She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 256: Chapter 261: Future Second Sister-in-Law Chapter 256: Chapter 261: Future Second Sister-in-Law Every day, she anticipated Meng Ping’s return, her eyes nearly worn out from looking.

“Where on earth has he gone?” Chen Huaying raised her eyebrows in surprise. “I even heard it’s some kind of economic development zone dreamed up by Mr. Xiaoping, and money is everywhere!”

“Ha ha ha…” The little fat man chuckled with a forced laugh and handed over the bracelet, deftly changing the subject. “This bracelet isn’t really worth much, what do you want with this thing?”

“It’s a friend’s!” Chen Huaying glanced at it and then slipped the bracelet into her pocket before walking off with Lu Dabao.

“Thanks! I’ll treat you to a meal another day.”

“No need, my picking up the item for you comes with conditions.” The little fat man grinned slyly.

Chen Huaying turned away with disgust. “Spit it out! What do you want?” Ever since he was little, this fat kid had been sleazy; she thought he might improve as he got older, but apparently tagging along with Meng Ping only made him worse.

His grandfather was an old comrade-in-arms, a man of integrity throughout his life. How did he end up with such a sleazy grandson?

“I want to ask you something. I hear you’re living with Comrade Sheng Ning?” Keeping an eye on Sheng Ning was one of the tasks entrusted by his brother during a phone call the previous day. If not for that, he wouldn’t even know his brother had gone to Hong Kong!

Chen Huaying looked at him warily. “What do you want? You have a thing for our Song and Dance Troupe’s belle too? You don’t even look in the mirror to see your worthiness! You’d better get that idea out of your head fast.”

“I did look in the mirror. I look in the mirror every day.” As if he would dare to have such thoughts! His brother would flay him alive!

“It’s for our Second Brother that I’m asking.”

“Meng Ping?” Chen Huaying recalled the incident where Meng Ping had charged into the Qianjin Dance Troupe and whisked Sheng Ning away. Her eyes shifted as she said, “She’s doing just fine. The bracelet you got today is actually Sheng Ning’s.”

“Wow! That’s fantastic! To be able to work for my future sister-in-law in advance is an honor!”

“Get lost! Stop with your nonsense callings. ‘Second sister-in-law,’ ‘Third sister-in-law,’ does Meng Ping lack women? Aren’t you sick of all that daily yammering?” Chen Huaying made as if to kick him, but the little fat man deftly dodged.

“Nonsense! When has our Second Brother ever had a woman?” The little fat man made an effort to preserve Meng Ping’s shining image.

“Heh heh heh…” Chen Huaying scoffed. “Want me to spill it out? From nurse to doctor, from the Qianjin Song and Dance Troupe to the communications department…”

“Stop, please stop!” The little fat man was so agitated he nearly jumped. “My ancestors, please don’t go telling this to Comrade Sheng Ning. Second Brother’s happiness for life is entrusted in your hands, please show some mercy!”

“Get lost! With a playboy like Meng Ping, who would believe what he says? Not even a ghost would believe it, and pigs might fly.” Chen Huaying spoke earnestly, “Sheng Ning is my friend, and you tell Meng Ping to keep his hands off. He’d better watch out or one day Living Yama will chop them off!”

The mention of Living Yama sent shivers down the little fat man’s spine. An imposing figure indeed, a person he revered with total admiration. He was the only one in the entire district brave enough to beat up his Second Brother so bad that his ribs were broken, and yet the Meng family wouldn’t say a word!

“What… What’s this got to do with Living Yama?”

“You should ask your Second Brother about that. It’s bad enough that he’s fickle, but now he’s daring to make moves on someone else’s woman. I’m simply amazed.” The words of Chen Huaying were not mere provocations; she had always been fearless, but before Meng Ping, she turned into a mere kid, too embarrassed to boast about her irresponsible acts in his face.

The Meng family producing such a character is truly extraordinary!
