My Happy Daily Life After Being Reborn-Chapter 377 - 14 Pleasing

Hu Fangfang reached out to stop Lin Xiaoguai, but how could the guard who had been watching her let her succeed? Before she could grasp the corner of Lin Xiaoguai’s clothes, they had already separated her.

Lin Xiaoguai nodded her thanks to the guard, and after a few returned military salutes, they turned their fierce gazes toward Hu Fangfang.

Shen Chi was the most beloved leader among the basic-level soldiers in the entire Capital Military District, bar none! As his wife, Lin Xiaoguai, who had also helped the soldiers, naturally received their preferential treatment.

Indeed, today, as soon as Hu Fangfang mentioned she wanted to find Lin Xiaoguai, the sentry post’s guard had sounded a three-level alert, refusing to let her in despite her persuasive talk.

Watching as Lin Xiaoguai’s silhouette gradually disappeared from her sight, Hu Fangfang wanted to chase after her, but several guards firmly barred her way.

Thinking that if Lin Xiaoguai also refused to lend her money, her son would remain a fool for life, and Guo Cai certainly wouldn’t want her anymore, Hu Fangfang felt as though her heart had turned to ash, and hatred began to surge within her.

Why wouldn’t anyone help her?

All those people had clearly been helped by her in the past, so why wouldn’t they help her in return?

And Bian Yumei—if it weren’t for her asking for help with moving items, would she have left her sick son alone? Her saying, "I had no idea your son was ill, otherwise I wouldn’t have asked for your help"...

And there was Cheng Minping—when her mother-in-law had made life difficult for her, wouldn’t she have had an impossible time if Hu Fangfang hadn’t spent money to buy a TV for her as a gift?

Wang Juxiang, Duan Hualing, Mei Xiaohua, Li Yuan... Which one of them hadn’t been helped by her?

If not for them, how could she have spent all the money Guo Cai had given her?

And now that they saw her downfall, they all turned their backs on her.

Even Bao Hongyu and the rest, clearly not intending to lend her money, treated her like a monkey for their amusement—yet they were related...

Just as Hu Fangfang was wallowing in self-pity, entirely consumed by resentment, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye.

"Go over there, take more people with you, and don’t let those from the criminal police talk too much. If what happened last time occurs again, see how I will deal with you!" Shen Chi instructed in a low voice.

"Head, what about you? Aren’t you coming with me?" Zhong Wu asked.

"I have to go see Admiral Wang Wei, need to speak with him about some matters regarding the air-raid shelter project."

"All right, I understand."

"I’ll come straight back after visiting Admiral Wang Wei, just handle things on your end..."

"Shen Chi!" Before he could finish, Hu Fangfang, who was not far away, rushed over, saying excitedly, "Do you remember me? I’m Xiao Guai’s good friend, Hu Fangfang!"

She was not unaware of Lin Xiaoguai’s current attitude toward her, but if she didn’t invoke the name of her friend, she feared Shen Chi would not be willing to deal with her.

The nearby guards, upon hearing this, were immediately filled with indignation. What was this woman rambling about? Clearly, the Head’s wife had just earlier ignored her, and yet she dared to lie in front of them! fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

Wanwan’s good friend?

Shen Chi squinted his eyes—did she think he was a fool? Had he forgotten what he had done?

However, on the surface, he raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Now I remember, you’re that woman who brought a bunch of people to my house to rob and bully my wife, aren’t you?"

Hu Fangfang was stunned, then shook her head repeatedly, "No, you misunderstand, I didn’t know they would actually rob..."

"Stop." Shen Chi raised his hand and looked at his watch, "I don’t have time to argue these points with you. Just say why you came rushing over."

"I..." Hu Fangfang stammered, "Could you lend me one thousand yuan?"

"No." Shen Chi’s reply was even more direct than Lin Xiaoguai’s, his tone indifferent, "The money I earn is for looking after my wife and son. Why should I give it to an unrelated woman?"

"Especially one who has bullied my wife?"

Hu Fangfang was stunned, Shen Chi walked away, but after a distance, he suddenly turned to look at Hu Fangfang, who was watching him with a resentful gaze, and said indifferently, "You’d better not think of doing anything, or else I will strike where it hurts you the most."

The last words were spoken with tight lips, yet his gaze was extremely cold, as though it could peer into one’s soul, instantly quelling all of Hu Fangfang’s resentment.

How could there be such a frightening man?

It was only after Shen Chi’s figure disappeared that Hu Fangfang collapsed to the ground, crying out in pain.

It was over, there was no more time, her son was beyond help...

Lin Xiaoguai had no idea that Shen Chi had encountered Hu Fangfang, but that evening before going to sleep, he mentioned the incident.
