Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce-Chapter 567 - Father-in-law’s Wrath

567 Father-in-law’s Wrath

Huo Xiaoran brought a car full of gifts, Qiao An, and the three children, and set off for Zeng City early in the morning.

Qiao An looked at the scenery leading to her hometown, unable to calm down.

She grew up in Zeng City, but she stayed in other cities. Like a dandelion, she left her parents’ arms when she grew up. In the end, there was only endless longing.

In the future, her children would be like her and stay away from her and Xiaoran.

“What are you thinking about?” Huo Xiaoran suddenly reached out and stroked Qiao An’s head.

Qiao An said sentimentally, “Brother Xiaoran, one day, the children will leave us, and we can only rely on each other. Therefore, you have to protect your body well and accompany me to the end.”

Huo Xiaoran looked at Qiao An in a daze. He knew that she was thinking of her parents. Father Qiao and Mother Qiao were once such a loving couple, but Mother Qiao left Father Qiao when she was just over fifty years old.

This was a sad thing. Huo Xiaoran was unwilling to face this heavy topic, but he knew that no one could avoid separation.

“An’an, if you leave, I’ll go with you,” Xiao Ran suddenly said solemnly.

Qiao An’s eyes widened. “Brother Xiaoran, why would you think that?” If she left, she hoped that Brother Xiaoran would live well.

Huo Xiaoran’s voice was a little hoarse. “You don’t know that I lived in the Xing family without faith. I was like a walking corpse. At that time, I couldn’t remember you, so I could barely live without a soul. But now that I have you, I only want to follow in your footsteps in my life and do what you like. I want to grow old with you and walk with you.”

Qiao An’s eyes were moist. “Brother Xiaoran, let me walk behind you.”

At least she was stronger than him. Other than him, she still loved the children.

Huo Xiaoran did not speak.

When the car arrived at Zeng City, the heavy atmosphere in the car was relieved. The children were excited. “Are we almost at Grandpa’s house?”

“Yes. Soon.”

When the car drove into the Qiao family’s small courtyard, he saw a lonely figure sitting at the door of the house from afar.

Qiao An’s eyes instantly turned red. She suddenly regretted it. All these years, she had mistakenly thought that her father was still very healthy and that he was really living carefreely alone. That was why she rarely came back to see him.

But looking through the car window and seeing her father’s pale hair and dense wrinkles, Qiao An felt suffocated.

“Dad,” she murmured.

Huo Xiaoran parked the car at the entrance of the Qiao family’s courtyard. Father Qiao stood up in a daze, his eyes filled with confusion.

Until he heard Qiao An’s moderate call. He walked over in surprise.

“An’an.”

The car door opened and Huo Xiaoran got out first. Then, he gently opened the car door for his wife and children.

“Grandpa.” The children ran out of the car and stood in front of Grandpa in unison, nodding and saluting.

“Aiyo, if it isn’t my good grandchildren.” Father Qiao patted each child’s head happily. “I miss you so much.”

Huo Xiaoran held Qiao An’s hand and walked over. “Dad,” Huo Xiaoran called out gently.

This was the first time Huo Xiaoran had addressed Father Qiao this way. When Father Qiao heard Xiaoran’s address, he turned to look at Huo Xiaoran in surprise. When he saw that familiar handsome face, Father Qiao cried.

“Xiaoran, you’re finally back?”

Xiao Ran and Father Qiao hugged intimately. “Dad, I’m sorry to have frightened you.”

Father Qiao wiped his tears and was pleasantly surprised. “It’s good that you’re back.”

Then, Father Qiao looked at his daughter lovingly and complained to her, “Child, I’m your father. What couldn’t you tell me? Back then, you brought the three children home. It was Dad who expelled you from the family without asking for the truth. Dad regrets it very much.”

Back then, Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran had children out of wedlock, and Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran’s love life didn’t go well. When Qiao An returned to the Qiao family, Father Qiao misunderstood that she had an affair, so he chased Qiao An away in a fit of anger.

All these years, this had been stuck in his heart. He couldn’t let it go.

But Qiao An smiled casually. “Dad, you didn’t do anything wrong. It’s my fault.”

Huo Xiaoran looked at Qiao An. She would always help him take responsibility. She would take responsibility for everything.

Xiao Ran’s heart ached for Qiao An.

He told Father Qiao guiltily, “Dad, it’s not An’an’s fault. It was my fault. I was drunk and went crazy, forcing An’an to get pregnant. It was also me who made a bad friend and gave her the chance to drive a wedge between Qiao An and me. As a result, An’an was forced to leave the capital and go overseas to give birth. It was also because of me that An’an accidentally entered a bandit’s lair and lived a terrifying life.”

At this point, Huo Xiaoran knelt in front of Father Qiao. “Dad, now that you’ve heard the truth, I know your heart must ache for An’an. Hit me. You’ll feel better.”

When Father Qiao heard so much bad news, his eyes widened and he was dumbfounded.

Then, he went to look for something to administer the family law. “Where’s the broom? Huo Xiaoran, to think I trusted you so much. How can you bully my An’an like this?”

When he found the broom, he was so angry that he raised it to hit him. Xiao Ran straightened his back. “Dad, hit me. I won’t blame you no matter how you punish me.”

However, Qiao An lay on Huo Xiaoran’s back and protected him. “Dad, don’t hit him. If you hit him, the pain will be in my heart.”

Father Qiao roared angrily, “Huo Xiaoran, you saw it. My daughter has been ruined by you for the rest of her life. She’s so good to you.”

Huo Xiaoran looked up at Qiao An with tears in his eyes. “An’an, get up. Be obedient.”

“I won’t.”

Father Qiao said angrily, “Since you’re protecting him, I’ll hit you too.”

Huo Xiaoran held the broom that fell from the sky and begged, “Dad, just hit me. The wound on An’an’s back has just healed. Please don’t hit her.”

Father Qiao was surprised. “How did you get hurt?”

Qiao An gave Huo Xiaoran a look, indicating that he shouldn’t have said anything.

However, Xiao Ran was magnanimous by nature and told Father Qiao everything about Qiao An being burned by Xiao Ya.

When Father Qiao heard this, he instantly went crazy. “Huo Xiaoran, you’re Qiao An’s jinx. My An’an is simply unlucky to be with you.”

Father Qiao was a man and was crying.

Huo Xiaoran comforted him. “Dad, I know An’an has suffered a lot following me. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely do my best to make it up to her in the future.”

...

Qiao An also comforted Father Qiao. “Dad, all the harm is in the past. It wasn’t easy for Brother Xiaoran and me to reunite. Can you bear to make our hard-earned happiness worse?”
