An Ge had no ti for nonsense with him, so she directly cut him off, saying,
"Cut the crap, you and Bai ilan better head to [Jingcheng Hospital] imdiately. Your precious daughter passed out, and the Huo Family’s doctor initially diagnosed her as pregnant. Congratulations, you’re really about to rise to power with a child on the way."
With that, An Ge hung up on An Zhiguo.
After understanding what An Ge had said, An Zhiguo raised his hand and angrily slapped Bai ilan. Bai ilan dodged just in ti, and the slap landed on her shoulder instead.
As An Zhiguo was about to land another slap, Bai ilan hurriedly said,
"Zhiguo, listen to first. I only had Baoying pretend to be pregnant for the sake of your futures..."
The two had just been arguing because Bai ilan had revealed this to him, inciting An Zhiguo’s rage.
An Zhiguo was beside himself with fury and yelled,
"This useless idiot of a daughter! Baoying isn’t even pregnant, and you had her feign pregnancy to deceive Young Master Huo. You’re driving her and our entire family to ruin! Did you hear that? Young Master Huo wants us to head to [Jingcheng Hospital] imdiately. As soon as they run any tests, we’re done for."
Bai ilan was calm and replied,
"Zhiguo, I’ve already set everything up. I spent a fortune on the black market for an amazing special-effect drug. As long as she takes it every day, Baoying’s body indicators will match those of a pregnant woman. During the early stages, routine hospital checks won’t find anything amiss.
In short, we just need to make Young Master Huo believe Baoying is pregnant with his child and marry her soon. Later, we can bribe a doctor to invent so excuse about the fetus not developing and terminate it. Besides, An Ge has Mrs. Huo’s backing now.
If her child is born safely under Mrs. Huo’s protection, that’s a ticking ti bomb. If we can’t get rid of An Ge and her child, why not turn the tables and switch her baby with ours once it’s safely delivered? That’ll give us a backup plan. What do you think?"
Bai ilan’s words quickly soothed An Zhiguo’s anger.
An Zhiguo cald down swiftly. Things had reached a point where he had no choice but to take the risk.
Thinking of this, he asked Bai ilan, "Are you sure your drug is reliable?"
Bai ilan replied, "Of course, I’m sure. A single pill is worth a million. For the sake of your and Baoying’s future, I invested twenty million."
An Zhiguo’s brows furrowed with frustration,
"You damn woman, you spent twenty million behind my back. Just wait, if this sses things up, I’ll have your hide."
After saying this, An Zhiguo called An Ge back.
By this ti, An Ge was already in the car heading to [Jingcheng Hospital], though she was riding in the servant’s car, not the sa one as Huo Shaoyan.
An Ge hesitated for a few seconds before answering his call, "What is it?"
"I wanted to ask you why, in the evening, Young Master Huo urgently summoned your elder sister to the Huo Family."
After getting in the servant’s car heading to [Jingcheng Hospital], An Ge had been pondering why Huo Shaoyan wouldn’t let go of the cellar incident and why An Baoying lied about the canvas bag.
Now, An Zhiguo’s probing tone made it impossible for An Ge not to wonder.
Thinking of this, An Ge said, "Young Master Huo wanted to clarify whether the peony-embroidered canvas bag was mine or An Baoying’s."
As soon as she said this, An Zhiguo’s breath hitched, and he anxiously asked, "Then... What did you say?"
An Ge answered the question with another,
"An Zhiguo, why did An Baoying lie about the canvas bag being hers and claim she embroidered it? What are you and she hiding from ?"
An Zhiguo had the speakerphone on, and An Ge’s question left him speechless.
