She Lives without Regret in This Life-Chapter 883 - 929: Couldn’t Find Her

"It’s Ningning, right? Come in and sit."

Hai Lan put down her chopsticks, her eyes fixed tightly on Sheng Ning. Her suspicion was confirmed; that wild girl was indeed related to the little tramp.

Sheng Ning had already heard that Hai Lan was transferred to the Border Defense Group, but she didn’t expect to see her here. Her heart skipped a beat, and she immediately had a bad feeling.

Ever since she hurt her leg last time, she hadn’t seen her. Indeed, nothing good ever comes from seeing her.

"I won’t sit." Su Hai stood upright, eyes quietly surveying the surroundings. He became cautious the moment he didn’t see An’an upon entering.

Sheng Ning was also looking around and stared at Hai Lan for a while. Indeed, Su Huili said a lot. In this courtyard, the waters run deepest in the Hai Family, no mistake about it.

"My niece just came to deliver food; why haven’t I seen her?" Su Hai asked bluntly, directly pointing at the Hai Family. The meaning was clear: someone’s come to your house, why haven’t they returned?

"What niece? Isn’t your niece Sheng Ning?" Hai Shuangjie was puzzled, "Su Hai, stop making up trouble."

Su Hai wasn’t angry either, calmly crossing his arms, "I have two nieces, one is Ningning, and the other is Ningning’s sister, Sheng An. Just now, Ningning made something delicious and asked An’an to bring it over for the old man to try."

The Su Family often sends things over, especially recently. Every time Sheng Ning came to cook for Xu Qigang, she would make extra to share with others. Hai Shuangjie had eaten some when he was home, remembering Sheng Ning’s cooking skills vividly. He was shocked at Su Hai’s words.

"Su Hai, are you kidding me?"

"Am I crazy? When have you ever seen me joke around?"

Indeed, Su Huili never jokes around. "I haven’t seen anyone, nor did anyone come to deliver anything!"

"Nonsense!" Sheng Ning got anxious upon hearing this, "I clearly asked my sister to deliver food, and she hasn’t come back yet. Where else could she have gone besides your house?"

"Ningning, don’t worry, I truly didn’t see anyone." Hai Shuangjie’s face showed a hint of impatience, "Do you think I’m making it up?"

Su Hai quickly patted Sheng Ning’s shoulder reassuringly, speaking softly: "It’s alright, as long as An’an is in the courtyard, she won’t get lost."

Hai Lan sat still on the chair, partly fearing being discovered. Also, seeing someone like Su Hai lower his voice to that little tramp made her heart, lungs, spleen, and kidneys ache with anger.

Why does everyone pamper her? Even her father, though clearly impatient, has to mind his manner and speak kindly to her.

"And the old man? Why isn’t the old man eating?" Su Hai asked.

"The old man is unwell, resting upstairs." Hai Shuangjie indeed had some minor issues, like excessively favoring his daughter. But with his father, he truly was filial.

The old man had been so worried about Bao’er recently that he couldn’t eat or sleep. Today he went straight upstairs after returning from the Su Family. Sometimes, he’d wonder why Bao’er didn’t just die outright. Why the new news after all these years suggesting she’s not dead?

Either find her or let her simply die out there. This constant uncertainty drags on day by day; the elder brother and the old man are both mentally and physically exhausted, making life difficult for the whole family.

"Alright, we’ll go search elsewhere." Su Hai led Sheng Ning outside, and as soon as they were outside, Sheng Ning shook off his hand.

"Why are you giving up so easily? I think An’an’s disappearance must be related to their family."
