Chapter 132: Chapter 132 Preference~

"Of course there’s a difference. As I see it, I not only won’t marry her, I probably won’t even acknowledge her child, got it?"

An Ge curled her lips, "Oh? You’re more heartless than I thought, not even recognizing your own flesh and blood."

Huo Shaoyan: "..."

Could this woman be any more foolish? Is this really the main point? The real issue was that he didn’t want to marry a woman he didn’t desire.

In fact, he held a certain fondness for the woman before him, even a desire to claim her for himself.

An Ge quickly opened the door and got out of the car.

Under the streetlight, her long black hair fluttered wildly in the wind, chilling her to the bone within seconds.

Huo Shaoyan opened his door and stepped out, pausing beside her for a few seconds. He was about to drape his black coat over her shoulders when An Ge looked at him and said,

"Young Master Huo, it’s inappropriate for us to engage in these ambiguous actions."

Huo Shaoyan: "..."

Holding an urn, An Ge walked towards the brightly lit [An Residence] ahead of him.

Huo Shaoyan gritted his teeth in anger.

This ungrateful woman!

Irritated, he lit a cigarette and made a call.

He called An Baoying.

An Baoying was so excited upon receiving the call that she nearly jumped off the sofa.

Hurriedly, she said to Bai Meilan, who was walking out of the kitchen,

"Mom, mom, Young Master Huo finally called me. Do you think he’s forgiven me?"

Bai Meilan brought over a plate of fruit and confidently said,

"I told you, not for anything else but for the ’twins’ in your belly, he’ll eventually forgive you. Otherwise, the negative news about you would’ve spread all over the internet by now. But there’s not a hint of it online, nor any bad rumors within the circle. So relax, the child is our biggest bargaining chip."

An Baoying laughed with glee, saying,

"Mom, you’re wrong, An Ge’s child is the real ace we have. With the huge lie we’ve spun, An Ge’s children are untouchable."

Bai Meilan said,

"Naturally. Let’s just let her live a few more months for now."

After saying this, Bai Meilan reminded An Baoying, "Hurry and answer Young Master Huo’s call, don’t keep him waiting."

Immediately after Bai Meilan finished speaking, An Baoying took Huo Shaoyan’s call.

She spoke hesitantly, ingratiatingly, "Young Master Huo, you’ve finally forgiven me?"

On the other end of the line, Huo Shaoyan smoked heavily, his phoenix eyes looking into the unknown distance, silent.

Unable to discern his intentions, An Baoying could only continue speaking,

"Young Master Huo, I admit it was my family who had An Ge go to jail for me, but there were reasons for it."

Huo Shaoyan’s voice, raw and hoarse from the smoke, was particularly grim and deep, "Really?"

An Baoying recited a pre-prepared explanation,

"I was misdiagnosed with breast cancer, and the doctor said I would die without aggressive treatment... so my mom and the others thought of having An Ge go to jail for me to buy time for my treatment. I was strongly opposed to it from the start..."

Huo Shaoyan didn’t want to hear her excuses.

He stubbed out the red-hot cigarette butt and walked toward the lit [An Residence], interrupting her coldly, "That’s irrelevant."

The words An Baoying was about to say got stuck in her throat.

Her eyes widened with a slight tremble, her voice shaky, "I... I don’t quite understand what you mean."

"If not for your good fortune, having twins in one birth, your entire family would have been driven out of Jingcheng by me with no chance of rising again."

An Baoying: "..."

The man continued,

"There’s one thing I’ve never been sure of, was it really you in the cellar that night? If you tell me the truth now, I can let bygones be bygones for your entire family’s actions. But if I find out you’ve deceived me into thinking it was all an elaborate scheme to manipulate me, I’ll make sure there’s no place for you in this world. Understand?"

An Baoying turned pale with fear, her body drenched in cold sweat.

Fortunately, she responded quickly, saying firmly,

"If you really don’t trust me, then from today on, I, An Baoying, will sever all ties with you and the Huo Family. Neither I nor my children will have anything to do with you. Is that acceptable?"

The man said coldly, "Whether it’s acceptable or not isn’t for you to decide. Once you reach the second trimester and we perform an amniocentesis for a DNA paternity test, the truth will determine the outcome."

After saying this, the man hung up on An Baoying.

An Baoying shook in fear.

She had him on speakerphone, so Bai Meilan sitting on the sofa and An Zhiguo coming downstairs from the study both heard it.

An Zhiguo strode over and slapped Bai Meilan, shouting angrily,

"It’s all because of your foolish idea, and now the whole family is about to be buried with this mess."

Bai Meilan’s cheek swelled instantly, her eyes red with anger as she glared at An Zhiguo, saying,

"An Zhiguo, wasn’t I doing it for you? All you think about is climbing up, but do you even know your own skills? I tell you, if not for me and the Bai Family, do you think you’d have the status and dignity you have today? I almost broke ties with my family to marry you, my parents and siblings never respected you, I just wanted you to succeed so you’d have confidence in front of my family!"

An Zhiguo scoffed:

"But you shouldn’t have spun such a monumental lie. You’ve already made Baoying fake a pregnancy to deceive the Huo Family, and now you even make her pretend to be carrying twins! Are you insane?"

Bai Meilan laughed bitterly,

"An Zhiguo, I warn you, we’re all in this together now. It’s too late for you to hide."

Just as the two were about to get into a fight again, An Baoying screamed angrily at them,

"Enough! Instead of fighting, why don’t you think about our next move?"

Just then, the butler rushed in and said,

"Sir, madam... Ms. An Ge is here with her mother’s urn. She’s outside now, shall we let her in?"

An Baoying nearly shouted, "Of course, let her in," immediately after the butler finished speaking.

If it weren’t for that bitch An Ge ruining her engagement, she would have already become Huo Shaoyan’s woman.

It was all because of that bitch that everything was ruined.

Bai Meilan knew An Baoying hated An Ge to the core, but this was not the time to settle scores with her.

Therefore, after An Baoying’s words, she said,

"Baoying, at this critical moment, we need to keep our composure. Don’t go head-to-head with that little wench, An Ge."

The calmer An Zhiguo nodded in agreement,

"That wretched girl is like a mad dog now, biting anyone she sees. Be careful with your words to avoid further provocation."

Two minutes later, An Ge appeared in the An family villa’s foyer, holding the urn.

Dressed entirely in black, with a white mourning band tied on her forehead and a white daisy pinned to her black coat, she had lost a lot of weight in a few days, yet her beautifully delicate face was even more captivating.

An Baoying cast a fiery glance at her and suppressed all her anger, saying, "You dare to come..."

An Ge cut her off, "Young Master Huo personally accompanied me here," implying that none of them could bully her.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, An Baoying and her family became visibly uneasy.

An Baoying’s eyes widened incredulously, "What did you say?"

An Ge didn’t look at her, but spoke to the visibly shocked Bai Meilan and An Zhiguo,

"You owe my mother an apology. Are you going to kneel and knock your heads three times now, or wait until Young Master Huo comes in to do it?"

An Zhiguo was furious, "You ungrateful brat, how dare you threaten me. I’ll beat you to death, you scoundrel..."

"President An, quite the imposing style, I dare anyone to lay a finger on her!"

Huo Shaoyan’s appearance froze everyone but An Ge.
