She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 855: Chapter 896: Flying Solo

“Hey! Why are you just getting here?” Xu Xianxiong rushed to meet them.

Sheng Laosan was out of breath from running, holding his hand and saying, “Luhua is watching too closely, we almost got caught. No time to explain, you all hurry up and go, don’t miss the train.”

Everything was planned well, but just as they were about to leave, Luhua got up to go to the bathroom, and they almost ran into each other. Sheng Laosan is bad at lying, and when she asked why he got up so early, already dressed, he fumbled his words for a while and almost gave it away.

“Then hurry up!” Xu Xianxiong took Sheng An’s things and pulled him along.

Sheng An was really leaving, and he found it hard to let go, “Dad, I’m leaving, tell mom not to be angry. Once I earn a lot of money, I’ll bring her to the city.”

“Okay, okay…” Sheng Laosan smiled kindly and waved repeatedly, “Go! Be safe on the road, and write to us when you arrive.”

“Okay! Dad, take care of your health, don’t work too hard. And mom, she should not get too upset.” Sheng An, still young and inexperienced, couldn’t help but cry as he was really leaving.

“Don’t cry! Wait until your sister’s vacation, then you both come back together.”

“Yeah! Boo hoo hoo… Dad, I’m leaving, you must miss me!”

“Of course, our little liquor vat, I’ll think of you every day.”

Hearing this, Sheng An broke into a smile through his tears, “Dad, I’m going.”

“Yes! Go on, go on!”

Zhao Lanzi was standing by the side about to cry, wondering why she didn’t have a little liquor vat back then. They say a daughter is like a caring little dress, and it’s true. Ah! Her life is truly tough, for she gave birth to a Little Yama, who wore her down with antics from a young age.

The three of them bid farewell to Sheng Laosan and headed towards town, as the sky started to lighten. Sheng Laosan stood alone, reluctantly watching his little daughter’s back, tears streaming down his face.

The daughter has grown up, like a fledgling bird leaving the parents to fly on its own.

“What’s the matter? Feeling reluctant?” A sinister voice behind him startled Sheng Laosan, even though he’s someone who’s faced life and death. He wasn’t afraid of any villain, but he recognized Shen Luhua’s voice, which made him nervous.

“Lu… Luhua… why… why are you here?” Sheng Laosan slowly turned his head to see Shen Luhua standing there with her arms crossed. She was fully dressed with her hair neatly combed, definitely not in a hurry, probably already found out and had been waiting for a while.

Sheng Laosan was so frightened that he could barely stand, “I’m sorry, Luhua, I… I just…” Oh, he’s not the birth father, if Luhua is really angry, it would be understandable.

Sigh…

Sheng Laosan heaved a heavy sigh in his heart, and under his wife’s inscrutable gaze, lowered his head and sincerely apologized while expressing his viewpoint. “Luhua, I think you shouldn’t stop An’an from going to the city. Since she is my daughter too, I must think of what’s best for her. This girl is smart, ambitious, and willing to work hard. Do you really have the heart to see her spend a lifetime facing the earth in the countryside?”

Shen Luhua wavered, almost losing her balance. It was still dark, so Sheng Laosan couldn’t see her pale face and trembling lips.

“An’an has grown up, she has the right to pursue her future and happiness. We are getting old, we can’t keep the children around us forever. What will they do when we’re old, if they haven’t learned to fly?”
