Disheartened, I Fled from the CEO with Our Babies
Chapter 400: Soft-hearted,

Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Soft-hearted,

Huo Shaoyan spoke methodically:

"Mr. An, no one is more aware than you that I have never wanted to marry her from the start. But unfortunately, the elders in the family wouldn’t allow it,

especially my grandparents. They once threatened that if I didn’t marry An Muxin, they would secretly harm An Ge.

Although I have considerable influence in Jingcheng, I can’t protect her completely in Imperial City. So, I had to compromise."

He paused, intentionally adding,

"Not long ago, my former wife almost died at the hands of three fugitive desperadoes. So, I can’t gamble with this."

The words were half true and half false.

An Jifeng squinted slightly and said:

"So, what you mean is that you are willing to marry Xinxin as your wife due to elder pressure?"

Huo Shaoyan spoke to make An Jifeng and them lower their guard, saying:

"If Mr. An has any method that benefits both sides, I can also choose not to marry your dirty sister."

An Jifeng’s face sank slightly.

Huo Shaoyan continued:

"Of course, I’m not a good person either. The marriage between me and your sister is merely for mutual benefit. Your father, Uncle An, is trying his best to climb to a higher position,

and the An Family is most afraid of scandalous rumors. So, you need me, President Huo, to be your scapegoat. Meanwhile, I need An Muxin to temporarily quell my elders’ urge to harm my former wife, An Ge."

He paused, intentionally adding,

"Besides, my son’s life requires An Muxin’s blood to be saved, so I have no choice."

This statement is rather objective.

An Jifeng pondered and expressed his stance,

"Since President Huo has made a choice based on objective factors, I hope Mr. Huo will treat my only sister well."

He paused,

"You may not love her, but please do not harm her. Even if she commits an unforgivable crime, please hand her over to me, and I will handle her."

Huo Shaoyan curled his lips and sneered:

"If she indeed commits an unforgivable crime, I’d dirty my hands dealing with it personally. So, Mr. An, your worries are unnecessary."

Faced with Huo Shaoyan’s sarcasm, An Jifeng’s face looked rather unpleasant.

But the disgraceful matter of An Muxin really brought shame to the An Family, so he could only endure it.

An Jifeng withdrew his gaze from Huo Shaoyan and looked at the extremely pale An Muxin, saying:

"Cooperate with President Huo and provide serum for Young Master Huo promptly. Come back to the An Mansion with me after you’ve drawn the blood."

He paused,

"Tonight is Grandpa’s birthday banquet; don’t cause any more trouble for me. Otherwise, I can’t cover for you."

Given the current situation, An Muxin could only take one step at a time.

She said, "Understood."

After An Muxin finished donating blood, she left Mufu Manor with An Jifeng.

Before leaving, An Jifeng took another look at An Ge,

"I heard Ms. An has been searching for her biological parents; if you need help, feel free to reach out to me."

An Ge recalled some information she’d investigated earlier about the Qin family’s elder brother’s three-month-old son.

According to Gu Ru Yi, during the tragic incident at the Qin family years ago, An Jifeng held a baby boy who was only three months old.

An Ge suspected that the child might still be alive.

Therefore, she proactively suggested adding An Jifeng as a friend at this moment, "Shall we add each other as friends?"

In response, the expression on Huo Shaoyan and An Muxin’s faces didn’t look too good.

But they didn’t have the authority to interfere.

After adding as friends, An Jifeng left with An Muxin.

Afterward, Huo Shaoyan spoke to An Ge: "Why did you add him?"

An Ge replied coldly: "Why can’t I add him?"

Huo Shaoyan said: "He’s not a good person."

An Ge sneered: "Are you any better?"

Huo Shaoyan: "..."

An Muxin had already finished drawing blood, and the serum could soon be extracted from the blood using technology.

An Ge wasn’t worried that Huo Shaoyan would be malicious enough not to give the serum to treat Huo Huaisang.

So, she suggested leaving to Huo Shaoyan at this moment, "I have some matters later, need to go first."

Huo Shaoyan didn’t forcefully stop her, just asked: "Where to? I’ll give you a ride."

"I have a driver and a car..."

An Ge didn’t want to exacerbate the tension with Huo Shaoyan.

Knowing that Huo Shaoyan responded better to softness than hardness, she softened her tone a bit,

"Stay here with Huaisang, I’ll come over to accompany him once I’m done."

Her voice was rarely gentle, giving Huo Shaoyan a feeling of being flattered and overjoyed.

He said: "You really are willing to come over once you’re done?"

An Ge nodded: "Even if I don’t plan to come over, you have ways to make me. Can I deceive you?"

Speaking of this, An Ge gave Huo Shaoyan a deep look and asked pointedly:

"Are you suspecting that the incident where I was almost harmed by three fugitives before was orchestrated by your grandfather?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Shaoyan raised his eyebrow and asked: "Isn’t it?"

An Ge looked at him somewhat speechlessly, "Why would you suspect your grandfather?"

Huo Shaoyan candidly confessed:

"Because on the day you had the accident, I was on my way to rescue you when I was ambushed and knocked unconscious, which is why I wasn’t able to reach the scene in time to save you. Besides, he once declared he would be ruthless towards you, so I suspect him..."

"It’s not him."

An Ge interrupted him, saying:

"According to Li Shaosi, this matter should be related to An Muxin. Although the three fugitives have been shot dead and there’s no evidence left, he said it’s very likely An Muxin’s doing. I think An Muxin is more difficult to deal with than we imagined."

