Chapter 152: Chapter 152 She’s a Good Girl~

At that time, Huo Shaoyan was leaning against the headboard of the bed, pressing his temples to ease the migraine that came with his hangover. Before his mind was fully awake, an arm draped over his waist—a woman’s arm.

Huo Shaoyan’s eyes widened slightly, and as he turned his head, he found himself facing An Baoying’s rosy face. Following her face, his gaze quickly moved downwards, landing on the crisscrossing ambiguous marks all over her body.

Huo Shaoyan’s eyebrows furrowed to the extreme, and his voice suddenly turned cold with anger, "What did you put in my drink?"

An Baoying looked aggrieved, her eyes red as she said, "I didn’t. It was... it was Aunt."

Last night, the An Family had invited them to dinner together, and he was forcibly brought over by Fu Rou. Huo Shaoyan never expected that Fu Rou would go so far as to drug his drink.

Huo Shaoyan’s emotions erupted in an instant, his voice turning cold and deep, "So, you climbed into my bed?"

Tears streamed down An Baoying’s face as she cried, "It was Aunt who told me to help you to bed to rest, but... you were hit hard by the drug, you pulled me and wouldn’t let me go. If I hadn’t been careful myself, I was afraid you would have hurt our child..."

In reality, nothing had happened. The ambiguous marks on her body were all self-inflicted, and in some places, for visual authenticity, she had Bai Meilan help add them, especially around her thighs, where there were particularly many.

In short, the mother and daughter would stop at nothing for the position of Mrs. Huo.

An Baoying lifted the blanket and got out of bed to make Huo Shaoyan believe they had relations last night. She was only wearing a thin gauze, which exuded a charming allure in the morning’s faint light. However, in Huo Shaoyan’s eyes, this sight was so vulgar it made him sick.

He closed his eyes, and after a while, he said coldly, "Put on your clothes."

Seeing that he wasn’t truly furious, An Baoying was delighted and hastily said, "Okay. Well... should I freshen up? You should get up too; Aunt stayed over last night, and she’s probably waiting for us to have breakfast."

Huo Shaoyan ignored her. As An Baoying wrapped herself in a blanket and planned to go to the bathroom, Uncle Fu from Fengqiao Villa called his phone.

Thinking of An Ge at Fengqiao Villa, Huo Shaoyan somehow felt an inexplicable... sense of indebtedness. Of course, this feeling wasn’t strong.

In short, because of this tiny sense of guilt, he immediately answered Uncle Fu’s call and was the first to speak, asking, "How is she?"

"Young Master, come back quickly, Xiao An Ge is burning up and can’t wake up no matter how we try..."

Huo Shaoyan’s voice turned cold, "How did she get a fever all of a sudden? Are you all useless? You can’t even take care of a woman..."

"Young Master, please reprimand us servants when you have time, but I see Xiao An Ge’s condition is very bad. Do you want us to arrange for a doctor to see her, or should we take her to the hospital immediately?"

"Send her to the hospital immediately, I’ll be there soon."

When Huo Shaoyan finished dressing and hurriedly went downstairs, Fu Rou was just about to have breakfast. When she saw him coming down, she immediately smiled and said, "You’re up..."

Before she could finish, Huo Shaoyan interrupted her coldly, "Mother, you have truly disappointed me. This is the last time, do not do something so repulsive to me again."

Fu Rou’s entire chest cavity roared violently, and it wasn’t until Huo Shaoyan’s figure completely disappeared from her sight that she snapped out of it.

...

When Huo Shaoyan arrived at the hospital, An Ge was already awake.

Actually, her high fever was not surprising. In An Ge’s limited memory, she would suffer several terrifying high fevers repeatedly every year. Each time she broke the fever, her body seemed to heal quickly, returning to normal.

When Huo Shaoyan arrived, she was sipping warm water that Sister Li had brought to her lips. Ever since An Ge was grounded, Huo Shaoyan had hired Sister Li, who used to take care of An Ge’s mother, to specifically attend to An Ge’s daily needs.

It was Sister Li who first discovered An Ge’s fever and notified Uncle Fu.

Seeing him, Sister Li stood up quickly to make space for him.

Huo Shaoyan sat down by An Ge’s bedside, looking at her fever-reddened eyes. His tone was emotionless as he asked, "Why did you suddenly get a fever?"

After drinking the water, An Ge leaned back against the pillow, her bright eyes staring at him, and said, "I’ve been grounded for too long and felt too repressed. You didn’t come back last night to enjoy yourself with An Baoying, so I had terrible insomnia and climbed to the rooftop. It was cold at night, and when the wind blew, I accidentally got caught in a chill."

Her voice was gentle, but her words were sharp, the soft knives stabbing into Huo Shaoyan’s heart.

His face darkened, "Talk to me properly, okay?"

An Ge opened a raunchy photo sent by An Baoying last night on her phone and held it up in front of him, her voice still soft, "Is it that my figure isn’t good enough, or my body isn’t soft enough? Or do you men just like wild food, is it very thrilling?"

Huo Shaoyan’s throat bobbed, holding back his temper. He originally wanted to explain a thing or two but felt there was no need.

He said, "I’ve told you before, greed is the original sin. Mrs. Huo, you should control your possessiveness. What we have is a transaction, and it will end with mere physical pleasure, nothing more."

He paused, "So, mind less about my private life."

An Ge nodded and said, "I know. I just wanted to make things clear, hoping you might lift my house arrest out of some minor guilt for me."

As she said this, she lifted her head, her big black-and-white eyes staring unblinkingly at him, "So, President Huo, can you end my punishment? Can my house arrest be lifted?"

She didn’t argue, didn’t cause a scene. She really was quite obedient. But suddenly, Huo Shaoyan became intensely annoyed by her docility.

Her husband spent the night in ecstasy with another woman, yet she remained so unfazed.

So, her insistence on wanting his heart was merely lip service.

Huo Shaoyan felt irritable, undoing two buttons at his collar, "Fine."

An Ge’s gaze fell on a fresh red hickey on his neck, and she averted her eyes, saying, "I didn’t sleep well last night."

The implication being that he should leave her to rest undisturbed.

Huo Shaoyan understood her unstated meaning but didn’t accede to her wishes, "You sleep. I’ll wait until your fever subsides before I leave."

An Ge’s brow furrowed, showing signs of irritation, but she ultimately restrained herself.

She took a deep breath and said, "President Huo, I don’t need your company, nor do you need to stay with me. I’m already quite content with you lifting my house arrest, so go take care of your business."

The frustration within Huo Shaoyan flared to an extreme, "Testing my patience again?"

An Ge couldn’t be bothered to look at him. She closed her eyes and turned to lie on her side, her back to him.

She was truly exhausted, slipping into slumber quickly.

On the other hand, Huo Shaoyan was furious, his frustration about to explode.
