610 Depressed Maternity, Love

Huo Xiaoran nodded. “I understand.”

Just like that, the father and son reached an agreement not to acknowledge the Lu family for the time being.

However, Father Qiao was a sensible person. He knew the pain of Falcon missing his family. He wouldn’t allow Qiao An’s love life to be restrained in a small situation.

Therefore, the next day, Father Qiao sent Falcon and Huo Xiaoran away. He discussed it with Qiao An, who was sunbathing in the courtyard.

“An’an, I know you’re not in good health. I shouldn’t be telling you this at this time. But I’m also afraid that you’ll cause Falcon and Xiaoran regrets by dragging them down.”

Qiao An was stunned. “I didn’t forbid them from acknowledging their family.”

Father Qiao snorted. “Hehe, you’ve been keeping a straight face at Xiaoran recently. Even if he has the guts of a bear, he won’t dare to acknowledge his family. As long as he gets close to the Lu family, it’s no different from getting close to that pretentious cousin. Now that you’ve caused such a scene, Xiaoran is avoiding the Lu family like the plague.”

Father Qiao also said, “Even if the Angel Group is in danger, Xiaoran is unwilling to ask the Lu family for help. Qiao An, you’ve punished Xiaoran. Xiaoran knows his mistake, so you should stop. There’s a limit to everything.”

Qiao An nodded and said aggrievedly, “I didn’t stop him from acknowledging his family. He was clearly the one who didn’t handle his relationship with Lu Xiaoyun well, giving the Lu family a very bad impression of him. He’s too ashamed to acknowledge his family, right?”

Father Qiao was furious. “You? Even if Xiaoran has any misunderstanding with the Lu family, Xiaoran could have acknowledged the Lu family and eliminated this misunderstanding if it weren’t for you.”

Qiao An’s argument was undermined by her father. Blushing, she said, “Okay, I know I was wrong.”

Father Qiao ordered sternly, “This matter ends here. If you dare to give Xiaoran any attitude again, be careful that Dad will cut you. You’re really becoming more and more disobedient.”

Qiao An sighed.

Seeing that she was very unconvinced, Father Qiao patiently guided her. “Don’t get into a dead end. Xiaoran saved his father and helped his cousin. That’s a sign that he values relationships and righteousness. But he didn’t neglect you because he values kinship. Don’t forget how many years Xiaoran waited for you when you were with that scumbag Li Zecheng. When you fell off a building and were injured,m who waited on you and pulled you back from the brink of death?”

Father Qiao seemed to have cleared all the nodes in Qiao An’s recent depression, and Qiao An was suddenly enlightened.

Yes, she only saw that Brother Xiaoran loved others, but she disregarded how Xiaoran loved her.

“Aye.” Qiao An sighed.

“Dad, I’ve probably been possessed recently. I knew I was in the wrong, but I just couldn’t control my temper and wanted to argue with him.”

Father Qiao said lovingly, “Don’t blame yourself. The doctor said that because you were pregnant, your endocrine secretion was affected and the hormones in your body were seriously imbalanced. An’an, you’re a patient now. Your father-in-law and husband dote on you in every way. For you, they can actually endure the pain of having their loved ones by their side and not acknowledging them. I hope you can understand them. Only when you open the knot in your heart and happily accept Xiaoran can they happily reunite with their families. The medicine for treatment is with you. You have to be stronger.”

Only then did Qiao An know that her melodramatic actions were symptoms of depression.

She didn’t expect that getting pregnant and having a miscarriage would make her so unreasonable.

After being enlightened by her father, her fighting spirit soared. “Don’t worry. I’m fine.”

How could she be defeated by depression? In the days that followed, Qiao An no longer stayed at home. Instead, she dressed up and went out to meet her friends.

Occasionally, when she was in a bad mood, she would suddenly feel depressed. At this moment, she would run to the gym and exercise desperately.

Slowly, the sallowness on Qiao An’s face disappeared and she returned to being a cold, rich, and beautiful goddess.

Her relationship with Huo Xiaoran slowly recovered. After all, Huo Xiaoran was very careful with her and protected her like a treasure. No matter how cold Qiao An’s heart was, it was warmed.

On this day, Qiao An saw the press conference between Li Kang and the Lu Corporation on television. Qiao An immediately felt upset. If it weren’t for her, Xiao Ran wouldn’t have fallen out with the Lu family.

To make up for her mistake, Qiao An decided to do something.

She asked her friend to buy some gifts. Then, accompanied by Sisi, she visited Old Master Lu.

Unfortunately, as soon as Qiao An arrived at the Lu family that day, she was stopped by Lu Xiaoyun.

Lu Xiaoyun said sarcastically, “Qiao An, did you start to feel jealous when you saw our Lu family working with your sworn enemy? Do you think you can bribe my father and grandfather with these gifts? Let me tell you, my grandfather and father hate your husband to death now. Are you satisfied? You successfully turned your husband into trash with nothing?”

“If you had been willing to divorce him back then to fulfill my wish, you wouldn’t have fallen into this state.”

The anger in Qiao An’s heart surged again. Sisi quickly comforted Qiao An. “Sister An’an, let’s not lower ourselves to her level. Don’t be angry. It’s not worth it to be angry at such a woman.”

The word “not worth it” instantly calmed Qiao An down.

Qiao An said to Lu Xiaoyun, “Don’t think too highly of yourself. I’m not here to see your father and grandfather today.”

Lu Xiaoyun was stunned, and a surprised expression appeared in her eyes.

“You’re not looking for my father and grandfather? Then who are you looking for?”

Qiao An looked at her disdainfully, then turned to look at the maid who came out. “Please inform Lu Ze that I have something to tell him.”

Lu Ze was the name of Huo Xiaoran’s biological father, Falcon.

When the maid and Lu Xiaoyun heard this name, she was clearly stunned for a moment.

Lu Xiaoyun smiled and said, “Qiao An, did you go to the wrong place? Our family doesn’t have Lu Ze. My father’s name is Lu Yu.”

Qiao An said to the maid, “Lu Ze might be your servant. Please help me inform him. There’s an emergency at home.”

The maid did not refuse and turned to enter the house.

Lu Xiaoyun looked at Qiao An’s gifts. “These are all for Lu Ze?”

Qiao An said, “Yeah.”

Lu Xiaoyun’s face burned. She thought that Qiao An was here to make peace with the Lu family with a generous gift. She didn’t expect her to come to see an unknown small fry.

Sisi secretly gave Qiao An a thumbs up.

If Qiao An had bluntly asked to see Old Master Lu, Lu Xiaoyun might have humiliated her, and Old Master Lu might not have seen her. Now that she had said Lu Ze’s name, he would definitely take the initiative to see Qiao An if Old Master Lu was still thinking about his son.
