She rushes to the stair to look down, and a figure appears in her vision.
She looks carefully and finds that it is Chen Qiaolan who is packing things.
“Aunt Chen, why don’t you go to bed? It’s so late”
Chen Qiaolan is taken aback. When she sees it is Fu Zhengzheng, she answers smilingly, “I will go back tomorrow, and I want to tidy things up so that can find them easily.”
Fu Zhengzheng now sees there is a list on the table, which shows in great detail where some frequently used things are placed.
Fu Zhengzheng is angry at Han Siqi’s cunning, but touched by Chen Qiaolan’s kindness. Seeing Chen Qiaolan pounding her back, she hurries to help Chen Qiaolan sit down, gently rubbing Chen Qiaolan’s waist, but can’t help complaining, “Aunt Chen, can’t I look for them myself? Look at you. You’re not in good health, but still bother to help me in the middle of the night.”
“Don’t be guilty. I mainly do this for Master Siqi.”
“He is old enough. Do you fear that I will starve him to death? Okay, Aunt Chen, let me do it for you.” Fu Zhengzheng helps Chen Qiaolan go back to her room in spite of Chen Qiaolan’s unwillingness.
In fact, Chen Qiaolan has almost finished. Fu Zhengzheng just picks up some items and then puts the list into a drawer. As she turns around to go back to her room, she bumps into a “wall”.
A wall?
Fu Zhengzheng looks up. Expectedly, it is Han Siqi!
That’s it. How can there be a wall in the dining room?
Pretending not to see him, Fu Zhengzheng walks around him and then goes upstairs.
It’s Han Siqi’s turn to be depressed. Is he air?
But he doesn’t stop her. When she goes upstairs, he turns around and walks outside.
As Fu Zhengzheng arrives at the top of the stairs, she quickly dodges aside, secretly poking her head to peep downstairs.
The sound of door opening. The sound of door closing. The sound of car starting.
She rushes into the room, turns off the light, runs to the rooftop and pokes her head to look around. Han Siqi’s car has driven out of the yard.
Go out in the middle of the night again!
That night, she sent a message to Yang Tao to follow Han Siqi up, and then found that Han Siqi was meeting Fu Wenhai. She guessed that he probably went to force Fu Wenhai to find Lin Jiao.
What is he going to do tonight? Fu Zhengzheng speculates in her bed.
She doesn’t hear anything about his plans for tonight. Besides, he seldom goes out in the evening recently, and just works on his poor laptop in his room.
Suddenly, Fu Zhengzheng sits up: Han Siqi likes sex very much. Having not gone out for so many nights, does he want to date a ….woman because he can’t bear it?
Li Xiaomeng? Or Qiao Keren, who is often mentioned by them?
Or someone else?
Fu Zhengzheng is depressed. Men are indeed lower-body animals. Without women, they can’t live.
Humph!
Why is she unhappy when he goes out to date a woman? It’s not directly related to the case!
Come on, go to bed! Enjoy the freedom tonight, because she will not be so comfortable tomorrow night!
It takes a long time for her to toss and turn in bed before she can barely fall asleep.
*
The early morning sunshine falls quietly on the floor through the glass, shining brightly.
Fu Zhengzheng stretches and opens her eyes lazily. When she finds that the sky is so bright, she suddenly sits up. Seeing that only she lies on the bed, she pauses for a moment before screaming, “Fu Xing—”
There is no reply. She has no time to put on her coat and rushes directly into the bathroom, only to find that there is nobody in it!
Fu Xing usually likes to sleep late. He will not get up reluctantly until she wakes him up several times every day, and sometimes she needs to his little ears.
Fu Zhengzheng calls her son’s name while running downstairs. She has searched and called, but there is still no response from Fu Xing.
She runs upstairs again to look for him, and has even searched Han Siqi’s room, but still doesn’t find him. She begins to panic.
Aunt Chen and Han Siqi are not at home. Where can Fu Xing go?
After Fu Xing sneaked out from kindergarten to buy a daddy last time, she severely criticized him. So he shouldn’t do such rash things again.
Having searched downstairs, upstairs and at the gate of the courtyard, Fu Zhengzheng feels that her hands and feet become weak, and she begins to sweat.
When she finds her cellphone, she dials a familiar phone number without hesitation. But when she hears “the number you dialed is not be answered for the moment”, she grows more upset.
