She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 917: Chapter 963: We’re Just Friends

Zhao Lanzi came out of An’an’s room and waved at Sheng Ning, ”Ningning, come quickly, An’an is awake.”

”Really?” Sheng Ning’s eyes lit up with joy as she entered the room and indeed found An’an awake, sitting on the bed drinking water.

”Sis.” An’an put down the cup, staring at her in a daze.

”What’s up? You look dumbfounded?” Sheng Ning sat by the bed, smiling at her.

”No!” An’an shook her head, ”I heard from uncle and aunt that you bravely saved me. I... I’m really grateful to you.” Though she had always firmly believed her sister would come to rescue her, she had been anxious. Sheng Ning had so many bad deeds since she was young, and only improved after joining the General Union, so waking up and hearing what everyone said finally put her at ease.

Sis really has changed for the better, won’t bully her, and even protects her, which is truly great.

Sheng Ning reached out and ruffled her hair, ”I’m your sister, of course, I would save you.”

”But you’re amazing!” An’an clenched her fists, mimicking a punching action, ”I heard you gave that nasty woman a beating? Did you teach her a good lesson?”

”Of course, people like that need to know they’re messing with the wrong person.”

Zhao Lanzi was giving Sheng Ning a look from the side, afraid to scare An’an by mentioning that Sheng Ning had stabbed the woman.

Previously, she had worried that her son and daughter-in-law would be bullied, but seeing how formidable her daughter-in-law was now, she felt quite relieved. Sometimes, you just can’t be a pushover.

”That’s great, I’ll beat her up every time I see her from now on.”

”Remember, her name is Hai Lan, she’s Grandpa Hai’s granddaughter. If you want to confront someone in the future, you should know her name.”

”Got it! Don’t worry! Hai Lan, huh!” An’an wrinkled her little nose and made a face at her.

”Why are you so silly? Why didn’t you tell others you are my sister? We look so similar, people would believe it if you said so.”

”We don’t look alike at all!” An’an grumbled, ”Your skin is fairer, your eyes are prettier, you are overall more beautiful than I am.”

”Hahaha...” Everyone couldn’t help but laugh.

”You are pretty too!” Sheng Ning shook her head and smiled, ”If you weren’t, would Qi Lei like you?”

”What are you talking about?” An’an said with a serious face, correcting her, ”Qi Lei is Qi Mei’s brother; we’re just friends.”

”I don’t believe it.”

”Really, Qi Lei told me he likes another girl.” Then she added seriously and maturely, ”Sis, how can you talk about these things in front of an unmarried girl? You’re setting a bad example.”

”You little brat, how dare you talk back to me? As a married woman, why shouldn’t I talk about it?” Sheng Ning pretended to want to hit her.

”Oh, by the way, sis, the weapon on me was also stuffed into my pocket by her.” An’an finally understood, ”I remember now, when I was about to go home, she deliberately knocked me down, must have taken that chance to sneak it into my pocket, definitely.”

”I know.”

”You figured it out?”

”Yes!” Sheng Ning nodded, ”I just went to see Hai Lan and figured everything out.”

”Sis, you’re amazing.” An’an gave her a thumbs up.

”Of course, and you will become amazing too in the future.” Sheng Ning believed that An’an, still young and with little experience, would one day become strong enough to protect those she cares about.

That night, Sheng Ning stayed nearby in Xu Qigang’s hospital room since not many people were needed to watch over him. Zhao Lanzi and Xu Xianxiong returned to the guest house, while An’an lay on the bed alone, staring at the white ceiling light with her eyes closed in anguish.

After finally falling asleep, she woke again with a start.
