Feng Sihan drove extremely slowly, and every time Shi Nian stopped at an intersection, his heart would skip a beat.
He followed Shi Nian, stopping and starting, a few dozen meters behind her. He saw her riding a bicycle into the community, waited for a few dozen seconds, and then drove in slowly.
Feng Sihan saw the familiar electric car at the door of the unit, and his heart finally settled down.
He walked up the stairs, and his steady heartbeat began to become irregular again.
No matter what his original purpose was, it was true that he deceived her, so it was normal for her to be angry with him and lose her temper with him.
Feng Sihan stood in front of the door, took a deep breath, and prepared himself to be greeted by Shi Nian's anger as soon as he got home.
He opened the door, but suddenly stopped.
Shi Nian was standing behind the door, and their eyes met unexpectedly.
Feng Sihan's heart trembled. Seeing that she was wearing outdoor shoes, he quickly stepped forward to block the door and held her hand hanging by her side. "Niannian, where are you going?"
"I just checked the weather forecast. It looks like it's going to rain tonight. I'm going to push the electric car into the basement."
Feng Sihan didn't hesitate for a second, "I'll go with you!"
"No, you just went upstairs, take a break first."
"I'm not tired, I want to stay with you."
Shi Nian was silent for a few seconds. "That's right, you are a special forces soldier, and walking a few hundred meters more is nothing to you."
Feng Sihan choked and didn't know what to answer for a moment.
He was afraid of saying something wrong and making Shi Nian unhappy, so he met her gaze, pulled the corners of his lips stiffly, and forced a smile.
Shi Nian's way was blocked, and she felt helpless, "Si Han, can you make way?"
Feng Sihan stepped aside and followed Shi Nian down the stairs, holding her hand tightly all the time.
Shi Nian didn't say anything. Feng Sihan held her palms warm, and the calm surface of her heart began to ripple.
She is so important in his heart...
Is he afraid that she will suddenly leave him?
Shi Nian pushed the electric bike into the basement and let Feng Sihan take her home.
Feng Sihan walked in behind Shi Nian and closed the door behind him, and his heart finally settled down.
Shi Nian curled her fingertips and said softly, "I'll go cook."
"Let's do it together."
Shi Nian thought about it and decided that it was a good opportunity for her to tell him what she wanted to say.
"Please help me wash the rice."
"OK."
Feng Sihan didn't want to leave Shi Nian's side at all and followed her closely.
Shi Nian opened the refrigerator, took out the vegetables, and put them in the basin to wash.
No one spoke in the kitchen. It was very quiet, with only the sound of running water from the faucet.
Feng Sihan absentmindedly scooped rice into the basin, revising in his mind the words he wanted to use to explain and apologize to her.
Shi Nian suddenly broke the silence, "If I hadn't discovered it today, when would you have told me the truth?"
Feng Sihan immediately threw his thoughts out of his mind and said quickly, "I was planning to tell you in the next two days before my birthday, but plans can't keep up with changes, and I didn't expect... you would know it today."
He put down what he was holding, turned around and looked at her seriously, apologetically saying, "Niannian, I'm sorry, I did something wrong, I shouldn't have kept it from you, could you please not be angry with me and stop ignoring me?"
Shi Nian suddenly pouted, revealing an unhappy expression.
Feng Sihan was nervous, and he quickly walked to her side and took her hand, "If you are angry, hit me to vent your anger."
Shi Nian couldn't help laughing and nimbly pulled her hand away from his palm, "Why would I hit you? Okay, I won't scare you anymore. I'm not angry with you anymore."
She sighed softly. "To be honest, I was a little angry when I first found out the truth. I couldn't understand why you lied to me. We weren't familiar with each other at the beginning, so it was understandable that you kept it from me. Later, we expressed our feelings to each other, but you never told me the truth... Before I went to the training ground to find you, I asked Xinyue, and Xinyue said that she had looked for you before, and that you would take the initiative to confess to me. Your answer just now is the same as what you told her. I believe you didn't lie to me."
"I didn't lie to you!"
Feng Sihan said anxiously, "Actually, before today, I wanted to tell you the truth many times, but every time the words came to my lips, I would look at you and back off. I was afraid that after you knew the truth, you would despise my high-risk job, want to divorce me, and stay away from me. After I knew that you liked me too, I dared not confess rashly, and kept deceiving myself, trying to find a more suitable time, and kept putting it off until now..."
When Shi Nian touched his burning black eyes and heard his confession, several fragments of memory flashed through her mind, and the scattered fragments of the past suddenly pieced together.
No wonder Zhao Xinyue suddenly asked her on the phone whether she would mind Feng Sihan's career as a armed police officer, or whether she would mind him being selected into the special forces.
A few days ago, Feng Sihan asked her if she would be angry if he lied to her about something.
No matter how she questioned him, he didn't continue to talk about it. It turned out that he was hiding this from her...
Shi Nian suddenly fell silent. Feng Sihan felt more nervous than if he was holding a high explosive pack with three seconds left on the countdown.
His heart was pounding as he nervously stared at the girl in front of him, trying to predict her reaction from her subtle expressions.
Shi Nian pursed her lips, met his gaze, and said seriously, "I'm not angry that you lied to me. I'm just a little unhappy that you didn't believe me."
She paused. "Come to think of it, it was because you were an armed police officer who could suppress Li Youcai that I was happy and couldn't wait to marry you. If you hadn't concealed the fact that you were a special forces soldier, I would have been even happier."
She sighed softly, "You are afraid that I will be angry with you, but in fact you are doubting that I do not support your work. Si Han, you really don't understand me. It is true that I am worried about your safety, but it is also true that I respect your work. If I really minded you working in a dangerous profession, I would have rejected you because you are a member of the armed police when we got married. You should have confessed to me earlier, and you would feel much better."
Feng Sihan couldn't believe it, "You're really not angry with me?"
Shi Nian continued to wash the dishes in the basin. "I just said that I was angry when I first found out. Now that we've talked it out, what else do I have to be angry about?"
Shi Nian tilted her head to look at him. "They say you are the captain of the top team. Everyone admires you and takes you as a role model. I believe in your skills and believe that you can turn danger into safety every time. You just need to do what you should do and don't need to worry about anything else. I will support you, stay behind you, and wait for you to come home when you are on a mission."
"You said all this...from the heart?"
Shi Nian glanced at him, "Why? Don't you believe me?"
"I thought you were going to have a big fight with me."
Shi Nian laughed angrily, "I'm not the kind of unreasonable person. If you treat me sincerely, I will naturally treat you sincerely."
The heavy stone in Feng Sihan's heart fell to the ground. He reached out to turn off the faucet and held her face.
