Chapter 107: Xiaoran’s Loyalty
Li Tingting was flattered. “You… want to give them all to me?”
Qiao An nodded. “All for you. You can raise your head high in front of the Li family’s sisters-in-law in the future.”
Li Tingting was extremely touched. She looked at Qiao An steadily and suddenly made a major decision. “Qiao An, since you treat me as your best friend and trust me so much, I’ll help you this time. Li Zecheng’s large amount of money flow is partly through financial institutions. You can force an investigation through the court. As for the rest, Li Zecheng’s transfer method is very obscure. I’ll screenshot the evidence for you later.”
Qiao An was stunned. Li Tingting had kept evidence of Li Zecheng’s transfer of assets. It was obvious that she was wary of the third branch.
Li Tingting explained, “As you know, a family like ours will only become their pawn if we don’t have any self-protection tricks.”
Qiao An also knew that Li Tingting’s life in the Li family was very difficult. Although she didn’t lack money, the various families in the Li family wanted to use her for a business marriage.
Li Tingting’s first love lasted three whole years. When she was about to get married, she realized that the man was Huang Yushu’s nephew. Li Tingting endured the pain and cut her losses in time.
From then on, Li Tingting hated the third branch.
Qiao An said, “Tingting, if you need my help in the future, just let me know.”
Li Tingting nodded. “I understand.”
The two of them came out of the bar one after another to hide.
When Li Tingting left the bar, she realized that a car had been following her. Li Tingting parked the car at a spacious place on the street.
Then she kicked the door open, got out, and walked to the car behind. She kicked the door open and roared irritably, “Open the door? Open the door. Why are you following me?”
The car door slid open. Li Tingting was dumbfounded when she saw the driver.
“Brother, why is it you?”
“What did Qiao An tell you?” Li Xiaoran went straight to the point.
Li Tingting said, “I can’t say.”
Li Xiaoran handed her a black card. “There’s 20 million inside.”
Li Tingting immediately changed her mind. “Qiao An looked for me to investigate how Li Zecheng transferred his assets.”
Li Xiaoran asked, “Then will you help her?”
Li Tingting nodded and said, “You know that I’ve always been narrow-minded. Li Zecheng bullied others and doted on his mistress. No one can stand his evil deeds, so I decided to help Qiao An.”
Li Xiaoran knows this sister the best. Although this sister is a little righteous, she’s very pragmatic. She won’t interfere in the affairs of the third branch for no reason and cause trouble for herself.”
“What did Qiao An give you?” Li Xiaoran asked.
Li Tingting smiled and said, “I really can’t lie to you. She transferred her shares to me.”
Li Xiaoran was shocked.
Qiao An loved money. How could she give up on this golden mountain so easily?
Li Tingting explained, “She said that Old Master signed a subsidiary agreement with her. If the child can’t be born safely, her shares must be transferred to the Li family’s descendants.”
Li Xiaoran murmured, “Then she must have tried everything to save the child’s life.”
Li Tingting raised a finger. “Brother, you don’t understand Qiao An at all. Qiao An hates Li Zecheng so much. How could she keep his child? She’s just using the child as a talisman. After she successfully divorces Li Zecheng, she’ll abort the child.”
Li Xiaoran’s expression changed instantly. “Is she crazy? The child is old. If she induces labor again, it will be a destruction to her body. Moreover, it’s extremely cruel to the child.”
Li Xiaoran closed the car door and started the engine to leave.
It was late at night in the capital. Qiao An walked aimlessly in the cold night without any sense of belonging.
A luxury car suddenly stopped in front of her and Li Xiaoran got out.
“Qiao An.”
Qiao An retreated in shock and looked at Li Xiaoran in shock.
She really felt that this fellow’s would not leave her alone.
“You want to divorce Li Zecheng, right?” Li Xiaoran forced her into a corner.
Qiao An’s face was cold. “None of your business.”
Li Xiaoran grabbed her hand and said anxiously and angrily, “You don’t want the child either, right?”
Qiao An fell silent.
This child was hers and Li Xiaoran’s. Actually, she wanted to discuss with him about the child, but she couldn’t.
Li Xiaoran advised Qiao An earnestly, “If you’re determined not to have a child, go and abort it now. If you don’t abort it for a day, it will grow bit by bit. When it splits into small hands and feet, when it has a heartbeat, it will hurt.”
Li Xiaoran’s words pierced Qiao An’s heart like needles. Qiao An was timid and retreated.
Li Xiaoran said, “Moreover, the older the child is, the greater the damage to your body from the abortion surgery. An’an, don’t be willful. Listen to me obediently and abort the child tomorrow.”
Qiao An looked at Li Xiaoran, her eyes bloodshot. She didn’t know if Li Xiaoran would still be so enthusiastic about her aborting the child if he knew that it was his.
She opened her mouth. She wanted to ask him for an answer, but her shame made her shut her mouth.
“I’ll think about it,” Qiao An said weakly.
Li Xiaoran regained his composure and said earnestly, “Qiao An, abort the child. I can be your amulet.”
Qiao An stared blankly at Li Xiaoran…
He had a way of melting her heart that was as hard as iron. But she was also awake and could never trust his words. She was afraid it was just a mirage.
Li Xiaoran said firmly, “Don’t you just want Li Zecheng’s money? I guarantee that he will give it to you.”
Qiao An felt insulted that Li Xiaoran decided that she was a woman who was greedy for money.
She pushed him away angrily and left.
Li Xiaoran sighed heavily. He felt that Qiao An’s temper was unpredictable. It was really difficult to please her.
He followed her in his car and didn’t leave until Qiao An returned to the Star Palace.
Qiao An went home and sat in bed all night.
She recalled Li Xiaoran’s words: The child is growing up day by day. Can she really bear to do an induction operation when he has hands and feet?
Qiao An sniffled, tears streaming down her face.
The next day, Qiao An applied for leave from the company. She went to the largest private hospital in the country and registered for an obstetrician.
She told the obstetrician about her dilemma. “Doctor, on the day I slept with him, my husband was drunk. Can I still have this child?”
The doctor glanced at her accusingly. “How long has it been?”
“Three and a half months.”
“If you want it, then do a full examination.”
Qiao An accepted the doctor’s advice.
She did a noninvasive DNA test and a four-dimensional color ultrasound. The doctor told her to go home and wait for the results.
