Shi Man leaned back in the car chair in silence. After a while, she turned her head indifferently.
Su Tang seemed to understand something. She pressed her warm palm pressed against the back of Shi Man’s hand. When she looked at her, she smiled gently and said, “Everyone is doing their best for the same goal. 1 know that you, Brother Yi Zheng, and the chauffeur are all trying to protect the Shi family.”
Shi Man was slightly stunned, and her heart skipped a beat, as if some indescribable emotion was about to come out. However, before she could carefully understand the strange feeling in her heart, the car was suddenly hit from behind.
The chauffeur hurriedly gripped the steering wheel tightly. The car drew a dangerous arc on the street as it drifted and stopped an inch away from the roadside.
Shi Man’s hot face instantly froze.
She raised her hand to open the car door to chase these endless things away, but Su Tang grabbed her wrist firmly.
“You can’t go. If Brother Yi Zheng is here, he definitely won’t agree to let you get out of the car!”
Shi Man calmly pushed her hand away, her eyes flashing coldly. “If 1 don’t go down, they will never be at ease.”
Su Tang was stunned under her firm gaze. It took her a long time to make up her mind. Her brows were filled with calmness. “Then I’ll go with you.”
The Shi family’s car was surrounded by Hellgate again. This time, the other party had clearly learned their lesson and sent twice as many people to make it difficult for them to escape.
Shi Man held Su Tang’s hand tightly and sneered at the men who had gotten out of the car. “Where did this blind thing come from? Is the Shi family someone you can afford to offend?”
The man clearly knew that his boss had been beaten up. He stared at the two girls warily and said fiercely, “Don’t you know us? Didn’t you come to our place as a guest last time?”
Shi Man sneered, her face filled with disdain. “Do you think you’re worthy of me being a guest? As someone else’s dog, you’ll never be able to show yourself!”
The man was anxious from her scolding. He couldn’t care less that she might really be skilled. He picked up the big knife in his hand and rushed forward. However, before he could approach, a bullet with a cold glint suddenly cut through the air and accurately shot into his arm.
The long knife fell to the ground. The man hugged his arm in pain and wailed, his expression becoming even more ferocious. “Attack! I want them alive!”
Shi Man pulled Su Tang up and ran. Another group of people rushed into the crowd and protected the two of them.
From the beginning to the end, Shi Man did not reveal any of her skills. She was surrounded like an ordinary young lady until she got into another car that had been prepared by the roadside.
After such a soul-stirring battle, Su Tang’s face was already pale from fright. If Shi Man had not pulled her to her side quickly just now, she would have been slashed in the shoulder by the long saber in someone’s hand.
Shi Man took a tissue to wipe her sweat. “Are you afraid? Weren’t you acting righteous just now?”
Su Tang lowered her head shyly. She wiped her sweat and held the tissue tightly in her palm. “Manman, why don’t you teach me some moves? I won’t be a burden to you after I learn it.”
Shi Man chuckled in disbelief and reached out to flick her forehead. “Look at how weak you are. How can you practice? Besides, this isn’t something you like to do, right? You just have to focus on what you like, which is design.”
Su Tang shook her head gently, and an unshakable determination flashed across her clear eyes. “No, I like it. I’m willing to do anything that can help you.”
She was still afraid that Shi Man would be unwilling, so she hurriedly propped up her arm to show off her completely negligible muscles. “Actually, I’m very capable. I used to help Aunt do housework at home. I’m actually very strong.”
Shi Man treated this as a spur of the moment and casually custom-made a training plan for her. She did not expect her to really persist.
When they returned to the Shi family, the commotion on the way was not small. The family quickly found out. If not for Yi Zheng stopping them, they would have rushed out to protect Shi Man.
The reason why Yi Zheng was waiting for her here was to be the last line of defense and not let anyone take the opportunity to attack the other members of the Shi family.
Seeing that she had returned safely, Yi Zheng’s worried heart finally relaxed. He hugged her tightly, as if he wished he could clamp her into his bones and blood from now on and never separate from her again.
Shi Man’s face quickly turned red under his family’s gaze. She hurriedly pushed him away. When she saw his red eyes, she suddenly swallowed her words and said dryly, “I’m back.”
Shen Xian smiled gently. Seeing that Yi Zheng was unwilling to let go of Shi Man, she took the initiative to walk to Su Tang’s side and hold her arm. “Good child, you must be frightened too. I’ll get the butler to cook two bowls of hot ginger soup for you.”
Butler Qi immediately understood and rushed into the kitchen with unconcealed joy. Soon, he brought over two steaming bowls of soup and said with a smile, “CEO Shi has already received the news. He called back just now and said that he would return home as soon as possible..”
