Please, Professor Xu.
"He deserves it!" Freya didn't feel guilty at all.
"…"
Qiao Qiao couldn't help but sigh and helplessly said, "Freya, you don't have to do this. Why do you have to hurt your hand?"
Father He's eyelids twitched. He couldn't help but look at Qiao Qiao and frown. He wasn't worried that Shaochen would be beaten to death by Freya, but that Freya's hand would hurt?
Freya glanced at her reddened fist and thought for a moment before saying, "That's true. After fighting for so long, my hand hurts too."
Qiao Qiao stopped Freya and heaved a sigh of relief. She turned around and looked down at He Shaochen, who was leaning against the wall. He was also looking at her.
She wasn't angry, and there was no sadness in her eyes. She only smiled faintly and said, "That day, you asked me why I didn't stop those mercenaries. I thought about it, and now I'll tell you the answer. It's because she asked for it. Even if I had to go through the same experience again, I still wouldn't stop them, because Andol deserved it."
She did not know how to forgive Andol.
Because from the beginning to the end, she had never once apologized to her.
"We'll leave the divorce agreement here. If you want to sign it, sign it. If you don't want to, I won't force you. I'll just go through the legal channels."
He Shaochen's eyelids twitched and he finally said, "Qiao Qiao …"
However, the moment he opened his mouth, he spat out a pool of blood. He reckoned that Freya had inflicted internal injuries on him.
Qiao Qiao saw He Shaochen spit out blood and the wound on his shoulder split open. The blood dyed his white shirt red. Her amber eyes were filled with heartache for a moment, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye. When she looked at him again, there was no trace of it.
She closed her eyes and tiredly said to Freya, "Freya, let's go."
When Father He saw that Freya was about to leave, he tried to grab her arm, but she fiercely shook him off. "Get lost!"
Father He: "…"
When the two of them reached the door, He Shaochen forced himself to stand up and said in a deep voice, "Qiao Qiao, no matter what I do, is it irreversible?"
Qiaoqiao's footsteps paused.
She clenched her hands into fists, took a deep breath, and said, "I should be asking you this. He Shaochen, ask yourself honestly, have you ever thought of me these days?"
Who was he degenerating for?
Seeing that He Shaochen did not say anything, Qiao Qiao knew the answer. She bitterly said, "Your heart is already occupied by Andol's death. You can't hold me anymore …"
"I didn't …" He Shaochen wanted to refute, but there was a sudden taste of blood in his throat. He covered his mouth tightly to prevent himself from making a sound.
His hands were already stained red with blood.
"I'm very selfish. I can't stand that the man I love has another woman in his heart. He Shaochen, on account of our love, let me go."
When Qiao Qiao said this, her eyes were already red. She silently said in her heart, "It's time to say goodbye, Shaochen."
Then, she resolutely left.
He Shaochen's eyes were filled with deep despair. Looking at the leaving Qiao Qiao, he froze on the spot for a moment. Suddenly, he broke out in a fit of violent coughing. "Cough cough … cough cough …"
Blood flowed out of his mouth uncontrollably. The injury on his shoulder also oozed blood again because he did not treat it properly.
A strong chill spread from his bone marrow to his whole body. It was so fast that his heart was about to be frozen. He Shaochen did not have time to react. His vision turned black and he completely lost consciousness.
"Shaochen!"
"Young Master …"
For a moment, the room was a mess.

When they were walking out of Family He, Freya saw that Qiao Qiao was silent and could not help but worry, "Qiao Qiao, are you really okay?"
Qiao Qiao was stunned and shook her head, "I'm okay. Anyway, everything is over. Now I feel lighter."
"Haha, that's right. Family He doesn't know how to cherish you, but someone else will." Freya deeply agreed. She suddenly thought of something and asked, "Oh right, did you come here alone, or did that An guy send you here?"
"Professor Xu sent me here. He said that it was not convenient for him to come in, so he waited outside the He residence," Qiao Qiao said honestly.
Such a big incident had happened in the capital, and Emperor Lan was also in an uproar. It was hard for Xu Anting not to know. She did not know how he found out Qiao Qiao's residence.
His gentle appearance and courteous attitude won Freya's favor. These days, Xu Anting frequently came to visit, and Freya always had a smile on her face.
From a long time ago, Freya preferred the elegant type. Qiao Qiao's biological father, Luo Vino, was also like this in front of outsiders, although he was actually a bad guy.
However, in Freya's eyes, he was not bad either.
They had just walked to the entrance when they saw a tall figure leaning against the side of a silver-white car. He was in a suit and tie, and not a hair was out of place.
If it was not Xu Anting, who else could it be?
When he saw Qiao Qiao and Freya come out, Xu Anting stood up straight with a polite smile on his face. "Are you done?"
Freya looked at Xu Anting's handsome face and was a little intoxicated. She said, "What a feast for the eyes!"
When Qiao Qiao heard this, the corners of her mouth twitched involuntarily. She glanced at Freya with embarrassment. She really didn't know that she liked Professor Xu.
However, Qiao Qiao seemed to have forgotten that before she met He Shaochen, she was also infatuated with Xu Anting.
This mother and daughter, regardless of whether it was in terms of appearance or hobbies, were indeed strikingly similar.
"Professor Xu, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
Qiao Qiao said apologetically.
"It's okay." Xu Anting smiled. "Is the matter settled?"
Qiao Qiao's face froze. Freya replied on her behalf, "Family He's a muddle-headed person. He's eating from the bowl and looking at the pot. He's thinking about Andol, but he's unwilling to divorce Qiao Qiao."
Xu Anting's eyes flashed. When he saw Qiao Qiao's gloomy face, he opened the car door and said, "It's windy outside. Let's talk in the car."
Just as Qiao Qiao was about to get into the car, Freya nudged Qiao Qiao and said naturally, "Qiao Qiao, you can sit in the front passenger seat."
"Huh?"
"Go ahead." With that, Freya quickly got into the car and closed the door.
Qiao Qiao glanced at Xu Anting awkwardly. Freya's intentions were too obvious, and this made her feel a little awkward. However, Xu Anting was very tolerant and said, "You can sit in the front passenger seat."
Since there was no way she could sit in the back, Qiao Qiao did not argue. She nodded and sat in the front passenger seat.
"Qiao Qiao, if you insist on getting a divorce, I think I have a way," Xu Anting said to Qiao Qiao as he stared straight ahead.
"Professor Xu?"
Qiao Qiao looked sideways and said, "But He Shaochen has dealings with people in the political world …"
If He Shaochen insisted on not signing the divorce papers, he had the power to get the Civil Affairs Bureau to reject her application.
Xu Anting chuckled and said, "Our Xu family may not be as big as the He family, but we have been in the education industry for so many years, so we have some connections in our hands. As long as you really want a divorce, leave it to me."
Although Xu Anting said that he had some connections, only he knew how extensive his connections were.
Qiao Qiao tried hard to force herself to forget He Shaochen's bloodstained appearance. She struggled for a moment and said, "Then I'll leave it to you, Professor Xu."
"Leave it to me." Xu Anting smiled gently.
Freya sat in the back. Her eyes kept darting between Qiao Qiao and Xu Anting. The more she looked at them, the more she felt that they were a match made in heaven. They were miles ahead of He Shaochen.
