She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 251: Chapter 256 No One Threatened Chapter 251: Chapter 256 No One Threatened “No problem!” Su Yun shook her head and asked the driver to restart the car.

Just now, the girl she saw must have been the recently famous Sheng Ning, right? She glimpsed her from afar under the stage at the last Mid-Autumn Festival gala. A talented child, reportedly also very good-looking—just too much of a scholar, which isn’t what a good girl should be, and, reportedly, she even got involved with Meng Ping, which Su Yun found very repulsive.

Meng Ping is the only child of the Meng family. His father is the President, and his grandfather is also a former leader. Such a family is far beyond what a mere country girl could ever aspire to.

Only someone like Hai Lan is a match for Meng Ping.

Su Yun hurried home and as soon as she arrived, she found Mr. Su and Su Hai sitting in the living room, discussing the dinner they had at the Chen Family’s house that evening.

The meal was perfect, leaving Mr. Su extremely happy. Normally having a poor appetite, Mr. Su not only ate a good amount of dishes but even had a bowl of millet porridge and a piece of cake.

For the Su Family, the healthier Mr. Su was and the longer he lived, the more prosperous their family would be. Having an elder in the family is like having a treasure.

Everyone cared deeply about Mr. Su’s health, seeing him enjoy his meal, Su Hai even thought about hiring Sheng Ning as a caretaker at their home.

But this proposal was rejected by Mr. Su.

“Such a talented comrade, it’d be a waste of the country’s resources to have her work as a caretaker for me.”

“Look at what you’re saying—even a daughter of a noble family serving as a caretaker would be an honor,” Su Hai replied brutally.

“Absolutely not, I warn you not to act recklessly,” Mr. Su sternly warned. Although he was old, he was completely aware of the things his younger son would do.

Despite his gentle appearance, none of his fiercest enemies could match him. That boy really dared to do anything.

“Understood!” Su Hai shrugged helplessly, “You admire me, and I admire you too. Didn’t you notice tonight that she looks quite similar to someone?”

“Similar to whom?” Mr. Su widened his eyes, thinking of his wife who had died in childbirth years ago—could his son have seen her when she was young?

“She resembles my sister!” Su Hai voiced the suspicion that had been circling in his mind.

Mr. Su nodded then shook his head, “She is much prettier than your sister.” His words carried a multitude of dissatisfactions about his daughter’s younger years.

When Su Yun was young, being the only girl in the family, she was stubborn and sharp. At the time, she liked Meng Xingzhi, but her behavior and manners failed to meet Old Lady Meng’s eyes; she never married into the Meng Family. In a moment of rash discontent with her family, she threatened Meng Xingzhi by joining the youth in the mountains.

Could Meng Xingzhi be threatened by just any woman?

In the end, she went to live in the mountains for years alone; no one was intimidated. Instead, she suffered, made sacrifices, and lost face.

Thinking about these old times, Mr. Su felt quite dissatisfied.

Su Hai smiled helplessly and nodded along with his father’s words.

“Dad, I’m back! How could you eat without waiting for me?” Su Yun pushed the door open, indeed, as Chen Huaying had claimed, they had already eaten.

“Dad, Su Hai, that’s not very nice! Even though you called me to come home to eat, you actually went ahead without waiting for me!”

Mr. Su glared, “Look at the time; you still have the nerve to say? You expect an old man to wait up for you until midnight?”
