Chapter 32 Tit for tat



Fang Ning took out a mask from his pocket and put it on his face. "It was a bit stuffy wearing a mask, so I took it off. The hat must have fallen into the car when I took off the mask."

He turned to Feng Sihan, "As for why I didn't buy water right away, I think any civic-minded person would ask questions when seeing a child wandering around without a parent, right? Not to mention that there are so many bad guys in society now. If I had been a step slower, the little girl might have been kidnapped by the bad guys. I was in a hurry to take her to the police station, so I forgot to buy water. Mr. Feng, do you have any other questions?"

The atmosphere was a little cold. Shi Nian looked at Feng Sihan, then turned to look at Fang Ning.

Was it her illusion? Why did they seem to be serious about it?

Shi Nian's stomach growled, immediately attracting the attention of the two men.

She was a little embarrassed and coughed lightly, "I haven't eaten yet, I'm a little hungry. Senior, have you had dinner? If not, I'll treat you. Thank you for your bravery today and picking up my sister's child.

Fang Ning smiled at her and said, "I'm not feeling well, so I won't eat out. Nian Nian, if you want to thank me, please buy me a bottle of water. I feel really thirsty now that your husband mentioned buying water."

Shi Nian looked around and saw a supermarket across the street. He said hurriedly, "No problem, senior, wait for me for a while, I'll be back soon!"

Feng Sihan saw her turn around and run away after she finished speaking, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

Fang Ning's voice rang out from the side, "Mr. Feng, I know you doubt me, but I just did what a normal citizen should do."

Feng Si said coldly, "Normal citizens would not take their children away. They would only hand them over to supermarket staff to make it easier for the parents who lost their children to come back and look for them."

Fang Ning was silent for a while. "If you insist on thinking this way, then I have no way of arguing."

He paused and said, "Mr. Feng, forgive me for being blunt, but you seem to be targeting me."

"You're too close to Shi Nian."

Fang Ning chuckled, "I thought I had hidden it well, but you still found out. Yes, I like her, and as far as I know, although her mother urged her to get married, there has never been anyone of the opposite sex around her. I have a good relationship with Shi Nian, but I have never heard her mention you. You two just met, right? She got married to you just to deal with her family, and she doesn't like you at all, am I right?"

Feng Sihan's face darkened for a moment, and he heard Fang Ning say, "You are a soldier, I can't afford to offend you, but if Shi Nian doesn't like you and wants to divorce you in the future, then I will definitely fight with you."

Fang Ning saw Shi Nian running towards him from afar and waved at her with a smile.

Shi Nian stopped in front of him, panting, and handed him the bottle of water and several boxes of medicine in his hand.

She took a breath and explained, "I saw there is a pharmacy next to the supermarket. Senior, don't you have a low-grade fever? I bought you some antipyretic medicine."

Fang Ning raised the corners of his lips, "Niannian, thank you."

Feng Sihan was emitting cold air, and it was hard for Shi Nian not to notice him.

Fang Ning glanced at Feng Sihan, then said to Shi Nian, "I'm leaving first. See you next Monday."

"Oh, okay."

Shi Nian waved and watched Fang Ning leave. After getting into the car with Feng Sihan, she found that his face was colder than usual, as if he was a little unhappy.

She asked tentatively, "Sihan, you and my senior...did you have a fight?"

"Why did you buy him medicine?"

"He is ill."

Feng Sihan pursed his lips and said nothing. Shi Nian explained, "Senior helped my sister find her child by accident. It's not an exaggeration to say that he is Chenchen's savior. I have to thank him on behalf of my sister. How can I thank someone just by buying him a bottle of water? He is sick, and we have a good relationship. The pharmacy is next to the supermarket. It is reasonable for me to buy him some medicine."

Shi Nian was stunned for a moment, "Are you unhappy because I bought medicine for you?"

Feng Sihan did not answer her question, but only said, "I don't think he looks sick."

Shi Nian was speechless, "So what?"

She frowned, "Si Han, you are too suspicious. I can guarantee that my senior is a good person."

"I don't need your guarantee."

Shi Nian choked, struck by his words.

She knew Feng Sihan had no other intentions, but she still felt a tightness in her chest and her eyes turned red.

Shi Nian stopped talking, and the atmosphere in the car became cold again.

Feng Sihan drove the car directly back home. Before getting out of the car, Shi Nian said, "Even if someone else brought my sister's child back and he said he was sick, I would buy him medicine as a thank you."

Feng Sihan was puzzled. Didn't the little girl answer him? Why did she bring up buying medicine again?

During the few seconds he was distracted, Shi Nian had already pushed the door and got out of the car.

Feng Sihan parked his car and didn't see Shi Nian. He looked up and saw the lights on in the living room of his house, then he realized that she didn't wait for him and went upstairs alone.

Shi Nian returned home in a huff, not wanting to eat dinner, and went straight to the bedroom, closed the door, took off his coat, and lay down on the bed.

She took out her cell phone, replied to her sister's message, then went into the chat history with her best friend and typed angrily.

[I’m so mad!!!]

ć€ļ¼Ÿ 怑

Shi Nian answered the phone call from her best friend in one second, "Wow, Xinyue, I can't live like this!"

Zhao Xinyue suppressed her laughter, "What happened so suddenly?"

Shi Nian was about to complain a lot when he suddenly heard a noise outside the door, and everything fell silent for a moment.

She pricked up her ears and heard footsteps getting closer and closer to the bedroom, and her heartbeat suddenly quickened.

Zhao Xinyue waited a long time for a response, and couldn't help but ask, "Hello?"

"Shh!"

The footsteps stopped, and Shi Nian's heartbeat also stopped.

She didn't wait for a knock on the door, she only heard footsteps gradually fading away.

Shi Nian was a little disappointed. She pouted and sat back at the end of the bed. She lowered the volume and told her bestie everything that happened tonight.

"What? Brother Fang Ning is sick!"

Shi Nian laughed angrily, "I said so much, and you only heard that the senior is sick, right?"

Zhao Xinyue laughed, "No, honey, I've listened carefully to every word you said. In my opinion, your husband is unhappy because you gave medicine to Brother Fang Ning, and he's jealous!"

She said regretfully, "You should have told me and given me this great opportunity..."

Shi Nian interrupted, "Wait, you said my husband is jealous?"

"Yeah, isn't this obvious?"

"Impossible. When other people are jealous, they kiss, hug, lift up, and swear to possess each other. Who is jealous like my husband? He asks questions like he is interrogating a criminal, constantly finds faults with his senior, and has a sour face when he is unhappy. He ignores people as if they owe him money!"

Shi Nian felt more and more aggrieved as she spoke. "I told him I was hungry at the police station gate, but he didn't even buy me something to eat on the way back. He even choked me. I think he's not jealous, he just hates me!"

A muffled laugh from her best friend came over the phone, and Shi Nian held back her tears, "I'm so sad and upset telling you about my troubles, and you're still laughing!"

"How can your husband hate you when he accompanies you everywhere? Men and women think differently. Your husband may not think the same way you think. You have to ask him in person what he thinks!"
