Just as she was engrossed in staring at the photo, Tuoba Gucheng snatched the camera away from her hands forcefully.

“Who allowed you to touch my things?” he barked, glaring at her coldly.

Lin Shishi immediately said, “I was just casually looking. But why do you have photos of Mu Ning in your camera?”

“Get out.”

Tears welled up in Lin Shishi’s eyes as she turned around to leave his office.

Upon returning to the bedroom, she called in two of his bodyguards, one of whom was Xiao Chi.

“Madam, do you have any orders for us?”

“Do you guys remember Mu Ning, that bodyguard who used to follow my husband around?”

“Yes,” Xiao Chi answered.

“Where did that woman go?”

“We have no idea, she resigned and left long ago. We don’t know where she went.”

“How did she get along with Gucheng usually?”

“They shared a normal employer-subordinate relationship.”

“Got it, you may leave.”

“Okay,” said a puzzled Xiao Chi, who left with the other bodyguard.

Lin Shishi could not help but sense that something was amiss. Did Tuoba Gucheng hide that woman?

It’s very likely for that to have happened.

Yet, another voice in her head was telling her, “That Mu Ning looks so ordinary and plain. How could he possibly have such poor taste in women?”

It’s obvious that I’m ten times prettier than she is.

How conflicting and mind-boggling.

Lin Shishi could not wrap her head around what was going on. She decided to call her brother and ask for his help in finding out more about Mu Ning.

After waiting for several hours, she received disappointing results.

There were only a few people in the nation who shared the same name as Mu Ning. However, none of the information and photos she received were related to the Mu Ning she was concerned with.

Lin Shishi was perturbed and vexed.

She was stuck in a huge dilemma and found the entire situation extremely absurd. She could not figure out just what about Mu Ning was attractive.

She did not have an outgoing personality and looked extremely average.

Tuoba Gucheng must have lost his mind to have fallen for a woman like her.

But, how can those photos of her in his camera be explained?

Why did he snap photos of her when she was sleeping?

Tuoba Gucheng browsed through the photos again. He had been staring at them for a long time while chugging some alcohol last night.

He could clearly remember that those photos were taken when she was asleep beside him, during the time that she was possessed by the spirit of his deceased golden retriever.

At that point, he was not married yet.

At that point, he had no idea that she was An Xiaoning.

At that point, their relationship was not as strained as it was now.

At that point, he was bent on protecting her by doing everything in his power.

Everything had changed.

He could not bear to delete the photos, for he no longer had the chance to take such photos again.

Yet, it would spark more issues if he did not delete them.

After much consideration, he decided to delete them in the end.

Lin Mingxi woke up from her sleep in immense pain. She broke out into a cold sweat and struggled to support herself up, only to find that Gu Beicheng had already left for the office.

She picked up her mobile phone with much difficulty and hurriedly called Gu Beicheng before proceeding to call Mrs. Gu.

“Mother, my stomach hurts, hurry and come here.”

Mrs. Gu was just wondering why Lin Mingxi was calling her when she was just at home. Upon hearing her words, Mrs. Gu got a great shock and hurriedly rushed upstairs.

“Mingxi, what’s wrong with you?”

“I don’t know, I’m just in so much pain right now. Mother, hurry and help me downstairs, let’s go to the hospital.”

“I’ll get someone to carry you downstairs,” said Mrs. Gu, who noticed that she did not seem to be able to walk. She immediately summoned the bodyguards to carry Lin Mingxi into the car.

At the same time, Gu Beicheng was also rushing to the hospital.

By the time Mrs. Gu and Lin Mingxi arrived, Gu Beicheng had already arranged for a gynecologist to treat her.

He took Lin Mingxi from the bodyguard’s arms and lowered her onto the bed in the ultrasound scan room.

The gynecologist quickly conducted a full-body check on Lin Mingxi.

During the checkup procedure, Lin Mingxi felt an excruciating pain in her abdomen and grabbed onto Gu Beicheng’s hand while wincing in agony.

“Doctor, just what’s going on?” Mrs. Gu asked eagerly.

“There are early signs of a miscarriage. I’ll prescribe some oral tocolytic for her. She should be fine if she doesn’t bleed,” said the gynecologist, causing the three of them to be dumbfounded.

“That can’t be, I came by for a checkup just a few days ago. Everything was fine then.”

Pangs of panic engulfed Lin Mingxi. This was the first child she had ever conceived and it meant a great deal to Gu Beicheng. She had been extremely careful with her steps and movements. How could there be signs of a miscarriage?

However, she had no choice but to take the gynecologist’s word for it and take the tocolytic medication.

She took it immediately upon receiving the medication from the pharmacy in the hospital.

During the journey home from the hospital, there was still a dull ache in her abdomen, which made her feel exceptionally uncomfortable.

“Everything was going fine. How did this happen? You didn’t take anything cold last night either. This doesn’t make sense at all,” said Gu Beicheng.

“Is Xiaoning overseas now? Shall we ask Xiaoning to take a look?”

Mrs. Gu’s words struck a chord within Lin Mingxi, who hurriedly said, “I didn’t bring my mobile phone out with me. Beicheng, lend me yours, I’ll give Xiaoning a call.”

Gu Beicheng immediately handed her his mobile phone, after which Lin Mingxi frantically dialed An Xiaoning’s number.

Upon hearing that An Xiaoning was at home, Lin Mingxi quickly called her over to the Gu family mansion, though she did not explain the situation in detail. An Xiaoning agreed.

An Xiaoning arrived not long after they did.

“Xiaoning, Mingxi woke up with an excruciating pain in her abdomen this morning. We just came back from the hospital, and the gynecologist said that she’s showing signs of a miscarriage. She’s already taken some oral tocolytic, but why do you think she’d experience these abnormal symptoms out of nowhere? Take a look at her birth characters and see if there are any problems with it. If nothing’s wrong, then it must be an issue with her health.”

“Alright.” An Xiaoning sat down beside Lin Mingxi and asked, “Does it still hurt?”

“Yes, but not as much as it did before. It was so excruciating and unbearable at the start. It’s just a sharp pain now.”

An Xiaoning read Lin Mingxi’s birth characters, after which she sighed and called No. 5 to bring her the black bag she placed inside her room.

“Xiaoning, is something wrong with Mingxi’s birth characters?”

An Xiaoning nodded and said, “Yes, someone has placed a curse on her. Her birth characters must have been leaked to an ill-intentioned person.”

“What curse is that?” Gu Beicheng asked with a frown.

“It’s a kind of ritual, and the effects will only take place the day after the ritual. It’s rather brutal and wicked. In conditions like Mingxi’s, a miscarriage will definitely occur within a few days. The adult will also die within a month.”

Everyone gasped in shock. Frightened out of her senses, Lin Mingxi held An Xiaoning’s hand and exclaimed, “Save me.”

“Everything will be fine with me around. Didn’t I already instruct you to tell your parents to remain tight-lipped? How did your birth characters get leaked?” An Xiaoning asked.

“My sister must have been the one who did it. She came home out of the blue a few days ago. She acted out of the ordinary and began apologizing to my parents and speaking to them politely. I even instructed them specifically not to leak my birth characters,” said Lin Mingxi.

“According to what you said, your parents must have leaked your birth characters to her by accident. After all, they probably wouldn’t have been on their guard against their own child. Now that she has gotten hold of your birth characters and birth timing, you have to take precautions against her for the rest of your life.”
