Chapter 408: Chapter 408: Protecting Her, Comforting Her

An Ge’s gaze faltered slightly, and after a while, she said, "Let’s see."

Too many things have happened recently; she has only been in the Imperial City for a few days, and she’s almost died twice.

And all this is related to Huo Shaoyan.

So, she’s afraid that if she keeps getting entangled with Huo Shaoyan like this, she might really end up dead.

Anna noticed her concerns, thought for a moment, and said:

"Actually, President Huo also has his difficulties. In his position, he bears not only the pressure from his family elders and the group,

but also suppression from various other forces... I can see that he genuinely wants to reconcile with you. However, the realistic conflicts between you are too many,

making it impossible for you to let go of past grievances and come together. But, concerning the matter of the child, you better let him know. After all, he is the biological father, and he has an obligation to ensure the safety of both you and the baby."

"I will consider it carefully."

The two chatted for about a quarter of an hour, and then Huo Shaoyan returned with food.

Anna left the space and time for them, wisely stepping out.

An Ge looked extremely weak, with almost no blood color on her face and lips, especially her face, which was so pale it was almost transparent.

Huo Shaoyan just looked at her this way, feeling his heart wrenching tightly, painfully contracting.

He leaned forward and placed a pillow behind her, his throat somewhat tight as he said:

"...You’re very weak now, you can only eat some liquid food, I bought some rice porridge and wontons, which would you like to eat, and I’ll feed you?"

An Ge actually had no appetite.

But, she knows that at times like this, she needs to replenish her nutrition even more.

She said, "Is there chicken soup? I want chicken noodle soup."

Huo Shaoyan had thought she wouldn’t have the appetite to eat anything due to the loss of the child, but unexpectedly, she actively requested something to eat.

Huo Shaoyan was a bit excited, holding her hand, "There is. Wait a few minutes, I’ll arrange it immediately."

An Ge murmured a response, "Okay."

Huo Shaoyan went to make a phone call.

After about ten minutes, someone delivered the chicken noodle soup.

Huo Shaoyan carefully fed her, "It’s a bit hot, eat slowly."

The chicken soup was rich and delicious, and as An Ge ate small spoonfuls, she felt her body gradually warming up, no longer feeling as cold.

But her appetite was not very good.

She managed to eat only half a bowl before she couldn’t eat anymore.

Huo Shaoyan didn’t force her, "If you can’t eat, don’t force yourself. Whenever you’re hungry, I’ll feed you again."

An Ge murmured a response and closed her eyes.

She was very weak and fell asleep shortly after closing her eyes.

When she woke up again, it was already the next morning.

She opened her eyes, feeling much better today than yesterday; at least her body didn’t feel as weak.

She wanted to get up from the bed, but just as she tried to prop herself up, she found her hand tightly held by the man leaning on the bedside.

He must have stayed with her the whole night, exhausted to the extreme, falling asleep by her hospital bed.

A circle of stubble appeared on his chin, with dark circles under his eyes, making him look somewhat disheveled.

He probably didn’t sleep soundly, as his brows remained furrowed.

An Ge silently watched him for a while before carefully withdrawing her hand from his grasp.

After getting out of bed, she took a thin blanket and draped it over him before heading to the bathroom.

After washing up, she quietly looked at herself in the mirror.

Very thin.

Her face had become smaller from the thinness.

"Women shouldn’t touch cold water after a miscarriage..."

Because of this voice, An Ge’s brows furrowed deeply.

She turned her head, looking at Fu Rou, who somehow entered her hospital room, "Who allowed you to come in?"

Fu Rou, dressed in the attire of a noblewoman, looked rosy and even appeared to have a sign of entering a second spring.

Faced with An Ge’s indifference, Fu Rou did not become angry at all.

She said, "I specifically came to apologize to you..."

An Ge walked out of the bathroom, "It’s not necessary."

Fu Rou lowered her voice and said:

"An Ge, Ah Yan has looked after you for a day and a night, now he’s sleeping deeply, let’s... keep our voices down so as not to wake him. I... I mean no harm; I’ll leave in just a few minutes."

An Ge expressionlessly said, "If you’re here to apologize, you’ve done it, you can leave now."

Fu Rou tried to get closer to her, attempting to hold her hand,

"An An, a woman must take good care of herself after a miscarriage, and you must not touch cold water, or you’ll be left with lingering ailments..."

An Ge distanced herself from her, refusing to be touched.

Her attitude was cold:

"Lady Fu, there’s no need for any of that between us; just say directly, what do you want from me?"

Fu Rou said, "An An, it seems you won’t be forgiving me anytime soon. I’ll come to see you another day then."

Pausing for a few seconds, she added meaningfully,

"Oh, there’s one thing you may not know yet. An Muxin has become blind and disabled. Once she’s discharged, she’ll be quietly sent out of the Imperial Country, never to return in this lifetime,

so rest assured while recuperating; she won’t bully you anymore. Also... the online rumors about you have also been quelled; no one dares to talk about you anymore..."

