She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1721: Chapter 1798: Seizing the Chance to Entangle

”Xiao Yue? Is it really you, Xiao Yue?” Qin Xue’s gaze shifted from Xu Qigang’s stern face to her brother Qin Yue standing behind him. Although she knew in advance that her brother’s return would surely involve hardship, she didn’t expect he would be brought back in chains.

Overcome with emotion, she quickly stepped forward. Most of the people behind her were her loyal followers, whom she had won over in the past six months and were absolutely obedient to her commands. Seeing the captain’s excitement, they even forgot to report to the main team, and instead each greeted Xu Qigang politely.

No matter how skilled Qin Xue was, men have a natural tendency to admire heroes.

Xu Qigang casually glanced around, a slight surprise reflected in his eyes. He recognized a few familiar faces in the crowd, though he couldn’t recall their names; he must have seen them during his time in the Southern District.

Standing before Qin Yue, Qin Xue’s face was filled with concern and excitement. ”Xiao Yue, are you alright?” She reached out, but before touching Qin Yue, he abruptly pushed her away.

”You...” Qin Xue’s subsequent words were stuck in her throat, staring at her brother in disbelief. From childhood, despite how unruly Qin Yue could be, he always had a good relationship with his several sisters. Even later, after falling out with the family over Sheng An, he had never acted like this.

The scene was somewhat awkward, and Xu Qigang rubbed his temples, not expecting Qin Xue to show up. The President was truly muddle-headed; if anyone had to come, it shouldn’t have been Qin Xue, as it was bound to make things worse.

”I am your sister.” Qin Xue’s face turned pale as she spoke. Her brother turning out this way dragged the entire Qin Family into the mire.

In reality, Qin Yue merely had his hands handcuffed. At this moment, he stood there, slightly restraining his expression, but he couldn’t conceal the innate malevolent roguishness, a vibe that had been impossible to hide since he was stained with as much blood on his hands as he had during the Southern Border war.

This was when Qin Yue’s aura was at its peak; even Qin Xue standing before him couldn’t help but be filled with trepidation.

”Get out of the way!” Qin Yue’s annoyance on his face was so evident that even a blind person could see it. The woman’s features indeed bore some resemblance to his own, but so what? He fundamentally didn’t care.

”Xiao Yue, I am your sister.” Qin Xue’s eyes quickly reddened, standing there making people feel sympathetic and pitiful.

The people who followed her widened their eyes in disbelief.

Xu Qigang frowned, patted her shoulder, and called her to the side.

”Don’t cry,” he said dryly. After all, they had been on rescue missions together before, and Qin Xue had always been so proud. It was unimaginable for her to be driven to tears by her own younger brother.

Xu Qigang’s words inadvertently unleashed a wave of emotion, causing Qin Xue to suddenly throw herself into his embrace, her shoulders trembling with sobs.

”You...” Xu Qigang’s face darkened as he reached out to push her, but Qin Xue clung to his waist, refusing to let go.

This embrace was the one she yearned for countless nights and dreams, the one she longed to lean on, clinging to his lean waist. In the past, she lacked the courage, for she had always been so proud and unwilling to lose face.

Qin Yue’s attitude had just given her the best opportunity, and not seizing it would make her the biggest fool.

”Qigang, our family is now under pressure from all sides. For the sake of Sheng An, my brother has dragged our entire family into the mire. How can he be so reckless and heartless?”
