Chapter 227
Fu Zhengzheng listens to He Menghuai’s urgent speaking, and her heart is covered with a sense of foreboding . She asks anxiously, “What happened to Yang Tao?”
“Nothing . Captain Yang needs to deal with some work of the team, so he can’t make it . The task about Qiao Keren is left to you . I have a task to finish . See you . ” He Menghuai hangs up the phone in haste .
“Hello? Menghuai? Why did he hang up?” Fu Zhengzheng mutters . She calls Yang Tao, but no one answers it, which makes her more puzzled .
Noticing her strange look, Han Siqi sits up and asks, “What’s wrong?”
“Yang Tao planned to come to C City for Qiao Keren, but He Menghuai just told me he couldn’t make it and asked me to look for Qiao Keren . It’s strange that I can’t get through to him . ”
“He might be carrying out a task . ” Han Siqi drags her into bed and wraps her with the quilt .
Fu Zhengzheng still holds the phone and mutters while half lying, “I feel something is wrong . ”
Han Siqi turns around and embraces her, “It’s just past 6:00 . Continue to sleep . ”
Fu Zhengzheng calls Yang Tao again, but it’s still not answered . Then she puts down the phone and lies down .
“Grandfather, do I run fast?” Fu Xing’s happy voice comes from downstairs suddenly .
“Yes, Xingxing is awesome . Can you keep running every day?” Zhen Mingzhi says smilingly .
“Yes!”
Han Siqi opens his eyes with a rush and becomes fully awake . He hurries to get up, put on clothes and gets out of the bed .
Fu Zhengzheng sits up and stops him, “Dad is just taking Fu Xing to run . He doesn’t call you . ”
Han Siqi pushes away her hand, “Didn’t you hear dad was asking me actually?”
“Don’t care about him . You just act dumb and pretend not to hear it . ”
“No . ” Han Siqi doesn’t listen to Fu Zhengzheng and puts on his shoes .
At this time, Zhen Mingzhi’s preach comes from downstairs again, “Xingxing, you have to keep exercising . Only in this way, will you be as strong as your Uncle Sun . ”
“Who is Uncle Sun?”
“He is your Aunt Qiubo’s brother . He is very strong and can lift such a heavy dumbbell easily to such a height . ”
“Really? Uncle Sun is fabulous!”
“If you and your mummy go out with Uncle Sun, no one dares to bully you . ”
“It’s not right for dad to talk about that with Fu Xing! Siqi, don’t care about him . ” Fu Zhengzheng stamps her feet . She turns around only to find Han Siqi has gone out of the room .
She dashes downstairs with a pair of slippers and a thick coat .
In the yard, Han Siqi is trotting to exercise his feet strength with sandbags tied to his feet, while Fu Xing is squatting near Zhen Mingzhi and tying a small sandbag to his foot clumsily .
After the sandbag has been tied to his feet for a while, he drops onto the sandbag, “Grandfather, the sandbag is so heavy . ”
Zhen Mingzhi laughs, “This sandbag is prepared for your daddy’s exercise . You are a kid and doesn’t need it . ”
“But I want to be like daddy . ”
“Come on . I’ll teach you squatting stances . ”
Fu Xing pouts, “No, I want to run with daddy . ”
Seeing Han Siqi waving at him, he begins to trot after Han Siqi gladly, leaving Zhen Mingzhi behind .
“Daddy, do you take exercise in order to protect mummy and me?”
“Yes . ” Han Siqi replies smilingly while trotting .
“Daddy, I want to be as strong as you and protect mummy with you . ”
“OK . ”
“Hahaha…”
Against the warm sun that has just risen, Fu Xing’s happy voice spreads in the yard .
Fu Zhengzheng who stands near Zhen Mingzhi looks at the scene and feels warm in her heart, but she can’t help muttering, “Dad, yesterday Siqi bustled for Lin Yongcheng for over half a day, and he is really tired . ”
Zhen Mingzhi responds at once, “Exercise will be only good for health . ”
“It should be done step by step . ”
“Now he is only a little tired, but you’ve already felt sympathetic . When you are tired, will he be sympathetic to you?”
