She Lives without Regret in This Life-Chapter 121 - Finding a Place to Hide

Chapter 121: Chapter 121 Finding a Place to Hide

“I’m sorry, really sorry!” Liu Chun also realized that his earlier actions were inappropriate, as he scratched his head with a look of annoyance on his face.

“Are you Captain Xu’s assistant?” Xu Qigang was a well-known figure in the district, and everyone had seen his assistant more or less.

“Yes, I am. My name is Liu Chun, comrade, nice to meet you.” Liu Chun gave an awkward cough before formally introducing himself. Only after the greeting did he notice that the person in front of him looked familiar. After thinking hard, it suddenly dawned on him. “Are you the younger sister of our Squad Four’s captain?”

“That’s right!” Chen Huaying, finally recognized by someone, generously rewarded him with a smile. “What are you guys fussing about here?”

“It was because he spoke ill of Captain Xu in front of Sheng Ning, which annoyed Sheng Ning into leaving,” Zhang Hongmei explained quickly, detailing the reasons and consequences, including how Xu Qigang suddenly changed his stance, insisting on ‘rather dying than yielding’.

“So, Sheng Ning really is Xu Qigang’s wife?” Chen Huaying raised her eyebrows in surprise. It was one thing to hear rumors but another to have them confirmed.

...

“Of course!” Liu Chun puffed out his chest proudly. “Although she hasn’t moved in yet, it’s just a matter of time.”

With a captain like ours, so outstanding and manly, which woman wouldn’t be attracted?

Chen Huaying looked at Liu Chun sympathetically. “You’re doomed, I suggest you find somewhere to hide.”

“Really?” Liu Chun was close to tears from fear.

“What do you think would happen if your captain doesn’t get a wife? And what if the members of the rescue team found out that it was because of you that the ‘cooked duck’ flew away? What then?”

“They would chop me up, and your brother would be the first not to let me off the hook.” Everyone says behind closed doors that Chen Yingjie is the captain’s foremost enforcer, a real madman. He wouldn’t blink an eye doing whatever the captain asks of him.

“That’s right, my brother would probably flatten you then round you back out again,” Chen Yinghua said, relishing the misfortune. Her brother, an avid follower of the Living Yama, was someone she was embarrassed to talk about usually.

“What about Sheng Ning? Should we go look for her?” Zhang Hongmei was a bit worried.

“No need to worry! Nothing will happen here. It’s getting dark soon, let’s hurry up and shop, buy more stuff, it’ll be perfect for the upcoming field training.”

“Oh!”

*******

In her anger, Sheng Ning returned to the War Wolf Rescue Team’s base and asked around until she found Xu Qigang’s dormitory. There were quite a few family members of the officers staying here, and their residences were somewhat distanced from the dormitory buildings, to the east and west.

Two rows of three-story buildings faced each other, with what looked like fresh cement grounds.

As the captain, Xu Qigang had already met the standards to be assigned separate lodging due to his age and position, even though he was not married yet.

“Comrade, could you tell me where Xu Qigang lives?” Downstairs, Sheng Ning asked for directions and recognized the person as the wife of Squad Three Captain Li Duoxi, whom she had spoken to in the bath area before.

Xing Fang was very enthusiastic upon seeing Sheng Ning and pointed the way. “The captain lives on the third floor across the street. You should hurry up; I just saw him return.”

“Thank you, elder sister-in-law.” The woman was a few years older than Sheng Ning, who thanked her politely.

Xing Fang laughed with a hint of suggestiveness, “Don’t mention it, in the future, it should be us calling you elder sister-in-law. You shouldn’t be addressing us that way. If word got out, wouldn’t they say I’m disregarding the rules and causing chaos? My husband, Old Li, would never let me off the hook.” She had taken a liking to her at the pool earlier, not expecting that she would be the captain’s future wife.

Hearing this, Sheng Ning stumbled, nearly missing her step. Feeling Xing Fang’s eager gaze from behind, she quickly fled the scene.
