Scum Man Cannot Redeem Himself - chapter 161

“Sister Hui Xian, during this time I have thought a lot and realized a lot of things. I have to give more in my future life to be as happy as you are.”

Hui Xian said, “Loved ones are important, but at the same time your own needs are also important, balance is the best.”

Ning Qing said, “Sister Hui Xian, I think you are the wise one in life. While I look at everything to win, in fact I lost in other aspects.”

After a couple of days, Ning Qing returned to Clearwater with her mother Zhang Rulan.

She resumed her former busy life. The rotten face incident gradually subsided. In the end, there was no further news as to who framed her. The woman, like a stone sinking into the sea, disappeared without a trace.

There was also a possibility that the competitors wanted to make First Sight lose its reputation, but fortunately they stopped the damage in time. Chen Jili had helped to deal with it.

Ning Qing couldn’t rest as the loss was so big that she had to trace it to the end.

The flower boss did not come back to Clearwater, sometimes the delivery guy would bring some food, and nothing else.

Chen Jili occasionally came back, stayed overnight and then left. But he also did not come to her for meals. Occasionally, he and Zhang Rulan said a couple of polite words. Ning Qing deliberately avoided him; he also took the initiative to avoid her; the two had never crossed paths.

All things had settled, and the business went as usual.

The days were fast approaching the end of the year.

Ning Qing’s father, brother and sister-in-law had returned to Su City on the 18th of the lunar month, her mother rushed back the day before she received the letter. Ning Qing could not get away from ‘First Sight’ affairs and was about to be busy until the 25th or 26th to return to Su City.

The day of the New Year, Sister Xiuping cooked a table of good food, saying that one must have the flavor of the New Year. Ning Qing sent someone to bring back some fireworks, most of which were given to Nei’er to bring back for her two brothers to play with.

She just wanted to hear the sound and see the fun.

When it was dark, the sound of firecrackers came from everywhere, sometimes near and sometimes far, and the smell of the New Year gradually intensified.

Ning Qing looked at Xiao Gen and Zhu Zi next door, who were playing happily, and also lit a few. Watching the fireworks bloom in the darkness, Ning Qing had a childlike smile in her eyes.

Sister Xiuping and Shen Ma cleaned up the table and called out to Ning Qing to have dinner.

The three of them sat around the table, and Sister Xiuping said, “Miss, try the roast chicken you love, it smells so good!”

It was very fragrant indeed. Ning Qing chucked a piece and put it into her mouth. The meat was delicious, but …… why was there a strange taste at the end of the meal, very thin.

Ning Qing also could not cook. Thinking that it may be that Sister Xiuping used some kind of seasoning, she did not say much so as not to hurt her.

“Delicious, Sister Xiu Ping’s cooking is as good as ever,” Ning Qing praised.

“Xiuping’s cooking is always good, the old slave is also blessed to follow,” Shen Ma also smiled and agreed.

Ning Qing ate other dishes, always feeling that they all had a strange taste, not too heavy, but could be ignored without careful tasting.

Ning Qing was upset about the silver-ringed snake and said, “Why does this dish have a smell?” Ning Qing smelled the rice, and it seemed to be the smell of burnt rice.

Xiuping was surprised, “What smell?”

Ning Qing frowned, “I don’t know. It leaves a weird aftertaste.”

Sister Xiuping took a few bites of the dish and said, “It doesn’t taste bad. Did you play with fireworks a lot, inhaling the smoke smell of firecrackers?”

Shen Ma tasted it and also said, “Madam, your tongue must have gotten sensitive, I think it tastes okay.”

She went out to watch the fireworks and came back, took the onion and pressed it.

The smell of paste could still be strung into the dish. Was she paranoid? She had broken up with the flower boss, even retired from the welfare home. Was it possible for anyone to harm her again?

Sister Xiuping also smiled and said to Shen Ma, “The girl ate less, then we will not be polite and eat more.”

Ning Qing did not eat a few bites, the faint taste she felt was wrong.

“Sister Xiuping, Mama Shen, don’t eat,” Ning Qing said.

Xiuping and Shen Ma stopped their chopsticks in surprise.

“Did anyone else come to the courtyard today?”

Sister Xiuping thought for a moment, then she said, “There was a bhikkhunī who said she wanted some water to drink, so I scooped up a scoop of water and gave it to her. I just turned around to take a ladle, but she did not enter our courtyard.”

“In the future, do not let unrelated people into the courtyard,” Ning Qing’s heart got a little uneasy, as if something was going to happen.

The three of them did not eat enough, cleaned up a bit and went to their respective rooms to rest.

No one noticed that the black panther, who had eaten the leftovers, also closed his eyes soberly. Even the sound of firecrackers very close could not wake him up.

Ning Qing fell asleep. In her sleep, she felt very hot, so hot that she simply could not stand it, and the smell of smoke choked her. But even if uncomfortable, she was trapped in the dream world and was unable to wake up.

Until she felt her body being picked up, she forced her eyes open and vaguely saw a familiar face, that was her entire teenage dream. He pursed his lips anxiously, took one look at her and went outside.
