Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qiao An looked at the screen. Huo Xiaoran’s wedding live broadcast was still ongoing, but all the images had stopped. Only a string of numbers scrolled on the screen: 11,111.
Qiao An looked at the numbers with tears flickering in her eyes. She remembered what Huo Xiaoran had said when he first confessed to her. “An’an, I want to be with you and treat you wholeheartedly. I’ll only love you for the rest of my life. My heart is very small. Since you’ve already moved in, I definitely can’t accommodate anyone else in this life. If you don’t want me, I’ll die alone. I hope you can accept me.”
Qiao An suddenly smiled.
The five ones on the screen meant that they would be together forever and that he would treat her well.
Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An had been together since they were young. He had never given up on his promise, and she would not break it.
The sun was shining outside the window.
Qiao An pulled the children and their suitcases to their feet. “Please stop here, driver. I’ll get off here.” Then she got out with the children.
“Mommy, where are we going?” the children asked, tugging at her cuffs.
Qiao An knelt down and asked them, “Do you miss Daddy?”
The children nodded quickly. “Yes.”
“Then Mommy will take you to him?”
“Yes.” The child was overjoyed.
Qiao An brought the children back to Heavenly Imperial Garden again. However, it was especially deserted today. Everyone were probably still at the wedding banquet.
Qiao An entered the house. For the first time, Qiao An felt a sense of belonging here. The flowers and trees here were all carefully put together by Huo Xiaoran. The cherry tree, the four leaf clovers, the camellia… Qiao An realized that they were all her favorite varieties.
She loved cherries.
Her pseudonym was called the Four Leaf Clover.
Camellia was her lucky flower.
Tears blurred Qiao An’s vision as she stared.
She recalled the first time she came to the Heavenly Imperial Garden. At that time, when she saw Lu Mo walking out, she subconsciously treated Lu Mo as the mistress of this place, so she didn’t dare to look around, afraid that her jealousy would give herself away…
If she had taken a few more glances at the garden at that time, perhaps she would have guessed Brother Xiaoran’s thoughts long ago.
It was her carelessness that had caused them to miss a few years.
But that would never happen again.
There was no life in the empty house.
Qiao An cut a few camellias and placed them in a vase.
When she was bored, she wanted to send a message to Huo Xiaoran, but when she thought of today’s wedding, it was a mess. He was probably busy dealing with those matters.
And the only thing she could do to help him was clarify his affair and save him from public condemnation.
Soon, Qiao An posted a small essay with her sharp writing. Because it was signed by Qiao An, it was immediately trending. The essay was as follows:
“I’m Qiao An.
The Qiao An who had an affair during her marriage.
I had made a mistake and I do not advocate that the young follow my example.
My union with Brother Xiaoran was not what we wanted. At that time, he was drunk and unconscious. When he hugged me and called my name, I wanted to push him away. However, I was in the recovery stage at that time and didn’t have the strength to resist him. Moreover, I admitted that as a fujoshi, I couldn’t resist the fatal temptation of his beautiful face. So I gave up resisting.
So we made a mistake.
10,000 words were omitted here.
After the fact, if you ask me why I kept the children. It was because I promised him a home.
It’s not a subjective mistake, but a mistake is a mistake. I have to apologize to everyone for setting a very bad example.
Also, a reminder: If you can’t hold your liquor, don’t drink. Drinking is messy. And don’t jump off a building when you’re in a desperate situation. Damn, it hurts too much.
Finally, if there’s anything else you want to know, feel free to send me a private message. I’ll tell you everything I know.
Don’t believe the rumors. Don’t spread them.”
… .
This small essay was both humorous and sincere. However, the audience was swayed by Qiao An’s sharp literary style. Perhaps it was because Qiao An had confessed her most embarrassing side, no one paid attention to Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran’s failure at all. Instead, they admired Qiao An’s frankness.
Many people left messages with Qiao An. “Sister Qiao An, please add the 10,000 words you omitted. Oh, I really want to see how the domineering CEO dotes on his wife online.”
Qiao An replied, “Uh, it’s been a while, and it was my first time. Forgive me for being so nervous my brain jammed. I’ll tell you next time I have experience.”
“What a cute Sister Qiao An. No wonder she’s the spokesperson for a contemporary comedy romance novel.”
… .
Just as Huo Xiaoran was looking around for Qiao An but to no avail and felt like he had fallen into a dark abyss, Xiao Yue jumped up excitedly with her phone.
“Qiao An is here.”
Everyone’s eyes lit up.
Their gazes shot to the door, but they didn’t see Qiao An. They all looked accusingly at the lying Xiao Yue.
Xiao Yue raised her phone. “I said she’s in the forum…”
Before she could finish her sentence, everyone turned on their phones excitedly.
Huo Xiaoran was so excited that his fingers were trembling. Perhaps he was too excited, so his movements were especially slow. When the others saw the essay, they looked at him gloatingly.
Huo Xiaoran immediately felt that something was amiss.
He grabbed Xiao Yue’s phone and read quickly…
Uh, Qiao An’s little essay was so candid that it made him want to bury his head in the ground.
Xiao Yue even teased him. “I also want to see those 10,000 words that were omitted.”
Huo Xiaoran glared at her with a red face. “Get lost.”
Huo Zhou and the others couldn’t help but laugh.
Huo Zhou patted his shoulder and teased him, “Qiao An said that she’ll add these 10,000 words the next time she has experience… I hope you won’t disappoint the netizens.”
Huo Xiaoran retorted, “Do you still want me to live?”
As it turned out, under Qiao An’s literary efforts, Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An’s popularity soared, especially their related online accounts. Their fans instantly increased by tens of millions.
Qiao An even called out on the Internet, “Don’t add my number. You’re forcing me to live-stream myself as a rich woman.”
“Sister An’an, start a live broadcast… We want to see you and Brother-in-law show off your love.”
“Brother-in-law still owes me a certificate.” Qiao An typed a lot of sad exclamation marks.
Xiao Yue tore at Huo Xiaoran’s hand excitedly. “Cousin, hurry up and say something. The netizens are waiting for you.”
Huo Xiaoran looked at her incredulously. “You’re holding my hand.”
Xiao Yue let go awkwardly. She leaned her head over and saw Huo Xiaoran typing quickly…
“An’an, as long as you go home, not to mention a certificate, I’ll give you my life.”
