An Ge did not respond to Jiang Fengmian’s words.
She sent the address for the eting to Jiang Fengmian and then went to see Jerry.
Because Mo Yuan requested it, she t Jerry with her eyes covered throughout, and her phone was turned off.
After leaving Castle Manor, she got into a van halfway. The van drove for about forty minutes, and then she seed to board a speedboat.
The speedboat sailed for about an hour, and she boarded a cruise ship...
After that, she got on a helicopter.
When she reached the destination with her eyes covered, it was at least four hours later.
It was an isolated island surrounded by sea.
After being led off the plane, An Ge was guided by Mo Yuan into a magnificent castle.
The entire castle was under military managent, even the guards at the entrance were ard.
Once Mo Yuan brought An Ge into the castle, she said to An Ge, "I am only responsible for bringing you here."
The implication was that her task was done, and she had to leave.
As for whether she lived or died, it depended on her luck.
After Mo Yuan left, soone ca to receive An Ge.
The person who received her was quite polite:
"Sir asks you to wait for a mont. He will co to see you when he finishes his work."
An Ge nodded, "Okay."
She sat there for half an hour.
After half an hour, An Ge was taken by a servant to a study.
The study was grand like a palace.
However, it was only lit by a vintage floor lamp inside.
Within the halo of light, a man wearing a silver mask sat gracefully on the sofa.
He was holding a photo album in his hand.
Seeing her enter, the man put down the photo album.
He gestured to her to co closer.
The study was filled with so unknown calming incense, its aroma was faint and not overwhelming, but pleasant and inexplicably relaxing.
An Ge’s uneasy heart cald down at this mont.
She walked towards the man sitting on the sofa.
Getting closer, she saw the photo album casually placed on the desk by the man.
The album featured a man with long hair.
He held a little girl with two braided pigtails in his arms, the girl seed to be five or six years old.
She obediently snuggled into his neck, her eyes were big, black, and round, looking very spirited.
An Ge thought the little girl was herself in her youth, and the man with long hair whose facial features were unclear was the man in front of her... Jerry.
At this mont, the man on the sofa noticed her looking at the photo and spoke to her proactively: "The man in the photo is , the little girl is you."
Receiving confirmation, An Ge wasn’t too shocked.
She was more curious and deeply puzzled.
She asked the man, "So, I want to know, what is my relationship with you?"
The man raised his slender, jade-like fingers and pinched his brow.
His fingers were extrely slender, every joint was proportionate and fair, it was a pair of pampered hands.
These hands reminded An Ge of Mo Linfeng.
The man who had no calluses when he shook hands with her.
"When Ah Sheng gave birth to you, she had labor pains for three days and nights."
An Ge, hearing this, knew the background was deep.
She asked, "So, who are you, and what is your relationship with my mother?"
But the man did not answer her question, rely stated:
"Because giving birth to you ant her entire pregnancy, including late stages, was very painful. During delivery, she almost died at the border’s dical rescue station. So, from the day you were born,
you should have died. But, Ah Sheng cherished you like her precious eyes, you were brought into the world with half her life sacrificed, so I couldn’t make her unhappy. I did not kill you."
An Ge felt a chill rise in her heart.
She looked at the other person and said:
"You hate because my arrival caused my mother pain throughout her pregnancy?"
The man said coldly:
"Of course. Because giving birth to you caused her lifespan to sharply reduce to only thirty years back then. Now, the fact that she can still breathe is because I’m exhausting all efforts to sustain her life."
An Ge remained calm, she asked:
"Judging from your tone, you must love my mother deeply and know everything about her past. So, I want to know, who is my biological father..."
The man replied, "Your father is ."
An Ge was shocked.
She didn’t believe it, "I don’t believe it."
The man then smiled with a sinister charm:
"You inherited your mother’s talent in dicine, you can completely draw my blood for a DNA paternity test."
Jerry and Fu Huaijin are identical twins.
If Fu Huaijin’s daughter does a DNA paternity test with him, the result will be the sa.
Thus, Jerry entirely doesn’t fear An Ge doing a paternity test with him.
In this world, as long as he doesn’t say that An Ge is Fu Huaijin’s daughter, this secret will always be hidden.
"DNA doesn’t lie."
Jerry’s words ca to An Ge again,
"Although you are my daughter, I still don’t like you. But, your mother now needs your blood, you cannot refuse to save her."
Paused for a mont,
"The child in your womb will beco a burden to save your mother. I hope you get rid of it. If you can’t, I can help you."
An Ge’s mind is blank now.
She has muddled through more than twenty years and has been searching for her biological parents for so many years. Her biological parents are still alive now, but her emotions... are beyond words.
Her biological father imdiately wants her to terminate the child in her womb.
She licked her dry lips, and after a while, she said,
"I want to see my mother first..."
"Okay."
