BXBX NOVEL Chapter 373 - 373 Promise
Qiao An stared at the ceiling.
Then, she took out her phone and was about to text Li Ze’en when she saw that Li Ze’en’s Moments had been updated.
There was a photo hanging on her Moments. It was a photo of the mistress standing on the top floor looking for death.
Li Ze’en left a message. “My mother jumped off a building, and my father agreed to transfer the company to my mother. In the end, the vixen wanted to learn from my mother and act pitiful to gain my father’s sympathy. She learned this trick well. Unfortunately, she forgot that she was the wrong party.”
For some reason, this soul-stirring scene turned into a boring melodrama in Qiao An’s eyes.
She instantly had no motivation to get out of bed. Instead, she let herself fall asleep.
In her dream, she dreamed of Qianqian again.
That gentle, beautiful girl.
She jumped off the train with her. She held tightly to Qiao An, who couldn’t move. After running for a long time, she suddenly fell to the ground.
Qiao An turned around and realized that she had been shot.
But with tenacious willpower, she said to Qiao An, “Girl, I can’t do it anymore. Cut open my stomach immediately. I have a seven-month-old baby in my stomach. They say she’ll die. I think she can definitely survive bravely like me.”
“Also, there’s a chip here. Take good care of it. Don’t hand it over easily. It’s filled with undercover lists. Once the list is leaked, they’ll be in danger. The anti-narcotics profession will face unprecedented challenges.”
After Qianqian said this, Qiao An was dumbfounded.
Only then did she realize that Qianqian’s stomach was wrapped in layers of gauze.
Qiao An shook her head desperately. “I won’t deliver your baby! Girl, you have to live. I’ll take you to a doctor immediately.”
However, Qianqian did not take her suggestion. She actually took out a sharp knife from her boot and aimed it at her stomach.
… .
“Ah…” Qiao An woke from the nightmare again.
Huo Xiaoran got up and hugged her tightly. “An’an, don’t be afraid.”
Qiao An felt a chill run down her spine. Beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.
After these two terrible nightmares, she seemed to be able to piece together most of those fragmented memories.
Qianqian was Xiao Ming’s wife.
She did two things before she died. One was to give her the undercover list. The other was to trust her with Joey.
She remembered that she had cried that day, but Qianqian had smiled and told her amidst the pain of blood and tears, “Lone Wolf said that as soon as he saw you, he knew that you were a girl with amazing willpower. You could endure the natural healing of wounds for your own child. So he chose you.”
“Girl, on behalf of all the narcotics fighters, I give you my high respects. Because you bravely chose to take on our most difficult and tortuous relay.”
… .
Qiao An threw herself into Huo Xiaoran’s arms and wailed.
Huo Xiaoran accompanied her quietly. He knew that Qiao An’s secret was a heavy promise.
He couldn’t give her any pressure to do whatever she wanted. He had to respect any choice she made. And all he could do was accompany her.
Qiao An cried for a short time and quickly stopped.
She felt ashamed. Compared to Qianqian’s courage, she was really too ashamed.
She should not have collapsed like that on a peaceful day.
“Brother Xiaoran, I need to be alone.” She had to remember those fragmented fragments as soon as possible. Because of her cowardice, she chose to forget those images that were too cruel and bloody.
Now she had to recover as quickly as possible. That way, she could make a better, wiser choice.
Of course, Huo Xiaoran supported her wholeheartedly. “An’an, I’ll apply to be discharged. When we get home, I’ll give you space.”
Qiao An looked at Huo Xiaoran gratefully.
Huo Xiaoran smiled at her sweetly. This smile was like thousands of pear blossoms.
“An’an, don’t be afraid. Brother Xiaoran will always be with you and support you.”
His expression was extremely determined and serious.
Qiao An knew she should believe him. It was just like how Lone Wolf had chosen to believe her in the vast sea of people.
“Yeah.”
The next morning, Huo Xiaoran was discharged from the hospital.
When Qiao An was discharged from the hospital, they bumped into Li Tingfeng and that woman at the entrance.
The woman outside looked extremely dispirited today.
She leaned softly in Li Tingfeng’s arms and cried, “My son.”
Qiao An wanted to ignore them, but her self-restraint prevented her from doing so. She walked over and met them.
Unexpectedly, when that woman saw Qiao An, she held Qiao An’s hand and kept criticizing Third Madam.
“Qiao An, come and be the judge. Why is your third sister-in-law so vicious? She instigated Li Ze’en to cause trouble at my daughter’s school, causing my daughter to suffer from depression and stay at home all day to neglect her studies.”
“And my son. That’s my best child. He abandoned his parents’ work in a fit of anger and chose to go overseas alone.”
“Do you think our family is in this state because of Third Madam? She knows how to act pitiful. As soon as she jumped off the building, some people became soft-hearted and rushed to give her everything. Why?”
These last words were clearly meant for Li Tingfeng.
Li Tingfeng lowered his head in frustration. Qiao An glanced at Li Tingfeng and smiled sarcastically.
Men wanted to flaunt when they were young and took on lovers. But when they were old, they realized that no tigress was to be trifled with, so they could only be sandwiched.
He must be regretting it now.
Qiao An didn’t persuade the mistress. Instead, she reminded Third Brother, “Third Brother, fortunately, Third Sister-in-law’s IQ isn’t quite high. If it were a smart woman, she would have sued you in court. You’ll go to jail for bigamy.”
Then, she turned to look at the woman. “And you, if I were you, I wouldn’t have gone to the Li family to force the first wife to abdicate. As a mistress, everything you eat, live, and use belongs to the first wife. The first wife is magnanimous to have tolerated you for so many years.”
“Now, because of your greed, the first wife can’t tolerate you. Soon, your property, your gorgeous clothes, and your jewelry will be returned to her. And you might be in debt.”
“Who are you kidding?” the woman said.
