talk in the car.”

After they left the entrance of Jinghang Hospital and got into Xiao Yue’s private car, Xiao Yue couldn’t wait to ask, “Sister Qiao An, tell me quickly, what good news did you encounter?”

Qiao An took a small notebook out of her bag and threw it to Xiao Yue.

Xiao Yue opened her notebook and saw that Qiao An had drawn a clear mental map with an abstract symbol.
