She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 316: Chapter 322: Getting Serious

His heart was cold and cruel. He only showed a different side to his own family, but when facing Sheng Ning, he would unconsciously give her patience and closeness.

“What… what are you looking at?” Sheng Ning felt uneasy under his gaze, thinking, Is this future mayor out of his mind?

“The script is well-written. How did your brain come up with this?”

Sheng Ning quietly sighed in relief, “There isn’t any reward anyway!” She decided, her next idea would be sold to the city theater company, believing it would be much more generous than Su Hai.

“Still want a reward? Isn’t Wu Youli a reward? Weren’t your previous punishments rewards?” Su Hai widened his eyes, “Girl, your appetite is quite big!”

“What about Wu Youli?” Sheng Ning wouldn’t admit it! Although it was her condition, she believed Su Hai wouldn’t speak of it now.

Everyone was intelligent, and it was enough that they understood each other silently.

“Could it be that you think Wu Youli didn’t act well?” Sheng Ning retorted, believing that anyone who had seen Wu Youli’s performance would find her truly suitable.

This script was originally written for Wu Youli.

“Then should I thank you for selecting such a talented individual for me?”

“You’re welcome!”

Su Hai discovered the rascal side of Sheng Ning, and he was even more pleased. Indeed, she possessed the flair of his younger days.

“Take some time in the next few days to cook something nice for the old man in our house.”

“What?” Sheng Ning responded in shock, “You called me here just for this?”

“What else?” Su Hai responded, “Or write me another script?”

“Keep dreaming!”

“I think you’re the one dreaming!” Su Hai reached out and tapped her forehead, leaving them both stunned after the act.

In Sheng Ning’s eyes was astonishment and anger, almost unmasked.

Su Hai looked at his hand and gave a bitter smile.

“If Director Su has nothing else, I’ll be leaving.”

“Wait!” Su Hai’s face hardened, carrying an undeniable assertiveness, “If you don’t want everyone to know that you’re ‘Rebirth’ the writer, you’d better do as I say!”

Sheng Ning turned back furiously, with flames seemingly blazing in her beautiful eyes.

She hated the Su family to death; she wanted nothing to do with that place in this lifetime. She couldn’t forget how Qin Cuifen was doted upon, placed on a pedestal, and revered as a princess in her previous life.

Su Hai, this cunning fox, she had thought this life might not be as bad! Now it seemed she was too naive. A villain was a villain, no matter where they were, they would go to any lengths to achieve their purpose.

“What if I refuse?” She spoke deliberately and slowly.

“Not going?” Su Hai chuckled coldly, “You can try and see if there’s anything Su Hai can’t do.”

“You…” She dared not try, she was not the fool of her previous life. Su Hai’s tactics made her shudder even now. Even Meng Xingzhi or Meng Ping were slightly inferior when compared to Su Hai’s deep scheming.

Wasn’t her miserable fate in the past life not a painful enough lesson?

“Alright, you can leave!” Su Hai felt a bit suffocated by the hatred in Sheng Ning’s eyes and impatiently waved his hand to dismiss her.

Sheng Ning clenched her teeth and left, feeling aggrieved.

After leaving Su Hai’s office, she leaned against the wall, swaying and nearly falling. Fortunately, a strong arm reached out in time to stop her from falling.

“Are you alright?” A deep, sensual voice echoed in her ear, Sheng Ning blinked confusedly. The handsome man in front of her stood tall, emanating an aura of abstinence that almost made her think she was dreaming.
