Yuan Yi had not seen Shi Man come to school for a long time. He only found out from Su Tang during the day that Shi Man had taken leave to manage the company at home recently. That was why he found a reason to come to the Shi family with Shi Mu today to see Shi Man.
Unexpectedly, he bumped into Shi Man and Yi Zheng returning together. His expression changed. “Manman, you and him…”
“We met by chance!” Shi Man quickly cut ties. She changed her shoes and took the initiative to stand beside him to express her stand.
Only then did Yuan Yi smile in satisfaction. He handed the tea in his hand to her to drink. “Drink something hot when you just entered. Aunt Shen said that she wants to cook personally tonight to reward you.”
“Really!” Shi Man pretended to be surprised and turned to Shen Xian. She deliberately ignored Yi Zheng’s exciting expression and held her hand.
Shen Xian glanced at Yi Zheng and said with a smile, “Why didn’t you invite Xiao Zheng in first?”
The smile on Shi Man’s face froze. She gasped in her heart and braced herself to look at Yi Zheng. “Do you want to come in for dinner?”
“Okay.” Yi Zheng agreed quickly as if he was afraid that she would go back on her word.
This time, it was Yuan Yi’s turn to fall. His and Yi Zheng’s gazes met in the air, causing a sizzle of smoke.
Shi Man held Su Tang’s hand and returned to the living room, leaving the two of them looking at each other.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she sat on the sofa, two men who looked like door gods sat on her left and right. Shi Man did not even swallow a mouthful of water and almost spat it out. She glanced at the two of them speechlessly and said, “Why don’t you go out and fight?”
As the two of them looked at her expressionlessly, their eyes were equally calm.
Shi Man quickly waved her hand and changed her words. “No need. Take a seat. Su Tang and I will go back to our room to rest.”
“It’s time to eat,” Yuan Yi reminded her gently.
“I’ll go too.” Yi Zheng followed closely without compromise.
Shi Man was about to have a headache. She sat back on the sofa and looked speechlessly at the two men who were competing in silence. She suddenly had the intention to tease them. She smiled and drank a cup of tea. “Do the two of you know how to cook?”
Yuan Yi and Yi Zheng looked over in confusion.
Shi Man explained calmly, “I suddenly feel that a man who can cook is very charming.”
Yi Zheng raised his eyebrows with a smile in his eyes. “What a coincidence. I know how to.”
Yuan Yi was not to be outdone. “I know how to do it too!”
Shi Man turned to look at Su Tang and asked with a smile, “Do you want to be a judge for once?”
Su Tang pointed at herself in shock. “Me? I can’t do it!”
“It’s fine, it’s you!” Shi Man made the final decision and said to the two of them, “I’ll give whoever cooks the best a chance to make a wish. Of course, it can’t be an excessive wish.”
Yi Zheng’s eyes lit up. He nodded with a smile. “No problem. 1 can do it now.”
Yuan Yi was a little hesitant, but there was no room for him to retreat at this moment. He could only brace himself for a fight. “1 can do it too!”
The two of them glared at each other and saw disdain in each other’s eyes. Then, they walked toward the two kitchens on the first floor.
After successfully sending these two men away, Shi Man finally heaved a sigh of relief. She leaned comfortably on the sofa and picked up Su Tang’s blueprint to take a closer look.
Su Tang lay beside her curiously and asked, “Comparing these two, who do you like more?”
Shi Man glanced at her and asked with interest, “If it were you, who would you choose?”
Su Tang thought about it seriously for a while before saying hesitantly, “I’m afraid 1 won’t choose anyone. 1 want to choose the one I like.”
When she said this, her eyes were sparkling, as if they were filled with fine light. She stared at Shi Man without blinking.
Shi Man’s heart skipped a beat. She suddenly asked without rhyme or reason, “If I don’t bring you out of the Yi family, will you like Yi Zheng?”
Su Tang blinked in surprise and shook her head without hesitation. “The difference between Brother Yi and me is too great. He’s not someone 1 can like.”
Shi Man was not happy when she heard this. She put down the design plan solemnly and said seriously, “Why should you belittle yourself? In my opinion, you’re very good. Moreover, you’re a daughter of the Shi family now. There’s no one you’re not worthy of, understand?”
“Yes!” Su Tang nodded in confusion. Feeling that the atmosphere was a little serious, she changed the topic and pointed at the design. “It was newly drawn in the afternoon. Do you like it?”
“For my brother?” Shi Man only took a glance and knew that this style was made for Shi Mu.
At the mention of Shi Mu, she suddenly asked curiously, “Why isn’t my brother here? Shouldn’t he be back with Yuan Yi?”
“He went out first because he had something on. He seemed to be in a hurry,” Su Tang explained calmly. She pursed her lips and said hesitantly, “It seems to be related to a girl in school.”
Shi Man was immediately interested and asked carefully, “What’s her name? Is she from their grade?”
Su Tang shook her head gently and said uncertainly, “1 think she’s from our grade. She should be called Bai Yao.”
Hearing this name, Shi Man frowned. Thinking of the girl in white she had seen at the last banquet, her expression turned slightly cold..
