Ye Ningyuan looked at her and said, “Are you proud that you managed to manipulate me one step at a time into this quandary I’m in today?”
One could not tell from An Xunuo’s or his face how they’re feeling at the moment. Both of them were expressionless. An Xunuo knew that some things had changed.
He regretted it, didn’t he?
She looked away and smiled bitterly in her heart. How could he, this proud and arrogant, willingly allow himself to be manipulated by a woman? But didn’t he know that this was a trap all along? Why did he still come and eventually regret it?
Ye Ningyuan held the steering wheel so tightly his knuckles were clear. He did not regret it, and he, however one put it, rarely regretted what he decided on. Even if he knew that An Xunuo had manipulated him, he went to the Sophie Vasi without looking back.
“I was taking my chances at whether you loved me and whether you were vicious enough,” Ye Ningyuan said. “I admit that I have lost.”
An Xunuo’s heart ached dully. She felt as though she had been punched.
Ye Ningyuan was troubled and was not in the mood to think about things between An Xunuo and himself. What was most pressing for him was to locate Hailan as her fate was what mattered to him most now. Everything else could wait.
“Let’s quiet down for a moment,” Ye Ningyuan said. An Xunuo turned her head and asked, “Maybe I’ve sent the information up.”
“That’s your problem, and you do not have to deliberately tell me,” Ye Ningyuan plainly said and looked on calmly. “That is your responsibility, and you will have to naturally send the information up. It’s axiomatic that you do what you have to do, and I kind of guess that you would. That said, this little affair will be insufficient to run the Top Terrorist Organization into the ground. If you are serious about defeating terrorism, you will have to rack your brains harder.”
An Xunuo gently smiled. “What if I was acting stupid just to gather all the information I wanted?”
“All I can say is that your acting has been utterly perfected,” Ye Ningyuan said. He knew that An Xunuo was merely hypothesizing and wasn’t saying the truth. He knew way better than them all whether she was ill or not. She was unable to disguise personality to that extent. However, she reminded him that if she had feigned those days, she was with him twenty-four seven and able to freely enter the study, especially the archives room. All the information she gathered then would have been more than enough to take the Top Terrorist Organization down.
An Xunuo was lost for words once again and she looked at him deeply. “Goodbye!”
She opened the door and got out of the car.
Perhaps, they would not meet again. That was all between them.
Regardless of who gambled, they would be able to calmly talk it out if Hailan were all fine and things could still change. If Hailan was dead, then it was all over between them.
Heh, it was not quite an end either. Since nothing began, where was the end? Indeed, they maintained this together-away attitude and were so-called ‘in love’ those days, but they were still guarded against each other and did not really begin.
An Xunuo’s eyes stung. She was extremely unwilling to see something happen to Hailan. It’s not about it was over between Ye Ningyuan and her if something happened to Hailan, but how she really liked Hailan and did not wish for anything to happen to her. She had never implicated others because of herself. If Hailan died because of her, she would regret it for the rest of her life.
She straightened her back. Her heart felt stuffy but she suppressed the desire to look back. She had a feeling that she would leave for real this time. If she did, she must not allow him to see how helter-skelter she was.
Ye Ningyuan saw her back and felt a stifling feeling in his heart. His head ached painfully. How did he fall in love with such a troublesome and twisted woman who was also vicious? If he had not suspected something was amiss, and if Azure Dragon had not called to explain everything, he was afraid that he could not have guessed her actual identity and would have lived in the assumption she was out for revenge.
An Xunuo ran deep like still waters.
But what could he do? Wasn’t he willingly hopping into the trap? Each had their own task and there’s nobody to spare. It was afraid he was the only person who loved challenges enough to like her. If something really happened to Hailan this time, what could he do?
How could he face Xu Nuo? How could he face his family? Ye Ningyuan did not look at that silhouette that caused his heart to ache and drove away. He had to immediately confirm news about Hailan.
As An Xunuo walked alone on the streets, she felt stifled as though there was a huge rock on her chest. Her head was also aching sharply, and she sat down in the park and clutched her aching head.
There were very few people in the open park save for a few old men. As this part of the park was excessively quiet, one could only hear the wind. An Xunuo was very uncomfortable and many parts of her body ached. She leaned against the bench and sweated buckets.
She clutched her chest. Her wound had healed with an unbearably searing feeling. Her head was aching sharply, and she could not shake away the pain.
An old couple, seeing that she was amiss, asked her worriedly whether she was unwell and needed to be sent to the hospital. Xunuo shook her head, and the two, although worried, did not disturb her and slowly left.
An Xunuo leaned against the bench and gently massaged her solar plexus to stop this uncomfortable feeling. All of a sudden, her memories, as though opened, surged into her mind.
Paradise Island, the camellias that blanketed the mountains, the wolves amidst the camellias, the brutal old man, the young men, and the body in the ocean that struggled to escape but was shot dead—Xunuo clutched her head in agonizing pain…
The cold Big Brother Mo, the purple-eyed Second Brother Mo, and…
“Stone… Ahh…”
All her memories from before filled her mind and conflicted with An Xunuo’s memories before they fused. Her head ached. She was lost and slumped onto the bench. She looked to the front in a daze. An old couple who passed by saw her bizarre look and quickly hurried away in fear.
Yes, anybody who saw how An Xunuo looked would feel afraid.
Her eyes were wide open and terrifying.
She completely recovered her memories, but why had she become An Xunuo in the end? She only remembered how she fell off the cliff and thought she was dead. When she woke up, she was in the hospital and became An Xunuo. She had completely forgotten about the past, inherited An Xunuo’s memories, and regarded Michael as her only kin. Why did all these happen?
Xu Nuo reached her hand out in a daze. This body was not hers.
But that soul was clearly hers.
She never believed in reincarnation, and she had no choice but to believe it now. Her spirit entered An Xunuo’s body and she was hence reincarnated.
