She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1298: Chapter 1368: Gu Yunbo

From her stance, you can tell she’s likely a comrade too.

”Auntie, she’s an instructor from M Team at Xilin University,” Lin En said softly.

Sheng Ningyi was taken aback and unconsciously looked at the other with a hint of caution. Clearly an Eastern person, why would she join M Team? Sheng Ning didn’t agree with it internally, but everyone has their own choices, and she had no right to criticize others.

”Little Lin En, what bad things are you saying about me?” The woman stood in the doorway with her arms crossed, eyeing Sheng Ning up and down, a hint of probing in her dark eyes. ”Who’s this?”

”My aunt.”

”How come I didn’t know you had such an aunt?”

”There are plenty of things you don’t know!”

”Little Lin En, a few months without seeing each other and you’ve become shrewd.”

”Gu Yunbo, that’s quite rude of you,” Lin En said with a displeased frown, ”When you meet strangers, shouldn’t you politely greet them first? What do you mean by blocking us at the door and speaking so sarcastically?”

Gu Yunbo, from inside the door, gave a mocking smile, ”I’ve always been sarcastic, didn’t you know?”

”I...,” Lin En said angrily, ”I know now.” After speaking, he pulled Sheng Ning’s hand, ”Aunt, let’s go.”

”Alright!” Sheng Ning turned to glance at Gu Yunbo and followed Lin En away.

Gu Yunbo stood inside, unmoving, looking at Sheng Ning’s big belly with a touch of consideration in her eyes. She waited until the two were far off before shouting, ”Did you come here looking for my help?”

”Are you willing?” Sheng Ning looked back at Gu Yunbo’s eyes, whose clear and bright gaze made Gu Yunbo feel somewhat ashamed.

”I, Gu Yunbo, haven’t done much good in this lifetime.” She pulled out a cigarette from her pocket and lit it, familiar and skilled in her actions, clearly a seasoned smoker.

Her words carried the carefree freedom and untamed nature of a ruffian.

In truth, Gu Yunbo was quite pretty; at least from Sheng Ning’s perspective, anyone could see this woman was good-looking. But her temperament ruined such beauty; perhaps she wasn’t wrong when she just said...

She truly wasn’t a good person.

In her, Sheng Ning could see Meng Ping’s shadow, which meant they were similar in some ways. For instance, by any means necessary, for instance, scheming and plotting.

”Come in then! Just for the sake of the late Old Mrs. Lin, I’ll consider being a good person just this once.” Gu Yunbo said as she turned and walked inside.

Lin En looked at Sheng Ning with difficulty, ”Aunt, should we go in?”

”Yes, of course we should go in.” Sheng Ning rubbed his hair, ”If someone is willing to help us, what’s the harm if we’re inconvenienced a little?”

”Hmm!”

Once inside the gate, they found the small courtyard was very quiet. Many of the vacant small rooms were all locked up; evidently, there were no residents.

Sheng Ning couldn’t stand for long; as soon as they entered the courtyard, Lin En skillfully dragged a long chair for her to sit on, his small figure standing beside Sheng Ning like a little adult.

”Where are the people? Former tenants?”

”I drove them away; each one was just an eyesore.” It was already midday, and Gu Yunbo had just woken up; she carelessly answered while drawing water from a large tank in the courtyard to wash.

”Why so late?”

”Working!” Gu Yunbo tossed aside the towel and casually dragged a long bench to sit in front of the two, ”You know I’m very poor, right? So I work at night.”
