Chapter 244



Didn’t Feng Sihan say he would be back in the evening?

It's already past midnight, and strictly speaking it's the next day. Why hasn't he come back yet?

In her impression, Feng Sihan had never broken a promise.

Did something happen to him?

Shi Nian felt a little uneasy and wanted to call Feng Sihan, but was worried about disturbing him at work.

She couldn't sit still on the sofa, so she walked to the window and looked out.

In the dark night, a familiar vehicle drove into her sight.

Shi Nian's eyes flickered. It was Feng Sihan's car!

He is back!

Shi Nian immediately walked to the door, opened it, and walked downstairs quickly.

Feng Sihan parked the car, looked up and saw that the light in the living room upstairs was still on, and was stunned for a moment.

Shi Nian is still waiting for him?

He unconsciously quickened his pace and walked into the corridor.

Feng Sihan took two steps and suddenly heard footsteps in the corridor.

He frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice, "Nian Nian, is that you?"

When Shi Nian heard the familiar voice, the corners of her lips curled up, and she walked towards him in the dark with light steps.

Feng Sihan held his breath and concentrated, seeing a dark shadow suddenly rushing towards him from the darkness, and he subdued the shadow in a few moves.

Shi Nian just stretched out his hand, and he felt dizzy and was about to fall to the ground in the next second.

Everything happened in an instant. Shi Nian only had time to grab his pants and screamed before the back of his head touched the floor, "It's me!"

Feng Sihan was stunned for a moment, and hesitated for half a second, and Shi Nian had already fallen to the ground.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and released the force, otherwise Shi Nian would have had a big bump on the back of his head.

He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he took Shi Nian's hand and pulled her up from the ground, "Niannian, why didn't you answer when I called you just now?"

Shi Nian stood up and brushed off the dirt on his pants. His voice was like a sigh, "I wanted to give you a surprise and scare you, but you seemed to only feel surprised, not happy."

Feng Sihan held her hand and said, "I'm sorry, I scared you."

Shi Nian stamped her feet and turned on the voice-activated light. She glanced worriedly at him, "Didn't you say you'd come back in the evening? Why are you back now? Did something happen to you?"

"I went to Country M."

Shi Nian's eyes widened in an instant. Feng Sihan exerted a little force on his hands and pulled her towards the elevator, "Let's talk when we get home."

When the two entered the house, Shi Nian couldn't wait to ask, "What are you doing in Country M? Did you catch Fang Ning?"

Feng Sihan's brows flashed with coldness, "Not yet, but I believe it will be soon."

A hint of disappointment flashed across Shi Nian's eyes, and then she patted his arm vigorously, "Si Han, I believe you can bring the bad guys to justice."

Feng Sihan asked tentatively, "You haven't slept yet, are you waiting for me?"

Shi Nian nodded, then immediately shook her head, "I was just confused for a while, and you came back just as I woke up."

She paused, and when she saw Feng Sihan's handsome face, the doubts in her heart resurfaced.

Should she ask?

What should she do if the richest man is really his brother?

If not... Wouldn't it be impolite for her to ask such a question rashly and make him misunderstand that she was vain and materialistic?

Shi Nian opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopped.

Feng Sihan noticed her awkwardness and caught her gaze, "Nian Nian, what's wrong?"

"I……"

The words he wanted to say went around in his throat and he swallowed them back. Shi Nian shook his head and said, "It's okay."

She pursed her lips and asked with concern, "Have you eaten dinner?"

"not yet."

Feng Sihan changed his shoes and saw the breathing light on his phone flashing before he received Shi Nian's message.

He quickly said, "Sorry, Nian Nian, I was busy and didn't check my phone."

Shi Nian expressed her understanding and walked towards the kitchen. "Wait here. I saved some food for you tonight. I'll go heat it up for you now."

Feng Sihan answered a phone call and was delayed for a few minutes. When he walked into the restaurant, a sumptuous meal was already on the table.

He usually lived alone, and when he came home late at night, there was never a light on for him, no strong smell of fireworks, and his eyes were filled with his wife.

With all the structures and beautiful pictures before our eyes, happiness has a concrete meaning at this moment.

Feng Sihan's heart was filled with ripples, and he walked towards Shi Nian.

Shi Nian was not hungry, so she sat opposite him and watched him eat heartily.

During the meal, Feng Sihan's cell phone rang again.

Feng Sihan took a look, put down his chopsticks, and answered the phone.

After a few seconds, he said in a deep voice, "Okay, I understand."

Feng Sihan hung up the phone and met Shi Nian's curious gaze.

"Is there any new news from Country M?"

"No, many of the rescued people were trafficked. I went to Country M mainly to deal with this matter and bring back people of Chinese nationality. Han Ye just called me and told me that everyone has contacted their families and returned home."

Shi Nian nodded as if she understood, and said sadly, "It would be great if one day, I could find my family back."

Feng Sihan paused holding the chopsticks, "Nian Nian, aren't Shi Wei and Liu Chunyan your family members?"

"no."

Shi Nian shook her head. "I don't think I've ever told you that I'm not Liu Chunyan's biological child. I was adopted by her."

She lost herself in memories. "When I was little, Liu Chunyan treated me badly. One time, I had an argument with her and asked her if I was not her biological child. She admitted it. Even though she denied it later, Shi Wei told me that she picked me up."

She shrugged. "Before I knew the truth, I was very confused. How could there be a mother who treats her child badly? From then on, I realized that all the grievances I had suffered since childhood had a reason. It was because I was not a biological child, and because I was a girl."

Shi Nian pulled the corner of her lip, "I also heard it from my sister. It was probably God's revenge on her. She had always wanted a boy. When she found me, she saw that my hair was cut very short and my clothes were embroidered with gold thread. She thought I was a boy. She was afraid that someone would find out, so she took me home immediately. But when she got home, she found out that I was a girl."

Feng Sihan frowned slightly, with a look of heartache in his eyes, "Nian Nian..."

Shi Nian looked calm and smiled at him, "You don't have to feel sad for me. Those things are already in the past. I have become indifferent to family affection and don't care how she treats me."

Feng Sihan's face was heavy. "Have you never looked for your family in these years?"

"I used to look for it, but now I don't."

Shi Nian sighed, "After I knew he wasn't my biological child, I asked around, but the missing person notices I received were all about someone's family losing a baby boy."

The dusty part of her heart ached slightly, and there was loss in her eyes. "Liu Chunyan said that I was very young when she picked me up, and I was dressed very neatly. Maybe my biological parents were like Liu Chunyan, disliked me because I was a girl, and deliberately abandoned me. In order to get me adopted by a good family, they deliberately dressed me like a boy."

Shi Nian smiled bitterly and said self-deprecatingly, "After so many years, if my family wanted to find me, they should have found me a long time ago, right?"
