She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 392: Chapter 402: Arrest Them All

“Aunt Qiu Bai, you have to stand up for Liu Yilan, you must save her. She must not be disfigured.” Yang Xiaoman’s words indeed confirmed everyone’s suspicions.

The jeep’s brakes screeched harshly as Xu Qigang drove at a speed of 180 mph to the General Union. From a distance, he noticed the unusual scene and without a word, picked up Liu Yilan and put her in the back seat.

“Chen Yingjie, you hold her steady, take good care of her! Everyone else, step back. I’m going ahead to take her to the hospital immediately.”

“Okay, okay…” Chen Huaying wiped away tears and followed Yang Xiaoman into the car.

Xu Qigang came and went like the wind, leaving the rest feeling the icy chill emanating from Yang Wenying, making them shiver uncontrollably.

“Someone! Arrest all of them,” Yang Wenying ordered, pausing after each word.

No sooner had she finished speaking than a dozen armed individuals, without saying a word, apprehended everyone with a set of standard restraints, pressing their hands behind their backs to the ground.

“Lock them all up; without my permission, no one is allowed to see them, not even if the emperor comes.” Yang Wenying was thoroughly infuriated when she saw Liu Yilan’s face and her mind went blank for a moment.

These were her own people, no better than fishwives at the market.

Yang Wenying felt her face burning with embarrassment; she had never been so humiliated.

At such a time, anyone with any sense would not dare to contradict Yang Wenying, for fear of being fired on the spot.

Even Hai Lan had to swallow her anger for the time being.

Qin Cuifen was eager to make a scene but as her agitated brain cooled down, she shivered all over.

Liu Yilan disfigured because of her?

Qin Cuifen was ridden with fear, knowing all too well what her own hands were capable of. As a child, she had disfigured someone who now lived hiding their ugly face, too ashamed to meet people.

Outside the hospital’s emergency room, Chen Huaying approached Xu Qigang with regret. “Thank you, Captain Xu, for going out of your way to bring her.”

“She’s Xiao Ning’s friend,” Xu Qigang said succinctly, but Chen Huaying quickly understood.

Because Liu Yilan was Sheng Ning’s friend, he would certainly do this.

“Thank you! I suddenly feel a bit jealous of their friendship,” said Chen Huaying with a bitter smile. In just one day, she felt as if a year had passed.

The events had caught her off guard, and it still felt like a dream.

“I hope Liu Yilan will be alright.”

Xu Qigang remained silent. He had seen the wound, and even if it didn’t leave a scar, it would still leave a noticeable mark. That’s a huge blow for a young girl.

“How is Xiao Ning?” Xu Qigang asked, his voice hoarse. His heart was still anxiously focused on that girl, wishing he could rush to her side immediately.

Chen Huaying pursed her lips, thought for a moment, and tried to summarize the events in the simplest terms. “Sheng Ning is likely the granddaughter of the Su Family who was lost outside, the daughter of Su Yun, who had been sent to the countryside during her youth. Later, Su Yun returned to the city, and Sheng Ning was left behind in the country. Today, we went to the Su Family to participate in a charity event and saw a young portrait of Grandma Su on the wall, which looked very much like Sheng Ning. Moreover, Sheng Ning’s bracelet is an heirloom of the Su Family.”

After speaking, Chen Huaying nervously glanced at Xu Qigang and added, “The Su Family wants to acknowledge Sheng Ning, but she doesn’t recognize them. And that bracelet, both Qin Cuifen and Hai Lan say Sheng Ning snatched it from Qin Cuifen. It’s all my fault! I was the one who insisted on snatching it back in the first place… If only I had known… But that bracelet clearly belongs to Sheng Ning.”