The man agreed straightforwardly.
Half an hour later, An Ge stood in a sterile gown at the door of a sterile chamber, looking through a glass door at the woman lying inside.
The woman lay there, her face as pale as if she had died many years ago, but the monitoring instrunts on her showed she was still very much alive.
Across a glass door, An Ge looked at the woman sleeping peacefully,
After a long ti, she turned to the masked man beside her and asked, "Can I go in and see her?"
"No."
The man said and then explained,
"She is very fragile and can only stay in a sterile environnt. If you go in to see her, it will bring her great troubles; she might lose her life completely from a small cold."
An Ge nodded, indicating she understood.
Afterward, she left the sterile chamber with the man.
Arriving at the study room where they were negotiating earlier, she said, "I want to ask you a question."
The man said, "Ask."
An Ge looked into his eyes, finding them incredibly deep, yet not unfamiliar to her.
It seed she had seen them recently but couldn’t recall where exactly at the mont.
"I want to know why, during the ti my mother and Mr. Fu were discussing marriage, she chose to be with you. And why was she willing to be pregnant with your child? From what I know,
back then, my mother Lady Qin Huaisheng and Mr. Fu Huaijin were deeply in love. They grew up together and shared life-and-death bonds. Logically, she shouldn’t have betrayed her vows of love to Mr. Fu and chosen you instead..."
The man, who was emotionally stable until now, suddenly lost control.
He grabbed her neck and angrily shouted,
"No, the one she loves is , not that hypocrite Fu Huaijin. Shut up, shut up imdiately!"
Instantly, An Ge lost her breath.
Her throat was sore from being choked, and her survival instinct made her struggle desperately.
But the man did not let her go just yet.
Her throat felt increasingly painful, her breathing more constrained, and she even felt dizzy from the lack of oxygen.
Dizzy, nauseous, with her vision darkened, her body lost its function...
In the overwhelming helplessness, she completely lost consciousness.
When she woke up again, she was in Jiang Fengmian’s Haitang Garden.
An Ge abruptly opened her eyes and suddenly sat up in shock, yet before her mind fully processed everything, a voice slamd into her eardrums, "Awake?"
An Ge looked where the voice ca from to see the man standing by the floor-to-ceiling window glance at her.
Perhaps because she had just woken up, her head was groggy, causing her vision to blur, and she couldn’t see the man’s face clearly for a mont.
"I found you by the riverbank."
This statent finally restored normal thought in An Ge’s mind, "Riverside?"
The man responded with an indifferent mmm,
"After you called last night, I started looking for you. I searched most of the night and found you unconscious at Jiangbei Pier."
An Ge’s throat hurt a bit, "Can you pour a glass of water first?"
Jiang Fengmian poured her a glass of water, handed it to her, and said,
"Now, tell , what troubles did you encounter after you called last night?"
For a mont, An Ge didn’t know how to speak or where to begin.
She thought for a mont, spent about fifteen minutes clarifying her relationship with Mo Yuan and what happened when she t Jerry last night.
After Jiang Fengmian listened, he asked, "Do you believe what Jerry said?"
An Ge shook her head, "I don’t believe it."
She doesn’t believe that any biological father in this world would harm his biological daughter like that.
If Jerry was really her biological father, his biggest mistake wouldn’t be letting Mo Yuan ruin her relationship with Huo Shaoyan, nor forcing her to get rid of the child in her womb...
Therefore, An Ge doesn’t believe it.
Her words continued,
"But, I really did see my mother, and she indeed needs now. I just... don’t know what to do."
Jiang Fengmian said, "Huo Shaoyan is downstairs. You can tell him the whole truth; perhaps we can figure sothing out together..."
An Ge shook her head, "It’s useless. Huo Shaoyan... he is no longer the Huo Shaoyan he used to be. I don’t know what Mo Yuan did to him,
he not only forgot but also deeply despises . Even if I tell him the truth, he won’t help ; his mind is full of Mo Yuan..."
Jiang Fengmian interrupted her, "You’re too hasty to conclude without trying."
An Ge pursed her lips, looked at the sunset outside the window, and asked, "How long was I unconscious?"
Jiang Fengmian said, "A day."
An Ge asked, "Why is he here with you?"
Jiang Fengmian said, "I called Mrs. Huo and told her you weren’t doing well, and Mrs. Huo forced Huo Shaoyan to co over."
An Ge thought for a mont and said, "Alright, I’ll see him in a bit."
Jiang Fengmian responded with an mmm and went downstairs first.
Once downstairs, Jiang Fengmian saw Mo Yuan, who had arrived at an unknown ti.
She was sitting on the sofa beside Huo Shaoyan, already acting as if she were Mrs. Huo.
Jiang Fengmian looked at her displeasedly, frowning, and gave her a long, hard look, saying, "Ms. Mo, I didn’t invite you."
