She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 261: Chapter 266: Take Action

“Snatch it back,” Lu Dabao said excitedly.

“What?” Liu Yilan almost died of anger, wishing she could slap the two of them. “Who asked you to snatch it?”

“If she won’t give it, what else could I do but snatch it?” Chen Huaying said nonchalantly. “You didn’t see how Qin Cuifen was acting; it was a good thing I didn’t beat her up.”

“But you can’t just snatch it!” Liu Yilan panicked. “Aren’t you just causing trouble for Sheng Ning by doing this?”

“What trouble? The bracelet was originally Sheng Ning’s, taking it back is only right.”

Liu Yilan looked at the two idiots with utter disdain, regretting why she impulsively let these two idiots handle such an important matter.

Qin Cuifen loved money and taking advantage of others. Liu would rather pay her to buy it back than to snatch it.

Chen Huaying wasn’t stupid, just too lazy to think. Now, upon hearing Liu Yilan’s words, she realized there was a problem. “Are you worried Qin Cuifen will strike back? I dare her to try.”

“That’s enough. It’s almost time for room inspection. You all hurry back and rest! Take the bracelet and give it to Sheng Ning.”

Chen Huaying took the bracelet and she and Lu Dabao each went back to their places.

Liu Yilan stood still, the moonlight casting a noble, cold gleam on her beautiful face.

Her eyebrows slightly furrowed, her gaze fell on the sneakily returning Qin Cuifen, her lips curling into a mocking smile.

Now, though the bracelet was back in Sheng Ning’s hands, it also brought hidden dangers. She was curious about what Sheng Ning would do next. Sheng Ning’s decision would also determine her own.

It wasn’t until Sheng Ning had finished washing up and was lying in bed that Chen Huaying entered, shrouded in the cold of the night.

As soon as she arrived, she placed a chilling object in Sheng Ning’s bed. She took it out and saw it was the bracelet she had worn since childhood.

“How did you get it back?” Sheng Ning saw the bracelet and felt listless, lying in bed without moving, just turning her body to face Chen Huaying.

“It’s your belonging; of course, I had to take it back.”

“Did you and Liu Yilan plan this from the start?”

“Uh… not really a plan,” Chen Huaying said uncomfortably as she took off her shoes. “I snatched it…” her voice fading to a whisper.

But Sheng Ning didn’t need to hear clearly. Her mind raced, quickly recognizing the potential consequences.

If the bracelet hadn’t been retrieved, that would have been one thing, but having been snatched, Qin Cuifen would surely hold a grudge against her and wouldn’t let it go. It was like a ticking time bomb, ready to explode and shatter her into pieces once again.

In her previous life, she had already experienced it once. In this life, even if she had to resort to every stratagem, she was determined not to make the same mistake.

With that thought, the previously drowsy Sheng Ning suddenly opened her eyes wide. Her beautiful eyes were bright and clear, devoid of any trace of sleepiness or confusion.

She had no right to anguish, nor to comfort.

It had been during the Spring Festival General Union gala last life when Qin Cuifen and Su Yun recognized each other. Now, there were still two and a half months until the Spring Festival.

During these two and a half months, she would stop at nothing to drive Qin Cuifen out of the General Union Song and Dance Troupe.

The next day, Xu Qigang made another trip to the Sheng family.

Seeing his son-in-law, Sheng Laosan became so excited that he stopped working and chatted with his son-in-law for a long time.

Villagers, hearing that Xu Qigang had arrived, curiously came to join in the excitement.

They all heard that the Sheng family had found themselves a captain as a son-in-law. Now, the family could finally hold their heads high in the village.
