However, Huo Xiaoran was not interested in such flattery at all. He put on a stoic face that would not change for ten thousand years and then began to eat with his head lowered.

How could Mrs. Lu miss this rare opportunity to force him to marry her daughter? She kept adding more food to Huo Xiaoran’s plate. “Xiaoran, you work hard usually. You have to eat more vegetables to replenish your nutrition and protect your body.”

Huo Xiaoran placed his bowl on the dining table and directly refused. “Auntie, I’m sorry. I’m particular about hygiene. Can I take my own food?”

Mother Lu’s chopsticks stayed in the air.

Only then did she realize that she was using her own chopsticks. In the end, she was only focused on picking up food for Huo Xiaoran and actually mixed it up.

!!

She was extremely embarrassed.

Huo Xiaoran did something that made her even more embarrassed. He actually asked the waiter to change his bowl and chopsticks.

Lu Mo gave her mother a look and felt that her mother had gone overboard.

Mrs. Lu simply cut to the chase and said angrily, “Xiaoran, you have to change your mysophobia after you get married. Otherwise, it’ll be troublesome for you to live with Momo.”

Huo Xiaoran said seriously, “If Auntie feels that your daughter will suffer if Lu Mo follows me, you can go back on your word before we get married.”

Mrs. Lu suppressed the anger in her heart. “Xiaoran, what are you saying? Since you and Momo are already engaged, our Lu family values reputation the most. How can you go back on your word?”

This was holding Huo Xiaoran to the moral high ground.

However, Huo Xiaoran was a deviant. “If Mrs. Lu feels that backing out will damage the Lu family’s image, it’s fine. I’ll bring it up.”

Lu Mo kept signaling her mother to stop talking.

Because Huo Xiaoran seemed to dislike Mrs. Lu’s words.

Lu Mo tried to smooth things over. “Senior, my mother doesn’t mind that you’re a clean freak. She knows how much I love you and that I can’t leave you in this life. Senior, we’re already engaged. How can we go back on our word?”

Huo Xiaoran looked at Lu Mo seriously. “Momo, I’ve told you before that I don’t have any feelings for you. Therefore, as long as you want to retreat, I won’t blame you. I’ll compensate you.”

Lu Mo instantly panicked.

When she pursued Huo Xiaoran back then, Huo Xiaoran had indeed told her very frankly that he only had feelings for Qiao An, so he didn’t want to harm her.

She was the one who’d flown into the fire, thinking about his stunning looks and his position of power. So she’d wanted to be with him without hesitation.

However, after being with him for so many years, she had almost forgotten about this matter. Today, he brought it up again. This made the sense of security that Lu Mo had painstakingly built collapse instantly.

“Senior, I know. I haven’t forgotten your warning back then. It’s just that I’m weak now, and I don’t expect you to give me much. As long as you marry me and give me a home, I won’t have any regrets in this life.”

Lu Mo’s retreat made Huo Xiaoran stop attacking.

Lunch ended in such an awkward atmosphere.

Mrs. Lu was still racking her brains to think of a way to use the remaining time they had to force the marriage. Unexpectedly, Huo Xiaoran counterattacked and asked Mrs. Lu, “Auntie, do you know where Li Changhai is?”

Mrs. Lu’s heart skipped a beat and she explained, “The plane ticket I bought for him is for the United States. He should be in the United States at this time.”

“Looks like Auntie gave him a lot of money. Is Auntie so generous to the Lu family’s workers?” Huo Xiaoran said leisurely.

Mother Lu felt a chill.

Huo Xiaoran was clearly questioning her for hiring a murderer.

However, Mother Lu could not be angry. She smiled and said, “He’s very good to Momo. It’s inevitable that I’ll treat him differently.”

Huo Xiaoran’s dark eyes landed on Mrs. Lu’s bag. “Can you lend me your phone for a few days?”

Mrs. Lu’s body almost swayed, and she finally stabilized herself. Her face was a little pale.

“Xiaoran, why do you want my phone?” She pretended to be calm.

Huo Xiaoran said, “I think he will contact you.”

Mrs. Lu heaved a sigh of relief. “Xiaoran, I have too many old friends on my phone. I also have many business numbers. It’s indeed not convenient for me to lend them to you. But don’t worry, if he calls me, I’ll report to you immediately.”

In the end, Mrs. Lu was angered by Huo Xiaoran. She gritted her teeth and said, “Xiaoran, you’re so concerned about Qiao An’s matter. You still have to consider my Momo’s feelings. My Momo is a cancer patient.”

Huo Xiaoran glanced at the silent and obedient Lu Mo and did not make things difficult for Mrs. Lu.

When they parted, Lu Mo deliberately bade Huo Xiaoran farewell. “Senior, Mom and I will go back to the hospital. Where are you going?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Back to the company.”

Lu Mo and Mother Lu watched as Huo Xiaoran left in the Rolls-Royce. Mother Lu finally could not hold it in anymore and staggered, almost falling to the ground.

“Mom,” Lu Mo complained to her. “You’re too anxious today. Senior has always had his own opinions. It’s useless to force him. Instead, it’ll only increase his disgust. I’m afraid this marriage will be delayed indefinitely again.”

Mother Lu said angrily, “This Huo Xiaoran is really not easy to control.”

Lu Mo sighed. “I’m afraid the only person in the world who can control him is Qiao An.”

Mrs. Lu said coldly, “Then let’s make an issue out of Qiao An. She’s a patient at our Jinghang Hospital now. The heavens are helping me.”

Lu Mo said proudly, “In my opinion, Qiao An is a big-breasted but brainless vase. She’s soft-hearted and believes whatever others say. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to stay by Senior’s side for the past few years.”

Mrs. Lu nodded.

That afternoon, the hospital arranged a full-body examination for Qiao An. The doctors who examined Qiao An, including the staff who recorded the data beside her, were all female doctors.

Qiao An guessed that this was the reason why Huo Xiaoran had deliberately greeted her. Thinking about how he had taken her words to heart and executed her so meticulously, Qiao An was very touched.

Why hadn’t she realized before that he was so good to her?

More and more, she realized that her old self was arrogant, self-righteous, and pretentious. Why couldn’t she listen to him and spend time studying him?

Come to think of it, she still cared too much about him. It was because she cared so much that things that involved him became irrational.

She had to change her bad habits.

As luck would have it, Qiao An ran into Mrs. Lu while she was doing a blood test. By the time she got to the front of the line, Mrs. Lu’s needle had been removed. She looked straight at Qiao An and said coldly, “Put your hand up.”
