She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 341: Chapter 350 You’ve Gone Bad, Living Yama

“Sure, I’ll go back tonight and promise to cook something delicious for Chen Huaying and Lu Dabao.”

Xu Qigang’s eyes flashed with a hint of chill, but his voice remained calm, betraying no fluctuation. “Are you going to the General Union Courtyard?”

“Exactly!” Afraid that he might overthink, she quickly explained, “Don’t worry, I’m just going to Chen Huaying’s place to cook a meal. I won’t go anywhere else.”

“Alright, take good care of yourself. If there’s any problem, find Shangguan Tao at the administration center of the Rescue Association.” Although Xu Qigang lacked a notable background, his connections were impressively strong.

Since he recommended someone, it was certain they were trustworthy and capable.

“Don’t worry about me!”

Somehow, the news that the Su Family had another granddaughter lost out there spread, causing quite a stir. The Su Family didn’t intend to hide it and had already started mobilizing all resources to search for her.

The next day, Su Hai directly took his annual leave.

Qin Cuifen and Hai Lan also heard the rumors.

Hai Lan’s face turned deathly pale. Would Aunt Su Yun still love her if she had her own biological daughter?

Qin Cuifen felt a mix of jealousy and envy towards the lost girl. How wonderful it would be if she were that girl! Her fate would drastically change.

Becoming the precious daughter of the Su Family, she could bully whoever she wanted, step on anyone she wished. She vowed to make Sheng Ning suffer miserably and lose everything.

Hai Lan glanced at Qin Cuifen and scoffed, “Stop dreaming! You just don’t have that fate.” It was obvious from a glance that she did too many devious deeds in her past life; no matter how well she pretends, she’s heartless and unrighteous.

“Heh, you never know… What if a pie falls from the sky and lands right on me!”

Inside the General Union Courtyard, Chen Huaying and her group had bought lots of groceries, softly discussing as they walked in.

“Do you think the Su Family can really find this lost relative?”

“I doubt it! Bao’er has been missing for so many years and hasn’t been found.” Chen Huaying’s eyes momentarily dimmed with sorrow.

Bao’er was her best playmate in her childhood, and after so many years, no one knew if she was dead or alive.

“Don’t talk nonsense. The Su Family cares a lot about this child. They would be unhappy to hear this.” Dabao softly reminded her.

“Oh!”

Wu Youli and Zhang Hongmei, carrying baskets, one full of envy, the other of sympathy.

Liu Yilan laughed at the two of them, “What’s with those expressions? You go first, Hong Mei!”

Zhang Hongmei thought for a moment, “The Su family is so powerful and influential, with a grandpa who’s an old leader, an uncle who’s a president, and a brother who’s a professor. They must be very happy.”

“And you, You Li?”

“I think being abandoned by one’s mother just after birth must be very sad. I would rather be born into an ordinary family,” Wu Youli said with a gentle smile, “Like our family, it’s very good! We’re not rich or noble, but being together as a family is real happiness.”

“Exactly!” Liu Yilan nodded in approval, internally admiring Sheng Ning’s judgment in friends. It was worth it when she went to great lengths to side with Wu Youli over Zhao Feifei.

This friend was truly valuable.

“You Li, you’re right!” Chen Huaying also agreed, even emphasizing her point.

“I know what you all are worried about. You’re afraid I’m upset with Sheng Ning because of that newspaper cover, right? Not at all!” Wu Youli still had that soft demeanor, but her words were exceptionally steadfast.

“Sheng Ning and I are good friends. How could I possibly get mad at her? Besides, even if we were strangers, there’s no reason to be offended. It’s the reporters’ right to choose whose photo to publish, and besides, Sheng Ning simply performed better than me.”

Liu Yilan, Chen Huaying, and Lu Dabao couldn’t help but applaud.

Zhang Hongmei looked dejected. Was she being too narrow-minded? If it were her, she’d probably be angry.
