Chapter 54: Chapter 54 Want to Make Him Happy~

Huo Shaoyan couldn’t be bothered to listen to his nonsense, his voice dark and ruthless,

"If I were to assist in doing evil, that would truly be treasonous. Second Uncle Huo, I only refrained from meting out family justice on your account previously because of Second Aunt. If you’re looking to die, I can ensure you have an intact corpse tonight."

He wasn’t joking in the slightest.

He even pulled the trigger, causing Mrs. Huo to scream, "Huo Shaoyan, stop!"

Huo Shaoyan looked up at Mrs. Huo, whose face had paled considerably.

"Look at you. Every time, there’s a lot of noise but little action. Look at how you’ve spoiled Second Uncle Huo. Fortunately, Uncle Fu was quick to act. If they had been late, the Huo Family would have had a scandalous tragedy of one corpse and three lives tonight. Would your face be radiant then, or would mine?"

With those words, Huo Shaoyan bent his long legs to kick Huo Zhendong.

Huo Zhendong, standing at a meter eighty, cowardly hid behind Mrs. Huo the next second.

He believed Mrs. Huo would protect him, and as he hid behind her, he quickly made his complaint,

"Huo Shaoyan, don’t you falsely accuse me. I am indeed attracted to beauty, but that wretched girl An Ge, unwed and pregnant, is beneath me. Even if desperate, I wouldn’t touch her. She invited me to Zizhu Forest... intending to seduce me. Shunzi can testify for me."

As he finished speaking, Huo Shaoyan’s gaze fell on An Ge, who seemed to shrink into herself.

Her hair was disheveled, her eyes were red like a rabbit’s, and her right hand still clenched a bloodied shard of porcelain.

"Did your tongue fall out? Are you mute?"

Huo Shaoyan’s voice was icy cold.

But An Ge didn’t know how to clear her name.

Huo Zhendong was Mrs. Huo’s biological son. If she publicly accused Huo Zhendong of attempting to rape her in front of Mrs. Huo, it would humiliate Mrs. Huo and could end in a family tragedy.

Thinking of this, An Ge could only swallow all her grievances and reluctantly told Huo Shaoyan, "Second Master... didn’t do anything to me..."

Before she could finish her words, the man in front of her swiftly stepped forward and grasped her throat,

"So you’re saying you seduced him?"

An Ge’s neck ached from his grip. She took a deep breath, saying, "No."

Huo Shaoyan laughed angrily at her response.

He released her throat, raised his hand to pat her face, and said in a cold, deep voice, "You’re really cowardly and low!"

Throwing down those words, Huo Shaoyan turned around and left without a backward glance.

Once she saw he had completely left, Mrs. Huo finally let out a long breath.

She hurried to An Ge, speaking earnestly,

"Girl, you’re a good child who understands the bigger picture. You considered sparing my old face by not making a fuss. This is Huo Zhendong’s fault. Don’t worry, I will give you an explanation."

After saying that, Mrs. Huo called Housekeeper Su over and instructed,

"Lock that scoundrel Huo Zhendong in the secret room. Don’t let him see the light for a month."

At those words, Huo Zhendong protested, "Mom, you... you can’t do this to me..."

Before he finished speaking, Mrs. Huo swung her cane, bending his leg in fury,

"What? Would you rather face a bullet than be confined? Or do you really want to spend a few years in prison?"

Huo Zhendong and Shunzi were forcibly subdued by people dispatched by Housekeeper Su, as Shen Hongxiu, who had heard the news, arrived.

Shen Hongxiu had spent a day verifying what An Ge told her in the morning. As An Ge said, Shen Hongxiu’s prolonged infertility was thanks to her biological sister, Shen Hongshu.

Moreover, she discovered Shen Hongshu had an affair with Huo Zhendong.

Therefore, she came not to plead for Huo Zhendong but to tell Mrs. Huo that she wanted a divorce.

Upon entering, she told An Ge, "This has nothing to do with you anymore. You can leave."

An Ge thought she would demand accountability from her for Huo Zhendong’s confinement, but unexpectedly, she said this.

An Ge was slightly stunned, "You... aren’t mad at me?"

Shen Hongxiu looked at her, her voice cold, "Why should I be mad at you? Mad because you’re attractive to men? This isn’t your place to speak, leave."

Though Shen Hongxiu’s words were harsh, An Ge felt they weren’t directed at her.

After saying goodbye to Mrs. Huo, An Ge turned to leave.

She had barely walked a few steps when Shen Hongxiu’s voice speaking to Mrs. Huo reached her ears, "Mom, I need a divorce from Huo Zhendong, and it cannot wait!"

Mrs. Huo was shocked,

"Hong Xiu, do you know what you’re saying? I know Zhendong wronged you, but at your age, getting a divorce, especially with the Shen family now different from before, can they treat you well?

And your Xiu Fang Pavilion business that’s doing well, do you think it can smoothly run without Huo Family’s backing? Even competitors can squeeze it dry."

Whatever else they said, An Ge didn’t hear.

She was unsure if it was due to excessive fright or because she hadn’t eaten anything tonight, but on the way back to the East Garden, she felt dizzy and lightheaded.

Under the hazy moonlight, she appeared thin and fragile.

A gust of wind blew against her, and she couldn’t help but shiver.

She looked up at the crescent moon overhead, her eyes stinging and her nose tingling.

Ugh, she had offended the boss. How was she going to make it up to him?
