She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 595: Chapter 620: Cooking Personally

Sheng Ning grew fonder of this home the longer she stayed. She felt incredibly lucky to have such a wonderful mother-in-law. Just the thought of her father-in-law getting up to cook every time and her mother-in-law sleeping until the meal was ready gave her the illusion of having traveled to the future.

That must be true love!

After washing his face, Xu Qigang sneaked over and stealthily kissed Sheng Ning on the cheek. ”My wife is really capable.”

Sheng Ning immediately blushed and shot him a white-eyed look, hastily pretending she hadn’t heard. Even as he walked away, one could clearly hear someone chuckling joyfully behind her.

Zhao Lanzi felt somewhat embarrassed about getting up late in front of her daughter-in-law. After washing up and sitting down, she looked at the full table of delicious-looking dishes and was so moved she nearly teared up.

”This... did you make all this?”

”Yes! Mom, you should eat a bit more.” Recalling yesterday’s morning’s dark lump, Sheng Ning quickly shook her head, casting off the unpleasant memory to the back of her mind.

Zhao Lanzi was beautiful, intelligent, and also strong-hearted. But it made people irresistibly want to protect her and be good to her. Probably due to being taken care of by her husband and son over the years, even Sheng Ning couldn’t help but want to treat her well.

”It feels like going back to my childhood.” Zhao Lanzi gestured, ”When I was a child, our family had a specialized cook from the south, who often made this fried rice for me, along with Huai’an Soft Bag. Now I still remember that taste fondly. It’s been so many years, and I didn’t expect to have Yangzhou fried rice again.”

Sheng Ning suddenly realized; how could she have forgotten that her mother-in-law was once the young lady of a wealthy family?

Lately, the whole district was in a state of agitation. With the New Year approaching, comrades were training with increased diligence. Of them all, the War Wolf Rescue Team stood out, and within the rescue team, the fourth squad showed exceptional performance.

Chen Yingjie, after all, was a convict with a strong Red background, and he successfully got his suspension lifted after one month.

This almost caused him to spit blood with anger because he had already packed his things and gifts, ready to set off for Captain Xu’s wedding before he got reinstated. And what happened? They just had to hold him back.

He missed Captain Xu’s wedding by just a little. It became almost a lifelong regret for Chen Yingjie, who channeled his excess energy into training his squad members. For a time, there were sounds of lament from the fourth squad.

The other three squads were not idle either.

If Chen Yingjie was unhappy, they were even more so. After all, Chen Yingjie had at least once had the chance to attend the wedding and received a formal invitation from Captain Xu. They, on the other hand, only got a phone notification from Captain Xu, who also instructed them to lead their teams well and not to slack off.

Although what Captain Xu said was true, couldn’t he have extended a pretend invitation to make them a bit happier? How hard could it be?

At least then, they wouldn’t be the butt of Chen Yingjie’s jokes.

Thus, a pall of gloom descended upon the entire War Wolf Rescue Team.

Close to the end of the year, Shen Feihu personally went to inspect the various regiments and companies. When he arrived at the War Wolf Rescue Team, he breathed a sigh of relief, or rather, he was pleasantly surprised.

”I was worried that with Living Yama suspended, the mood of the War Wolf Rescue Team would be affected. It seems pretty good now!”

Liang Ximing, who was well-informed about the whole story, didn’t point it out but rather smiled quite smugly. ”I think so too. Mainly because Captain Xu knows how to lead his men.”

”That’s right!” Shen Feihu boasted proudly with his chin up.

”President, President, there’s a phone call from the General Union, asking you to immediately go to the General Union.” Assistant Xiao Tao ran over, flustered and hurried.
