The moment An Xiaoning stepped foot inside the house, she took out a pair of thin and transparent gloves that she put on while walking farther in. The gloves would prevent her from leaving her fingerprints behind.
She made her way up the stairs.
Before she reached the room, she could hear the sounds of an ongoing conversation, though they were talking rather softly.
She stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Come in," said Tuoba Gucheng.
Upon the sight of An Xiaoning, Lin Shishi flew into an immense rage and sprung up from the bed. Just as she was about to zoom toward her, she was stopped in her tracks by Tuoba Gucheng, who'd grabbed her.
"Don't stop me!" Lin Shishi hollered at him.
"Sit down," said Tuoba Gucheng, glancing at the bed and motioning for her to take a seat.
Lin Shishi had no choice but to sit down while keeping her eyes fixed on An Xiaoning.
