Chapter 428: Chapter 428 Falling in Love

An Ge: "Did you get through to him, or did he not answer your call?"

"He didn’t answer the call."

An Ge steadied herself and asked, "Did you call his assistant, Qin Lang?"

"I don’t have Assistant Qin’s number."

An Ge pressed her lips together, "I’ll contact Assistant Qin."

After a few seconds,

"You should quickly contact Mr. Fu’s assistant, Fu Chen, and track his whereabouts as soon as possible."

Anna: "Okay."

After ending the call with Anna, An Ge found Qin Lang’s number and dialed it.

Even though An Ge had completely fallen out with Huo Shaoyan, Qin Lang still treated her with respect.

He said, "Ms. An, you’re looking for me?"

An Ge went straight to the point. After she told Qin Lang about Fu Huaijin’s situation, she said:

"You should quickly inform President Huo about this. I’m worried that Madam Fu and Fu Rou might be used by someone to harm Mr. Fu..."

Qin Lang: "Ms. An, President already knows about Mr. Fu’s transfer to another hospital."

An Ge was surprised, "He already knows?"

Qin Lang said, "Yes."

An Ge hurriedly asked, "Then... where is Mr. Fu now?"

Qin Lang replied apologetically:

"Sorry, I can’t disclose that information." He paused, "Ms. An, I have other matters to attend to, so that’s it for now."

After the call ended, Anna, who had contacted Fu Chen, called back.

An Ge answered her call, "What’s the news?"

Anna said, "I’ve reached Assistant Fu. He said that Mr. Fu was transferred to a highly private hospital, but which one it is,

he doesn’t know. However, it’s certain that President Huo seems to have accepted Professor Laura’s treatment plan, and a lung transplant for Mr. Fu is scheduled in the next few days."

An Ge took a deep breath, "Got it."

Anna thought for a moment and said, "Leo, there’s something I forgot to tell you because I was too busy."

An Ge asked, "What is it?"

"A few days ago, President Huo came looking for me."

An Ge frowned, "He came to see you?"

Anna said, "He asked me if you’re Leo, and I denied it. I’m wondering if President Huo is deliberately spreading the news about Professor Laura’s impending surgery for Mr. Fu to force you to admit your identity?"

An Ge was silent, unsure of what to say.

However, she had a vague feeling that Huo Shaoyan might be trying to force her to come to him through this matter.

Thinking of this, An Ge said to Anna, "I... I will go find him."

Anna: "Are you... going to reveal Leo’s identity to him?"

An Ge pressed her lips together and said, "This is a matter of life and death."

"But... haven’t you fallen out with President Huo? I’m worried he won’t treat you nicely..."

"I know."

After ending the call with Anna, An Ge called Huo Shaoyan.

An Ge anticipated that Huo Shaoyan wouldn’t answer her call.

But she didn’t expect that her number had been blocked by him.

This realization, being blocked, made her aware that her relationship with Huo Shaoyan was completely broken.

If someone doesn’t want to see you, seeing them will be even harder than reaching the skies.

By evening, An Ge still hadn’t been able to see Huo Shaoyan.

She used all her resources, yet she couldn’t find out Huo Shaoyan’s current whereabouts.

For three whole days, An Ge couldn’t find any information about Huo Shaoyan.

She didn’t find out about Huo Shaoyan’s whereabouts, but she learned about Fu Rou’s situation.

Fu Rou was desperate to marry Professor Laura, and after being opposed by the Fu Family elders, she attempted suicide by slicing her wrists.

In a fit of anger, Huo Shaoyan sent people to tie up Fu Rou and brought her back to Jingcheng, where she was imprisoned.

Aside from this, Professor Laura was involved in a very serious car accident, resulting in multiple fractures, leaving her bedridden.

An Ge deduced that it was likely Huo Shaoyan who orchestrated the car accident involving Professor Laura.

This indicates that from the beginning, Huo Shaoyan never intended for Professor Laura to treat Fu Huaijin.

Therefore, An Ge felt that Huo Shaoyan would eventually contact Anna.

So, An Ge wasn’t in a rush anymore.

She planned to meet with Anna.

However, it was at this time that Fu Chen found her, saying he had something important to tell her.

They arranged to meet at the hotel café downstairs.

An Ge looked at Fu Chen sitting opposite her, "Assistant Fu, may I get you something to drink?"

Fu Chen ordered a freshly brewed coffee and then said to An Ge, "Ms. An, I have something important to tell you."

An Ge nodded, "Go ahead."

Fu Chen said, "You... you may possibly be Mr. Fu’s biological daughter."

Hearing this, An Ge was taken aback.

Her eyes narrowed sharply, and it took a while before she calmed down and said, "Really?"

Fu Chen said, "That day, before the incident with Mr. Fu, Lady Fu Rou had met him and personally told him that the DNA paternity test sample between him and Qin Xiaoqi had issues.

Fu Rou said that Qin Xiaoqi might be his biological daughter. That night, when Mr. Fu went to see you, it was actually to bring up this matter. But because you told him that Lady Qin Huaisong might still be alive,

Mr. Fu was so agitated by this that he fainted... Now, with Mr. Fu critically ill, I thought, the two people he’s most concerned about are you and Lady Qin Huaisong, so I’ve come to tell you the truth."

An Ge’s mind began to race.

If she was indeed Fu Huaijin’s daughter, then...

So, doesn’t that mean she’s "cousins" with Huo Shaoyan?

An Ge quickly dismissed the thought as it came to her mind.

