Chen Jiao quickly waved her hand. “No, I was just distracted. I don’t have any intention of following President Yi.”

Tang Zhe’s expression did not soften because of her explanation. He was sure that he had not seen wrongly just now. The moment President Yi entered the elevator, a longing smile appeared on Chen Jiao’s face.

That was not the expression a special assistant should show to her boss!

Coincidentally, the elevator door opened with a ding. Tang Zhe warned her one last time, “Don’t have any ill intentions towards President Yi. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not being able to tolerate you.”

Ever since Chen Jiao saw Tang Zhe, she had never seen such a stern side of him. She was momentarily stunned.

By the time she realized it, Tang Zhe had already entered the elevator.

Seeing that she was standing still and her eyes were glistening, he could only walk out of the elevator helplessly and grab her wrist again. “Alright, Cousin was too fierce just now. I’ll send you home, okay?”

Chen Jiao’s eyes were filled with tears, but she still pretended to be strong and nodded.

She was always like this, as if she was willing to take on everything herself. She had clearly had that encounter, but she still stayed strong just to stabilize her job.

In this world, it was always much harder for women to survive than men.

It was not that Tang Zhe did not understand, that was why his heart softened for Chen Jiao again and again.

However, if she had feelings for Yi Zheng, he would stop this relationship in time.

When Shi Man returned home at night, she did not expect to see Yi Zheng as soon as she entered.

When he heard the door open, his ears pricked up and he almost lost his grip on the teacup in his hand.

Shi Man glanced at him calmly and walked to the sofa on the other side to sit down. “Mom, I’m back. Where is the item?”

Shen Xian was happy to see her daughter. She smiled and said, “I put it in your room. Aiya, look at what a coincidence today. Yi Zheng happened to be back from work. Our family can have a meal together.”

“Where’s Dad and Fourth Brother?” Shi Man glanced around and nodded at Bai Xue and Su Tang, but she pretended not to see Yi Zheng at all.

Shen Xian hurriedly explained, “Your father and brother are on a business trip. They won’t be back for a few days.”

Shi Man nodded and did not say anything else.

The atmosphere in the living room was suddenly a little awkward. Shen Xian tried to find something to talk about. “Manman, have you eaten?”

“Not yet,” Shi Man replied calmly.

Shen Xian immediately got up and went to the kitchen. “Wait here. I’ll go and see if the chef has prepared your favorite dishes!”

After saying that, she gave Su Tang and Bai Xue a look.

The two of them immediately understood and hurriedly stood up. “Manman, we’ll go to the kitchen and see if there’s anything we can help with!”

“Sit down.” Shi Man’s cold voice suddenly made the two of them stop in their tracks.

Su Tang smiled awkwardly and sat beside Shi Man without hesitation.

Seeing this, Bai Xue sat down. “Manman, why are you looking for us?”

“Can’t I look for you for no reason?” Shi Man suddenly looked up at them.

After not seeing them for so long, these two girls looked thinner. Could it be that they had been bullied in school?

Beside her, Yi Zheng’s face darkened visibly. How could he not tell that Shi Man did not want to be alone with him!

“Yes, of course!” Su Tang saw that Shi Man’s expression was not good and couldn’t care less about Yi Zheng. She hurriedly held her arm and tried to please her. “Manman, to be honest, after you weren’t in school, Xue and 1 missed you very much.”

“Then why were you in a hurry to leave just now?” Shi Man glanced at her with a meaningful smile.

Su Tang smiled apologetically and said, “I was too excited to see you back, right? I just wanted to go to the kitchen to see if there was anything I could help with. I wanted to do something for you.”

Shi Man raised her eyebrows and did not expose her thoughts. Instead, she changed the topic. “When I wasn’t in school, did anyone cause trouble for you? If anyone targets you, tell me. I have a way to help you vent your anger.”

“No! No one really bullied us!” Su Tang saw that she didn’t believe her and hurriedly explained to her, “After you left, Tong Su has been treating us like biological sisters. The principal has also shown concern for the two of us. Who else would dare to find trouble with us!”

That was the truth.

The Tong family had already decided to change sides to support Shi Man. Since they had given up on Chu Yue, they would never lose the Shi family again. Therefore, the weight of Su Tang and Bai Xue could be imagined!

Since that was the case…

“Then why have you lost weight?” Shi Man couldn’t help but ask what was on her mind.

Unexpectedly, the two of them suddenly screamed excitedly when they heard this.

Bai Xue looked at Shi Man with a frown and a deeper smile in her eyes. “Manman, although you haven’t been home recently, Tangtang and I haven’t stopped training for a day! Look, aren’t our muscles much more developed than before!”

As she spoke, she really rolled up her sleeves and raised her arm for Shi Man to see.

Shi Man pursed her lips and smiled as she looked at the weak arm. She nodded. “Indeed, continue to work hard..”
