She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1770: Chapter 1847: Preventing Escape

”Little cutie, are you okay?” Qin Yue immediately put on a pleasing expression.

Everyone outside saw it with their own eyes, wishing they could poke their own eyes out. It was too much, way too much, that little hooligan is really shameless.

”You can’t talk like that,” An’an pointed out seriously. ”Even if you’ve lost your memory now, you still have to follow the rules.”

”Oh! Then what’s my rank?” The little hooligan asked expectantly.

”Captain.”

”What?” Upon hearing this, someone nearly jumped up, ”Why is the Living Yama a general, and I’m just a captain?”

”Ahem...” Shangguan Tao cleared his throat and added, ”You are currently on suspension pending investigation, so you are not even a captain.”

”...” How humiliating!

The noise outside was a bit loud, and the always-closed door was opened by someone leaving, revealing Xu Qigang’s somber, handsome face, with stubble growing on it.

His deep eyes quietly swept over everyone, and he said in a dry, hoarse voice, ”No training needed this early morning?”

Everyone got emotional and teary-eyed listening to his familiar voice. In the six months since the general left, they longed to see him on the training ground every morning.

Although they were scolded terribly, it felt even worse on the days they weren’t.

”Get lost!” Xu Qigang irritably rubbed his brow. He was dragged back by Renault at 3 AM yesterday, and after a shower, he lay in bed but couldn’t sleep, his mind full of Xiao Ning’s figure. He didn’t know when he finally fell asleep, and when he opened his eyes, it was already late morning.

”Where should we go, General?”

”Yeah! General, we’re still waiting for you to have breakfast with us! Shall I bring it to you?”

Everyone pretended to play dumb, refusing to leave.

Last night, Chairman Shen personally called, instructing them to watch the general closely and not let him get away, or he might never come back.

This really scared everyone. Zhou Hong convened an emergency meeting in the middle of the night to address this critical situation. Why wasn’t Zhou Hong here this morning? Because he was on night duty guarding the door, and only went back after dawn.

Everyone took turns on duty, ensuring the general was under watch and wouldn’t escape.

”Madman.” Xu Qigang guessed it must have been Shen Feihu telling Zhou Hong something that led to this situation. Last night Zhou Hong stayed guarding his door, getting beaten yet refusing to leave, so he eventually gave in.

Unexpectedly, it escalated today. Were they afraid of being beaten, so they gathered more people for courage?

”Get lost, if anyone stays here and gets in my way, they’ll get what’s coming to them.” Xu Qigang said and slammed the door shut with such force it almost broke.

Everyone looked at Shangguan Tao.

”Director, what do we do?”

”The general is upset.”

”I’m leaving; standing here any longer would be terrible.”

”I’m scared!”

So everyone slipped away timidly, leaving Shangguan Tao no choice but to think of another plan. Waiting outside the door like this was not a solution; switching to 20-hour surveillance might be better.

In less than ten minutes, the door Xu Qigang had closed opened again. His hair was wet, and he had changed into a new set of clothes. As he was about to leave, he saw An’an standing in front of the door, and he suddenly stopped in his tracks.

”An’an.” Xu Qigang’s attitude was noticeably different than before, and there was a hint of unfamiliarity in his gaze when looking at An’an.
