An Ge could never comply docilely; she slapped him in anger and then turned to leave.
Young Master Huo watched her disappear quickly from the iron gate, neither calling out to her nor pursuing her. Only after An Ge’s figure vanished completely from view did he turn back to his car.
Inside the car, the bodyguard sitting in the driver’s seat looked at him with a complicated gaze and said, "Young Master, shouldn’t you explain the truth to Ms. An? The young master suffered an old condition triggered by an allergy, and only Ms. An Muxin’s blood can stabilize his condition. Ms. An Muxin is threatening you with this, refusing to agree to her terms would result in her withholding the blood transfusion... I think if Ms. An Ge knew the truth, she would surely understand how difficult it is for you..."
Huo Shaoyan lit a cigarette. Amid the swirl of smoke, he replied, "She wouldn’t."
That woman, from the depths of her being, loathed him so much—how could she possibly understand his difficulty?
"Let’s head back."
The bodyguard asked, "Where to...?"
Huo Shaoyan rolled down the car window, flicked the ash from his cigarette, and as he raised the cigarette to his lips again, he thought of having to donate part of his liver to save Huo Chenghuan, and imdiately snuffed it out.
After extinguishing the cigarette, he said to the bodyguard, "Let’s go to the hospital."
The bodyguard said, "Do you still want to have another chat with Ms. An Muxin?"
Huo Shaoyan coldly acknowledged with a grunt.
When Huo Shaoyan went to the hospital to find An Muxin, An Ge received a call from An Muxin, who was hospitalized.
An Ge answered her call and started the recording function.
An Ge took the initiative, saying, "What? Are you calling to show off your triumphs to ?"
An Muxin indeed called to show off. She laughed and said, "Brother Yan must have co to see you, right?"
An Ge replied, "He did co to see . But..."
An Muxin asked, "But what?"
An Ge deliberately infuriated An Muxin, saying with a half-smirk, "But he didn’t co seeking justice with , he ca... to have pleasure with ."
As soon as she said this, An Muxin exploded.
She shouted, "That’s impossible. I clearly told him if you don’t apologize to , this won’t end..."
An Ge interrupted her, "He’s currently taking a shower, and soon he’ll be holding , lost in ecstasy. Do you think he cares about what you said?"
An Muxin lost control of her emotions, "An Ge, you bitch, I’ll really report you to the police!"
An Ge continued to provoke her, saying, "Seeing how obsessed President Huo is with , he would certainly protect . You don’t even know how frantic he gets when he sees ... So, tell , don’t you feel pitiful? You orchestrated a self-harming act, thinking you gained the upper hand, and yet? Didn’t President Huo leave you injured at the hospital while he sought pleasure with and got entangled in passion with ?"
An Muxin was thoroughly enraged and lost her reason.
Without realizing what she said, she scread, "You bitch, do you think I’d put on this act and suffer a broken leg for nothing? I will definitely make you pay."
An Ge went along with her words, "What kind of dire consequences do you want to face? You staged a fall from the stairs, intending to accuse and drag into a lawsuit. But what happened? Things didn’t go as planned, did they? President Huo, after all, stood by ."
An Muxin was incoherent with rage, "My... my uncle is a head of the police; even if Huo Shaoyan supports you, as long as I throw a tantrum with my uncle, he will back up!"
An Ge curled her lips into a smile.
Her laughter was loud and mocking.
An Muxin was furious, her voice agitated, "You’re already in grave danger, why are you laughing?"
An Ge stated coldly, "I’m laughing at how foolish you are, what else can I laugh at? Hah, to be honest, you are pretty smart sotis. But other tis, words alone can’t describe how pigheaded you are."
An Muxin was so angry her teeth chattered, "You, An..."
An Ge cut her off, "Don’t rush to shout. I’ve already recorded every word of our conversation. You not only admitted that you staged your fall but also intended to use your uncle’s power to bully others. How about I post this recording online? Do you think your uncle’s position would be in jeopardy? And you, wouldn’t you be ruined?"
After saying this, An Ge hung up An Muxin’s call, leaving An Muxin so furious she nearly fell off her hospital bed.
An Ge then edited a bit of that recorded conversation and sent it to Huo Shaoyan before switching off her phone and going to bed.
anwhile, as Huo Shaoyan reached the hospital, he noticed the audio recording An Ge sent him.
Getting out of the car, he played the audio as he walked towards An Muxin’s hospital room.
Inside the hospital room, An Muxin was venting her anger on her bodyguard, Gu Changfeng.
"Gu Changfeng, why on earth do I keep you? Why can’t you just take care of that bitch An Ge for ?"
Gu Changfeng showed no emotion despite her yelling.
He only stated objectively, "Miss, she’s not soone we can afford to offend right now. If sothing happens to her, considering President Huo’s temperant, do you think we’d have good days ahead? Would the An Family have good tis?"
