From now onward, she would not take it lying down regardless of how Tuoba Gucheng treated her.
If he continues to try and kill me, I'll definitely retaliate. If I could sneak into the Autumn Palace once, I'd be able to do it again. That would give me the opportunity to kill him, wouldn't it?
She then boarded a flight back to A City and returned to Sanqiao Estate.
Shi Qingzhou felt relieved for An Xiaoning after hearing her story about what happened.
"I can already imagine what happened just by hearing your description."
"It's fine, I'm back now, aren't I? Mother, let's have a reunion dinner tonight after I pick Yiheng up later. I'll invite Qingyan over too," An Xiaoning said, smiling while holding onto her mother's arm.
"Alright, I'll cook tonight."
"Terrific." An Xiaoning stood up and said, "Mother, I gotta get going to pick Yiheng up now."
"Sure, go ahead."
