She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1276: Chapter 1346: Escaping Opportunities

Sheng Ning quietly observed everything around her. Her steps slowed, and the person behind her pushed her, forcing her to quicken her pace and keep up with Julian. Passing through the noisy hall, they entered what seemed to be the staff rest area.

“Wait outside. When I call you, come in,” Julian instructed before entering. The boss of this nightclub was thriving locally, owning several venues. Whenever he got his hands on good merchandise, he would sell it here first.

“Okay,” Sheng Ning nodded obediently.

Julian nodded in satisfaction; he was very pleased to encounter such a cooperative subject.

Sheng Ning stood outside waiting patiently. After about ten minutes, she was clutching her stomach in pain, cold sweat dripping down her forehead. “Please, I need to go to the bathroom.”

During this time, she had learned to stammer out a few everyday phrases.

The person guarding her was impatient. “Go, go…”

“Thank you, thank you!” Sheng Ning quickly expressed her gratitude, then asked, “Is the bathroom over there?”

“That’s right.”

Because Julian had given strict instructions in private, they couldn’t let this woman leave their sight. Even when she went to the bathroom, they had to follow her to the door, watch her go in, and see her come out.

Clutching her stomach all the way, Sheng Ning walked weakly into the ladies’ room. As soon as she entered, her previously bent waist straightened instantly. Time was of the essence; she didn’t have much time left.

First, she took a look around but found no means of escape. If she walked out, Julian’s people would be right outside. Anxiously pacing back and forth, her eyes suddenly fell on the mop. Slowly, she picked it up, waiting behind the door.

God help me, let someone come in, please.

The store’s business was really good. Even if God didn’t hear her, just then, someone pushed open the restroom door. A white woman wearing a micro-skirt, retro-style suit, and a hat walked in.

Because Sheng Ning was standing behind the door, the woman walked further in without noticing anyone behind her. Caught off guard, she was struck unconscious by Sheng Ning in an instant.

Sheng Ning dragged her to the farthest stall and quickly changed into her clothes. Luckily, her skin was as fair as snow. After changing, her exposed long legs were almost indistinguishable from the woman’s, and her protruding belly was well-hidden by the oversized retro-style suit. After putting on the hat, she could pass off convincingly. Calmly, she opened the door, covered half of her face with the hat, and swaggered past the two guards.

She had heard people say before that the key to doing something like this was having the right mindset and not feeling guilty.

At this moment, Julian was boasting in the boss’s lounge.

“Let me tell you, this time the merchandise is extraordinary. A mysterious Eastern beauty, and clearly the daughter of a wealthy family.”

“Is that so?” The other person remained unimpressed, “If that’s really the case, why haven’t you sent her to the underground auction already?”

“Uh… a little problem arose,” Julian cursed himself again for being so reckless. “It’s just that she’s heavily pregnant. If it weren’t for that reason, she could fetch an astronomical price in the underground auction.”

“Hahaha… Julian, is the baby in her belly yours?”

“You know me, boss, I never touch the merchandise.”

“That’s not like you.”

“Sigh… It’s mainly because the merchandise is so cooperative. Most importantly, it’s valuable,” he said while making a gesture, “I won’t sell it for anything less than this price.”
