Shi Man patted her head gently and comforted her. “Alright, alright. I’ll disinfect and apply medicine for you. 1 won’t hurt you. Believe me, okay?”
Su Tang looked up from her arms and wiped the tears off her face. She hummed heavily and revealed her chest shyly.
Seeing the wound again, Shi Man’s heart ached again.
If Shi Zhong wanted to teach Shi Mu a lesson, he would definitely not hold back. This hit left a glaring wound on Su Tang’s body. Blood kept seeping out from under her fair skin, and it was shockingly red and swollen.
She frowned and cleaned her wound bit by bit. Even she did not notice that her hand was trembling slightly.
Su Tang turned her head away uncomfortably. She wanted to grit her teeth and endure the pain, but when Shi Man’s cold hand landed on her body, it actually brought a coldness that seemed to be able to anesthetize the pain.
Her movements were light and fast. After treating the wound in a few moves and bandaging it with gauze, she wanted to help her put on her clothes.
This time, Su Tang refused to let her help again. She gripped her clothes tightly. “I, I can do it myself.”
“Your hand is inconvenient. Be careful not to aggravate your wound.” Shi Man ignored her protest and pulled the clothes out of her hand. She helped her put them on gently before heaving a sigh of relief. “Wait here for a moment. 1’11 get someone to prepare dinner for you.”
“Okay.” Su Tang’s voice was extremely soft, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly as if she had something to say.
Shi Man knew what she was thinking from her expression. She sighed and advised, “You can’t be blamed for this. My father was irritable and impulsive. Your only mistake was to rush up and block this, understand?”
Su Tang bit her lip, her shoulders trembling slightly. Her voice was hoarse and choked. “1,1 should have told the truth. That way, Fourth Brother might not have been beaten.”
“Be good. It’s really not your fault. Don’t let one’s imagination run wild.” Shi Man patted her head gently. “Alright, the matter has been made clear. Don’t blame yourself. Otherwise, if anything happens again, I won’t dare to bring you along.”
Hearing her say this, Su Tang suddenly raised her hand to wipe her tears and said firmly, “No, I’ve long treated all of you as my family. I want to help when something happens.”
“Okay, okay, okay.” Shi Man was almost convinced by the kindness of the female protagonist in this book. She smiled helplessly and said, “Then heal your injuries first. I’ll take you with me in the future, okay?”
“Okay!” Su Tang smiled sweetly.
Shi Man’s mood improved.
She instructed Su Tang to lie down and not move. She went downstairs to find Butler Qi and asked him to make some light food for Su Tang.
Yi Zheng stood up to pick her up with a worried expression. “You have to eat some yourself.”
“I know.” She was just distracted and her mind was filled with Su Tang’s wound just now. She could not calm down.
Yi Zheng looked at the frustrated expression on her face and pursed his lips. “Manman, sometimes I’m really jealous of Su Tang. If you continue like this, I’ll be jealous.”
Shi Man rolled her eyes at him in amusement. “Didn’t I take care of you when you were sick?”
At the thought of taking care of him, Shi Man suddenly thought of the poison she had poisoned him with and her expression darkened.
Yi Zheng quietly sized up her expression. His throat suddenly tightened as he said in a hoarse voice, “The next time the heat poison acts up, I want you to take good care of me.”
Shi Man nodded softly. “Let’s eat.”
Although Shi Zhong put on airs in front of his children, he was completely different in front of Shen Xian.
He did whatever Shen Xian said. After the meal, accompanied by Shi Man and the others, he personally handed the best medicine to Su Tang and lowered his face to apologize. Only then was Shen Xian willing to let him go.
This farce finally ended, but Yi Zheng, who had been disturbed from his date again, looked terrible. He pulled Shi Man away when she was unprepared and pressed her against the wall. He kissed her wantonly for a while before reluctantly letting go.
He lowered his voice to her ear and panted heavily. “I’ll let you go this time. Don’t forget that you owe me another date.”
Shi Man was already used to him kissing her from time to time. Anyway, the two of them were now boyfriend and girlfriend. She was willing to kiss and hug him.
“Alright, 1’11 definitely compensate you next time.” Shi Man agreed and barely managed to fool him.
The next day, as soon as Man arrived at the company, a letter was sent in by Meng Hui. The name of the signature amused her.
After work in the evening, she looked at the agreed time in the letter and decided to attend the appointment personally.
Meng Hui advised worriedly, “Why don’t you call President Yi? Or I’ll accompany you.”
Shi Man put on her clothes indifferently. “It’s nothing. I’m just curious to see what she can do.”
Song Zhi sat in the bar booth and waited nervously, worried that Shi Man would not come at all.
Chen Zong slowly swirled his wine glass and took out the pills he had prepared in his pocket. He smiled evilly and said, “You don’t have to be afraid.. As long as she’s willing to come, what happens next will have nothing to do with you!”
