As soon as she entered, she heard the sound of a man and a woman arguing, things being thrown around, and even the crying of children.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gou Dan was also standing outside the yard of the village chief’s house, sneaking peeks inside. Seeing Sheng Ning walking over, he hopped and ran towards her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Pretty sister, are you here too?” His voice was sniffly, which gave Sheng Ning the urge to wipe his runny nose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes! What’s going on inside?” Sheng Ning crouched down to make her eye level with Gou Dan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They are fighting!” Gou Dan’s mood was downcast, “Just now my mom was arguing with my dad at home, too. They said it’s all because of Mrs. Zhang, that troublemaker.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your dad is the Village Chief?” Sheng Ning asked, surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, yes! Isn’t he awesome?” Gou Dan immediately puffed up with pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sheng Ning couldn’t help the twitching of her mouth, feeling a bit uneasy inside. She wished she hadn’t been so forthright in the car, spilling everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Awesome.” She gave a thumbs-up, bringing a wide grin to Gou Dan’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Sheng Ning felt a whoosh by her ear. She quickly turned sideways with Gou Dan, and a chopping board flew past right before her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the thick chopping board, Sheng Ning felt a rush of fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gou Dan, oblivious to what had just happened, excitedly clapped his hands, “They’re fighting, they’re fighting.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then ran straight inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sheng An’s voice also came from inside, “Stop fighting, stop fighting. What if Xiao Hong gets frightened?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her voice, Sheng Ning also hurried in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she entered the yard, she found it truly worthy of the village chief’s house. It seemed unassuming from the outside, but inside it was spacious. At the moment, quite a few people stood in the yard, all watching the couple tangled in a fight, with no one intending to intervene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sheng An was holding a seven- or eight-year-old girl, trying to break up the fight, yet afraid the child would get caught in the fray. She was so anxious that her face had turned pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stop fighting, stop it. Someone is going to get killed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Mei, who was already not tall, was now thrown to the ground by a much taller and bulkier man, who was punching and kicking her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I told you to stop causing trouble, I told you to go ahead and die.” The man kicked Qi Mei in the stomach, instantly causing her back to arch in pain, and her body to curl up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Get up! You like to make a fuss, right? Well, let’s have a real fuss this time. I’ve had enough of you, you crazy woman. We’re getting a divorce tomorrow.” The man was infuriated, and thinking about all the onlookers, he struck even harder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the village chief, the boss of the village. If he wanted to sleep with that widow, it would just take a word. Now, with this crazy woman making a scene, his days as village chief were surely numbered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he was going to have a hard time, he would not let her off either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Mei lay on the ground in pain, her face ashen like gold leaf, with a trickle of blood seeping from the corner of her mouth, motionless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without thinking, Sheng Ning picked up a small stool from the yard and aimed a fierce blow at the back of the man’s neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had aimed precisely, having learned from her experiences in prison. That spot could knock someone out without killing them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stool struck, and the man wobbled but turned around with a furious punch, swinging it towards Sheng Ning’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was it. She was about to get her head split open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, this thought flashed through Sheng Ning’s mind. She had calculated everything except that her own strength was too little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she braced herself with closed eyes for the punch, she didn’t feel the expected pain. Instead, she heard the sound of a heavy fall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surprised, she opened her eyes to find Sheng An, dropping the stool she held in a panic.\u003C\u002Fp>",715,"2026-05-30T16:51:58.978Z","2026-06-01T04:31:43.815Z",1,"novelbin.me","7fbf407d9223c40ec3f186c63021fe3fef8b72c5a805018fa372bda87b5b0bf1","she-lives-without-regret-in-this-life-chapter-34","she-lives-without-regret-in-this-life-chapter-32",1457,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fshe-lives-without-regret-in-this-life-cover.jpg"]
