“Well, let’s try it if you don’t believe me.”
Shi Man raised her eyebrows slightly and walked back to the sofa to lie down. She continued to stare at the phone screen.
Shi Man now had her own company and had a lot of documents to deal with every day. In order to go to school, she could not work in the company all the time, so she could only ask Meng Hui to send important documents to her phone.
She had been in the hospital for so long and was busy with all kinds of documents.
The city reconstruction project could not be ignored. Shi Man had to keep an eye on it despite the distraction from Yi Ming.
Not long after, Yi Long brought Lu Xiang and Yi Zheng to the hospital. They were each holding a thermos container, which was made according to Yi Ming’s request.
Yi Ming’s expression was tense. He did not give them any respect.
Yi Zheng put down the thermos and walked to Shi Man’s side. He patted her shoulder comfortingly. “Are you okay?”
Shi Man shrugged indifferently.
Yi Ming immediately glared in their direction. “What can happen to her?! Ever since she came, I’ve never felt comfortable!”
Lu Xiang hurriedly walked over to calm the old man down and coaxed him in a gentle voice, “Uncle, eat something first. We’ve already informed Yi Che. He’ll come here to accompany you in a while.”
Yi Ming took a deep breath and said coldly, “Don’t think that this can change my mind. 1 have time to play with this brat.”
Yi Long and Lu Xiang looked at each other.
Looking at the broken porcelain pieces and water stains on the ground, Lu Xiang quickly contacted the nurse to come in and clean up. She secretly gave Yi Zheng a look.
Yi Zheng nodded knowingly. Just as he was about to send Shi Man home first, she was unwilling to leave. She put away her cell phone and lost her casual attitude. Instead, she became respectful.
“1’11 stay here and have dinner with Eldest Grandpa before leaving. I have to finish what 1 started.”
This shocked even Yi Zheng.
Before coming, he had heard that Yi Ming was making things difficult for Shi Man. He was still very worried and regretted not rejecting Yi Ming’s suggestion forcefully.
Unexpectedly, Shi Man took the initiative to stay.
Yi Ming snorted. He was the person present who knew Shi Man’s schemes the best.
This little girl did not stay to accompany him. She had clearly been busy the entire night and had not eaten. She was waiting to freeload here!
Thinking of this, Yi Ming started to get angry again. He slapped the bedside table in frustration. “Where’s the food 1 asked you to bring? Can 1 eat?!”
“Yes, of course.” Yi Long was obviously relieved. He quickly opened the thermos and placed it in front of him.
Shi Man could smell the fresh fragrance of black chicken soup from afar. Her gluttony was immediately aroused, and her eyes lit up.
She solicitously walked over and personally scooped a bowl of soup for Yi Ming. Then, she wanted to scoop another bowl for herself.
Yi Ming’s cold gaze drifted to her. He suddenly thought of something and his lips curled into a sly smile. He coughed violently at the black chicken soup. His saliva splashed into the soup and contaminated the entire thermos.
Shi Man raised her eyebrows slightly. Her hand that was scooping the soup paused and she looked at the old man with dark eyes.
After being angered by her, Yi Ming finally got back at her. He shook his head proudly and drank the bowl of clean soup in front of her.
Yi Long watched this scene awkwardly from the side and couldn’t help but feel a little amused. He patted Shi Man’s shoulder helplessly. “Uncle Yi will still bring it for you next time, okay?”
Shi Man did not say anything and kept staring at the old man drinking the soup.
Yi Ming could feel her staring at him, and his face became even more smug. His posture of drinking the soup subconsciously became elegant.
Shi Man sneered and sized him up. Suddenly, she said with a serious expression, “Although Eldest Grandpa looks much better today than last night, his breathing is still a little difficult. We should get a doctor to do a full checkup.”
Yi Ming stopped drinking the soup and looked up at her in confusion.
Yi Long, on the other hand, was interested in this matter. He frowned and stared at Yi Long’s expression. He nodded and said, “Manman is right. It won’t hurt to have another layer of insurance. I’ll contact the doctor now.”
“No need. Sit down and have a good dinner. I’ll go.” Shi Man acted obedient and sensible.
Yi Ming couldn’t help but snort coldly. He completely treated Shi Man’s words as flattery for Yi Long and his wife, and his expression became even more disdainful.
The older, the wiser.
Since this little girl knew that she had to please Yi Long and Lu Xiang, he had grasped her weakness. As long as he mentioned Yi Long from time to time, he did not believe that this little girl could continue to be lawless.
Shi Man knew what he was thinking with just a glance. The smile in her eyes deepened. She rejected Yi Zheng’s request to accompany her and left the ward to look for the doctor.
Yi Ming ate dinner in a good mood. He actually felt that this meal was even more delicious than the delicacies he had eaten in the past.
However, he was destined to have a rough meal. As soon as he took a bite of fish, Shi Man led the doctor in, followed by two nurses holding medicine bottles..
