Chapter 471: Chapter 471: Shred and Possess

An Ge stayed silent for a while.

After a long pause, she said:

"So, the urgent matter is to figure out who Jerry really is."

Pausing, "Please arrange a car for me. I’m going to find Li Shaosi."

Jiang Fengmian glanced at her: "Not to mention that Li Shaosi is not in Jingcheng, with your current physical condition, you shouldn’t be running around aimlessly."

An Ge: "Li Shaosi isn’t in Jingcheng? I saw him a few days ago..."

Jiang Fengmian: "He took his sister back to the Hai City Li Family. Recently, he and Li Tianjue have been at odds."

An Ge was a bit anxious, "What should we do then?"

Jiang Fengmian: "Jerry’s goal is to get you to donate blood to your mother. You are his strongest card; he won’t really tear up relations, at most, he’ll force you to abort the child."

An Ge: "..."

Aborting the child is still not urgent enough?

Jiang Fengmian: "Your pregnancy is still early stage now, and donating blood once or twice shouldn’t severely impact the child’s development. As long as you supplement your diet, Anna and I will do our best to help you keep the child.

Therefore, first, spend time investigating Jerry. Once we understand his true identity, we can find his weaknesses, and negotiating won’t be difficult. Perhaps, we can even successfully save your mother from him?"

Pausing, he added,

"Regarding the past of your mother Qin Huaisheng’s generation, I believe Fu Huaijin, Mr. Fu, must know. Maybe Mr. Fu knows about Jerry’s background."

Jiang Fengmian’s words gave An Ge some direction.

Fu Huaijin is currently recovering from surgery. Afraid of stressing Fu Huaijin again, An Ge planned to bring up her mother’s matter later.

The immediate concerns are preserving the fetus, enriching the blood, appeasing Jerry, and buying time.

Thinking like this, An Ge’s uneasy heart began to relax.

In the evening, after having dinner at Haitang Garden, she bade farewell to Jiang Fengmian and left Haitang Garden.

Returning to Castle Manor, she recuperated for three days, but still felt an indescribable sense of weakness.

After falling asleep, she suffered from insomnia with many dreams; waking up, she couldn’t muster any energy.

Her whole body seemed to have lost its functions entirely, her spirits low, her mind always drowsy.

Jiang Qingyi, who came to visit her, was worried seeing her gradually thinning appearance.

With deeply furrowed brows,

"I asked Nanny Lin, and she said you’ve been eating well lately, so how come you look even worse than before? Could you be ill without knowing it?"

An Ge said, "It should be caused by pregnancy."

Jiang Qingyi said, "No way. My cousin is almost in her late pregnancy stage; although she constantly complains about the hardships of pregnancy, her spirits are high, staying up all night watching shows without feeling anything. Look at you, like you are possessed by a ghost, lacking energy."

An Ge only felt insomnia with many dreams recently and no strength in her body, without other discomforts.

She frowned, "Does my complexion look that bad?"

Jiang Qingyi quickly pushed a makeup mirror on the dressing table to her, "See for yourself!"

When An Ge saw herself in the mirror, she was indeed startled by her current appearance.

Pale complexion, lifeless eyes, jutting cheekbones, her face slender, only palm-sized.

Jiang Qingyi: "No way, I suspect there’s a Feng Shui problem in your room. I must check it."

Jiang Qingyi has been obsessed with Feng Shui lately, to the extent of carrying a newly acquired Eight Trigram Compass with her.

While speaking, she pulled out the Eight Trigram Compass.

She walked back and forth around the room a few times, speaking with authority:

"The position where your bed is placed is wrong, easily generating negative energy. The dressing table and TV cabinet need to be repositioned, and you need to have a few pots of hydroponic green plants in the room to suppress the generation of negative energy.

This Feng Shui principle emphasizes ’the unity of man and nature’; people and nature need to harmonize. The home setup affects people’s fortune,

especially sensitive groups like pregnant women and fetuses. By adjusting the room’s layout, we can resolve negative energy, enhance positive energy, thereby improving sleep quality and promoting fetal development."

An Ge found her authoritative remarks somewhat amusing.

Resting her chin on her hand, she asked with good cheer, "Does Jiang Fengmian know you’re into Feng Shui lately?"

Jiang Qingyi said, "He and Huo Shaoyan recently fell out. Huo Shaoyan wants to withdraw investment from his projects, and since his project is already halfway through, suddenly losing investment means he has to pull in new investors, leaving him too busy to bother with me at all."

After Jiang Qingyi finished speaking, she hurried downstairs to call people to help An Ge rearrange the room.

When she went downstairs, she happened to see Lin Keke walking in with a bouquet of flowers.

Jiang Qingyi saw her and asked displeased, "Why haven’t you left yet?"

Lin Keke said, "I haven’t fully recovered yet..."

Jiang Qingyi glanced at her but ignored her, starting to gather servants, "You, and you, come upstairs with me to move things."

Speaking, Jiang Qingyi called two maids upstairs.

Lin Keke was curious and followed behind Jiang Qingyi, saying:

"I’ve noticed Ms. An has been in a bad mood lately. She likes flowers, and I specially had someone bring these Golden Tea Flowers from home. Such flowers are rare in the market; I think Ms. An would like them."

Jiang Qingyi glanced at the flowers in Lin Keke’s hands; they were blooming impossibly vibrantly, in clusters, extremely bright.

Not rushing her off, Jiang Qingyi said, "Alright, for the sake of these flamboyant flowers, you can follow upstairs."

However, when Lin Keke saw Jiang Qingyi bringing people to move An Ge’s bed, she could no longer remain calm.

