She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1074: Chapter 1136: Calling for Help

“An’an specifically instructed.”

“Oh!”

Since it’s An’an’s opinion, they’ll definitely do it.

Sheng Ning stood up to make a call, while the men continued discussing solutions. In fact, the situation had once again become a game of strategy. The Hai Family had suffered a great loss with Zhou Yuan’s incident before; they would not let go this time.

Persuasion was simply impossible.

Sheng Ning’s hand trembled as she dialed the phone. No one could understand the guilt and sadness in her heart. The call connected, and surprisingly it was Xu Xianxiong who answered. Hearing the familiar voice, she took a deep breath and tried to call out “Dad” in a calm voice.

“Ningning, are you all okay?”

“We… we…”

“What’s wrong with you? Is something wrong? Is Qigang’s injury not healed?” Xu Xianxiong immediately got anxious, “Tell me, speak slowly.”

“We’re fine, and Qigang’s injury has healed.”

“But have you been crying?” Although Xu Xianxiong was burly, his heart was quite attentive.

“It’s about my sister, Dad. Could you please call my mom instead? Just call her, not Dad.” She specifically instructed because she didn’t want her dad, whose health was poor, to worry even more.

Back then, they had tacitly agreed not to tell Dad about the issue with Mayor Liu, so this time Sheng Ning subconsciously didn’t want her aging father to worry either. He was already stressed enough for his children, and if it weren’t for An’an’s advice, she wouldn’t even want to mention it to Shen Luhua.

“Alright, hang on. I’ll go call her right away.”

Sheng Ning didn’t hang up the call, waiting with the phone in her hand. Xu Xianxiong dashed over to find Shen Luhua, who was at home preparing to pickle vegetables. He spoke, and the pickle jar in Shen Luhua’s hand shattered.

“Uh… Ningning said not to tell Lao San.” Xu Xianxiong finished speaking, glancing around, spotting Sheng Laosan standing right at the door! “Lao San, you’re back?”

“I heard it.”

“Then… you’d better hurry and take the call!”

The couple hurried to the convenience store phone, Shen Luhua picked up the phone first, “Ningning, what happened?”

“Mom…” Sheng Ning couldn’t hold back anymore, wanting to cry but fearing they’d be frightened, she had to hold back the tears silently, “An’an is in trouble. There’s a woman named Han Xiaoqiu who tried to harm An’an. She accidentally pushed Han Xiaoqiu, and she died. Mom, it’s not An’an’s fault; it’s Han Xiaoqiu’s fault, and mine too, for not taking care of her…”

“It’s not your fault!” Shen Luhua, calm to the point of eeriness, “Han Xiaoqiu deserved to die; she should die at An’an’s hands.”

“Mom, I’m sorry! Don’t worry, we will get An’an out, she’ll be okay.”

“I believe!” Some things are simply fate, unavoidable, unchangeable. She was glad Han Xiaoqiu, that wicked woman, was finally dead, and by An’an’s hands. The cycle of karma has come round.

“Sis, An’an avenged you, you can finally rest in peace.”

“Mom, blame me if you must!”

“Silly girl, how can I blame you? You didn’t do it on purpose. Stop crying, I’ll pack up and go, don’t worry! An’an will definitely be okay.”

“Mm! Mom don’t worry, An’an will definitely be okay.”

“Okay! You hang up now!”

“Mom, you hang up first.”

Shen Luhua hung up with a heavy expression, but she surprisingly showed a hint of relief facing several worried faces.

“Is everything alright?”
