Shi Man held back her laughter and sat up expressionlessly. “It’s fine. Since you’re awake, get up. 1 don’t know what’s going on outside.”

“Yeah.”

When the warmth in his arms suddenly disappeared, Yi Zheng was still in a daze. After a moment, he regained his composure and returned to his room to change.

The butler had already prepared dinner for them downstairs. Seeing the two of them go downstairs side by side, he could not help but sigh at how compatible they were. He smiled and his attitude towards Shi Man could be said to have changed 360 degrees.

“President Yi, Miss Shi, the food is ready. When Madam came back, she instructed us to prepare everything according to Miss Shi’s taste. 1 specially called the chef and made it according to what Madam said. Try it and see if it suits your taste.”

“How thoughtful.” Shi Man casually picked up some food and ate it. She was about to ask Yi Zheng about the meeting just now when she saw the old butler’s eager eyes from the corner of her eye. She immediately laughed and praised, “It’s delicious. I like it very much.”

Only then did the butler feel relieved. He smiled and said a few polite words before leaving the two of them alone.

After the butler left, she asked nonchalantly, “Who was the man sitting opposite Uncle Yi at the meeting just now?”

Yi Zheng frowned and thought for a moment before saying, “That’s my uncle, Yi Kun, my father’s brother. Beside him is his son, Yi Che. The person in charge of hosting the meeting today is my eldest grandfather, my grandfather’s biological brother, Yi Ming.”

Shi Man raised her eyebrows slightly and said, “They seem to be very dissatisfied with you. Do you have any grudges?”

Yi Zheng couldn’t help but laugh. He shook his head helplessly and said, “We’re all biological brothers and are connected by blood. What grudge can there be? The only thing that can make them bear a grudge is that Grandpa handed the company to my father before he passed away, not Uncle.”

The type of conflict to that was prone to erupt in aristocratic families was power struggles.

Back then, Yi Zheng’s biological grandfather, Yi Cheng, had relied on his own strength to raise the Yi family to its current position and was respected by the entire Yi family.

However, before he died, he handed all his power and wealth to his only son, Yi Long. He only left some dispensable branches to his brother’s family, making Yi Zheng’s father the head of the Yi family.

How could Yi Kun not hate this? Even now, he still made things difficult for Yi Zheng. He always wanted to stuff his son into the head office so that he could take the opportunity to take back the right that belonged to him.

Shi Man looked at the man beside her and a seemingly blind thought suddenly flashed across her mind.

Yi Zheng turned his head and met her unblinking gaze. He smiled gently and said, “Why are you looking at me like that? Have you realized that you like me?”

Shi Man pursed her lips and chuckled. She shook her head and said, “I’m thinking that even if your grandfather didn’t leave everything to your father back then, the Yi family will be in your hands sooner or later, given your ability.”

“Are you that confident in me?” The smile on Yi Zheng’s lips deepened.

The man, who was always cold, suddenly smiled gently. He was like a stream that melted in spring, making people feel cold and intoxicated.

Shi Man stared fixedly at the smile on his lips for a while. Suddenly, she smiled and nodded frankly. “Yes, I know you can do it.”

“Yi Zheng.” Shi Man lowered her eyes slightly, her ears turning pink. “I think you’re very different from the you 1 knew at the beginning.”

Yi Zheng raised his eyebrows disapprovingly. “What’s wrong with that? Haven’t you changed a lot?”

“I changed a lot because…” Shi Man almost blurted out the truth about transmigration. She quickly shut her mouth and looked at his understanding expression. She suddenly realized that she had almost been tricked by him just now. Her expression darkened. “It’s nothing. Let’s eat.”

Yi Zheng knew from her expression that she had misunderstood him. He quickly explained, “You’ve misunderstood. I didn’t mean to test you just now. I just wanted to say that it’s good that you’re like this. I like the current you.”

Shi Man’s hand that was holding the chopsticks suddenly paused. Her gaze shifted unnaturally to the other side, but the corners of her mouth could not help but curl up. “Yes, stop nagging. Let’s eat.”

Of course, Yi Zheng doted on her. Hearing her words, he immediately shut his mouth and ate quietly.

The two of them had just put down their chopsticks when the butler rushed into the cafeteria. His face was red as he panted. “Not good. I just received a call from Young Master Shi. He said that CEO Shi and Madam Shi were robbed when they were distributing aid. Madam Shi was injured and has been sent to the hospital.”

“What?” Shi Man instantly jumped up from the chair, picked up her coat, and rushed out.

Yi Zheng quickly followed her. He asked for the address of the hospital in detail and drove Shi Man over.

In the ward, Shen Xian was sitting on the bed with a thick cast on her arm. She was eating the porridge that Shi Zhong had fed her.

“Mom.” Shi Man rushed into the ward. When she saw her pale face and injured arm, she was furious.. “How could there be a stampede? What were the bodyguards at the event location doing?!”
