Chapter 124: Chapter 124 Kiss Marks~

He stood there silently and vast, his cold aura intimidating anyone who dared approach him.

At this moment, in the parking lot downstairs.

Every time Wen Qing thought about how Young Master Huo and Mrs. Lu from Imperial City had intimidated her for information about that dead woman, she felt extremely reluctant to discuss it.

Thus, she replied to An Ge impatiently, "Isn’t she just a dead woman? Why are all of you looking for her? I’ve already said, I have no idea about her background. The last time I saw her, her body was already stiff. Your mother couldn’t dress her stiff corpse for the funeral alone. You were only ten then, mourning for her as if you were her biological daughter. Later, after she was cremated to ashes, you went insane, hiding in your room and refusing to meet anyone. After that, I didn’t see you for three to four years, not until you were better, and your mother brought you to [Jingcheng] seeking your unfaithful father."

Once Wen Qing finished speaking, An Ge asked, "Then where was my master buried?"

Wen Qing shook her head, "I really don’t know. I suspect your mother didn’t let her rest in peace. Maybe she hid her ashes, or perhaps scattered them to the wind. Anyway, your mother has a peculiar temper, so I’m really not sure."

Just as they were speaking, Jiang Qingyi arrived.

Half an hour ago, she received a tip-off call from An Baoying, saying An Ge was seducing her husband at Huangchao.

Jiang Qingyi came specifically to catch them in the act.

When a woman loves a man too much, she becomes insane.

Like now, Jiang Qingyi, without asking for reasons, rushed up to An Ge standing beside Tang Jiuze.

Her speed surprised everyone.

That slap, An Ge took it head-on.

Yet, even so, Jiang Qingyi wasn’t ready to stop.

In the end, Tang Jiuze pulled her to the front, coldly saying to her, "Have you gone crazy enough yet?"

Jiang Qingyi, her face covered with tears, looked at him, "Not yet, Tang Jiuze, are you trying to drive me to death?"

Tang Jiuze remained expressionless, "Jiang Qingyi, use your brains. Do you think your death would threaten anyone? Me? The material compensation you deserve, you won’t lose a cent. Hurry and sign the divorce papers."

Jiang Qingyi’s eyes widened at his words.

Taking a deep breath, she quickly said, "I’m sorry, Ah Ze, it’s my fault...I shouldn’t have lost my temper like that. We’re having a baby now. Let’s not get a divorce, okay? I’m begging you..."

Jiang Qingyi’s humility made even An Ge unable to resent her for the slap.

Deep inside, she even felt...sympathy for Jiang Qingyi.

However, Tang Jiuze’s words shocked everyone.

Tang Jiuze said, "Our baby? Are you sure? Jiang Qingyi, have I touched you lately? I’d know..."

Jiang Qingyi’s tears fell, looking at him incredulously, "Ah Ze, what nonsense are you spouting..."

An Ge didn’t hear what else they said after that.

Because Sister Li, who was caring for her mother in the hospital, gave her a call:

"Ms. An Ge, please hurry back, Doctor Zhou said your mother’s condition suddenly worsened, and he just went to the emergency room to help..."

Sister Li, somewhat incoherent, continued, "Oh, and another thing, Doctor Zhou said, the reason your mother’s condition suddenly deteriorated might be due to a suspected brainstem tumor compression. He urged you to find Doctor Jiang at all costs; if he could perform the surgery, there might be a ray of hope..."

An Ge’s voice shook, "Doctor Jiang? Jiang Fengmian?"

"Uh, yes, the Doctor Jiang from [Jingcheng Hospital]’s neurosurgery."

After finishing the call with Sister Li, An Ge didn’t dare delay for a moment.

But she didn’t have Jiang Fengmian’s phone number. Though she got it from Xiao Ye, his phone was turned off.

Her fingers trembled as she called Xiao Chaofeng, "Master Xiao, can you...can you reach Young Master Jiang Fengmian?"

Xiao Chaofeng had a falling out with Nan Xiao during the day, so his mood was terrible. However, he was at Young Master Huo’s birthday banquet, drowning his sorrows with quite a bit of alcohol.

He said rudely, "What? Planning to hook up with all the rich boys in our [Jingcheng] circle? Why are you looking for him?"

An Ge responded, "My mom suddenly fell critically ill, only Young Master Jiang can save her life..."

Xiao Chaofeng cruelly remarked, "Then your mom might as well wait to die. Today marks Young Master Jiang’s mother’s death anniversary; no one, except Young Master Huo, can reach him today."

He paused, "Though, I heard you were being all lovey-dovey with Tang Jiuze, and Young Master Huo caught you. He’s furious now, so even if you beg him, it’d be useless."

An Ge didn’t care about the details, "Even if it means kneeling, I’m willing to try."

Five minutes later, An Ge forced her way into Huangchao Night Club.

She saw a handsome man lazily leaning against the sofa, with An Baoying sitting beside him.

He was probably quite drunk, his gaze hazy with the effects of alcohol as he ate the fruits An Baoying fed him.

"Young Master Huo, my mom is critically ill, only Young Master Jiang can save her life. Can you help me?"

Her voice seemed to come from far away, slowly reaching his ears.

Young Master Huo raised his eyes to glance at the woman standing heavily in the shadows. Her face was waxy pale, yet the ambiguous marks on her neck were vivid.

Oh, he remembered, those marks were from Tang Jiuze’s bites.

The anger that had barely subsided surged up once more.

He kicked the coffee table in front of him, and the bottles scattered everywhere. Some collided and shattered instantly.

The glass shards, under the light, glistened with sharp menace.

For a few seconds, his gaze lingered on those glass fragments. In a seemingly amused tone, he said, "Who are you to me that I should help you..."

An Ge was desperate, "What do I have to do for you to be willing to help?"

"Make me happy."

He said.

An Ge bit her lip, "What do I have to do to please your Highness?"

The surrounding onlookers didn’t dare breathe loudly. After all, during the Xiao Family’s birthday banquet, this man had stood up for An Ge.

Rumor had it that after the banquet, both Mr. Xu and Wu Manman, who had humiliated An Ge, had been sent abroad overnight by their elders out of fear of Young Master Huo’s retaliation.

At that moment, no one was clear about what was happening, so they could only watch quietly.

No one dared to speak, including An Baoying, who was delighted inwardly.

Only Xiao Chaofeng.

Not in a good mood, he wanted a spectacle.

He interrupted, saying, "He likes blood. Especially the blood of beautiful women."

Here, he intentionally paused, looking at Young Master Huo, and continued speaking to An Ge, "Why don’t you do a little performance for him? Smashing a big stone on your chest won’t work, as it won’t draw blood and might harm you, the pregnant woman. You should...perform walking barefoot on glass shards for him. It’s not only entertaining but also bloody, surely his Highness would be pleased."

After speaking, he kicked Young Master Huo’s shin and lazily added, "Why don’t you say something, huh."

Young Master Huo finally looked up at the pale An Ge, saying, "You have committed a great taboo tonight. You’re looking for death, do you know that?"
