The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Right after the news broke about the Ye family's incident, Ye Xiaotian and Mo Li's divorce became the media's focal point.

A huge bunch of journalists, reporters, and paparazzi were squatting outside the hospital in a bid to snap a few shots.

Two days later, the news finally toned down.

An Xiaoning received an unexpected call from Xu Baizhi in the morning.

"It's the seventh day since Old Madam's death. I wasn't there when she passed away. It's only right that I burn her some offerings today. Come along with me," said Xu Baizhi.

An Xiaoning thought it would be inappropriate not to go burn some offerings for her master when even an outsider like Xu Baizhi had decided to do so.

Thus, she agreed. However, she felt ill at ease before leaving the house and decided to put away the jade bangle on her wrist and the jade pendant on her neck.

After purchasing two big bags of paper ingots and paper money, An Xiaoning drove to Beijia Bay.

Xu Baizhi had arrived before she did.

It was not only Xu Baizhi who was there, but also Madam Xu and two other big and burly bodyguards.

"Ms. An, you're here."

Holding the paper offerings in one hand, An Xiaoning unlocked the door of the house with the keys and said, "From now on, you guys don't have to burn offerings for my mentor. I'll do it myself."

"Alright. Baizhi was just thinking that we should come by this time because we weren't present during her passing, and also because the elderly lady was a great benefactor to us," Madam Xu said with a smile.

An Xiaoning did not answer. She could never feel happy whenever she was around the Xu family.

She thought to herself that she'd better limit contact with the Xu family as far as possible in the future.

An Xiaoning squatted down and placed the paper ingots in front of the tombstone. Madam Xu then placed the paper money she had brought beside the paper ingots while An Xiaoning set the offerings on fire with a lighter. She was overwhelmed with an ominous feeling of panic and anxiety. Just as she was about to stand up, she felt a sudden excruciating pain in the nape of her neck. Before she could turn around, she was attacked once more, causing her to black out and fall onto the ground.

The last thing that came to her mind before she lost consciousness was: "Nowadays, you can never really guard against everything. Damn it…"

"What are you waiting for? Carry her into the car," Xu Baizhi ordered the bodyguards.

The two bodyguards hurriedly rushed forward to carry An Xiaoning away. Madam Xu stood rooted to the ground in shock, which made her turn pale. Thinking to herself that it was disrespectful to do that to An Xiaoning right in front of the elderly lady's grave, Madam Xu frantically put her hands together and bowed apologetically.

"Old Madam, we didn't have a choice either. I'm so, so sorry. We've let you down," she murmured.

She seemed to only be able to put her mind at ease and rid herself of any fear and panic after saying those words to the elderly lady's grave.

After burning all the offerings, Madam Xu and Xu Baizhi hurriedly locked the door and took away the keys.

Xu Baizhi and Madam Xu got inside An Xiaoning's car while the bodyguards drove away in the Xu family car.

Both cars were traveling closely together.

Xu Baizhi drove An Xiaoning's car to an abandoned factory where she had already made all the necessary preparations beforehand. She was just waiting for the chance to take action when she met An Xiaoning.

She then got inside her own car with her mother and drove back to the Xu family mansion before heading out again in another car.

This time, Madam Xu did not tag along with Xu Baizhi, who had set off with just one bodyguard in charge of driving.

An Xiaoning was dumped in the trunk of the car with her arms and limbs restrained by handcuffs and her mouth sealed with duct tape.

She was still unconscious.

Xu Baizhi had already searched An Xiaoning's body, thinking that she could find her mobile phone. To Xu Baizhi's astonishment, the latter surprisingly did not carry her mobile phone and wallet with her.

However, Xu Baizhi managed to find the rope that was coiled around her waist and the small pistol she hid inside her bra.

The car drove slowly toward the beach, where a helicopter was waiting for their arrival.

The arrangements were seamless.

Xu Baizhi got inside the helicopter and instructed the bodyguards to drive the car home.

There was also a hypnotist waiting inside the helicopter.

Since it was impossible to carry out hypnosis when one was unconscious, they had to wait for An Xiaoning to regain consciousness and fall asleep in order to hypnotize her.

I'm so close to completing the mission handed to me by the organization. Once I do so, my husband and I will be able to leave the organization for good. I'll be killing two birds with one stone , Xu Baizhi thought to herself.

The mere thought of it sent her into a state of agitation and excitement.

Once they leave the organization, they wouldn't have to be compelled and restricted by the higher-ups and could finally live a peaceful life in the open.

There was nothing more she wanted than to live the life of her dreams.

Three hours into the flight, An Xiaoning finally came to.

She remained still and observed her surroundings with her eyes squinted.

An Xiaoning recognized the sounds of the helicopter engine right away. She cocked her head sideways and caught sight of Xu Baizhi.

She was filled with disappointment. Realizing that her limbs were restrained and her mouth was sealed with tape, An Xiaoning understood what was going on.

If her late mentor were to know about this, she would definitely regret helping such an ingrate alter her fate.

I was too careless to have allowed myself to land in her hands. She'd better pray I don't make it out of here, otherwise…

An Xiaoning could not help but feel extremely unlucky. It was only last night that she told Jin Qingyan to stop sending his bodyguards to keep tabs on her, and yet she had met with a mishap the following day. In that very moment, she absolutely regretted her decision last night.

I was being monitored for so long, why did something happen to me right after I told him to stop?

It's all fate…

She closed her eyes again and continued to feign unconsciousness.

"Why isn't she awake yet?" Xu Baizhi asked, staring at An Xiaoning.

"She should come to anytime soon. Please be a little more patient, Ms. Xu."

"Okay…"

After waiting quietly for a long time, Xu Baizhi's patience had worn thin and she could no longer tolerate it anymore. Thus, she removed the tape on An Xiaoning's mouth and covered her mouth and nose.

An Xiaoning had no choice but to open her eyes.

"She's finally come to."

An Xiaoning stared at Xu Baizhi with her eyes wide open, sending the latter a cold shiver down her spine. Nonetheless, Xu Baizhi said, "It's just your luck to end up in my hands. I'm only going to ask you this, what's your exact birth timing?"

"How would I know? Don't you know that I was raised by my mentor and I have no idea who my biological parents are? How am I supposed to know when I was born?" An Xiaoning gibed.

Xu Baizhi did not say anything else. She would find out the truth once An Xiaoning was hypnotized.

"Make a guess, where do you think I'm sending you to?"

"I don't want to guess. I have no interest in your silly games."

"Psht… An Xiaoning, you're probably the only person who can still remain this calm in such a situation," Xu Baizhi said with raised brows.

"What else am I supposed to do? Cry, weep, and beg for you to let me off?"

Xu Baizhi would never let her off.

"You do have some self-awareness."

An Xiaoning closed her eyes and remained quiet, not wishing to argue with Xu Baizhi, for she knew that angering the latter would not do her any good.

"Why aren't you speaking?" Xu Baizhi taunted.

"I have nothing to say to you." She closed her eyes and continued, "Teacher agreed to help you change your fate with the hopes of letting you go back on the right path. I bet she never expected that you would return to your evil and immoral ways just days after having your fate altered. Seems like you weren't determined to turn over a new leaf at all. You've really wasted Teacher's efforts. She sacrificed her lifespan to help you, and yet you let that sacrifice go down the drain. I once asked Teacher why she was willing to help you, and she told me that it was because she hoped to limit the number of people whom you'd cause harm to. Seems like her hopes have all been let down."