An Muxin was so angry her chest hurt, and she was on the verge of tears, "Then what do you suggest? Are you going to let her trample all over ?"
Gu Changfeng replied, "Miss, a forced fruit is not sweet. President Huo doesn’t like you. Why persist? Countless successful young n admire you..."
An Muxin interrupted him, "Are you trying to say you like too?" She paused before yelling at Gu Changfeng, "A toad trying to swallow a swan, you think you’re worthy?"
Because of her words, Gu Changfeng looked deeply at her and laughed.
He said, "Miss, when you speak like that, do you forget all those monts beneath when you felt good?"
An Muxin retorted angrily, "Gu Changfeng, shut up! I just wanted to borrow your seed, get pregnant, and marry Huo Shaoyan soon..."
Gu Changfeng said in a calm tone, "Miss, I an no disrespect. I just want to remind you that if you beco too obsessed with so things, you might not be able to handle the consequences."
An Muxin dismissed it, "Is there anything in this world the An Family can’t handle?"
An Muxin’s words ended the conversation with Gu Changfeng.
Huo Shaoyan entered the room shortly after.
His expression was dark as if he could peel her alive, and An Muxin, recalling the phone call with An Ge and that she said it was recorded, grew visibly uneasy.
She nervously looked at Huo Shaoyan, attempting to speak when he coldly interrupted her, "An Muxin, do you really want to fall out with you?"
An Muxin, recalling all the humiliation and resentnt from Huo Shaoyan’s years of cold sarcasm, erupted at his words.
She retorted coldly and sarcastically, "Huo Shaoyan, how else would you like to fall out with ? You took my purity and then failed to take responsibility, went so far as to sacrifice hundreds of millions to break our engagent, leaving unable to raise my head in our circle. Do you think I would endure such humiliation if I wasn’t dead set on loving you? Let tell you, if you really cut ties with , don’t expect to give Huo Huaisang blood to save him."
Huo Shaoyan said nothing, but the look he gave her was cold and frightening.
An Muxin dared not et his eyes directly.
She looked away, gritting her teeth as she continued to speak with Huo Shaoyan, "Huo Shaoyan, I advise you to treat better; otherwise, neither of us will have a good ti."
Huo Shaoyan walked over to her in quick strides as she spoke.
He bent down, raised her chin with his hand.
His grip was strong, and An Muxin frowned from the pain.
She was forced to lift her head completely.
With her eyes eting his aggressive gaze, she said with grievance, "Huo Shaoyan, you’re hurting , let go..."
Huo Shaoyan released her chin.
He raised his hand, slapping her face heavily, almost as if mocking, "Threatening ?"
An Muxin was intimidated by this unpredictable Huo Shaoyan. Her tone quivered, stuttering, "It’s... It’s all because of you forcing ..."
Huo Shaoyan cut her off, "I’m soone who is best at making threats. Try it, and see what price you’ll pay for threatening ."
He paused, continuing to speak to An Muxin with precise intention, "An Muxin, ask yourself, over the years, have I ever mistreated you? Have I ever let you suffer a disadvantage even once? I’ve always appreciated your blood donation to alleviate Huai Shang’s rare blood condition. In return, I’ve been the largest sponsor of your dance performances every year. I willingly spent money to help you beco a leading dancer in the circle. What gives you the right to say such things to now?"
An Muxin was montarily at a loss for words from being cornered by Huo Shaoyan’s remarks.
[Imperial City, the An Family was a political family], with most of the elders in the family pursuing governntal careers.
Those in governnt tended to see themselves as superior and high-minded; her elders despised entertainers and dancers from the outset, disapproving of An Muxin’s dance path.
If not for Huo Shaoyan’s financial backing over the years, An Muxin would never have achieved her current success in the dance world.
Therefore, Huo Shaoyan’s words left her speechless.
Huo Shaoyan continued with his sharp tone towards An Muxin, "This is my last warning to you: don’t ever try to test my limits."
He paused and said, "I can tell you right now, my limit is An Ge. If you set your twisted intentions on her, I will ensure you never lift your head in your lifeti!"
An Muxin looked at Huo Shaoyan in disbelief, finally finding her voice after so ti, "An Ge is your limit? Then where does that leave my cousin, Qin Xiaoqi?"
Huo Shaoyan gripped her neck, just enough pressure would cut off An Muxin’s breath entirely.
An Muxin’s subsequent words were choked off.
With fear in her eyes, she dared not even breathe as she watched Huo Shaoyan’s reddened eyes.
She heard the man give her a heartless warning, "Don’t think that just because you resemble Xiaoqi, my treatnt of you will be special. Rember, in my eyes, you’re only fit to carry An Ge’s shoes, and still unworthy."