Under Mo Yuan’s instructions, she had placed a bottle of solid fragrance under An Ge’s bed, a fragrance that was colorless and odorless, but visible to the naked eye.

If An Ge discovered it, wouldn’t she be doomed?

Just when Lin Keke was at a loss, Jiang Qingyi curiously asked, "What’s this?"

Speaking, Jiang Qingyi pulled out a palm-sized wooden box from under the bed.

Inside was a half-volatilized transparent solid.

Lin Keke was stunned and quickly said:

"This... seems to be a solid ointment to repel snakes and insects, usually used in spring and summer to ward off mosquitoes. Castle Manor is far from the city, the surrounding environment is quite natural, and there are many snakes and insects. Xiao Hui almost got bitten by a snake two days ago."

Upon saying this, she quickly spoke to a maid upstairs helping, "Xiao Hui, am I right?"

The one called Xiao Hui was indeed almost bitten by a snake two days ago.

She nodded at this moment and said:

"Yes, Miss. I almost got bitten by a snake two days ago. However, none of us have seen this solid ointment before, it’s likely formulated by Mr. Gu especially for you."

The "Mr." mentioned by Xiao Hui refers to Gu Changfeng.

An Ge didn’t think much about it. She glanced at Lin Keke at this moment, "Why did you come up here?"

Seeing that An Ge was not pursuing the matter, Lin Keke quickly handed the Golden Tea Flower she brought to An Ge and said:

"I noticed you’ve been feeling down lately, so I came specially to check on you."

An Ge’s expression was indifferent: "You are considerate."

An Ge didn’t take the flower, "However, I’ve been allergic to pollen recently."

The implication being, take your flower away, I don’t need it.

Lin Keke wasn’t embarrassed despite being refused, and she said, "Alright, then I won’t disturb your conversation with Miss Jiang."

After saying this, Lin Keke took the opportunity to steal back the solid perfume casually placed aside by Jiang Qingyi.

After hurrying downstairs and returning to her room, Lin Keke made a phone call to Mo Yuan,

"Ms. Mo, I have something to report to you."

Today was originally Mo Yuan and Huo Shaoyan’s wedding, but the wedding was postponed due to Mrs. Huo’s strong intervention.

Moreover, Mo Yuan hasn’t seen Huo Shaoyan for two days straight.

She’s feeling anxious all over now.

She worries not only about Huo Shaoyan’s attitude changing towards her, but also fears punishment from Jerry for her inefficiencies.

Thus, when Lin Keke called her, her attitude was very harsh, "What is it?"

Lin Keke recounted the whole story to Mo Yuan and said:

"Ms. An almost discovered that solid perfume. I’ve now taken it back and destroyed it."

Mo Yuan said, "Your ability to adapt to the situation is impressive, I indeed didn’t misjudge you."

Lin Keke asked, "Now that the perfume is destroyed, what should I do next? Should I continue targeting An Ge’s unborn child?"

Mo Yuan contemplated for a moment, "We don’t need to do anything to the child in her womb anymore." Paused briefly, "Even if it’s born, it probably won’t be healthy."

Lin Keke: "Alright."

Mo Yuan: "Continue monitoring her every word and action, wait for my orders."

"Yes."

After ending the call with Lin Keke, Madam Mo cheerfully knocked on Mo Yuan’s bedroom door and said:

"Yuanyuan, President Huo has come to see you, quickly come downstairs with mom."

Upon hearing this, Mo Yuan’s mood instantly turned bright.

She hurriedly put down her phone and looked at Madam Mo, "What did you say?"

Madam Mo walked up to her, smiling:

"I said, President Huo has come to see you. He also brought a big bouquet of roses, says he’s here to apologize to you."

These past few days, because of Mrs. Huo’s intervention, Huo Shaoyan hasn’t come to see Mo Yuan for two or three days.

Mo Yuan has been anxious for several days, even wondering if the Heartless Poison she’s used on Huo Shaoyan has failed.

It now seems she’s overthought it.

Mo Yuan quickly got up, headed to the dressing room, and asked Madam Mo who followed her,

"Mom, what should I wear when I see him later?"

Madam Mo said to her:

"All men are the same, they only like two types of women: the kind who look like young women, and those with a girlish vibe. You’ve been separated from Huo Shaoyan for several days, just put a little effort into dressing yourself up, you’ll surely succeed in getting him to stay over tonight."

As she spoke, Madam Mo picked a bright red qipao from the dressing room.

This qipao, Mo Yuan planned to wear on her wedding night with Huo Shaoyan. The slit of the qipao extends up to the thigh, making it look very seductive when worn.

Madam Mo held the qipao up to Mo Yuan’s body and said, "Wear this. Not only does it complement your skin tone, but it also highlights your figure. Your proportions are great, just a bit small-chested. If you wear this qipao, men will surely love it."

Mo Yuan thought for a moment and said, "No way, Huo Shaoyan dislikes vulgar outfits..."

Madam Mo interrupted her, "If a man truly loves you, he won’t be able to resist, and wants to possess you. How could he disdain your outfit as vulgar?"

...

Meanwhile, downstairs.

Sitting on the sofa, Huo Shaoyan’s phone vibrated; it was Jiang Qingyi calling.

He furrowed his thick, black eyebrows slightly, hesitated for a while before answering Jiang Qingyi’s call, "What’s up?"

His voice was cold and detached.

Jiang Qingyi got angry upon hearing it and said furiously:

"Huo Shaoyan, do you even have a heart? Let me tell you, if you keep this up, An Ge will sooner or later be in trouble..."

The man’s voice was low, carrying a hint of undefined emotion, "What’s wrong with her?"

Jiang Qingyi shouted angrily, "What’s wrong with her? She’s dying, do you know that?"
