She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 711: Chapter 742: Proud as a Peacock

“Move aside!” Sheng Ning yelled with a cold face, “Move aside for me.”

“I won’t move!” Xu Qigang stood firm like a towering mountain, unyielding.

Sheng Ning glared at him furiously. Seeing him so lively and vigorous, she realized that her worries and tears had been in vain. Heartless man, hmph!

“You won’t move, huh? Fine, then I’ll climb through the window,” she said, turning around and rolling up her sleeves, about to climb through the window.

Xu Qigang suddenly froze, the image of her last pitiful appearance sitting on the windowsill flashing through his mind. His heart felt as if it was gripped by an invisible pair of giant hands, causing him intense pain.

He embraced her from behind, forcefully commanding, “You are not allowed to go anywhere.”

“Let me go, let me go…” Sheng Ning struggled desperately, but Xu Qigang sealed her lips with a forceful kiss.

The entire house was filled with the scent of happiness.

At noon,

Chen Baoshan’s modest table was filled with authentic Northern countryside dishes—pork stewed with glass noodles, chicken stewed with mushrooms, and a big pot of randomly stewed fish heads. Today was the first day of Chinese New Year, and those who couldn’t go home gathered together.

Kong Jie knew Xu Qigang had returned, and came over early in the morning with fine wine. The whole War Wolf Rescue Team plunged into a sea of joy because of their captain’s return.

The invitations for Xu Qigang to have meals and drinks were scheduled from the first day of New Year to the fifteenth. Today’s meal at Chen Baoshan’s was secured due to his good reputation, famously honest and sincere, which made everyone feel embarrassed to compete with him.

However… they had been waiting until now and still hadn’t seen the couple.

“Should we go knock on their door?” Guo Siming suggested. As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at him as if he were an idiot.

“What’s wrong? Did I say something incorrect?”

“Doctor Guo, you are the only doctor in our team; you can’t end up half-paralyzed.”

“If you’re hospitalized, there will be no one to treat you.”

“Exactly, why would you even contemplate it?”

Everyone tried to persuade him, leaving Guo Siming even more confused. “What’s going on? What do you mean by that?”

“Think about it! Our captain has been pent up for nearly thirty years!”

“Exactly! The captain just got married, went on a mission without even returning home for three days, and now he’s finally back. Shouldn’t he be allowed some intimate time?”

“Little Guo, if you dare to knock on that door, I guarantee the captain will beat you until you can’t take care of yourself.”

Hearing this, Guo Siming blushed so hard he almost ducked under the table. Being unmarried, he didn’t understand these matters!

Kong Jie, eyeing the wine in his glass, salivating, suggested, “How about we start without them?”

“That wouldn’t be right!”

“Exactly, this is to celebrate our captain, not you.”

Everyone unanimously objected.

“Kong Erleizi, you’ve got some nerve!” Xu Qigang’s deep voice came through, and shortly after, he took his seat. “Sorry for being late!”

Seeing Xu Qigang looking pleased with himself, everyone hurriedly replied, “No problem, no problem!”

“No matter how long it takes!”

“Right, right, right! Captain, just make sure you don’t hurt yourself from holding back.”

Xu Qigang’s sharp gaze swept over everyone, “Has it been a month without practice, and you all are itching for action?”

“No, no! Let’s drink, let’s start…”

Men drinking and chatting, a meal could stretch from noon at twelve until three in the afternoon. Sheng Ning didn’t go; Xu Qigang had specifically gone to the cafeteria before leaving to get her meals and put them on the table.

She lay in bed, completely lacking the energy to get up and eat. Thinking about having to return to the General Union tomorrow, she felt like she could die.

This was the consequence of indulging in pleasure. She dared not do it again next time!
