Chapter 94: After Marriage, Qiao An Is Mighty
Li Zecheng covered his head with his hand and looked at Qiao An, who had lost her mind. He said fiercely, “Qiao An, you’re crazy.”
Qiao An said fiercely, “Yes, I’ve been crazy since you pushed me to the kidnappers in the ruins. Li Zecheng, I survived because I wanted to drag you to hell with me.”
Li Zecheng saw Qiao An’s ferocious and twisted expression. At that moment, he firmly believed that Qiao An would really kill him.
He was more or less terrified as he crawled out with his clothes.
Li Zecheng called Third Madam and told her that he had been injured by Qiao An. Third Madam shouted crazily on the phone, “Qiao An hit you. Don’t you know how to hit her back? Can a man like you take advantage of her?”
Li Zecheng said angrily, “Now is not the time to talk about this. Get me a doctor immediately.”
“Get a doctor? Son, is your injury serious?” Third Madam was worried to death.
Li Zecheng said, “If you don’t get a doctor, your son will die.”
Third Madam was so frightened that she almost fainted.
She was a gossipy person to begin with, so it didn’t take long for her to report Li Zecheng’s injury to Old Master.
When the old master heard that Li Zecheng and Qiao An had fought to the point of bleeding, he immediately instructed the butler, “Quick, call Xiaoran and ask him to quickly go to Star Palace to save the situation.”
The old man tidied up briefly and asked the chauffeur to send him to Star Palace.
Soon, the cold and lonely Star Palace Residence was brightly lit, and intense arguments could be heard from the living room.
“Qiao An, what right do you have to hit my son? I’ve never seen a shrew like you hit your husband like this.” Third Madam’s sharp voice lingered in the air.
Qiao An said, “Why don’t you ask your son what he did first?”
Li Zecheng covered his wound and glared at Qiao An angrily, but he was too guilty to tell the truth.
Third Madam encouraged Li Zecheng. “Son, don’t be afraid. Tell Mom, what mistake did you make? Mom has your back. Even if you made a mistake, she shouldn’t have hit you.”
The old man looked at Li Zecheng and Qiao An angrily and berated, “Li Zecheng, tell me, why did you fight today?”
Li Zecheng said in a low voice, “I kissed her, and she hit me with an ashtray.”
Qiao An retorted, “Li Zecheng, you were trying to rape me. I hit you in self-defense.”
Third Madam was so angry that she shouted, “Qiao An, I thought it was something big. It’s your honor that my son kissed you. Not only are you not grateful to him, you even hit him. You…”
Qiao An said coldly, “Your son is fooling around with other women. Who knows if he has those strange and messy illnesses? I despise him for being dirty, but I won’t let him touch me. I have to protect the child in my stomach.”
Qiao An used the child as defense. This tugged at the old man’s heartstrings. The old man glared at Li Zecheng and said angrily, “Beast, you know that your wife is pregnant, but you still tried to sleep with her against her wishes.”
Third Madam helped Li Zecheng. “Dad, they’re husband and wife. Isn’t it normal for husband and wife to get intimate with each other? Zecheng is a normal man. He can’t possibly hold it in so hard because Qiao An is pregnant, right?”
Qiao An scoffed. “Your son has options outside. He won’t suffocate.”
After Qiao An finished speaking, she opened the video of Li Zecheng and Lan Xi kissing.
The old man’s face darkened.
“Li Zecheng, you bastard.” He raised his walking stick and was about to hit Li Zecheng.
Third Madam shielded her son behind her and said, “Dad, Zecheng is already injured. What if you hit him again and cause problems?”
The old man saw the blood on Li Zecheng’s face and sat down gloomily.
He roared in frustration, “Where’s Li Xiaoran? Why isn’t that kid here yet?”
Li Xiaoran had arrived at some point. He leaned lazily against the door and quietly enjoyed the farce.
When the old man mentioned his name, Li Xiaoran walked in elegantly and said reluctantly, “I’m not your private doctor. Why should I be at your beck and call?”
Old Master Li rolled his eyes at him. “Your nephew is injured. Isn’t it your duty as his uncle to help him treat his injuries? Why are you talking so much nonsense?”
“Duty?” Li Xiaoran smiled slightly.
“Dad, you really don’t know me.” Li Xiaoran decided to waste some time promoting himself to the old man. “Your son is an authoritative expert in the neurosurgery department. Other than treating patients in the hospital, I occasionally visit patients. However, I serve the high officials and nobles, so the fees are very high.”
Third Madam did not want to owe Li Xiaoran a favor. She immediately said arrogantly, “Don’t you just want the consultation fee? Tell me, how much?”
Li Xiaoran’s warm eyes suddenly froze.
“Third Sister-in-law, with your background, you’re not worthy of appearing on my consultation list.”
The Third Madam had always looked down on Li Xiaoran. She did not expect to be despised by Li Xiaoran today and was especially unhappy.
Fortunately, Old Master Li tried to smooth things over. “Alright, alright. Don’t take advantage of the situation and raise the price. With Li Zecheng’s injuries, how much can he spend?”
Third Madam echoed, “That’s right.”
Li Xiaoran sneered and walked past the bleeding Li Zecheng to Qiao An.
Third Madam was dumbfounded. “Fourth Brother, we asked you to come here to treat your nephew? Why are you trying to treat Qiao An? She’s not injured?”
Li Xiaoran reached out and lifted the fringe on Qiao An’s forehead, revealing the bloody swell.
Third Madam jumped in shock.
Li Xiaoran looked at Third Madam disdainfully. “Third Sister-in-law, Li Zecheng is your son and Qiao An is your daughter-in-law. They both address you as Mom. You only see your son’s superficial wounds and don’t see your daughter-in-law’s injuries. Third Sister-in-law is so biased. Your daughter-in-law’s really unlucky.”
Third Madam was furious.
“You talk too much.”
Li Xiaoran said, “I’m just speaking up for justice.”
Third Madam was speechless.
Li Xiaoran reached out and poked the blood bump on Qiao An’s forehead. Qiao An gritted her teeth in pain and glared at him.
She pushed his hand away angrily and said, “I don’t need you to treat me.”
She hated the Li family’s descendants.
Li Xiaoran said, “Are you trying to be brave again?”
Then, without waiting for Qiao An’s permission, he sat in front of her and carefully applied the medicine.
In the end, he looked at Qiao An’s cold face and stretched out two fingers to tease her. “How many is this?”
Qiao An turned away, wanting to ignore him.
“Qiao An, answer me. The doctor has to determine if the patient has intracranial injuries,” Li Xiaoran said seriously.
Qiao An could only answer him. “Two.”
