“What do you mean?” Bu Xianxian questioned, staring at her.
“Didn’t you two already break up? Why are you together again?”
Feeling a little tense, Bu Xianxian retorted, “That’s our business, stay out of it. Stop being so nosy and scram.”
An Xiaoning shrugged her shoulders and said nonchalantly, “Oh, good luck.”
After watching her leave, Bu Xianxian held onto Shi Shaochuan’s arm and said, “She’s so annoying.”
“Hasn’t she always been very annoying? Just ignore her. Are you done yet?” Shi Shaochuan asked calmly.
“Yeah, almost.”
“Let’s go, then.” Shi Shaochuan proceeded to pay for their items at the supermarket’s counter. They exited to see that An Xiaoning was standing in front of her car and drinking some water while staring at them.
“Shi Shaochuan.”
“What do you want?” Shi Shaochuan asked indifferently.
“I’d like to give you an honest piece of advice. Would you like to hear it?”
“Save it.”
An Xiaoning answered, “Sure, if you say so. However, don’t you notice how you’ve been feeling very uncomfortable lately?”
She walked toward the driver’s seat in a bid to leave. Just as she was about to enter, Shi Shaochuan stopped her. “Wait a minute.”
She rolled down the window and said, “Speak.”
“Were you able to tell something?”
Bu Xianxian frantically interjected, “An Xiaoning, quit trying to swindle us. We won’t fall for your tricks.”
“Bu Xianxian, you’re really something, huh?” An Xiaoning leaned back sluggishly and stared at the two of them. She continued, “Shi Shaochuan, I wasn’t going to be kind and tell you what’s going on with your body because you’re an evildoer. However, it just so happens that the person who did it to you is Bu Xianxian, the woman I detest the most. After weighing the pros and cons, I decided that I really don’t want to see her living so leisurely. Shi Shaochuan, there’s someone on your back.”
“Someone on my back? Who?”
She smiled and said, “What do you think? Figure it out yourself.”
She rolled the window up and drove away.
Shi Shaochuan stood rooted to the ground before turning to look at Bu Xianxian. “Did she mean that you’re up to something?” he questioned.
Bu Xianxian eagerly explained, “Shaochuan, don’t believe her nonsense, alright? It’s obviously not me. I’m not that capable, don’t malign me. I just have a feud with her. Didn’t you hear what she said about not wanting me to live a carefree life? That damned An Xiaoning. All she does is spout nonsense and frighten the public. Don’t believe her. She’s just out to make our life difficult.”
“How did she know that I’m feeling unwell, then?”
“You look so pale. Anyone can tell that you’re unwell. Shaochuan, you mustn’t believe her words,” said Bu Xianxian.
Feeling an immense headache, Shi Shaochuan remained quiet and got inside the car straight away while Bu Xianxian got inside the passenger seat.
He began driving toward the Shi family mansion.
The pair barely spoke to each other throughout the journey home, during which Shi Shaochuan struggled to drive while trying to bear with the discomfort. As soon as he arrived home, he lay down in bed and dozed off. Bu Xianxian sat on the bed, and her lips curled into a sinister smile.
She wished she could hammer An Xiaoning to death, at the thought of the latter almost foiling her plans.
Fortunately for her, Shi Shaochuan did not seem to have suspected anything.
On the other hand, An Xiaoning constantly pondered over the scene that she had witnessed at the supermarket earlier. There was a ghost child riding on Shi Shaochuan’s back, and she knew exactly who the culprit was. I really couldn’t tell that Bu Xianxian would actually resort to black magic.
However, she’s going to face dire consequences if she doesn’t treat the ghost child well enough.
Is she really aware about what the rules are?
That silly and stupid woman.
It’s akin to selling her soul to the ghost child in exchange for its help.
It was an equal trade-off.
I really wonder what she’s up to.
From the way I see it, it just seems like she’s trying to continue sponging off Shi Shaochuan, nothing more than that.
Whatever, it has nothing to do with me anyway.
Everyone has their own predestined fate.
The heavily pregnant Jin Qingyue arrived in the afternoon.
Since she was almost due, she had already decorated the nursery. However, she had yet to buy any clothes for the baby and planned to ask An Xiaoning to accompany her to go shopping. An Xiaoning agreed because she had some free time to spare.
Wu Lianzhi tagged along as well and was mainly in charge of driving and carrying the items. They initially wanted to ask Henry along. However, An Xiaoning decided not to after some consideration, thinking to herself that the ill-tempered Henry would definitely be unwilling to help with carrying the shopping bags.
Little did she know, Henry was terribly upset about being left out.
Jin Qingyue combed her hair and allowed them to hang by the sides of her face, allowing it to cover her chubbiness. She had also developed some pigments on her face due to her pregnancy. To make matters worse, she could not use any cosmetic products to conceal the blemishes since they would affect her fetus. Hence, her complexion had become rather dull.
However, there was no change to her graceful aura.
She made her way down the stairs slowly and carefully, fearing that she would fall because she could not see her feet, which were obstructed by her baby bump. Hence, An Xiaoning decided to walk behind her and keep a lookout.
Wu Lianzhi drove while the two of them sat together in the backseat.
The ride to the shopping mall was smooth and steady.
The shopping mall belonged to the Jin Corporation.
An Xiaoning and Jin Qingyue had only been there a few times. They alighted from the car, clad in caps and surgical masks, for they did not want the media to make a big fuss about Jin Qingyue’s bare face, should the paparazzi snap any photos of them. Furthermore, Jin Qingyue had planned to pay for everything she was to buy and did not want the cashiers to make any compromises just because the mall belonged to her brother. Hence, a simple disguise would save them some time and trouble.
The three of them entered through the automatic door and proceeded to the maternity and child-wear department after checking the directions.
The sales assistant could not help but take a few more glances at Wu Lianzhi, who was not wearing a mask.
He said, “Show us all the best products and clothing for baby boys.”
“All?” the sales assistant asked, dumbfounded.
“Yes, all of the best ones. Let us pick some out.”
The sales assistant frantically called for the manager to help her with carrying all the products.
“These are everything we have. Please take a look.”
“You may leave it here.” Wu Lianzhi then said to the two women, “You guys, take your pick.”
Jin Qingyue picked up the clothes and smiled, and so did An Xiaoning. They could not help but feel like their maternal instincts had been invoked.
“I don’t think he can wear everything. Qingyue, let’s just pick out the ones that we like. You don’t have to buy so many sets.”
“Of course. Infants tend to grow up really quickly and he won’t be able to wear them for long. I’ll just pick out the ones that I like,” said Jin Qingyue, who then proceeded to pick out a few outfits of different sizes.
