Huo Zhou returned to the villa and quietly came to Huo Xiaoran’s side to ask the question in his heart.
“Xiaoran, don’t you love Qiao An? Why did you suddenly propose to Lu Mo? Are you really going to marry Lu Mo?”
Huo Xiaoran swirled the red wine glass in his hand, and a hint of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes. His sharp gaze swept across the Lu family not far away. Seeing them chatting happily, Huo Xiaoran’s expression became even colder.
“Yeah.”
“Why?” Huo Zhou was puzzled.
Huo Xiaoran retracted his gaze and shifted it to Huo Zhou’s face. He suddenly leaned forward slightly and leaned close to Huo Zhou. In a voice that only the two of them could hear, he said, “She schemed to marry me, so I’ll give her a big gift.”
Huo Zhou felt a chill run down his spine. Huo Xiaoran’s ruthlessness towards Lu Mo was really something to keep a distance from.
Lu Mo loved Huo Xiaoran. In order to marry Huo Xiaoran, she didn’t hesitate to hire someone to murder, pretend to be sick, and even bribe a doctor. If all these crimes were confirmed, the crime of marriage fraud would definitely send the Lu family to the abyss of hell.
As expected, when the two families were discussing the betrothal gifts, Huo Xiaoran deliberately lured Lu Mo to ask for a large sum of betrothal gifts.
Huo Xiaoran retreated in order to advance and take precautions. “Before we get married, I need to explain something to Uncle and Auntie. All my assets prior to my marriage will be given to Qiao An for free.”
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she immediately jumped up. “What? Xiaoran, did I hear wrongly? If our Lu Mo marries you, what can she get?”
“Isn’t she in love with me? If I marry her, won’t I be fulfilling her wish?” Huo Xiaoran said faintly. He was playing with his phone and had already turned on the recorder.
Mrs. Lu sneered. “Xiaoran, do you think Lu Mo married you because she likes you? If you don’t have strong assets and a prominent status, your charm will be greatly reduced. I’m afraid my Lu Mo won’t love you wholeheartedly.”
Huo Xiaoran looked at Lu Mo. “So you married me because of my assets?”
Lu Mo said aggrievedly, “Senior, we’re going to get married. After we get married, we’ll start our own small family. At that time, there will be many areas that require money. If you donate all your money to Qiao An, how will we live?”
“You’re the daughter of the Lu family. Don’t you have money for your necessities?” Huo Xiaoran asked.
Mrs. Lu said acidly, “Huo Xiaoran, don’t tell me you want to gain something for this wedding without spending a single cent?”
Huo Xiaoran dealt with whatever came his way. “Auntie, I just feel that Lu Mo and I aren’t married because we love each other. Our relationship isn’t too stable, so it’s best if we go dutch in terms of money. Otherwise, there will be too many implications when we get a divorce. If Auntie feels that it’s inappropriate, we can discuss it.”
Mrs. Lu stood up and said indignantly, “Of course it’s not appropriate. How can a couple go dutch before they get married? I don’t think you want to live a good life with Momo at all.”
Huo Xiaoran shrugged indifferently.
Mrs. Lu’s heart was about to stop. From Huo Xiaoran’s attitude, it was was obvious that he did not want to marry Lu
She sat back down heavily and discussed the conditions with Huo Xiaoran. “Xiaoran, if it weren’t for my Momo liking you, I wouldn’t have compromised and sat here to negotiate with you. How about this? The betrothal gift is 1 billion. Give 10% of the company’s shares to my Momo after the marriage.”
Huo Zhou was dumbfounded. Mother Lu’s demand made his blood boil. He just wanted to reject this excessive request.
He looked at Huo Xiaoran angrily, but he did not expect Huo Xiaoran to easily agree to Mrs. Lu’s request.
“Fine.” He pretended to be troubled, then agreed.
Mrs. Lu was slightly stunned. She did not expect him to agree so readily. She gave Lu Mo a look.
Lu Mo added, “Senior, I’ll still need jewelry and a wedding dress for the wedding. I like the wedding dress series from Four-Leaf Clover. Why don’t we take a look?”
Huo Xiaoran nodded. “Okay!”
The Four-Leaf Clover was the most expensive wedding dress company in the world. The wedding dresses inside were all limited edition and were very expensive. Coupled with jewelry, it was worth hundreds of millions.
The Lu family’s request made the Huo family, who had always wanted to keep a low profile, very unhappy.
However, it was as if Huo Xiaoran’s limbs had been broken by the Lu family. He tried his best to satisfy their shameless requests and even took the initiative to tempt them to increase their bargaining chips.
“Uncle, Auntie, don’t worry. I won’t wrong Momo. For the marriage, if you need money, draw up a list for me. I’ll get the finance department to transfer the money to you.”
Only then did Mother Lu relax.
After the wedding negotiations ended, the Lu family left happily.
Huo Zhou came to Huo Xiaoran’s side and said softly, “They increased their assets by ten billion through marriage. Xiaoran, if you really get evidence that they lied to you, they’ll probably spend the rest of their lives in jail.”
Huo Xiaoran smiled. “Hiring murderers, pretending to be sick, bribing doctors… It’s simply a heinous crime. It’s just that sending them to prison is too easy for them. I want them to regret provoking me for the rest of their lives. They’ll regret it until their intestines turn green when they hear my name.”
Huo Zhou felt a chill.
“Do you have proof?”
Huo Xiaoran said, “No, but I will soon.”
Lu Mo and Huo Xiaoran’s wedding quickly appeared on the trending searches. Lu Mo was praised by the netizens as a bride worth tens of billions. Everyone praised her luck and said that she was Huo Xiaoran’s true love.
When Qiao An saw the news on the trending topic, she felt her eyes water and her heart ache. Was Huo Xiaoran still touched by Lu Mo’s love?
That night, Huo Xiaoran suddenly came to Qiao An’s residence.
Qiao An shut him out, her small frame stretched across the door frame.
Huo Xiaoran smiled. “An’an, is this how you treat your guests?”
Qiao An’s face was stern as she said to him seriously, “Brother Xiaoran, you should learn to avoid gossip.”
Huo Xiaoran frowned. “To avoid gossip?”
Qiao An said, “You’ll soon be a married man. We will only invite gossip if you keep coming to meet me. So I hope we can… forget each other in the future.”
Her eyes reddened as she said the last words. She didn’t even have the courage to look at him.
Huo Xiaoran reached out and pinched her chin, turning her face to him. “Is it because of Xiao Ming that you want to forget about me?”
Qiao An stared at him in shock.
Then she slapped his hand away angrily. “You have no right to ask about me anymore.”