Huo Shaoyan said, "That’s exactly because she’s rotten to the core, so either don’t strike at all, or strike to kill her outright!"

Upon hearing this, An Ge instantly thought of something,

"You don’t plan to make a move on her at Commanding Officer An’s birthday banquet tonight, do you?"

Huo Shaoyan gazed steadily at her with his phoenix eyes, saying:

"I know what’s bothering you about me. Rest assured, once I deal with An Muxin, I’ll handle Mo Yuan. After removing all these thorns from your heart, we’ll have a good discussion about what’s next, okay?"

An Ge replied calmly, "Let’s talk after you’re done."

An Ge quickly left Mufu Manor.

An hour later, she met Fu Huaijin, who was lying in a hospital bed.

Fu Huaijin was very weak and could only speak while lying down.

An Ge placed a pillow behind his back to make him more comfortable leaning this way.

An Ge looked at him worriedly, "How are you feeling now?"

Fu Huaijin’s breath was a bit unstable, and he spoke a little breathlessly, "Much better."

Saying this, his gaze began to scrutinize An Ge closely, with memories of Qin Huaisheng’s young appearance playing in his mind.

In his memory, Qin Huaisheng always had short hair.

Now, looking at An Ge with her short hair, and her enchanting peach blossom eyes, his eyes inexplicably moistened.

He swallowed, hoarsely saying, "Are you really Shengsheng’s daughter Qin Xiaoqi?"

As for whether she really was Qin Xiaoqi, An Ge couldn’t guarantee a hundred percent.

Thinking of this, she said, "Probably."

Paused,

"Because I have no way to prove I truly am. Li Shaosi told me I am Qin Xiaoqi, and Gu Changfeng is Qin family’s Sixth Brother Qin Jingzhi. I think perhaps only Gu Changfeng can verify the mystery of my ancestry."

Fu Huaijin: "I heard he almost died at the hands of the terrorist Jerry, and is seriously injured?"

An Ge responded with a hmm, and said, "He’s still recovering from his injuries. When I return to Jingcheng this time, I will talk to him about this matter."

"Give me his contact information." Fu Huaijin’s voice was very hoarse, sounding weak but also profoundly meaningful, "When he’s better, I... will contact him alone."

An Ge thought for a moment, then gave Gu Changfeng’s number to Fu Huaijin, and then said:

"I heard that Leo, the medical genius, can cure your illness..."

Fu Huaijin smiled bitterly:

"I’m not afraid of death. On the contrary, I find living to be a torture; I’d rather go down sooner to accompany Shengsheng... It’s just, the Qin family’s tragedy remains unsolved, their grudge unavenged, I have no face to meet her."

An Ge was moved by Fu Huaijin’s deep affection for Qin Huaisheng, and she asked, "Can you tell me about your story with her?"

Fu Huaijin looked at her for a while before saying, "I’m tired."

Meaning, he didn’t want to speak.

An Ge didn’t force him, "Okay. Then you have a good rest."

After An Ge came out of his hospital room, she saw Madam Fu and Fu Rou, who came to visit Fu Huaijin in the hospital.

It’s said that enemies will cross paths on a narrow road.

Before An Geyu could speak, Madam Fu and Fu Rou almost simultaneously questioned, "What are you doing here?"

Anna came over at this time, explaining to them, "Ms. An was invited by Mr. Fu."

Fu Rou said coldly, "Why did Huaijin invite her over?"

Anna: "You’ll have to ask Mr. Fu about that."

Fu Rou was choked, her face looking unpleasant.

Madam Fu had already experienced An Ge’s prowess; she didn’t want to offend her at this juncture, lest Huo Shaoyan go mad and cancel the engagement to An Muxin.

Therefore, Madam Fu suppressed her anger and warned An Ge:

"I’m telling you, tonight Huo Shaoyan and An Muxin will announce their engagement at Commanding Officer An’s birthday banquet, you’d better not cause trouble."

After saying that, Madam Fu dragged Fu Rou into Fu Huaijin’s hospital room.

As soon as they entered the door, Fu Rou hurriedly asked Fu Huaijin:

"Fu Huaijin, what on earth is going on with you? Are you as bewitched by that enchantress An Ge as Ah Yan is?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Huaijin frowned, "Second Sister, have you somehow gotten dumber with age?"

Fu Rou: "..."

Madam Fu: "Huaijin, your Second Sister is also concerned about you, don’t speak so harshly, it hurts your sibling feelings."

Fu Huaijin’s lips curved in a sarcastic arc, as he pronounced on Fu Rou with a cool and detached tone:

"If it weren’t for her meddling back then, Shengsheng and I would never have been separated. Her ignorance and stupidity caused me to live a life of regret. My relationship with her as siblings has long since ended."

This statement left Fu Rou heartbroken.

With tears in her eyes and her eyes reddening, she choked up and confessed:

"Huaijin, I know it’s my fault for that matter... But Second Sister had her difficulties back then..."

Fu Huaijin was just annoyed by her voice.

He coldly interrupted her:

"Enough, I don’t want to hear it." Pausing for a moment, he then ended it with, "You all should leave, I’m tired and need to rest."

Fu Rou hesitated to speak, "Ah Jin, there is one more thing... I have never told you."

Fu Huaijin’s voice was icy, "What is it?"

"It’s... it’s the paternity test between Qin Xiaoqi and you back then, I... I seemed to have messed up the samples, so there should be a problem with that paternity test. I suspect Qin Xiaoqi might really be your biological daughter..."

Fu Huaijin’s breath hitched suddenly, his volume rising sharply, "What did you say? Xiaoqi is my daughter?"
