In fact, Su Tang knew Shi Man better because she actually saw a trace of shyness in Shi Man’s anger just now.

Seeing that their car had already driven far away, Shi Mu retracted his gaze unwillingly. Just as he was about to get into the car with Su Tang and go home, a sharp female voice stopped him from behind.

Bai Yao had just walked out of the teaching building and was fantasizing about the day the exam results were released. She was feeling smug when she saw another woman tugging at Shi Mu. The smile on her face instantly disappeared.

She walked between the two of them angrily and held Shi Mu’s arm domineeringly as if she was declaring ownership. “Brother Mu, who is this person? Are you going on a date?”

Su Tang blushed and wanted to explain, but Shi Mu had already shaken off her hands. “Miss Bai, please respect yourself.”

Bai Yao stomped her feet angrily and glared at Su Tang indignantly. Then, she wheedled at Shi Mu. “Brother Mu, we just finished the exam today. Do you want to go to a movie with Yaoyao?”

Shi Mu subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he thought of what Shi Man had said previously, he resisted the annoyance in his heart and nodded in an unfriendly tone. “Alright, Su Tang, go back yourself first.”

Of course, Su Tang would not have any objections. However, when she thought of Shi Man’s promise to bring her out to play before the exam, she could not help but feel a little disappointed.

Bai Yao felt even more smug. At the thought that she had the ability to snatch Shi Mu away from another woman, she felt that victory was in her hands. It was as if Shi Mu loved her so much that he could not extricate himself.

Little did she know that Shi Mu really hated her now, but he could only swallow his anger in order to find out the truth as soon as possible.

On the other side, Shi Man instructed Yi Zheng to stop at a farm manor.

When Tang Zhe called, the two of them had just gone across a muddy cement ground. At this moment, Yi Zheng was wiping the dirt off his leather shoes with a confused expression. When he picked up the phone, his tone was a little breathless.

Tang Zhe was shocked. He thought that his master’s combat strength was super strong, but he actually started to exercise again. He hurriedly wanted to hang up.

However, Yi Zheng quickly straightened his back and asked impatiently, “What’s the matter?”

“No, no!” Tang Zhe was so horrified that he could not even speak properly, afraid that his master would be furious because he had disturbed his good deed.

Fortunately, Yi Zheng was not really disturbed by him. He was in a good mood as he arranged, “I won’t go back tonight. Call me if there’s anything at the company.”

“Alright, alright!” Tang Zhe nodded in surprise. It was not until the call ended that he realized that President Yi could not see his expression now. His barely maintained composure suddenly broke down and he could not help but scream on the streets, “Wow! The President is so awesome. He’s staying the night so soon!”

The bystanders who passed by rolled their eyes at him in disdain. They couldn’t stand this young man’s attitude in regard to the other party not returning home at night. They thought that he was a local hooligan dressed in a suit, so they hurriedly took a few steps and hid far away.

Shi Man smiled as she listened to him and Tang Zhe. Her face was filled with a mocking smile. “Who told you that we’re not going back tonight?”

Yi Zheng smiled and bent down to continue carrying her in his arms. His breathing was steady as he said, “I said that there are no streetlights on this mountain road when we came. It’s dangerous to go back too late. There should be a place for tourists in the manor. We’ll go back tomorrow.”

Shi Man sneered and pushed his arm. “That’s enough. There’s no mud on the road ahead. You can put me down.”

Yi Zheng looked at the yellow soil and frowned in disgust. “Wait a little longer. I’ll put it you down when we reach the asphalt road ahead.”

When they came, they were completely under Shi Man’s command and did not take the normal road at all. Therefore, later on, the cars were stuck at the foot of the mountain and could not drive up. Now, they could only rely on manpower to climb the mountain.

Yi Zheng couldn’t bear for her to dirty her clothes, so he carried her up from the foot of the mountain. Only when they reached a place with people did he gently put her down. He smiled and straightened her wrinkled coat. “Let’s go and see what’s delicious inside.”

Shi Man pursed her lips helplessly. What good food could there be here? It was just a farm manor halfway up the mountain.

She only found out about this place by accidentally scrolling through her cell phone and seeing tourist photos online.

Not many people came to this place. Most of them were residents who ran and exercised every morning, so the business of the manor was very bleak.

It was winter now, so almost no outsiders would come here. The manor owner had originally planned to close the place and rest, but he did not expect to really meet two well-dressed guests. He immediately greeted the two of them with a smile and was so happy that his mouth was about to reach his ears.

“Aiyo, are the two of you from out of town? What do you want to eat?”

Shi Man smiled and pointed at the two chickens flapping in the front yard. “That one.”

“Alright!” The boss hurriedly opened the cage to catch the chickens.

Unexpectedly, the thin little girl stretched out her long arm and pushed the man in a suit out. She smiled evilly and said, “Boss, you don’t have to care about this. Let him cook personally today..”