She hadn’t even finished speaking when Huo Shaoyan, suddenly jolted awake from a nightmare, strode over.

His face was extremely grim. Once he approached, he coldly said to Fu Rou, "Who allowed you to come?"

Fu Rou, feeling aggrieved, said, "I... I just came to see her, I came to apologize..."

"She doesn’t need your apology."

"You should leave."

Fu Rou hesitated, then said:

"Ah Yan, I just want... to ease the relationship with her a little. In any case, she and you will surely reconcile in the future. We’ll be a family, and I don’t want to have a poor mother-in-law relationship with her in the future..."

Huo Shaoyan coldly interrupted her:

"She won’t have a mother-in-law." He paused, "Because I have already cut off our mother-son relationship. Please leave, Lady Fu."

Fu Rou: "..."

Fu Rou’s face turned pale, and she left with a cold expression.

After she left An Ge’s hospital room, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and the more her anger festered.

Ultimately, she blamed An Muxin for everything.

Thus, although she was about to leave the hospital, she specifically went to find An Muxin upon remembering she was also admitted there.

An Muxin now resembled a stray dog, with only a caretaker looking after her. There wasn’t even a bodyguard at the door.

Fu Rou spent a small amount of money to bribe the caretaker to leave.

After the caretaker stepped out, Fu Rou picked up a basin of water and splashed it onto An Muxin, who had finally fallen asleep after getting a painkiller.

An Muxin, drenched and startled, let out a sharp scream, "No... no..."

One of An Muxin’s eyes had been gouged out, and a leg broken. Now, she was like a bird scared by the mere rustle of leaves, collapsing at any slight disturbance.

"Don’t kill me, don’t kill me... sob sob, no..."

She trembled in fear, her mind in a haze, as she curled up in a corner.

Fu Rou stepped in front of her and grabbed her chin,

"You little brat, if it wasn’t illegal to kill, I would’ve strangled you right now."

Upon realizing it was Fu Rou, An Muxin pleaded in tears, "... Don’t kill me... no..."

Seeing her now, Fu Rou felt nothing but revulsion.

Just as she raised her arm to hit An Muxin, Professor Laura entered.

Professor Laura squinted deeply and said:

"Lady Fu, your son disowns you as his mother, and your parents as their daughter, not because of An Muxin, but because of An Ge.

An Ge’s attitude determines theirs towards you. An Muxin has already received the punishment she deserves. Beating her to death now won’t make a difference."

The night before, Fu Rou had drunk with Professor Laura, and had woken up in his bed after being drunk.

Professor Laura had a way with women, saying he had been widowed when young and had no other woman since because he had his eye on her all along.

Fu Rou hadn’t been pampered by a man for a long time, nor had she heard such sweet words.

Therefore, after these two days of interaction, Fu Rou had come to trust Professor Laura to some extent.

She asked, "What should I do now? They all ignore me; what should I do in the future?"

Professor Laura walked up to her and said in a low voice, "Wait for me at my place tonight, and I’ll tell you what to do."

As he spoke, he squeezed her ample chest, "Good girl, since I like you so much, I’ll surely help you."

Fu Rou, stirred by this, said, "Alright. I’ll do as you say."

Professor Laura said, "You go wait outside, I’ll have a few words with her alone."

Fu Rou asked, "She’s a wreck now; what are you going to talk about?"

Professor Laura said, "Don’t you hate her? I’ll punish her for you, vent some of your anger."

Pausing, he added, "You know, being a medical expert, I can make someone suffer more than death."

Hearing this, Fu Rou was pleased.

After she left, Professor Laura locked the hospital room door, then approached the bed and looked down at An Muxin, declaring:

"If you want revenge, if you want to rise again, from now on, you have to listen to me."

An Muxin, a trapped beast, heard this and her eyes lit up a bit,

"Alright. As long as you help me get revenge, I’ll do whatever you say."

Professor Laura sneered, "Oh? Then come over and lick me, let me see your sincerity?"

Without a moment’s hesitation, An Muxin knelt at the bedside and undid Professor Laura’s belt.

Professor Laura was very pleased, saying with a smile:

"Your eye may be damaged, but your body proportions are exceptionally perfect. Rest assured, as long as you’re obedient like a dog, I promise, I can help you be reborn."

Elsewhere.

After An Ge finished breakfast with Huo Shaoyan accompanying her, she noticed his tired and exhausted countenance and said:

"You should go back and rest, I feel much better today."

Huo Shaoyan refused without even thinking, "I’ll stay here with you."

An Ge pressed her lips together, looked at him with a complicated gaze for a moment, and said:

"Huo Shaoyan, you need to rest now."

After a pause, she added, "At least go home, take a shower, and change into clean clothes before coming back."
