Chapter 280: Chapter 280: Deep Love

An Ge let out an "oh," and said, "I really just have a couple of troubled friendships with Huo Qingzhou and Lu Huai’an, it’s not what you think..."

"I don’t care whether they’re troubled friendships or lifelong ones, just don’t let me see you meeting them behind my back again."

An Ge frowned slightly and said, "And what about you? How do you plan to deal with An Muxin? She’s completely devoted to you, and you do care for her quite a bit. Plus, Young Master Huo’s illness needs her blood to alleviate... So, how do you intend to manage your relationship with her?"

Huo Shaoyan quickly answered An Ge, "If I remarry you, I’ll be completely faithful to you both physically and emotionally."

"Faithful?" An Ge was somewhat dazed. She never thought a man would ever make such a promise to her.

Huo Shaoyan spoke with certainty, "Yes. If I remarry you, I’ll be totally loyal to you." He paused for a moment, "I can accept you not loving me temporarily and even for a long time, but I can’t accept physical betrayal. Of course, emotional infidelity is also forbidden. Unless I feel our relationship is genuinely beyond repair, in that case, I’ll set you free, and henceforth, our lives won’t interfere with each other."

An Ge pursed her lips, then told him, "Alright. Since you’ve shown your attitude toward remarrying, I will also give my all. I hope this beginning can have a good ending. Even if we can’t end up together, we should at least part on good terms."

Huo Shaoyan’s thin lips hinted at a smile as he gently lifted her fair chin with his finger, "Don’t lie to me again."

An Ge pressed her lips briefly, then changed the subject, "Nanny Lin called me, and Huanhuan is awake. She’s clamoring to see me, so let’s go to the hospital."

Huo Shaoyan nodded, "Alright."

...

After Huo Shaoyan and An Ge drove away from the East Garden of the Huo Mansion, An Baoying called An Muxin. [Huo Mansion, East Garden]

On the phone, she told An Muxin, "You know, that bitch An Ge has reconciled with Huo Shaoyan. I overheard their conversation at Mrs. Huo’s West Garden. Huo Shaoyan said he wants to remarry An Ge, and surprisingly, she didn’t refuse. Moreover, they just left the Huo Mansion together. Huo Shaoyan is even injured yet personally took her away, which shows they are most likely reconciled. So, what now?" [Huo Mansion, West Garden]

Upon hearing this, An Muxin, despite her anger and hatred, remained calmer than An Baoying. After hearing An Baoying finish speaking, she said, "What’s the rush? Let them enjoy a few happy days." She paused and added meaningfully, "People are often such lowly creatures. Let them be inseparable and then part because of sudden changes. That’s when it truly hurts."

An Baoying felt reassured by An Muxin’s confidence. She asked, "So, in your opinion, what should we do next?"

An Muxin pondered briefly and said, "Of course, it’s borrowing a knife to kill."

An Baoying asked, "What do you mean?"

An Muxin sneered, "Your biological father Lee Dahai dreams of acknowledging you, right? Your mother Bai Meilan has been unconscious in the hospital. Lee Dahai loves her deeply. If you, as her daughter, fan the flames in his presence, would he not act for us?"

After ending the call with An Muxin, An Baoying, after careful consideration, dialed Lee Dahai.

At this moment, Lee Dahai was in a hospital ward, wiping the body of Bai Meilan, who was in a vegetative state. He was a man with dark skin, robust, and muscular limbs. Though his features were not as handsome as An Zhiguo’s, he wasn’t ugly either, save for an eyebrow-hidden crescent-shaped scar that made him look somewhat fierce.

He was very excited to receive the call from An Baoying. "Baoying, you finally decided to talk to me?"

An Baoying, once a superstar shining brightly, now found herself in such a sad and painful predicament. Reflecting on how she was not An Zhiguo’s daughter but rather an illegitimate daughter born from Bai Meilan’s dalliance with a servant of the Bai Family, no matter how mad or foolish she pretended to be, she still heard maids gossip about her disreputable background at the Huo family. Deep down, An Baoying was reluctant to acknowledge Lee Dahai, the servant by birth, as her father.

Nonetheless, times had changed. An Baoying’s greatest wish was to seek revenge on An Ge. She was willing to recognize Lee Dahai as her father as long as it meant An Ge would pay a heavy price.

Thinking of this, An Baoying said to Lee Dahai over the phone, "Though I don’t want to believe it, the fact remains that you are my biological father. An Ge, that bitch, caused such misery for me and my mom. Are you, as a father, planning to turn a blind eye forever and not seek revenge for me and mom?"

Lee Dahai was somewhat agitated and said, "Baoying, you are my daughter, and I love you deeply, as I do your mother. How could I remain indifferent while you’re bullied? I just haven’t found the right opportunity yet..."

Eager to show his determination, Lee Dahai spoke incoherently, "Don’t worry, as soon as I find a suitable opportunity, I will definitely take action for you and your mom... Trust me, even if it costs my life, I will ensure justice for you two."

