Chapter 257 257. Sowing discord and misunderstanding Qiao An
After clearing his throat, Father Lu began to slander Qiao An's honor again: "Then Qiao An used to be the daughter-in-law of the Li family. Her two-year marriage to Li Zecheng caused a stir in the whole city. Then Qiao An is so smart.
, she ruined Li Zecheng's reputation and made Li Zecheng clean up and leave the house. She is a woman who is not easy to mess with. Xiaoran gets too close to her, and I am afraid that he will fall into a big fight like his nephew.

Xiaoran is now engaged, but instead she is extremely concerned about Qiao An's affairs and leaves her fiancée aside. It would not be nice to hear about this."
Mr. Huo patiently explained to Father Lu: "Dean Lu, I have heard a little bit about this matter. I'm really sorry for causing you to worry too much. However, the relationship between my Xiaoran and Qiao An is not what you imagined.
. He is just grateful for Qiao An’s help to him in the past few years, and it is moral to support Qiao An when Qiao An is in trouble.”
Father Lu said: "Mr. Huo, I also know that Xiaoran is a person who values love and justice and repays kindness. If his help and support to Qiao An are reasonable, we can accept it. But...
...When Lu Mo and Qiao An were hospitalized at the same time, he spent more time in Qiao An's ward than in his fiancée's ward. And I heard that he stayed overnight with Qiao An last night. These behaviors
, it can be explained by more than just repaying a favor."
Mr. Huo's face immediately turned as black as coal.
Huo Xiaoran stayed at Qiao An's Huamancheng. As a engaged man, this matter was indeed very inappropriate. If it was deliberately amplified by the media, Huo Xiaoran's public image would definitely be affected.
Mr. Huo could only comfort Father Lu: "Don't worry, when Xiaoran comes back, I will escort him to give you an explanation."
Father Lu was very pleased to receive the support of Mr. Huo. However, attacking Huo Xiaoran was not his original intention after all. He said sincerely: "Mr., I know what Xiaoran is like, and I believe that Xiaoran will never violate the law."
Ethical and moral matters. However, people who don’t know the truth can only see the whole picture at a glance. I am afraid that they will spread rumors and misunderstand Xiaoran. Xiaoran is the heir of my Beijing Airlines Hospital, and I still hope that he will take over the hospital.
Carry it forward. So we must not let him be stained."
Father Lu's last words really touched Mr. Huo. Because Mr. Huo also wanted to hand over half of the family business to Xiaoran. He also wanted to maintain Xiaoran's public image.
Therefore, Mr. Lu and Mr. Huo have the same views. They have reached a consensus and communication has become easier.
Father Lu said: "Old sir, in my opinion, Xiaoran and Momo are not too young, and they have been in love for a long time. Why don't we adults work together on a lucky day to help them set a wedding date?"
."
Mr. Huo was led into the sewer by Father Lu, and he immediately nodded: "That's fine."
Father Lu achieved his goal and left happily.
After Father Lu left, Mr. Huo's face became extremely solemn. He said angrily:
"Why is this child Xiaoran so unclear? Although Qiao An is beautiful and intelligent, her love history is so complicated. Since she was once his nephew-in-law, he should not get involved with Qiao An. This is against ethics.
Isn’t he afraid of being accused by thousands of people and reviled by thousands of people?”
Mr. Huo's words revealed his unspeakable disappointment in Huo Xiaoran.
Mrs. Huo said worriedly: "It's just that Xiaoran, like his mother, is a very independent person. If we decide the wedding date for him in private, we are afraid that he will become rebellious, which will be counterproductive."<
/p>
Mr. Huo said solemnly: "Honey, in order to prevent Xiaoran and Qiao An's old relationship from rekindling and causing a big mistake. In my opinion, we must help our children finalize the wedding date as soon as possible. Anyway, Xiaoran and Lu Mo are already engaged, and this wedding is also
It’s a sure thing.”
Mrs. Huo pulled him next to her and motioned for him to sit down. Mr. Huo sat down next to her obediently, then turned his head and looked at the old lady quietly.
The old lady said earnestly: "You have forgotten that Xiaoran's mother is also an extremely smart and steady person. But when it comes to love, they are reckless infatuators. I'm afraid that Xiaoran loves Qiao An,
He will not be happy if he marries Lu Mo."
Mr. Huo originally had a good impression of Qiao An. He admired Qiao An's work ability. However, Qiao An's complicated love history put him off.
"He doesn't have to marry Lu Mo, but he just can't be with Qiao An." Mr. Huo said decisively.
Mrs. Huo said angrily: "Do you want fame? Or do you want the child's life? Have you forgotten how his mother died back then? It's because we want to save face and don't want her to marry a bad old man, and we even cut off the relationship.
Come and threaten her. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be in despair.”
Mrs. Huo started sobbing again when she said this.
Mr. Huo fell silent.
Mrs. Huo wept secretly, as if she had made some huge decision. The old lady raised the back of her hand to wipe her tears, and her eyes that were yellow due to old age shined with a certain light.
"Since it is my Xiaoran who is obsessed with Qiao An, I want to destroy Xiaoran, so I can only start with Qiao An."
Mr. Huo thought that Mrs. Huo just said a careless sigh. Who would have thought that Mrs. Huo was as bold as before, and she immediately ordered her assistant to make an appointment with Qiao An.
The next day, the old lady came to Huamancheng with a solemn expression and knocked on the door of Qiao An's house.
Qiao An was busy with too many things recently, so she couldn't sleep very well. She finally fell asleep in the early hours of the morning, and just when she was snoring, she heard a loud knock on the door.
Qiao An opened her eyes and listened for a while. After she was sure that the sound would not disappear automatically, she got up helplessly.
She took out the anti-wolf spray from under the pillow, and then tiptoed towards the door. Through the peephole, she saw an old woman. She was dressed extremely dignifiedly. Although her hair was gray, she was in good spirits.
Qiao An immediately opened the door.
She stared blankly at the uninvited guest outside the door. Just as she was about to open her mouth to ask something, she heard the old lady's cold voice: "Are you Qiao An?"
"I am."
The old lady walked straight to the back room. She treated this place as her own home, walked straight to the sofa and sat down.
Qiao An was confused. She was sure that she didn't know this old woman at all.
She tightened the anti-wolf spray in her hand.
The old lady's eyes fell on her self-defense weapon, her eyes darkened: "It seems that you have offended a lot of people. But I am not a bad person. I am Xiaoran's grandma."
