She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 317: Chapter 323 Matched

”Qigang?”

”It’s me!” Xu Qigang’s gaze swept over from the office she had just come out of, and a moment of solemnity appeared in his eyes.

If he remembered correctly, that should be Su Hai’s office.

Regarding Su Hai, Xu Qigang hadn’t had much interaction, but he knew him well. A typical schemer, rumored to never engage in meaningless acts.

Sheng Ning blinked again; a deep fondness in her heart made her unconsciously want to draw closer to him. Her waist, supported by him, pressed against his body, and her hands couldn’t help but wrap around his arm.

A touch of unnatural blush crossed Xu Qigang’s cool and handsome face.

”Cough cough...” Feeling uncomfortable, he coughed and said in a low voice, ”Everyone is watching! If you want to hug, let’s get out of here and you can hug all you want.”

Sheng Ning wrinkled her nose carelessly; she was just like that. She had already been living constrained enough, just having been threatened. If she still had to hold back around Xu Qigang, unable to hug when she wanted to, unable to kiss or see him, wouldn’t her rebirth be too miserable?

”You...” Xu Qigang was both annoyed and amused, but above all, he couldn’t bear it!

The sight of the two of them stopped the normally bustling corridor dead, and a group of people from the administration center gathered quietly to gossip.

”This... this Living Yama is not short of good fortune!”

”Quite a match.”

”Am I seeing things? Is that really the Living Yama?”

”Are my eyes deceiving me? This is scarier than seeing a ghost...”

Kong Jie, who had come out together with Xu Qigang after being reprimanded, could have swallowed a duck egg with how wide his mouth hung open. How could there be such a huge gap between people?

Why did he have to suffer a bloody nose and face eighty percent of the President’s attack, when they had both been scolded just the same?

Why did the pretty girl who came out with them cling directly to the Living Yama and not even glance his way?

He wasn’t ugly! At worst, he was just a bit terrifying.

”Kong Jie, let me introduce you. This is my wife; you should call her sister-in-law from now on,” Xu Qigang said, his right hand loose in Sheng Ning’s grasp as he turned to introduce her.

”Good to meet you, sister-in-law!”

”Nice to meet you, Captain Kong!” She was already very familiar with him since the last competition was with Kong Jie’s team.

”Yo! Nice to see you!” It was only then that Kong Jie saw Sheng Ning’s face properly, and once again, envy filled him for the Living Yama’s good fortune.

”How about it? Have you practiced since then?”

”No!” Sheng Ning honestly shook her head; she hadn’t touched a gun since returning to the Song and Dance Troupe.

”What a waste! To think you’re a dancer...”

Kong Jie hadn’t finished his sentence when Xu Qigang took Sheng Ning away, leaving the rest of his words stuck in his throat, nearly choking on blood.

This Living Yama, how stingy could he be, getting jealous just because he spoke a few extra words to his wife?

When he got back, he’d have to grill him properly; having such a beautiful wife and not even inviting him for a drink.

In fact, he had heard that the War Wolf Rescue Team had a new Captain’s wife, but he had never believed it, thinking it was just the bachelors in the team bragging.

Turns out it was true.

Having left the administration building, Sheng Ning wanted to let go, but Xu Qigang wouldn’t agree.

”Did you run into trouble?” Xu Qigang asked with concern. Her anxious appearance just now had made his heart twinge uncontrollably. Even if he couldn’t afford to offend the Su Family, he would dare to take a stand for her.

”No!” Sheng Ning forced herself to put aside the unhappiness in her heart and casually found a reason to change the subject.

The matter between her and the Su Family, she would resolve it. She believed that in this life, she could rely on her own efforts to obtain everything she wanted.
