Chapter 102: Chapter 102 Deeply Infatuated~

Jiang Fengmian’s words continued, "Didn’t you whisper to him that tonight’s gathering was organized by An Ge and Xiao Ye?"

Xiao Chaofeng sneered, "I just wanted to see his worthless look. Of all things to fall for, he had to go for a woman who gets pregnant before marriage, getting caught up in some deep forbidden love within a wealthy family drama?"

Huo Shaoyan didn’t pay him any mind and continued drinking.

Jiang Fengmian picked up where he left off and mocked, "You think you’re any better? Lusting after a widow?"

Xiao Chaofeng snapped, "You better shut your damn mouth!"

Seeing that they were about to start a fight, the already impatient Huo Shaoyan asked, "Why aren’t they here yet?"

Just as he said this, Xiao Chaofeng’s phone vibrated.

It was Xiao Ye calling.

Xiao Chaofeng answered and put it on speaker.

"Uncle, we were in a car accident. [We’re cooperating with the traffic police now, so we might be a little late.]"

Xiao Chaofeng showed no sympathy for his foolish nephew, "As long as you’re not dead."

As he was about to hang up the call, Huo Shaoyan glanced at him.

He just glared at him without speaking.

Jiang Fengmian, knowing him well, asked Xiao Ye on the other end, "That An girl, is she hurt?"

Xiao Ye replied, "No."

Xiao Ye ended the call after saying that.

He walked towards An Ge, musing to himself, "Why is Jiang Fengmian here too?"

An Ge wasn’t injured.

However, her cellmate was hurt quite severely, with a large bruise on her forehead.

An Ge looked at her with concern and asked, "Nan Xiao, are you alright?"

Nan Xiao smirked, "I’m fine. Just a small injury. Let’s hurry, we don’t want to hold up your important matters."

An Ge asked, "Are you really okay?"

"Really, I’m fine."

Xiao Ye approached them and said, "Let the driver handle the traffic police. Let’s take a cab to Huangchao. My uncle isn’t known for his patience."

...

Twenty minutes later, the three of them appeared in [Suite No. 1 at Huangchao].

Xiao Ye walked in first, followed closely by An Ge and Nan Xiao.

The lighting in the suite was dim, making it hard to see the layout clearly at first, but they could immediately spot Xiao Chaofeng seated at the main position.

An Ge approached Xiao Chaofeng and introduced Nan Xiao, "Master Xiao, this is my cellmate Nan Xiao..."

Before she could finish, Xiao Chaofeng nearly lost control and walked over to Nan Xiao.

He grabbed her shoulders, eyes bloodshot as he looked at her with a gaze so fierce it was almost as if he wanted to devour her, yet his voice was calm, "You’re out of prison, huh?"

When An Ge invited Nan Xiao to meet Xiao Chaofeng, Nan Xiao had already prepared herself to face him.

She replied indifferently, "Long time no see, ex-husband."

Xiao Chaofeng clenched his teeth, cursed, then forcibly grabbed Nan Xiao’s wrist and dragged her away.

An Ge and Xiao Ye were both stunned.

Xiao Ye, in particular, was so shocked his pupils dilated, "Damn, when did my uncle get married, and when did he get divorced? How come I didn’t know at all?"

Jiang Fengmian hadn’t expected An Ge’s cellmate to be Xiao Chaofeng’s secretly married and now divorced ex-wife either.

Jiang Fengmian glanced at Huo Shaoyan sitting in the shadows and kicked him, "I don’t drink with kids, are you leaving or not?"

At his words, An Ge and Xiao Ye realized that aside from Jiang Fengmian, Huo Shaoyan was also in the suite.

An Ge, almost immediately after Jiang Fengmian spoke, said to Xiao Ye, "I’ll call Nan Xiao later to see what happened. Let’s leave first."

"Stop."

An Ge hesitated for just a moment, but then steeling herself, she grabbed Xiao Ye and left the suite together.

