Shi Nian's face flushed, and she said to Zheng Hai, "Mr. Zheng, if there is nothing else, we will leave first."
She took Feng Sihan's hand, politely declined Zheng Hai's offer to see her off, and went downstairs.
"Sihan, what do you want to eat tonight?"
"You choose."
Shi Nian thought for a moment, "Then let's find a place close by, how about eating at the newly opened barbecue restaurant at the entrance of the community?"
"Can."
After entering the store, Shi Nian found a seat by the window.
After Feng Sihan sat down and they ordered their food, Shi Nian began to feel like giving him a gift.
"Si Han, I want to drink soda. Can you buy me a bottle from the front desk?"
Feng Sihan frowned slightly, picked up the glass kettle, poured a cup of warm water, and pushed it in front of her.
"Nian Nian, drinking carbonated drinks is not good for your health, especially at night. Drinking too much can cause insomnia. If you are thirsty, drink some warm water."
Shi Nian held the cup of warm water with mixed feelings.
What method can be used to temporarily lure Feng Sihan away?
"Si Han, there are no napkins on the table. Can you go get some?"
Just then, a waiter passed by and Feng Sihan waved to stop him. “Hello, could you please give us some napkins?”
Shi Nian persisted, "Why hasn't the food been served yet? Sir..."
Halfway through their conversation, the waiter was already pushing a small food cart towards their table.
Shi Nian put her hands under the table, holding the gift box in her hand. She felt anxious and suddenly wanted to laugh.
Or she could just give it to him directly...
Shi Nian took a deep breath, "Si Han..."
"Wait a moment, Nian Nian, I'm going out to answer a phone call."
Shi Nian hurriedly hid her half-raised hand under the table. She smiled at Feng Sihan and said, "Okay."
As soon as he left, Shi Nian immediately stood up and placed the gift box on the table in front of his seat.
Two minutes later, Feng Sihan came back and Shi Nian looked at him expectantly.
Feng Sihan sat down and saw the gift box in front of him. He was stunned for a moment, "What is this?"
"Didn't I go to the mall to buy a mobile phone for my sister this morning? I also happened to buy you a small gift. Come on, open it and see if you like it?"
Feng Sihan was stunned. "The gift you bought is for me?"
Shi Nian raised the corners of her lips, "I said I bought it for you, so of course it's a gift for you."
The annoyance that Feng Sihan had been holding in his heart for almost a day disappeared in an instant, and he opened the gift box under Shi Nian's eager gaze.
Inside the gift box was a camouflaged Swiss Army knife.
Shi Nian saw him pick it up and look through it, and explained, "I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to use it after seeing it off. I thought you would be able to use this multifunctional saber, so I bought it as soon as I saw it."
"Thank you, Nian Nian. I like it very much."
It was the first time Shi Nian gave him a gift, and Feng Sihan treated it like a treasure.
Shi Nian raised the corners of his lips, and looked at Feng Sihan with his chin in his hand, "I didn't expect that we have such a tacit understanding. By the way, I also bought the unsharpened dagger you mentioned online."
After Shi Nian finished speaking, she saw Feng Sihan pinching the blade with his fingers, and her voice suddenly soared in shock, "Sihan, what are you doing?!"
Feng Sihan spread out his hands, "I'm fine, this saber is not sharpened."
Shi Nian thought it was a false alarm, sat back down, and stroked his chest gently, "You scared me."
She took a breath and frowned, "Sihan, can't it be used without a sharp blade?"
Feng Sihan folded the Swiss Army Knife and put it back into the gift box. "It's okay. I can sharpen it."
Shi Nian's eyes sparkled, "Then I bought it online..."
Feng Sihan saw through her thoughts and interrupted, "No."
He caught Shi Nian's disappointed expression, softened his tone, and explained, "The sharpened dagger is very sharp. If you use it improperly, you will cut yourself."
Shi Nian looked at him eagerly, and Feng Sihan's bottom line loosened a little.
He sighed helplessly, "Well, when I think your level is up to par, I'll help you sharpen the blade."
Shi Nian smiled again, very happy, and said without thinking, "Si Han, you are so nice, I love you!"
Her mind was full of thoughts about how she could wield a knife like the characters in action movies in the future, and she was completely unaware of what she said.
Feng Sihan actually heard Shi Nian say that she loved him.
The calm lake of his heart was stirred up.
Shi Nian was delighted when he saw that the meat on the iron plate was cooked, and he warmly invited Feng Sihan to eat.
She raised her eyes, met Feng Sihan's gaze, and paused.
The way he looked at her seemed a little different from usual.
Shi Nian wanted to take a closer look, but the difference quickly disappeared.
After dinner, on the way back, Shi Nian went to a nearby restaurant and ordered some light stir-fried dishes, which she packed up and sent to her sister's house.
Before leaving, her sister called her.
Shi Wei looked embarrassed. "Niannian, can you lend me two thousand yuan? I am feeling much better now. I can go out to buy groceries and cook for myself. This way I don't have to bother you every day and have you run over to bring me food several times a day."
Shi Nian felt her sister's cautiousness, and her heart felt like it was being twisted, sore and painful.
She was so busy buying a new cell phone for her sister that she forgot that her sister had been a full-time housewife for many years and had no money.
Although they are sisters with a very good relationship, it must be uncomfortable to rely entirely on others to live.
She felt a little guilty for not thinking it through.
"sure."
Shi Nian only had three thousand yuan on her, so she kept the change and transferred the entire amount to Shi Wei.
She comforted him, "Sister, you are my only relative, and I don't mind running errands for you. You can use this money first, just consider it as my birthday red envelope to Chenchen in advance, you don't have to pay it back."
She half-jokingly said, "If you want to pay me back, wait until you make a lot of money and give me a big red envelope."
Shi Wei understood her intention and her eyes moistened, "Definitely."
Shi Nian returned home and sighed softly.
She took out the remaining passbooks, counted them, took out a small amount, and put the rest back.
The next day, Shi Nian did not go for morning exercise with Feng Sihan. After breakfast, she went to the vegetable market to buy some fresh meat and vegetables to send to her sister's house.
After getting off work at noon, she called Feng Sihan.
"Si Han, I'm going to the bank to withdraw money. I'll be back a little later at noon."
"knew."
Feng Sihan and Shi Nian "work" in the same place and take the same route home.
When she stopped her electric bike and called him, he was not far behind her.
Feng Sihan watched her enter the bank, thought for a moment, and decided to pull over and wait for her.
There were not many people at noon, and Shi Nian only waited for a few minutes before completing all the procedures.
With money in hand again, Shi Nian felt more cheerful.
On her way back, she passed by the market and bought some food. She was almost home when she didn't notice that Feng Sihan was driving behind her.
When approaching the residential area, Feng Sihan suddenly discovered that not only him, but also a car was following Shi Nian.
He frowned, sped up, and glanced towards the cab.
Shi Nian was about to ride into the community when she suddenly heard a shrill car horn behind her.
The voice seemed to come from the back of her head. She was startled and quickly moved to the side.
