The background was noisy and Shi Wei's voice was crying. Shi Nian couldn't hear clearly and walked to a quiet place aside.
She was extremely anxious and tried to comfort him, "Sister, what happened? Don't worry, tell me slowly."
"Niannian, Chenchen...Chenchen is gone!"
There was an explosion in Shi Nian's head, and her eyes turned red. "What does it mean... gone?"
"Chenchen is missing, Chenchen is lost!"
Shi Nian's tense nerves relaxed a little, but when he heard his sister's desperate cry, his heart tightened again.
She asked anxiously, "Sister, where are you now?"
"I'm at home."
"Don't go anywhere. Call the police if you haven't already. I'll be right there!"
Feng Sihan came back after paying the bill and saw Shi Nian running towards him in a panic. He keenly sensed something was wrong and asked, "Did something happen?"
Shi Nian nodded, and said anxiously, "Chenchen is missing. I have to go back immediately."
Feng Sihan frowned, "Don't worry, I'll drive the car over."
Feng Sihan walked with the wind, and Shi Nian had to jog to keep up with him.
After getting in the car, it sped through the dark night, brushing past the changing traffic lights several times as it passed through the intersection.
Shi Nian was impressed by Feng Sihan's driving skills and couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
The man sitting in the driver's seat had his jawline taut as he drove calmly.
Shi Nian's anxious mood dissipated a little. Feng Sihan's presence always gave her enough sense of security and confidence.
The car quickly drove to the downstairs of Shi Wei's residential area, and Shi Nian got out in a hurry.
She ran all the way, but didn't see any police car when she reached the door of her unit.
Shi Nian frowned, went upstairs in two steps, and knocked on her sister's door.
Feng Sihan followed closely and rushed to Shi Nian's side.
Shi Nian was a little anxious when she couldn't knock on the door, and said angrily, "I shouldn't have listened to Zhang Jiahao. If something really happens, I can't even get in the door!"
As she said that, she called Shi Wei.
As soon as the call was made, the door opened.
Shi Nian was furious when she saw Zhang Jiahao. She didn't bother to complain about why he took so long to open the door. She pushed him open and walked into the house. "Where's my sister?"
Shi Wei sat in a corner of the sofa and sobbed quietly. When Shi Nian saw her red and swollen eyes, her heart was broken.
In the restaurant, Zhang's father and mother were eating and drinking. In addition to the aroma of food, the air was also mixed with the smell of wine.
Shi Nian frowned and turned to question Zhang Jiahao, "Didn't you pick up Chenchen? How could she get lost? Have you found the child now? Speak!"
Zhang Jiahao gestured for Shi Nian to speak softly, "I am the one who picks up Chenchen. I picked him up from kindergarten this afternoon. I had some work to do and happened to run into my mother outside the community, so I handed the child to her and asked her to take him home. But the old lady was so careless that she was busy shopping for herself. She only realized Chenchen was gone when she got home."
Shi Nian's forehead was throbbing with veins. "Your mother is so unreliable. You might as well call my sister and ask her to come downstairs instead of leaving Chenchen to her!"
Zhang Jiahao's eyes flashed with displeasure, "Niannian, my mother didn't do it on purpose. When Chenchen was sick before, she even ran around to buy medicine. You said she was unreliable, isn't that a bit too much?"
Shi Nian didn't respond, "Don't change the subject! I just want to ask you what's going on now, have you found Chenchen, and you're just eating and drinking here!"
"not yet."
Feng Sihan asked, "Have you called the police?"
Zhang Jiahao met his eyes and said with a weaker tone, "No."
Shi Nian was anxious and asked Shi Wei, "Sister, didn't I ask you to call the police first? Why didn't you do that?"
"Jiahao told me not to call the police."
Zhang Jiahao was anxious, "Xiaowei, I didn't stop you from signing up. I just said wait a while, until mom and dad have dinner first..."
Shi Nian couldn't believe it and interrupted angrily, "Chenchen is also your daughter. The child is lost, and you still have the mood to wait for a while!"
Feng Sihan asked again, "Where did you lose the child?"
Feng Sihan's gaze was full of pressure, and Zhang Jiahao avoided his gaze. "I just came back too. From what mom said, she and Chenchen must have been lost in a supermarket outside the community."
Feng Sihan walked aside and called the police. Shi Nian heard the sound of Zhang's mother laughing in the restaurant and was furious.
She rushed over and snatched the chopsticks from her hand, "Don't eat it!"
Zhang's mother slammed the table and stood up, "Little girl, what do you want to do!"
Shi Nian asked with red eyes, "Tell me! Where did you hide Chenchen?"
"Don't put the blame on me. It was obviously that little girl who ran away on her own!"
"Chenchen is only a few years old and can't even speak clearly. Where can she go by herself? You are Chenchen's grandmother. You don't feel sad at all that your child is gone!"
"The little loser is gone, isn't Shi Wei still pregnant with another one?"
Shi Nian was furious, "You old fool, say it again! I think you lost Chenchen on purpose!"
Zhang Jiahao chased after them and stood in front of Zhang's mother, "Niannian, Shi Nian, I know you are anxious, but the problem is that it is useless to be anxious now. Didn't your brother-in-law call the police? When the police come, they will find Chenchen."
Shi Nian looked at Zhang's mother coldly, "If anything happens to Chenchen, you wait for me!"
Shi Nian glanced at the wine bottle on the table, then the wine glass in front of Zhang's father, and remembered what Feng Sihan said, and asked Zhang Jiahao, "Brother-in-law, your father was not feeling well, how come he got better so quickly? It seems that he can't drink after taking medicine?"
Zhang Jiahao was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately.
He smiled helplessly, "My dad has a stubborn temper. He just likes that. I advised him not to listen. It's okay for him to have a couple of drinks, so I just let him do it."
Shi Nian looked around the restaurant, but found only three pairs of bowls and chopsticks.
Zhang Jiahao saw her frowning and hurriedly explained, "Your sister is worried about Chenchen and can't eat."
Shi Nian asked, "You can eat it?"
Zhang Jiahao choked and saw Feng Sihan's figure, "Hey, my brother-in-law has finished the call, what did the police say?"
Shi Nian no longer paid attention to Zhang Jiahao and walked straight towards Feng Sihan.
"Si Han, have the police filed a case?"
"Open a case, the police will be here soon, let's go to the place where the child was lost and ask."
Shi Wei stood up anxiously, "Nian Nian, I'll go with you."
"Sister, you are not in good health and you are pregnant, so don't go back and forth. I will call you as soon as I have any news about Chenchen."
Zhang Jiahao said, "I'll accompany Xiaowei."
“No need!”
Ever since Zhang's father and mother came, Shi Nian's impression of her brother-in-law as a simple and honest man was shattered. Now, she even hated him a little.
Shi Nian was holding back her anger, "You and your mother, go to the supermarket to find Chenchen together!"
Zhang Jiahao frowned, “The old lady is old, and it’s inconvenient for her to go up and down the stairs.”
"Why did you bring her back to the city from the countryside if it's not convenient?"
Shi Nian was annoyed, "If your mother doesn't go with us, what should she do if she bullies my sister while I'm not around? If she doesn't go, who will tell us where Chenchen was lost!"
"I know the location, I'll take you there."
Shi Nian frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Zhang Jiahao, when Si Han asked you just now, didn't you say you didn't know?"