She runs out of the courtyard and comes across a security guard who is patrolling. She asks in a hurry, “Hello, did you see Fu Xing?”
Fu Xing is cute and honey-mouthed. He greets security guards every day when he passes the security booth, so everyone knows this lively little kid.
The security guard is stunned and then answers somewhat unnaturally, “Uh, oh, I saw them. He and Mr. Han is walking in the square over there.”
“Walking?” Fu Zhengzheng doesn’t understand and wants to ask him, but finds that the security guard bows his head and walks away with a red face.
He usually seems to be talkative. What’s wrong with him today?
Having no time to think about it, she runs to the square quickly.
Perhaps because of the good weather and fresh air, there are many people in the square, and a group of people gathers around to see something, bursting into laughter from time to time.
Fu Zhengzheng looks around but doesn’t find Fu Xing, so she cries aloud, “Fu—Xing—”.
“Mommy, I’m here!”
She recognizes that the sound comes from the crowd, but she can’t see him. Then she elbows through the crowd, seeing Fu Xing clapping his hands and laughing.
Fu Zhengzheng is very angry. She grabs Fu Xing’s clothes and pulls him over, crying, “Who allowed you to run around early in the morning?”
Looking at his furious mother, Fu Xing feels wronged, and says, “Mommy, I didn’t run around.”
“You didn’t? Do you know that Mommy is worried about you? If you dare to run out alone again, I’ll break your leg!”
In fact, when Fu Zhengzheng sees her son safe and sound, she sets her mind at rest, but she can’t help losing temper.
“Why are you so mean to a child?” Han Siqi chips in. He takes off his coat and puts it on Fu Zhengzheng, and then takes Fu Xing to one side, patting him on his back shoulder to comfort him.
Fu Zhengzheng looks up and down at Han Siqi, who is wearing a light-colored woolen sweater and grey trousers. There is some dust on his trouser legs and cuffs. His hair, which used to be tidy, is a little messy, and he seems to be somewhat tired.
Seeing that, Fu Zhengzheng gets more furious—he seems to have had too much sex!
Otherwise, how can his hands and feet become weak and then fall?
Fu Zhengzheng throws his coat back and snatches Fu Xing from his arms. “I scold my son. Is there anything to do with you?”
Han Siqi frowns and throws the coat to her again, saying in a commanding tone, “Put on the coat! Let’s talk about it at home. Fu Xing is also my son.”
“Bah! How can you be Fu Xing’s daddy?” Fu Zhengzheng throws the coat back again, and pokes her finger on Fu Xing’s head, saying, “Do you dare to run around in the future? If you meet a trafficker, you will be sold to the primeval forest!”
“Mommy, I called you in the morning when I got up, but you didn’t answer me.” Fu Xing pouts his lips with tears in his eyes, but dares not say anything aloud.
“Are you excusing your mistake? Go back to face the wall and meditate! You are only allowed to eat vegetables tonight!”
“Have you gone mad early in the morning?” Han Siqi seems to be a little annoyed. He puts the coat on his shoulder, pulls Fu Xing behind him and says, “Leave her alone, Fu Xing. Let’s go back home.”
“You two go back home? Why? It is me who is his blood mother!”
Fu Zhengzheng goes to pull Fu Xing angrily. Anyway, she dares not scold Han Siqi too severely. After all, he is her boss.
Onlookers are pointing at them, speculating about the relationship between the three persons.
From people’s discussion, Fu Zhengzheng can tell that she has gone too far. But she just can’t control her anger, shouting, “Stop, Fu Xing!”
Every time Fu Xing sees Fu Zhengzheng get angry, he will be very frightened. He stops and dares not to go, looking piteously at Han Siqi.
Han Siqi touches Fu Xing’s head, suddenly shouting at Fu Zhengzheng, “Fu Zhengzheng, I don’t have such a rude wife like you!”
Fu Zhengzheng is also in high dudgeon, so she shouts back without hesitation, “Han Siqi, I don’t have such a rude husband like you!”
Hearing this, onlookers smile at each other, believing they understand what is happening. An old lady laughs and says, “It’s a couple having a quarrel. Couples will soon make up after quarreling. It is nothing interesting.”