Fu Zhengzheng is struck dumb and replies with a smile instantly, “Yes, in the past…”
Zhen Mingzhi interrupts her, “I’m not relieved because I didn’t see it by myself . ”
Fu Zhengzheng sticks out her tongue and makes a face, “Dad, if my brother has a girlfriend, will you have to see her be tested like Siqi by yourself before allowing my brother to marry her?”
“Why not?”
Fu Zhengzheng wants to rebut, but thinking of Lin Yongcheng, she becomes soft and holds Zhen Mingzhi’s arm with a worshipful expression .
“It’s a must! Anyone that wants to enter our Zhen family must be strong, otherwise, he or she won’t be accepted . Don’t forget who the master of Zhen family is!”

Zhen Mingzhi laughs and reaches out to poke Fu Zhengzheng’s forehead, “What do you need me to help with?”
Fu Zhengzheng whose intention has been seen through grins and gets to the point directly .
“We haven’t found the girl . We want to talk with Xu Ziqiang today and compensate him for his nursing expenses and delaying in work . Please negotiate with Chief Tao for us and end it . ”
Zhen Mingzhi is doubtful, “Haven’t you really found the girl?”
Knowing she can’t conceal her father from it, Fu Zhengzheng meditates and replies, “That girl is afraid to influence her reputation and thus not willing to testify for Yongcheng—she said Xu Ziqiang wanted to sexually harass her . ”
Zhen Mingzhi meditates for a while and then says, “Go to talk with the girl . If she still doesn’t agree, let’s think about another solution . ”
Fu Zhengzheng is satisfied in her heart and nods instantly .
Chen Yuying comes out and waves at Fu Xing, “Xingxing, it’s time for breakfast . The kindergarten’s bus will come soon . ”
“OK . ” Then Fu Xing says to Han Siqi, “Daddy, I can’t run with you . ”
“Go ahead . ” Han Siqi waves at him smilingly .
Fu Xing turns around and runs towards Chen Yuying .
“Run slowly . ”
Zhen Mingzhi shouts behind him . Then he enters the house too . When walking to the door, he turns around, glances at Han Siqi and says, “It’s enough . Come to have breakfast . ”
“OK . ”
Han Siqi runs to Fu Zhengzheng who squats down immediately to untie the sandbags .
“Are you tired?”
“With my son and wife around, I’m not tired . ”
Fu Zhengzheng jokes, “Then ask dad to tie four sandbags to you tomorrow . By the way, dad has promised to help Yongcheng . ”
“Oh?”
“I lied to him by saying that the girl is afraid to influence her reputation and so she is unwilling to testify for Yongcheng . Dad asked us to talk with Qiao Keren once more . If she still doesn’t agree, we can turn to him . ”
Han Siqi knows Fu Zhengzheng’s intention and asks at once, “Will you really go to look for her?”
Fu Zhengzheng nods, “This is my task . I have to, no matter what the result will be . ”
“Maybe she is not willing to see you . ”

“If so, I’ll think about other methods . ”
Han Siqi doesn’t say more . They go back to the house, have breakfast and then tidy up the kitchen . After that, they go upstairs to change clothes . Seeing Yang Tao’s call on her phone, Fu Zhengzheng calls back at once . Yang Tao connects it and just says he went out for a task just now and didn’t call back . He leaves the task about Qiao Keren to her again and Fu Zhengzheng accepts it seriously . Then she goes downstairs with Han Siqi .
Zhen Mingzhi sits on the sofa in the sitting room . Seeing them go downstairs, he points to the table near the hallway and says, “I borrowed a car for you . The key is on the table . ”
“Thank you, dad . ” They say simultaneously .
They go out with the key and see a Hyundai being parked in the yard .
Fu Zhengzheng smiles, “We’ve been to the police office twice, but forgot to take the car key from Lin Yongcheng . ”
Han Siqi responds with a smile . They get into the car and drive to the community of Sunshine Garden . When they come to the property management center, Fu Zhengzheng shows her identity document . With the help of its staff, they find the name of Qiao Yunhan, master of the house . They live in Room 1601, Unit Three, Block Five .
“Do you come here for Mr . Qiao? He and his family are not at home these days . ” A female clerk in the property management center says .
“Not at home? Where have they gone?”
