I married my best friend's dad in a whirlwind romance, only to find out he'd secretly love

Qiao An'an looked at him, "Can you get Yao Yao to agree to let me move out?"

Lu Yanzhi couldn't be happier with this condition. In this villa, Lu Zhiyao was just a third wheel. With her around, how could he possibly cultivate a relationship with his sweetheart?

But once they move out, they have no choice but to live together.

"Mm." Lu Yanzhi nodded.

Qiao An'an was a little excited, "If Yao Yao finds out and gets angry, you have to say that you made me move, not that I asked you to."

Hearing the coquettish tone in her voice, as if she were pleading with him, Lu Yanzhi's heart softened, and he replied, "Mmm."

"When are we moving?" Qiao An'an really didn't want to live here anymore.

"In the next couple of days."

He needs to make arrangements so that they can move out together.

Qiao An'an was overjoyed to hear that she could move out so soon, completely unaware that the man had already woven a large net for her.

"Well... Uncle Lu, I'll wait for your news. I... I'll go back to my room to rest now." Qiao An'an said, heading upstairs.

"Wait a moment."

Qiao An'an stopped and turned to look at the man.

Lu Yanzhi frowned, looking at her posture as if she were a schoolchild caught doing something wrong. "Are you afraid of me!"

Qiao An'an quickly shook her head, "No."

She was afraid, but she didn't want to admit it.

Looking at her like this, Lu Yanzhi felt helpless.

He's a man in a high position of power; he's seen all kinds of people, yet this little girl is so afraid of him.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hit or eat people." Lu Yanzhi's tone carried a sense of grievance and sorrow that he himself was unaware of.

Upon hearing this, Qiao An'an gave an awkward smile.

(Inner monologue: With your aura, do you even need to make a move?)

"Uncle Lu, I'm just not used to it."

Lu Yanzhi didn't say anything, wondering if she thought he was too old, after all, there was a ten-year age gap between them!

Oh well, there will be plenty of time for her to get to know me later.

"Take this medicine." Lu Yanzhi stood up, took out a tube of ointment from his pocket, and handed it to Qiao An'an.

"Medicine?" Qiao An'an asked, puzzled.

Lu Yanzhi coughed lightly. "Go back to your room to use it. I asked, and this medicine works very well. Last night was my first time using it, and I was inexperienced, so I used too much force and hurt you. I'll be more careful next time."

Qiao An'an's face instantly turned red.

How can someone say such shameful things in such a serious manner!

Qiao An'an was torn between throwing the medicine away and keeping it.

Seeing that Qiao An'an remained silent, Lu Yanzhi instantly became a little nervous.

"Does it hurt a lot? Shall I put some medicine on it for you?"

But the more he talked, the redder Qiao An'an's face became.

"Don't speak," Qiao An'an quickly interrupted Lu Yanzhi.

Where is the next time?

Sure enough, young people dare to say the most outrageous things.

Qiao An'an blushed so much that even her neck turned red.

"Thank you for the medicine!"

After saying that, Qiao An'an turned around and ran upstairs without looking back.

Lu Yanzhi frowned as he watched Qiao An'an's retreating figure.

Is the little one angry?

He's never had a girlfriend and doesn't know what he did wrong!

So, Lu Yanzhi picked up his phone and dialed a number.

As soon as the call connected, Lu Yanzhi immediately asked.

How do you comfort a girl when she's angry?

Back in her room, Qiao An'an buried herself in her pillow and it took her a long time to calm down.

Thankfully, no one else was around today, otherwise I would have been too embarrassed to show my face.

Is this still the adoptive father that Lu Zhiyao told her about?

Lu Zhiyao clearly said that her adoptive father was old-fashioned and strict, but just now...

Qiao An'an picked up the medicine, opened it, glanced at it, and muttered, "For external use only."

Immediately afterwards, she got up to wash herself and relaxed, only then did she feel the stinging pain between her legs.

I was so tense just now that I didn't feel any discomfort, but now it really hurts!

She gritted her teeth, her face flushed, and applied the medicine to herself.

But when the ointment touched her skin, the cool and comfortable feeling made her recall the scene from last night.

That's so embarrassing.

After applying the medicine, she quickly threw it aside.

Her phone suddenly rang. She glanced at it, took a deep breath, and answered the call.

"Hello!"

"An'an, it's your Aunt Zhu. Are you busy right now?"

A strong, middle-aged woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.

The caller was none other than Jiang Chen's mother, Zhu Yanhui.

"I'm not busy today." Qiao An'an didn't want to lie, after all, the fault lay with Jiang Chen, and she couldn't blame others.

"Ah Chen is injured, did you know?" The voice on the other end of the phone sounded tentative.

Hearing this tone, Qiao An'an thought of what Lu Zhiyao had said about getting revenge for her.

But what did Zhu Yanhui mean by making this phone call?

Qiao An'an felt a chill in her heart, and her tone became distant.

"I don't know how I got hurt?"

Qiao An'an wasn't wrong; she simply didn't know.

She had barely finished speaking when she heard the other person sigh.

"I bet you didn't know either. If you did, how could you not come to the hospital to take care of Achen?" Zhu Yanhui continued without giving Qiao An'an a chance to speak.

"An'an, Auntie called to ask you to take care of Achen for me. Achen is badly injured and needs to be hospitalized. I can't get back from here in time."

Upon hearing this, Qiao An'an fell silent.

She broke up with Jiang Chen when she left yesterday.

But listening to Zhu Yanhui's words, Qiao An'an knew that Jiang Chen must have said something.

Qiao An'an took a deep breath. "Auntie, Jiang Chen and I have broken up."

The person on the other end of the phone immediately fell silent.

After a long while, Qiao An'an finally heard the other person sigh, their tone even softer than before.

"An'an, although Auntie doesn't know what happened, it must be that Achen was wrong. When Auntie gets back, she will definitely make Achen change. Please give him another chance."

Qiao An'an was silent for a while, then said, "Auntie, let's talk things out face to face when you come."

She's already decided to break up, so she won't get back together.

Jiang Chen betrayed him first; he himself didn't cherish it.

She and Jiang Chen dated for two years. On their first anniversary, both sets of parents met and agreed to get married right after graduation.

Now that they've broken up, Qiao An'an feels she should make things clear to both sets of parents. If they're going to break up, they should break up cleanly.

Zhu Yanhui on the other end of the phone seemed not to have heard what she said, and said anxiously, "An'an, Auntie knows you are a good child, but I can't go over there right now either. Please take care of Achen."

Before Qiao An'an could say anything, the call was disconnected.

next second.

The hospital sent the information via text message.

Qiao An'an stared at the message for a while before deciding to call her parents to explain things to them first.

She was prepared to be scolded, after all, her parents had treated Jiang Chen very well at the time, so they must have been satisfied.

As soon as the call connected, she mustered her courage and said, "Mom, you and Dad might have to come over and explain to Jiang Chen's family that we've broken up."

But what followed was not blame and questioning, but concern from her parents.

They said they would be there right away, so she shouldn't worry too much.

Qiao An'an's eyes welled up with tears at her parents' care and understanding.

After hanging up the phone, Qiao An'an washed her face, tidied herself up, picked up her bag, and went out.

As I passed by the living room, I saw that Lu Yanzhi was still there, seemingly dealing with company matters.

Not wanting to disturb him, Qiao An'an tiptoed toward the villa gate.