“We are not a couple!” realizing that she has said something wrong, Fu Zhengzheng immediately explains. But people don’t seem to be interested in such quarrels, and they just leave while chatting and laughing.
Fu Zhengzheng stamps while staring at Han Siqi. “You! You are tricking me!”
Han Siqi suppresses his smile and says, “You said it yourself.”
This woman can be stupid sometimes.
Fu Xing comes to shake Fu Zhengzheng’s hand and says softly, “Mommy, don’t be angry. I really called you this morning, but Daddy said you were too tired. Mommy, I dare not do that next time. Don’t be angry, will you?”
Fu Xing’s clear eyes and innocent words soften Fu Zhengzheng’s heart. She touches his hand and says gently, “Don’t get out alone next time. Mommy will worry about you.”
“Ok.” Seeing that his mother has forgiven him, Fu Xing becomes excited at once. “Mummy, let’s practice walking, will you?”
“Practice walking?” Fu Zhengzheng is confused again.
“Yes. We will compete tomorrow. Daddy said we would make loud noises when we walked, which would wake up Mommy. In order to make Mommy sleep more, we came here to practice.” Fu Xing raises the rope in his hand.
Fu Zhengzheng now recalls that Fu Xing mentioned the parent-child activities to her yesterday, and one of the activities is the three-legged race. The family that arrives first wins.
She doesn’t expect Han Siqi to be so enthusiastic, coming to practice with her son in the early morning.
But they have just walked for a while, and he should get so tired!
Fu Zhengzheng is still unhappy.
“Mummy, would you like to join us together?” Fu Xing excitedly demonstrates with a rope.
“We will practice it in the afternoon. Now let’s go back home.” Han Siqi throws his coat to Fu Zhengzheng for the third time and then holds Fu Xing’s hand, ready to walk away.
“I’m not cold!” Fu Zhengzheng pouts.
Seeing Fu Zhengzheng being about to throw back the coat, Han Siqi stares at her and says, “It is not for you to keep warm, but to cover your body.”
When Fu Zhengzheng looks down, she suddenly gets embarrassed and blushes, quickly putting on the loose coat and fastening the buttons.Originally, she was wearing pajamas when she got up in the morning, and forgot to put on her clothes. Although the pajamas are not very thin, something can still be faintly seen. They are shaking especially when she walks, which look very strange.God! No wonder the security guard blushed and avoided to look at her.Hearing what Han Siqi said, Fu Xing looks back and strokes his face, saying with a grimace, “Mommy, how shameful. How shameful.”Actually, he doesn’t know what Han Siqi meant by “cover body”.Fu Zhengzheng blushes and is too embarrassed to speak anymore. Han Siqi threw the coat to her several times, which indicates that he has seen that already.When they get home, Fu Zhengzheng changes her clothes and has some snacks before taking Fu Xing to kindergarten.
Fu Zhengzheng immediately covers her chest, but finds that she is wearing high-collar clothes today. Then she quickly puts her legs together and pulls down her clothes, trying to cover her exposed body.“Hahahaha…” The man in front of her suddenly bursts out laughing.Fu Zhengzheng looks again and finds that it is Han Siqi!Looking down at herself, she finds that she is wrapped up well. There is just some dust on her clothes. Knowing that she has been fooled, she gets annoyed and shouts at him, “Are you crazy? Is it funny to make fool of others?”Han Siqi looks at the lane and turns the laughter into a sneer, “Hey, have you ended your date?”“What?” Fu Zhengzheng is confused by the nonsensical question.Han Siqi frowns, asking, “You desperately rushed across the road. Which man are you dating?”It turns out that the car which almost hit her is his! Fu Zhengzheng immediately satirizes, “I am no
Fu Zhengzheng asks her son to enter the room, and then walks down several sets of stairs, listening intently to what is happening downstairs.“Why did you power down your phone?” Han Sixian asks.“It was too disturbing.”“Disturbing? You don’t promise me, so of course I will disturb you.”“I have no time tomorrow.”“You must go tomorrow!”“I will see her when I finish my work tomorrow.”“Siqi…”Han Sixian is just about to say something when he is interrupted by the ringtone of his mobile phone.“What? Ok, we will go there immediately.” Han Sixian’s voice changes obviously. After hanging up the phone, he hurries out.“What happened, brother?” Han Siqi also follows his brother out.“Your sister-in-law called and said...” The following words fade with the bang of the gate.When Fu Zhengzheng rushes to the rooftop, she finds Han Siqi jumps onto Ha
