She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 246: Chapter 251: Worlds Apart Chapter 246: Chapter 251: Worlds Apart “Asshole, let go of me right now, or I’ll beat you to death,” Chen Yingjie fumed, his eyes reddening as he waved his fists menacingly.

This was audacious, daring to flirt with the Captain’s wife right in front of him.

They were taking the War Wolf Rescue Team too lightly.

“Su Huai’an, are you openly declaring war against the entire War Wolf Rescue Team?” Chen Yingjie ground his teeth as he spoke.

Sheng Ning suddenly woke up, followed by a tidal wave of anger. Like a startled rabbit, she quickly escaped from Su Huai’an and hid behind Liu Yilan, scared out of her wits.

She was genuinely afraid, trembling all over.

In her past life, she had suffered too much, endlessly ridiculed and shamed for her behavior. After her rebirth, she was careful and cautious, wanting nothing more than to live a quiet, honest life.

In this life, she wanted to avoid trouble at all costs. The Su Family was a force she could not afford to offend; although she had no contact with Su Huai’an in her previous life, his reputation was well-known to her, and all of the Su family members were enemies she was eager to avoid.

Had she known such an event would occur today, she would never have come to the General Union Courtyard.

Liu Yilan sensed Sheng Ning’s fear, puzzled but instinctively shielding her with his own body.

“Cough, cough…” Mr. Su soon became alert, swiftly nodding his head after reflecting. Watching his grandson acting foolish, he coughed loudly, “You damned boy, won’t you apologize? You’ve scared the poor girl!”

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean anything by it,” Su Huai’an blushed, quickly apologizing. The more he explained, the more suspicious it became. After he spoke, he pursed his lips and silently cursed himself for being stupid.

Eventually, he bowed his head and sincerely apologized, “I hope you won’t mind.”

Others also looked at Sheng Ning, her earlier behavior quite odd! Indeed, everyone noticed that Su Huai’an meant no harm.

He merely tried to intervene when he saw Chen Huaying hitting her.

Why she reacted this way was a mystery? Seeking attention? No, after spending time with her, everyone had come to understand Sheng Ning’s character.

She wasn’t one to seek fame by stirring controversy, and moreover, she was exceptionally talented and diligent. Someone like her didn’t have to worry about being overshadowed or facing failure in the future.

Seeking controversy was just a foolish act of the mindless.

“Are you alright?” Liu Yilan believed there must be something others didn’t know about Sheng Ning.

Sheng Ning shook her head, looking at the stern Mr. Su and her face paled slightly.

“I’m fine!” She forced a smile at Su Huai’an and awkwardly tried to brighten her expression. “Thanks just now!”

She remembered Mr. Su from her past life, after Qin Cuifen was recognized and taken back. Mr. Su threw a grand eighteenth birthday party for Qin Cuifen.

All the leading district authorities were present, and the room was filled with influential figures. Qin Cuifen, a country girl, was elevated to a princess by the Su Family, making a high-profile entrance arm in arm with Mr. Su amid the gaze of countless onlookers.

Favor and adoration converged in one life, catapulting her to the ranks of the most powerful and prestigious heiresses. Even Chen Huaying, Liu Yilan, and Hai Lan had to keep their distance.

Back then, as Qin Cuifen’s fellow villager and ‘best friend,’ she too had been invited to attend her birthday party.

Both the same age, she was only half a year older than Qin Cuifen, yet their fates were worlds apart.

Standing alone in the corner, wearing washed-out white clothes and rustic farmer’s cloth shoes, she appeared as pitiful as a little beggar.
