131 Going Together

Shi Mu also saw his sister talking to another guy just now and immediately pouted unhappily. As soon as the school anniversary speech ended, he couldn’t help but run to his sister’s side and grab her hand as if declaring his sovereignty. “Manman, who was the person who spoke to you just now? Did he invite you to have lunch with him? Did Yi Zheng send him?”

Shi Man frowned at her excited brother and shook her head. “No, he’s not treating me to lunch.”

Shi Mu heaved a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to say something, he heard Shi Man continue, “He invited me to Nightless City in the afternoon to play.”

Shi Mu’s heart was in his throat. He immediately looked for the kid with a furious expression.

However, Chen Wei was scheming. He had already slipped away when Shi Mu came over.

Shi Mu couldn’t find him and could only say angrily, “How dare he invite my sister to such a place? I’ll skin him alive the next time I see him!”

With that, he looked at Shi Man expectantly and blinked. “You didn’t agree, right?”

“I agreed.” Shi Man nodded and grabbed Su Tang’s arm behind her. “She’s coming with me.”

“No!” Shi Mu objected decisively. “You can’t go! Unless you agree to bring me along!”

Shi Man knew that he was worried about her and nodded without hesitation. “Okay.”

Shi Mu did not expect her to agree so easily. He immediately smiled in surprise. “Sister is so obedient. Don’t worry, Brother will protect you well!”

When he saw that bastard, he would definitely beat him up!

Shi Man did not know what he was thinking, but from the viciousness that flashed across his eyes, she could roughly guess what he was planning. She had no intention of stopping him.

She pulled Su Tang away with her. Shi Mu naturally followed beside her. Before they could walk out of the hall, Tang Zhe stopped them and smiled at Shi Man. “Miss Shi, please wait. My master has something to tell you.”

“Can’t you see that I’m busy?” Shi Man wanted to walk around him impatiently, but Tang Zhe took a step in the direction she left fearlessly and still stood firmly in front of her.

“Miss Shi, please don’t make things difficult for me. I’m just following Master’s instructions. If you’re unhappy, you can wait for Master to come and tell him personally.”

“Is this Yi Zheng done? How can he be so thick-skinned!” Shi Mu couldn’t help but curse softly.

Shi Man looked expressionlessly at Yi Zheng, who was patronizing the principal on the rostrum. The other party seemed to have acutely sensed her gaze, and his cold eyes were tainted with a smile the moment they met.

Unfortunately, Shi Man was not in the mood to investigate why he wanted to smile. She calmly turned her gaze back to Tang Zhe and clenched her fists by her side. “No one has dared to stop me yet. Are you going to move aside or should I throw you out?”

Tang Zhe, who had long seen Shi Man’s skills, smiled bitterly in his heart. He did not want to have a conflict with Shi Man at all, but if he did not complete the mission, he was afraid that he would not have a good time. He could only shake his head helplessly and say, “I don’t want to choose either. Miss Shi, please let me off.”

Shi Man couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows. Just as she was about to make a move, she saw the man walking down from the rostrum from the corner of her eye. She turned slightly and looked at him coldly. “What do you mean by getting someone to stop me?”

Shi Mu had been holding back because the principal was still around. Now that Yi Zheng had walked down the stage and the principal had already walked out of the hall surrounded by everyone, he immediately had no scruples and questioned loudly, “Can you not stick to my sister like a piece of plaster? My sister doesn’t like you anymore. Can’t you understand? She doesn’t want to see you again.”

Shi Mu’s voice was not soft, but fortunately, the students had already left the school in a hurry because of the afternoon break. At this moment, there was no one else in the hall except them.

Yi Zheng’s expression did not change, completely ignoring Shi Mu. He slowly walked up to Shi Man and stood still. He stared at her coldly and said, “My mother just called and said that she wants to invite you back to the Yi family for lunch. I wonder if Manman is willing?”

“Auntie Lu?” Shi Mu glared at Yi Zheng distrustfully. He leaned towards Shi Man and whispered, “This mother and son are clearly in cahoots, but Auntie Lu is Mom’s best friend. We can’t reject her too harshly.”

Shi Man glanced at him indifferently and said decisively, “No.”

Shi Mu widened his eyes in shock. He did not expect his sister to become so bold and direct now. He could not help but praise her in his heart.

Yi Zheng seemed to have expected her to say this, but he still had a gentle smile on his face. “Alright, I’ll tell my mother that you’re busy in the afternoon. Please feel free.”

With that, he turned around and left with Tang Zhe, leaving Shi Mu stunned on the spot.

Had Yi Zheng become so easy to deal with?
