She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1829: Chapter 1908: Another Woman

”I...” She hesitated a moment, feeling a bit guilty, ”I beat up Su Huai’an.” Actually, she couldn’t even touch Su Huai’an, let alone hit him.

But Su Huai’an was afraid she’d be too furious and might harm the baby in her belly if she couldn’t hit him, so he stood still and let her hit him. After it was over, he asked her if her hands hurt.

It would’ve been better if he hadn’t asked; once he did, she got even angrier.

”... You’re really something, hitting your husband before getting married.” Anyone else daring to lay a finger on Su Huai’an would surely meet a miserable end.

”I wasn’t wrong! He cheated first, so there’s no way I’m marrying him now.”

”I think there must be a misunderstanding; you should fully trust your cousin.”

”And what about you? Do you trust Huo Yan? Looks to me like you don’t trust him either and want to divorce him, right?” Chen Huaying regretted her words immediately, wishing she could bite her tongue off.

Sheng Ning was at a loss for words by her remark, taking a while to recover. From an outsider’s perspective, was she also being unreasonable?

So was she the one blinded while others saw clearly?

”Chen Huaying,” Sheng Ning said seriously, calling her name without using ’sister-in-law’, ”Tell me, do you also think I’m wrong?”

”Uh... um...”

”Be honest with me.”

”Yes, we all think Huo Yan doesn’t deserve such a severe punishment! He may have hurt you in a moment of desperation, but it wasn’t intentional. As for Qin Xue, she’s just an irrelevant bad person. She’s been coveting your husband for a long time, but Huo Yan doesn’t spare her a glance.”

Chen Huaying saw Sheng Ning’s face grow increasingly unpleasant, yet she pressed on, ”You’ve forgiven him, and it’s all in the past now; talking about it now isn’t necessary.”

”I understand.” Sheng Ning nodded, feeling downcast, ”I exaggerated things.”

”You weren’t wrong! Anyone would be angry, just like me now; seeing Su Huai’an having lunch with another woman, laughing, drives me insane.” Chen Huaiying understood now why Sheng Ning had been so furious back then.

The people saying she exaggerated were just unaffected themselves, making comments without feeling the pain.

”Anyway, I fully support you! I was too shallow before, considering things too narrowly. Regarding such terrible men, we should despise them, beating them down in one fell swoop.” Chen Huaying grabbed Sheng Ning’s hand, her expression solemn and almost sacred, ”We must unite, bravely fight the bad guys, let them all perish.”

”...” Indeed, Mr. Chen, National Security University’s top figure, was truly formidable!

”I’m not going home; I’ll stay at your place tonight.”

”Sure! Welcome anytime; I’ll arrange someone to take you back.”

”No need, I’ll wait for you to finish your work, and we’ll go together.”

”That works too.”

Sheng Ning still had many tasks at hand, mainly coordinating familiarization and joint rehearsals between the General Union Dance Troupe and Victoria Opera House. International Women’s Day was approaching fast, and there were many things left for her to coordinate.

Moreover, the female comrades under her command had varying skills and qualities and needed training.

She worked busily until the evening, then left the General Union with Chen Huaying. As they exited the gate, they saw Su Huai’an approaching, a gentleman anxiously, his delight upon seeing Chen Huaying made one’s heart ache.
