Upon hearing this, An Ge was so frightened that she was almost out of her mind. Her heart pounded like a drum as she stamred, "Just... just twenty."
When she finished speaking, the man released her neck. Then, a frosty male voice ca through, "Considering your young and naive age, I'll let you off this ti."
He instructed Qin Lang, "Settle the bill and get her out of the Huo Family imdiately."
Hearing this, Qin Lang was montarily taken aback and reminded him again, "Sir, she is one of the fewer than a hundred people worldwide who carry the Rhnull blood type. Are you sure..."
"Shut up!"
Even though Young Master Huo suffered from a strange illness, he was not desperate enough to survive on the blood of young won.
Five minutes later, when An Ge received her salary of ten thousand yuan and was about to leave the [Huo Mansion], she saw a group of police officers in uniforms approaching from the direction of the cellar. They were carrying a stretcher, and the body on it was covered with a white sheet. Judging by the rigidity of the fingers, the person was probably already dead.
Curious, An Ge asked the gardener sweeping the road nearby, "Uncle Wang, what happened?"
"They say a fugitive died in the cellar of the East Garden. I'm not sure about the details."
An Ge was startled and quickly asked, "Is it the cellar in the secret forbidden area?"
"Yes, that's the one."
Uncle Wang, who liked to gossip, lowered his voice and said to An Ge, "I heard this fugitive was quite the womanizer. Before he died, he was with a woman, and his body was covered with won's scratches. When they found him, he wasn't even wearing pants. In my opinion, he probably died on top of that woman. Now the police are tracking her down, saying she is a key clue to solving the case."
Hearing this, An Ge couldn't help but falter for a mont.
Last night, her virginity was lost in that cellar. Yet she suspected the man in the cellar was Huo Shaoyan, because his voice was very similar.
Thinking of this, An Ge began to subtly inquire from Uncle Wang, "Uncle Wang, Young Master Huo, when did he co back to the [Huo Mansion]?"
Uncle Wang said, "I heard from the butler that he only returned from abroad this morning."
Upon hearing this, An Ge felt a little disappointed deep inside.
So, the man who spent that spring night with her last night was this dead fugitive?
Afraid of getting embroiled with the case, An Ge dared not linger and soon left the [Huo Mansion].
...
For an entire month, she was on edge.
It wasn't until a month later when news ca that the case had been solved that she finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had eaten enough bitter als in prison; if she got involved because of such a frivolous affair again, her life would be over.
One evening, a month later, An Zhiguo angrily scolded her over the phone:
"You little brat, your phone's been unreachable for a month. I thought you were dead out there. Since you're not, I don't care where you are. Get back here imdiately. Tonight, your elder sister's fiancé is coming over for dinner at our house for the first ti, and as a mber of the An Family, you must be present."
He paused,
"Besides, your Aunt Lan has convinced Boss Wu to overlook past grievances and marry you. Boss Wu will also be there tonight, and if you dare not co, I'll make sure you never see your mother again."
This past month, An Ge, fearing the murder case, had lived a turned-around life. She slept during the day and worked as a cashier at an internet café at night.
Because she knew she still had so value left in An Zhiguo's eyes, she wasn't afraid of what he would do to her mother.
So, during this ti, she had turned off her phone and cut ties with the An Family.
At this mont, An Zhiguo's call caused An Ge a few more monts of panic.
She practically hung up the phone and imdiately took a cab back to the [An Family].
As she walked through the front door of the living room, An Zhiguo ordered the household servants to tie her up,
"Even if you have to knock her out, make sure she's properly bathed and dressed up. Tonight, she must spend the night with Boss Wu."
"Yes."
After a forced grooming and makeover, An Ge was brought by An Zhiguo to the door of a guest room.
Boss Wu, who was fifty this year and recently widowed, was quite prestigious in the construction industry.
An Zhiguo wanted a billion-dollar investnt from Boss Wu, so he agreed to offer An Ge to him for enjoynt. If satisfied, they would beco in-laws, if not, the contract would still be signed.
In any case, this deal was profitable from any angle.
An Ge refused to cooperate, so An Zhiguo threatened her by showing her the surveillance footage of her mother,
"You little brat, as long as you're willing to accompany Boss Wu and let him have his fun, I promise you, daddy will let you see your mom after everything is done. Otherwise, just wait to collect your mom's body."
