She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1081: Chapter 1143: Because You’re Too Dumb

“Okay.” Sheng Ning felt uneasy as he listened to him. Upon entering, he saw that the surroundings were encased in iron windows. An’an was sitting opposite the iron window, surprisingly managing a pale smile when she saw her come in.

“An’an!” Sheng Ning sat across from her, feeling helpless as tears threatened to fall.

“I’m sorry; I didn’t protect you well enough.”

An’an looked at her with disdain, “Wipe your tears, they’re so dirty.”

“Oh!” Her sister’s disdain quickly dissipated her sadness. “How are you? Did they bully you?”

“No! With you all outside, who would dare to harm me? Besides, I’ve already spoken.”

“What did you say?”

“I said Han Xiaoqiu deserved to die!”

“…” This couldn’t be her lovable sister. Sheng Ning recalled Xu Qigang’s words and stared at An’an closely. Seeing the disdain in her sister’s eyes, she immediately doubted, “An’an, you’re not my sister.”

“If I’m not your sister, then who is?” An’an said unhappily.

“How could my sister look at me with disdainful eyes?”

“That’s because you’re too foolish.”

Sheng Ning suddenly stood up, a possibility appeared in her mind. Could An’an be reborn? Or has someone else taken over her?

“What are you imagining?” An’an explained, “I just recalled some things from childhood.”

“What things?” She pressed step by step, fearing her sister had been possessed.

“Do you remember my memory palace? It collapsed when I was three. Seeing Han Xiaoqiu’s lifeless face in the alley reminded me of seeing my mom’s lifeless face when I was young, bringing back all my memories.”

“Your mom?” Oh my god! Could there be secrets here that she didn’t know? “But isn’t mom doing well? Don’t say such things.”

“Shen Luhua is my aunt, not my biological mom. My real mom died when I was three.”

“Then what about your real dad?”

An’an’s face showed a hint of sarcasm, “He’s truly dead!”

Sheng Ning showed a bit of sympathy and consoled, “It’s okay; I have a dad.”

“Your real dad died early, and it was your real mom who caused it. Why are you comforting me? I’m much better off than you.”

“…” Sheng Ning was stunned; she finally understood why Zhao Changqi looked so hopeless when he came in.

“Let me tell you, don’t think of rescuing me. When my mom comes, I can naturally get out.”

“But…”

“But what? Do you not believe me?” An’an countered.

Sheng Ning smiled bitterly; her sister’s sudden change in temperament left her unsure whether to trust or not. Fine, it’s better to wait until mom arrives! Since An’an did not seem as heartbroken and distressed as imagined, she felt relieved.

In the suburb, there is a Sanshui Town, which used to be one of the revolutionary bases. The scenery is beautiful, and the local people are honest and simple. After the real power holder of the Shen Family retired, he didn’t choose to live in the strictly guarded General Union Courtyard but returned here.

Sanshui Town got its name because three streams pass outside the town. Calling them rivers is an exaggeration; they are more accurately described as streams.

The streams are clear, and the air is refreshing. Mr. Shen Jia Kai lives in a courtyard with two entrances, which used to belong to a landlord family and later became a temporary command post. It remained vacant until he renovated it after retirement and moved in.
