Chapter 355: Chapter 355: Be good, don’t disturb the fetus

After Huo Shaoyan said this, he bent down and carried Huo Shaoxin away in his arms.

Once he brought Huo Shaoxin back, Huo Shaoyan sank into a prolonged state of contemplation.

Gu Changfeng had said that An Ge was his long-lost sister.

So, who exactly were they?

Based on the clues he currently had, he could only confirm that Gu Changfeng was the leader of the Red Star Alliance. Beyond that, nothing else could be found.

However, Shaoyan was certain that the name "Gu Changfeng" was definitely not his real name.

A man capable of biding his time as a bodyguard around An Muxin for over a decade, only to suddenly reveal a remarkable side of himself, must undoubtedly harbor a deep-seated grudge against the An Family.

Otherwise, he couldn’t think of any other plausible explanation.

That night, Huo Shaoyan couldn’t sleep.

The same went for An Muxin.

Because, half an hour later, An Muxin was yanked out of bed by Gu Changfeng and thrown to the floor.

At this moment, An Muxin felt an instinctive fear toward Gu Changfeng.

She looked at the man, dressed all in black, who brazenly stood in her room, finding it hard to believe what she saw.

Dressed in a black shirt and slacks, his chiseled, handsome features appeared sinister and terrifying under the warm light.

An Muxin clutched her knee, which had been painfully stomped on by the man, as tears poured uncontrollably from her eyes.

Her voice trembled:

"Gu... Gu Changfeng, didn’t I already agree to your demands? I promised to let you attend my grandfather’s birthday banquet as my boyfriend. Why are you still treating me like this?"

At this moment, Gu Changfeng raised his hand, gripping her throat. Just a slight squeeze, and An Muxin began to show signs of labored breathing.

She struggled to breathe, unable to utter a single word.

Soon, her face twisted into a fearful grimace due to the lack of oxygen.

Yet even so, Gu Changfeng showed no intention of letting her go.

His voice was as sharp and piercing as ice shards falling to the ground,

"How many times have I warned you—don’t trouble An Ge. Which word don’t you understand?"

An Muxin’s eyes widened in shock.

She had never expected An Ge would go to Gu Changfeng to complain about her.

With difficulty, An Muxin let out a few broken, gasping words,

"I... I won’t dare again. Please, I beg you, let me go... I promise I won’t cause her trouble anymore... Sob, sob..."

Gu Changfeng did not intend to kill An Muxin at this moment.

He released her throat.

An Muxin immediately erupted into a fit of violent coughing after being freed.

Once he saw her breathing gradually return to normal, Gu Changfeng said to her impassively,

"The jade pendant you mentioned to her over the phone—where is it?"

Having already experienced Gu Changfeng’s ruthlessness,

An Muxin genuinely feared this madman might strangle her to death.

Without much hesitation, she stumbled toward the vanity table, pulling open a drawer and retrieving a solid green jade pendant of imperial jade.

She respectfully held the pendant out to Gu Changfeng with trembling hands and a quivering voice,

"Th-this is the pendant. This pendant... I had Cui Zhu take it from An Baoying..."

Gu Changfeng accepted the jade pendant and, at a single glance, recognized it as something his aunt Qin Huaisheng had personally carved back in the day.

Years ago, his aunt had crafted a jade pendant for each junior member of the Qin Family. His was carved with a dragon, while Qin Xiaoqi’s had a phoenix.

His aunt had said that the eldest through fifth generations of the Qin Family lacked exceptional talent. She hoped that he and Xiaoqi could soar like a dragon and a phoenix, protecting the Qin Family legacy in the future.

Yet, all these years later, he hadn’t just failed to safeguard the Qin Family’s legacy—

He hadn’t even avenged the Qin Family’s slaughter.

Gu Changfeng’s eyes reddened, his gaze suffused with a bloodthirsty, murderous intensity.

An Muxin, shrinking into a corner, dared not even draw a deep breath.

After securing the jade pendant, Gu Changfeng quickly reined himself in.

In a few strides, he approached the cowering An Muxin, bending down to grab her up by one arm.

An Muxin shivered all over in terror, her face soaked with tears,

"Gu Changfeng, please, don’t kill me. I’ll do whatever you want, just don’t kill me..."

At this moment, instead of tightening his grip, Gu Changfeng released her collar and even wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

His thin lips curved slightly in an ambiguous smirk as he said,

"Don’t be so nervous. You’re the eldest daughter of the An Family—why would I kill you? I’d sooner curry favor with you. Be good now. Rest early, don’t overexert yourself. Goodnight."

After saying this, Gu Changfeng turned and left without looking back.

It took An Muxin what felt like an eternity to finally calm down after he left.

She immediately called for Cui Zhu to appear before her.

Seeing how shaken the young lady looked, Cui Zhu hurriedly asked, "Eldest Miss, are you alright?"

An Muxin’s expression turned vicious as she said, "Didn’t I tell you to send someone to assassinate him? How is it he’s completely unharmed?"

Cui Zhu hesitated, as though finding it hard to explain, before responding,

"The hitman said Gu Changfeng’s personal bodyguards number at least a dozen. He barely managed to escape alive."

