She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1376: Chapter 1446: The Ever-Faithful Hawk

Upon hearing Shen Feihu say the same thing, everyone went from complete disbelief to being incredulous.

Wenyin initially didn’t believe it either, but now she realized she misunderstood Qiu Bai. ”Really?” she asked softly.

”Yes! Of course it’s true! Sheng Ning is very safe, and the baby in her belly is fine too. I estimate the time and she should have already given birth.”

”Hahaha...” Wenyin laughed out loud excitedly, which earned her a stupid look from Qiu Bai.

”President, is this true?” Everyone sought confirmation from Shen Feihu.

”Yes!” Shen Feihu nodded, ”We’ll only know for sure when Xu Qigang comes out.”

Xu Qigang’s office door was tightly closed, and everyone waited outside for him to come out and personally deliver the good news. Yet, after a full half hour, the door remained shut.

Shen Feihu pressed his ear against the door and listened carefully for a moment; there were faint sounds inside.

It sounded like suppressed crying.

He sighed heavily, both happy and heartbroken.

”Alright, everyone, disperse now! Don’t just stand around here being an eyesore.”

”President, we need to witness a miracle...” Before everyone could finish speaking, Shen Feihu kicked them out, and within less than a minute, the entire corridor turned into a vacuum.

Damn it, what a bunch of idiots.

They’re so bold, they could rise to heaven without a scolding.

No way, he had to guard the door well; he absolutely couldn’t let anyone know that Xu Qigang was crying. Otherwise, the reputation of the Living Yama would be sullied.

Inside the office, Xu Qigang read the letter countless times, tears unknowingly falling onto the paper. The smudged paper was carefully smoothed out by him, and he greedily looked at it again.

Xiao Ning wasn’t dead; Xiao Ning was indeed in M country.

Xiao Ning wasn’t dead, and the baby was fine too.

Xiao Ning said she misses him very much, very much. He also misses Xiao Ning, thinks about her every moment, very, very, very much.

He affectionately kissed the letter, kissed her name, and every word of hers...

Xu Qigang seemed like a fool because of this letter and Xiao Ning’s news, so happy that he lost all reason. He was more like a towering tree on the brink of death, revived to life because of this letter.

Heaven has treated him so kindly.

”Xu Qigang, are you okay?” Shen Feihu, anxious from waiting, gently knocked on the door to ask. His cautious demeanor was surprisingly gentle, unlike his hearty personality.

”Xu Qigang?”

”Living Yama?”

After calling several times with no response, Shen Feihu became more worried and was about to break in when a long howl came from the office. The sound was clear and distant, like a lone wolf on the prowl, like a king at the peak, and more like an eagle devotedly dying for its lover. It contained the profound despair of being forgotten by the world, so complex and deep, drawing people to listen intently.

The sound traveled very far, and even many years later, people would still talk about this sound that etched into their hearts.

The news that Sheng Ning wasn’t dead spread rapidly, first reaching Su Hai in the distant N province. Having long suspected Sheng Ning might have ended up overseas, he immediately recognized the truth upon receiving the news.

At least he wouldn’t think it was a delusion like others might.

”Director, is Comrade Sheng Ning really not dead?” It was Sun Gan who was incredulous; he was fully involved in the investigation but just couldn’t believe it was true.

”That’s right! Xu Qigang just called.”

”So should we inform President Su?” Sun Gan asked cautiously, since the director had been at odds with President Su ever since Sheng Ning’s incident. Hopefully, this good news could ease their relationship.
