Qiao An’s eyes were covered with a layer of sadness and confusion. She didn’t actually know how to deal with her messy relationship with Li Xiaoran.

Deep in her heart, she must be looking forward to getting back together with him. Not only because she loved him, but also because she was carrying their child.

However, Qiao An was extremely rational. She knew that if she were to be with Li Xiaoran, she would not be able to hide her identity. The people who did not know the truth would slander Li Xiaoran for seducing his niece-in-law.

As for Xiaoran, because he had seen her mother commit suicide as a child, he actually had serious depression. Qiao An was worried that Li Xiaoran’s old illness would relapse and was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the pressure…

“Coco, it’s because he’s good to me that I can’t be with him,” Qiao An said helplessly.

Loco felt extremely regretful. “Forget it, forget it. An’an, don’t think about anything for the time being. We still have a tough battle to fight. You “aborted” the Li family’s child. Since Li Zecheng doesn’t have a child to tie him down, he will take the initiative to divorce you this time.”

Qiao An’s eyes were cold as he said, “I’ll wait for him.”

Qiao An went home after two days in the hospital.

As expected, without the “child”, the Li family had zero tolerance for her. They announced the news of her divorce with Li Zecheng in the media immediately.

It could be considered as completely severing Qiao An and Li Zecheng’s relationship.

The Li family was so swift and decisive because they wanted to cut the Gordian knot. After all, the longer the divorce case dragged on, the worse it would be for the Li family’s reputation and Li Zecheng’s future.

The onlookers who did not know the truth cheered below. “Congratulations on their freedom. They will be free to marry in the future.”

Qiao An chimed in, “Sorry, we’re not divorced yet.”

Without much explanation, this simple message was a slap in the face of for the Li family. She had embarrassed them.

The onlookers speculated, “The Li family issued an official divorce order without the consent of the parties involved and can’t wait to get rid of the commoner wife. What unspeakable secret is there?”

“The Li family is bullying the weak. They’re officially divorcing her because Mrs. Li doesn’t have a backer.”

The direction of public opinion was very unfriendly to the Li family.

This made Old Master Li furious. Because Li Zecheng did not handle things well, he was criticized by several uncles.

“Zecheng, why didn’t you discuss the divorce with Qiao An? Now that she’s fighting back, it makes our Li family seem like we’re bullying the weak.”

Li Zecheng had nowhere to vent his anger. After being reprimanded by his uncle, he called Qiao An’s lawyer angrily.

Loco didn’t want to answer his call at first, but she had already expected that he was here to criticize her. However, after all, Loco was representing them in the divorce case. She had to answer the call.

Loco reluctantly picked up the call. Li Zecheng roared angrily, “Loco, get Qiao An to answer the phone.”

Loco said arrogantly, “Li Zecheng, Qiao An was forced into a corner by you. Why don’t you let her off?”

Li Zecheng sneered bitterly. “Isn’t she the one who forced me into a corner?”

Loco retorted, “Li Zecheng, you were the one who betrayed this relationship first, and you were the one who schemed against Qiao An first. When you bullied her, you should have thought that a heartless person like you would receive bad karma. These abuses you suffered today are your retribution.”

Li Zecheng only knew that both Qiao An and Li Xiaoran had a vicious mouth. He did not expect that Loco was the same.

“Loco, I know you’re her lawyer. Aren’t you trying your best to help her obtain the Li family’s assets? We’ll see. I’ll make you lose everything.”

Li Zecheng had threatened many people. With his status as the crown prince of the Li family, many people had compromised under his threat.

However, Loco did not compromise. Instead, she mocked Li Zecheng. “Li Zecheng, the only person who will lose everything is you. If you don’t believe me, just wait and see.”

“I advise you to be kind. Otherwise, with the data I have, it will ruin your reputation and make you unable to rise again.”

Li Zecheng sneered. “Hmph, the evidence Qiao An gathered was obtained by eavesdropping. If she dares to use these methods in court, I’ll send her to jail.”

Luo Ke smiled. “Qiao An said that as long as she can ruin your reputation, she’s not afraid of going to jail. She has already made up her mind to destroy you. However, Li Zecheng, you have to think carefully. Your life is precious. The Li family is a big corporation in the capital. Do you think it’s worth it to lose a corporation for Qiao An?”

Li Zecheng smiled evilly. “I can tell that you’re still afraid that I’ll send her to jail.”

Loco said, “She’s my best friend. I just think it’s not worth it for her to ruin her future just to get back at you. Of course, if you’re stubborn, I’ll fight this lawsuit for her to the end.”

“You want me to lose my reputation? Loco, don’t you know? There is a format called a secret trial.”

Loco’s lips twitched.

Li Zecheng laughed smugly.

After hanging up, Loco was so angry that she smashed her phone against the wall.

“What’s this? It’s simply strange.”

Qiao An listened to their conversation.

She was not as exasperated as Loco. Instead, she sat quietly at the side and tapped her leg rhythmically.

“Qiao An, Li Zecheng will definitely think of a way to apply for a secret trial. At that time, the details of your divorce will become a dusty file. After this, he can continue to deceive others.”

Qiao An’s eyes flickered with a cold light. “He wants a secret hearing because he knows that what he did can’t be exposed. The more he wants to cover it, the more I won’t let him do as he wants.”

With that, Qiao An called her director and recommended herself. “Director, can I recommend someone for the next interview?”

“Oh? Who?”

“The Young Madam of the Li family, who is currently in the limelight online.”

The director was in a difficult position. “Qiao An, but this is a men’s magazine.”

Qiao An said, “The aim of interviewing the young mistress of the Li family on the surface is to show the true colors of the Capital’s Fourth Young Master, Li Zecheng.”

The director thought for a moment and said, “Qiao An, that’s a very good idea, but you have to deal with the details. Don’t let the other party catch you in the act.”

“I know.”

With the director’s permission, Qiao An wrote an article in the first person narrative.

She illustrated all the details vividly, from the moment she came to capital full of longing, from the ecstasy of her entering the siege of marriage, from her deep love for her husband, from the desire to be a couple… to the despair of walking step by step into the quagmire, to the driving force behind the collapse of the marriage, such as the betrayal, deception, and cold violence in the marriage.
