Shi Nian clenched her fists. "From what I heard from Zhang Jiahao, he is simply lying to us! He deliberately revealed some information on the phone to confuse our judgment so that he could take the opportunity to hide!"
She noticed Feng Sihan was looking at the computer, paused, and leaned over, "Sihan, can you locate Zhang Jiahao?"
"There wasn't enough time. I could only confirm that he was in the city."
Shi Nian clenched his fists, hatred flashing in his eyes, "He can't run away. He wants the money and wants to leave here. He has to break free from the crowd and meet us."
"Niannian, let Han Ye go with you. You can go home at the same time. Even if Zhang Jiahao is really watching you in secret, he won't suspect anything since he doesn't know Han Ye."
Feng Sihan paused, and then said, "After a while, he will send you the meeting address, and you will send it to me immediately. Don't be afraid, my people and I will go with you. The action plan will depend on the situation, and we will ensure your safety."
Shi Nian nodded vigorously and held the hand he extended.
Han Ye made eye contact with other team members behind his back, and accidentally met Feng Sihan's gaze. He restrained himself a little and smiled at him.
"Brother Han, don't worry, I'm watching over my sister-in-law. I will never let her lose a single hair."
Feng Sihan closed the cash box and handed it to Shi Nian, "Niannian, you and Han Ye take two cars and leave."
"Okay, I'll leave now."
Feng Sihan watched her go away, feeling worried, and reminded her, "Be careful."
"The same to you."
Shi Nian left the bank, stood on the street, and hailed a taxi.
After the taxi drove away, a black car outside the bank started slowly and followed the taxi at a constant speed.
Shi Nian stopped at the entrance of the community, hesitated for a moment, and continued to walk in, but his pace slowed down.
She entered the corridor and turned the corner before she dared to look outside, looking for Han Ye.
Without warning, a puzzled male voice sounded behind him, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing here?"
Shi Nian was startled and almost screamed.
She jumped far away and looked behind her with wide eyes.
Han Ye was standing behind her, looking at her puzzledly.
Shi Nian's heart was pounding, and it took her a while to find her voice again, "You...when did you come here? Why didn't I see you enter the corridor?"
"You guys were driving too slowly, so I asked Brother Han for your address and overtook you to get here first."
Shi Nian broke out in a cold sweat and exhaled slowly, "You spoke out of the blue and scared me... Let's go upstairs."
Shi Nian walked past Han Ye and led the way, arrived at Shi Wei's house and knocked on the door.
"Sister, it's me. I'm back."
It was Zheng Hai who opened the door. He glanced at the two of them and moved aside to make room for them to pass.
Shi Nian breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Shi Wei in the living room.
Shi Wei asked anxiously, "Niannian, Zhang Jiahao hasn't called me yet. Did he find out something? What did he do to Chenchen?"
Shi Nian hurriedly stepped forward and held her hand, "Sister, don't worry. I just met Si Han at the bank and called Zhang Jiahao in front of him. Chenchen talked to me and Zhang Jiahao didn't hurt her."
Shi Wei sat dejectedly on the sofa, her hand on her chest, "That's good..."
She took a breath, frowned again, and choked up her voice, "That bastard actually dared to hit Chenchen. She is his own flesh and blood, how dare he! Chenchen has never suffered any injustice since she was a child, she must be very scared... It's all my fault, I was careless and fell into Zhang Jiahao's trap... He wants revenge, revenge on me..."
Shi Wei broke down emotionally, held her head in her hands, and cried bitterly.
Shi Nian took out two tissues, stuffed them into her hands, put his arm around her shoulders, and comforted her, "Sister, now is not the time to be sad. Zhang Jiahao said on the phone that in an hour, we should go to the address he set. We pay the money and he will release us."
Shi Wei clutched a tissue to wipe her tears and asked in a trembling voice, "An hour later?"
Shi Nian nodded, "Yes, so sister, even for Chenchen, you have to cheer up and be strong."
Determination appeared in Shi Wei's red and swollen eyes. She wiped away her tears and then noticed a strange face standing in the living room.
She gently pulled Shi Nian's arm, "Nian Nian, who is he?"
Shi Nian thought of Han Ye and helped pull him in front of her, "Sister, he is Si Han's colleague and he is here to protect us. Zhang Jiahao doesn't know him. He pretends to be a stranger and stays with us, which won't arouse Zhang Jiahao's suspicion."
Han Ye agreed, "Hello, please rest assured that we will return the child to you safely and will not let any criminal go."
Shi Wei breathed rapidly, "I won't let him go! Whoever hurts Chenchen, I will fight him to the death!"
Shi Nian glanced at the time. Twenty minutes had passed since she hung up the phone with Zhang Jiahao.
Time passed by minute by minute, and she asked Han Ye to sit down.
Half an hour later, the phone on the table suddenly vibrated, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
Shi Nian hurriedly picked it up, and Shi Wei asked anxiously, "Is this a message from Zhang Jiahao?"
Shi Nian frowned, "It's him."
Han Ye called Feng Sihan and told him the address.
"Where is Nian Nian?"
Han Ye turned on the speaker, and when Shi Nian heard Feng Sihan's voice, he quickly said, "Sihan, I can hear you, what's wrong?"
"I'll arrange a taxi. The driver is one of ours. He will take you to your destination. Once you get there, just pretend you don't know him."
Shi Nian felt more at ease, "Okay, then shall my sister and I set off now?"
"In two minutes, when the taxi arrives at the gate of the community, I will let Han Ye talk to you."
Before hanging up the phone, Feng Sihan said, "After you get in the car, call me. If you are scared, keep the phone on. It's like I'm always with you. When you meet Zhang Jiahao, don't provoke him. Try to delay the time. We will always be behind you to protect you. I will be not far behind you."
Shi Nian's eyes felt hot and she nodded, but then she realized that Feng Sihan couldn't see her.
She said softly, "I understand, Sihan, let's talk about it in the car. I'll prepare with my sister first."
She pretended to be relaxed, "You don't have to worry about me. Have you forgotten? I am your last disciple. I can definitely fight that Zhang guy."
Shi Nian hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.
Shi Wei changed her shoes, and Han Ye said, "Sister-in-law, the car is here."
"Okay, we'll go right down."
Zheng Hai came over with a box, "Miss Shi, you forgot this."
Shi Nian thanked him, held her sister's hand, hurried downstairs, and under Han Ye's guidance, found the target taxi, opened the door and got in.
She looked at the driver through the rearview mirror and recognized him as one of the men she had just met at the bank.