Clenching her teeth, An Muxin snarled, "In that case, put out a bounty on the dark web. I refuse to believe I can’t kill him..."

"But, Eldest Miss... no one on the dark web will dare take on a job to assassinate the leader of the Red Star Alliance anymore. Furthermore, Gu Changfeng might already be suspicious of us. So..."

An Muxin lost control of her emotions:

"Then what should I do? When will this end? When will I finally be free of his clutches? I can’t take this anymore—he controls my every move. I can’t even sleep in peace... What am I supposed to do?"

Cui Zhu comforted her,

"Eldest Miss, perhaps it’s time to move back to the ancestral home of the An Family. It has the most advanced security systems in the world. No matter how skilled Gu Changfeng is, he won’t be able to infiltrate the ancestral home."

Cui Zhu’s suggestion soothed An Muxin’s frazzled spirits.

Once she regained her composure, An Muxin asked Cui Zhu, "Did you arrange everything I instructed?"

Cui Zhu replied, "I’ve already met with Lin Keke. She has agreed."

An Muxin said, "This matter must be executed flawlessly. Gu Changfeng cares deeply for An Ge. Make sure he never finds out we are the masterminds behind any harm coming to her. Once Lin Keke has outlived her usefulness, eliminate her!"

Cui Zhu nodded, "Understood, Eldest Miss."

...

The next day, Jingcheng.

After waking up, An Ge called Lin Keke, "Let’s meet this afternoon."

Hearing this, Lin Keke immediately knew that An Ge had fully trusted her.

She let out a long breath and said, "Should I come to you, or..."

An Ge replied, "Someone will pick you up. Where are you staying now?"

Lin Keke hesitated before responding, "I’m... staying at Fengqiao Villa."

She paused, then quickly explained,

"President Huo probably thought I clicked well with his little sister and could help look after her. Please don’t misunderstand, there’s nothing going on between me and President Huo."

Lin Keke had said this deliberately.

She was currently working to create a persona of kindness and purity in front of An Ge.

In any case, she needed to suppress her ambitions to climb into Huo Shaoyan’s bed for now—and never let those intentions slip at such a critical juncture.

Because Lin Keke played her role so convincingly, An Ge didn’t overthink it. She simply said, "Alright, someone will collect you at Fengqiao Villa this afternoon."

Lin Keke replied, "Mrs. Huo, I heard that President Huo is returning to Jingcheng with Ms. Huo today. Perhaps you could personally visit Fengqiao Villa?"

An Ge frowned, "Why? What does that have to do with me?"

Lin Keke thought for a moment, then said nonchalantly,

"I heard Ms. Huo had an episode early this morning and injured President Huo with a fruit knife... If you could visit President Huo, I’m sure he’d be touched."

Upon hearing that Huo Shaoxin had injured Huo Shaoyan, An Ge was rather surprised.

However, she had no intention of getting involved with Huo Shaoyan.

So, she told Lin Keke, "I’m picking someone up at the airport this noon—I don’t have time."

Of course, Lin Keke had no genuine desire for An Ge and Huo Shaoyan to mend their relationship. Therefore, she feigned understanding and responded, "Alright then. Shall we meet at three this afternoon?"

Time flew by.

After lunch, An Ge arranged for the two little ones to be taken care of and left for the airport with Qin Ming.

What prompted An Ge to accompany Qin Ming to the airport was overhearing his phone call with Gu Changfeng. Through the conversation, she learned that Gu Changfeng had been attacked in Jingcheng and got injured.

At 1:10 PM, An Ge arrived at the airport’s arrivals area with Qin Ming.

Roughly a minute later, An Ge spotted Gu Changfeng walking out of the VIP security channel.

However, he was not alone. Beside him was a slight, short-haired young woman who had a frail build.

The girl clung tightly to Gu Changfeng’s sleeve, seemingly afraid of being separated from him.

Even though she had to half-run to keep up with his pace, she showed no sign of letting go.

Having never met Huo Shaoxin, An Ge was puzzled by the sight.

Standing beside her, Qin Ming explained, "That’s Ms. Huo Shaoxin, President Huo’s sister."

An Ge nodded; no wonder she thought the girl bore a faint resemblance to Huo Shaoyan.

As they got closer, An Ge quickly spotted Huo Shaoyan following not far behind.

Their gazes met and locked.

An Ge couldn’t understand why Huo Shaoyan and Gu Changfeng shared the same flight.

Noticing her bewilderment, Qin Ming leaned toward An Ge and explained,

"Ms. Shaoxin insisted on returning with our boss. President Huo couldn’t stop her and, in her emotional outburst, Ms. Shaoxin even injured him. That’s why they are on the same flight."

As Qin Ming finished speaking, Huo Shaoyan had already walked over.

Once he reached them, his gaze lingered on An Ge’s face for a few seconds before he said, with a trace of bitterness,

"When we were at our closest, you never came to pick me up at the airport..."

An Ge ignored him. Her eyes landed on Gu Changfeng’s injured arm, and she said,

"I heard you were attacked and injured—I was worried, so I came with Qin Ming to meet you."

Huo Shaoyan’s jealousy deepened upon hearing this. He interrupted to say to An Ge,

"I’m injured too..."
