She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 740: Chapter 771 Framing and Scapegoating

There was a moment when he truly wanted to marry her. Only now did he realize that he had never stepped out of Meng Fan’s shadow; even in death, this person’s spirit did not disperse.

Shen Yu suddenly swept his arm, knocking all the books from the nearby shelf to the ground.

Bai Oulan trembled with fear, having never seen Shen Yu lose his temper. But she was at a dead end and had to fight for herself. ”Shen Yu, I love you, I really love you.”

”Shut up! If you dare say another word, believe it or not, I’ll kill you right now.”

”I... I...” She opened her mouth and did not dare utter another word, looking as ridiculous as a fish struggling for breath, continuously opening her mouth. She believed that Shen Yu would kill her; she knew how ruthless he was.

”You’re now like a dog that’s lost its home, unable to even save your own life.”

”Shen Yu, please help me, please,” Bai Oulan pleaded desperately, crawling on the floor. ”Meng Ping won’t let me go. Meng Ping knows what happened and will definitely kill me. He respects his brother so much, he must have found out; he will kill me.”

”You still have some brains left to know that Meng Ping won’t let you go,” Shen Yu said, looking down at her. ”Want to live?”

”Yes, please help me.”

”I can help you stay alive,” Shen Yu’s calm face flashed with malice. ”Just point out the man you’ve been cheating with.”

”You... what do you mean?” Bai Oulan knew he would never let her blame him; he certainly wanted to use her to throw the dirt onto someone else. This

Shen Yu, you’re ruthless; I will take my revenge,” Bai Oulan swore silently. Because of him alone, she had lost everything. If it weren’t for his seduction, if it weren’t for his initial bewitchment, how could she have ever betrayed Meng Fan?

Now that trouble had arisen, he had washed his hands of all responsibility. Shen Yu, since you’re heartless, you can’t blame her for being unprincipled.

Shen Yu, absorbed in his scheming, didn’t notice the flash of resentment in Bai Oulan’s eyes. He turned to look out the window, saying coldly and mercilessly: ”The man you’ve been cheating with is Xu Qigang. He has always been jealous of Meng Ping and wanted you. You can say he forced you; that way, who will remember your betrayal? Everyone will only remember Xu Qigang’s betrayal and insult to his friends and brothers.”

”Is this why you agreed to see me?”

”Yes!”

”Fine!” Bai Oulan said through clenched teeth, ”I’ll listen to you, do whatever you say!”

”Good girl! Very obedient,” Shen Yu patted her face as though she were a begging dog. With a dismissive indifference, he strode toward the door, paused, and looked back at Bai Oulan. ”Keep your mouth tight. If you say anything you shouldn’t, you know the consequences.”

”I know, I know...” Bai Oulan answered tremblingly, collapsing to the ground only after he had walked far away.

”Shen Yu, you’ll regret treating me this way, I’ll make sure of it.” She clawed at the floor, her hands bleeding profusely and nails broken, yet she refused to stop.

It was almost dark when Xu Qigang and his wife left the District Courtyard. She had cooked far too much today, had been busy in the kitchen all afternoon, and had made nearly three hundred dumplings, leaving her with a sore back and waist. As soon as she got in the car, she fell asleep.

Xu Qigang looked at the little woman resting on his shoulder, a barely noticeable smile playing on his lips. When they reached the War Wolf Rescue Team Family Courtyard and saw that she hadn’t woken up, he simply carried her horizontally. From the Family Courtyard to the front door of their home, many people who saw them were completely astonished.
