Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce-Chapter 569 - A Husband Sings and a Wife Plays along
569 A Husband Sings and a Wife Plays along
In order to celebrate this festive day, Qiao An decided to hold a banquet for the guests. However, the two fathers had been thrifty their entire lives. Qiao An’s suggestion was objected to by them at the same time. “An’an, forget about the banquet. This isn’t a big deal. Why trouble our relatives and friends?”
Qiao An was afraid of her father. He objected vehemently, so she could only lower her head in frustration.
Xiaoran reached out and quietly pinched Qiao An’s small hand, then gave her a comforting look. Xiaoran said to Father Qiao, “Dad, my An’an isn’t an extravagant person. She usually wears the same clothes and never holds her birthday banquet, let alone buy luxury goods. She even wanted to save on the wedding. After so long, this is the first time she’s suggested holding a family banquet, and it’s just to please you. She wants you to integrate into our circle of friends as soon as possible. Her filial piety is commendable. Why don’t you fulfill her wishes?”
Father Qiao and Falcon looked at each other.
Falcon blamed Xiaoran. “Xiaoran, this is your fault. Since you’re not short of money, why are you making An’an suffer? If other people’s wives have it, your An’an has to have it too. Your wife is not worse than others. You should treat her better.”
Qiao An quickly explained, “Dad, it’s not Brother Xiaoran’s fault. He gave me his bank card. His pocket is cleaner than his face.”
Huo Xiaoran nodded pitifully.
Falcon smiled honestly. “Qiao An is good at managing money. Men turn bad when they’re rich.”
Actually, all parents hated to see their children suffer. Falcon could protect Qiao An like this because Qiao An’s love for Xiaoran had already surpassed his own standards of love. It made Falcon trust Qiao An infinitely more.
However, Father Qiao raised his eyebrows and glanced at his daughter uncomfortably. He was very anxious. In this family, Xiaoran would do the housework and Qiao An would manage the money. An’an’s family status was too high, and he was afraid that Xiaoran would resist after a long time.
Therefore, Father Qiao’s opinion was the opposite of Falcon’s. “An’an, you’re not good at math and you haven’t studied economics in university. In my opinion, you should return the bank card to Xiaoran.”
Qiao An naturally knew Father Qiao’s concern. She echoed, “Okay,” then stood up and walked upstairs.
However, Xiaoran grabbed her and said to Father Qiao, “Dad, when An’an takes care of the expenses, my family’s coffers are really full. When I take care of the finances, my family wouldn’t have any savings.”
Father Qiao was stunned.
Falcon began to worry about Xiaoran’s ability to earn money. He said worriedly, “Xiaoran, is the money you earn not enough to spend? If it’s not enough, tell Dad. Dad will give you all his savings over the years.”
Huo Xiaoran was dumbfounded. “Dad, what do you mean? Are you supporting your son?”
Falcon said, “Aiya, son, it’s not embarrassing to depend on your elders. It’s just that you have a son and wife. You can’t wrong them.”
Qiao An smiled and explained, “Dad, Brother Xiaoran is the richest man in the capital after all. How can he not have money? He used to spend money like water.”
Falcon and Father Qiao stared at Xiaoran in unison. “Xiaoran, how do you use this money?”
Xiaoran grinned awkwardly.
Qiao An explained again, “He used his private money to buy a company and gave it to his favorite.”
Father Qiao was so angry that his face turned pale. “Xiaoran, how can you let Qiao An down by doing this?”
Xiaoran jumped up in fear and quickly explained, “An’an, what are you saying? Speak properly.”
Seeing that he was still quibbling, Falcon was furious. “Xiaoran, can’t Qiao An say that you made a mistake? How can you be so muddle-headed?”
With that, Falcon began to look for the family law to comfort Father Qiao. “In-law, don’t be angry. I’ll deal with this fool for you.”
Qiao An quickly pulled Falcon over and sat down before finishing. “Dad, don’t be anxious. Let me finish first. I’m Brother Xiaoran’s only favorite.”
Falcon exhaled heavily and patted his chest. “You scared me to death.”
This time, Father Qiao was furious. “In-law, calm down. My daughter has been naughty since she was young. I’ll teach her a lesson. Where’s the broom?”
Qiao An was so frightened that she quickly hid behind Huo Xiaoran. “Brother Xiaoran, save me.”
Xiao Ran took off the broom from Father Qiao’s hand. “Dad, An’an saw that the two of you were too clingy, so she deliberately teased you to make you happy.”
Father Qiao and Falcon looked at each other again, then laughed heartily.
Father Qiao patted Huo Xiaoran’s shoulder happily and said, “Xiaoran, don’t always put in a good word for An’an. I fathered that girl. How can I not understand her? She’s been like this since she was young. Her personality is rough and she doesn’t differentiate between the old and young. You’ll have to suffer in the future. Please forgive her.”
Qiao An’s elegant filter cracked. She pouted and protested to Father Qiao, “Dad, I’m different from when I was young. I’m a socialite now, dignified and elegant.”
Father Qiao chuckled coldly with an incredulous gaze.
Qiao An gave up defending herself.
Xiao Ran looked at Qiao An quietly. Today, Qiao An was unprecedentedly lively and naughty. When he first met her, he knew that she was a vivacious and cheerful girl. However, after so many years, An’an’s nature had been suppressed by the difficult life, making her overly mature and steady.
Seeing her unleash her nature today, Huo Xiaoran couldn’t control his excitement. 𝙛𝓇𝑒𝗲𝒘e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕. com
An’an was what he wanted.
With Father Qiao as a professional undermining her, Qiao An couldn’t hold it in anymore. She burrowed into the kitchen. “I’ll cook for you.”
Father Qiao asked her, “Do you know how to cook? I see that Xiaoran has been cooking these days. You eat ready-made food.”
Qiao An stared at Falcon in embarrassment and wheedled with Father Qiao helplessly. “Dad, save me some dignity. It’s not that difficult to cook. With your daughter’s IQ, can’t she do it?”
Father Qiao said bluntly, “In that case, make me sweet and sour pork.”
Qiao An froze.
Why did it have to be such a complicated dish?
“Dad, you can’t eat sweets. You are so old already and need to learn to take care of yourself?”
Father Qiao said helplessly, “Go, go. You’ll do whatever you know.”
Xiaoran was worried that Qiao An would not be able to handle it and quickly said, “I’ll go help An’an.”
However, Father Qiao chuckled and said, “Xiaoran, come over and talk to your father.”
Xiaoran glanced at the kitchen worriedly. Father Qiao could tell what he was thinking and said solemnly to Xiaoran, “Xiaoran, let An’an practice her culinary skills. She’s going to be a mother-in-law in the future. If she doesn’t know how to cook, she’ll be despised by her daughter-in-law.”
Huo Xiaoran was furious. “I don’t even despise her. Who dares to despise her?”