Fu Xing doesn’t dodge it, but just raises his head waiting for the arrival of the broom. Just then, the door opens. Han Siqi comes in quickly and grabs the broom which is about to fall on Fu Xing, shouting, “What are you doing?”Seeing Han Siqi wearing a brand-new suit, Fu Zhengzheng gets angrier. “I am beating my son. It has nothing to do with outsiders.”“I am not an outsider. I am his daddy!”“How can you be his daddy?” Fu Zhengzheng says without thinking about it.Suddenly, Fu Xing shakes off Han Siqi’s hand and cries again, “I don’t have a daddy! I am a child without daddy!”Fu Zhengzheng feels her heart is aching, but she doesn’t go to comfort Fu Xing, because she wants him to face the reality.Han Siqi’s expression is somewhat complicated, and his tone becomes very gentle and sincere, “Xingxing, I am sorry. Daddy really had something urgent to do today. Daddy will never stand you up again. Can you f
“What?” Fu Zhengzheng turns around.“What’s on your mind?”“Nothing.” Fu Zhengzheng says in a toneless voice and then leaves.Ji Muxian stares at Fu Zhengzheng’s back for a while before he leaves.After taking back her clothes, Fu Zhengzheng comes directly to the kindergarten to pick up Fu Xing.“Mommy, what’s for dinner tonight?” Fu Xing is obviously in a good mood, because he does not stop talking all the way.Fu Zhengzheng knows that her son’s happiness comes from Han Siqi who took Fu Xing to kindergarten this morning. Although she didn’t come with them, she could imagine how proud Fu Xing was in front of other children after winning back his lost face.“Mommy, don’t prepare too much rice. Daddy won’t come back for dinner at night.”“How do you know?” Fu Zhengzheng, who is preparing rice, stops immediately.“Daddy told me this morning that he would go out for dinne
She remembers that five years ago, she secretly came to B city and found the place where she met Nian Xi. Unfortunately, at that time, the place was in a total mess. She was told that this piece of land was bought by a developer to build a resort.It is the Ten-Mile Sunshine Resort.After that, she had never been to B city until she was assigned this mission.Looking around, Fu Zhengzheng smiles bitterly.If she hasn’t been here six years ago, how could she know that it used to be a residential area?The sad, warm, thrilling, and lingering scenes six years ago are as vivid as the playback of movies.When she looks up at the flashing words again, she feels disgusted—she would not have missed Nian Xi but for the construction of the resort.Fu Zhengzheng slowly walks forward with a sigh.Suddenly, a man rushes from a lane, hitting her directly. She doesn’t watch out and is knocked to
“Humph! You are not Nian Xi. When did you become the old one?” Fu Zhengzheng says coldly.In fact, she really doesn’t resist his embrace. But thinking of all kinds of women in his arms, can she accept his body with the fragrance from other women’s bodies?“Don’t contact with that man!”“It is none of your business!” Fu Zhengzheng doesn’t know which man he was referring to, and she just pouts habitually.“Don’t challenge my patience!”Han Siqi grabs her arm with greater strength, which makes her gasp with pain. She grasps his arm with her both hands and says in pain, “Let me go. You can date other women, why can’t I? Who am I to you? And who are you to me? Why do you interfere with my business? If Fu Xing hadn’t bought you to be his daddy, we would not have known each other!”Han Siqi seems to be touched, and loosens his grip. Fu Zhengzheng pushes him away and groans. Then she hurries upstairs. After turnin
“Hello, Miss Qiao. Could you wait a moment, please?” Xu Yan’s voice suddenly sounds outside the door.“Let me wait? Xu Yan, have you burned your brain? Should I wait when I am looking for Siqi? I’ll ask Siqi to fire you later.”“Miss Qiao, Miss Qiao, Mr. Han just told me not to let anyone in. Miss Qiao—” Xu Yan can’t stop her. Qiao Keren has pushed the door in.When she sees Han Siqi staring at the computer, her anger instantly turns to a smile. She twists her soft waist walks toward Han Siqi, totally ignoring the assistant sitting aside.Fu Zhengzheng gasps in her seat and secretly wipes the sweat stains on her palms.Luckily, Xu Yan’s voice sounded in time, so that Han Siqi let go of her in time, and her hand left the cup in time.She can’t be so impulsive next time. She warns herself. Now she can’t imagine the scene of a cup of hot tea pouring on Han Siqi.She never wants to hurt him, but s
Ji Yashu is going to walk out with Han Tengyue. At this moment, a bang comes behind. Others shout simultaneously. She turns around instantly and sees Fu Xing embraced by Han Siqi. The chair on which Fu Xing sat just now topples on the floor.It turns out that when Han Tengyue and Ji Yashu intended to go to the sitting room, Fu Xing, who was standing on the chair, wanted to climb down it and go with them. Unexpectedly, he missed his step and fell to one side with the chair. Luckily, Han Siqi was nearest to him. He saw it, rushed over and caught him in time. Thus, he escaped from being hit by the chair.They all rush to see if Fu Xing is hurt.Ji Yashu realizes what happened. She runs to him panickily, holds Fu Xing and shouts, “Oh, my dear, why were you so careless? What if you are hurt?”“What’s wrong? What’s wrong?” Han Tengyue turns back too. Hearing what Ji Yashu says, he parts the crowd and examines how Fu Xing is.
