She Lives without Regret in This Life

”You’re welcome.” He arrived excitedly and left in despair, stumbling out of the room. Feng Zhenzhen quickly caught up and handed a 100-page collaboration proposal to Meng Ping.

”Mr. Meng, this is the collaboration plan between the Feng and Meng families. Take a look when you get home. If you’re interested, come find me. It’s not easy to gain the appreciation of our Family Head; I hope you cherish it.”

”Is this her compensation for me?” Meng Ping asked blankly.

Feng Zhenzhen smiled, ”Mr. Meng, you’re overthinking. Our Family Head owes you nothing. Working with you is because we see your ability and trust in you.”

”Thank you! I’ll treasure it.” Meng Ping took the proposal, his figure somewhat defeated, and left. The little fat man waiting in the living room saw Meng Ping and excitedly approached.

”Boss.”

”Shut up!”

”Oh oh...”

They left together, and Xu Qigang stood tall and upright as ever, his expression indifferent, his handsome face pale. Meng Ping suddenly envied him, very, very much.

”Hmph!” Chen Yingjie snorted coldly upon seeing him, inwardly despising certain shameless behavior, exploiting others’ misfortune, taking advantage of confusion, and other undesirable conduct.

Meng Ping stood in front of Xu Qigang, his expression complex, words on the tip of his tongue. The two men silently stared at each other, tension lingering in the air.

In the end, Meng Ping spoke first, ”You’ve gone too far this time, worse than before. A woman can tolerate you neglecting her for work, but she can’t tolerate you hurting her for another woman, no matter how righteous the excuse.”

Xu Qigang lowered his gaze, his eyelashes slightly wet.

”You and my brother are alike, wanting to be heroes will inevitably mean losing a lot.” He continued.

”I don’t want to be a hero.” Xu Qigang’s voice was hoarse.

”Then don’t be one. Act as you wish, follow your heart; it’s better.” Meng Ping left after dropping these inexplicable words.

The little fat man was confused, wondering why the boss was like a different person after visiting the Feng family’s study. ”Boss, did you forget your meds today?” Otherwise, why the nonsense?

”Shut up.”

”Oh oh oh...”

*******

In the hospital, Qin Xue lay dazedly on the hospital bed. Everything was different from what she imagined. She had risked her life for Xu Qigang; wasn’t he supposed to stay by her side?

Wasn’t he supposed to cherish her and take care of her?

No, something must be wrong.

A strong hatred suddenly welled up in her eyes. Yes, it definitely was Sheng Ning, definitely her pestering Xu Qigang and not letting him come to see her.

It must be her.

Qin Xue wanted to get out of bed but found herself unable to move. After shouting for a long time, only a young nurse heard her and came in, ”Hello, are you feeling unwell somewhere?”

”I need to find someone; I need to find someone,” she said obstinately. ”Help me get Xu Qigang to come; I want to see him.”

”I’m sorry, this is a hospital, not a message center, I can’t help you.” The nurse’s face instantly turned cold.

Qin Xue was also a tough person; she could calculate even her own life, so what couldn’t she do? Hearing the nurse’s words, she fiercely yanked out the IV needle from her wrist, saying angrily, ”Tell him if he doesn’t come, I’ll die right in front of him.”

”Patient, what you’re doing isn’t right; you can’t joke about your health.”

”This isn’t a joke.” Qin Xue’s look was serious, her eyes resolute.
