An Ge looked at him silently for a mont after he had spoken, and then she said in a calm tone, "President Huo, do you think five years is long enough for to completely heal from the pain you’ve caused, so much so that you can hurt again in the sa way?" After she said this, her eyes were red and brimming with tears, though she held them back from falling.
Seeing her like this made Young Master Huo’s chest feel uncomfortable.
In a soft voice, he began, "I... didn’t an that. I didn’t intend to stab you in the heart. It’s just that you make feel so insecure now..."
An Ge interrupted him coldly, "So, in the end, you just don’t trust ? If you don’t trust , then why did you remarry in the first place? President Huo, if there isn’t even the most basic trust between a couple, the marriage won’t last long, even if you remarry."
Young Master Huo feared that An Ge would change her mind about the remarriage.
Thus, he temporarily dispelled the idea of redoing the DNA paternity test.
After An Ge finished speaking, he said, "Alright, whatever you say. Since you don’t want to do another paternity test with Huo Huaisang, let’s just proceed with the remarriage today."
He paused, "After we remarry, I’ll let you et your adopted son, Huo Shiqian."
An Ge’s docunts were at [Fusheng Residence].
Therefore, she told Young Master Huo, "My residence permit is at Fusheng Residence. I’ll go back there first. Let’s et at the Civil Affairs Bureau later."
Young Master Huo needed to clarify the entire truth from five years ago, so he needed to find Bai ilan and An Zhiguo.
Thus, he said to An Ge, "I’ll let Qin Lang accompany you to get your docunts. We’ll et at the Civil Affairs Bureau at 11 a.m."
An Ge raised her eyebrows at him, implying, "My adopted son is already in your hands, so I won’t miss the appointnt. There’s no need to specifically send Qin Lang to supervise ..."
Determined to ensure the remarriage, Young Master Huo wouldn’t let anyone hinder his plans, and he certainly wouldn’t allow any mishaps to occur regarding the remarriage.
Therefore, his attitude toward An Ge was overbearing and tyrannical.
He spoke coldly, "Either Qin Lang accompanies you to get the docunts, or I go with you myself."
At this point, seeing Young Master Huo gave An Ge a headache.
Spending even an extra second with him felt suffocating, so she finally chose to have Qin Lang accompany her back to Fusheng Residence.
After this, Young Master Huo left for [An Residence].
anwhile, after An Ge got into Qin Lang’s car and left [Huo Mansion], she sent a text to An Zhiguo.
Upon receiving An Ge’s ssage, An Zhiguo was about to confront Bai ilan.
He had already investigated and found out about the adulterer who fathered An Baoying with Bai ilan.
That adulterer was none other than Bai ilan’s family steward, Lee Dahai.
Before Bai ilan got together with An Zhiguo, she was involved with Lee Dahai, who was then just the Bai Family driver.
In her youth, Bai ilan had been quite promiscuous, engaging in adult activities with Lee Dahai before she even turned eighteen.
Lee Dahai could be considered Bai ilan’s sexual awakening, and when she beca infatuated with An Zhiguo’s young looks, she was still on good terms with Lee Dahai.
However, An Zhiguo’s physical condition couldn’t fulfill Bai ilan’s needs.
So, after marrying An Zhiguo, Bai ilan continued to have affairs with Lee Dahai behind his back.
That’s how An Baoying ca to be.
As An Zhiguo aged and beca less capable in that regard, Bai ilan would et with Lee Dahai almost every week.
Lee Dahai had always been deeply affectionate with her and hadn’t married anyone else because of her.
In short, upon discovering this truth, An Zhiguo threw everything An Ge had told him aside.
No matter what, today he was going to teach Bai ilan a hard lesson and then ensure she and An Baoying beca disgraced and were kicked out with nothing.
Thus, he didn’t check An Ge’s ssage in ti and instead kicked open the master bedroom door.
At that ti, Bai ilan was changing clothes in front of the mirror, planning to go out and et Lee Dahai.
With An Baoying in a terrible situation now, Bai ilan intended to discuss strategies with Lee Dahai to help An Baoying through this crisis.
But just halfway through changing, An Zhiguo stord in with a grim expression.
Seeing this pathetic loser brought her anger, and she snapped at him in dissatisfaction, "An Zhiguo, are you crazy? Why are you kicking the door for no reason?"
Before she could finish her sentence, An Zhiguo, standing in front of her, slapped her face hard, "You slut, haven’t I treated you well? Huh, didn’t I treat you well? Why are you doing this to , why?"
Bai ilan’s face swelled imdiately from the slap, blood staining the corner of her mouth.
She let out a horrific scream, "An Zhiguo, have you gone mad?"
Without letting her finish speaking, An Zhiguo grabbed her hair and pressed her head down against the dressing table.
In an instant, Bai ilan’s face contorted from the pressure.
