Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce-Chapter 590 - On the Brink of Death
590 On the Brink of Death
Li Xiaoran looked at him in shock. While all other parents were concerned about their children’s college entrance examination, his father did not care about his college entrance examination at all.
He did not care if he did well. He did not care if he took the test or not. At that moment, Li Xiaoran knew that his father did not regard him as his child.
It was also because of that deep understanding that even when his depression relapsed during his university days, and he didn’t have the money to treat it, he would hold on alone. Fortunately, he met An’an.
Now that he thought about it, he also felt that he was very childish at that time.
!!
Old Master Li was his adoptive father. He had never accepted him as his son emotionally. Yet he actually hoped that he would have a trace of humanity towards him?
All his charity to him was probably just compensation for his guilt toward his mother.
Now, the old man was finally approaching the end of his life.
His selfish life was finally coming to an end. 𝒇𝘳ℯe𝙬e𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝒆𝗹. c૦𝑚
Should he visit him?
Huo Xiaoran fell into a dilemma.
Qiao An vaguely sensed that Xiaoran was not asleep. When she opened her eyes, she saw him staring at the ceiling with wide eyes.
“What’s wrong?” Qiao An asked with concern.
“Old Master, he’s about to die. Second Brother said that he wanted to see me before he died,” Huo Xiaoran said emotionlessly as if it had nothing to do with him.
Qiao An was furious. “He defended his unfilial descendants until his death. Now that he wants to see you, he just wants to expel his guilt and have the face to see Mother Xinping after he dies?”
Huo Xiaoran pulled Qiao An into his arms. “Yes, he’s been so selfish his entire life.”
Qiao An said, “Are you going to see him, then?”
Huo Xiaoran said, “I’ll go. There are some things I’ve held back for my entire life. If I don’t say them to him, I’m afraid I won’t have a chance.”
Qiao An said, “Then go.”
The two of them got out of bed and washed up quickly. Qiao An took out a black dress from the closet, but after some thought, she deliberately changed into festive clothes.
She also gave Huo Xiaoran a matching outfit.
Then, Qiao An sent a few messages to Huo Zhou and Xiao Ming. The two noble young masters immediately followed her instructions and gathered at Qiao An’s door in their luxurious cars.
After Huo Xiaoran came out, he was very surprised to see Huo Zhou’s car ferrying the elders of the Huo family and Xiao Ming’s car ferrying the elders of the Xiao family.
“An’an, this is…”
Qiao An smiled slyly. “Old Master’s lifespan is coming to an end. They are all going to see Old Master Li in a humanitarian spirit. After all, Old Master raised you. They’re grateful to him.”
Huo Xiaoran didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “If Old Master sees them, he’ll probably die.”
Qiao An’s eyes were filled with anger. What she wanted was for Old Master Li to die with grievances. She wanted him to realize that he had once abused the successor of the Huo family.
She also wanted him to understand that from the moment he treated Xiaoran coldly, the Li family was destined to be suppressed by the Huo family for the rest of their lives. Even if the Li family seemed to have a small turnaround, the Huo family would do their best to help Xiaoran revive the Angel Group.
This was the great power of family unity and kinship.
The Li family did not have it, so Old Master Li did not get the prosperity he wanted until his death.
When Li Zecheng brought Rong Rong back to the Li family, Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran appeared at the same time with their good friends, Xiao Ming and Huo Zhou.
Li Zecheng was surprised to see the other party’s mighty team.
“Uncle, what do you mean by this turnout?”
Huo Xiaoran walked towards Li Zecheng and whispered into his ear, “I heard that your protective umbrella is about to die. Our Huo family’s relatives and friends are here to congratulate you.”
Li Zecheng’s handsome face immediately stiffened. He looked at Huo Xiaoran in disbelief. This gentle young master was like a demon at this moment, smiling terrifyingly.
He actually cursed his grandfather to die?
“You’ve finally revealed your true colors?” Li Zecheng said angrily. “You’ve hated the Li family from the beginning, right?”
Huo Xiaoran gave him a mocking look. Then, he smiled and walked in.
Li Zecheng felt that something was wrong.
Huo Xiaoran was now his defeated opponent. Where did he get such arrogance from?
His girlfriend, Rong Rong, looked at the scene of Huo Xiaoran and Li Zecheng in a daze. Huo Xiaoran’s inviolable aura of a king simply crushed Li Zecheng in an absolute posture.
She glanced at Qiao An again and saw that Qiao An’s gaze had been following Huo Xiaoran like a little fangirl; her eyes were sparkling.
Rong Rong felt bitter.
Huo Xiaoran took a few steps and suddenly stopped.
Qiao An quickly quickened her pace and caught up to him. Huo Xiaoran held her hand and walked in.
In the lobby, the two sons and daughters-in-law of the Li family sat on the sofa with dejected expressions. When they suddenly saw a group of people surging over from the entrance, they were stunned.
“Xiaoran, what are you doing? Why did you bring them here?”
Huo Xiaoran explained, “My father and grandfather came to thank Old Master Li for raising me.”
Li Tingye and Li Tinglei’s faces turned ashen.
If Xiaoran was really indebted to the Li family, they could believe Xiaoran’s words. However, the Li family was so mean to Xiaoran. They did not believe that Xiaoran’s closest family could forgive the Li family so magnanimously.
Li Tingye wanted to chase them away but was powerless against the elders of the Xiao family.
Falcon walked out and said to Li Tingye, “Please take us to see Old Master.”
Li Tingye opened his mouth but did not say anything in the end. He brought Falcon and Old Master Huo into Old Master’s room.
The old man lay on the bed with a haggard expression. His condition was very bad. His condition made him feel unbearable pain, but he was conscious.
When Li Tingye brought people in, the old man groaned in pain. “It hurts, it hurts.”
...
Li Tingye introduced her to him. “Dad, Xiaoran is here.”
Old Master Li’s eyes rolled around as he looked for Xiaoran. “Xiaoran, Xiaoran…” He called out.
Those who did not know him would definitely think that he was loyal to Xiaoran.
Xiaoran stood at the door and looked at him calmly.
Guilt flashed in the old man’s eyes. “I know you resent me.”
Afraid that the old man would say something he shouldn’t, Li Tingye quickly reminded him, “Dad, Xiaoran’s biological father and Grandpa, are here.”
Old Master Li was speechless.
It seemed that he was not confused yet.
His gaze landed on Falcon and Old Master Huo in panic.
The guilt and uneasiness hidden in her eyes overflowed.
“Xiaoran’s father?” he finally shouted shakily.
...
Falcon approached the bed and said, “I’m Falcon.”
Then, he read out his merits. First-class merits, second-class merits. In the end, he choked and said, “Master Li, I should thank you. Thank you… for taking care of Xinping and Xiaoran for me.”
His words came through gritted teeth.
