"Si Han, you're back."
Feng Sihan stood in the distance and saw Zheng Hai take the things that Shi Nian gave him. The two of them were talking and laughing. He felt as if a huge rock was pressing on his chest and he couldn't breathe.
When he reacted, he had already walked behind Zheng Hai.
Following Shi Nian's gaze, Zheng Hai turned around and saw Feng Sihan. He said to Shi Nian, "Miss Shi, I won't bother you anymore. I'm leaving first."
"Oh, okay. If anything happens to the dog, feel free to contact me."
Shi Nian sent Zheng Hai away and saw Feng Sihan standing there motionless, looking in the direction where Zheng Hai left. She walked over and waved her hand in front of him twice, "Sihan, everyone is gone, what are you looking at?"
Feng Sihan retracted his gaze. Shi Nian had already walked towards the corridor, muttering, "It seems that there are only tomatoes and cucumbers at home. How about frying them with eggs tonight? No, are there any eggs at home..."
Shi Nian tried hard to recall, but the hand hanging by his side was suddenly grasped by a big hand, and his thoughts were interrupted in an instant.
Feng Sihan's deep voice rang in his ears, "Nian Nian, wait for me."
Her hand was held tightly by Feng Sihan, and the heat was transmitted upwards from her palm.
Shi Nian's cheeks felt hot, and she thought absentmindedly, why did he want to hold my hand when we were only walking up a few steps?
If she remembered correctly, they had gone their separate ways upstairs before... What happened to him tonight?
When they reached the door, Feng Sihan still showed no intention of letting go.
Shi Nian used her other hand to rummage through her bag and found the key.
She was not used to being so close to Feng Sihan for a long time. When opening the door, she had to try several times to get the key into the keyhole.
After entering the room, Feng Sihan finally let go.
Shi Nian's palms were hot and damp, and he made her sweat.
She found the eggs in the kitchen, breathed a sigh of relief, tied on her apron and started preparing the food.
Shi Nian cracked the eggs into a bowl, turned around to throw away the garbage, and was startled by the figure standing at the door.
She pretended to be angry, "Si Han, are you a cat? You make no sound when you walk."
"You were thinking about something else, so you didn't hear my footsteps."
Shi Nian's eyes flashed with embarrassment. How did he know that she was thinking about something else...
She was just wondering why Feng Sihan was acting out of character tonight and insisted on holding her hand and going upstairs with her.
Feng Sihan saw Shi Nian's subtle expression, and the feeling of tightness in his chest came up again.
What is she thinking about? Zheng Hai?
Shi Nian pulled herself out of her thoughts and saw Feng Sihan looking straight at her. She tidied the hair by her ear awkwardly.
"Si Han, I'm going to cook. Do you have anything to ask me?"
Feng Sihan came over and said, "I'll help you."
Shi Nian always felt that he was a little abnormal tonight, and glanced at him from time to time while cooking.
Feng Sihan suddenly turned his head, caught her gaze, and asked, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Shi Nian was puzzled, "What did you say?"
Feng Sihan moved his lips, feeling disappointed, "Nothing."
Shi Nian was confused. What happened to him?
Feng Sihan didn't say anything during the entire dinner.
The atmosphere in the restaurant was a bit cold. Shi Nian shoveled rice into her mouth in small sips and secretly observed his expression.
Why did she feel that Feng Sihan seemed to be in a bad mood?
Is something going wrong at work?
Shi Nian was already full, but was reluctant to put down his chopsticks.
She kept trying to find an opportunity to speak, but Feng Sihan never looked at her.
Finally, Shi Nian waited until he put down his chopsticks.
She asked hurriedly, "Sihan, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"
Feng Sihan met her gaze, but did not answer her question. He just pretended not to care and asked, "Is Zheng Hai's birthday today?"
"But."
Shi Nian paused for a moment and then said, "I don't know when his birthday is."
She was a little surprised, "Si Han, why are you asking about Mr. Zheng's birthday?"
Shi Nian saw that Feng Sihan was about to speak but hesitated, so he asked again, "What do you want to talk to Mr. Zheng about?"
Feng Sihan looked at her, "Why did you give him a gift?"
Shi Nian was stunned, "When did I give him a gift?"
Feng Sihan was unhappy, "When we met downstairs, you gave him a big paper bag. Isn't that a gift?"
"No, that's the suit jacket my sister asked me to return to Mr. Zheng."
Shi Nian saw that he frowned slightly, and explained, "It was the time when Liu Chunyan came and tried to force my sister to leave. My sister's clothes were torn by Liu Chunyan, so Mr. Zheng lent his coat to my sister."
When Feng Sihan met Shi Nian's clear gaze, all the annoyance in his heart disappeared and even his breathing became lighter.
It turned out that he had misunderstood.
Shi Nian carefully observed his expression and asked tentatively, "Si Han, so... are you unhappy because of this?"
Feng Sihan said in a normal tone, "I'm not unhappy, I just asked casually."
He was obviously unhappy when he thought about it.
Suddenly, she remembered, "By the way, Sihan, I won't be home for dinner tomorrow night, so you don't have to wait for me."
"Why?"
"Xinyue is leaving the day after tomorrow. Let's get together tomorrow night to practice for her."
Feng Sihan frowned, "She's leaving? Where to?"
"My senior opened a branch store in another province with a joint venture with others. Xinyue went there to help with the accounts for a while and will be back soon."
Feng Sihan asked again, "We're having dinner tomorrow night. Will Fang Ning come too?"
"Senior is my best friend's boyfriend, he must go too."
Feng Sihan kept asking questions, and Shi Nian always felt like he was being interrogated as a criminal.
Seeing his serious expression, she couldn't help but want to laugh, "Si Han, we are just going to have a simple meal, no KTV or anything like that. I promise to go home right after dinner. If you are worried that Wang Fan will pester me again, can you come with me?"
"I'll go with you."
Before Shi Nian finished speaking, he heard Feng Sihan's cheerful response.
She met his serious black eyes, and her heartbeat suddenly quickened without warning.
Does his concern for her prove that she still matters to him?
Shi Nian couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, "Then I'll tell you tomorrow when the specific time and place are confirmed."
"OK."
At night, Shi Nian took a shower and lay on the bed when her cell phone vibrated.
She saw the flashing breathing light and couldn't wait to turn on her phone.
Even though there is a wall between them, Feng Sihan still likes to send messages.
Did he just see the selfie she sent him this afternoon?
Shi Nian raised the corners of her lips, unlocked the screen, and saw the message prompt, and the corners of her lips that were raised suddenly fell.
[Nian Nian, what are you doing? Why didn't you call your brother today? ]
Shi Nian's temples jumped. She was in a hurry to find her sister yesterday, so she let Li Youcai's number out of the small dark room and forgot about him.
She deleted the message expressionlessly and blocked him again.
Shi Nian cursed Li Youcai as a psychopath in his heart and let out a sigh of relief.
She exited the text message interface and clicked into WeChat again.
The contact list was empty and no one had sent her a message.
Shi Nian clicked into the chat box with Feng Sihan, then exited.
Why didn't he reply to her?
He wouldn't... dislike her selfie, would he?
