587 Sowing Discord

Rong Rong took note and asked Li Zecheng in a probing tone, “Qiao An came to look for me just now.”

An invisible panic flashed across Li Zecheng’s eyes, but he pretended to be calm. “Why is she looking for you?”

Rong Rong looked at Li Zecheng without blinking. “She told me a lot of strange things, especially about your marriage with her.”

Li Zecheng smiled and said, “I was young and frivolous at that time and didn’t know how to cherish her. Therefore, I caused her a lot of harm. She’d always been brooding over it. Rong Rong, if Qiao An comes to look for you again, don’t mind her. I’ve let her down.”

He was so open that Rong Rong felt that Qiao An was making a mountain out of a molehill. Rong Rong said, “Who hasn’t made mistakes when they were young? Zecheng, I won’t blame you.”

Li Zecheng relaxed. In order to completely dispel Rong Rong’s worries, he decided to have a heart-to-heart talk with her.

“She wasn’t not making a mountain out of a molehill. When I was young, I made a very serious mistake. I abandoned my wife, ignored my children, and had no sense of responsibility. However, I also suffered retribution and was once tempered in tears of blood. Rong Rong, when you see me today, you’ll feel that I am mature, steady, and gentlemanly. It’s just that my current growth is all experience.”

Rong Rong took his hand and said, “It’s because you’ve become better. Now that your career is successful, Qiao An won’t give up on you. She’s here to sow discord between us.”

Li Zecheng’s eyes darkened. “We’re already in the past. Rong Rong, don’t worry. There won’t be anything between us.”

Li Zecheng’s ambiguous reply made Rong Rong think that Qiao An still had feelings for him, and she became even more convinced that Qiao An was here to sow discord between them.

Rong Rong was very happy. “I believe you.”

However, Rong Rong’s understanding was quickly overturned.

Li Zecheng drove to the wedding dress company.

In order to save time, the assistant brought Rong Rong and Li Zecheng to try on the gown.

Li Zecheng was a little distracted, while Rong’rong cooperated fully. She came to the wedding dress display area and chose one wedding dress after another.

The staff also did her best to introduce her. “This wedding dress has a very good effect on the upper body. Even the female CEO of the Angel Group, Qiao An, rented this wedding dress back then.”

Rong’rong was very surprised. “Rent?”

A hint of mockery appeared in her eyes. The man Qiao An had found must be incompetent, which was why Qiao An couldn’t bear to buy this highly-priced wedding dress.

Unexpectedly, the assistant recalled the plot of the day and rambled, “Yes, I still remember the scene that day. Like a child, CEO Huo begged CEO Qiao to buy these expensive wedding dresses. He said that his goal of earning money was for Qiao An. If Qiao An didn’t spend money, he wouldn’t have the motivation to earn money.”

“But Miss Qiao An was very thrifty. She said that she would only wear a wedding dress once before it becomes even more precious. And such a good wedding dress should be seen by more people. It was too wasteful for her to buy it home and keep it.”

“President Huo respects Miss Qiao An very much. He couldn’t dissuade her, so he had to give up. Aiya, they’re the most loving couple I’ve ever seen. When the two of them look at each other, their eyes keep shining. Especially President Huo. The way he looks at Miss Qiao An is extremely gentle.”

Rong Rong’s heart sank as she listened to the interesting things about Huo Xiaoran and Qiao An’s lives.

Was the relationship between Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran really that deep?

No, it wasn’t true. If she and her husband were really that loving, she wouldn’t have sowed discord between her and Li Zecheng.

Rong Rong was still unwilling to believe that Qiao An was here to save her.

At this moment, the assistant said, “Oh, right, we still have a wedding photo of Miss Qiao An and CEO Huo hanging in our shop. Do you want to take a look? Miss Qiao An is really beautiful in this outfit.”

Rong’rong thought for a moment and nodded.

She really couldn’t wait to see Qiao An. She subconsciously felt that it was because Huo Xiaoran was not as outstanding as Li Zecheng that Qiao An was entangled with Li Zecheng.

The staff brought Rong Rong to the wedding photo wall. Rong’rong’s gaze was naturally attracted to the photo in the center.

It was the wedding photo of Qiao An and Huo Xiaoran. Qiao An placed her head on Huo Xiaoran’s shoulder and smiled. She looked like a shy girl.

As for Huo Xiaoran… Rong Rong was stunned by his handsome appearance. She used to think that Li Zecheng was the most handsome man, but after seeing Huo Xiaoran, she realized that he was miles ahead of Li Zecheng.

His facial features were very handsome, and his eyes were as gentle as jade. His gaze naturally landed on Qiao An, and his entire body leaned toward her. They were simply beauties.

The staff was still nagging. “They’re much more good-looking in person than they look in photos. I envy them. Not only are they good-looking, but they’re so loving. Any gesture they made and became the most beautiful painting in the photographs. They were unlike other couples who need the photographer to pose.”

Rong Rong’s heart sank.

After seeing Huo Xiaoran’s stunning appearance, she really couldn’t find a reason to convince herself that Qiao An would give up on Huo Xiaoran and choose Li Zecheng.

So Qiao An had really come to her and told her things because she didn’t want her to lose her footing.

Rong Rong walked out with a dark expression and said to Li Zecheng, “I’m not taking the wedding photos anymore. I’m not feeling well today.”

This sudden change puzzled Li Zecheng.

He glared fiercely at the staff, thinking that he had offended Rong’rong because the staff had not served her well.

“Rong Rong, what’s wrong?” Li Zecheng asked.

Rong Rong said, “Nothing. I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable. I want to go home and rest.”

Li Zecheng stopped asking.

After returning to the car, Li Zecheng focused on driving.

Rong Rong kept comparing Huo Xiaoran to Li Zecheng. Was that Huo Xiaoran really better than Li Zecheng?

Did Qiao An really not love Li Zecheng?

She felt extremely conflicted. She felt that she had to find out the truth no matter what. This matter concerned her happiness for the rest of her life.

She even thought of visiting Huo Xiaoran personally.

If she personally appraised them, who was better between him and Li Zecheng?

Who knew if Qiao An would change her mind about Li Zecheng after seeing Li Zecheng rise and Huo Xiaoran fall?

No matter how good-looking Huo Xiaoran was, who would like a man who was only good-looking?

Rong Rong praised Li Zecheng and belittled Huo Xiaoran time and time again, only wanting to give her and Li Zecheng an excuse for their happy marriage.

But she wasn’t a three-year-old. Reason finally overcame intuition.

That evening, after Li Zecheng sent her home, she drove to Heavenly Imperial Garden after Li Zecheng left.
