Chapter 375: You Kiss Me

Chapter 375: Chapter 375: You Kiss Me

But her gaze only lingered on Huo Shaoyan for a few seconds before she turned aside and closed her eyes again.

Huo Shaoyan didn’t leave, staying with her until the evening lights began to shine.

When An Ge woke up, she was captivated by the large area of sunset outside the window and the man surrounded by the glow, dealing with business on his computer.

His features, now much slimmer, appeared exceptionally chiseled in the sunset light, and his phoenix eyes were both bright and deep.

His hair had grown a bit long, with the fringe almost covering his eyes.

An Ge looked at him, lost in thought for a while.

She didn’t know what meaning his companionship could possibly have.

If he truly wanted to reconcile with her, shouldn’t he first resolve the two significant obstacles, An Muxin and Mo Yuan?

Perhaps her gaze was too focused, as the man soon looked up at her.

Their eyes met, and the atmosphere became slightly tense.

Huo Shaoyan closed the computer and walked towards her,

"For dinner, do you want to sneak out to eat, or should I have someone deliver it?"

Staying in the air-conditioned room was quite uncomfortable, and An Ge, having been lying down nearly all day, wanted to stretch her limbs.

She said, "I’ll call the kids first, then let’s sneak out for a walk."

Huo Shaoyan nodded, "Okay. I’ll arrange it."

Huo Shaoyan made arrangements for their outing, while An Ge called the kids at the Castle Manor.

"Mommy, Mommy, Granny Lin said you couldn’t come back these days because you’re busy. I miss you so much."

It was Huo Chenghuan speaking.

The little one was leaning against his aunt, Huo Shaoxin, with a lollipop in his mouth, and his big black-and-white eyes were especially beautiful.

An Ge gently said, "I’ll come back to be with you as soon as I’m done, okay?"

Huo Chenghuan responded with a gentle hum, obediently saying,

"Mommy, while you were away, Huanhuan ate well and wasn’t picky at all."

He paused,

"Also, Mommy, you don’t know how amazing auntie is. She paints so well and has drawn so many portraits of us."

Listening to Huo Chenghuan’s soft and tender voice, An Ge’s heart lifted.

She chatted with Huo Chenghuan for a while and asked, "Where’s your brother?"

Huo Chenghuan hesitated for a moment, "Ah, brother? He seems to be upstairs... I’ll go call him now..."

Huo Chenghuan ran up the stairs with his little legs, pitter-patter.

She pushed open the door, but her brother wasn’t there.

Huo Chenghuan frowned, muttering to herself,

"Huh, where is brother? When I was downstairs painting with aunt, he was still in the room coding on the computer..."

An Ge frowned and said to Huo Chenghuan, "Huanhuan, go downstairs and find Nanny Lin to take the call."

"Okay, Mommy."

Two minutes later, the phone was answered by Nanny Lin, who took care of the children.

"Miss, what’s going on?"

An Ge said, "Huai Shang is not in his room, arrange for the manor’s security to look for him."

Upon hearing this, Nanny Lin was a bit flustered, "Okay... okay, Miss, I’ll send someone to search right away."

After hanging up with Nanny Lin, Huo Shaoyan, having arranged the schedule, came in from outside the door.

Seeing An Ge’s furrowed brows and worried face, he quickly asked, "What’s wrong? Did something happen?"

An Ge didn’t hide it from Huo Shaoyan. She relayed the situation and said, "I’m a bit worried about Huai Shang."

Huo Shaoyan said, "The Castle Manor is the safest place all over Jincheng, unless Huai Shang left on his own, no one can take him away..."

An Ge frowned, "What worries me is that Huai Shang might have left the manor himself."

Huo Shaoyan reassured her, "If he left on his own, the manor’s security would have told you."

While speaking, Fu Rou’s call came through.

At that moment, Fu Rou was already at the airport.

Fu Rou called Huo Shaoyan, "Ah Yan, I’m at the airport now."

Huo Shaoyan didn’t respond.

His extremely cold attitude left Fu Rou deeply dispirited.

Fu Rou had to get straight to the point, saying,

"Your grandpa said that An Muxin is currently staying at the Fu Mansion, and the day after tomorrow is when An Muxin will provide the serum for Huai Shang. Your grandpa also wanted to see Huai Shang,

so I called Huai Shang, explained the situation to him, and sought his opinion. Huai Shang agreed to go with me to the Imperial City."

After Fu Rou finished speaking, Huo Shaoyan’s voice turned icy as he said, "Let Huai Shang take the call."

On the other end, Fu Rou gave Huo Huaisang a glance before handing him the phone.

Huo Huaisang took the phone from her hand and actively said to Huo Shaoyan,

"Dad, please tell mom that I’m safe, and she shouldn’t worry about me."

Huo Shaoyan tersely asked, "Is what your grandma said true?"

Knowing Fu Rou’s threats, Huo Huaisang didn’t dare to tell the truth.

He said, "Yes."

Understanding that he couldn’t extract anything from Huo Huaisang, Huo Shaoyan said,

"I’ll come to the Imperial City in a few days to see you."

Hearing this, Huo Huaisang breathed a sigh of relief.

He said, "Okay. Please tell mom not to worry."

Just as Huo Shaoyan was about to agree, An Ge snatched the phone from him.

An Ge’s voice was a bit urgent, "Huai Shang, it’s mom."

"Mom, I’m very safe. Great-grandfather misses me, so I decided to go back to the Imperial City with Grandma."

