“Su Tang?” Shi Yu saw who it was and his expression suddenly darkened.
Shi Mu quickly walked over and explained on Shi Man’s behalf. Only then did the few of them heave a sigh of relief. They sat around Shi Man and asked about her well-being.
Shi Ke sized Shi Man up and suddenly frowned. He picked up her hand and stared at the wound on her palm. He asked with heartache, “How did this happen?”
“Aiya, Manman, why didn’t you say that you were injured?” Shen Xian immediately called a servant to treat Shi Man’s wound.
Shi Mu punched the sofa in self-reproach. Just now, he had been too enthralled watching his sister’s exciting performance. He had actually carelessly forgotten that his sister was injured. What an incompetent brother he was.
Shi Yu picked up his phone and looked at the recording. When he saw the last scene, he couldn’t help but sigh. “Silly sister, it’s too dangerous for you to do this. You’re not allowed to do this in the future.”
“Sister, you’re really too cool!” Shi He hugged Shi Man’s shoulder and praised her from the bottom of his heart. “If this action was in a movie, I can guarantee that you would definitely be praised as a goddess! Sister, why don’t you enter the entertainment industry with me to act!”
“What’s so good about the entertainment industry? Sister, why don’t you take over the position of the president of my Student Union first?” Shi Mu pushed Shi He away and promoted himself actively.
Seeing the two of them promote themselves to Shi Man the way vendors sold cabbages, Su Tang looked at Shi Man enviously and was really happy for her.
In her heart, Shi Man deserved the best.
“Stop looking at me like that. I’ll get very annoyed.” Shi Man pretended to be troubled and held her forehead. Although her brothers doted on her, they were too noisy. When the four of them spoke together, there was simply no peace when they were jealous of one another.
Su Tang couldn’t help but laugh and say sincerely, “I finally know why Manman is so outstanding. Your family is really good.”
Su Tang had lost her biological parents at a young age. She had been raised by her uncle’s family. Her aunt was kind and treated her very well, but her life was very tight. The family often had to work tirelessly every day to make a living.
In order to be able to afford her favorite beef and seafood during the new year, her uncle would even work three jobs a day and only sleep three to four hours a day. He supported a large family with his meager salary.
Her heart ached for her uncle and aunt’s hard work. She had never dared to hope that she could go to university one day, but she did not expect such an opportunity to have been given to her with the lives of all her loved ones in exchange.
“What are you thinking about?” Shi Man pushed her gently.
Su Tang came back to her senses and realized that the Shi family was already sitting around the dining table happily and joking. Only Shi Man looked down at her with a smile and her outstretched hand by her side.
Unexpectedly, she took the hand and stood up with a smile. “Nothing. I’m sorry. I was distracted.”
“You like to apologize.” Shi Man turned around and stared at her seriously. “Have you let me down in so many areas?”
“Don’t talk nonsense.” Su Tang blushed and smiled. She pursed her lips and stammered, “Then I won’t say it again. You also don’t have to thank me for the things I do.”
“That’s for the best. It’s simple and convenient to communicate.” Shi Man raised her eyebrows and pulled her to the table to sit down. Afraid that she would be embarrassed to eat, she put on gloves and personally took the fattest piece of crab meat and placed it on her plate. “Try it. I think it’s quite fresh.”
Su Tang put on her gloves, picked up the crab meat, and ate it in small bites. Her fair face was dyed pink by the warm atmosphere. “It’s indeed delicious. I’ve never eaten such a big crab.”
“Then you can come often in the future.” Shi Mu peeled the crab meat for the two of them enthusiastically.
To him, as long as his sister was happy, he was willing to accommodate what she loved and treat her best friend generously.
Su Tang smiled and thanked him softly.
Not to be outdone, Shi He also fought to peel crab meat for Shi Man. Seeing the two of them compete childishly, the others shook their heads helplessly and let these two clowns do whatever they wanted.
After the meal, the family was sitting on the sofa chatting to digest their food when Butler Qi suddenly walked in with a strange expression and interrupted the relaxed and warm atmosphere. “Master, Madam, Yi Zheng is here. The car is already parked outside. Should we let him in?”
“What is he doing here!” Shi Mu felt angry when he heard his name. He stood up impulsively and pointed in the direction of the door. “Close the door and let him go home. I’m annoyed when I see him.”
“Shi Mu, shut up.” Shi Zhong berated his son coldly. He looked up at Butler Qi and said, “Invite him in.”
“Dad!”
Shi Mu was dissatisfied and wanted to accuse Yi Zheng of being indifferent to Shi Man on the rostrum, but Shi Yu raised his hand to stop him. “He’s from the Yi family. It’s not good to not let him in. Besides…”
He raised his chin slightly and pointed at the girl beside Shi Man. “I’m afraid he’s here to bring her back.”