An Baoying was very satisfied with Lee Dahai’s attitude. She chuckled and said, "Then let’s find some time to meet."

Lee Dahai was eager for this, "Shall I come to you, or do you want to come to me?"

After some thought, An Baoying said, "I’m due for a prenatal checkup at the hospital soon. Let’s meet there."

She paused and said, "Oh, recently keep an eye on An Ge’s daughter. Her name is Huo Chenghuan, and she’s also hospitalized. See if you can find an opportunity to quietly get rid of that child."

Lee Dahai hesitated briefly and replied, "...Okay."

After ending the call with An Baoying, Lee Dahai left Bai Meilan’s ward and began secretly gathering information about Huo Chenghuan. Within about half an hour, he figured out the location of her hospital room. However, two bodyguards in black stood guard at the door, so sneaking in was nearly impossible unless Huo Chenghuan came out herself.

Observing from the shadows, Lee Dahai saw Huo Shaoyan and An Ge approaching, hand in hand, from the end of the hallway. Frightened of being discovered, he swiftly slipped away through a stairwell.

In his haste and panic, Lee Dahai accidentally knocked over a potted plant over one meter tall, causing a bit of a commotion. An Ge, holding Huo Shaoyan’s hand, instinctively looked toward the noise, catching a glimpse of a hurriedly departing figure.

The person seemed to be slightly uneven-legged, walking with a limp. An Ge’s brows furrowed with concern. Noticing her change, Huo Shaoyan softly asked, "What’s wrong?"

An Ge replied, "...It’s nothing."

They soon entered the hospital room. By the time they arrived, Nan Xiao had already come to visit Huo Chenghuan. [hospital]

Nan Xiao was feeding Huo Chenghuan fruit. The little one was quite spirited and very fond of being with Nan Xiao, calling her "auntie" repeatedly.

Nan Xiao, unable to have children, cherished Huo Chenghuan dearly. She held her on her lap, squeezing her chubby little cheeks and said with a smile, "How about I become your godmother?"

Huo Chenghuan’s eyes twinkled as she looked at her and replied sweetly, "Sure, but you can only be Huanhuan’s godmother and not recognize any other kids as godchildren. Huanhuan must be the only one."

Nan Xiao couldn’t help but laugh, kissing her cheek, "You cheeky little one."

"Huanhuan," An Ge’s voice cut through to their ears. [hospital]

Initially ready to rush over, Huo Chenghuan then saw Huo Shaoyan holding An Ge’s hand, and her little face fell with displeasure. She pouted, unhappily saying, "Mommy, why are you with Huo Dazha? And why are you holding hands? He allowed that bad woman An Muxin to bully us. How can you hold his hand? Have you forgotten how indifferent he was to us?"

Huo Chenghuan’s words left An Ge feeling both heartbroken and embarrassed. Huo Shaoyan also felt unsettled. He suddenly realized how much the airport incident had indeed hurt Huo Chenghuan. As An Ge had said, the incident had severely impacted Huo Chenghuan, causing her condition to worsen and spit blood.

Huo Shaoyan stepped forward to express his apology to Huo Chenghuan, "I’m sorry, yesterday’s incident was my fault..."

Huo Chenghuan, with eyes reddened, replied, "Don’t bother apologizing. We can’t afford it. I’m telling you, Huo Dazha, don’t think you can deceive my mommy just because she’s kind and beautiful. I’m here, and I won’t ever agree to you two being together."

She paused and added emphatically, "Moreover, I will never forgive you."

Huo Shaoyan didn’t quite appreciate her words. He furrowed his brow and stated, "But your mommy has agreed to remarry me, and we will be living together from now on. So, whether or not you agree or forgive me doesn’t matter."

Huo Chenghuan’s eyes widened in disbelief, "That’s impossible. My mommy wouldn’t agree to remarry you. You must have threatened her, definitely!"

Huo Chenghuan refused to accept this truth. Daddy hurt her so much, her heart was utterly disappointed, and she no longer yearned for his fatherly love. Hence, Huo Chenghuan was utterly unwilling to have any association with Huo Shaoyan.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at An Ge and tearfully asked, "Mommy, is what this bad guy says true? Are you really going to remarry this bad guy?"

An Ge felt an uncomfortable tightening in her chest. Her heart was filled with mixed emotions and a profound sense of bitterness.

She was at a loss for how to explain things to Huo Chenghuan or what she could say to comfort her. Yesterday’s airport incident inflicted a severe psychological injury on Huo Chenghuan, leading to her emotional agitation.

Before, An Ge had even found her secretly downloading and printing out pictures of Huo Shaoyan to hide inside her little treasure box.

Silent, An Ge watched as Huo Chenghuan’s tears began to stream down her cheeks. She choked out, "Mommy, Huanhuan doesn’t want you to remarry Huo Dazha. He is a bad man, only capable of hurting us and you, mommy. So, please, mommy, don’t marry him, okay?"

She cried into a chubby, teary mess. Huo Shaoyan’s brow furrowed even more deeply.
