She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 38: Chapter 038: Where Did This Sister-in-law Come From

At the edge of the playground, a tall and straight man was quietly smoking. His thick black eyebrows furrowed tightly. He wore a sharp, neat outfit, with the uniform button meticulously fastened up to his neck, exuding a stern, abstinent allure.

“What are you doing? Why are you smoking here alone?” Zhou Hong approached, grinning cheekily. “The Song and Dance Troupe is about to perform; everyone is thrilled. Why are you the only one with a stern face? You look like you’re about to scare the female comrades of the troupe to tears.”

Xu Qigang threw the cigarette butt down, stepped on it with his foot, and glanced over at the other side. A sharp look flashed in his deep eyes.

Xu Qigang’s features had nothing in common with warmth or elegance. His stature was inherently of a domineering type, with a high nose bridge and a determined chin. When he got angry, his aura could scare seven- or eight-year-old children to tears.

Last year, during a similar performance by the Song and Dance Troupe, a foolish new female comrade provoked Xu Qigang. The punishment was a three-kilometer cross-country run, which left her exhausted and in shock, almost causing a serious incident.

Because of this, all the subsequent performances were canceled directly.

This time, if Xu Qigang hadn’t caused a fuss in the city, they wouldn’t have been able to have a performance at all!

Speaking of which, has this guy gone mad? Previously, he would always put on a stern face when he saw the Song and Dance Troupe. Why is he so proactive this time?

“Captain, Captain…” Liu Chun ran over from the entrance. He was sent to pick up the Song and Dance Troupe from the city, and the first thing he did after returning was to report the task.

Xu Qigang’s eyes lit up.

“Captain, there’s no sister-in-law on the list.” Liu Chun shouted loudly, making the entire playground fall silent.

Xu Qigang suddenly wanted to twist Liu Chun’s head off.

Those comrades training on the playground looked at their heroic and formidable captain with curious, sly eyes.

Oh my! Even the cold-faced King Yan could get a wife? Which woman was so blind?

Would the captain scare his wife to death in the middle of the night?

Never heard of the captain having a wife! Not long ago, some rich man was thinking about making the captain his son-in-law, but he was rejected by the captain.

“Sister-in-law? Where did this sister-in-law come from?” Zhou Hong’s eyes gleamed wickedly, grabbing Liu Chun and not letting go.

“I… I don’t know!” Liu Chun now realized the huge mistake he had made, seeing the captain’s face so dark that water could drip off it.

Xu Qigang casually asked if there was anyone named Sheng Ning in the performers, and the rest was all Liu Chun’s overactive imagination.

“You little brat…” Zhou Hong, not wanting to embarrass Liu Chun in front of Xu Qigang, let him go. Following Xu Qigang all the way from the playground to the office.

“Tell me, what’s with this sister-in-law? Why don’t I know?” Zhou Hong became increasingly curious the more he thought about it. Xu Qigang had spent most of his time training in the wild with his subordinates recently, and he hadn’t heard anything about a sister-in-law.

Xu Qigang’s restrained eyes glared at Zhou Hong without a word. He took off his jacket, wearing only a snug vest due to the hot weather, revealing his firm bronze muscles.

Zhou Hong felt a pang of small jealousy in his heart.

Xu Qigang washed his face, but Zhou Hong still lingered. “Do I need to make you leave?”

“Can’t I leave on my own?” Xu Qigang had undergone the most rigorous training; if he didn’t want to talk, no one could get anything out of him.

However, Zhou Hong, being the most dedicated instructor, wouldn’t give up so easily.

Due to a fight, Sheng Ning stayed at home for a week without going out. Nonetheless, she had heard plenty of big news, like how Qi Mei’s family really broke the village chief’s leg, resulting in his removal from office.

Widow Zhang had been hiding ever since, and no one could find her anywhere.
