She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 718: Chapter 749: The Point Is, She’s Unmarried

The Secretary put on his reading glasses and cast a brief glance at the object before quickly averting his gaze.

”Young people these days are really too brazen; daring to print such vulgar photos in the newspapers. I don’t recognize this person. How about you? Do you know her?”

Su Hai picked up the newspaper in front of him and looked meaningfully, ”I know her. She is a comrade from the Qianjin Dance Troupe, being trained as a future leader. The key point is, she’s unmarried.”

”What?” the Old Secretary slammed the table angrily, ”This is simply outrageous! She’s a comrade; how could she do such a thing?”

At first, I thought she was just a third-rate celebrity from Hong Kong or Taiwan which was already unpleasant enough, but it turns out she’s a comrade.

”How could you tolerate such a disgrace?”

”We didn’t know before!” Su Hai continued, ”Her identity is not limited to just this one.”

”What other identity does she have?” the Old Secretary asked.

”Have you heard of Meng Fan?”

”Of course, who hasn’t heard of Meng Fan? Speak clearly now, don’t keep me in suspense.”

”Yes!” Su Hai habitually brought along his manner from the General Union. ”She is Meng Fan’s fiancée; even though Meng Fan has perished, she is still recognized by the Meng Family as their daughter-in-law.” His slender hands slowly smoothed out the name ”One Weekly” on the newspaper, speaking deliberately: ”I guess, this is the Meng Family’s doing, so it’s best if we don’t interfere.”

The Old Secretary was even more furious than Su Hai had anticipated, a testament to Meng Fan’s truly irresistible charisma. Two years after his sacrifice, even a high-ranking official like the Old Secretary still remembered him.

Even worshipped him.

”Alright! You are the Vice President in charge of culture; I’ll leave this matter in your hands.”

”Understood.”

The spread of the newspaper was faster than anticipated, so much so that Meng Ping’s intentionally sought pusher was not needed. When Sheng Ning and Xu Qigang arrived at the General Union Courtyard with their purchases to visit Mr. Su for the New Year, they saw that everyone already had a copy.

”Hello comrade, may I see that newspaper?” Xu Qigang’s eyes sharp, with a swift scan his pupils tightened.

”Of course,” the young comrade at the post respectfully handed the newspaper to Xu Qigang.

The first thing he saw was the indecent photo of Bai Oulan.

”Oh? Is this One Weekly?” Sheng Ning asked in surprise, not noticing the person on the cover but rather captivated by the name. One Weekly would be a famously prominent cultural company in the future.

It seems to be called Fanxing Entertainment; she had heard about several popular movies and TV series produced by Fanxing Entertainment after she was released from prison.

Xu Qigang, fearing she would see it, wanted to return the newspaper to the guard, but Sheng Ning quickly noticed it.

”Wait!” She snatched it, ”Is... is this Bai Tian’e?”

”Yes! It’s her, didn’t expect she was such a person,” the guard rambled on, ”It’s despicable. This person is just too hypocritical.”

”Exactly, immodest, shameless.”

Seeing the young comrade’s anger, one could imagine the attitude of everyone in the district; as much as they had respected Bai Tian’e before, now they were equally repulsed, contemptuous, and hateful.

”Have you arrived?” Su Hai’s car entered from outside, just in time to see this couple stopping at the gate! ”Why don’t you come in? Old Master has been repeatedly mentioning it since yesterday; if you don’t show up today, I would have had to personally invite you.”

Xu Qigang greeted.

Sheng Ning pretended not to hear, pulling Xu Qigang inside.
