”To the gym. I promised Xiaoning that I would get an eight-pack soon.”
”…”

Four days had passed.
However, there was still no signs of them coming to.
It seemed as if their souls had left their bodies to go out on a spin.
An Xiaoning would head to the hospital whenever she was free.
She grew even thinner within just a few days.
At the same time, there was once again a new wave of controversial news about her.
It claimed that her birth characters were inauspicious, and she was labeled as a jinx who caused harm to those around her.
There were also various reporters and so-called experts who especially made a trip to the village where An Xiaoning's adoptive parents were living to find out more.
They managed to get their hands on some ”evidence” and cited some ridiculous incidents.
To An Xiaoning, they were simply making absurd statements and frivolous claims about the incidents.
However, it can't be helped that some people had low IQs and lacked the ability to tell right from wrong, such that they were foolish enough to believe everything on the news.
There was no way to stop the news from spreading, and it was obvious that there was a mastermind behind the act.
An Xiaoning had no idea who the culprit was, and neither did she want to waste her time finding out.
She already had enough on her plate to worry about.
She did not expect there to be something else to add on to her woes.
The Jin family gave her a call to get her to go over to their place.
She had an ominous feeling.
She brought along the jade piece that Madam Jin had given her previously.
On her way there, she constantly pondered over Madam Jin's tone when they were speaking over the phone.
She guessed that the Lin family must have said something to them.
The Jin and Lin families had always enjoyed a strong camaraderie. Besides, Lin Shishi was now the president's wife. How could the Jin family be brazen enough to offend the Lin family?
An Xiaoning began to wonder if she was reading too much into things.
