273 Yousre the Only One I Adore 6 (2/2)
”Even if she can't, the fact that she's close to Gu Beicheng alone is a huge disadvantage to you. Don't you realize how evil she is?” Chi Rui'er remarked. Needless to say, Gu Dongcheng was definitely not aware that Chi Rui'er had long treated An Xiaoning as her arch nemesis.
”You really can't tell good from bad. If you're so high and mighty, don't go seeking help from her when our son runs a high fever.”
”Does the child belong to only me?”
Gu Dongcheng could not be bothered to argue with her and decided to go to sleep instead.
Chi Rui'er was filled with frustration. She simply could not stand having to take care of the child every day, which took up the bulk of her time.
”Hubby, why don't you look for two babysitters to take care of our son tomorrow? It's too tiring for me to handle it alone.”
”At the beginning, I suggested that we hire babysitters to help you, but didn't you insist on taking care of him yourself just so you could shower him with your motherly love?”Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
Pouting her lips, Chi Rui'er answered in frustration, ”I said that casually, but you actually took it for real. Can't you just be empathetic and understanding towards my plight?”
”I still have to go to work tomorrow morning. Must you really keep me awake and disturb me like this?”
Chi Rui'er kept quiet and coaxed her son to sleep.
After painstakingly putting her son to sleep, she began to be aware of how sore and achy her muscles were. She then headed to the bathroom to brush her teeth. Staring at her reflection in the mirror, she realized that her hair was in a complete mess and her eye bags were dark and heavy. She had become so haggard and dishevelled that she almost could not recognize herself.
Touching her face with her hands, Chi Rui'er decided that she must hire a babysitter as soon as possible. She'd lose all her radiance and beauty, should this go on.
She frantically put on a sheet of facial mask in a bid to stop her skin condition from deteriorating.
Chi Rui'er laid in bed while holding her mobile phone in her hand. She could not help but feel enthralled at the thought of An Xiaoning being in prison.
As soon as she heard about the incident An Xiaoning had met with, she proceeded to spread the news online using an anonymous account she created. However, to her disappointment, she could not find any data when she searched the keyword ”An Xiaoning” in every possible form, be it Chinese characters, pinyin, or both. She soon realized that every single piece of information related to An Xiaoning was being automatically erased from the internet as soon as it was uploaded.
Thus, she had never succeeded in spreading the news online.
Everything she uploaded would be deleted almost instantly.
She was utterly dejected and helpless.
She decided to make do and leave it be, thinking that An Xiaoning would be tortured in prison for a long while more anyway.

It was 11 o'clock in the evening.
The group of six made their way to old Mrs. Jin's tomb.
They scanned their surroundings and saw that the graveyard was made up of the graves of all the ancestors of the Jin family.
It was not exactly a joyous and relaxing activity to visit the graveyard at such a late hour.
They were granted access to the graveyard and arrived at old Mrs. Jin's tomb after guiding themselves with a torchlight each.
An Xiaoning first offered the gifts before burning the incense.
She bowed to the grave and began chanting softly.
She then picked up a pile of amulets she had written the night before and scattered the amulets across old Mrs. Jin's tomb.
While An Xiaoning continued to chant a spell with her eyes closed, several pieces of amulets began to hover in the sky and revolved continuously around old Mrs. Jin's tomb.
It was Xu Yang's first time witnessing such a phenomenon, though not for the other four colleagues since they had already seen something similar during Wang Fangfang's case.
”Old Madam, this is Xiaoning. I know you have suffered a great grievance, but if you are present at this very moment, please tell me, who was the one who caused you such harm? The police and I will definitely give you justice.”
