1316 I Only Want You 14 (1/2)
”What do you mean?” Bu Xianxian questioned, staring at her.
”Didn't you two already break up? Why are you together again?”
Feeling a little tense, Bu Xianxian retorted, ”That's our business, stay out of it. Stop being so nosy and scram.”
An Xiaoning shrugged her shoulders and said nonchalantly, ”Oh, good luck.”
After watching her leave, Bu Xianxian held onto Shi Shaochuan's arm and said, ”She's so annoying.”
”Hasn't she always been very annoying? Just ignore her. Are you done yet?” Shi Shaochuan asked calmly.
”Yeah, almost.”
”Let's go, then.” Shi Shaochuan proceeded to pay for their items at the supermarket's counter. They exited to see that An Xiaoning was standing in front of her car and drinking some water while staring at them.
”Shi Shaochuan.”
”What do you want?” Shi Shaochuan asked indifferently.
”I'd like to give you an honest piece of advice. Would you like to hear it?”
”Save it.”
An Xiaoning answered, ”Sure, if you say so. However, don't you notice how you've been feeling very uncomfortable lately?”
She walked toward the driver's seat in a bid to leave. Just as she was about to enter, Shi Shaochuan stopped her. ”Wait a minute.”
She rolled down the window and said, ”Speak.”
”Were you able to tell something?”
Bu Xianxian frantically interjected, ”An Xiaoning, quit trying to swindle us. We won't fall for your tricks.”
”Bu Xianxian, you're really something, huh?” An Xiaoning leaned back sluggishly and stared at the two of them. She continued, ”Shi Shaochuan, I wasn't going to be kind and tell you what's going on with your body because you're an evildoer. However, it just so happens that the person who did it to you is Bu Xianxian, the woman I detest the most. After weighing the pros and cons, I decided that I really don't want to see her living so leisurely. Shi Shaochuan, there's someone on your back.”
”Someone on my back? Who?”
She smiled and said, ”What do you think? Figure it out yourself.”
She rolled the window up and drove away.
Shi Shaochuan stood rooted to the ground before turning to look at Bu Xianxian. ”Did she mean that you're up to something?” he questioned.
Bu Xianxian eagerly explained, ”Shaochuan, don't believe her nonsense, alright? It's obviously not me. I'm not that capable, don't malign me. I just have a feud with her. Didn't you hear what she said about not wanting me to live a carefree life? That damned An Xiaoning. All she does is spout nonsense and frighten the public. Don't believe her. She's just out to make our life difficult.”
”How did she know that I'm feeling unwell, then?”
”You look so pale. Anyone can tell that you're unwell. Shaochuan, you mustn't believe her words,” said Bu Xianxian.
Feeling an immense headache, Shi Shaochuan remained quiet and got inside the car straight away while Bu Xianxian got inside the passenger seat.
He began driving toward the Shi family mansion.
The pair barely spoke to each other throughout the journey home, during which Shi Shaochuan struggled to drive while trying to bear with the discomfort. As soon as he arrived home, he lay down in bed and dozed off. Bu Xianxian sat on the bed, and her lips curled into a sinister smile.
She wished she could hammer An Xiaoning to death, at the thought of the latter almost foiling her plans.
Fortunately for her, Shi Shaochuan did not seem to have suspected anything.
On the other hand, An Xiaoning constantly pondered over the scene that she had witnessed at the supermarket earlier. There was a ghost child riding on Shi Shaochuan's back, and she knew exactly who the culprit was. I really couldn't tell that Bu Xianxian would actually resort to black magic.