Suppressing the panic rising in her heart, she pondered a moment and said to Fu Chen:

"Do you... have Mr. Fu’s biological samples?"

Fu Chen looked down and took out a few strands of hair with follicles from a file folder.

He held the samples up in front of An Ge, "These are hair samples with follicles from Mr. Fu."

An Ge took the samples and then said to Fu Chen:

"I will take Mr. Fu’s samples to do a DNA paternity test. Please do not publicize this matter yet."

Fu Chen nodded, "Alright."

An Ge nodded in return and said to Fu Chen, "Do you know where President Huo is staying now?"

As Fu Huaijin’s senior assistant, Fu Chen wielded considerable influence in the Imperial City circle.

After checking his phone, he said to An Ge, "President Huo is at Yuxi Vacation Villa today."

An Ge’s eyes trembled slightly.

With Fu Huaijin now critically ill, logically, Huo Shaoyan has to manage the affairs of the Huo Group and be busy with Fu Group’s projects. It’s least likely he would have the leisure to vacation.

Seeing the confusion in her eyes, Fu Chen quickly explained:

"President Huo has hidden Mr. Fu at Yuxi Vacation Villa, hiring the top medical team in the entire Imperial City for it. Mr. Fu’s condition is currently unstable, and President Huo is worried that something might go wrong during this time, so he’s handling business at the villa."

An Ge nodded and asked, "Alright, got it."

Fu Chen thought for a moment and said to An Ge:

"The Yuxi Vacation Villa project originally belonged to Qin family brother Qin Jingmo. The project was a birthday gift from him to Qin Lao. But after the Qin family incident,

the project eventually ended up in President Huo’s hands after many twists and turns. Afterward, President Huo invested a lot of energy and financial resources to build Yuxi Villa. Since its completion, the villa has always been under military-style management..."

The implication was that it wouldn’t be easy for An Ge to visit Yuxi Vacation Villa.

An Ge naturally understood the underlying message, "Okay, thank you for telling me so much."

After Fu Chen left, An Ge called Anna.

Anna answered her phone, "Leo?"

An Ge said, "You... come with the medical team and accompany me to Yuxi Vacation Villa."

Anna was slightly surprised, "Now?"

An Ge... hesitated.

She sighed and said:

"Not for now, wait for my updates." After a few seconds, "Where are you, I’ll come to find you."

Anna said, "My mom is sick, I’m at the hospital with her."

Anna is actually a native of Imperial City, but after her parents divorced, she followed her father to live abroad, while Anna’s mother remained in the Imperial City and never remarried.

So now, with her mother ill, as the only daughter, Anna couldn’t ignore it.

An Ge understood Anna’s situation and said, "I’ll come to you."

Half an hour later, An Ge met Anna.

Anna’s mother was a painter, and even in a hospital gown lying on the hospital bed, she exuded a rich artistic atmosphere, with a hint of melancholy mixed in.

After setting down the nutritional products she brought, An Ge greeted her.

Anna introduced An Ge to her mother, "This is my friend, An Ge."

Anna’s mother looked at An Ge with a somewhat... focused gaze, and after a while, she said:

"You... look very much like a customer I once painted."

An Ge did not mind this remark.

Anna’s mother continued, "She was also very beautiful."

An Ge couldn’t help but look at her more deeply, "And she... is?"

Anna’s mother said, "I don’t know her name. I only remember that when she came to me for a portrait, she was accompanied by a very handsome gentleman."

Anna’s mother tried hard to recall, and said:

"It’s been over twenty years, my memory isn’t good... The man seemed to have the surname Fu, and they seemed very much in love, probably a couple in the midst of a passionate relationship."

When many coincidences come together, it’s no longer a coincidence.

An Ge pulled up a photo of Fu Huaijin from her phone and held it up in front of Anna’s mother, asking, "Is this the gentleman you mentioned?"

With failing eyesight, Anna’s mother put on her reading glasses, looked earnestly at An Ge’s phone screen for a while, and said:

"I’m not quite sure."

An Ge frowned, "Not quite sure?"

Anna’s mother, Lady Lin, explained:

"Although he looks almost identical, I distinctly remember that gentleman had a red mole below his eye, which the man in the photo you showed me doesn’t have."

They look almost the same, but the facial mark is different.

In this scenario, either Fu Huaijin has a twin brother, or Fu Huaijin later removed that mole.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t make sense.

An Ge then pulled up a photo of Qin Huaisheng and showed it to Lady Lin, "Is this the woman you painted?"

Lady Lin nodded quickly and affirmed:

"Yes, that’s her. She was very beautiful; I’ve never seen a woman with such grace and poise in my life. It was raining that day, and they probably stepped into my gallery on a whim to shelter from the rain."

"The lady was wearing a smoke-blue cheongsam, with very fair and tender skin, and a slender waist, giving her a fragile appearance. Yet despite her delicate appearance, she was quite strong. Inside my gallery, she knocked out an adult man who was harassing her with a single punch. Therefore, she left a particularly deep impression on me."

Hearing this, An Ge could not help but boldly speculate that Fu Huaijin might truly be her biological father.

Moreover, it was certain that Qin Huaisheng and Fu Huaijin were deeply in love back then.

Her emotions were deep and complex, filled with both happiness and melancholy.

The joy was from finally understanding her own origins and knowing who her biological parents were.

The melancholy came from the fact that if there was proof confirming this speculation, she and Huo Shaoyan... would truly have no future together.
