Young Master Huo was so furious his lungs were about to explode, while An Ge on the other side, at the budget hotel, was completely unaware.
She lay on the sofa, covered in cold sweat, and after the intense dizziness subsided, she called for room service. Forcing herself to eat, she set an alarm clock and climbed into bed, falling into a deep sleep.
The alarm went off at five o’clock in the evening. After waking up, she felt like her body had regained so strength, and her dizziness had eased.
After freshening up and having a good al, she changed into a set of black clothes: black pants and a black jacket. She pinned a small white flower to her chest and then headed for An Baoying’s engagent party venue with Ms. Wen Ning’s urn. She intended to expose the repugnant faces of An Zhiguo and his family in front of the entire high society of Jincheng and seek justice for her mother.
An Baoying’s engagent party was being held at the Baiyulan Chain Hotel, the most upscale hotel all over Jincheng. However, she was stopped at the door because she didn’t have an invitation. But then she saw Xiao Chaofeng arriving with Nan Xiao.
Seeing An Ge carrying an urn shocked both Xiao Chaofeng and Nan Xiao, especially Nan Xiao. Looking at An Ge’s bloodless face and pale lips, Nan Xiao’s voice trembled, "An Ge, what happened?"
An Ge forced a smile at her and said lightly, "I lost my mom."
Nan Xiao’s nose tingled, and tears almost fell.
She stepped forward to hug An Ge, "Silly girl, why didn’t you tell about sothing this big?"
An Ge’s nose also tingled a bit, and she replied, "It’s alright. Everyone dies. Considering all the suffering she endured, death might be a release for her."
After comforting her for a while, Nan Xiao asked, "Why did you co here..."
An Ge pressed her lips, saying, "My mom suffered so much, but those who caused her death are living happily. I want her to rest in peace."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chaofeng narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "You’re not planning to ruin Huo Shaoyan and An Baoying’s engagent party, are you?"
An Ge responded calmly, "I just want to use this venue to expose An Zhiguo’s ugly face of cheating and abandoning his wife and daughter. As for whether it ruins Young Master Huo and An Baoying’s engagent party, that depends on whether Young Master Huo still wants to accept her after knowing her true face. The choice is his, not mine."
Xiao Chaofeng said nothing.
An Ge continued, "So, can you do a favor and take in? I don’t have an invitation."
Xiao Chaofeng was just about to refuse, but Nan Xiao glanced at him and said, "Didn’t you want to reunite with your widow? Now is your chance to prove yourself."
Xiao Chaofeng was Nan Xiao’s first husband, and her second husband disappeared on the battlefield the day after their wedding night and was said to have died, leaving her a widow for many years.
Thanks to Xiao Chaofeng, An Ge successfully entered the engagent party.
The grand engagent party venue was filled with the elite figures from all over Jincheng.
An Zhiguo and Bai ilan were enjoying the fawning and flattery from the dignitaries.
"President An and Mrs. An are truly blessed."
"Who wouldn’t agree? I have a daughter too, but I could never raise her to be as outstanding as Ms. An."
"Exactly, exactly. President An and Mrs. An must have done a great job in educating her. Otherwise, how could Ms. An Baoying have caught Young Master Huo’s attention?"
"I heard President An also has a son abroad, who is a fraternal twin with Ms. An Baoying. I have a younger daughter around the sa age if President An doesn’t mind. Maybe our families could beco in-laws?"
Amid the exchanges, An Baoying, in a bright red evening dress, walked arm in arm with Huo Shaoyan down the red carpet.
Fu Rou and Shen Hongxiu followed behind them.
As soon as they appeared, the room erupted in deafening applause.
The host seized the mont to grab the microphone and began setting the atmosphere.
An Ge, hiding in the shadows, ca out holding her mother’s urn just as the atmosphere reached its peak and appeared in the middle of the banquet hall.
Compared to the finely dressed guests, her appearance in all black holding an urn was particularly eerie, even strange.
Her appearance shocked everyone, especially unsettling the family of An Baoying.
Only Huo Shaoyan looked at her with seemingly calm eyes.
He stared at her paper-white little face and the urn in her hands, feeling a deep inexplicable pain inside.
What happened?
Hadn’t he already asked Xiao Chaofeng to contact Jiang Fengmian?
How did things turn out like this overnight?
Did she really lose her mother?
Huo Shaoyan’s throat bobbed violently, and his hands hanging by his sides clenched into fists.
Yet, other than that, he showed no other emotion.
Sitting in a wheelchair, Fu Rou sensed the sudden quietness around her and quickly asked Shen Hongxiu beside her, "Ah Xiu, what’s happening?"
Shen Hongxiu replied, "It’s An Ge. I don’t know what she’s up to, but she’s holding an urn."
Fu Rou, outraged, said, "Get her out of here imdiately."
In the midst of speaking, An Ge already placed her mother’s urn respectfully on the podium and grabbed the microphone from the host’s hand.
She spoke into the microphone to everyone, "Ladies and gentlen, let introduce myself. I am An Zhiguo and Wen Ning’s daughter. My na is An Ge, twenty years old. Yet An Baoying is two years older than I am, and she’s my older sister.
Can you all see it? She is An Zhiguo’s illegitimate daughter, born to Bai ilan from an affair during his marriage. Afterward, they drove my mother out of the An Family by any ans necessary.
An Zhiguo didn’t just abandon his wife and daughter; he forced my mother to sell a kidney to help him get through an economic crisis at his company. Do you think a scumbag like that can raise any kind of decent daughter?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the whole place erupted into chaos.
Bai ilan and An Zhiguo were terrified that An Ge’s blatant remarks wouldn’t just ruin An Baoying’s wedding but also their reputation.
So they almost simultaneously lunged toward An Ge.
An Zhiguo tried to grab the microphone from An Ge’s hand, while Bai ilan leaned closer to An Ge’s ear, threatening, "You little brat, even if your mom is dead, you still have an uncle with dentia in a ntal hospital. Do you want to see him suffer?"
An Ge’s pupils slightly trembled.
Bai ilan, seeing this, beca much calr.
At this mont, she took the microphone from An Zhiguo’s hand and addressed all the guests, "I apologize for showing such a farce. The girl just lost her mother and has never gotten along with us, so she’s here to cause trouble. But any of you who know Zhiguo should know how he’s treated his ex-wife over the years. Ever since his ex-wife got sick, Zhiguo has been the one supporting her.
How many ex-husbands in the world can be that gracious to their ex-wives? As for Zhiguo’s divorce from his ex-wife, the truth is that she cheated first. At that ti, An Ge, the little brat, was just a month old. Zhiguo considered An Ge was still breastfed,
Even though he completed the divorce procedures with his ex-wife, he didn’t make it public. Anyway, Zhiguo and I have a legitimate marriage, and we’ve wronged no one. Today is a happy day for Baoying and Young Master Huo. I cannot allow this obnoxious girl to slander us with foul words. It’s a slap in our faces and also Young Master Huo’s..."
Her words had just fallen when Huo Shaoyan’s voice cut through the banquet hall rcilessly, "What a disgrace you all are. This has nothing to do with ."