“It’s not clear . But the tap in his house wasn’t turned off completely the other day and water seeped down to downstairs . The downstairs household came to us and then we contacted him . His daughter came back to deal with it in a hurry and then left again . But you can have a try to see whether they have come back . ”
Fu Zhengzheng nods and is ready to go downstairs . Han Siqi asks the property management center for Qiao Yunhan’s phone number and then goes downstairs with her .
When they come to Qiao Yunhan’s house and press the doorbell, no one is at home indeed . Han Siqi takes out his phone and calls Qiao Yunhan, but it’s powered off!
“It’s powered off . ” Han Siqi shrugs .
They go downstairs frustratedly and sulk in the car .
Han Siqi asks in a muffled voice, “How about going downstairs to ask the property management center if they know Deng Anyu’s phone number?”
“Deng Anyu?” Fu Zhengzheng’s eyes light up, “Start the car now . I know where they are . ”
“Where are they?” Han Siqi is puzzled .
“C City Hospital! Do you remember the familiar face I saw on the fifth floor of the inpatient building yesterday? Now I recall . It’s Deng Anyu — Qiao Keren’s mother! She wore the hospital dress yesterday, so I couldn’t recall at that time . No wonder we couldn’t find Qiao Keren in surgery . It turns out that the hospitalized one is not her but her mother who is the gastroenterology department . ”
Han Siqi starts the car right now .
Soon they come to the nursing station on the fifth floor of the inpatient building in C City Hospital . They ask the nurses and get the information about Deng Anyu .
“But you are late . She has been discharged from the hospital . ”
“Discharged from the hospital?” Fu Zhengzheng is surprised and asks, “When?”
“This morning . ”
Fu Zhengzheng looks disappointed, “It seems that we have missed them . ”

“Don’t worry . Let’s go back to Sunshine Garden . ”
When Han Siqi is about to go, his phone rings and it’s from his mother Ji Yashu .
“Siqi, you must take Xingxing back within three days, no matter whether the foot of Fu Zhengzheng’s dad is healed or not! Otherwise, I’ll never be your mom anymore . ”
Han Siqi frowns and hangs up the phone directly without responding .
What he hates most is that his mother doesn’t ask about Zhen Mingzhi and Fu Zhengzheng when she calls . She only asks, “When will you and Fu Xing come back?”
His parents always ignore Fu Zhengzheng, which upsets him most — ignoring his wife means not accepting her, doesn’t it?
Finding Fu Zhengzheng is looking at him, he puts the phone into his pocket, smiles and goes downstairs with her .
Fu Zhengzheng knows what his parents says on phone . She doesn’t ask, gets into the car and comes to Sunshine Garden with him again .
The guard recognizes Fu Zhengzheng immediately and smiles warmly, “Miss Qiao has come back with her family . ”
“Oh? Really? Thanks . ” Fu Zhengzheng grins . Han Siqi drags her to walk fast and rushes to Qiao Yunhan’s house .
They knock at the door .
Han Siqi steps back to the landing secretly . Fu Zhengzheng glances at him and understands his meaning, so she doesn’t say anything .
At this moment, the door is opened by Qiao Yunhan who looks a little haggard .
“It’s you?” He is very surprised apparently . Then he calms down and asks drily, “What’s up, Miss Fu?”
Fu Zhengzheng tries to be polite, “Excuse me, I want to talk with Miss Qiao . ”
Qiao Keren hears the sound inside and walks out fast . When she sees Fu Zhengzheng, she asks coldly, “Oh, what makes Miss Fu travel such a long distance to see me? Is it because Siqi finds a new lover?”
Fu Zhengzheng smiles embarrassedly and shows her identity document to them, “Miss Qiao, I…”
Qiao Keren grabs her identity document, glimpses it and snorts, “Policewoman? Is a policewoman amazing?”
Then she throws away the identity document and Fu Zhengzheng hurries to catch it .
“Even if you are the police chief, we won’t welcome you . ” Qiao Keren reaches out to close the door .
“Miss Qiao, please wait . I have something to ask you!” Fu Zhengzheng pushes against the door instantly .
With an unapproachable expression, Qiao Keren reaches out both hands and closes the door with strength .
When the door is about to be closed, Fu Zhengzheng reaches out her hand into the crack under the emergency .
“Ah —”
