She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 266: Chapter 271: Long Admired

The only granddaughter had been missing for so many years and had never been found. For this reason, his eldest son hadn’t returned home in over a decade. What kind of sin had he committed to deserve not even a peaceful death?

“Alright, don’t think too much about it, just continue sending people to look for her!” Mr. Su comforted a few words, dismissed the concerned people, and the group returned to the Hai Family.

As Xu Qigang was about to start the car and leave, he didn’t expect to be stopped by Mr. Su.

“Living Yama, don’t leave.”

Xu Qigang’s action of getting into the car stiffened for a moment, and with pursed lips, he turned his head back to look at the other party.

Chen Yingjie, who had been playing the role of the invisible man, almost wanted to find a hole to crawl into when he heard Mr. Su’s nickname.

Grandpa Su, you really have some nerve. As a veteran revolutionary and a former leader, is it really fine for you to be so disrespectful? At home, it’s fine for everyone to casually call him that, but do you really have to call him Living Yama to his face?

Captain doesn’t like the nickname Living Yama at all!

Mr. Su also realized that his casual calling was a bit inappropriate and thought for a moment before he solemnly said, “What’s your name again? I’ve always heard this kid Chen Yingjie calling you Living Yama, and I still don’t know your real name.”

Xu Qigang glanced back at Chen Yingjie, his gaze icy cold.

“It wasn’t me…” Chen Yingjie hurried to explain, but was pulled back by Hai Shen from behind.

“Don’t explain, be careful the more you explain the murkier it gets.”

Chen Yingjie hung his head in defeat; Hai Shen was right! Mr. Su could sell you out and still happily count the money!

“Don’t leave yet, have a cup of tea before you go,” Mr. Su said favorably towards the young man.

Hai Shuangjie, even if he didn’t like it, wouldn’t really be narrow-minded enough to show displeasure. Besides, bringing Elder Hai back was a favor to the Hai Family.

“Have a cup of tea before you go, and thank you for bringing Elder Hai back.”

“It’s only proper!” replied Xu Qigang concisely, without feeling nervous or ingratiating just because the other was a dean.

Others, witnessing this, couldn’t help but nod in admiration. No wonder Shen Feihu valued him so much; his reputation was well-deserved.

Elder Hai grabbed Xu Qigang’s arm and forcibly led him into his house. As they entered the house, they happened to run into Su Huai’an, who was just about to leave.

As they brushed past each other, Xu Qigang’s sharp gaze landed on Su Huai’an like a dangerous Jaguar, each look and step filled with an awe-inspiring presence.

Su Huai’an vividly felt a surge of tangible murderous intent, and, surprised, he turned back just in time to meet Xu Qigang’s gaze.

Both men smiled at each other simultaneously.

“Professor Su, I’ve long heard of you!”

“Captain Xu is the one truly famous! You are the youngest and most promising captain in the rescue world.”

“You are also the youngest professor at the External Communication Center.” In their exchange of compliments, there were invisible clashes, both men high in their league, with an ability to effortlessly shift their imposing auras, leaving those around them feeling perplexed but unable to comprehend.

Chen Yingjie, following behind, felt his blood boiling with excitement. This is great! Captain is about to make a move. Su Huai’an, you little scoundrel, taking advantage of our sister-in-law, just you wait!

Xu Qigang gave Chen Yingjie a blank look, and Old Sir Chen took the opportunity to slap his grandson, making Chen Yingjie dizzy.

“Grandpa… am I not your grandson?”

“No, you’re picked up.”

“…”

Su Huai’an greeted everyone and took another glance at Xu Qigang before leaving.
