The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses
chapter-1334

An Xiaoning was at a loss for words, and she barged into the operating theater without another word.

As soon as she did, Shi Shaochuan reached the entrance of the operating theater.

Upon the sight of him, Jin Qingyue exclaimed in exasperation, “What are you here for? It’s all your fault that this happened to Bao’er. Are you happy now? Shi Shaochuan, you’re the one who returned Bao’er’s custody to me. Since you had already decided that you don’t want her anymore, why did you still go look her up!?!”

Shi Shaochuan was momentarily speechless. At last, he retorted, “Do you really think I wanted this to happen to Bao’er!?! It’s all because you didn’t want to let me meet her!”

Afraid that the fetus would be affected because of how furious and agitated Jin Qingyue was, Ling Ciye hurriedly tried to placate her feelings, “Cut it out. Wait for the results patiently.”

They finally quietened down.

With a grave expression on her face, An Xiaoning stared at Jin Bao’er, who was lying on the operating theater.

It was clear that the doctors were trying their best to resuscitate and rescue Jin Bao’er.

An Xiaoning felt much more relieved after realizing that Jin Bao’er’s soul did not leave her body.

However, she was still uncertain and was worried upon seeing the sullen expressions on the doctors’ faces and the massive amount of blood everywhere.

When An Xiaoning exited from the operating theater, Jin Qingyue frantically asked, “Sis-in-law, how is Bao’er now?”

“I’m not too sure about her exact condition, but she’s still in the midst of emergency rescue. Qingyue, what are her birth characters?”

Jin Qingyue told her straight away since there were no outsiders around.

An Xiaoning’s heart sank after hearing the birth characters and remained silent afterward.

Noticing the change in her expression, Jin Qingyue asked, “Sis-in-law, is she… in danger?”

After taking a look at the time, An Xiaoning said, “Bao’er will pass away in a minute’s time. She can’t be rescued. Go inside and take a look at her while you still have time.”

Jin Qingyue was on the verge of passing out, and she only managed to get back on her feet with Ling Ciye’s help. As soon as she did, she sprinted toward the operating theater.

The moment she entered, the surgeon sighed and said, “We’ve already done the best we could.”

Jin Qingyue leaped toward the operating table, followed by Shi Shaochuan.

Jin Bao’er opened her eyes slightly and was breathing heavily. She had been administered with a half-body anesthetic, which numbed her body from the neck down. Hence, she was still conscious from above the neck.

The reason for the half-body anesthesia was to prevent her from falling unconscious.

Jin Qingyue grabbed her hand with tears falling from her eyes continuously. “Bao’er, it’s Mommy. Bao’er…”

“Mommy… don’t… don’t blame Uncle… No. 5, I… I… was the one who insisted on going… I… really… really… regret doing that… I shouldn’t have done that to Auntie Wen… how… is she… now…”

“She’s dead. She killed herself.”

Jin Bao’er could no longer make another sound. She opened her mouth and shifted her gaze onto An Xiaoning. She struggled to speak for the very last time. “Auntie… I… really… know my mistakes…”

She fell silent afterward and closed her eyes.

Jin Qingyue began bawling loudly and fainted shortly after.

Ling Ciye carried her out of the operating theater while An Xiaoning stood rooted to the ground, incapable of speech.

No one could change what had already been written in the books of fate.

Everyone remained silent throughout the journey back from the hospital.

An Xiaoning was particularly quiet. Shi Shaochuan tagged along back to Wei Ni Estate because they had brought Jin Bao’er’s corpse back home. An Xiaoning and Jin Qingyan did not chase him away on account that he was Jin Bao’er’s father.

However, An Xiaoning snapped the moment she saw Shi Shaochuan grabbing No. 5 by the collar.

“Stop what you’re doing, Shi Shaochuan. This is not your home.”

“If he hadn’t defied Jin Qingyue’s orders, Bao’er probably wouldn’t have died!”

An Xiaoning stepped forward and pulled him away. “You’re the one at fault and yet you’re blaming others. Weren’t you the one who insisted that Bao’er go visit you at the hospital? Why are you shifting the blame to No. 5 now? No. 5 didn’t want that to happen to Bao’er! I’ll punish No. 5 for failing to stick to his principle, but you’re in no place to punish my bodyguard. Shi Shaochuan, don’t forget where you are right now!”

Shi Shaochuan pushed her hand away and murmured, “Bao’er is gone now. She’s already dead.”

An Xiaoning rebuked, “Why are you shedding crocodile tears now? Do you still not know the reason behind Bao’er’s death? Even if No. 5 made Bao’er stay in the boot camp, she would still have died at that same timing tonight. That’s because you’ve already been controlled and manipulated long ago! Do you still remember what I said to you in the supermarket previously? There’s a spirit on your back!”

Shi Shaochuan stared at her in astonishment and asked, “A spirit on my back?”

“I initially thought that Bu Xianxian had summoned a ghost child to ride on your back so as to milk more money from you. I never expected that she would collude with Wen Lele and devise a scheme against Bao’er. Even if you didn’t meet Bao’er today, she would still have thought of another solution to make you do so. Shi Shaochuan, did you forget how you killed Wang Fangfang back then? Bao’er had inherited your cruel and ruthless nature. How dare you have the cheek to blame others?”

An Xiaoning thought that the main reason was that Jin Qingyue had failed to discipline Jin Bao’er and teach her the right values from a young age.

However, she would not say that out loud.

Genetics may not be changed, but a child can be brought back onto the right track with some discipline. After all, it was clear that Jin Bao’er had improved significantly within a short period of time.

“Is there still a spirit on my back?”

“No, it’s gone now.”

Gritting his teeth in anger, Shi Shaochuan murmured, “Bu Xianxian, that damned woman…”

An Xiaoning warned, “If you resort to any illegal acts, you’ll definitely be put behind bars. ”

Needless to say, Shi Shaochuan obviously understood that fact. However, he resented Bu Xianxian to the core. No wonder I allowed her to stay by my side even though I didn’t even want to see her at all. No wonder my body was acting against my wishes and I seemed to have lost control over my actions.

No wonder I was so lethargic all the time prior to this. 

If only I heeded An Xiaoning’s advice after running into her at the supermarket that day. Perhaps things wouldn’t have…

“An Xiaoning, since you had already seen the spirit on my back at the supermarket that day, why didn’t you fend it off? Had you gotten rid of it, I wouldn’t have been bewitched and manipulated by Bu Xianxian!”

Flabbergasted to see how unreasonable he was, An Xiaoning exclaimed, “I already told you clearly that day that there was a spirit on your back but you refused to believe me. What was I supposed to do? Force a ritual onto you? Shi Shaochuan, how shameless of you to be blaming everyone else but yourself. Have you got peanuts for brains? Are your brains loaded with feces? You’re not welcome here, scram!”
