Sister Li opened the door for him.
In her view, the divorce agreent was sothing Huo Shaoyan made An Ge sign, which suggested he was ready to let her go. So, he shouldn’t have appeared here. Yet, his presence now indicated that divorcing him wasn’t going to be that easy.
Sister Li didn’t dare to neglect him. As she invited him in, she said, "The doctor ntioned that after an amniocentesis, the pregnant woman needs to rest in bed for twenty-four hours. Ma’am is currently resting."
Huo Shaoyan changed into his indoor slippers, his voice flat, "You go ahead with your work, I’ll stay for lunch today."
Sister Li made a sound of acknowledgnt and hurried off to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Afterwards, Huo Shaoyan pushed open the door to the master bedroom.
The woman indeed lay on the bed, facing the inside, clearly feigning sleep to avoid him.
Huo Shaoyan stood silently at the foot of the bed, watching her for a while before heading to the washroom.
He had many projects recently, so it was not easy for him to find ti to co here.
He had been awake for two or three days just to fly back and see her.
Huo Shaoyan took a quick cold shower, then erged wrapped in a towel.
After his body dried off, he lifted the blanket next to An Ge and lay down.
An Ge finally couldn’t tolerate it any longer. Nearly the mont he lay down, she sat up abruptly.
Before she could vent her anger, Huo Shaoyan seized the opportunity and pulled her waist into his embrace.
His grip was so strong that he pressed her entirely into his chest, pinning down her restless legs with his own. His voice was thick with emotion, sounding hoarse and almost blurred, "Be good, lie with for a while."
Be good?
Oh, so that’s the treatnt of a pet, isn’t it?
An Ge felt a sting in her nose, her eyes even more so.
Her hands and feet were held captive by the man. Unable to move them, she could only use her words, her voice steadying with restraint, "When will the divorce agreent be signed?"
Huo Shaoyan had already closed his eyes, but he opened them due to her words.
His eyes were red, a deep desire hidden in them.
He studied her for a long mont and then sat up.
Thus, An Ge’s hands and feet were freed.
Huo Shaoyan leaned against the headboard and said to An Ge, who had also sat up, "I got the ring back for you."
An Ge laughed, a hint of sarcasm in her smile. She bit her lip, not saying a word.
By this ti, Huo Shaoyan had taken out the retrieved wedding ring and firmly placed it on An Ge’s ring finger.
His voice remained calm, "You said before it didn’t fit. I had soone re-design a ring that can adjust sizes. It fits now."
An Ge lowered her eyes, gazing at the radiant pink diamond on her ring finger, her voice cold, "So the divorce, you were just saying it casually?"
Huo Shaoyan wasn’t a patient man. He thought he had already given An Ge enough room to maneuver, yet she consistently opposed him, showing complete defiance.
He rubbed his brow, feeling a headache, "An Xiaoge, you’re not stupid. Can’t you see I’m coaxing you?"
An Ge laughed out of anger, "Coaxing ?"
Ignoring Fu Rou’s insults and abuse, giving her the bare minimum to pacify her was "coaxing"?
This man was truly over-confident.
"Huo Shaoyan, what’s the point of this in the end? You neither like nor love , and what’s growing inside might even be the child of your enemy. What’s the point of keeping locked by your side?"
Her words instantly chilled Huo Shaoyan’s face.
He pinched her chin, his Phoenix Eyes ablaze as he looked at her, "The point is when I say you give birth, you give birth. When I say you die, you won’t survive a second. I relish this control, don’t you?"
An Ge’s throat bobbed, but she said nothing.
Huo Shaoyan continued, "You’re not a fool. Stop saying things that make incredibly disgusted. Be good, and you’ll suffer less. Offend , and the outco won’t be pleasant."
Exactly.
Confronted with such an arrogant and brazen rogue, what else could she do?
It seed her plan to run with the baby had to be put into action.
But before that, she couldn’t let the man in front of her detect any suspicion.
With this in mind, An Ge retreated strategically, saying, "President Huo, I understand my situation, and I uphold contract principles. Since you’ve changed your mind, I naturally won’t go against you. Whether this marriage ends or not is up to you."
Seeing her relent, the tight lines across Huo Shaoyan’s brow slightly relaxed.
He pulled her back down beside him, nuzzling his face into her neck to find a soft, sweet spot to kiss and suck, teasing every inch of sensitive skin beneath.
Quickly, his breath grew deep and simring.
Huo Shaoyan wasn’t content with just kissing.
As his hand beca restless and daring, when his fingers began to invade, An Ge spoke up, "President Huo, I need to rest. Could I?"
Huo Shaoyan looked at her luscious, enticing red lips, pinched her chin, and lowered his head to kiss, saying, "Then show your talent and give a good kiss."
Though An Ge had strong reservations against Huo Shaoyan, even if she didn’t mind kissing him, the presence of An Baoying between them made it impossible for her to fully engage.
She asked, "Have you kissed An Baoying?"
Grinding her lips, Huo Shaoyan asked, "Jealous?"
An Ge replied, "No. It’s just... a cleanliness issue, feeling disgusted..."
Of course, the rest of her words were silenced deep in her throat by the man.
The kiss was long and passionate, so much so that An Ge could only go along with the flow.
Huo Shaoyan was truly exhausted, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
By the ti Sister Li finished preparing lunch, there was no sign of him waking.
An Ge, however, was wide-awake.
She tiptoed out of bed and went to the dining room.
While preparing lunch, Sister Li had received a call from Bai ilan.
Bai ilan wanted her to find out whether Huo Shaoyan and An Ge were heading for a divorce or reconciliation.
Sister Li had certain vulnerabilities known to Bai ilan, and she had no choice but to comply with her demands.
Thus, as An Ge slowly sipped her soup, Sister Li subtly inquired, "Ma’am, have you reconciled with President Huo?"
Unconcerned, An Ge replied, "Pretty much. If he doesn’t want a divorce, he won’t let go freely."
Sister Li asked, "And what about your thoughts?"
An Ge rested her cheek in her hand, pondering seriously, "If I could choose, I’d rather never have t him from the beginning."
Looking at her, Sister Li thought for a mont and said, "Actually, if you set aside the fact that President Huo doesn’t love you, he’s quite attentive to your matters. A man of his status will never be tied down by a woman for life. If a woman is smart enough, although she doesn’t get his affections, she can still gain substantial benefits from him."
An Ge understood what Sister Li ant, advising her to secure more money, which was more dependable than emotions.
With a slight smile, An Ge said, "Such a man isn’t un-tieable. I’m just not the person who can tie him down. But you do make so sense."
While speaking, Huo Shaoyan, realizing she was no longer by his side, found her and said, "If you really want to tie down, then show so capability, rather than slipping away when I’m not paying attention."
His tone left no room for dissent, "Co back to bed with . Without you, I can’t sleep well."
After a pause, with a suggestive tone, he added, "Or, if you’re unwilling, I can also do sothing else more aningful with you. Like sothing more enjoyable than sleep... making love!"
