“I like that idea, but I’m worried about something.”
“What are you worried about?”
“That the Donggong family will continue to exact revenge on me.”
“Do you really think they would dare to do that? How about I tell them later that you’re my close friend and that I’ll definitely pursue the matter if they were to try and harm you again?”
“How mighty of you, Xiaoning.”
An Xiaoning smiled and said, “That’s what I ought to do. Thanks to you, the curse that had been placed on me is now broken. I’ll definitely continue to protect you, so go ahead and pursue the peaceful life that you want. Find a girl you fancy and settle down with her.”
“Okay, I’ll do my best,” said Wu Lianzhi.
….
All the servants were busy preparing for the birthday banquet.
Although Jin Qingyan had already received the best present ever, he still wanted to go on with the celebration.
He invited his closest friends over for a small gathering in celebration of his birthday.
It was five o’clock in the afternoon. As soon as An Xiaoning came out of the shower, he picked her up and carried her to the bed. “Sing me the birthday song,” he demanded.
“I’ll sing it for you when the banquet begins later.”
“I want to hear it from you first.”
An Xiaoning rolled her eyes and said, “You’re really such a child. Fine, fine, you call the shots since it’s your birthday today. I’ll just sing it for you, Oppa.”
To An Xiaoning’s amusement, he began clapping along.
“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you…”
“You sound great.”
As soon as he praised her, he pulled her down and began tickling her while kissing her, causing An Xiaoning to burst into incessant laughter and roll around on the bed.
She would have continued laughing if someone hadn’t knocked on the door.
Fan Shixin had brought them the clothing that they were going to wear for the banquet.
It consisted of a pair of heels and clothes that were tailored to her measurements.
An Xiaoning fell in love with the outfit the moment she saw it. It was a white gown and a pair of diamond-encrusted stilettos. It was especially made to cater to her needs, because she detested wearing stilettos. Although the heels were rather high, it felt extremely comfortable for her feet.
When they arrived downstairs after getting dressed, they were greeted with the sight of all their friends.
Ling Ciye and Jin Qingyue were sitting on the couch. Long Tianze was initially sitting beside Ling Ciye. However, he decided that lying down would be more comfortable. Hence, he eased himself onto Ling Ciye’s lap.
If they weren’t the best of friends, Ling Ciye would have kicked him away long ago.
Clucking his tongue against the roof of his tongue, Long Tianze remarked, “Sis-in-law, you’re so beautiful. Nice outfit.”
“Yeah, Sis-in-law, you look great. Such a beauty,” Jin Qingyue praised.
An Xiaoning smiled and said, “Money does the trick. Why isn’t Yangyang here yet?”
“She went to pick the kids up. We can’t leave them out during such occasions.”
All the guests were present once the children arrived.
There were no outsiders since it was a small celebration anyway.
Hence, the birthday banquet officially began at six o’clock.
Fan Shixin was the emcee for the evening. After he made the opening speech, it was time for Jin Qingyan to make his wish and cut the cake.
Jin Qingyan walked toward the cake, and they began singing the birthday song while he held his hands together and closed his eyes. Soon, he blew out the candles on the cake.
Everyone began applauding.
Jin Qingyan said, “I just made a wish. Do you guys want to know what it is?”
All eyes were on him. They held their breaths and waited to hear his revelation.
“My wish is…” He paused and stared at An Xiaoning affectionately before completing the rest of his sentence. “Is to marry Xiaoning and make her my wife again as soon as possible.”
“Hooray!” Long Tianze cheered while clapping his hands excitedly.
Everyone followed suit.
An Xiaoning was the only one who remained silent. She looked at Jin Qingyan with a smile on her face.
During the cake-cutting ceremony, An Xiaoning cut the cake together with him and everyone began singing and dancing merrily.
The children were the happiest of them all. They even sneaked some alcohol into the room and gathered together to have some drinks.
In the end, they all got tipsy and dozed off.
——
It had never crossed An Xiaoning’s mind that Wang Jinsheng would show up at their doorstep.
An Xiaoning agreed to let him in reluctantly.
“Ms. An…”
“If you’re here today with the purpose of begging me to put in a good word for you, you may save your breath. There’s no point.”
“Ms. An, when… did you find out?” asked Wang Jinsheng, who did not expect to hear that she had already learned about it.
Smiling, An Xiaoning said, “It was on the news this morning. However, I found out about it way beforehand. Weren’t you the one who informed He Yi that I was the one who put a bomb in that tomb? Weren’t you the one who was in close contact with He Yi? You’re an archeologist, and yet you’re still so closely acquainted with tomb raiders. I really wonder what you’re thinking. On top of that… you even committed all those crimes. I reckon the police must be on their way to arrest you now.”
Wang Jinsheng had already broken out into a cold sweat. He pleaded, “Ms. An, please help me, I’m begging you. I promise I won’t do it again.”
“Captain Wang, did you not hear me clearly? You ought to bear the consequences for your own mistakes.”
Fan Shixin said, “Young Madam, the criminal police are here to arrest Captain Wang.”
“He’s here.”
Fan Shixin gestured for the policemen to enter.
They entered and arrested Wang Jinsheng. An Xiaoning sighed and said, “Shixin, I really have no idea what this Captain Wang was thinking.”
“Beats me. I reckon he must have come to try his luck because he doesn’t know that you had already found out long ago.”
“Maybe. No one can help him if he wants to shoot himself in the foot.”
….
After lunch, An Xiaoning received a call from Pan Zhenghui, who asked her to make a trip down to the police station for a discussion.
An Xiaoning agreed.
Pan Zhenghui wanted to talk to her about the matter regarding Wang Jinsheng and He Yi, as well as the next case he would be handing over to her.
Shaking his head, Pan Zhenghui said, “It’s such a shame. He had been an archeologist for so many years, and he was even the captain of the archeological team. How could he commit those mistakes? Not only did he lose his job, he even has to be put behind bars. As for He Yi, I found out that he’s a real piece of work. The Y Nation police are trying to hunt him down right now and they’re asking for our assistance.”
