“Really? Sis, where did you buy this?”

“I didn’t buy it. It can’t be bought from stores.” An Xiaoning removed her mask and put on a beauty serum facial mask onto her actual skin. “It was given to me by someone in the Autumn Palace, the only person there who can help me. This is a good solution. I’ll get to find out everything I need to, as long as I can get near Tuoba Rui and Shi Xiaoyu when they’re asleep. However, I would first have to be able to enter their sleeping area. So, my plan is to take action during the presidential election next month,” she continued, sitting cross-legged on the bed.

“Sis, there are so many infrared beam detectors and surveillance cameras in there. You have to be very careful. Be cautious at all times,” Mei Yangyang cautioned worriedly.

“I know. By the way, Mo Li gave me a call the other day. It was so bizarre and out of the blue.”

Mei Yangyang explained briefly about Mo Li’s situation and looked at An Xiaoning calmly. “I wonder if she can really conceive a boy by altering her fate. I doubt it, though.”

“It’s not that easy to alter your fate. Besides, Yangyang, do you know what it means if she manages to alter it successfully?” An Xiaoning asked, hugging her knees.

Mei Yangyang immediately tensed up upon hearing her words.

“It’s difficult for Mo Li to conceive because of her poor health, but I don’t know if it has gotten better now after treatment and proper nourishment. Heaven has blessed her with four daughters in her life, including the one she had aborted due to a deformity. Heaven will forgive her for that since it was necessary. However, now that she has altered her fate to beg for a son, she would have to strike a deal with Heaven and give up something in exchange.”

Greatly taken aback, Mei Yangyang asked, “Sis, what are the conditions for exchanging a son?”

“Make a guess.” An Xiaoning lay down in bed with two pillows beside her and continued, “There are many infertile couples who go to the temple to beg for a child. Those are truly childless, unlike her. Heaven will be displeased at her greedy request since she’s already blessed with so many children in her life.”

Mei Yangyang could not guess what the conditions were, though she had a hunch that it would be ominous.

“Sis, Mo Li seems really pitiful. Could you give her a hand?”

An Xiaoning looked up and said, “How am I supposed to help her? Not to mention, we’re only platonic friends. Even if we were really close, there’s no way since she’s too soft-hearted and submissive. She doesn’t want a divorce and yet she can’t give birth to a son. It’s inevitable for her to be treated that way by her mother-in-law. People always say that your personality decides your destiny. I find that that saying does make a lot of sense. Do you know how many women in this world are like Mo Li?”

Shaking her head, Mei Yangyang answered, “No.”

“There’s a minority of women in this world who are just like Mo Li. This is not a family issue or a political problem. She’s one of those women who forgive their abusive husbands easily after being coaxed and sweet-talked. They tend to give in to their husbands’ tyrannical ways and choose to forgive them time after time for the sake of their children. Whenever they threaten to get a divorce, they’ll become soft-hearted and drop the idea once their husbands show a tinge of remorse and guilt. The outcome is always the same. This is a common problem amongst these women,” An Xiaoning said indifferently.

“She doesn’t have a choice, actually. Ye Xiaotian was so restrictive toward her before they got married...”

“Let’s not talk about the past. Take the current situation for example. She has the option to divorce him now, but why didn’t she do so? It’s precisely because she had already fallen in love with Ye Xiaotian and can’t bear to give her child up.”

Mei Yangyang lay down beside her and put one leg over another. “Sis, you love Mr. Jin and Yiheng too. How did you manage to just divorce him so straightforwardly? Was Mr. Jin just as unhesitant too?”

“He insisted on getting a divorce, like how I did during our first divorce. I understand how he feels. But I can’t forgive him for it.”

Tears began to well up in her eyes instantly. She turned to look at Mei Yangyang and said, “I used to think that our relationship was strong enough to overcome any obstacle and withstand the test of whatever comes our way. But I guess that was just wishful thinking on my part. Since he doesn’t trust me, there’s no point in forcing it. Besides, I’ve never needed a man to feel safe. I can continue to live well even without him.”

Mei Yangyang held her hand and laid her head on her shoulder. “Sis, I doubt you’d believe in marriage again, right?”

“If I ever meet a man in the future whom I adore, we’ll just date and live together. Don’t talk to me about marriage again. I don’t need it.”

A teardrop streamed down An Xiaoning’s face as she continued, “I’ve thought about it carefully before. Humans are creatures who yearn and need to be loved. I still do believe in true love and hope to meet a man who truly understands me. He doesn’t have to be wealthy or extremely good-looking. As long as I fancy him and he knows me well, it’s good enough.”

“I thought you wouldn’t believe in men anymore, Sis.”

“It’s not that drastic yet. You can’t possibly develop a fear of walking just because you stepped on some poop along the way, can you?” said An Xiaoning, sounding much more relaxed.

When she got a divorce with Jin Qingyan, she initially thought that she would remain alone for the rest of her life. But then again, how sad would that be...

She did not wish to live like that.

Amused by her words, Mei Yangyang chirped, “You’re right, Sis. I’m glad to know that you think that way. One should always look forward in life. Take Qingyue, for example. She’s getting along so well with Mr. Ling. She’s finally found her true love.”

An Xiaoning wiped away the teardrop on her face and looked at Mei Yangyang while smiling. “If I ever look for a man again, I’m not going to be with an intelligent one. Smart men are too complicated to deal with.”

“Mr. Gu ultimately failed to win your heart despite having carried a torch for you for so many years. Will there really be another man who can win you over in the future?”

“There will be, for sure. My life is not going to stop advancing after Jin Qingyan. I believe in fate. What’s destined to be mine will come to me sooner or later,” An Xiaoning said unwaveringly.

“...”

Mei Yangyang had made Long Tianze jealous by ditching him and their children to hang out with her sworn sister.

Upon hearing that Mei Yangyang and An Xiaoning were planning to visit the Black Genie Bar that night, Long Tianze immediately persuaded his friends, Jin Qingyan, and Ling Ciye to go together with him.

Meanwhile, he left the children at home to read some comics or play some video games.

Thus, the three men stepped into the Black Genie Bar, where the pair of sworn sisters were leaning against the railing on the second floor to watch the ongoing pole dance performance on stage on the first floor.

They sat down naturally at their usual spot the moment they entered.

The waiter soon served the drinks. Long Tianze scanned his surroundings and finally laid his eyes upon the railing area on the second floor.

The two women were standing there, each with a glass of liquor in their hands, and were yet to discover their presence.

Long Tianze placed his arms on the couch and said with a smile, “Don’t stand on ceremony with me. There’s plenty of alcohol here. Drink to your hearts’ content.”

“No one’s standing on ceremony with you. Qingyan, order the most expensive alcohol and make him feel the pinch,” Ling Ciye teased while filling their glasses to the brim.

They clinked glasses with each other and chugged the liquor down in one sitting.

Just as they raised their glasses, Jin Qingyan pause and shifted his gaze to the silhouette on the second floor, which belonged to a familiar woman. He could recognize her right away even though she was wearing a mask.

The moment he put down his glass, Jin Qingyan turned to Long Tianze and said, “I heard you have some pretty and innocent-looking babes here. Call a few here to accompany us.”
