She Lives without Regret in This Life-Chapter 452 - 463: Completely Ruined
Chapter 452: Chapter 463: Completely Ruined
The director was so angry that he couldn’t sleep all night, and astonishingly, he sat in the office the entire evening. She really had some nerve!
Was it admirable courage or foolish fearlessness?
"Then wait a bit, I’ll go change my clothes."
"Alright!"
Sheng Ning and Chen Huaying quickly returned to their dormitory, where Wu Youli was still sleeping, and Zhang Hongmei had already woken up. Seeing Sheng Ning come in, Zhang Hongmei’s face showed a bit of awkwardness.
"Sheng Ning, you’re back? Why didn’t I see you last night?" Zhang Hongmei greeted her hesitantly. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
"I went to see Liu Yilan." Sheng Ning forced a smile, quickly changed clothes, and as she was about to leave, she remembered the script she had agreed upon with Su Hai, turned around, and took it from the wardrobe to put it into her pocket.
It was convenient to bring it with her this time, so she’d avoid having to steel herself to deliver it later.
Inside the office of the Inspection Department director, Su Hai had just washed his face, and his weary expression had eased slightly.
"Report!"
"Come in!"
Sheng Ning stepped inside with a straight posture and saluted Su Hai.
"Did you want to see me, Director Su?"
Su Hai didn’t reply but gave her a once over, nodded, and then asked, "Was last night’s drama entertaining?"
She knew she couldn’t hide it from this old fox, "Entertaining!" Sheng Ning answered bluntly.
Su Hai was so angry he almost spat blood.
"A place like that is where you should be? What if something happened? What if you couldn’t leave in time?"
Su Hai’s questioning made Sheng Ning’s expression freeze; she had not expected these seemingly reproachful but genuinely concerned words to come from Su Hai.
"Talk!" Su Hai was incredibly irritated. These past few days, he truly dared not go home and instead slept in the office. He feared that once he went home, the old man would hurl his cane at him—sorry sight, him running away from home at his age.
"Say what?" Sheng Ning asked blankly.
"Say you’ll never go to places like that again!"
Su Hai’s domineering tone made Sheng Ning frown, "May I ask, Director Su, from what position are you ordering me?"
"You?" Su Hai looked into Sheng Ning’s cold eyes and swallowed the words he was about to say. He softened his tone and said, "Listen, you may not want to recognize us, that’s fine. But you can’t joke about your own safety. Whatever you want to do, just tell me directly!"
"Is that how the Su Family operates, with no principles, no bottom line, favoring relatives over fairness?" Sheng Ning retorted sharply.
Su Hai glared, "Of course not. We still have our principles and bottom lines."
"So, you mean to say that as long as it doesn’t cross the bottom line, you would still do it? Heaven knows what the Su Family’s bottom line is!" Is that why, in her previous life, Su Hai could allow Qin Cuifen to act recklessly under his name?
Was she put in prison, rather than killed, because Su Hai’s bottom line was human life?
"You..." Su Hai was truly on the brink of exploding at her, but what was key was that he saw a deep loathing and rejection in the depths of her eyes, and overcoming that loathing wouldn’t happen overnight.
Finally, he had to take a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart, "Anyway, you better be more careful in the future. If I find out you’re taking such big risks again, you’ll come home." This girl didn’t respond to gentleness; he had no choice but to be tough.
"Yes! Director Su!" Sheng Ning saluted sharply, and once again Su Hai was so angered he almost spat blood.
Sheng Ning took the manuscript she had prepared from her pocket and placed it on Su Hai’s desk, gesturing with her finger.