Jiang Fengmian saw this, snorted derisively at Huo Shaoyan, and taunted, "For someone with your power, why is it that An can look at you as if you’re worth nothing?"

Huo Shaoyan kicked over the coffee table in front of him. "Get out!"

Jiang Fengmian left.

After leaving the suite, An Ge and Xiao Ye went their separate ways downstairs.

As she planned to take the subway to Nan Xiao’s place, her phone rang.

It was Huo Shaoyan calling.

Recalling the scene of her being humiliated in Fu Rou’s hospital room earlier, An Ge outright hung up on Huo Shaoyan.

After that, he didn’t call again.

But just as she opened the door at Yu Garden where Nan Xiao was staying, Qin Lang’s call came through.

"Assistant Qin, what can I do for you?"

Qin Lang said, "Ms. An Ge, you are my ancestor. Thank goodness you answered. The young master asked me to relay a message: if you don’t want you and Mr. Xiao’s company to go bankrupt, you should call him back."

An Ge was silent.

Qin Lang continued, "Ms. An Ge, that Mrs. Wang’s husband is not a simple man. He’s the kind who will stab you in the back. You’re helping Mrs. Wang with her divorce case to split his assets. He wouldn’t dare offend Mr. Xiao but he’ll surely retaliate against you..."

An Ge said, "I know. That’s why I wanted Master Xiao’s legal team to intervene."

Qin Lang replied, "Ms. An Ge, when you’re in trouble, you should come to our young master, not reach out to an outsider..."

An Ge scoffed, "Reach out to your young master? For what? So he can continue to sarcastically call me nothing more than a seductress?"

Qin Lang was silent.

An Ge continued, "Assistant Qin, please tell Huo Shao for me—I don’t want any ambiguity with him. That’s all."

The first time that man kissed her, it was because he was drunk, and she could understand that.

But the second and third times were obviously intentional.

She had already sunk this low; she didn’t want to become so unrecognizable that people would point at her as a homewrecker.

An Ge ended the call with Qin Lang.

After having the call cut off, Qin Lang looked up only to meet the icy eyes of the man.

The phone was on speaker, so Huo Shaoyan heard everything An Ge had said clearly.

Still, Qin Lang braced himself and said to him, "Huo Shao, Ms. An Ge..."

Huo Shaoyan extinguished his burning cigarette and replied, "Let them go bankrupt."

Qin Lang fell silent.

When An Ge received the call from Xiao Ye, it was an hour later.

Xiao Ye yelled over the phone, "What the hell did you do to piss off Huo Shaoyan?"

An Ge’s heart pounded, "What about him?"

Xiao Ye was so furious he could explode, "What about him? He’s going against me. Our studio is in their building, and now they want to terminate the lease and won’t rent to us anymore. Besides, he also said that in the future, if I partner with you in any venture, he’ll make me go bankrupt. An Ge, do you know how much risk I took to work on this project with you? I not only sold my car and internet café but also made it clear to my family that even if I lost everything, I wouldn’t ask for a dime. Are you trying to get me disowned right now?"

This was the helplessness felt when you’re at the bottom of the food chain.

No matter how unwilling you were, you had to lower your proud head and compromise with reality to survive.

When An Ge found Huo Shaoyan, it was another hour later.

By then, it was already the middle of the night.

Outside, heavy rain poured. She held a black umbrella, but half her body was still drenched from the wind.

This was at [Fengqiao Villa, Huo Shaoyan’s residence].

She was refused entry by the man.

The rain in late autumn already carried the biting cold of early winter, and her body, soaked by the rain, shivered from the chill.

An Ge wasn’t willing to leave just like that.

She continued pounding on the iron gate, the palm of her hand turning red under the faint, indistinct light.

She had been knocking for almost ten minutes.

Finally, from the end of the rain-shrouded road, a tall, imposing man walked toward her.

Holding an umbrella, it obscured his features. He seemed to meld into the rainy night, advancing toward her with a chilling presence.
