623 The Secret About the Past 241 (1/2)

He was probably curious about why she had to put on a mask to enter the Autumn Palace, right?

And he probably had many questions he wanted to ask her as well, hadn't he?

”Sister Xiaoning, come with me. I have something to ask you.” Lin Shishi dragged her upstairs.

When they arrived at her bedroom, An Xiaoning asked once they went in, ”What's the matter?”

Lin Shishi made her sit down and asked with her warm smiling eyes, ”My wonderful sister, will you help me see how my marriage will turn out?”

An Xiaoning looked at her in a serious manner. ”Shishi, I don't suggest that you have it read. Because if it turns out that it's good, you'll be happy, but if it's not, you'll be hung up about it. Life is meant to be experienced. It's only after you've experienced it that you won't come to regret it. Right?”

”I was just curious. But since Sister said this, then I won't ask anymore.”

”Is His Highness good to you?”

Lin Shishi nodded shyly. ”Yes, he's wonderfully obedient to me in every way.”

”Then what do you have to worry about? Live well with him and don't overthink.”

Her reassurance indeed made Lin Shishi feel much better.

”Umm, I'll listen to you, Sister.”

”I think the Prince is a decent person, and you're such a sensible and cute person, so there won't be much problem.”

”I hope so. For now, we're getting along quite well, and there's a child in my stomach as well, which also puts me in a better position.” As she spoke of this, her face was glowing up in evident happiness.

”That's good. Sister is happy for you.” An Xiaoning took a look at the time and remarked, ”It's getting late, I'll be going back first. The next time you come back, we'll catch up again, okay?”

”Alright. Drive safely on the road, Sister.”

”I will.”

When An Xiaoning went downstairs, she did not see Tuoba Gucheng and thought that it was the perfect moment to leave.

After greeting everyone goodbye and rejecting her parents' offers to send her home, she carried her bag and walked out.

Quickening her pace as she walked toward her car, she could then finally heave a sigh of relief after she got inside.

Her car slowly pulled out of the Lin residence's front gate.

When she had driven a distance away, she noticed through the rear mirror that a car was following behind.

An Xiaoning slowed down her car speed, and when the car behind did the same, she could suddenly guess who was seated in the car.

She began to step harder on the gas pedal to accelerate the car.

The car behind started accelerating as well and, not long after, a car ahead successfully blocked An Xiaoning's car from speeding away while the car behind quickly blocked her.

Her Ferrari became sandwiched between two cars.

An Xiaoning immediately pushed her car door open and got down. She glanced at the car ahead and headed toward it.

The car door opened, and Tuoba Gucheng, who was seated inside, said in his deep voice, ”Get on.”

An Xiaoning did not move and merely uttered, ”I don't think there's a need. Your Highness, what is the reason you are blocking my car at this time of the night?”

”If you don't mind talking to me like this, I can stay here to talk with you until dawn.”

An Xiaoning remained fearless and remarked, ”Then I can only get my godparents and Shishi here, just to find out what exactly Your Highness wants.”

She fished out her phone and was about to make a call. Tuoba Gucheng did not expect that she'd really dare to do so and warned her, ”If you dare to make this call, you'll become the nation's most wanted fugitive tomorrow. You hid your identity to enter the Autumn Palace and lurked around me. I was just about to ask you, what were your intentions? You'll be branded as a spy. What do you think about that?”

An Xiaoning gripped her phone tightly. She knew he was no merciful goddess.

It seemed that evil people were all equally bad in this world.
