Li Youcai was knocked to the ground by Zheng Hai. He sat on the brick floor, holding his cheek, and glared at him. "I'm teaching my own sister a lesson. Who do you think you are? How dare you hit me!"
His eyes moved back and forth between Zheng Hai and Shi Wei's faces, and he suddenly laughed sinisterly, "I know, you like Shi Wei!"
Zheng Hai frowned, and Li Youcai had already stood up with his hands, grinning.
He held his chin high, "Boy, do you know that she is a broken shoe? You are interested in a woman like this who puts on some powder and dresses up? You are really not picky when you are hungry!"
Shi Wei's face turned pale, and the fingers hanging by her side gradually tightened.
Zheng Hai pursed his lips tightly, and before he could say anything else, he punched him hard in the face.
Li Youcai was caught off guard and was hit by the fist. He felt a sharp pain in his nose and hot blood gushed out in an instant.
Zheng Hai said in a cold voice, "It doesn't take someone like you to judge what kind of person Weiwei is!"
Li Youcai wiped his nose and saw the blood on the back of his hand. His voice suddenly rose, "You are intentionally hurting someone. I will call the police and have them arrest you..."
Before he could finish his words, a shadow loomed before his eyes.
Shi Nian frowned, swung the bag and smashed it hard on his head, "Shut up, if you don't know how to speak, you don't have to talk, but stop spouting shit here! I see you just can't stand seeing others living better than you!"
Li Youcai was unable to dodge and was hit several times by Shi Nian with his bag, causing a buzzing sound in his ears.
He raised his hand to block his gaze and glanced around. He was stung by the cold and hostile looks of Feng Sihan and Zheng Hai. He suppressed his dissatisfaction, swore, left some sarcastic words, and turned and ran away.
"Just wait for me, I won't let you have a good life!"
Shi Nian raised her foot and kicked Li Youcai's butt, "Get out of here!"
The appearance of Li Youcai disrupted Shi Nian and Zheng Hai's original plan. She was in a bad mood and wished her eyes could turn into sharp arrows to pierce Li Youcai, whose figure was getting farther and farther away, into a hedgehog.
Feng Sihan came over and said, "Niannian, shall we go?"
Shi Wei heard his question and asked in confusion, "Niannian, didn't you tell your brother-in-law that we're eating out at noon today?"
Shi Nian put her hand behind her sister's back to make a gesture to Feng Sihan, and smiled at her. "I wanted to tell Sihan after I hung up the phone this morning, but several customers suddenly came to the store, and I was so busy that I forgot."
Shi Wei said softly, "Since we have met, let's eat together at noon today."
Shi Nian glanced to the side and met Zheng Hai's gaze, then asked, "Mr. Zheng is passing by too?"
Zheng Hai received her signal and coughed lightly, "Yes, I happened to be doing something nearby."
"Then please have lunch with us at noon. Thank you for protecting my sister and Chenchen just now."
Zheng Hai looked at Shi Wei, "Can I join you?"
Shi Wei said softly, "Of course."
She held Chenchen's hand and said, "Then let's go in together."
The three of them walked in front, while Shi Nian and Feng Sihan lagged behind.
When Shi Nian asked Zheng Hai, Feng Sihan keenly sensed the undercurrent.
He quietly pinched Shi Nian's palm, quickly attracting her attention.
"Si Han, what's wrong?"
Feng Sihan asked in a low voice, "Did I say something wrong just now? Did Zheng Hai ask you for help to ask your sister out so that he could confess his love to her at noon today?"
Shi Nian was surprised, "Did you figure it out?"
She lowered her voice very low, "It has nothing to do with you. It's all the fault of that bastard Li Youcai. I've made up my mind. We'll sit down and talk to them later. You wait for my signal, and we'll retreat when the opportunity arises."
"OK."
The group entered the private room that Zheng Hai had booked in advance.
As soon as Shi Nian sat down, he took out his cell phone and sent a message to Zheng Hai.
[Mr. Zheng, I will leave in two minutes, come on.]
While Shi Wei was helping Chen Chen take off her coat, she coughed twice and raised her cell phone towards Zheng Hai.
After she received Zheng Hai's reply, she pulled the hem of Feng Sihan's shirt and said in a buzzing voice, "I'm going to the bathroom in a while. In two minutes, you can go out on the pretext of answering the phone. I'll wait for you in the lobby downstairs."
"OK."
Shi Nian caught a glimpse of Shi Wei's gaze sweeping over him, and hurriedly pushed Feng Sihan under the table and sat up straight.
She met Shi Wei's gaze and smiled, "Sister, you look so beautiful in this."
Shi Wei felt Zheng Hai's gaze and embarrassedly tucked the hair behind her ears.
The atmosphere at the table was strangely quiet. Shi Nian thought for a moment and said, "You guys chat first. I'm going to the bathroom."
She stood up and then remembered the bag hanging on the back of the chair.
Shi Wei's eyes were fixed on her, and she had no choice but to take her phone and leave empty-handed.
She left the private room quietly and ran downstairs quickly, counting the seconds. As soon as two minutes were up, she immediately called Feng Sihan.
Feng Sihan caught sight of the caller and stood up calmly, "I'm going to go out and answer the phone."
He glanced at the bag that Shi Nian had not taken away, hesitated for a moment, and strode away.
Shi Nian's call was hung up after two rings. She held the phone and looked anxiously towards the stairs.
After a few seconds, Feng Sihan's figure appeared in sight.
Seeing that he didn't take her bag, she breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards him, "I thought you took my bag out and scared me."
Feng Sihan looked helpless, "I won't make the same mistake a second time."
He paused, and when he saw Shi Nian turned around and left, he grabbed her wrist and said, "Niannian, you were planning to eat out at noon today, why didn't you tell me?"
"I didn't plan to eat out. I wanted to go home after cooperating with Mr. Zheng. I even closed the store half an hour early. Who would have thought that I would run into that bastard Li Youcai!"
Shi Nian took out his phone and checked the time. He found that it was already past twelve o'clock. He raised his head and looked at Feng Sihan, "We haven't eaten out for a long time. Why don't we eat here for lunch today?"
Seeing that Feng Sihan did not deny it, she looked around and saw that there was one empty small table not far away. She quickly pulled him over to sit down, "That's perfect. I can wait for my sister and the others here, gossip about the results, and take my bag away."
As she spoke, she picked up her phone and sent a message to Zheng Hai.
…
After Feng Sihan and Shi Nian left one after another, the box, which was not full to begin with, became even emptier.
Shi Wei poured water for Chenchen. Zheng Hai took a deep breath, feeling nervous.
He was about to speak and get straight to the point, but the cell phone beside him suddenly buzzed, interrupting his thoughts.
His Adam's apple rolled when he saw the WeChat notification from Shi Nian on the screen.
Shi Nian sent a photo of the lobby and a text message.
[Mr. Zheng, Si Han and I are having dinner downstairs. My bag is still on the back of the chair. Please bring it down for me when you leave. Thank you. I wish you a successful confession in advance! ]
