She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1792: Chapter 1869: Holding a Wedding

"Who is it? Who is it?" The newcomers to the General Union knew little; upon hearing the captain speak up, they all gathered around.

Usually, Lu Xiaoshuang is a very competent captain, and those who are timid are afraid of her.

"Liu Yilan, she is the only musician from Asia to have performed at the Vienna Golden Hall. In the art world, Broadway holds the same reputation as the Golden Hall."

Bang...

Everyone showed eyes full of envy, admiration, and passion.

Even Yang Wenying straightened her back unconsciously. What had she done to deserve teaching comrades like Liu Yilan and Sheng Ning? Especially Sheng Ning, who didn’t forget the General Union after achieving success, making her particularly gratified.

"This is true," Yang Wenying loudly interrupted the crowd’s whispers; when she first heard this news, she was just as astounded as everyone else, thus she wasn’t too upset."

"It’s a rare opportunity. Everyone should intensify their training; not everyone is qualified to participate. At the end of the month, there will be an audition within the troupe, and only those who succeed will qualify to participate."

"Yes, Captain."

"Keep striving. If there’s anything you don’t understand, feel free to ask me anytime."

"Thank you, teacher."

At that moment, Sheng Ning suddenly felt that she was barely a qualified teacher, at least she hadn’t let down the captain or Qiu Bai’s honest expectations.

Xu Qigang returned from a meeting at the Provincial Rescue Center, feeling like he’d lost his soul, sitting alone on his office chair until the sun set and darkness enveloped the world outside the window.

Even the myriad lights couldn’t illuminate the loneliness littered across the office.

Zhou Hong came out of the cafeteria after dinner and happened to bump into Shangguan Tao. Their eyes met briefly in the air, showing expressions of shared sympathy.

Though the captain wasn’t clamoring to resign anymore, the occasional bouts of madness were troublesome enough.

"I attended the meeting today; it’s your turn next time," Shangguan Tao said.

"..." Zhou Hong truly didn’t want to go. Previously, every time he went to meetings at the Rescue Association representing the captain, he thought it was fine. But after the captain’s outrageous, shameless act that smeared the dignity of all men, he genuinely didn’t want to go.

In the past, when people saw him, they would say, "Look, there’s the director who’s a combat hero."

Now, when people see him, they say, "Look, there’s the director who fears his wife and the captain."

He couldn’t bear the disgrace.

"Where’s the captain?"

"Didn’t you come to eat together?"

"No." Zhou Hong thought for a moment, he had just run into Chen Yingjie and Renault in the cafeteria—those two usually inseparable from the captain were dining together, so where was the captain?

"Could he have skipped dinner?"

"Heh..." Shangguan Tao sneered; if he weren’t afraid of confronting him, he would’ve longed to give the Living Yama a good beating.

Truly unsettling, he’s as bothersome as his brother’s unruly kid.

"Maybe he’s still in the office. Come, let’s check it out; we can’t let the captain continue being so disheartened," Zhou Hong resolutely gritted his teeth, making a decision like a warrior cutting off his arm. "No matter how disgraceful this time is, we must help the captain win back his wife by any means necessary."

"You would rather disgrace yourself alongside the captain?"

"Not disgracing ourselves isn’t an option either! Do you want to watch the captain live like a walking corpse?"

Shangguan Tao thought about it, felt a chill, and quickly shook his head.

"That’s not even the scariest part; if the captain has nowhere to vent his anger, we all might end up unlucky." Just thinking about the Living Yama calling people to practice on the training ground in the middle of the night gives me toothaches.
