She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1544: Chapter 1620: The Legend’s Curtain Call

From the bustling Shanghai, to the symbol of freedom and wealth, the M Country.

From the bloody and cruel war, to the treacherous political situation.

He himself is a legend.

This wasn’t Feng Xintong’s first time killing, but it was her most panicked one. She pressed her temples in terror, staring wide-eyed in disbelief at the breathless Mr. Feng.

As an illegitimate daughter, before being taken back to the Feng Family, she lived in the slums, in a dilapidated house, eating rotten food that attracted flies. Although she was very young then, those hard days were already deeply etched in her bones.

She swore back then to obtain money and power.

But now as she looked at her lifeless grandfather, what was on her mind was the scene of being taken back to the Feng Family.

Her grandfather got off the car kindly, so noble and tall.

“Xintong, what are you staring at?” a small boy whispered from the doorway, “Sheng Ning is here, hurry up and come out.”

Feng Xintong suddenly woke up, hurriedly threw down the pillow, didn’t have time to restore the oxygen and infusion, and rushed out.

“This way, this way.” The clever little boy led her, hiding in the next room. “What were you spacing out about just now?”

“What did grandfather say to you?”

“Nothing!”

“Really didn’t say anything?” The little boy, being quite sharp, noticed something was off about Feng Xintong’s expression and asked skeptically.

He had just turned ten this year, the youngest of the Feng Family’s third generation, and because he was also of mixed race, he got along well with Feng Xintong. Plus, she knew how to win people over, so the little boy liked this sister very much.

“Grandfather just told me to take good care of you.” Feng Xintong replied perfunctorily, still remembering the panic, regret, and exhilaration of her recent action.

Yes, exhilaration.

Her grandfather was the person she admired most, but also the person she feared most. He used to seem like a god to her. But as her insatiable greed and thirst for power grew, her grandfather became the biggest obstacle on her path to power.

She feared him, hated him, yet deep down she longed for his approval. Even if just a little, she dreamed countless times of gaining her grandfather’s favor and importance.

No!

Feng Xintong suddenly realized.

She had just pulled out her grandfather’s oxygen and infusion; Sheng Ning would definitely notice when he went in. Chief Ni knows she came in, doesn’t that mean she can’t escape suspicion?

This thought sent a chill down her spine, as if doused with a bucket of ice water.

No, she hasn’t used her trump card against Sheng Ning yet! She can’t attract this suspicion; she has to find a scapegoat. Only then, after dealing with Sheng Ning, can she become the family head rightfully.

All the attention and the dying words given before her grandfather’s incident, those were honors only heirs could receive.

Once Sheng Ning is dead, she will be the new family head.

“Sister, why are you looking at me like that?” The little boy felt a chill from her gaze, “What’s wrong? Is grandfather not well?”

Being young, he didn’t yet understand the cruelty of the Feng Family, naively believing Feng Xintong had simply gone in to visit her grandfather.

“Nothing.” Feng Xintong knelt down, gently said, “Xiao Kai, go to grandfather’s room and see him too! He really wants to see you one last time.”

“Really?” Xiao Kai asked in surprise, “Grandfather still remembers me?”
