Childe Wuji

After a night of indulgence, An Ge became pregnant with the powerful and influential Mr. Huo's child.
During the pregnancy, the powerful man frequently drew her blood.
In order to save her life and protect the child in her womb, she shocked everyone by saying, "Mr. Huo, I'm carrying your child!"
The man sneered, "Are you trying to blackmail me or do you wish to die? If so, I'll grant your wish!"
Disheartened, she faked her death and fled with the child.
Later, that man, who was always cold and harsh to her, knelt before her grave for three days and nights.
Later still, word somehow got out that she faked her death, and he became enraged, locking down the globe in a frenzy to find her.
Finally, one day, he cornered her at a wedding, furiously roaring, "You can't marry him, I'm the real father of the child!"
An Ge squinted and smiled slightly, "Sorry, who are you?"
In the time that followed, he humbled himself into the dust, every night kneeling in front of her bed, begging, "Miss An, please marry me."

Disheartened, I Fled from the CEO with Our Babies

As they spoke, Shen Hongxiu arrived. Shen Hongxiu wore a modified traditional Chinese blue cheongsam, styled her hair in a nostalgic bun, and adorned herself only with a jade pendant around her neck, without any other trimmings. Yet somehow, she still gave off an illusion of being both opulently adorned and elegantly composed.


After she walked over to greet Mrs. Huo and took her seat, Huo Shaoyan, who had previously been sitting casually, straightened up. An Ge noticed how his whole demeanor suddenly seemed more upright and proper. She heard him greet Shen Hongxiu with particular respect, "Auntie, I heard your old leg problem flared up recently. Is it any better now?"


Shen Hongxiu never had children of her own and only had an adopted daughter. She personally took care of Huo Shaoyan when he was young, so she treated him as if he were her own son. Her attitude toward him was especially affectionate.
