Chapter 76 Shi Nian bowed and said: Hello, I am Yining.
The warmth of her lips reached her, but Shi Nian felt only humiliation.
She struggled fiercely, but Lu Yanzhi held her down tightly, making it impossible for her to move.
Feeling ashamed and angry, Shi Nian opened her mouth and bit his lip hard, so hard that she tasted blood.
Only then did Lu Yanzhi release her.
He straightened up and wiped the blood from his lips with his knuckles.
Shi Nian raised her hand, but Lu Yanzhi wouldn't give her another chance to hit him. He grabbed her wrist and pinned it against the tree.
Shi Nian was furious. What was he doing?
After visiting Han Wei, he rushed over to kiss her early in the morning.
Insult her?
He disgusted her!
A surge of hatred rose within her, and she raised her foot to kick.
The next moment, he restrained her.
"Shi Nian, do you think I would let the same thing happen again?" Lu Yanzhi said coldly.
He was just momentarily careless last night; otherwise, how could she have hit him?
He had thought Shi Nian had finally learned to be sensible, but she had lied to him once again.
They verbally refuse, but whether it's making the child call her "Mom" or bringing him back to the old house, isn't it all just a way to control him through his grandparents?
With his self-imposed logical loop closed, Lu Yan's anger subsided even more.
How did she become like this?
She used to be so gentle and sensible.
All the heartache I felt for her last night now feels like an insult to him.
The force on my wrist increased, and Shi Nian's hand hurt a lot when I gripped it.
Unable to break free once again, Shi Nian hated that her physical strength was no match for his.
If she hadn't been drunk last night, and if she hadn't wanted to explain things to the two elderly people, she wouldn't have stayed here at all!
"What exactly do you want?!" Shi Nian shouted angrily.
"When you go to see your grandparents later, don't say anything you shouldn't," Lu Yanzhi warned. "Shi Nian, don't make me hate you."
Shi Nian was so angry she almost laughed.
"In what capacity do you speak to me now?" she said coldly, "your future ex-husband?"
"Shi Nian!"
"Let me go." Shi Nian said without mercy, "Don't make me think you're just a brute with no intelligence!"
...
The two were arguing in the woods, which was observed by Butler Wu.
He went from wanting to mediate the fight to now sighing helplessly.
"Madam, you originally wanted them to stay overnight so that they could talk things out and make up."
Butler Wu shook his head, sighed deeply, and muttered to himself, "But I think the misunderstanding between the two of them seems to be even deeper than before."
"What should we do..."
Seeing the two arguing as they walked toward the villa, Butler Wu followed them from a distance.
They ate breakfast in silence. Shi Nian, along with Grandpa Lu and Madam Lu, omitted the details about Tanzanite and only explained the matter of adopting Sisi based on Fu Jinyan's invitation.
The two elderly people had no objection to Shi Nian's decision to adopt Sisi under her mother's name.
After all, in the eyes of the two elders, although Lu Yanzhi and Shi Nian were arguing, they were still married. As long as they talked things out and cleared up the misunderstandings, they would have a long life ahead of them and would have children in the future.
Look, there are still traces left by the two of them on Lu Yanzhi's lips.
Moreover, neither of them is yet 30 years old, and they are not legally old enough to be adoptive parents, so this is the best way to handle things.
As for having another child, it's not a problem at all. If Shi Nian likes it, she should focus on getting proper medical treatment and raising the child properly.
"Niannian, bring Sisi back to visit when you have time," the old man said gently at the end.
Shi Nian didn't want to agree, but she thought it was better to avoid trouble. Besides, given the power and status of the Lu family in City A, it would be easy for the old man to see Sisi if he really wanted to.
It would be better if she agreed, then she could control when, where, and how they met. Besides, Old Master Lu isn't that kind of person.
So she nodded.
Seeing Shi Nian nod, Lu Yanzhi, who was standing to the side, became even more certain.
However, he wouldn't show it in front of Lu Qiansheng; he would just lower his eyes slightly and remain silent.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the visit to the old house came to an end.
After leaving Mingyue Manor, Shi Nian got out of the car and walked to her own car.
Opening the car door, fastening the seatbelt, starting the engine, and setting off—all in one smooth motion.
She didn't look back at Lu Yanzhi even once.
Lu Yanzhi watched as Shi Nian drove away decisively. He followed without saying a word until the next intersection, when his car turned around and the two cars drove off in different directions.
Shi Nian first picked up Sisi and took her to school. Then, she received a call from Lin Zhihuan.
"Niannian, do you have time to come over? We're currently recovering the data from Xiaoxiao's phone!" Lin Zhihuan's voice was full of excitement.
After the second live broadcast of "The Voice of Heaven", Lin Zhihuan told her that she met a viewer who was secretly recording the broadcast. They chatted together that night and discovered that the viewer had been trying to expose the person, but was struggling to find suitable evidence.
Later, Lin Zhihuan had several more contacts and finally gained each other's trust, and then they matched the items in their hands.
The data expert that Lin Yuchen had previously introduced to Lin Zhihuan happened to be overseas, and it would be inconvenient to mail her a mobile phone.
The last time Lin Zhihuan and Qiqian met was yesterday afternoon. Qiqian was excited to learn that Lin Zhihuan had a cell phone in her hand.
The two agreed to go find Qiqian's brother together today to restore the data.
“Although I can do this myself, Niannian, I’m nervous. Why don’t you come over with us and we can plan the specific actions together?” Lin Zhihuan’s voice came through.
"Hiss—" Shi Nian stepped on the brakes.
“Okay, I’ll go now. Send me the address,” Shi Nian said.
Just as Shi Nian hung up the phone, her phone vibrated, and then the address was sent over.
Shi Nian immediately turned around and headed towards the address provided by Lin Zhihuan.
In just a moment, the car had stopped downstairs.
On the 7th floor, in room 716, Shi Nian rang the doorbell.
A moment later, someone came and opened the door; it was Lin Zhihuan.
"Niannian, you're here!" Lin Zhihuan's face was full of excitement.
She had been waiting for this day for a long time.
Ever since Shi Nian fell down the stairs, she has felt guilty. If she can successfully recover the data this time, she will feel better, at least she will have done something for Shi Nian.
Not to mention that there's also Qi Qian next to her who's going to expose the audio from the scene, which will definitely slap Han Wei in the face!
"Do you want to wear a mask?" Lin Zhihuan rummaged in her pocket. "I haven't told Qi Qian your real identity."
Shi Nian shook her head and said no need.
These are the people who helped her, the people who actually put in the effort. She needs people to do things for her, and her team needs people she can trust.
This is her sincerity.
So, Shi Nian went into the house and closed the door. When Qi Qian came to greet her, Shi Nian bowed slightly and extended her right hand.
“Hello, I’m Yining,” she said.
Qi Qian's eyes widened; he seemed about to scream, but immediately covered his mouth.
After a pause of about three seconds, Qi Qian finally said, "You...you are Shi Nian!"
