She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1785: Chapter 1862: I Want to Interview You

”Wait a moment.” Xu Qigang’s tightly furrowed brow relaxed for a moment. He sat back down in the chair, resting his chin on his hand in thought for a moment before saying, ”You want to interview me?”

”No, I really don’t want to.” Gong Ming shook his head like a rattle drum, then under Xu Qigang’s gradually colder gaze, bravely nodded.

”Alright, you can interview me, but you must write according to what I say.”

”Chief, please don’t scare me, you know I’ve always been timid.”

”Gong Ming, are you thinking of leaving the Special Rescue Team?” Xu Qigang’s gaze was already filled with menace.

Fortunately, Gong Ming had known him for many years and understood the Living Yama better than most, knowing this was a sign of his impatience. Uncertain in his heart, he could only follow Xu Qigang’s words.

Shixi Town

As the weather warmed up, every household shed their heavy cotton-padded jackets, wearing lighter clothes like sweaters. Only the Xu family house remained lively every day, and neighbors loved to come over to visit.

Previously, when Xu Xianxiong’s house had a few visitors here and there, there weren’t as many as there are now.

In truth, the Xu family’s pair of grandchildren were simply too adorable. The villagers, simple as they were, couldn’t describe them in more newfangled terms, but the clothes the two kids wore were so striking that they seemed out of place with their surroundings.

Each looked as exquisite as a prince or princess; their clothes were clearly very expensive at first glance.

Even though Zhao Lanzi had lived in the countryside all her life, she had worn silk and satin when she was young, so she had a discerning eye. Every day, she could tell from the clothes the little brother and sister wore that they were very costly.

”Stop busying yourself and eat first!” Shen Luhua finished making lunch and brought it to the table, inviting Zhao Lanzi to eat.

”Alright, I’m coming.” Zhao Lanzi asked the little brother to bring the little sister to play on the ground, then went to the side of the table to eat. Since Shen Luhua came, her living standards had risen sharply, and she had even gained weight compared to before.

”The little brother still doesn’t have a proper name.” Shen Luhua said while eating, ”I’ll call the rescue team this afternoon, and ask Qigang about it. If he doesn’t want to name him, then I’ll do it.”

As the grandmother, she was qualified to do so.

”Hmm! I’ll call this afternoon.” Zhao Lanzi, eating, thought about the tone of voice her daughter-in-law used when calling, and put down her chopsticks. ”Mother-in-law, has Ningning called you recently?”

”Didn’t we take a call from her together just last night?” Shen Luhua laughed, ”That girl is so filial, she practically calls us every day.”

”It’s not us she’s calling; it’s the two kids she’s calling.” The two of them laughed as they spoke.

”Do you think there’s trouble between the couple?” Zhao Lanzi felt more uneasy the more she thought about it, reasoning that the couple used to call together before, but now it’s always Ningning, and when she asks for Qigang, they say they’re not together.

A young couple should think about being together every day, shouldn’t they?

Shen Luhua thought it over, her suspicions growing, ”What you’re saying makes sense, Ningning never talks when she’s upset.”

”Don’t worry, if Qigang misbehaves and upsets Ningning, I’ll break his legs.” Zhao Lanzi glared, losing her appetite for food, ”We should go to the city and check things out. We must stand up for Ningning.”

In Zhao Lanzi’s eyes, her son was practically invisible, having no real status. Ningning, who gave her a pair of dragon-phoenix twins, was the true hero of the Xu family.
