Chapter 416: Chapter 416: Deeply Moved

Wen Qing’s eyes flashed with a gleam, and she said:

"You troublesome girl, let me tell you, if you want to ask about her from me, you can. You... you have to pay me, you have to spend money to buy my information, otherwise I won’t say a word."

Wen Qing is obsessed with money.

Her family was poor since childhood, and to escape poverty, she started working at nightclubs as a hostess at eighteen.

After enduring hardships, her son Tang Jiuze finally succeeded, but he always restrained her when it came to money.

This caused her to feel insecure.

Moreover, all her cards were managed by Tang Jiuze.

This time, Tang Jiuze stopped all her bank cards to force her back from abroad.

In short, Wen Qing wanted to make some private money to stand up to Tang Jiuze.

But, just as she finished speaking, Tang Jiuze pushed the door open and came in after finishing his cigarette outside.

As he entered, he glanced at her coldly, "Are you obsessed with money?"

Wen Qing was quite afraid of him, stammering:

"Who told you to stop all my bank cards? Go out and ask around, which group’s big boss’s mother is as shabby as I am? That Mrs. Wang, her son’s annual revenue is not even as much as your monthly turnover,

yet she always looks down on me. She mocks me, saying that I don’t have a single decent piece of jewelry from head to toe... I’m... I have been forced by you, this unfilial son?"

Tang Jiuze sat down on the sofa nearby, looking at her with a half-smile,

"Do you think I don’t know what kind of person you are? With more money, you cause trouble. Are you longing to get jailed?"

Wen Qing likes gambling.

That’s also why Tang Jiuze restrains her financially.

Wen Qing was speechless due to his words.

An Ge wasn’t there to listen to their quarrel.

At this moment, she spoke to Wen Qing, "I’ll give you the money."

Upon hearing this, Wen Qing’s eyes lit up, "How much are you going to give?"

Before An Ge could ask how much she wanted, Tang Jiuze smashed an ashtray, scaring Wen Qing almost out of her wits.

Wen Qing’s eyes widened, "Tang Jiuze, what... what are you doing? Are you trying to scare me to death?"

Tang Jiuze: "Wen Qing, if you continue to be shameless and without self-respect, I’ll throw you back into your hometown’s mountain ditch, leaving you to die alone!"

Wen Qing was afraid of Tang Jiuze, so she reluctantly said to An Ge, "You... you... go ahead and ask, I don’t want your money."

An Ge took off a bracelet from her hand and gave it to her, "Your birthday should be coming soon, let me give you this bracelet."

Wen Qing knew her stuff, and instantly recognized that this bracelet was worth several hundred thousand.

Immediately, she beamed and took the initiative to say:

"I’m not sure if Qin Huaisheng is dead or not. Back then, after I dressed her in funeral clothes, the weather changed. I was worried the quilts being dried at home would get wet, so I went back to collect them. But when I returned after finishing, I didn’t see her... body..."

An Ge squinted and asked, "What happened then?"

Wen Qing replied:

"Later... later, I followed the bloodstains and the messy footprints to start searching. But a heavy rain came, and soon the bloodstains and footprints were washed away..."

An Ge frowned, "Bloodstains and messy footprints?"

Wen Qing nodded, recalling carefully:

"Yes, bloodstains and footprints, which were very large and varied in shape. I can confirm there were at least three people who moved Qin Huaisheng’s body at the time..."

An Ge: "Then why didn’t you tell the truth before?"

Wen Qing’s eyes flickered, and she said:

"I... I was afraid of dying. Because back then, the people who took Qin Huaisheng’s body wrote a few words in the cave where Qin Huaisheng lived, saying I must keep silent if I don’t want to die, or they would kill me and destroy me... So..."

An Ge waited for Wen Qing to finish speaking, "Can you still find the cave where Qin Huaisheng lived now?"

Wen Qing shook her head: "After the heavy rain that year, the cave collapsed. Your mother and I were almost buried alive inside trying to save you."

The mother Wen Qing referred to was An Ge’s foster mother, Ms. Wen.

An Ge was silent for a while.

Seeing her expression vague, Wen Qing thought for a moment and then added:

"So, I also don’t know whether Qin Huaisheng is dead or not. But I can confirm when your mother and I dressed her in funeral clothes, her body was stiff, cold as a block of ice, unlike a living person."

An Ge said, "Got it, thank you." After a pause, she asked, "The urn buried with my grandmother, whose ashes are inside?"

Wen Qing said: "It’s just some of Qin Huaisheng’s belongings from when she was alive. Your mother, kind-hearted, burnt those items into ashes and placed them inside the urn."

After a pause, "However, I don’t know what possessed her to bury Qin Huaisheng’s belongings in your grandmother’s tomb."

Wen Qing didn’t know.

But An Ge could deduce it.

She guessed, perhaps Qin Huaisheng anticipated her short life, so she entrusted Ms. Wen with posthumous affairs, asking her to raise her daughter and someday hand over the Jade Pendant proving her identity...

In short, Qin Huaisheng wanted to protect her.

After obtaining the answers she wanted, An Ge stood up, planning to leave.

