She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1018: Chapter 1077: If You Like Someone, Go After Them

"So you’ve studied medicine, and this is all you learned?" Hai Shen had been thoroughly disappointed with his sister regarding Hai Lan’s matters during this period.

One by one, they had no ambition at all, it was simply disgraceful. So he wasn’t surprised when he heard about this, and his words were sharp.

"Grandfather, I didn’t mean to," Song Huwen couldn’t hold back any longer and defended herself.

"Huwen!" Elder Hai shouted, "Is this the way your mother taught you to handle things?"

"My mom told me to go after what I want, to pursue and obtain it."

"So you would use any means necessary to fight for it?"

"I... I..." Song Huwen was tongue-tied, "Grandfather, I was wrong, I truly realized my mistake. I didn’t mean it, I was just momentarily misguided."

"Lihua, call her mother and have her come to pick her up."

"Yes! Leader," Ji Lihua immediately went to make the call without further word.

*******

Outside the War Wolf Rescue Team Leader’s office, An’an was knocking on the door.

"Brother-in-law, are you there?"

Zhou Hong came to open the door, "An’an? What’s up?"

"My sister went out and hasn’t come back yet; the family is waiting to start dinner!" The sky was already dark, and both her sister and brother-in-law weren’t there, leaving her alone with the family guests in an awkward silence.

"Oh! We’ll be right back." Chen Yingjie had just called, saying his sister-in-law had left the compound and was on the way back, should be back in about ten minutes.

"Okay, I’ll go back first then."

After seeing An’an off, Zhou Hong went back inside.

The atmosphere in the office was heavy, Xu Qigang was already awake, his handsome face extremely grim.

"Sister-in-law is almost back, quickly think of a way to explain," Zhou Hong urged.

Xu Qigang closed his eyes, "So you all better figure something out, otherwise, no one’s leaving today."

"Captain, I’m innocent," Shangguan Tao quickly stated his innocence, "I really didn’t know about this."

"It was you who called Xiao Ning," Xu Qigang’s response left Shangguan Tao cornered, and then his eagle-like gaze fell on Guo Siming, "And you, didn’t I tell you to send everyone away?"

"Captain, who knew Song Huwen would be so bold? I truly didn’t expect it."

Xu Qigang leaned back in his chair, his entire body felt like it had just been fished out of the water. This was the first time he’d been schemed against in his life, and by a woman no less, which he simply couldn’t accept.

The thought that he almost did something that would have wronged Xiao Ning left him feeling deeply troubled.

Xiao Ning knew about it, and this little woman was fiercely protective; who knows how angry she might be!

"Captain, you can’t just sit around like this, your family’s hosting guests today," Zhou Hong thought of using a roundabout way to solve things, being trapped inside wasn’t a solution!

"Your house is full of guests; even An’an came to urge you just now."

"I won’t be eating that meal," he wasn’t in the mood for food! In his daze, his heart seemed to sink into an abyss. The sense of loss and fear, he never wanted to experience it again.

"Well... well... Captain, Renault was the one who brought this up, it’s got nothing to do with us!"

"Renault did nothing wrong!"

The three immediately felt like crying, Renault must be related by blood, right? Renault had to be a blood relative.

The office door was kicked open, Xu Qigang’s eyes brightened, and the first thing he saw was Sheng Ning standing at the entrance.

"Xiao Ning," he couldn’t help but call out.

Sheng Ning said nothing, stood at the door with her lips pressed, not stepping inside.
