She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1817: Chapter 1896: Kidnapping Mom

”Hmm!” The little sister nodded obediently, being carried out the door by Xu Qigang, and then the door closed from inside.

In the corridor were Shen Luhua and Zhao Lanzi, two middle-aged women with sly smiles, exchanging a knowing look.

Early in the morning, Chen Yingjie rushed to the villa and saw Meng Ping, dressed particularly flashy, squatting on the ground. As he got closer, he realized it was actually a little boy dressed awkwardly. He rubbed his eyes instinctively, almost thinking he was seeing things.

Where did that porcelain doll of a little prince from country M go, and where did this brat come from? Holding a stick in his hand, with mud on the stick.

In a well-landscaped villa area, he was still able to find mud; that’s quite a skill.

At this moment, the little brother was poking the ground with the stick, complaining to Meng Ping.

”Uncle Meng, am I a foundling?”

”Uncle Meng, can you make my dad and mom divorce?”

”Uncle Meng, why don’t we elope with my mom together?”

The little brat is indeed pitifully dumb. But he’s also frighteningly smart. Not only does he walk and talk earlier than kids his age, but he grasps things quickly, remembering what others say after hearing it once.

Before coming here, he played with mud in the countryside every day. The villagers love to say ’damn it’ when cursing, and he learned it. At home, he would say it casually, making Shen Luhua and Zhao Lanzi furious. They were worried about explaining it to their daughter-in-law. Zhao Lanzi kept an eye on him for days to make him change the phrase.

Meng Ping gestured in excitement, almost ready to high-five the little brother. ”Great! I wholeheartedly agree, but this must be a thoroughly planned operation.”

”Agree on what? Plan what?” Chen Yingjie spoke, his nostrils flaring with anger, as he stood gloomily behind the two.

The little brother had already forgotten about Chen Yingjie. Back in country M, he was very young. Tilting his head, he looked at Chen Yingjie, fascinated.

”Little brother, let’s go, don’t play with this big bad wolf.” Chen Yingjie shot Meng Ping a disdainful look, and carried the little brother inside.

”Wait for me!”

”You’re not welcome.”

The villa’s door was forcefully shut by someone, and the noise was audible to everyone dining in the restaurant. The servant apologized with a guilty face: ”It was Captain Chen who shut the door, seems like he doesn’t want Mr. Meng to come in.”

”Well done.” Xu Qigang offered praise.

”Qigang, aren’t you supposed to go to the rescue team?” Zhao Lanzi looked at her son with confusion and asked: ”You were quite busy before, weren’t you?”

”Oh! I have a holiday.” He didn’t dare to tell his parents about wanting to resign, afraid of scaring them.

”I think you should quit being a rescue comrade, always so busy you hardly have time for the family. Why not resign?” Xu Xianxiong said with irritation.

”Really?” Someone’s eyes lit up as he put down his bun excitedly and said: ”Dad, I think you’re absolutely right. Okay, I’ll listen to you.”

Thus, the dining table fell into an eerie silence.

Xu Xianxiong felt pleased with his son’s deference, while everyone else looked incredulously at Xu Qigang. Especially Sheng Laosan, who had a special connection to the rescue team. Back in the day, had it not been for his leg injury, he wouldn’t have given up the job for anything.

”Qigang, what nonsense are you talking about? How can a team leader brazenly talk about resigning?” Sheng Laosan chided displeasedly: ”Keep this nonsense up, and I’ll break your leg!”

”...” Oh no, even the father-in-law doesn’t like him now.

Back before marriage, the father-in-law was quite satisfied with him.

Sheng Ning had already eaten enough, initially intending to go out, but paused hearing Xu Qigang. So... he was serious?
