Shi Nian was stunned for a moment. Was the secret that Fang Ning asked her to keep, that he liked Zhao Xinyue?
The others he mentioned, besides Zhao Xinyue, also include Feng Sihan?
Shi Nian nodded with some doubt.
Fang Ning smiled at her and left.
Feng Sihan said nothing, pulled her across the road, and walked to an inconspicuous van.
Shi Nian followed him into the car and asked curiously, "Si Han, is this your car?"
"no."
Feng Sihan's voice was cold, and Shi Nian could tell from his tone that he seemed a little unhappy.
Shi Nian was full of doubts, but did not dare to ask more questions.
She hesitated for a moment, "Si Han, how did you know I was here?"
“Just passing by.”
Feng Sihan had a tense face and turned sideways to look at Shi Nian, "Didn't you say that you would have lunch with your good friend at noon?"
His eyes swept to the jewelry box in her hand, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, "Why are you with Fang Ning? He even gave you a gift."
"Yes, I was having dinner with my best friend, but she... this matter is a bit complicated. She didn't come, and Fang Ning and I were waiting for her."
Shi Nian was a little anxious, "This gift was not given to me by Fang Ning, but was given to my best friend."
Feng Sihan frowned, "Do you believe him?"
Shi Nian was puzzled. "Are you talking about the senior? He didn't lie to me, why shouldn't I believe him? I'm just... delivering a gift on his behalf."
Feng Sihan felt depressed and asked in a cold voice, "He told you that he likes your friend?"
Shi Nian had a complicated expression. It wasn't that she didn't keep the secret for Fang Ning, but Feng Sihan guessed it himself.
She nodded and suddenly heard a sneer.
Shi Nian had never seen Feng Sihan behave so abnormally before and was a little scared.
She asked tentatively, "Si Han, you...what's wrong with you?"
Feng Sihan suppressed his emotions and said coldly, "Stay away from Fang Ning in the future. He is fickle and inconsistent."
Shi Nian frowned and retorted, "Senior is not that kind of person!"
"You think he's not, just because he's eloquent and disguises himself so well in front of you!"
Feng Sihan's tone became heavier, and Shi Nian's eyes turned red. "If you are still worried about the misunderstanding of you by the senior..."
"It's not that."
"What is that?"
Feng Sihan was stabbed by the redness in Shi Nian's eyes, and his brows became even colder, "Niannian, you actually cried for him?"
Shi Nian turned her head away from him and said, "I just think that you are too much to pick on seniors again and again. Since you were just passing by, why did you rush in and drag me away? Senior reminded me that I left something behind, why didn't you stop!"
"I don't want you to be with him."
Feng Sihan didn't know what was wrong with him. Whenever he saw Shi Nian and Fang Ning together, he couldn't keep his usual calm and he seemed to be out of control.
He took a deep breath to calm himself down and continued, "You are my wife, I don't want you to get so close to other men."
Shi Nian couldn't believe it. "Si Han, am I so untrustworthy in your heart? I've already said that today's meal is for three people..."
"But you didn't mention Fang Ning on the phone."
Shi Nian choked and said, "Yes, I didn't mention it because he was not there at the time. Later, my best friend asked me to go with him."
She took a deep breath and looked into Feng Sihan's eyes. "He is my senior and also my boss. We know each other well and work in the same store. We see each other all the time. It is impossible that we have no intersection at all. You want me to stay away from him, but I can't quit my job, right?"
"Can."
Shi Nian thought Feng Sihan was crazy. "It's hard to find a job now. What if I quit my job and can't find another one?"
"I can support you."
She was stunned for a moment, and a hint of inferiority flashed in her eyes.
Shi Nian knew that Feng Sihan's family was rich and he could afford to support her.
But she was not the kind of dreamy, love-brained girl. His thoughtless offer to support her would only make her feel that he was insulting her with money.
Shi Nian said angrily, "I don't need you to support me. I don't want to be a full-time housewife like my sister, with no source of income, being bullied and at the mercy of others in my husband's family. Mr. Feng, forgive me for being blunt, but you are a bit authoritarian."
Feng Sihan frowned and was about to explain himself when he heard Shi Nian say, "I won't quit my job. I spoke for my senior only because he helped me a lot. We are friends, that's all."
"But he doesn't consider you as a friend, he..."
Feng Sihan was halfway through his words when Shi Nian asked anxiously, "What about him? I've always wanted to ask, why are you targeting him so much?"
Feng Sihan couldn't suppress his emotions, "He likes you."
Shi Nian was stunned for a moment, "How is that possible? Who said that?"
"Fang Ning said so himself."
Feng Sihan said what he had been holding back for days, and felt relieved for a moment. But when he met Shi Nian's questioning gaze, he inexplicably felt nervous.
He hasn't felt this kind of emotion for a long time since he became a special forces soldier.
Shi Nian subconsciously refuted, "Impossible, the senior just told me in person that he likes my best friend."
She was a little disappointed. "Even if you hate me, you can't make up such a story to lie to me, right?"
"I didn't lie to you."
Shi Nian was exhausted both physically and mentally. "There's no point in arguing about this, Si Han. Time will tell. I only treat my senior as a friend. If you don't believe me, then no matter how much I explain, it will be useless."
Feng Sihan was a little annoyed, "You don't believe me."
"How can I believe you? If what you said is true, and the senior knows that we are married, and he still tells you such misleading words behind my back, wouldn't it create a rift between you and me and sow discord between us?"
Shi Nian's words instantly sobered Feng Sihan up, "You make sense."
Shi Nian felt tired, because he was the one who didn't trust her, but on the other hand, he agreed with what she said.
She was a little confused about Feng Sihan's train of thought.
Shi Nian clenched the gift box in her hand and tilted her head to look out the window. "I don't want to argue anymore. Before I go home, please take me to my best friend's house. It's in the community in front."
Feng Sihan didn't say anything else and drove over as she asked.
Shi Nian got off the car alone and went straight to Zhao Xinyue's house.
On the way upstairs, she called her best friend, and as soon as she reached the door, it opened.
Shi Nian was in a low mood and didn't go in. She just handed the jewelry box to her.
Zhao Xinyue was a little confused, "This is..."
"Xinyue, the senior likes you too. This is the necklace he gave you. He also asked me to pass on a message to you, telling you not to be embarrassed. If you want to go find him, he is always in the store."
Zhao Xinyue's eyes burst into surprise. She hugged Shi Nian's neck and kissed her, "Niannian, I love you so much!"
Shi Nian forced a smile, declined her best friend's invitation to come in and sit down, walked out of the community, and got into the van in silence.
The atmosphere in the car was a little cold and angry. The more Shi Nian thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Feng Sihan actually didn't believe her.
Shi Nian tried to calm down when Feng Sihan suddenly called her name.
