However, Li Zecheng was also a very vigilant person. The important information was not placed in such an easy place. After searching for a long time, Qiao An was about to leave when, unfortunately, Li Zecheng returned.

Qiao An heard the engines outside and had to duck into her ladies’ cloakroom.

Not long after, Li Zecheng entered the house.

She heard Li Zecheng making a call. Perhaps thinking that there was no one in the house, Li Zecheng chose to use the speaker mode.

Qiao An heard him flirting with Wei Xin.

Wei Xin’s delicate voice could be heard. “Brother Zecheng, I miss you. Why don’t I come to your place tonight?”

Li Zecheng’s face darkened. “Not recently. Qiao An has been causing a lot of trouble recently. If she catches me cheating, I won’t be able to keep my marriage.”

“Brother Zecheng, I don’t understand. Since you don’t like her, why don’t you divorce her?”

Li Zecheng said, “What do you know? The fortune-teller said that Qiao An’s life is destined to benefit her husband. My grandfather is superstitious. He likes this granddaughter-in-law. In the past two years, I’ve benefited a lot from her. If I divorce her, I won’t be able to get into Grandpa’s good books.”

“But Qiao An has made up her mind. I’m afraid you won’t be able to keep this marriage.”

“Hmph, with that love-struck brain of hers, she loved me so much at that time that she was defenseless against me. I gave her two hundred million dollars in debt. She can forget about divorcing me for the rest of her life.”

Wei Xin pursed her lips and sighed.

Li Zecheng comforted her. “Don’t be sad. The treatment I’m giving you is something only Mrs. Li can receive. Compared to you, Qiao An is worse than a maid.”

Qian An gritted her teeth in anger.

It turned out that she was just a decoration in Li Zecheng’s eyes. No wonder he gave Wei Xin the wedding ring and only gave her the free gift.

And she had happily married him.

How could Qiao An endure such humiliation?

“Li Zecheng, I’ll definitely let you have a taste of what it’s like to go from heaven to the bottom of the valley.”

Li Zecheng made a long call before going to the bathroom to take a shower.

Qiao An sneaked out of the cloakroom and caught a glimpse of Li Zecheng’s phone on the bedside table. Before the screen could lock, Qiao An quickly switched it on.

There was a call record between Li Zecheng and Wei Xin.

There was also the chat history that Li Zecheng and Wei Xin had yet to delete. Qiao An took a photo of it with her phone.

Sensing that Li Zecheng was about to come out, Qiao An tiptoed out.

Sneaking back to the hospital.

She found the hidden wheelchair and changed into the hospital gown before sliding back into the ward.

“Qiao An. You’re finally back. Where did you go just now? ” When Lu Mo saw her, she started complaining.

Qiao An kept her head down and didn’t say anything.

After Lu Mo finished venting, she called Li Xiaoran. “Senior, Qiao An is back.”

Li Xiaoran quickly entered the ward. When he saw Qiao An, Li Xiaoran said to Lu Mo, “Go out. I’ll talk to her.”

Qiao An looked at him innocently and squeezed out two lovely dimples.

“It’s useless to act cute. Tell me honestly, where did you go in the afternoon?” Li Xiaoran’s expression was very serious.

Jo Ann played dumb. “I got lost in the hospital. Took me a while to find my way back.”

Qiao An looked at Qiao An as if he was looking at a national treasure. “Qiao An, don’t tell me you can’t read? You can’t read the hospital’s traffic system icons?”

Qiao An brushed it off. “Oh, I forgot.”

Li Xiaoran’s lips curled up. Was that wretched girl playing with him?

“Don’t you have a mouth, then? Don’t you know how to ask your uncles and aunts if you’re lost?”

Qiao An chuckled awkwardly. “I’m embarrassed to ask.”

“Why didn’t I realize that you were so thin-skinned in the past?” Li Xiaoran said.

No matter how Li Xiaoran interrogated her, Qiao An would not give anything away.

But Li Xiaoran was not to be trifled with. “Since you’re so good at running, I think I’ll break your legs.”

With that, he extended his demonic claws.

Qiao An was so frightened that her face turned pale. She exclaimed, “Dr. Li, I sneaked out for dinner. Don’t worry, I won’t dare to sneak out again.”

Li Xiaoran was skeptical, but because Qiao An insisted that she had secretly gone out to eat, Li Xiaoran could only give up.

According to the Li family’s tradition, the first weekend in April was a day for the Li family to gather and bond.

In the past, at this time, Li Zecheng must have booked a couple outfit with Qiao An and coaxed her to return to the Li family to show off their love.

But this year, there was no movement from Li Zecheng’s side.

It seemed that he had a guilty conscience. Knowing that Qiao An was not easy to control now, he simply did not ask Qiao An to go home with him.

But Qiao An did the opposite.

She wanted to officially announce her divorce from Li Zecheng in front of the elders of the family.

Although Li Zecheng had put her in debt, she had a way to escape unscathed.

Some time ago, she had asked Loco to hire a private detective to monitor Li Zecheng and secretly took photos of him and Wei Xin being a couple. In addition, she had returned to the public house and secretly recorded evidence of Li Zecheng transferring his assets.

Everything was ready except for one thing.

As long as she showed this evidence to Old Master Li, he would definitely let her leave freely for the sake of the Li Corporation’s future.

Although Qiao An felt indignant about leaving Li Zecheng like this, she didn’t want to stay by his side for even a moment.

When Qiao An appeared at the entrance of the Li family’s villa and saw the dozen or so luxury cars parked in the parking lot, a sneer appeared on Qiao An’s face.

The descendants of the Li family had all returned. It seemed that there would be a show to watch.

While Qiao An was in a daze, Li Zecheng got out of the Bentley. When he saw Qiao An, uneasiness flashed across his eyes.

“What are you doing back here, Qiao An?” he demanded.

“Hubby, have you forgotten that we’re not divorced yet? I’m still the granddaughter-in-law of the Li family.”

Hearing her address herself as the granddaughter-in-law of the Li family, Li Zecheng’s eyes flashed with joy.

The old man was the person in charge of the family’s finances, and he especially liked Qiao An. As long as Qiao An put in a good word for him, the old man would definitely give him some benefits.

“An’an, why didn’t you tell me you were coming back? I could have picked you up from the hospital.” Li Zecheng began to please Qiao An.

Qiao An looked at Li Zecheng with a distant and cold gaze.

Then before he could walk up, Qiao An wheeled herself inside.

Li Zecheng stepped forward quickly and took Qiao An’s hand.

Sensing that Qiao An was still throwing a tantrum, he became a little flustered, afraid that Qiao An would embarrass him by throwing a tantrum today.

It was rare for him to coax her. “Honey, I’m so happy you came back.”
