Disheartened, I Fled from the CEO with Our Babies
Chapter 329: Coddle

Chapter 329: Chapter 329: Coddle

An Muxin let out a pained scream, only for her jaw to be firmly gripped by the man.

At first, the man pinched her chin, but quickly shifted to grasping her entire jaw, leaving her unable to close her mouth.

In her eyes flashed a look of panic, tears streaming down her face.

At this moment, she even felt a tinge of despair.

She heard Gu Changfeng pronounce his judgment on her, word by word:

"An Muxin, I’ll warn you only once—don’t provoke An Ge. If I find out—

you dare to harm even a single strand of her hair or harbor malicious intent towards her child, I’ll make sure you die without a burial. Do you believe me?"

Under the oppressive force of Gu Changfeng’s presence, An Muxin desperately wanted to escape his grip, nodding frantically.

Gu Changfeng finally released her.

An Muxin rubbed her sore jaw and mouth corners, curling up into a ball.

Gu Changfeng’s foot also finally left her hand.

An Muxin clutched her hand, which had been stomped to the point of breaking skin, but dared not utter a single sound despite the pain.

Gu Changfeng, taking in every bit of her terror, said coldly:

"Do you really think the child in your belly is mine?"

An Muxin’s pupils widened in shock as she stammered in disbelief:

"If it’s not yours, then whose could it be? From beginning to end, you’ve been the only man I’ve been with..."

Before she could finish her words, Gu Changfeng let out a merciless laugh.

An Muxin glared at him, her hatred so deep she wished she could stab him with a knife.

But she knew all too well how good he was in a fight.

Even if she were holding a knife now, she wouldn’t stand a chance against him.

She bit her lip hard, feeling helpless and terrified as she looked at the man who lit yet another cigarette.

Through the thick haze of smoke, the man sneered at her and declared in a frosty voice:

"Young lady, I’ve never touched you."

An Muxin looked as if she’d seen a ghost, her voice trembling in agitation: "Impossible! Every time I’ve lain in bed with a man, it was clearly you..."

The man curled his lips and made a phone call.

Five minutes later, another man, nearly the same height as him, walked into the hospital room.

The newcomer removed his baseball cap and black mask covering his nose and mouth.

When An Muxin saw the man’s face clearly, she almost fainted from shock.

The man’s face was identical to Gu Changfeng’s.

This... how is this possible?

She could no longer tell who was Gu Changfeng.

Her voice trembled:

"Is... is he your twin brother?"

Gu Changfeng curled his lips but offered no explanation.

Instead, he looked down at An Muxin and said:

"An Muxin, don’t think that with Lee Dahai dead, evidence of your attempt to harm An Ge has vanished.

Let me tell you, even without solid proof, if I want you dead, it’ll only take minutes."

An Muxin finally understood how formidable Gu Changfeng was.

She was so frightened she couldn’t make a sound, staring at Gu Changfeng with terrified, wide peach blossom eyes.

Gu Changfeng continued:

"You claim you want to have this child? Then take good care of it during your pregnancy. If I find out you’ve aborted it, I’ll publicize all the sins you’ve committed in the past."

Finally, An Muxin lost her sanity.

Screaming hysterically, she roared at Gu Changfeng:

"Just who are you? Tell me, what grudge do you have against my An family, why are you treating me this way? Why..."

But the only response she received was the man’s cold, indifferent silhouette.

Gu Changfeng quickly left the hospital with his subordinates.

Downstairs, in the hospital’s parking lot.

The man standing in front of Gu Changfeng removed his prosthetic mask and asked respectfully:

"Mr. Jing, what would you like me to assist you with next?"

Gu Changfeng’s face was sinister as he said: "Keep an eye on An Muxin."

"Understood."

Gu Changfeng got into a car.

Inside, Qin Ming spoke to him:

"Mr. Jing, I’ve already checked on Seventh Young Lady for you. She’s generally in good condition,

not seriously harmed... but Huo Shaoyan, I heard his injuries are severe, even his spleen was removed..."

Gu Changfeng responded with an expressionless "hm," saying:

"If it weren’t for his donation of part of his liver to save Xiaoqi, coupled with his life-risking efforts to protect her this time, I wouldn’t forgive the harm he caused her."

Qin Ming added, "Mr. Jing, I’ve found news on the matter you asked me to investigate in secret."

Gu Changfeng lit a cigarette. "Speak."

Qin Ming said: "Back then, the eldest son of the An family secretly took a baby from the Qin family, but that baby didn’t die at all.

The baby was secretly raised by him, hidden away in the temple on Qingcheng Mountain. That child is now about fourteen or fifteen years old."

Gu Changfeng narrowed his eyes: "The temple on Qingcheng Mountain?"

"Huangjue Temple, to be specific."

Huangjue Temple was in Jingcheng.

Gu Changfa planned to personally visit Huangjue Temple on Qingcheng Mountain.

He instructed Qin Ming: "I’ll head over in the next few days. Keep Xiaoqi protected in secret."

"Understood."

**

After finishing her call with Gu Changfeng, An Ge thought deeply before asking Nanny Lin to put away the supplements.

Gu Changfeng had spent over ten years beside An Muxin, enduring as a bodyguard. Just this fact was enough for An Ge to believe in his most recent words.

An Muxin must have committed numerous heinous acts, and Gu Changfeng undoubtedly knew them well.

Therefore, An Ge trusted that Gu Changfeng had evidence of An Muxin’s harm toward Huo Huaisang.

Moreover, Gu Changfeng’s attitude toward her was clearly kind. At this stage, if she were to reject his goodwill, it would block her path to avenging Huo Huaisang.

Thus, she accepted Gu Changfeng’s generosity.

An Ge recalled the special ointment Gu Changfeng had sent her before this incident.

