"Why did that happen?"

An Xiaoning had no idea how to answer him. "My condolences…"

Tuoba Rui sighed and said, "It's really all Heaven's will…"

….

"Who called you?"

An Xiaoning sat down and did not answer him.

"I'm asking you a question."

"It doesn't matter whether you know or not. There's no need for you to know."

"You really want me to disappear immediately, don't you?"

Staring at him, she asked, "Why did you ask such a question all of sudden?"

"I guess that must be the case," he said sluggishly while lying in bed, his eyes glistening.

"You're right. However, I want you to disappear with no regrets. Could you tell me what I must do to make you leave?"

"I will never disappear. Over my dead body. Are you very disappointed to hear my answer?"

An Xiaoning sprawled herself across the bed and said, "Regardless of which personality is in control, you're still you. Although you're very detestable, I'll be fine with your existence as long as you're more obedient."

"An Xiaoning, shall we make a bet?"

She closed her eyes and said sluggishly, "You'll never win, no matter what we bet on. Don't bother."

"Psht…"

"Oh wow, are you refusing to accept that fact? I mean it. Given the state and predicament you're in now, how could you possibly win against me in a bet?" An Xiaoning retorted.

"Let's bet on whether I'll fall in love with you or not."

She opened her eyes immediately and stared at him in disbelief, "Really?"

"Yes."

An Xiaoning smirked and said, "It's a sure win for me, then. Do you dare believe that I won't make you suffer a crushing defeat?"

He scoffed and gibed, "Are you still muddled up about the differences between me and Jin Qingyan? I detest you as much as he loves you. Aren't you aware of that?"

"So what if that's the case? What's going to happen if I win? What's going to happen if I lose?"

"If you win…" Staring at her solemnly, he continued, "Let's have a huge bet. Are you game enough for it?"

"Of course. Game on."

"Alright, if I win, you're not to show up in front of me ever again. You understand what I mean, don't you? What I mean is, you're allowed to visit the children but you can't appear in front of me. If I lose, I'll disappear forever."

"What… do you mean? I'm still young, I don't understand," she answered, keeping her eyes fixed on him.

"Stop feigning ignorance. What I mean is, if I fall in love with you one day, I'll admit defeat and vanish," said Henry.

No one would be able to understand how An Xiaoning felt at all.

No one…

However, she did not reveal any of her emotions at all and said with a straight face, "I suggest you think about it carefully. Don't just make bets with me casually."

"I don't need to consider. I'm very certain about it."

"Alright, we'll pen it down in black and white, and then we'll sign our names and stamp our thumbprints."

"Alright."

An Xiaoning was on the verge of bursting into laughter at the sight of how smug and confident he was.

How dare a man who had loved me in his previous lifetime and still loves me now make such a bet with me?

She was great at figuring him out and having him wrapped around her finger.

An Xiaoning instructed the bodyguards to draft up a document according to the terms she had stated. She then began practising yoga in the hospital ward.

When the bodyguards returned with the document, the two of them signed their names and stamped their thumbprints onto the documents. Surprisingly, even his handwriting was different from that of Jin Qingyan's.

"Do you still have any other talents apart from car racing?"

"Why? Are you trying to find out my other interests and try to use them to make me fall for you?"

"Cut the crap and answer me. Do you still have any other talents?"

"Of course… not."

"Do you enjoy only car racing?"

"Yes."

An Xiaoning put the documents away and said, "I'll keep both the documents with me and we'll see what the results are in the future. However, you seem really confident. Do you really think you detest me that much?"

"Of course."

"I can't tell, actually. Usually, when a person detests another person, they wouldn't even bother talking to them."

"I'm just a special exception, okay?"

"Fine, fine, continue staying here. I'm going home now. The children have to return to the boot camp in the afternoon. I have to send them there." She grabbed her mobile phone and car keys before walking out.

"Leave and never come back," he said derisively.

"You don't get to decide whether I return or not." Before leaving, she warned, "If you dare let Hu Xin enter again, I'll teach you a lesson. I'll give the bodyguards some instructions."

….

As soon as An Xiaoning stepped foot inside the living room at home, she saw the three children playing some video games.

To be exact, Jin Yiheng was playing some video games on his new mobile phone while the other two children sat beside him.

"Mommy, you're home!" Jin Rongyan exclaimed.

"Yes."

"Hello, Auntie," Wen Yuechan immediately greeted politely.

"Yuechan, you're here too. You're in the same class as Yiheng, right?"

"Yes. Me, Yiheng, Wenlun, and Bao'er are all classmates."

An Xiaoning sat beside Jin Rongyan and asked, "How does Yiheng do in school?"

"He does very well, and Teacher often sings his praises," Wen Yuechan answered politely, bearing in mind her mother's words about maintaining her poise and grace whenever she was at Jin Yiheng's home. Hence, she perpetually had a sweet smile on her face and kept her back straight at all times.

"Godma!" Long Xiaoxi exclaimed. When she heard her voice, the smile on Wen Yuechan's face faded significantly.

Long Xiaoxi's hair was plaited into a braid, and she zoomed toward An Xiaoning with a lollipop in her hand. "Godma, Uncle Fan said that you'd be sending Rongyan and Yiheng to the boot camp in the afternoon. Mommy wants me and Brother to hitch a ride from you."

"Sure. Xiaoxi, your dress is really beautiful. Who bought it for you?"

Long Xiaoxi licked her lollipop and answered, "Mommy did."

"Xiaoxi, how have you been performing in school?"

"Xiaoxi? Hahahaha," Jin Rongyan butted in in amusement.

"What are you laughing about…?" An Xiaoning asked upon seeing how happy he seemed.

"Mommy, you have no idea how much Xiaoxi had angered our teacher during the Mandarin lessons we had before the break."

"What happened?"

"Hey, don't say it," said Long Xiaoxi, who scurried forward to cover Jin Rongyan's mouth.

Jin Rongyan pushed her chubby hand away and said, "Okay, okay, I won't say it."

As curious as a cat, An Xiaoning asked, "Xiaoxi, how did you make the teacher angry? Tell us about it and let Godma have a good laugh…"

"It's nothing much, actually. Forget it, Rongyan, tell Godma about it."

Upon gaining her permission, Jin Rongyan immediately explained eagerly, "Teacher called on Xiaoxi to answer a question and explain what a poem meant… However, Xiaoxi gave an absolutely ridiculous and absurd answer… In the end, Teacher got angry and asked her how she got those ideas. She then said that she heard it on television when her father was watching some television programs. When Godpa came to pick Xiaoxi up, Teacher even chided him and told him not to let Xiaoxi watch any more nonsensical television programs… Godpa got really upset on the spot…"
