Tuoba Gucheng casually glanced with longing at the woman beside him.

An Xiaoning felt a little disturbed by the way he was looking at her.

Nonetheless, she took the initiative to greet him politely, “Greetings, Mr. President.”

“Hello, Ms. An.”

An Xiaoning planned to put an end to their conversation right then and there.

However, he clearly planned otherwise. How could he possibly give up the chance to have a conversation with her openly?

Noticing that An Xiaoning was engrossed in watching the newlyweds exchange their vows, Tuoba Gucheng asked softly, “Are you thinking of getting married too?”

“No, I’m sick and tired of marriage. I don’t have plans to get married again in the future.”

“Oh?”

“Are you doubting my words, Your Majesty?”

“I believe you, of course. Because you were the one who said it,” he answered softly, so softly that they were the only ones who could hear it.

She suddenly recalled the text message she received from him that night.

“I’m missing you already.”

An Xiaoning felt nothing but fear the moment she read the message.

In fact, it made her feel extremely ill at ease.

She dared not reply to him and, instead, deleted the text message right away.

She was unsure if he had sent that text when he was sober or muddled up, though she hoped that he would never say anything of the sort again.

After all, it would be disadvantageous for both of them.

Yet, she could not tell him off directly and instead just hoped that he had that bit of awareness.

Somehow, images of the innocent Jiang Feng, who had died because of Tuoba Danxue, popped up in An Xiaoning’s mind when she watched Tuoba Danxue smiling blissfully in her gorgeous wedding gown.

A few days ago, she thought that Tuoba Danxue had really walked out of the trauma of Jiang Feng’s incident. However, it seemed not to be the case.

Sometimes, it’s not too bad of a thing to sugar-coat one’s sadness and misery by covering it up with smiles of happiness.

After the wedding ceremony, the guests moved off to the banquet area to enjoy the food prepared.

Apart from the newlyweds and their respective parents, everyone took their seats casually.

An Xiaoning, Gu Beicheng, and Lin Mingxi sat down together, alongside Lin Junnan and Jin Qingyan, who “tactfully” sat down opposite An Xiaoning.

Although he did not sit next to her, he constantly played footsie with her underneath the table.

During the meal, An Xiaoning constantly felt a sinister glance of malice opposite her. He reached his leg out toward her and hooked it around her leg.

She feigned ignorance and kept a straight face while continuing to enjoy the food and chatting with the other guests at the table.

Unfortunately…

Her tolerance allowed him to push his limits.

She could not tolerate it any further.

Thus, she lifted her foot and stomped her stiletto down onto his foot without hesitation.

A piercing shriek filled the air, though it did not come from Jin Qingyan.
