At four o'clock, Jiang Zhining sat at the bar, looking at the lively scene in the store, feeling a lot of emotions in her heart.
I have always wanted to achieve financial freedom, but I never expected that this wish would be realized in this way.
Just as Jiang Zhining was distracted, several policemen walked in from outside. Seeing them, Jiang Zhining smiled and said, "Mr. Police, are you coming to dinner?"
The police walked up to Jiang Zhining and said, "Miss Jiang, have you seen Shen Anan?"
Hearing this, Jiang Zhining was surprised: "Didn't she get arrested?"
"She deliberately committed suicide today and ran away while receiving treatment in the hospital." The police said truthfully.
Hearing this, Jiang Zhining was shocked: "Run away?"
"Yes, she ran away. If you see her, Miss Jiang, please remember to contact us immediately."
Jiang Zhining nodded: "Okay, if I see her, I will definitely tell you."
The police gave a few more instructions and then left the hot pot restaurant.
After the police left, Jiang Zhining's brows knitted slightly. They'd already sent her to prison, yet she managed to escape.
"Sister Zhining, that Shen Anan won't come to settle the score with you, right?" Li Li asked worriedly.
After all, if it weren't for Jiang Zhining, she wouldn't have been arrested and sentenced, and the two of them would have always been at odds.
Jiang Zhining frowned: "I guess the police think so too. According to the degree of Shen Anan's hatred for me, he will definitely find a chance to retaliate against me."
"Then you have to be careful." Li Li warned, "And don't act alone these few days, so as not to give her any chance."
Jiang Zhining raised the corner of her mouth and said with a smile: "Okay, I will pay attention."
After a brief chat, Jiang Zhining continued to work. She knew that excessive worry was pointless, and there was no other way except to be more vigilant.
"She won't hurt the children, right?" Jiang Zhining denied this idea. After all, they were not her biological children, and Shen Anan would not implicate innocent people.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Jiang Zhining prepared to leave the store.
"Sister Furong, I'm leaving first. Please take care of the things in the store. If there is anything urgent, please call the family compound." Jiang Zhining reminded.
"Okay, I got it. You can get busy now." Li Furong said with a smile.
Jiang Zhining nodded, then left the store and went to the kindergarten to pick up Xixi.
Arriving at the kindergarten, I saw some children returning home one after another. Children in the 1980s were not as precious as today's children, and they usually walked home on their own.
Considering that Xixi was still young and mentally immature, Jiang Zhining decided to pick her up first so that she could go home with the other children living in the compound.
Xixi sat on a small stool, supporting herself with her hands on both sides and shaking her legs.
Her big dark eyes stared at the door, hoping to see a familiar figure. When Jiang Zhining appeared, Xixi's eyes lit up: "Mom!!"
With a shout, Xixi was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins. She opened her short fleshy hands and ran towards her at the fastest speed.
Jiang Zhining caught her with a smile: "You're running so fast, if you fall, you'll be in pain and cry."
Xixi raised her head and said with a smile, "Xixi is so smart, she won't fall down. Don't you think Xixi is smart, Mom?"
Seeing her blinking, Jiang Zhining replied lovingly, "Yes, yes, our Xixi is the smartest."
"Hehe." Xixi smiled sweetly.
Jiang Zhining chatted briefly with the teacher and then took Xixi away from the kindergarten.
Holding Jiang Zhining's hand, Xixi jumped briskly.
Suddenly remembering something, Xixi stopped abruptly.
"What's going on?" Jiang Zhining was puzzled.
Xixi said mysteriously, "Mom, Xixi has something to give you."
Hearing this, Jiang Zhining was curious: "What is it?"
Xixi deliberately kept the secret until she took out a painting from her schoolbag.
Xixi held the painting in both hands and said with a smile: "Mom, this is Xixi's painting. It's a gift for you."
"Thank you, Xixi." Jiang Zhining took it happily. When she saw the painting, she was actually moved.
It was a family portrait Xixi had drawn. Although the painting was very childish, she could tell that one was her, the other was Song Yuzhou, and the three children were Song Chen, Song Ye, and Xixi.
The family of five held hands, their faces filled with bright smiles.
Jiang Zhining stood in the middle, as if she was the most important member of their family.
"This is our home." Xixi said sweetly, "This is Xixi's first painting."
Seeing her proud look, Jiang Zhining's eyes sparkled with a smile: "Xixi draws very well."
Xixi opened her arms, hugged Jiang Zhining, and rubbed her head against her body: "Mom, Xixi loves you."
Stroking her head, Jiang Zhining's heart was sweetened by her: "I love you too."
This slightly immature painting was the most beautiful one she had ever seen.
Jiang Zhining held Xixi's hand and they walked towards home together.
As a result, just as he reached the gate of the military compound, he met Sheng Hao who was about to leave the compound.
When he saw her, a flash of nervousness crossed Sheng Hao's eyes.
After not seeing her for a while, Jiang Zhining had become even more beautiful. Her graceful figure and skin were as smooth as a baby's, without any of the cracks that other women had, and she was flawless.
The current Jiang Zhining made his heart beat faster. Thinking about how he had taken advantage of Qiao and felt that she was annoying, he really didn't know what was good for him.
As he was lost in thought, Jiang Zhining and Xixi came towards him.
Sheng Hao subconsciously adjusted his collar and was about to greet her with a smile, but he saw Jiang Zhining walking past him with an expressionless face and ignoring him directly.
Seeing her walk by indifferently, Sheng Hao's figure stiffened.
"Mom, that uncle seems to want to talk to you." Xixi looked back at Sheng Hao and said.
Jiang Zhining said calmly: "We don't need to talk to him. Remember, don't talk to strangers."
Xixi nodded: "Xixi remember it."
Sheng Hao listened to their not-so-small conversation and blushed in embarrassment at his own self-conceit.
She used to chase after him, but now she remains indifferent even if he stands in front of her.
It's really a changing world.
Sheng Hao just watched her leave, feeling a little angry.
Then he left angrily.
Behind a big tree not far away, Shen Anan stared at them intently.
Seeing the happy and warm scene of Jiang Zhining and Xixi, his heart was already filled with hatred. Especially when he saw Sheng Hao's lingering feelings for Jiang Zhining, his hatred instantly increased.
"It's all Jiang Zhining's fault. Sheng Hao abandoned me because of her." Shen Anan clenched her fists jealously. She felt that if she hadn't been divorced, she wouldn't be abandoned by her friends and relatives.
"She stole my life and made me a fugitive! Jiang Zhining, I won't let you go! If I don't have a good life, you won't have one either!!"