An Zhiguo looked at her terrified face and roared in imnse anger, "Back then, I abandoned my wife and daughter for you. I wronged Wen Ning and our daughter. Is this how you repay ? You’ve been having an affair with Lee Dahai all along, letting raise a daughter for you and your filthy adulterer like an idiot. You slut, I’ll kill you..."
Bai ilan’s heart pounded with fear, her pupils enlarging in terror as she struggled, "Can you bla , An Zhiguo? It’s your fault you can’t even last three minutes in bed... Ah—"
Before Bai ilan could finish her sentence, An Zhiguo stripped her of her clothes.
He grabbed a rope, tied her to a chair, and took a brow razor, aiming viciously at her lower body, shouting with a hideous expression, "You slut, do you crave a man’s touch that badly? I’ll ruin you right now..."
Bai ilan was in so much pain she nearly fainted.
At that mont, An Zhiguo’s phone rang.
The ringtone brought a mont of clarity back to him.
It was An Ge calling.
An Zhiguo hesitated for a few seconds, then left the master bedroom to answer the call outside. "What is it?" he demanded, breath heavy.
Picking up on sothing strange in his voice, An Ge asked, "You’re not... assaulting Bai ilan, are you?"
An Zhiguo didn’t deny it, stating, "That slut deserves it. Before kicking her out and divorcing her, I have to skin her alive to satisfy my hatred."
After briefly recounting what happened at [Huo Mansion], An Ge stated her purpose, "I can’t let Huo Shaoyan know about the truth between and Huo Huaisang yet. So, when he cos to find you, I hope you’ll keep this secret for . If he asks about Huo Huaisang’s background, just bla it all on Bai ilan. Tell him you have no idea where he ca from."
She paused, implying, "Given Bai ilan’s cunning, she probably won’t dare reveal the truth either. She’ll probably just align her words with An Baoying’s, saying the child was picked up."
An Zhiguo thought for a mont, "Alright. But I want this bitch and her whore daughter dead. Let them die..."
An Zhiguo was agitated beyond belief, causing An Ge to frown.
She waited until An Zhiguo’s emotions had settled a bit before saying, "As long as you don’t act rashly, I’ll make sure they pay a heavy price."
An Zhiguo’s greatest wish now was to avenge Bai ilan and An Baoying, to ultimately seek solace for his late ex-wife Wen Ning and their daughter.
All that mattered to him after that was avoiding prison, so he could spend his later years by his ex-wife’s and daughter’s graves.
And the only one who could help him achieve his wish and escape jail was An Ge.
Thus, he agreed readily, "Alright."
While An Zhiguo was on the phone with An Ge, Bai ilan had already struggled free from the ropes binding her.
She grabbed her phone, locked the master bedroom door from inside, and hid in the bathroom.
Hurriedly, she dialed Lee Dahai’s number, "Dahai... hurry... co save , or we’re all finished..."
After pleading with Lee Dahai for help, Bai ilan received a call from An Baoying.
Newly awakened in the hospital, An Baoying made this call to Bai ilan from the bathroom.
"Mom, Mom, you have to save , Young Master Huo has found out the truth from back then... Dad said I’m not his biological daughter, and he told An Ge that I faked my pregnancy back then... Mom, what on earth is going on, boo hoo..."
It took An Baoying three or four minutes to explain everything.
Enduring the pain inflicted by An Zhiguo, Bai ilan forced herself to remain calm.
Leaning against the bathroom door, she looked at her swollen, sweat-drenched face in the mirror, and it took a mont for her to calmly reassure An Baoying, "Baoying, from now on, if you want to stay alive, listen to what Mom says and play dumb. It’s your only chance for survival..."
Bai ilan, realizing that things had co to their worst, knew that any careless move could leave them with no place to rest in death.
She struggled to remain composed, her voice trembling as she continued, "Baoying, you have to do what I say. You’re carrying Second Master Huo Huo Zhendong’s child, and it’s triplets at that. As long as you play dumb, you can get through this unhard. Don’t worry about the rest."
Pausing, she continued, "If Huo Shaoyan cos to question about what happened five years ago, I’ll put all the bla on An Zhiguo. Trust Mama, we’ll get through this safely."
An Baoying, noticing sothing was wrong with Bai ilan, asked through tears, "Mom, what’s happening? Are you fighting with Dad..."
Bai ilan cut her off, "Listen up: your biological father is Lee Dahai, and An Zhiguo is nothing but filth."
After a pause, she added, "Baoying, do you rember that Jade Pendant? If you really find yourself with nowhere to turn, you have to escape, change your identity, and get plastic surgery to look like Qin Xiaoqi, then take that Jade Pendant to find Huo Shaoyan. Tell him you’re the long-lost Qin Xiaoqi, and by then, we’ll be able to take our revenge, understood?"
An Baoying’s voice trembled, "...Alright, I understand."
...
Half an hour later.
When Young Master Huo arrived at [An Residence], he witnessed An Zhiguo falling from the top floor.
Along with An Zhiguo, Bai ilan also fell.
They both lay unconscious, a pool of blood forming around them.
