She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 980: Chapter 1036: Willingly Accepting Punishment

”Captain!”

”Captain!”

Xu Qigang’s sharp eyes swept over them and asked calmly, ”Didn’t catch them?”

”Yes!” Li Duoxi looked frustrated.

Shangguan Tao’s expression remained relatively calm.

”Were there any casualties?”

”There were two injured who have been sent to the hospital. Two of the opponents died, but we couldn’t catch the main ones.”

”Okay! Arrange to visit them tomorrow, and everyone else can go back and rest!” While devising this plan at the Provincial Rescue Center with everyone during the day, he had already mentioned that the success rate was only fifty percent.

If he led the squad himself, or if Qin Yue led, the success rate could be increased to ninety percent. But the higher-ups disagreed, so he had to comply.

Moreover, he needed to give his team an opportunity to gain experience, so he wasn’t angry about the failure.

”Captain, we failed. Please punish us.”

”Yes! We willingly accept the punishment.”

”Then train continuously for a month.”

Li Duoxi left with his team, and Shangguan Tao walked up to Xu Qigang, winking suggestively, ”You’ve recovered well! Looking radiant and energetic.”

”Heh...” Xu Qigang sneered, ”Do you have too much free time?”

”I’m very busy, extremely busy.” Shangguan Tao quickly left.

The next day, Sheng Ning received a specially delivered letter at home, with pale blue stationery and a hint of gardenia fragrance.

In the morning, the two of them were having breakfast.

Xu Qigang glanced at it, pretending to be casual, and asked, ”Who wrote it? Why does it look like a love letter?” His voice turned colder when he mentioned ”love letter.”

Could it be that Meng Ping still hasn’t given up? No way, he needs to teach him a lesson.

Sheng Ning glared at him, ”Hurry up and eat, then go to bed after breakfast.”

Xu Qigang’s handsome face reddened, ”Xiao Ning, isn’t it inappropriate in broad daylight? Didn’t I satisfy you last night?”

Sheng Ning was so angry that she wanted to throw her chopsticks, ”I meant for you to go to bed and rest. You just got out of the hospital and want to run around again? I’ll keep an eye on you. Sister Guo told me that for a week you’re not allowed to run around, and for a month you’re not allowed to participate in training.”

The man’s handsome face collapsed immediately.

”You should open the letter and see who wrote it to you.”

She held the letter in front of her, sighed slightly, ”It’s Liu Yilan; she must have left.” Last time at Liu Yilan’s house, she saw many gardenias planted in her yard, which are in bloom now.

A certain man turned his head, pretending not to care.

She opened the envelope, and sure enough, it was from Liu Yilan.

To my dearest friend:

May this letter find you well, Comrade Sheng Ning. By the time you read this letter, I will have left the country, striving for my future.
