Lu Mo’s emotions were unstable, and her body began to tremble. The doctor beside him begged Qiao An, “Miss Qiao An, don’t agitate her. If you can contact Huo Xiaoran, please call him over.”

Qiao An hesitated slightly.

The doctor continued, “Miss Qiao An, I don’t know what feud you have with Lu Mo, but you have to know that the highest human rights are nothing more than life. You can’t leave her in the lurch.”

Qiao An glared at Lu Mo angrily. “The highest human rights are nothing more than life? Hehe, Lu Mo, should I save you? You almost killed me and the children in my belly back then. I don’t think I have a reason to save you.”

The doctor didn’t expect Lu Mo and Qiao An to have such a grudge. He didn’t dare to hope that Qiao An would save her anymore and could only sigh.

!!

Then Qiao An’s phone rang. Qiao An answered the call, and Huo Xiaoran’s gentle voice sounded. “Baby, what are you doing?”

When Lu Mo heard Huo Xiaoran’s voice, her pupils dilated, and her eyes were filled with disbelief.

The voice was so gentle it filtered out all his edge and coldness. So he was so gentle around Qiao An.

It was a tenderness he’d never felt for her.

Qiao An looked at Lu Mo, not knowing how to answer Huo Xiaoran.

“Brother Xiaoran… I…”

“Yes? Is this… constipation?”

Qiao An blushed. “Don’t be ridiculous. There are so many people around.”

Huo Xiaoran frowned. “Where are you?”

“I…”

At this moment, Lu Mo suddenly shouted, “Senior… Senior …” After shouting, she started crying again.

Huo Xiaoran vaguely heard Lu Mo’s voice and cursed, “Shit!”

Then he told Qiao An sternly, “Stay away from her. I’ll be right there.”

When Lu Mo heard that Huo Xiaoran was coming over, she felt a little better. She began to tidy up her clothes and appearance.

Seeing how careful she was, Qiao An didn’t know what to feel at that moment. She felt that Lu Mo’s love for Huo Xiaoran was indeed quite deep.

It was just that her love was too self-centered.

She felt a little regretful. If Lu Mo didn’t love Xiaoran so much, perhaps she wouldn’t have gone astray. Perhaps she would still be the high and mighty daughter of the dean.

Huo Xiaoran rushed to the hospital as fast as he could. When he came out of the elevator, he ran over like the wind.

“An’an.” He was heading straight for Qiao An. Then his gaze checked Qiao An up, down, front, back, left, right, several times.

“Is everything all right?” His concern was palpable.

Qiao An saw the beads of sweat seeping from his forehead and felt sorry for him. She raised her hand to wipe them away. “Why are you in such a hurry?” she chided. “You have to be careful on the way.”

Lu Mo saw how loving the two of them were. Huo Xiaoran’s eyes were filled with Qiao An and he didn’t even look at her. She was extremely sad.

“Senior,” she called timidly.

Only then did Huo Xiaoran shift his cold gaze to her. “Lu Mo, I have nothing to do with you anymore. Whether it’s your love for me or my hatred for you, I decided to let bygones be bygones the day you went to prison. Why are you still pestering my An’an?”

His words were all about protecting Qiao An, which made Lu Mo very sad.

“Senior, I love you with all my heart, just like you love Qiao An with all your heart. Why are you so heartless to me? You destroyed my home and tried to send me and my mother to prison. How can you be so ruthless?”

Huo Xiaoran looked at Lu Mo’s complaint coldly. His cold face cracked from anger. “If you hadn’t done so many evil things, you wouldn’t have come to this point. It’s not that I’m heartless, but that you’re not responsible for your life.”

Lu Mo cried and shook his head. “No, I love you too much. Because of love, I was blinded. Senior, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have loved you. If there’s still a next life, I really don’t dare to love you anymore.”

Huo Xiaoran said with red eyes, “If there’s a next life, I hope I never meet you. This way, my An’an won’t get injured during her pregnancy and won’t have to suffer the pain of being buried alive. She would not have been alone for so long either.”

Lu Mo roared, “You only have Qiao An in your heart, but have you ever had me? You’re loyal to her, but you’re extremely heartless to me. Senior, don’t you feel any guilt towards me?”

Huo Xiaoran roared, “Guilt? What right do you have to make me feel guilty towards you? If you hadn’t pretended to be Qiao An that morning, I wouldn’t have misunderstood that Qiao An’s child wasn’t mine. I would have taken responsibility for my mistake early on and protected Qiao An and my children. Do you have the cheek to make me feel guilty now? My guilt is only for Qiao An and my children.”

Lu Mo was stunned by Huo Xiaoran’s anger.

Huo Xiaoran lost control of his emotions, which were a mixture of anger and guilt. Qiao An instantly understood why Huo Xiaoran wanted to marry Lu Mo at all costs.

It was because his heart ached for her and the children’s suffering, and he was filled with guilt and self-blame for her and the children. This gave him an intense obsession with getting back at the culprit.

Qiao An’s eyes instantly turned red.

All her pain over the years had been transferred to Xiao Ran.

She hugged him tightly and comforted him. “Brother Xiaoran, it’s all in the past.”

Huo Xiaoran slowly calmed down under Qiao An’s comfort.

However, he couldn’t bear to give Lu Mo any patience. He held Qiao An’s hand and was about to leave.

“An’an, whether she lives or dies has nothing to do with us. Let’s go.”

Qiao An glanced at the psychiatrist. “Brother Xiaoran, instead of pitying her, let’s pity these angels in white.”

Huo Xiaoran smiled faintly.

Qiao An sympathized with these white-clad angels because he was once one of them It was because when he was a doctor, he had tried to dissuade patients who wanted to die just as much as they did… At that time, he had carefully excluded all the factors that stimulated patients.

Huo Xiaoran turned around and walked to Lu Mo. “I heard that your mother took all the blame? You’re free?”

Lu Mo looked at him in despair. “So what? I deliberately ran out because I wanted to see you one last time. But after seeing you today, I realized that you’re still so heartless to me. I might as well not see you.”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Your parents really dote on you. They don’t hesitate to sacrifice their lives to pave a path for you to freedom. Whether you cherish their wishes is your choice.”

At this moment, Lu Mo fell silent.

Tears streamed down her face.

Huo Xiaoran continued, “You only care about loving yourself, but you make the people who love you pay with their life. Lu Mo, you don’t know love at all. Who in this world dares to love you?”

“If you’re still grateful for your parents’ love for you, then live on.”
