She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1285: Chapter 1355: Doesn’t Look Alike

Once she left, the living room immediately became lively with chatter. “When was she released?”

“Grandfather is really biased.”

“Exactly…”

When Housekeeper Xing led Qin Cuifen in, he saw everything clearly and shook his head helplessly in his heart. He deliberately coughed, and only then did everyone realize he had returned.

“Hello, Housekeeper Xing.”

“Uncle Xing.”

Everyone changed their expressions instantly and greeted Housekeeper Xing courteously and enthusiastically.

“Who is this?” Finally, someone noticed Qin Cuifen.

“This is Mr. Feng’s guest.”

“Oh!”

Everyone’s scrutinizing gaze took in Qin Cuifen from head to toe, even inside out. They didn’t say anything outright, but the subtle disdain in their eyes unconsciously showed.

“Uncle Xing, you go ahead.”

“Alright.” Housekeeper Xing bowed slightly, leading Qin Cuifen to the door of Mr. Feng’s study.

“Please wait a moment while I go in and report.”

“Okay.” Qin Cuifen was too nervous to speak, and responded honestly with her head down.

In the living room just now, being stared at by those men and women made her feel uncomfortable from the bottom of her heart. That attitude of complete disregard, as if looking at an ant, made her deeply insecure.

While feeling insecure, she also felt defiant, repeatedly telling herself. Her uncle is the President, her grandfather is a leader; much better off than these small business owners.

What’s so great about them? They’re just individuals nobody respects, right? Even if they have money, they’re still private entrepreneurs.

In 1984, the mainland was just beginning to implement reform and opening up. Ordinary people still took pride in working in state-owned enterprises, especially in backward and remote rural areas, where anyone doing small businesses was considered an individual entrepreneur.

The older generation liked to gossip behind their backs, talking about them as speculators and profiteers.

Qin Cuifen kept trying to console herself, and after coming to terms with it, she felt completely different. She quietly straightened her spine and sized up her surroundings, feigning strength.

Especially when she saw the large crystal chandelier hanging from the two-story high ceiling, her eyes were glued to it.

In the study, Housekeeper Xing meticulously reported the events on Julian’s side.

“You say her grandfather’s surname is Su?” Mr. Feng caught the key point and said incredulously, “How could there be such a coincidence in the world?”

“Sir, wasn’t Grand Aunt’s husband’s family surname Su?” Housekeeper Xing had heard this before but no one had confirmed it.

“That’s right! My brother-in-law’s surname is indeed Su, and he was a senior leader.” When they relocated the family, brother-in-law was already a Captain; if he hadn’t died, he would be at least a senior leader.

“She says her grandfather is a leader, her uncle is the President, and her mother is the commander. If true, it’s indeed impressive.”

“If that’s the case, it’s wonderful.” Mr. Feng sighed, “Back then, no one agreed for my sister to marry a country bumpkin, but she insisted against all odds, saying she wouldn’t choose the wrong person. If it’s true, it means she was right, she succeeded, and brother-in-law succeeded too.”

Mr. Feng’s eyes were slightly red with excitement, “Could she be my sister’s descendent? Does she resemble them?”

Housekeeper Xing shook his head, afraid that Mr. Feng was too excited, he supported him and said seriously, “They are a generation apart; resembling each other doesn’t mean much. The chance of resemblance like Lady Zhenzhen is quite small.”
