Chapter 177: Accepting Defeat



Zheng Hai acted quickly, clamped Mrs. Zhang's arm, held her body, and handed her over to the police.

He met her angry gaze and said to the police officer in a cold voice, "I hope this matter can be resolved as soon as possible. Please take her to the police station and complete my lawsuit as soon as possible."

"Old lady, please come with us."

Old Mrs. Zhang struggled hard but to no avail and was stuffed into a police car by the police.

After the police car left, the audience had nothing to watch and dispersed in twos and threes.

Zheng Hai said to Shi Wei, "Get in the car, I'll take you home."

Shi Nian wanted to go with them, but Feng Sihan grabbed her wrist and said, "Nian Nian, my car is closer."

Shi Nian sprained her ankle, and Shi Wei was reluctant to let her walk more.

She waited at the door of the corridor when Shi Nian got out of the car and refused to accompany her upstairs.

Shi Nian was worried about Chen Chen, "Sister, I promised to bring Lele to play with Chen Chen."

Feng Sihan heard this and said, "Come home with me, I'll take Lele to your sister's place."

Shi Nian's mind moved slightly, "Sister, let's celebrate tonight? Congratulations on finally getting rid of Zhang Jiahao. No one will be able to hurt you anymore!"

She held Feng Sihan's arm, limped to Chenchen's side, and gently touched her soft hair. "Our Chenchen will finally be able to go to kindergarten and play with her friends in a few days."

Shi Wei smiled and said, "Okay, let's have hot pot together tonight."

She tilted her head and asked, "Mr. Zheng, do you want to come with us?"

Shi Nian said quickly, "Mr. Zheng, you have to come. You have helped us so much, taking care of the big and small ones, and running around. We will treat you tonight."

Zheng Hai raised the corner of his lips, "Then I won't be polite to you."

Shi Nian held Feng Sihan's hand and shook it gently, "Sihan, if that's the case, I'll go directly to my sister's place. Can you please go home and bring Lele here?"

Feng Sihan insisted, "I'll take you home first, and then go home to take Lele home."

Shi Nian couldn't resist him and nodded in agreement.

"I'll carry you."

Shi Nian was stunned for a moment, and her cheeks slowly turned red.

She glanced to the side and accidentally met Shi Wei's ambiguous gaze, and her body temperature rose instantly.

Shi Wei smiled and said, "Niannian, your brother-in-law is so good to you. You don't have to be embarrassed. Mr. Zheng and I will take Chenchen and leave first."

Hearing this, Shi Nian's cheeks turned even redder.

Shi Wei blinked at Zheng Hai. Zheng Hai received the signal, and the two adults and one child turned around and went upstairs.

At Feng Sihan's urging, Shi Nian lay on his back.

Feng Sihan's back was broad and solid. Shi Nian lay quietly on him, but her heart was beating fast.

A group of people walked in.

Shi Nian stayed at home to talk to Shi Wei. Feng Sihan said, "Niannian, I'm leaving first. I'll buy any meat and vegetables you need for dinner."

Shi Wei went to the kitchen to take inventory, and Zheng Hai walked towards Feng Sihan, "I'll go with you."

Feng Sihan asked Shi Nian to send the list to his mobile phone, and left at the same time as Zheng Hai.

Shi Nian had an injury on her foot, so she sat on the sofa and painted with Chenchen.

Shi Wei was busy in the kitchen, preparing the pot and bowls for the hot pot.

She finished cleaning up and returned to the living room.

Shi Nian waved and called her over to her side, "Sister, how is your painting preparation going?"

Shi Wei sighed, "You've seen that during this period of time, I was busy taking care of myself and Chenchen, and I had no time to do my own things."

Her eyes fell on Chenchen, her tone full of worry, "I don't ask for anything else, I just hope Chenchen is healthy and safe, and can get out of the shadow of this morning as soon as possible."

She bit her lower lip lightly. "Niannian, please tell Miss Jiang to postpone the exhibition for me. I..."

Before he could finish his words, there was a noise at the door.

Lele ran in excitedly and went straight to Shi Nian and Chenchen.

When Chenchen saw it, his expression suddenly became lively.

Zheng Hai and Feng Sihan walked into the house one after the other, their hands full of things.

Zheng Hai met Shi Wei's gaze and said, "Ms. Shi, Jiang Wan told me about your art exhibition. I was optimistic about you. Why do you suddenly want to cancel it?"

Shi Wei was about to speak but stopped herself, then heard him ask, "Is it because of money? I will provide the venue for free, you just need to provide the work."

"It's not about money, it's just that I don't have the time and energy lately."

Seeing her looking at Chenchen frequently, Zheng Hai immediately understood, "Don't worry about this. You decide the date of the exhibition. It won't be too late for us to discuss it after this period of time."

Shi Wei twisted the corner of her clothes with her fingers and whispered, "I'm so sorry to make you wait for me..."

Zheng Hai smiled at her. "It's okay. Miss Jiang also recognizes that you have potential. If the exhibition is really held, you can also advertise for my company. We are mutually beneficial, so you don't have to worry about it."

While the two were talking, Shi Nian noticed the full shopping bags they were holding.

She couldn't help but whisper to Feng Sihan, "Why did you buy so many things? There are fruits at home, why did you buy more? What is this...Barbie doll? Is it for Chenchen?"

"This is what Zheng Hai strongly wanted to buy. There aren't many fruits, but it looks like there are more because of the snacks inside. These are things that can be eaten and used on a daily basis, and they can also make Chenchen happy."

Feng Sihan added, "You can eat it too."

Shi Nian's eyes flashed with embarrassment, "Do you treat me like a child too?"

Feng Sihan untied the shopping bag and reached in to pull out a bottle of beer, "I also bought this for you."

Shi Nian's forehead twitched, and her cheeks slowly turned red.

She looked at Feng Sihan with embarrassment and said, "Save this for you and Mr. Zheng. I won't drink a drop of alcohol today no matter what."

As she spoke, she squatted down next to the shopping bag, took out a bottle of juice from it, raised her head and blinked at him, "I'll drink this."

A smile flashed across Feng Sihan's eyes. He held the beer can in his hand and sighed softly.

Shi Nian was carrying a shopping bag and was about to go to the kitchen, but was stopped by several people.

Zheng Hai rolled up his sleeves and said, "You and your sister stay in the living room. Your husband and I will clean up the dishes."

Shi Wei stood up and said, "Mr. Zheng, you are the guest, brother-in-law, you guys take a seat, I can be alone."

The few of them were at a stalemate, so Shi Nian suggested, "How about we play rock-paper-scissors, and the two losers go to the kitchen?"

Shi Wei agreed, "I think so."

Feng Sihan and Zheng Hai looked at each other and said, "Okay."

The game ended and Shi Nian and Shi Wei lost.

Before Feng Sihan could speak, Shi Nian said, "I accept the loss!"

Feng Sihan couldn't persuade her, so he had to move a chair into the kitchen.

I felt helpless at the time, but I also wanted to laugh and feel warm inside.

Feng Sihan heard the phone ringing, walked to the living room, picked up the phone and went into the kitchen.

"Nian Nian, someone called you."

Shi Nian was washing vegetables, her hands were wet, "Who is it?"

"There is no note, just a mobile phone number."

Feng Sihan read it once, Shi Nian frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I don't remember, you can hang up for me."

After she finished speaking, she changed her tone, "This kind of inexplicable phone call is so annoying, maybe it's a telecom scam! You answer the phone and scold him!"
