She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 86: Chapter 86

Zhou Hong stared with his eyes wide and his mouth agape as he finally remembered Sheng Ning. Wasn’t she the girl who fell off the stage at the party and was carried to the hospital by Xu Qigang?

The only girl who wasn’t afraid of Xu Qigang’s cold demeanor, leaving a deep impression on him and earning his utmost admiration.

Zhou Hong felt as though he had discovered some earth-shattering secret and couldn’t help but sneak glances at his old partner’s expression with a mischievous smile.

Xu Qigang still had a frosty face, not even a twitch of the eyebrows. Zhou Hong was somewhat disappointed—no emotional reaction at all!

Sheng Ning had spoken her piece and, seeing the coach opposite her remain silent, she ultimately gave up and plopped down on the ground, acting as if she were about to faint.

In reality, if it weren’t for her heart having been hardened by decades of experience in her previous life, continuously clenching her teeth and hanging on, she would have long since passed out.

...

“That’s it for today’s training,” Xu Qigang finally said, a hint of sternness flashing in his eyes. He stepped forward, bent down, and effortlessly scooped Sheng Ning up in a princess carry.

With the delicate fragrance and warmth in his arms, his brows furrowed slightly. How had she lost three pounds since two months ago?

Don’t ask how Captain Xu knew so precisely—it’s simply his skill.

With Xu Qigang’s action, an even more eerie silence fell over the entire training field.

Holy shit, were they blind?

This is Captain Xu? This is the Living Yama? Are you sure it’s not Kong Erleizi possessed?

The soldiers practicing military boxing on the east side of the field suddenly messed up their formation. Either someone accidentally punched someone or kicked someone. Regardless, it turned into chaos, and while everyone was making mistakes, they didn’t miss a chance to steal glances at Xu Qigang.

They already held Captain Xu in the highest esteem, but now, seeing his actions, they were thoroughly impressed, admiring him to the point of prostration.

He truly lived up to the title of Commander of the War Wolf Rescue Team—as long as he was still, when he moved, he chose a beautiful girl. Look at his movements, look at his gaze, even the toughest of them couldn’t handle it.

So what if the girl was scared? Be bold!

Zhou Hong’s laughter was loaded with meaning. The first time was out of chivalry; the second time was clearly with ulterior motives.

The first person to snap out of it was still Dai Bin. He shouted at the top of his lungs, “Everyone, dismiss!” When Captain Xu spoke, the words of squad and platoon leaders no longer mattered.

“Oh…” The female comrades, who had almost fainted from exhaustion, cheered and simply lay down on the ground, never wanting to get up again.

“Everybody up, don’t you know you can’t just lie there like that?” A dozen diligent coaches went about pulling up those too tired to move, helping them slowly recover and adjust.

******

Cradled in Xu Qigang’s arms, Sheng Ning’s mind went blank, her head resting against his broad, firm chest, her cheeks burning. The panic and shock in her heart were even more intense than when she fell off the stage.

This was Xu Qigang!

She kept replaying in her mind the warmth of his embrace from before her death in her previous life, not even realizing when she had been carried to the infirmary.

“Captain, what’s wrong with you? Is it an old injury acting up again?” the moment Guo Siming saw it was Xu Qigang approaching, he rushed over in a fluster, his face paling a few shades. @@novelbin@@

He had been specially dispatched from the Rescue Association Hospital, specifically to take care of the post-battle physical recuperation of the Living Yama.

Towards this medical hero, from the Dean to the President of the association, no one dared to neglect him.

It was to minimize the aggravation of old injuries to the body that Guo Siming had been specially dispatched.
