Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Shi Man left the school building and went straight to the parking lot.
Shi Mu knew that she had finished the exam, so he had been waiting here. However, with fewer students in the school, he only saw Su Tang. Shi Man did not come out.
According to Su Tang, Shi Man had handed in her paper and left in advance, but she had promised to go home with him and had never gone back on her word, so she should not have left school in advance.
Worried that something had happened to his sister, he hurriedly contacted her form teacher, Geng Hui.
Unexpectedly, after the other party picked up the call, he complained to him repeatedly.
He patiently listened to the ins and outs and immediately hung up the phone angrily. He cursed Yi Zheng a thousand times in his heart.
Just as he was about to roll up her sleeves and go in to settle scores with Yi Zheng, she saw Shi Man walking over hurriedly.
Shi Mu hurriedly ran over and pulled Shi Man to size her up. His anger soared. “That damn Yi Zheng actually dared to attack you. I’ll skin him alive!”
“Don’t go.” Shi Man grabbed his arm and looked at Su Tang evasively, indicating for her to help her stop Shi Mu.
Now, she didn’t have any strength in her body. She just wanted to go home and rest well. She didn’t have the energy to deal with anything else for the time being.
Su Tang and Shi Man had been together for so long that she had long mastered the ability to immediately understand what she meant with just a look. She quickly ran over and pulled Shi Mu back. “Fourth Brother, let’s go home first. When we get home, we’ll listen to Manman talk about what happened just now.”
“What else do you need to hear? Mr. Geng told me that Yi Zheng attacked Manman in the office and even pushed down the water dispenser. How can my sister suffer such grievances!” The more Shi Mu thought about it, the more his heart ached. Even his eyes turned red from anxiety.
This was their darling younger sister with whom they had grown up. She had actually been bullied by an outsider. If he did not avenge her, he would not have the face to live in the future!
When Shi Man heard this, she realized that they had misunderstood. She immediately shook her head helplessly and said, “He didn’t hit me. Mr. Geng must have thought wrongly.”
“How is that possible? Then what’s with the water dispenser?” Shi Mu widened his eyes in disbelief and heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s okay, Sister. You don’t have to be afraid of him. I’ll help you beat him up! Can he kill our entire family?!” He was really capable!
Shi Man’s thoughts were in a mess, but she still patiently advised, “I’m telling the truth. He really didn’t hit me. I was the one who pushed the water dispenser down!”
“Manman, you don’t have to cover for him. I have to avenge you today!” Shi Mu rolled up his sleeves and saw Yi Zheng following behind. He was instantly furious. However, when he got closer, he realized that half of Yi Zheng’s exposed arm was covered in teeth marks. He was immediately stunned.
Yi Zheng looked at him strangely as Shi Man suddenly blocked his way. He frowned at Shi Man and said, “You abandoned me just like that? Are you leaving me behind after making me like this?”
Shi Mu looked at his expressionless sister and at Yi Zheng’s arm injuries in surprise. A ridiculous thought suddenly arose in his mind. He coughed dryly and said without confidence, “Sister, did you do all this to him?”
Shi Man’s eyes flickered as she nodded. “Yes.”
Shi Mu was speechless. He turned to glare at Yi Zheng and said awkwardly, “Did you hit my sister?”
“How would I dare?” Yi Zheng rolled his eyes at him in disdain. Then, he strode around him and stood in front of Shi Man. He reached out and grabbed her chubby cheek. “Since you bit me a few times, we’re even. Don’t be angry, understand?”
“Who’s even with you? You even…” He even kissed her again!
As Su Tang and Shi Mu were still present, Shi Man swallowed her last words. However, her round eyes were still glaring at him unhappily as she pried his hand away.
Yi Zheng leaned over and continued to stick to her side in amusement. He couldn’t help but lick his lips to savor the taste. “I’ll take you out for dinner tonight?”
“No.” Shi Man opened the car door and was about to get into the car.
Yi Zheng reached out to grab her, a sly glint flashing across his eyes. “It’s a loss if you don’t go, huh?”
He licked his lips gently, implying something.
Shi Man thought of the scene of him pressing her on the desk just now and was furious again. She grabbed his tie and said, “You can ask me out for a meal, but I have the final say on what to eat and where to eat!”
“No problem,” Yi Zheng agreed generously. He held her hand naturally and smiled at Shi Mu. “I’m sorry, I’ll borrow your sister first. I’ll personally send her back to the Shi family later.”
“Hey, wait!” Shi Mu wanted to stop them and clarify the matter.
However, Su Tang clearly knew the situation better than him. She grabbed his arm and said, “Forget it, Fourth Brother. If Manman was really bullied, she definitely wouldn’t have the same reaction as before..”
