Chapter 478: Chapter 478 I Love You

Huo Shaoyan: "You can understand it that way."

An Ge laughed.

She finally believed in the power of the Heartless Poison that Mo Yuan talked about.

"Ms. An, why are you laughing?"

An Ge rested her chin on her hand, looked at him, and said:

"Today, Ms. Mo Yuan not only bragged about your passionate love last night but also told me something else."

The man frowned and asked: "What was it?"

An Ge looked at his brows and eyes and said: "She said she put the Heartless Poison on you..."

After An Ge explained the potency of the Heartless Poison to Huo Shaoyan word by word, she said:

"So, even so, do you still intend to continue indulging Ms. Mo?"

The man looked at her, remained silent for almost half a minute, and then gave his answer,

"I believe she was coerced by Jerry and had no choice but to use the curse on me. Her goal was to survive; people will use any means to live; it’s human nature. I... don’t hold it against her."

An Ge had nothing to say.

The current Huo Shaoyan has already become obsessed.

An Ge licked her lips and said:

"Since your feelings for Ms. Mo are unwavering, I have nothing more to say. Let’s talk about business then."

Huo Shaoyan nodded in agreement and said:

"Jerry wants your blood, so use this reason to invite him out, and the rest I will discuss with him."

An Ge asked: "What will you discuss with him?"

Huo Shaoyan said: "That’s my concern."

After saying this, he stood up.

He looked at An Ge sitting on the sofa, his gaze settled on her slightly bulging belly, and with a meaningful hint, he said:

"Ms. An, to be honest, after last night’s intimacy with you, I’m certain I must have deeply loved you before. It’s just a pity; we are destined but not fated."

An Ge didn’t respond to his words but asked: "When can I call Huanhuan and Huai Shang?"

"After we get rid of the barrier that is Jerry." Huo Shaoyan quickly gave his answer, "You wouldn’t want our child to become Jerry’s leverage, would you?"

An Ge pressed her lips together in agreement, "Fine."

Huo Shaoyan nodded and then turned and left.

His departure was decisive, completely opposite to the passion he had when holding her last night.

An Ge felt lonely in her heart and somewhat unwilling.

If Huo Shaoyan truly didn’t love her anymore, then so be it.

The problem was, it was Mo Yuan making him this way.

Perhaps because of a trace of unwillingness in her heart or perhaps trying to awaken his dormant rationality.

Before Huo Shaoyan completely left the hall, she stopped him, "President Huo."

The man paused slightly at her voice.

He turned his head and looked at her, "Ms. An, is there anything else?"

An Ge said: "Last night you asked me if this child in my belly is a boy or a girl, now I can tell you, she is a girl."

This time the man turned around, his gaze once again falling on her slightly bulging belly.

Quite a while later, he asked: "When is the next prenatal check-up?"

An Ge stood up at this moment.

She walked up to him, raised her head, looked into his dark eyes, and said: "Next Wednesday."

The woman raised her chin at him, her small palm-sized face was delicate and vibrant, her beautiful almond eyes stared at him without blinking as if expecting him to have some response.

She was very beautiful.

However, she was not nearly as beautiful as when she was in bed with him.

That was the most beautiful he had ever seen her.

Possessing the charm of a mature woman, she also had the pure and alluring beauty of a young girl.

Huo Shaoyan looked into her eyes, a slight movement in his mind, his hand grasped her waist, pulling her gently closer into his embrace.

He leaned down slightly, turned his head, and whispered into her ear, "Ms. An, do you hope I accompany you to the prenatal check-up?"

His lips touched her soft ear, causing An Ge to shiver from head to toe.

Her body almost lost its steadiness, she hurriedly reached out and grabbed his arm.

She looked at him with a seemingly charming tone: "Yes, so President Huo, will you accompany me for the check-up?"

Huo Shaoyan watched her lips glimmering with moisture, his throat moved slightly twice, and then he said:

"My fiancée wouldn’t be happy."

An Ge raised her hand and pinched his chest,

"If you don’t accompany me, I won’t be happy. Do you not care at all about my unhappiness?"

An Ge realized, if Huo Shaoyan continued to be under Mo Yuan’s control, not only would Huo Shaoyan be doomed, but even the Huo Group and the Huo Family might follow suit to disaster.

If Huo Shaoyan were to fall, it wouldn’t be good for her children.

She would not allow such a thing to happen.

So, she wanted to take Huo Shaoyan back from Mo Yuan’s grasp.

Only then might everything return to normal.

"President Huo, you were completely correct in one thing you said last night. A woman who is willing to bear and raise children with a man for six years must truly love him..."

An Ge spoke soulful words with the gentlest voice, "President Huo, I still love you."

Huo Shaoyan’s Phoenix Eyes narrowed.

He looked unspokenly at the woman’s fair and clean face, also at her clear almond eyes, "Still love me?"

He said thus, then followed up with the question, "If you still love me, why did you divorce me?"

An Ge adopted a pitiful look, her eyes reddened, tears instantly filled her gaze.

