Chapter 36

Small Talk

“Help? What do you mean?” Shi He was stunned.

Didn’t Shi Man go out for some fresh air just now? What happened?

From what Yi Zheng said, he had already taken over Nightless City. It seemed that he had to come here as little as possible in the future.

Yi Zheng didn’t look at Shi He. He kept staring at Shi Man and the men beside her. “It seems that Third Young Master Shi still doesn’t know. Miss Shi Man just saved a waitress who was harassed by a customer in our Nightless City. Miss Shi’s valiant and heroic posture is really admirable.”

When Shi He heard Yi Zheng say this, he immediately pulled Shi Man up and down to check. After confirming that Shi Man was not injured, he was relieved. “Xiao Man, if you want to help when you encounter such a situation, just get me or Ning Hui to do it. Don’t go alone. Brother will be worried.”

Ning Hui adjusted his glasses. Please, he was a scholar. If they really fought, he couldn’t imagine the outcome.

Shi Man didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when she saw Shi He like this. “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

It was not her style to call for help over such a small scene. Besides, SVIP80 had a room full of mercenaries. She would not need to resort to calling Shi He and the others over.

The artists present were shocked again when they saw Shi He’s nervous and coaxing manner.

Originally, they were already a little embarrassed that Yi Zheng had come with such a big lineup. No matter what, Yi Zheng had yet to cancel the engagement with Shi Man. It was a little inappropriate for them to “interact” with Shi Man in front of her fiancé.

Then, they saw Shi He, a top actor, whispering in front of Shi Man… It really made them feel like they were sitting on pins and needles.

“Uh, why don’t we leave first? Miss Manman and Mr. Yi, you guys chat…” The celebrities looked at Yi Zheng and spoke under immense pressure.

If they didn’t leave now, they felt that their future career would be over.

“Okay, remember to leave from the underground garage.” Ning Hui brought them out.

It was indeed not appropriate for outsiders like them to stay here.

“Is there anything else, Mr. Yi?” Shi Man lost interest when everyone left.

Yi Zheng didn’t stand on ceremony. He walked to the sofa beside Shi Man and sat down. “It’s been a while. I want to chat with Miss Shi.”

Shi Man raised her eyebrows and looked at Yi Zheng, not knowing what he meant.

Shi He was also very frustrated. He did not want Yi Zheng to appear in front of Manman. “If there’s nothing else, we’ll leave. Let’s exchange pleasantries when we have the chance to do so in the future.”

The Shi family and the Yi family were old friends. Even if they didn’t like Yi Zheng because of Manman, they would still go to the Yi family’s ancestral mansion during the holidays.

Seeing Shi He’s cold attitude, Yi Zheng naturally wouldn’t stay here and ask for trouble. He ordered the manager to open the wine and pour it for everyone.

“Then I’ll express my gratitude and not disturb you anymore.” With that, Yi Zheng drank a glass.

Shi He was too embarrassed to make things too awkward and drank the wine.

Shi Man wanted to try this wine too. The light shone through the wine glass and reflected a beautiful light. She studied it for a while and drank it with interest.

As expected of a precious wine, the taste was mellow with a trace of aftertaste. It was bitter but not astringent, stimulating the taste buds and throat for a long time.

Yi Zheng stared at Shi Man’s hand holding the wine glass as if he was thinking about something.

Since he was done being polite and was not welcome there, Yi Zheng did not linger and politely greeted them before leaving the private room.

The manager followed behind Yi Zheng, not daring to breathe.

The more approachable the boss was in the private room, the more oppressive his aura was when he went out.

It turned out that the boss had restrained his aura in front of Miss Shi Man. She was indeed his fiancée!

While the manager looked like he understood, Tang Zhe smiled knowingly.

Yi Zheng did not restrain himself because that person was Shi Man. As long as it was beneficial to business, he would not act too high and mighty. Moreover, the Yi family and the Shi family were considered relatives.
