927 A Million Times for You 289 (1/2)
Despite remaining quiet, she completely dismissed his words in her head.
No matter how brilliant he may be, he can't be compared to Jin Qingyan.
”Do you know how I felt when I found out that you were An Xiaoning? I really hoped you would be the ordinary-looking Mu Ning; only then could you really be mine. The happiest time of my life was when you were possessed by Da Huang, because I got to see you lying obediently on my bed. Whenever I hugged you to sleep, you would cuddle me too. However, things took a turn when you returned to your original self and I got married,” said Tuoba Gucheng, recalling the past.
He finally let his guard down and sat beside her. He held her hand and said, ”I fell in love with you even before I knew that you were my half-sister. I fell in love with you even before I got married. Despite finding out the truth, I still didn't think that it was wrong to be in love with you. When I consummated my marriage with her, I just pretended that she was you. I don't love her at all. However, you really made me so miserable afterward. You put aside everything to reconcile your marriage with Jin Qingyan. I didn't even mind the fact that you were married to him and even had a son with him…”
Overwhelmed with a myriad of emotions, An Xiaoning stared at him and said, ”When I was still Mu Ning, I never thought you would be attracted to or even fall in love with me.”
”When I first saw that face of yours, I too felt like you were way too average-looking and mediocre. However, I realized that I fell in love with your soul after spending more time with you.”
An Xiaoning reached into her chest and grabbed a vial from her bra strap. She then splattered the vial of chemical onto his face at godlike speed.
The instant that she did that, Tuoba Gucheng stiffened and grunted, ”You…” before passing out on the bed.
An icy cold stare formed in An Xiaoning's eyes. She was well aware that one would not be able to swallow voluntarily in an unconscious state.
Fortunately, the person who delivered the chemical to her had also given her a syringe.
Hence, the two vials of chemicals were injected into Tuoba Gucheng's bloodstream within a short amount of time.
After the injection, she put the syringe away and prepared to bring it out with her later.
She then searched Tuoba Gucheng's pocket for his mobile phone.
There were two mobile phones.
As expected, one of the mobile phones were in recording mode and he had recorded their entire conversation.
Her eyes lit up as she erased every recording.
She placed the mobile phone back inside his pocket and waited patiently for him to wake up.

Shi Xiaoyu was beyond excited, thinking to herself that she would be getting what she wanted very soon.
She could not even put her excitement into words.
She continuously paced back and forth in the room.
After waiting for an hour, someone reported to her, ”Madam, Shi Qingzhou has already been brought to the president's place.”
”Got it, I'll make my way there at once.”
She hurriedly headed to her son's mansion.
However, she was dumbstruck the moment she entered.
She was greeted with the sight of Shi Qingzhou and An Xiaoning, who was supposedly imprisoned, holding a cup of tea in their hands each and appearing extremely joyous.
What… did that mean?
She stepped over the gate and said, ”Son…”
”You're here, Mother.”
She frantically rushed forward and asked softly, ”What's going on?”
”I'll handle this matter. Go back and rest if there's nothing else. We'll talk again tomorrow,” he said candidly.
Feeling ill at ease, Shi Xiaoyu said, ”You should at least lock them up first.”
”Mother, one of them is my sister while the other is my aunt. Why should I lock them up? We're family, there's no need to be so formal.”
Shi Xiaoyu felt as if she was struck by thunder and stood rooted to the ground, dumbfounded.
”Son, what's wrong with you?”
”Nothing's wrong with me. Just stay out of this, Mother. Go home. I'll chat with Sister for a while.”
”...!!!”
