“There’s no need, Auntie.” The moment Mother Bai leaned over, Shi Mu’s impetuous heart was strangely soothed.

He hurriedly placed the roasted steak in his hand on the plate and handed it to Mrs. Bai. “Auntie, try this. The steak skewers are also very delicious.”

Mrs. Bai hurriedly pushed his hand back and said, “Auntie is full, but you haven’t eaten a bite. It’s time to eat some.”

However, Shi Mu refused no matter what and placed the skewer in Mrs. Bai’s hand. “Auntie, eat. I’ll eat later.”

Just as he finished speaking, he looked up and realized that the few people eating in front had already started to pack up and go home.

Shi Mu was speechless.

Why did even Manman bully him with them this time?

How ridiculous!

Shi Mu was about to shout to express his dissatisfaction when Yuan Yi walked over first. He patted his shoulder with a smile and said, “There are too many mosquitoes by the sea. We’re eating elsewhere. Take your time roasting them.”

Shi Mu was furious. He widened his eyes in disbelief as he watched the few of them get into the car together, especially when Bai Xue quickly moved things back and forth.

Shi Mu snorted and shrugged his hand away. He deliberately pretended not to care and said, “If you want to get lost, get lost. Don’t disturb me here. I’m still hungry.”

“Alright.” Yuan Yi smiled and brought Mrs. Bai back to help move the things.

Soon, the original picnic stall was cleaned up, not even leaving any trash behind.

Before Mrs. Bai got into the car, she was still a little worried about Shi Mu being alone. The barbecue stove was so big and there was so much ash. No matter how she looked at it, Fourth Young Master could not clean it up alone.

However, Shi Man told her not to worry. She pulled her into the car and drove away.

Shi Mu suddenly felt aggrieved. His nose felt sore as he stared down at the meat skewer in his hand. Even though the fragrance was assailing his nose, he felt that it was meaningless.

Just as he was about to leave, a gentle female voice suddenly sounded beside his ear. “Aren’t you going to roast it? I’m not full yet.”

Shi Mu suddenly froze and turned around in disbelief. He saw Bai Xue standing beside him shyly with her arms behind her back. From his angle, he could only see the top of her cute head.

Shi Mu felt an inexplicable urge to cry, but on second thought, he turned his face away uncomfortably and said in a muffled voice, “Didn’t you eat what I roasted? Didn’t Yuan Yi roast the best barbecue you’ve ever eaten? Why didn’t you go with him?”

Bai Xue sighed and took the skewer from him helplessly. She turned the beef around to continue roasting it.

Shi Mu’s gaze suddenly shot over.

Bai Xue had no choice but to explain, “I was just being polite. After all, he’s your friend.”

Shi Mu pursed his lips in dissatisfaction. “Then why don’t you praise me?”

Bai Xue patiently said softly, “I treat you as family, so I’m not so polite.”

Shi Mu’s eyes widened. It took him a while to realize that she had only said “family”. There was no other special meaning. However, his originally depressed mood improved a lot.

He was smug for a moment, and his tail curled up into the sky again. He taught her proudly, “Even family should be praised. For example, I often praise Manman!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Mu wished he could bite off his tongue.

How could Shi Man and Bai Xue be the same?

However, Bai Xue clearly did not think too much about it. She nodded solemnly to acknowledge his words. “I understand, Fourth Brother. Let’s encourage each other in the future.”

Shi Mu wanted to cry in his heart again, but before he could cry, he suddenly saw Bai Xue’s sparkling eyes looking at him gently.

This was a gaze that belonged to him alone.

Shi Mu was shocked by his thought and quickly looked away in a panic. Shi Man’s words suddenly popped up in his mind. “It’s very simple. When a man likes a woman, he will be especially possessive of her.”

Then, was his possessiveness towards Bai Xue different from others?

The sound of the waves washing ashore was especially loud, but Shi Mu turned a deaf ear. The only thing he could hear now was the sound of his heart beating.

“What’s wrong?” Bai Xue looked at his sudden daze worriedly and couldn’t help but say, “I specially reserved a chair just now. If you’re tired, take a rest. This side will be fine soon.”

“No.”

Shi Mu only wanted to take the cold skewer from her hand. Unexpectedly, he was flustered and his fingers could not be ordered around. His large hand grabbed her delicate hand.

“I’m sorry!” Shi Mu quickly let go and apologized, afraid that she would be angry at him for offending her.

Bai Xue was only stunned for a moment at first, but she quickly regained her senses with red ears. She stared at the sizzling beef in her hand and shook her head with a smile. “It’s okay. I said that I treat you as family. Fourth Brother, you don’t have to apologize to me.”

Why was it Fourth Brother again?

Shi Mu was vexed at the side. However, he had figured out his feelings this time.. He would take his time!
