She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 921: Chapter 967: Can’t Escape Responsibility

Zhou Yuan couldn’t just sit at home and wait, she was going to take the initiative.

Sheng Ning couldn’t help but laugh; she was now very much looking forward to what moves Zhou Yuan and Hai Lan would make. No matter what they did, someone would suffer, they couldn’t escape responsibility.

Hmph! They really thought her sister was easy to bully, that they could just toy with her as they liked.

At this moment, Zhou Yuan was indeed very anxious, because just when President Zhu came to question An’an, Group Leader Liu also went to August 1 Hospital to question Hai Lan. As one of the parties involved, she couldn’t escape responsibility either.

Originally intending to frame others, she ended up bringing trouble upon herself, leaving Zhou Yuan almost fainting from anger.

”Dad, can I not be questioned?” Hai Lan lay on the bed pitifully, ”What does it have to do with me? I’m also a victim, why would they question me?”

Hai Shuangjie, upon hearing that the union wanted to send someone to inquire, rushed over first, feeling sorry for his daughter.

”It has nothing to do with you, just say what you can. Where’s your mom? Didn’t she take leave to take care of you? Why isn’t she here?”

”There was an emergency at work, she went back temporarily.”

”What kind of emergency could she have?” It wasn’t that Hai Shuangjie looked down on Zhou Yuan, but her position was purely a leisurely one, mostly approving applications, with almost nothing to do.

”I’ll have Group Leader Liu come in, just cooperate a bit.”

Hai Lan clutched the quilt tightly, putting on a humiliated expression, ”Dad, I was stabbed for no reason, and now I can’t even get out of bed. And now someone comes to question me, isn’t this an insult to me?”

Hai Shuangjie’s face was very unpleasant; before coming, he had gone to see his older brother, hoping to gain his support, but his brother refused to let him intervene.

He said the two family’s patriarchs had already reached an agreement not to interfere with each other. Just wait for the investigation results, if they are innocent, then there’s nothing to be afraid of. A thorough investigation will prove Hai Lan’s innocence.

Initially, Hai Shuangjie disagreed, but thinking about Mr. Su’s protective attitude, he could only accept it. Otherwise, if the Su Family and Hai Family clashed, it would only benefit others, making them a laughing stock.

Besides, Dad and Mr. Su had been brothers all their lives; there’s no way they would fall out over such a small issue.

Mr. Su’s favoritism towards his granddaughter had reached an outrageous level, to the extent that even Su Huai’an, his only grandson, wasn’t as important as Sheng Ning in his eyes. Given this situation, Dad would certainly choose to yield in the end.

After all, Lanlan was adopted and had made many mistakes before; if the situation became irreconcilable, she would inevitably be abandoned.

Hai Shuangjie clenched his fists tightly; Lanlan not being his biological child was always a regret in his heart.

”Dad, my stomach hurts, my head hurts, my whole body doesn’t feel well.” Hai Lan rolled her eyes, appearing weak as if she was about to faint.

Hai Shuangjie, not being a fool, looked at her doubtfully and said, ”Lanlan, could it be that you’re feeling guilty?”

”How could that be?” If not for her injuries, Hai Lan could have jumped up fiercely. ”I’m the victim.”

”Since you’re the victim, you must undergo the investigation. You can’t escape this, and I can’t help you.” Hai Shuangjie ordered firmly, then turned around to call Group Leader Liu in.

Little did he know, his most beloved daughter was glaring at him with a venomous look behind his back.

Hai Lan knew that in everyone’s eyes, she was just a little beggar, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t surpass the deceased Hai Baobao. Even her adoptive father could abandon her at any critical moment.