She stood up and said to Tang Jiuze, "I’m heading back now."

Tang Jiuze: "Shall I take you?"

An Ge: "Since I came to see you, Huo Shaoyan surely already knows. To avoid unnecessary conflict, let’s contact by phone later."

Tang Jiuze asked: "When are you going to completely break it off with him?"

An Ge thought for a moment, then said:

"I... have a lot on my plate right now, I’m in a cold war with Huo Shaoyan. How about you talk to Ms. Mo Yuan, and it should take about a month or so."

Tang Jiuze responded with a hum, "Alright."

An Ge walked out of the cafe and saw Huo Shaoyan getting out of the car.

The weather had turned cooler, and An Ge’s clothes were thin.

Huo Shaoyan restrained himself from walking towards her, standing still.

An Ge knew that the breakup had to be gradual.

Although he wasn’t coming over, he was definitely there to see her.

Thus, An Ge walked towards him, "President Huo."

She greeted him and then planned to walk away.

Huo Shaoyan hadn’t come to see her for three days.

As the woman passed by him, he raised his hand to grasp her wrist.

An Ge stopped in her tracks, turning her head to look at him, "President Huo?"

Huo Shaoyan’s throat moved a few times, then he let her go, "The weather’s getting colder, you’re not wearing enough."

He calmly said this, then took off his suit jacket and placed it on her shoulders, "I have an appointment with a client nearby, I’m not here to see you."

An Ge found this somewhat unexpected.

She uttered an oh, returned the jacket to him, "Then go ahead and get busy. The hospital is right next door, and I’m not cold; I’ll be there in just a few steps."

After she spoke, she turned and left.

Huo Shaoyan didn’t chase after her.

Because he knew the tighter he pursued, the further he would push her away.

He could only retreat to advance now.

Once she had gone far, Qin Lang asked him, "President, are you still going in?"

Huo Shaoyan responded darkly:

"Tang Jiuze has a tight mouth, it might be difficult to get him to talk. You... find a way to start from his mother Wen Qing, be sure to find out what’s really going on."

Qin Lang: "Yes."

Huo Shaoyan got back into the car and soon drove away.

But before long, his phone vibrated.

It was... Lin Keke calling.

Huo Shaoyan squinted his phoenix eyes, not answering.

Huo Shaoyan didn’t answer Lin Keke’s call, making her restless.

She hesitated for a few seconds and sent a text message to Huo Shaoyan:

President Huo, I’ve seen Ms. Mo Yuan secretly meet Ms. An Ge; I suspect she must have been bothering Ms. An Ge.

Because of her text, Huo Shaoyan turned the car around and headed towards the hospital.

He parked the car and went straight to Lin Keke’s ward.

Lin Keke’s outcome in this conspiracy wasn’t good.

But fortunately, An Ge sent Qin Ming to rescue her in time, saving her life.

During her hospital stay, aside from the caretaker, no one visited her.

Even Fu Rou cut ties with her due to her kidnapping and assault, saying from now on bridges would be bridges, roads would be roads, and they should no longer associate.

Lin Keke was deeply affected.

After a few days of rest, she finally had the energy to plan for her future.

Based on her analysis, if she wanted a wealthy life, she had to hold tight to Huo Shaoyan, the powerful figure; otherwise, it would be very difficult.

She believed she needed Huo Shaoyan to see her value so she could gain his favor.

That was why she sent that text to Huo Shaoyan.

However, she had been waiting for a response from Huo Shaoyan for a long time.

Just as Lin Keke was feeling anxious, Huo Shaoyan pushed open her ward door.

The man in a suit was well-featured and had a noble aura; with just one glance, her heart pounded wildly with emotion.

Lin Keke’s heart trembled with joy.

She excitedly said, "President Huo, you... why have you come?"

Huo Shaoyan approached her, looking down at Lin Keke in bed, "When did you see Mo Yuan going to find her?"

Lin Keke replied, "Seems like three or four days ago, Mo Yuan took a boy to see An Ge, but the bodyguards didn’t let her in. Then, Mr. Fu and Madam Fu came out of An Ge’s ward,

and they all departed together. I guess Mr. Fu and they would definitely suppress it and not tell you, so I thought I’d overstep and inform you."

Huo Shaoyan coldly acknowledged and casually asked,

"I heard you suffered quite a bit, almost being drowned and killed. How do you feel now?"

Lin Keke said, "Much better now."

Huo Shaoyan said, "The news of your kidnapping and assault won’t reach Jingcheng. So, rest assured during your recovery, and once you’ve healed, go back to study well, and don’t have unfounded thoughts."

Pausing, "Take care of yourself."

Huo Shaoyan threw down this line and turned around to leave.

Lin Keke hurriedly said, "President Huo, you gave me the guidance and second chance, if you ever need anything, feel free to command me..."

Huo Shaoyan interrupted her:

"Not necessary. You should remember that it’s thanks to An Ge you luckily survived; she saved your life. If you really want to thank someone, thank her."

Pausing, with an insinuating tone,

"Also, don’t have any crooked thoughts about me. Whether you’re damaged goods or a pure lily, I’m not interested in you at all."
