Chapter 559 - 559 Loveless Marriage
559 Loveless Marriage
After Huo Xiaoran finished making breakfast, the children sat on the dining chairs. However, Qiao An still did not go downstairs.
Huo Xiaoran said, “You guys eat first. I’ll bring it up for Mommy.”
When Huo Xiaoran went upstairs, he heard his daughters discussing him. “Mommy sleeps in. Daddy doesn’t make a fuss and even wants to send Mommy breakfast to her room to eat. Tomorrow, we can also sleep in like Mommy.”
Huo Xiaoran retorted to his daughters, “You can’t sleep in. Little children have to sleep early and wake up early to recover.”
“That’s not fair, Daddy had double standards,” Angel shouted.
Huo Xiaoran said, “Your mommy is my wife. She used her life to carry on my family line, so I naturally have to dote on her. If you want to be lazy, study hard. In the future, when you become social elites, you can find a good husband to dote on you.”
Ki Ki smiled. “Angel and Joey, don’t worry. Even if you’re bad students, you’ll find good husbands in the future. As long as you burn more incense to Guan Yin Bodhisattva at the temple door. She’ll protect you.”
Although Joey and Angel were not old, they knew that relying on spiritual power was absurd and unbelievable.
“Ki Ki, you’re lying to us again.”
The children giggled.
Huo Xiaoran came to the bedroom. Perhaps the sound of the door opening woke Qiao An up. She opened her eyes sleepily and got up lazily.
“Brother Xiaoran, why did Joey ask you to go just now?”
Huo Xiaoran walked over and gently put on her coat for her. Only then did he say, “The children said that Aunt Sisi was here.”
“Why is Sisi looking for me?” Qiao An asked in surprise.
Huo Xiaoran said, “When I went downstairs, Sisi had already left. However, the children said that her eyes were red. She must have cried.”
Qiao An felt uneasy. “Then I have to see her quickly. This girl must be troubled.”
“Then you have to go after breakfast.”
Xiao Ran handed the breakfast food box to Qiao An, who smiled in embarrassment. “Brother Xiaoran, you’ll spoil me by doing this. Who brings breakfast to bed?”
Xiao Ran rubbed her head and smiled. “I’m happy to.”
Then, he came up with a powerful reason to support his behavior. “I dote on my wife so that my daughters will have a very high benchmark for marriage. In the future, it won’t be easy for any brat to coax my daughters away.”
Qiao An said, “That makes sense.”
Qiao An quickly finished her breakfast, washed up, and hurried to Sisi’s villa.
Huo Zhou and Huo Zhou’s mother were not at home. Sisi sat alone in the rocking chair in the courtyard, feeling sad. She looked especially haggard.
Qiao An walked over and sat in front of Sisi, looking at her quietly.
Sisi gave Qiao An a small bomb. “Sister An’an, I want to divorce Zhou Zhou.”
Qiao An was dumbfounded. “Sisi, why would you have such a thought?”
Sisi turned to look at Qiao An with bloodshot eyes. “Sister An’an, it’s impossible for you to fall in love with a man other than Brother Xiaoran in this life, right?”
Qiao An didn’t know why she had such a strange question, but she nodded matter-of-factly.
Sisi said, “So, Zhou Zhou might not fall in love with anyone other than Sister Qianqian in this life. He won’t love me.”
At this point, Sisi sobbed sadly. “Last night, I tried my best to carry out the plan, but he still couldn’t break through the barrier and be with me. In the past four years, other than the time Mom drugged him, I actually haven’t slept with him at all. Isn’t this a loveless marriage?”
“I’m really afraid that I won’t be able to warm him up for the rest of my life and waste our time.”
Qiao An stroked Sisi’s hand and comforted her. “Sisi, forgive me for being unable to take care of you for the past few years and being dispirited all day. I actually didn’t know that you were living in all kinds of suffering. If you have any troubles in the future, chat more with me. Don’t hold it in.”
“The most difficult situation in your marriage with Zhou Zhou was that Zhou Zhou loved a dead person. She died at her best time. When Zhou Zhou thought of her, he thought of all her merits. But in fact, all the good things will fade under the wash of time.”
Her eyes were red as she said sadly, “I underestimated the power of love. Actually, thinking about it, everything can be traced. Huo Xiaoran is such a devoted person, so Huo Zhou should be such a person. This is the characteristic of the Huo family.”
Qiao An’s heart ached when she saw that Sisi had fallen into grief. “Sisi, why don’t I take you out shopping? You can adjust your mood? When you calm down, you can think about where to go.”
Qiao An didn’t want Zhou Zhou and Sisi to be separated, but she had to respect the persons involved and didn’t dare to make a rash decision for her.
She could only accompany her quietly with a kind heart.
Qiao An did not return home for a long time. Because Xiaoran was worried about Qiao An, he went out to look for her. After knowing about Sisi, Huo Xiaoran made a swift decision.
He took out his phone and called Huo Zhou. “Zhou Zhou, your Sisi is in a bad mood. Come back quickly.”
Then he hung up.
On the other end, Huo Zhou looked at the phone and felt uneasy and helpless.
He couldn’t consummate with Sisi last night. When he woke up this morning, he clearly felt that Sisi was in a bad mood. However, he thought that Sisi could digest his bad emotions, so he didn’t mind.
Unexpectedly, Sisi would break down.
It had been four years. Sisi had been silently enduring his cold treatment. Now, she was finally starting to break down.
Huo Zhou did not know where he should go.
Should he still coldly adhere to his principles? Or should he work hard to change for her?
Huo Zhou silently turned off his computer and returned home.
Qiao An and Sisi were sitting in the European-style pavilion in the courtyard. When Xiao Ran saw Huo Zhou, she called him to the side and scolded softly, “What happened?”
Huo Zhou shrugged. “I can’t consummate the marriage with her.”
Huo Xiaoran widened his eyes and clenched his fists in anger. “Zhou Zhou, do you know? Your actions are too contemptible. If you weren’t my brother, my fists would have landed on you. How can you do this? Why didn’t you treat her well after marrying her?”
Huo Zhou also looked pained. “Xiaoran, I’ve tried my best, but I can’t touch her.”
“In that case, why did you get married back then?”
Huo Zhou said, “Don’t scold me, Xiaoran. I already regret it very much. In the past few years, I’ve wanted a divorce, but she was unwilling. I couldn’t bear to force her, so I delayed it until now.”
When Huo Xiaoran saw Huo Zhou’s painful appearance, he could only forgive him.
“What about now? What are you going to do? I heard from An’an that Sisi wants to divorce you.”
