What surprised everyone was Shi Man’s appearance today.

There were rumors outside that Shi Man had endless methods to woo Yi Zheng. Seeing her meticulous style today, everyone immediately felt that the rumors were true.

However, in the next second, Lu Xiang’s reaction shocked everyone.

She looked at Shi Man, who was holding her son’s hand intimately. The more she looked at her, the more she liked her. She held her hand and warmly let her sit on the other side of her. She smiled kindly and said, “I’m really happy that you came to celebrate my birthday. By the way, let me introduce you to everyone. This is our Yi family’s future daughter-in-law.”

Shi Man glared at Yi Zheng unintentionally as she endured the looks of the people sizing her up. At this point, Lu Xiang was flaunting Shi Man at will in front of others.

Yi Zheng found it funny now that she had to endure it. Seeing that her smile was about to disappear, he quickly pulled her to his side. “Mom, sit with Aunt Shen first. I’ll bring Manman around.”

“Alright, alright. The two of you have fun!” Lu Xiang was naturally willing for the two of them to have more time and space to communicate.

Shen Xian looked thoughtfully at Shi Man, who had been taken away obediently. She vaguely suspected that her daughter had really changed her mind.

The two of them walked all the way to the quiet garden before Shi Man shook off Yi Zheng’s hand. She took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands with a cold and disgusted expression.

Yi Zheng’s expression changed. He suddenly rolled up his sleeves. Just as Shi Man thought that he was going to fight her here, she saw him raise his bruised arm expressionlessly in front of her.

“What are you doing?” Shi Man’s suspicious eyes floated up and down. She looked at his expression one moment and then at his arm guiltily.

Yi Zheng still had his arm out in midair. “You pinched me.”

“Oh.” Shi Man took another look before looking away. She turned her head away and said, “So what?”

Who asked him to threaten her to cooperate with him today to show off their love? Did he know how much this had hurt her psychologically?

Also, she pinched him hard because he had been expressionless. She thought that she did not hurt him, but who knew that she had already pinched him into a ball of seaweed?

Yi Zheng moved his arm and stretched it out in front of her again. “Put down my sleeve.”

Hey! Who was he ordering?

Shi Man was about to refuse when she heard Yi Zheng smile maliciously. “Otherwise, I’ll tell Aunt Shen that you lied to your elders. I ll take Su Tang back.”

Shi Man smacked her lips unhappily and glared at him impatiently. “So be it!”

She reached out and reluctantly rolled down his sleeve, then fastened his cuffs under his gaze.

Only then did Yi Zheng retract his hand in satisfaction and pat her head smugly. “Be good. I’ll give you a reward, but there is a condition.”

Shi Man stared at him expressionlessly. Her intuition told her that he was not about to offer anything good, but she still asked, “What reward?”

Yi Zheng curled his lips and smiled. “Half of the management rights of the black market.”

Shi Man raised her eyebrows and smiled with interest. “Then what’s the condition?”

“Marry me,” Yi Zheng said as he looked at her intently.

The smile that Shi Man had just revealed instantly froze on her face. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace, leaving only a sullen face. “In your dreams.”

She didn’t want to talk to this man anymore. She turned around and walked back to the crowded place, but she happened to hear the woman’s ear-piercing and sharp voice behind the flowers.

“Who are you? Why are you so blind? I specially custom-made this dress to see Brother Yi Zheng. How can I face anyone if you dirty it now?!”

“Sorry, sorry.”

The apology was slightly weaker, and her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible, but Shi Man could still tell that the owner of this voice was Su Tang.

She walked around the flowers and stood between the two of them with a cold expression. She looked down at the shattered wine glass on the ground and the red wine that had spilled all over the ground. Then, she turned her gaze to the timid girl at the side. “Are you alright?”

When Su Tang saw her, it was as if she had seen her savior. There were tears in her eyes as she shook her head aggrievedly and pitifully. “I’m fine, Manman. I didn’t mean to bump into her just now.”

“What’s going on?” Shi Man asked with a frown. From the beginning to the end, she did not look at the girl with an ear-piercing voice.

“I…” Su Tang was about to speak when she was interrupted by a dissatisfied shout.

The girl placed her hands on her hips and said righteously, “Hey! Who are you? What has this got to do with you? Why are you meddling in other people’s business!”

As Shi Man looked up at her calmly, her voice was cold and calm. “I’m her friend.”

“Friend?” The girl sized up Shi Man’s outfit, her eyes filled with jealousy. “Who are you to dare to come to the Yi family dressed like this? Are you trying to seduce Brother Yi Zheng? Let me tell you, Brother Yi Zheng won’t look at you!”

“Oh?” Shi Man raised her eyebrows. Her gaze drifted across the flowers before landing on her slowly.. “Then does he like to look at you?”
