She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1174: Chapter 1237: A Copy for Everyone

”Yes.”

After resolving this minor interruption, Meng Ping shooed everyone else out, leaving only Xu Mo behind.

”Boss, what’s up?” Xu Mo looked at Meng Ping warily, thinking that nothing good was coming. Could it be that he was unhappy with his performance? It couldn’t be! One Weekly’s profits were getting better and better, and the first novel published by the newly acquired publishing house, ”Against the Current,” had achieved the best result in history and was already undergoing a reprint.

Now One Weekly was making people envious with its profits.

”I want to ask you something.”

”Oh! Go ahead then! Hurry up, I still have work to do.”

Meng Ping wished he could give Xu Mo a smack. Were all those returning from studying abroad missing a screw in their heads?

”Honestly, tell me, is Rebirth Sheng Ning?” He never used to be interested in who Rebirth was, but now Rebirth was so popular that even he couldn’t help but be curious.

As far as he knew, the only ones who knew who Rebirth was were Su Huili and the editor-in-chief. Su Hai had too many things going on, so Xu Mo would directly liaise with Rebirth. He investigated Xu Mo’s whereabouts and found that apart from work, he had only met with Sheng Ning as an outsider.

And it just so happened that he met Sheng Ning after seeing Su Hai.

This discovery left him both surprised and delighted, as well as a little proud. No wonder she was the woman he admired, truly outstanding. But upon calming down, there was more disappointment.

Because she never truly belonged to him.

Initially, Meng Ping didn’t plan on digging any deeper, but without clarifying, he thought about this even in his dreams at night.

”Boss, I promised President Su I wouldn’t say anything, I must keep my word.” Xu Mo wore a serious expression.

Meng Ping had already figured it out. ”How about this? I heard Sheng Ning is injured and hospitalized, and she’s pregnant. You should find some time to visit her.”

”What? Rebirth she...” Xu Mo stopped mid-sentence, realizing he slipped, glaring resentfully at Meng Ping, who was smugly smiling.

”Boss, you’re so despicable. Even if you want to know, you shouldn’t curse people.”

”I’m serious; she’s indeed injured.” Mentioning this made Meng Ping’s face turn pale. ”By the way, it was at the place where Su Yun filed her complaint, did you know that?”

”I don’t know!” Xu Mo shook his head.

”Alright, I get it. Go check on her!”

”Boss, if you’re so concerned about Rebirth, why don’t you visit her yourself?”

Meng Ping hesitated, then bitterly said, ”Because she wouldn’t be happy to see me.” He said this, then walked out of the meeting room heavily.

Xu Mo seemed to have caught the scent of an intriguing topic, his face full of interest.

”Rebirth’s ’Against the Current’ is really popular. The book sales have even surpassed the previous serialized magazine’s popularity. Everyone globally is asking, ’Who is Rebirth?’ Even news stations and papers are vying to report on ’Who is Rebirth?’

”That’s right! Ningning, who do you think the person who wrote this novel could be?” Sister Guo held a hardcover version of ”Against the Current,” looking at it with great interest.

It was the hardcover edition she had managed to snag with great difficulty. It even had Rebirth’s autograph, which she would often take out to admire when she had the chance. Everyone in the hospital had a copy. Whether it was the leaders, doctors, or nurses, they all loved the story inside.

Just like back when people read the Selected Works of Mao Zedong, nowadays, if one didn’t have a copy of ”Against the Current” on hand, they’d be embarrassed to say they could read.

Sheng Ning awkwardly glanced at the book in her hand, speechless about the so-called autograph from Rebirth. She hadn’t signed it at all! Moreover, her handwriting wasn’t even that pretty.
