Shi Qingzhou stopped laughing and said coldly, "Yes, it's me. I bet you never thought I would be able to escape your clutches, did you? I bet you never expected that we would be communicating with each other through the phone, did you? Shi Xiaoyu, I know you're sending your people to search for me desperately. But I'm telling you outrightly, since I've managed to escape, it's impossible that I'll return to your hands."

"Shi Qingzhou… don't forget, you're not alone. You still have a biological daughter," said Shi Xiaoyu, still keeping her volume down.

"I called you precisely because I wanted to tell you this. If you continue to search for me incessantly and harbor any funny ideas of harming my daughter, Tuoba Rui will hear of all your evil acts and misdeeds come tomorrow, believe it or not. Just you wait and see."

A grave expression formed on Shi Xiaoyu's face the moment she ended the call.

Needless to say, Shi Qingzhou was trying to threaten her.

But did it work?

Not at all. I, Shi Xiaoyu, have never allowed anyone to threaten me before, especially not Shi Qingzhou , Shi Xiaoyu thought to herself with a sinister chuckle.

She would definitely be anxious and flustered if Tuoba Rui were to continue his position as the president. However, things were different now that she had received the news of her son winning the majority of the votes. Shi Qingzhou, you've never been able to defeat me in the past. Neither will you be able to do so now or in the future!

The three of them gathered around the dining table in a hotpot restaurant at seven o'clock in the evening.

Gu Beicheng and Lin Mingxi were giving An Xiaoning a treat tonight. An Xiaoning was eating merrily.

Spicy foods were her absolute favorite.

"Only you'd have the capability to settle the casting for both the male and the female leads in one day. Here, let me toast to you," said Lin Mingxi, raising her glass.

An Xiaoning clinked her glass against hers and said, "Do pay more attention to the matters regarding the film set and the production team. I still have far more important things to handle."

"No problem, I understand that you have to oversee major matters regarding the country's welfare, Your Majesty. Rest assured and leave the harem to me, Your Majesty," Lin Mingxi jested.

"Thank you for being so understanding toward me, my beloved Consort. You'll be greatly rewarded tonight."

Gu Beicheng burst into laughter and said, "What does that make me, then?"

"Hmm… you may pick between a physician and a eunuch. Which one of the two would you like to be?" An Xiaoning asked.

"…"

"I just acknowledged a new teacher who's the senior of my first teacher," said An Xiaoning.

"That's great. Here's to our fortune-teller broadening her skills," Lin Mingxi exclaimed with a smile.

"Teacher told me to avoid helping my family and friends read their fortunes, whenever possible, for I'll face severe consequences for exposing Heaven's secret and going against His will. So, I can't read your fortunes every month anymore from now on. At the very least, it can't be so frequent," said An Xiaoning.

"I understand. I've also heard that fortune-tellers aren't supposed to read fortunes so often," Gu Beicheng agreed, not wanting An Xiaoning to suffer any mishaps because of fortune-telling.

"I'll do it for you guys once more tonight when we get home, but the next time will have to be a long time later. I'll try my best to read as far ahead as possible."

"Alright, your health is of the utmost importance. We managed to survive so many ordeals, all thanks to you. Xiaoning, you have to prioritize your health; otherwise, we'll be very worried about you," Gu Beicheng said unhurriedly.

An Xiaoning smiled and nodded.

The three of them left the restaurant after finishing their meal.

They headed home together since they arrived in the same car.

Once they arrived home, the family of five sat on the couch. After reading Mr. and Mrs. Gu's birth characters, An Xiaoning said, "Father, you will be safe, but you have to cut down on your smoking because your lungs are going to be uncomfortable. Mother, you still have to avoid leaving the house whenever you go out. Do bring along more bodyguards with you even if you're just going out to take a breather."

Mr. and Mrs. Gu were relieved to hear her words.

An Xiaoning then read Lin Mingxi's birth characters, after which she stared at the latter with a grave expression on her face.

"Xiaoning, don't look at me like that, it's intimidating. Am I going to meet with a rocky path soon?" Lin Mingxi asked, feeling ill at ease.

An Xiaoning remained silent and stared at the table, seemingly thinking about something.

Seemingly having guessed something, Gu Beicheng said, "Xiaoning, there are no outsiders here. Just tell us straight about what's on your mind. We've prepared ourselves mentally."

"I have good news and bad news. Which would you like to hear first?"

After a moment of silence, Lin Mingxi answered, "Bad news first."

"The bad news is, I couldn't read your fortune based on your birth characters. Your fate has been altered not long ago. Military Commander Xu's daughter Xu Baizhi's fate has been altered too. She's currently staying with my teacher in hopes of changing her fate back, though we're not sure if it's feasible. I could read that your fate has been altered just a few days ago," An Xiaoning explained solemnly.

Lin Mingxi felt a shiver down her spine as her heart sank to rock bottom. "Then… Xiaoning, can my fate be restored?"

"For now, yes, because yours has only been altered a few days. Seems like the person who's trying to harm you is aware of your birth characters and is trying to lead you onto a path toward ruin. If you hadn't found out this soon, a less severe outcome would have been a mental disorder while the worst would have been death."

"I know who's trying to harm me. It's my sister, without a doubt. I told my parents to keep their lips sealed about my birth characters, but my sister knows what they are. It must be her, for sure," said Lin Mingxi, turning as pale as a sheet.

"Or it could also be Xu Youran and her husband. Regardless of who it may be, I'll first help you restore your fate, after which I'll consult my teacher about how to prevent it from being rewritten again," said a petrified An Xiaoning. If she had not planned on reading her family's birth characters again tonight, Lin Mingxi would have definitely suffered dire consequences in due time.

By then…

The outcome would have been unimaginable.

"How evil and vicious of the perpetrator to harm others through such sinister means. If not for Xiaoning, we probably would have died without knowing why," Mrs. Gu lamented, pounding her chest.

"Let me tell you the good news now. You'll get pregnant within the next six months," An Xiaoning continued.

The four members of the Gu family jumped for joy upon hearing her words.

"Xiaoning, is that real?" Lin Mingxi asked agitatedly.

"Absolutely. Let me take a look at Beicheng's fortune." She then continued with a look of ease, "You'll be fine for the upcoming days. Continue to be on your guard at all times against those who are up to no good."

"Xiaoning… could you help me restore my fate? You said that it'd be easy to do so since it has only been a few days, right?" Lin Mingxi asked, clearly terrified.

Noticing how terrorized she was, An Xiaoning nodded and said, "I'll give it a try. Come with me."

An Xiaoning stood up while the rest of them followed suit.

Mr. and Mrs. Gu and Gu Beicheng stood outside his bedroom to wait patiently for An Xiaoning and Lin Mingxi, who were inside.

"Thank god. Thank Heavens Xiaoning managed to discover it in time tonight. Otherwise, the consequences would have been disastrous," Mrs. Gu said softly.

"Exactly. The more I think about it, the more spooked I am. We don't even know when her fate was altered. Isn't that terrifying?" Mr. Gu chimed in.