“What’s up?” Fu Zhengzheng shouts before the wheelchair approaches the crowd.Someone recognizes Fu Zhengzheng and runs to her to explain instantly, “Don’t worry. They come to see Tang Feng.”Han Siqi recognizes this one as Zhen Chao’s watchman and asks, “Is Tang Feng inside?”The watchman nods, “Yes, he just entered. These comrades-in-arms heard that Tang Feng came back alive and all felt excited. They asked for leave this morning and came here from the troop to see him specially.”Han Siqi and Fu Zhengzheng sigh with relief. Fu Zhengzheng smiles, “Are they the comrades-in-arms that refused to leave the unpopulated island that day?”The watchman nods again, “Yes. They were once Tang Feng’s subordinates and also have gone through fire and water many times with Tang Feng.”“No wonder they have such a close relationship.” Fu Zhengzheng gasps in admiration and then asks, “Are Zhu Ting and Tang Feng OK?”
“What?” Han Siqi and Fu Zhengzheng cast their eyes to Lu Song.“Tang Feng is back.”“What?!” Han Siqi and Fu Zhengzheng are both shocked. Han Siqi asks at once, “Is he back alive or…”Or is his corpse sent back?“Alive! He is alive! He is only injured.” Lu Song’s voice is also full of surprise and excitement.“Where is he now?” Han Siqi can’t wait to go out.“Siqi, wait for me.” Fu Zhengzheng sits up.“He’s in Zhu Ting’s ward.”Han Siqi asks, “ICU?”“No, another high-class VIP ward. The second one on the left upstairs.” Lu Song says and pushes the wheelchair from the door.Han Siqi lifts Fu Zhengzheng to the wheelchair immediately, pushes her out and goes upstairs straight.“Brother! Why are you here? Did you see Tang Feng?” As soon as coming out of the lift, Fu Zhengzheng sees Zhen Chao standing outside the ward.Z
“Zhengzheng? Zhengzheng? Help, help.” Zhu Linglong becomes panicky and shouts.Min Zhongxu finds her wrong. Not stopping his feet, he turns around quickly and rushes out to call the doctor crazily.Soon doctors and nurses rush in together.Min Zhongxu takes Zhu Linglong out at once, because he is afraid that she will be knocked over by the rushing medical workers.Zhu Linglong refuses to go out, “I have to look after Zhengzheng.”“Darling, you’re not a doctor. You can do nothing but mess it up.” Min Zhongxu smiles at Zhu Linglong after calling Han Siqi.Zhu Linglong vents her anger on Min Zhongxu instantly, “Don’t you know Zhengzheng is so weak that she can’t have a blow? You know that she is always worried about Zhu Ting’s health, but you still told her the terrible news. If there is something wrong with Zhengzheng, how can you explain to Han Siqi?”Min Zhongxu explains with a grievance, “I d
“Brother, what’s up?” Fu Zhengzheng is seized by a sense of foreboding.“Something happened to my subordinate investigating Xiao Jinchong. I’ll go and see.” Then Zhen Chao strides out.“Brother! Brother!” Fu Zhengzheng can’t stop Zhen Chao.Han Siqi stops her, “Let him go. Now the case about Brotherhood is nearly ending. Perhaps it is not a serious problem. Don’t worry.”“My brother looked anxious. How can I ease my mind?” Fu Zhengzheng keeps staring at the ward door.“Take it easy. If you know how many soldiers your brother has transferred to cooperate with the police of B City to end the case and deal with its aftermath, you will feel relieved definitely. Besides, without Xiao Jinchong’s instruction, Brotherhood is already in a state of disunity, so what are you worrying about?”Fu Zhengzheng thinks what Han Siqi says is reasonable and then doesn’t persist.Han Siqi helps her half-lie with a
