Chapter 28: Chapter 28: She Cries, He’s Annoyed~

Bai Meilan quickly gathered her wits and snatched the phone from his hand. After taking a deep breath, she sneered at An Ge, "You little brat, you still have the nerve to ask? Let me ask you, on the night of the Huo Family’s birthday banquet, did you go to the cellar? It’s bad enough that you hooked up with that drug lord and got pregnant with his bastard, but you even left evidence of having been there. Do you even know what Young Master Huo did before inheriting the Huo Family’s business? It’s said he’s the chief of some global anti-drug group, specializing in tackling drug cases that no government can crack. The drug lord who died in the Huo Family’s cellar was caught by Young Master Huo. Young Master Huo has recently been going after the remnants of that drug lord. If it weren’t for your elder sister being afraid you’d drag the whole family down with you, do you think she’d take the fall for you? Baoying gambled on Young Master Huo’s feelings for her and took the risk to confess to it. In short, you damn brat, if you don’t want to die without a grave to be buried in, you better watch your mouth from now on."

An Ge was startled by these words. She felt Bai Meilan didn’t seem to be lying, but it didn’t hold up to scrutiny. After all, Bai Meilan and her daughter dreamed of killing her. Such a good opportunity, there’s no reason they wouldn’t send her out and claim she was in cahoots with the drug lord, that she was one of the drug lord’s remnants. Yet not only did they not do that, they helped her instead? That was very strange.

Thinking of this, An Ge asked coldly, "Would you be so kind? Don’t you hate me to the core and want me to rot in prison?"

Bai Meilan was momentarily speechless but quickly collected her thoughts and replied logically, "You little brat, do you think we really want to help you? Your elder sister is pregnant with Young Master Huo’s child, and she’s destined to be the lady of the Huo Family’s high society. If word gets out that she has a drug-dealing sister, do you think she’d look good? Besides, what if Young Master Huo, without distinguishing right from wrong, has me and your dad arrested? What are we supposed to do then? Also, aren’t you now protected by Mrs. Huo? If we offend Mrs. Huo over this, do you think she will show your sister any favor?"

After saying this, Bai Meilan hung up on An Ge.

An Ge squinted her eyes, gradually sinking into deep thought. Although the cellar incident seemed bizarre, she thought it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble and put it off; otherwise, it might invite disaster.

Her stomach growled just then, hungry as ever. She hadn’t eaten dinner. Ever since learning she was pregnant, she always felt insatiably hungry. Hmm, she thought she still had some bread left in her bag. She could eat it when she got to the hospital, instead of leaving crumbs on the car that might get her scolded.

Half an hour later, the car arrived at Jingcheng Hospital. [Jingcheng Hospital] At this time, An Baoying was still pretending to be unconscious.

Huo Shaoyan carried her out of the car, as the hospital staff arrived with a stretcher. Just as he was placing An Baoying onto the stretcher and preparing to leave with them, he glanced inadvertently and saw An Ge munching on bread like a hamster, crumbs all over her mouth. His expression instantly turned sour, and he changed his pace, walking toward her.

Before long, he snatched the half-eaten bread from An Ge’s astonished face and tossed it into a nearby trash can.

An Ge widened her eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Young Master Huo, may I ask how my eating a piece of bread bothers you?"

Huo Shaoyan, seeing her face full of crumbs, averted his eyes with disgust and said coldly, "Your sister is lying there unconscious, and you still have the appetite to eat? When you fainted yesterday, your sister was so worried about you. In my opinion, you’re just an ungrateful ingrate!"

Feeling both stung and pained by his unkind and sarcastic reprimand, An Ge’s eyes reddened, but she remained silent. Her almost-crying expression appeared exceptionally aggrieved.

Her demeanor irked Huo Shaoyan. He furrowed his brows and said, "Are you really going to cry because I won’t let you eat bread? Do you really think of yourself as some Huo Family heiress? Listen up, when Mrs. Huo isn’t protecting you, you’re nothing but a maid at my mercy. Don’t expect me to spoil you!"
