Chapter 101: Xiao Ran Apologizes, Qiao An Insults Him

When Qiao An heard that their wedding date is drawing near, she felt a dense pain in her heart.

It was time for her love for Li Xiaoran to end. Qiao An stood up and said a few dry blessings before ending the pointless interview.

Her colleagues stared at her in disbelief. “That’s it?”

Qiao An looked at them adorably. “What else?”

Li Ping stuffed the camera into Qiao An’s hands. “Forget it, you film it and I’ll do the interview. Qiao An, go buy a drink for Doctor Li and Doctor Lu.”

Qiao An accepted it readily. “Okay.”

Walking quickly out of the neurosurgery building, Qiao An let out a long breath.

This place represented nightmares to her.

When she jumped down from the ruined building, she actually didn’t want to die. It was just that when Li Zecheng left her to the kidnappers, she was too afraid that the kidnappers would hurt her, so she jumped down in order to protect her innocence.

That incident had always been a disgrace to her.

She seemed to have been branded with the symbol of cowardice.

This wasn’t the brave and optimistic Qiao An at all.

Qiao An didn’t want to go back and face Li Xiaoran and Lu Mo, so she wandered outside for a long time. In the end, she bought two cups of milk tea and returned to Jinghang Hospital.

When she returned, Li Xiaoran and Lu Mo were already gone. Her colleague complained to her, “Qiao An, why are you so slow? Doctor Li and Doctor Lu have left.”

Qiao An secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It was better not to face them.

The next day, the interview with Li Xiaoran and Lu Mo was released. When Qiao An saw the article, she was so severely hurt that she couldn’t breathe.

The title was “The love journey between Li Xiaoran and his assistant, one of the ten youngest outstanding figures in the neurosurgery department.”

The interview started with Li Xiaoran’s career and focused on Li Xiaoran’s treatment of the girl who fell off the building as the representative story. It praised his exquisite medical skills and his care for the patient.

While not she wasn’t named, all the descriptions of the incident matched Qiao An’s fall.

At this moment, Ah Cui was hugging Qiao An excitedly and chattering about the details of yesterday’s interview. “An’an, so you’re Dr. Li’s patient. I’m so envious and jealous of you. Dr. Li actually took care of you personally for more than two months. You’re really blessed.”

Only then did Qiao An realize that the interviewee had even revealed her name. However, the writer had deliberately hidden her name to save unnecessary trouble.

Qiao An’s disappointment in Li Xiaoran was like ice entering every cell in her body.

He actually stepped on her sore spot to climb up the ladder for his worthless fame and fortune.

The supervisor called for a meeting and praised the article “Medical Lovers”. He even said that Li Xiaoran was especially famous in the medical world. After this article was published, it would definitely break the record.

Qiao An imagined the story of her jumping off a building. At that moment, her heart was filled with snow.

In the evening, when her colleagues left, their gazes at her were filled with sympathy.

Cui had already told the rest of the company the truth that Qiao An was the main character in the story.

Qiao An felt especially uncomfortable under all kinds of scrutinizing gazes.

After work, she went to the bar. She didn’t care about the child in her stomach and only wanted to get drunk.

She asked for a lot of wine, all of which were extremely pure hard liquor. When the waiter brought the wine, Qiao An looked at the wine and hesitated for a moment.

She felt extremely sad for the child in her womb. He had such an terrible father and such an irresponsible mother. He definitely wouldn’t want to come to this world.

With that thought in mind, Qiao An grabbed the bottle and poured it into her mouth.

A slender and beautiful hand suddenly reached over and snatched her wine bottle.

Qiao An looked angrily at the man who had suddenly appeared in front of him, a dark viciousness surging in her eyes. “You’re really haunting me.”

Li Xiaoran’s expression was a little unnatural. All the encounters were man-made.

Ever since he found out that he had hurt Qiao An, he had been uneasy all day. He was really worried that Qiao An would suffer a huge blow and do something stupid.

Therefore, he would follow her secretly when he was free these few days.

“Qiao An, you’re pregnant. Drinking is not good for the child,” Li Xiaoran said.

Qiao An’s face was ferocious. She pretended to hate this child and said angrily, “This child has a beast for father. With such poor genes, I don’t think he deserves to come to this world. So don’t worry, I’ll abort him sooner or later.”

Li Xiaoran’s eyes were filled with suspicion. “Do you hate Li Zecheng that much?”

“Since you hate him, you shouldn’t have slept with him in the first place! Qiao An, the child is innocent. You’re the child’s mother. You have an obligation to protect your child.”

Qiao An roared at him with red eyes, “I hate his father. How can I be good to him?”

“What did Li Zecheng do to make you unhappy again?” Li Xiaoran asked helplessly.

Qiao An was dumbfounded.

She suddenly woke up. No one knew that the child in her womb belonged to Li Xiaoran. His father could only be Li Zecheng, if only in name.

Qiao An pushed past him and staggered outside.

Li Xiaoran caught up to her and held her hand. “An’an, I have something to tell you.”

Qiao An struggled to pull his hand out of his palm, then looked at him with disgust and disdain. “What are you trying to say?”

“An’an, I… I won’t take revenge on you. So, don’t worry that I’ll hurt you…” The usually iron-toothed person was so nervous that he stuttered.

Qiao An sneered. “Li Xiaoran, is this also one of your plans to take revenge on me? You really went through a lot of trouble to make me fall in love with you.”

Qiao An poked his heart. “You’re stepping on my sore spot to climb up. Is this your sincerity in apologizing? Li Xiaoran, do you think I’m stupid?”

Li Xiaoran looked confused and said, “When did I step on your sore spot to climb up? Qiao An, I didn’t.”

Qiao An laughed bitterly. Humans never shed tears until they saw the coffin.

She turned around, leaving Li Xiaoran alone.

Li Xiaoran was puzzled. “With my current status, Qiao An, why should I pursue fame and fortune?”

Huo Zhou suddenly walked over and saw Li Xiaoran’s dark expression. He comforted him. “Why? Are you fighting with her again?”

Li Xiaoran sighed and looked worriedly at the white wine on the table. He said to Huo Zhou, “It’s not me. Li Zecheng quarreled with her.”

Huo Zhou said, “But she’s not happy, and neither are you.”

Li Xiaoran gritted his teeth and said, “Find out where Li Zecheng has been fooling around these past few days.”