Five days later, in Shuguang Hospital of Weihan.Fu Zhengzheng sits in a wheelchair. Han Siqi pushes her behind and comes slowly to the outside of ICU.She doesn’t want to use the wheelchair, but if she doesn’t, Han Siqi won’t allow her to go out of the ward. Because the doctor said women during the early days after miscarriage should not stand for a long time or work hard, or they may have metroptosis or other gynecological diseases. Han Siqi always keeps it in his mind.In fact, after being nursed for a few days, Fu Zhengzheng, who has a quite good physique, gets much better, though she still looks pale. But she can’t dissuade Han Siqi who is stubborn. Thinking that he is for her good, she yields to him so that he won’t worry about her.She is looking worriedly at Zhu Ting who is sunk in sleep, while Han Siqi is gazing at her anxiously, “Don’t be too worried about her. The doctor says she has got through the dangerous period and
Tang Feng’s face turns pale with fear. He didn’t expect Zhu Ting would be pointed at and appear before him soon after he pointed his gun at Xiao Jinchong and asked him for Zhu Ting.Xiao Jinchong fears nothing with Zhu Ting in his hand. He glances at Tang Feng, who is also pointed at by his subordinates, and says faintly, “Tang Feng, if you don’t want to see you woman die in front of you, put down your gun.”Tang Feng glances at Zhu Ting with complicated eyes but says nothing.However, Zhu Ting laughs coldly at him, “Tang Feng, do you think I will fall in love with you if you fall out with Xiao Jinchong? You’re dreaming! In my eyes, you are only a hooligan forever, while I’m a soldier. I will look down upon you forever…”Tang Feng’s face changes suddenly, “Ting, you…”Without saying anything, Xiao Jinchong just looks at them coldly.Zhu Ting glances at Tang Feng with disdain, “Well, are you surprised to kn
Helicopter?Fu Zhengzheng looks up immediately, but the trees are so dense that she can just hear the sound and can’t see the helicopter.“Zhengzheng, hold me tightly. We’ll leave now.” Han Siqi carries her on his back again.Then Fu Zhengzheng notices a ladder before them. Han Siqi is holding it with his hand and is about to climb it.“Zhu Ting. Zhu Ting is here too!” How can she forget the comrade-in-arms that once went through thick and thin with her?“She will be rescued. Let’s leave here first.”“Mr. Han, be careful. We’ll protect you.” A person says in a low voice below.Soon Lu Song climbs up first. Then Han Siqi climbs up the ladder with Fu Zhengzheng on his back. Lu Song helps them on the top.“Zhengzheng, I’ll rush you to the hospital now. You must hold on.” Han Siqi holds Fu Zhengzheng tightly in his arms.Fu Zhengzheng has lost the strength to speak. She j
Xiandan is humming a tune on the hay. He is startled by Fu Zhengzheng’s question and sits up immediately, “Heroine, what are you going to do?” “Tell me. Where is the explosive-igniting point of the drug factory? Tell me now, or I will shoot!”“You…you want to explode the factory? We’ll die then! The explosives will demolish the whole island!” Apparently Xiandan finds there is something wrong with Fu Zhengzheng and asks tentatively, “Heroine, are you sick?” “No more nonsense. Tell me right now.” Fu Zhengzheng throws her head for more times and tries to brace herself up.“Heroine, you must have a cold. Alas, we can’t find cold medicine here. But don’t worry. I know a kind of herb that can treat cold. I’ll get some for you.”“Stop!” Fu Zhengzheng pulls the trigger.Xiandan pauses in panic and stammers, “Don’t…don’t shoot. Be careful that the gun will discharge accidentally.”“I just want to ta
