She Lives without Regret in This Life

”I just heard that Comrade Sheng Ning is going to divorce Xu Zongdui! Even a lawyer has come to the door. When Xu Zongdui received the divorce papers, he was completely stunned and even cried!”

”Really cried?”

The confidential secretary thought for a moment, recalling how confident the person was when telling him this. He nodded and replied, ”He really cried, cried very sadly.”

”Well! Everyone is usually busy with training and work, lacking entertainment activities. Now, there’s finally a joke to watch, I bet training will be more energetic.”

”...” The minister, who would dare to watch Living Yama’s joke?

”Huh?” Hai Yunfeng remembered something and stopped walking, ”I came back with Old Chen from the newspaper office, and I heard him complaining that there’s no big news lately. All the reports are the same old stuff, if not, they have to be kept secret. Xu Zongdui’s family issues are quite unusual! Have him arrange for the editor to interview.”

The confidential secretary’s eyes widened in disbelief, thinking about how the newspaper editor had offended the old man. Why would you harm him like this?

Interviewing Living Yama about divorce and family issues, isn’t that courting death?

”How’s An’an doing? What about that Little Hooligan?” Hai Yunfeng switched topics, mentioning An’an with furrowed eyebrows, making his walking steps heavily weighted.

”Recovered, really recovered.” The confidential secretary was thrilled, ”I was just about to report to you! An’an already took Little Hooligan to find Comrade Sheng Ning, seemingly to discuss marriage.”

Hai Yunfeng was crossing the threshold about to enter. Upon hearing this, he almost slipped and fell to the ground. Luckily, the confidential secretary was quick to support him.

”This is infuriating.” He is An’an’s biological father, and yet bringing a partner to propose to someone else is simply maddening.

”Why didn’t they come to propose to me? Do they consider me nonexistent?”

”Minister, if Little Hooligan came to propose to you, would you agree?”

”How could I possibly allow him to marry my daughter? Let him dream on!” Hai Yunfeng didn’t even think about it and angrily slammed the tea cup onto the table.

The confidential secretary shrugged, ”That’s why they didn’t come propose to you, indicating that seeking out Sheng Ning was the right choice.”

”Sheng Ning agreed?”

”Indeed! Heard that they’re quite supportive, saying they’ll bring them back home once the investigation on Little Hooligan is over.”

Hai Yunfeng sat down heavily on the chair, not speaking for a long time, his expression changing from anger to complex and indistinguishable. After a while, he gradually cooled down, ”I should go and meet Sheng Ning.”

”Minister.” The confidential secretary exclaimed, ”If you want to see Sheng Ning, just call them over.”

Hai Yunfeng smiled bitterly, ”Now Xu Qigang’s status is different, I have to be somewhat cautious.”

”It’s not worth you visiting in person.”

”You don’t understand.” Hai Yunfeng thought about the news he had just received, and couldn’t quite come to terms with it himself. Here in the General Political Department, all information comes to him first.

Regarding Sheng Ning’s current status, no one is qualified to command.

A hundred billion foreign exchange, deserves anyone’s utmost attention.

”Sheng Ning’s status is extraordinary now.”

The next day, Sheng Ning was momentarily stunned when she saw Hai Yunfeng, who came unannounced. She had thought about who might come, but didn’t expect Hai Yunfeng.

”Hello, Comrade Sheng Ning, I have something to discuss with you. I wonder if you have the time?”

”Of course.” Sheng Ning politely invited him to sit down, ”An’an hasn’t gotten up yet. Please... wait a moment.” Last night, she had instructed the servants to arrange separate rooms for An’an and Qin Yue, and had deliberately chosen the ones on either side of Chen Yingjie’s room.