At the time, she hadn’t paid much attention to the ointment, but now she asked Nanny Lin to fetch it for her.

Once Nanny Lin brought the ointment, An Ge applied it to the wound on her arm from the previous injury.

Sure enough, after application, the wound didn’t hurt at all; instead, it felt cool and soothing.

Coincidentally, Huo Huaisang’s arm wound was aching badly, making it hard for him to eat or sleep.

With this thought, An Ge used the ointment on Huo Huaisang’s wound as well.

Initially, Huo Huaisang’s pained furrowed brows gave him a distressed look, but after applying the ointment, his expression relaxed entirely.

Huo Huaisang voluntarily shared his experience with An Ge: "Mom, my wound doesn’t hurt at all now. What ointment is this? It’s amazing."

An Ge didn’t know the ingredients of the ointment. She said to Huo Huaisang: "An uncle gave it. If you feel better, I’ll ask him to sell us a few more tubes later."

Huo Huaisang nodded and hesitated, then said:

"Mom, why don’t you use this ointment on Dad too? Last night, after you fainted, Dad was seriously injured by that bad person... I even saw blood spurting..."

An Ge replied, "Alright."

She spent some time with Huo Huaisang in his hospital room before taking the ointment to find Huo Shaoyan.

Just as she reached the door of his hospital room, she encountered Fu Rou, who had come to visit Huo Shaoyan.

Although Fu Rou already knew the truth, every time she thought about how Huo Shaoyan’s injury had stemmed from An Ge, it was hard for her to be civil towards her.

Deep down, she thought of An Ge as nothing less than a demoness.

She believed that whenever Huo Shaoyan was entangled with An Ge, disaster was inevitable.

Thus, Fu Rou couldn’t help but speak harshly the moment she saw An Ge, saying:

"Why aren’t you resting in your own room? What are you doing here? Haven’t you caused enough suffering for my son?"

Her words had barely landed when An Ge retorted coldly:

"I caused trouble? Huo Huaisang’s incident happened under your watch. If it weren’t for your carelessness, how could he have been kidnapped by Lee Dahai?"

Fu Rou was immediately silenced.

An Ge continued:

"Thankfully, Huo Huaisang didn’t suffer serious harm. Otherwise, whether you’re Huo Shaoyan’s mother or mine, I wouldn’t forgive you so easily."

Fu Rou’s rage flared: "You—"

An Ge cut her off coldly once more:

"Huo Shaoyan doesn’t want to see you. Leave."

Fu Rou was incredulous.

She could hardly believe that a mother now needed permission from another woman to see her severely injured son.

She shouted furiously, "An Ge, don’t push it! Huo Shaoyan is my son! As his mother, I have every right to visit him when he’s gravely injured!"

She turned to the guards at the door, ordering, "Escort her out."

The guards hesitated: "Madam..."

An Ge interrupted the guards:

"If you address me as Madam, it means your master is Huo Shaoyan. And since he is my husband, you must obey me."

The guards immediately responded, "Yes, Madam."

Under such circumstances, Fu Rou was escorted out of the room.

She was so angry she almost fainted in the hospital lobby downstairs.

There, she accidentally ran into An Jifeng, who had arrived to visit An Muxin.

Seeing Fu Rou looking pale, An Jifeng approached and asked, "Aunt Fu, what’s wrong?"

Fu Rou, reminded of An Muxin who was still in the hospital to protect her pregnancy, recounted her encounter with An Ge.

She added: "You’re here to see Muxin, right? Ah, this ordeal has terrified her. Let me join you to check on her."

An Jifeng asked: "I heard President Huo was seriously injured this time, even having his spleen removed. Is he alright?"

Fu Rou sighed deeply:

"Don’t even mention it. I haven’t even seen Ah Yan in person yet. Come, let’s visit Muxin first."

An Jifeng nodded: "Alright."

When the two arrived at An Muxin’s room, she was having an emotional breakdown, sobbing uncontrollably.

"What do I do, what can I do... What should I do..."

Cui Zhu, understanding the situation, comforted her:

"Young Lady, it seems that Gu Changfeng’s years of lurking by your side were for revenge, perhaps even against the entire An family. We need to find out how the An family wronged him in the first place."

Cui Zhu’s words calmed An Muxin slightly.

She stammered: "Yes, you’re right. To take down an enemy, you first need to understand their identity."

Cui Zhu nodded.

"The An family has made many enemies in the political circle over the years. Discovering Gu Changfeng’s true identity could take time.

I believe this matter affects the future of the An Family. It’s best to inform the eldest son..."

After a pause, she continued:

"He’s the future family head, the only one capable of uncovering Gu Changfeng’s background."

An Muxin hesitated:

"But if I tell my brother everything now, he might kill me. He’s always assumed the child I’m carrying belongs to Huo Shaoyan,

Grandma thinks so too. If they find out it’s... a bastard, they’ll never forgive me..."

...

**

Meanwhile, An Ge walked into Huo Shaoyan’s hospital room.

She had barely stepped in when she saw Huo Shaoyan nearly falling off the bed.

She rushed forwards, yelling in alarm: "Why can’t you just lie down properly? What are you trying to do?"

Huo Shaoyan clutched his stomach wound.

His complexion was pale due to the pain.

Leaning weakly on An Ge, he rasped:

"I need to go to the bathroom. Help me there..."

An Ge replied, "I’ll get you a bedpan..."

Upon hearing this, the man’s face darkened. Coldly pressing his lips, he said:

"I’m not about to lie here like some useless invalid. I’m getting up!"

An Ge: "..."

Huo Shaoyan continued: "Unless you help me whip it out, I’m not saying I can’t aim for the bedpan!!"

An Ge thought he was nothing but a barbaric scoundrel—harder to handle than her ancestors!