She looked at him with an extremely aggrieved tone and said:

"Because I still love you, I cannot tolerate you being involved with other women. We divorced because Mo Yuan interfered, bringing your so-called son into the picture.

If I had known the truth at that time, known that her son had nothing to do with you, I wouldn’t have divorced you."

The man pondered her words, "Really?"

An Ge looked at him with tears in her eyes,

"That’s one reason. Another part of the reason is that Mo Yuan threatened me with my mother Qin Huaisheng’s whereabouts, I... had no choice.

President Huo, even though I divorced you, I still refused to terminate our child. Isn’t that proof that I truly love you?"

Huo Shaoyan looked deeply into her eyes at this moment.

He had a profound feeling.

He felt that apart from himself,

he couldn’t easily trust anyone now.

Whether it’s Mo Yuan or the woman in front of him.

Are they both using him?

But looking at her crying, his heart ached.

Mo Yuan would cry for him as well.

When Mo Yuan cried for him, it only made him irritable and even gave him a headache.

Pain and irritation are different emotions.

The former leads to compassion; the latter causes suffering.

Huo Shaoyan’s mind moved slightly, he cupped her face, his fingertip brushing over her reddened eyelids,

"Ms. An, wipe away your tears. You keep crying like this; it makes me very uncomfortable."

An Ge raised her head, looking at his furrowed brow, her long and thick eyelashes fluttered gently a few times,

"Makes you uncomfortable?"

"Yes."

Huo Shaoyan looked into her still reddened eyes and saw her tears clinging to her lashes.

He wanted to say something to comfort her slightly agitated emotions.

But, at that moment, his phone rang.

It was Mo Yuan calling.

Huo Shaoyan released his hand from An Ge’s cheek, answering Mo Yuan’s call right in front of An Ge.

Mo Yuan’s voice soon came through the phone, "Ah Yan, did you go to see Ms. An?"

Huo Shaoyan did not deny it.

He acknowledged with a hum, softly asking, "What’s wrong?"

On the other end, Mo Yuan’s fingers tightened slightly, she tried to speak calmly:

"The owner of the wedding studio called me; he said the samples of our wedding photos are ready and asked us to find some time to choose...

I wanted to ask you, if you still want to marry me, I hope you can accompany me to choose the photos."

Huo Shaoyan didn’t hesitate about this, and quickly gave his answer: "I’ll come over later. Let’s go to the bridal shop together."

Mo Yuan did not let it go at that.

She spoke up at this time, asking, "Can I ask why you went to see Ms. An?"

Huo Shaoyan slightly narrowed his eyes, "Last night, I slept with her."

Huo Shaoyan bluntly revealed this, causing Mo Yuan’s heart to instantly tense.

Besides that, she felt a surge of jealousy.

Clearly, Huo Shaoyan was already affected by the Two-headed Worm Curse, and last night under such circumstances he didn’t touch her, but went to An Ge to relieve himself instead.

It shows what place An Ge holds in the man’s heart.

Mo Yuan took a deep breath, holding back her emotions, saying, "I already know about this."

Pausing for a moment, her voice carried a hint of sorrow and anger, questioning,

"Did you tell me because you feel guilty towards me?"

The man quickly answered her question:

"I feel somewhat sorry, but guilt—not exactly. Before this, due to various reasons, you hid your son’s identity from me,

I haven’t directly discussed this issue with you, but I really dislike that you deceived and even used me.

Now, although I feel some regret about being with another woman, if you can’t accept or choose not to forgive, you can consider breaking up..."

Before he could finish his words, Mo Yuan interrupted him in a fit of emotion, "No. I won’t break up with you."

Mo Yuan realized her agitation, took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and replied quietly:

"Because I love you, I can forgive you this once. But I hope this is the last time, the only time, can it be?"

Her last three words "can it be?" carried a sob.

Huo Shaoyan heard that sound, and his head throbbed faintly.

It seemed that if he didn’t agree, his whole head would feel like it’s splitting, unbearably painful.

So, he quickly responded to Mo Yuan: "Okay."

Mo Yuan let out a deep breath upon receiving his affirmative answer.

She asked, "When will you be back?"

Huo Shaoyan: "I’ll be back shortly."

Mo Yuan added, "You still haven’t said why you went to see Ms. An?"

Huo Shaoyan: "I went to see Ms. An... to discuss the matter of the child in her womb."

Mo Yuan’s heart tightened again, "I don’t quite understand. Previously, you didn’t care much about this, right?"

Her voice held a hint of caution, "You said that you and Ms. An are already divorced, whether she has the child or not has nothing to do with you."

Huo Shaoyan: "Times change. In a broken marriage, the child is the most innocent victim. I don’t want my child to be a tragedy as soon as they’re born."

Mo Yuan didn’t quite understand this,

"You don’t want your child to be a tragedy at birth? You mean you went to see Ms. An hoping she would terminate this pregnancy..."

"No."

The man’s voice quickly hit Mo Yuan’s eardrums,

"I want the child in her womb to be born safely, and I want custody of the child."
