Chapter 227: Chapter 227: Qiao Xi, I’m Not Your Dog

Chapter 227: Chapter 227: Qiao Xi, I’m Not Your Dog

Years of planning and revealing one’s cards, overturned overnight.

Xu Guangyao was grateful he didn’t have a heart condition, otherwise, he truly might have died of rage.

But Old Chen didn’t hear his prayers.

After much hustle, he entered the private room holding the freshly printed contract.

“Young Master.”

He distributed two copies of the contract, “Mr. Xu, please sign it if everything looks fine to you.”

Xu Guangyao was suspicious.

He flipped through the contract multiple times, even sending photos to his lawyer during the process. Only after finding no traps did he slowly sign his name.

But Huo Xingzhou hesitated to sign, instead gazing at him.

Xu Guangyao, infuriated, a surge of anger rose in his chest, “Do you have any other conditions?”

“The agreement from ten years ago.”

Huo Xingzhou stated indifferently.

“Take it!” Xu Guangyao, devoid of any grace, threw the agreement over.

Old Chen picked it up and placed it in front of Huo Xingzhou. Without a thought, Huo Xingzhou set it in front of Qiao Xi and slowly said, “Tear it.”

His voice was pleasing but bore the authority of a long-held high position.

Listening to it felt like an order.

Qiao Xi looked at the aged agreement that had troubled her for a long time, her chest heaving turmoiled.

She dared not probe why Mr. Huo had handed her the agreement, asking her to tear it up.

She feared seeing the obscured, intense love.

It made her feel even worse, regretting proposing a divorce.

Qiao Xi extended her hand, fiercely tore the agreement, bit by bit into shreds.

The kind that couldn’t be pieced back together.

The paper scraps fluttered about, as if shackles had been removed.

Indeed, it was satisfying!

“Very good.”

Huo Xingzhou leisurely praised, then signed his name on the newly drafted contract.

With two copies, Old Chen handed one to Xu Guangyao.

Huo Xingzhou said, “Tomorrow, the goods from the Xu Family can pass through customs smoothly.” He stood up, grabbed his suit jacket, hung it on his arm, and bent down to Qiao Xi saying, “Have you had enough to eat?”

Qiao Xi nodded.

A dish of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, along with a heap of prawns he had peeled for her, and the dim sum he had given her.

Those made her too full.

“Then let’s go.”

Huo Xingzhou walked past the wooden chair and left; Qiao Xi followed beside him like a shadow.

She wanted to find an opportunity to explain the divorce, but Huo Xingzhou kept a politely distant attitude, lacking any prior intimacy.

Several times Qiao Xi nearly blurted out her words, but they were pushed back by his cold expression.

When they got back to the car.

The sky was still bright outside.

They had lunch with the Xu Family, but the clock still showed twelve.

Huo Xingzhou browsed through documents in the car, not looking up, he asked, “Did you bring the needle?”

Qiao Xi nodded quickly like a pecking chick, “I brought it. Is Mr. Huo’s stomach hurting again?” He had even drunk a bit of red wine during the meal.

“Are you cursing me?”

He put down the documents to look at her, “You’ve been hesitating to speak all this time, just say what you have to say.”

Qiao Xi looked at him and took a deep breath, troubledly said, “Mr. Huo, I misunderstood your relationship with Xu Xingluo before. Plus, with grandma’s passing, I couldn’t discern right from wrong. When your father approached me, I impulsively proposed divorce.”

“So?” he asked slowly.

“Mr. Huo, I apologize to you!” Qiao Xi spoke with difficulty, “Can you give me another chance to reconsider? I don’t want a divorce anymore.”

She said, her voice getting quieter and quieter.

Clearly lacking confidence.

“Hah.”

Huo Xingzhou restrained the smile at the corners of his mouth and said coldly, “You want to leave, then leave; you want to regret, then regret. Do you really think I’m at your beck and call? Qiao Xi, I’m not your dog.”

“I’m sorry, can you give me another chance?” Qiao Xi’s eyes reddened, her voice choked.

Huo Xingzhou slowly said, “There’s a one-month cooling-off period for the divorce. Let’s see how you behave during that time.”

“Okay!”

Qiao Xi seemed to find a glimmer of hope again, her eyes brightening up.

Old Chen, up ahead, couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration!

The young master indeed is a person who commands the winds and clouds in the business world. Once he applies his mind to emotional affairs, the Young Madam is utterly unable to cope!

Masterful!

“Old Chen, let’s go home.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

…

Elsewhere.

Inside Jinling Grand Hotel’s Room 888.

Xu Xingluo uncontrollably sobbed while hugging Liu Huimin; she had been forced to apologize to a country girl.

What is her status, and what is Qiao Xi’s status!

How could she lower her head to her!

“Mom, I… hah…” Xu Xingluo sobbed so much that she had an asthma attack, her face turning pale.

Liu Huimin quickly took out the spray she carried with her and sprayed it a few times. Seeing Xu Xingluo calming down a bit, she felt relieved.

“Xingluo, are you feeling better? My darling, how could Huo Xingzhou be so heartless! If I knew he was such a person, you shouldn’t have saved him back then! Getting asthma from the cold for him, was it worth it?”

Liu Huimin felt very aggrieved.

No matter how bad her daughter was, in her heart, she was just a bit wilful.

No one else should bully her!

Xu Xingluo’s tears fell down like they didn’t cost anything, and she wept and said, “Mom, I can’t live any longer. Where do I fall short compared to Qiao Xi? He doesn’t love me, he loves a country girl.”

“He’s blind!” Liu Huimin gritted her teeth and said, “Xingluo, Huo Xingzhou isn’t worth it.”

“No, I love him. I’m willing to do anything for him, I really don’t know… Without him, what else can I do? I might as well just die.”

Liu Huimin tenderly patted her back, “Xingluo, don’t scare me! Think of something happy, you still have us!”

Xu Xingluo cried even harder.

Liu Huimin’s heart shattered.

She didn’t dare to agitate Xu Xingluo, fearing she might entertain suicidal thoughts.

Her mental trauma was also a leftover from a car accident, Huo Xingzhou is truly an ingrate!

Xu Guangyao watched coldly, his face ashen.

He was frustrated by Xu Xingluo’s crying. Irritated, he said, “Stop crying! Now you regret, but what were you thinking when you ended up in the same bed with Xiang Huai? Don’t tell me it was all his initiative! Xiang Huai is your lapdog; he wouldn’t just take advantage of you.”

He knew his daughter’s nature too well.

She had Xiang Huai completely under her control.

It must have been her initiative.

Xu Xingluo pouted, her voice defensive, “I was drunk at the time, I thought he was Brother Xingzhou… I thought…”

“You were drunk, not brain-dead. Stop making excuses for yourself. If you were truly drunk, nothing would have happened,” Xu Guangyao was not fooled by her excuses.

Even her psychological report.

All fake.

It was he who had deliberately had it forged, hoping to garner more sympathy and favor for her, to give her relationship with Huo Xingzhou a fighting chance.

Unfortunately, he lost that bet.

If only he hadn’t sent her abroad, letting her marry into the Huo Family as a good omen would have been better.

But she refused, claiming Huo Xingzhou wouldn’t live long.

His daughter is selfish and manipulative, adept at presenting herself as a harmless dodder flower.

Birds of a feather.

Xu Guangyao took a deep breath and said, “I will agree to the Xiang Family’s proposal for a marriage alliance.”