An Ge didn’t believe things could be that simple, she was a bit anxious,

"Huai Shang, did your grandma threaten you? If you encounter any trouble, you must tell Mom, okay?"

"Mom, Grandma didn’t threaten me. It was my own choice. Grandma just suggested that you and Dad have been tense lately with a lot going on,

she said I’m a man and should help relieve some of your burdens. It’s almost time for my third serum treatment, so I decided to fly to the Imperial City with Grandma."

He paused,

"I’ve already contacted Mr. Lu, with him around, I’ll be very safe in the Imperial City."

An Ge, like Huo Shaoyan, knew that it was impossible to pry the truth from Huo Huaisang.

So she had no choice but to say:

"Alright, I’ll call your Uncle Lu in a bit and ask him to pick you up at the airport."

Pausing again,

"Huai Shang, remember, never be alone with An Muxin, okay?"

Huo Huaisang responded with a "hmm," "Mom, I know, don’t worry."

After ending the call with Huo Huaisang, An Ge hurriedly found Lu Huai’an’s number on her phone and called him.

Lu Huai’an had just gotten off work at this time; he planned to wait for Gu Ru Yi at her office.

As he quickly walked towards Gu Ru Yi’s office, he answered An Ge’s call, "Hello?"

After An Ge briefly stated her purpose, she said, "I’m not comfortable having Huai Shang in the Imperial City, can you help take care of him for a few days?"

Lu Huai’an initially wanted to refuse, but after a second thought, the refusal changed when it reached his lips,

"With our friendship, of course, it’s not a problem."

An Ge said, "Then remember to pick him up at the airport?"

Lu Huai’an readily agreed,

"I’ll personally pick him up, ensuring that Fu Rou doesn’t lure him away."

With Lu Huai’an’s assurance, An Ge felt a bit relieved, and she said,

"I’ll be in the Imperial City in two days at most."

An Ge estimated that given Gu Changfeng’s current condition, it would take about two to three days to transfer to a general ward.

An Ge planned to fly to the Imperial City once Gu Changfeng was transferred to the general ward.

Lu Huai’an wasn’t concerned about these details, he said,

"Alright, when you come to the Imperial City, call me in advance, and I’ll arrange to pick you up at the airport."

After finishing the call with An Ge, Lu Huai’an pushed the door open and entered Gu Ru Yi’s office.

Today was Gu Ru Yi’s last day working at the Lu Group.

When Lu Huai’an entered, she had already packed her personal items and was about to leave.

Seeing Lu Huai’an come in didn’t surprise her; she said expressionlessly,

"Chairman Lu, as of now, I’m no longer President Gu of the Lu Group, which means,

there’s no longer any connection between us, so please don’t cling to me shamelessly, or I’ll choose to call the police."

Lu Huai’an was almost tired of hearing this recently.

He directly ignored Gu Ru Yi’s warning and got straight to the point by saying,

"Don’t flatter yourself; I’m not here to reconcile but for something else."

Gu Ru Yi frowned, "Something else? What is it?"

Lu Huai’an said seriously, "It’s about An Ge. She asked us to take care of her son for a few days..."

Gu Ru Yi didn’t believe it and pretended to call An Ge.

Lu Huai’an snatched the phone from her hand and, before Gu Ru Yi could get angry, walked towards the door with her phone.

As he walked, he said to Gu Ru Yi who was chasing him,

"President Gu, news of our divorce has spread everywhere. If you don’t mind making a scene, you can keep flirting and bantering with me."

Gu Ru Yi was so angry that her eyes turned red.

She quickly stepped forward and blocked his way just as Lu Huai’an was about to exit.

She looked at Lu Huai’an’s smiling face and said coldly,

"I must have been blind back then to have fallen for a rascal like you."

Lu Huai’an wasn’t bothered by the insult.

He raised Gu Ru Yi’s phone into the air, shaking it as a gesture, and said to her,

"President Gu, if you want to get your phone back, have dinner with me. After dinner, we’ll go to the airport to pick up Young Master Huo, okay?"

Gu Ru Yi hated being threatened the most.

Angry, she decided to leave without her phone.

She raised her hand and pushed Lu Huai’an hard, intending to leave quickly, when Lu Huai’an called out to her from behind,

"Hey, I heard your brother drove drunk and injured someone, and it made the news. Gu Yuandong is afraid that your incompetent brother will affect his career and is threatening to disown him by sending him to jail himself. Are you sure you want to break ties with me at this critical moment?"

Upon hearing this, it was as if Gu Ru Yi was suddenly grabbed by the lifeline, and she stopped in her tracks.

Lu Huai’an raised his hand to pull her in front of him, pinched her chin with one hand, and said with a smile,

"President Gu, we were married for a while. If you say the word, I can definitely help with your brother’s issue."

Gu Ru Yi reached out to remove the hand Lu Huai’an had on her chin, looked at him coldly, and said, "If I say the word, you can help?"

The smile in Lu Huai’an’s eyes deepened, "Of course."

Gu Ru Yi pressed her lips together, then a sarcastic smile appeared on her face, and she said,

"In that case, may I trouble you, Chairman Lu, to pull some strings and help my brother this once? Can you?"

Lu Huai’an replied, "I can, but I have a small request."

The fake smile on Gu Ru Yi’s face instantly cooled, her voice icy, "What request?"

Lu Huai’an said, "How about we start dating? Or, you could give me a kiss now?"
