Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Holding Tightly

Bai Meilan was instantly rendered incredibly awkward by Young Master Huo’s words.

At this moment, An Ge, who had completely calmed down, was amused by Bai Meilan’s words out of anger. She bit her back teeth and directly ignored the presence of Young Master Huo, saying to Bai Meilan, "Is that so?"

As she spoke, she projected a divorce certificate of An Zhiguo and her mother, Wen Ning, onto the screen at the center of the stage. She said, "Bai Meilan, the date on the divorce certificate doesn’t lie. The truth is, you are the ones who are indecent..."

"Enough!" said an agitated An Baoying, almost fuming to the point of fainting. She accused, "You use a photoshopped divorce certificate to shame my dad and mom. What malicious intentions you harbor, even if others don’t know, am I not clear?"

An Ge looked at her coldly, mocking, "Then why don’t you tell me, what exactly are my malicious intentions?"

An Baoying forced herself to calm down and sarcastically said to An Ge, "You’re just jealous of me. Both unwed and pregnant, you’re jealous that I’m carrying Young Master Huo’s child while you are carrying the wild seed of an unknown man. Your jealousy turned into hatred, and you want to ruin my engagement with Young Master Huo..."

As she said this, An Baoying, full of emotion, began to cry, heartbroken, questioning An Ge, "An Ge, we are sisters, of the same blood, wasn’t I good to you? You were supposed to be in prison for three years, but I spent money to hire a lawyer so you’d only serve one year. Why do you treat me like this?"

"And ever since your mother, Aunt Wen, became sick, how much money have I spent on her? Have you forgotten all about it?"

"Why? Just because you are unhappy, you want me to be unhappy too?"

When An Baoying said these words with a trembling voice, it made all the guests present think An Ge was being ungrateful. Someone stepped forward to support An Baoying, saying, "Baoying, as the saying goes, ’A fight over a grain of rice eventually breeds hatred,’ you are just too kind-hearted."

"Indeed, a good horse is always ridden, and a good person is always bullied. This girl harbors such malice, she even makes such a scene at your engagement party, and you’re still treating her so well. You are too kind."

"Yes, Baoying, if I were you, I’d call security to throw her out."

As they spoke, someone turned their gaze to Young Master Huo, saying, "Young Master Huo, it’s clear this woman has ill intentions, you should ask the bodyguards to throw her out..."

"Yeah, Young Master Huo, quickly throw her out, this is outrageous."

Amidst the discussions, Fu Rou, supported by Shen Hongxiu, walked up to Young Master Huo and spoke angrily, "Huo Shaoyan, how long will you indulge her? Aren’t you concerned that your future in-laws will be embarrassed? Even if you don’t care about their reputation, you should consider Baoying’s."

Young Master Huo, who had been keeping his gaze fixed on An Ge, finally spoke at this moment. However, his words were directed at An Ge, not Fu Rou and the others. He came to stand in front of An Ge, looking down at her upturned, smiling face. Although she was smiling, there was a deep irony in her eyes.

Young Master Huo’s throat bobbed, and only after a while did he hoarsely say, "I didn’t know about your mother’s death. Last night, I clearly asked Xiao Chaofeng to call Jiang Feng..."

An Ge interrupted him, "Young Master Huo, that doesn’t matter anymore. My mom is now just a handful of ashes; I have no more mother."

Saying this, she smiled, "I really envy you, you still have a mother."

After saying this, her gaze fell on Fu Rou, who was so angry she was nearly fainting. "Lady Fu, no need to force me out. I’ll leave when I’ve finished what I need to do."

Fu Rou trembled with anger, "What do you want to do?"

An Ge replied, "I don’t want to do anything, but to make the truth public, to get some justice for my mom. As a daughter, I couldn’t fulfill my filial duties while she was alive, but now that she’s gone, I need to do something for her."

With these words, An Ge turned her gaze to the anxious and uneasy An Baoying and her family. At this point, she took out a recorder pen she had in her hand, holding it up in the air. To the astonishment of An Baoying and her family, she spoke to everyone, "A year ago, An Baoying drove while drunk and crippled a little girl. They threatened my mother’s life to make me take the fall for her. Here, I have recordings of the threats they made to me at that time."

At this, An Baoying, Bai Meilan, and An Zhiguo were nearly frightened to death. But An Ge gave them no chance to catch their breath. Her words were directed not just at the crowd but also at Fu Rou and Young Master Huo, "Lady Fu, when you fell into the lake at the Huo Mansion, it wasn’t me who did it. It was An Baoying who tampered with the wheelchair to frame me. The recordings on this pen also document that."

Just as An Ge was about to press the recorder pen, Bai Meilan rushed up to her. Gnashing her teeth, she said, "An Ge, you are truly insane, wanting to frame Baoying with just a broken recorder pen? With AI so advanced now, making a fake recording is as easy as editing a photo. Don’t go too far!"

After speaking, she leaned in to An Ge’s ear and whispered threateningly, "Don’t you want to see your dim-witted uncle again?"

Wen Ning indeed had a brother, but in An Ge’s memory, he had disappeared many years ago. According to what Wen Ning told her while lucid, he should already be dead. However, Bai Meilan claimed he was still alive. An Ge’s resolve wavered slightly, but she could no longer be bothered with all that. She wanted them to fall into disgrace and wanted revenge for her mother.

With that thought, An Ge spoke again, "Bai Meilan, stop threatening me. I still have those hot photos of An Baoying and her flings..."

Bai Meilan grew agitated, hurriedly pulling up a picture on her phone and shoving it into An Ge’s face, lowering her voice to threaten, "Open your eyes and have a good look..."

An Ge’s pupils constricted violently, but Bai Meilan had already taken her phone back, persuasively saying, "An Ge, I understand your mother’s death hit you hard, maybe we haven’t cared for you well enough. We can discuss any grievances you have with us, but tonight is your sister’s important day. Could we stop this?"

An Ge hesitated once more. As she wanted to say something else, An Zhiguo, at this moment, took away the urn containing her mother’s ashes from the podium. An Ge rushed madly toward his direction, shouting angrily, "Do not touch my mom! I don’t allow you to touch my mom... you..."

When emotions reach their peak, it’s hard to bear, especially for An Ge, who had just been drawn two hundred milliliters of blood. Her vision blackened, and she slumped forward.

Before completely losing consciousness, she activated the recorder pen. Voices of An Baoying, Bai Meilan, and An Zhiguo threatening An Ge to take the fall for An Baoying could be heard.

"An Ge, as long as you go to jail for your sister, we’ll definitely take care of your mom."

"Otherwise, we’ll stop paying your mom’s medical bills, and she’ll just have to wait for death."

"Sister, I’ve already called in favors—it’s just a year in jail, you’ll be out soon enough."

"Yes, An Ge, sacrificing a year of your freedom for your mom’s wellbeing, why not?"

"..."

At that moment, the recording stopped abruptly as Bai Meilan stomped on the device, breaking it.

Young Master Huo, who had caught the collapsing An Ge in time, cradled her in his arms. He held her tightly, as if afraid that if he loosened his grip, she would shatter and never be whole again.

Young Master Huo’s expression was bleak, beyond gloomy. His Phoenix Eyes were as sharp as ice. His anger was fierce and raging, but besides that, there was also a deep sense of guilt and pity for the woman in his arms. His heart ached a bit.

Young Master Huo thought this.
