Shi Man opened the car door and got out with a solemn expression.

Su Tang was a little worried about her. Just as she was about to say something, Shi Man stopped her.

“Go in first. I’ll be there in a while.” Shi Man looked at the man sitting in the car and sighed. She walked around to the other side and got into the car.

The car door closed with a click, but Su Tang was still hesitating.

Bai Xue patted her arm gently and comforted her in a low voice. “Go in first. Let’s listen to Manman.”

Only then did Su Tang follow her in.

The car was filled with the fragrance of flowers. Shi Man quietly identified it and realized that there was no smell of harmful substances. Only then was she relieved. She turned her eyes and met a pair of smiling eyes.

Those flirtatious eyes were very beautiful, but the smile only flowed on the surface and did not reach the bottom of his eyes.

The owner of those beautiful eyes opened his thin lips and said sadly, “Were you afraid that I would drug you just now?”

Shi Man was stunned for a moment before slowly shaking her head. “You know, it’s a habit, but I know you won’t.”

“How do you know that I won’t? Am I not able to retaliate after being betrayed by my former alliance?” Yuan Yi’s smile deepened when he said this, but his gentle gaze seemed to be able to see through everything.

Shi Man let him regard her calmly with an apologetic expression. “1 haven’t forgotten what happened in the past. You and I are still friends. I won’t let Yi Zheng target you.”

Yuan Yi suddenly laughed and shook his head. “It seems that a lot has happened while I was away. Xiao Mu actually asked me how to woo girls.”

Shi Man was not too surprised. She lowered her eyes and smiled. “It’s good to leave for a while. Too much has happened recently. You should have heard that nearly half of the city has been destroyed.”

“But 1 want to be by your side more.” Yuan Yi stared straight at her. There were too many emotions in his eyes. There was jealousy, resentment, and even intense unwillingness.

Shi Man sighed softly and decided to take this opportunity to tell him. “Yuanyi, regardless of whether Yi Zheng and 1 are together, you will always be a very good friend in my heart.”

“Friend.” Yuan Yi laughed self-deprecatingly. He reached out his hand as if he wanted to caress this face that he had missed day and night.

However, in the end, he gave up under her rejection. He felt a little embarrassed and retracted his hand. He heaved a sigh of relief and pretended to be relaxed. “Alright, friend. Do you mind letting me go to your house for lunch?”

Shi Man was stunned for a moment before the corners of her lips curled up into a smile. She nodded and said, “Of course not. My brother should be at home at this time. Have you contacted him after you came back?”

“Not yet. 1 ran here to see you as soon as I got off the plane.” When Yuan Yi said this, his eyes were fixed on her.

However, this time, he didn’t expect her to respond. He looked away for an instant and casually got out of the car to stretch. “I’m so tired. I won’t go around G City in the near future and won’t go anywhere.”

Shi Man smiled and said, “Okay.” She brought her into the Shi family’s manor and introduced her to Bai Xue.

Shi Mu was sitting on the sofa diligently peeling walnuts for Bai Xue. When he saw Yuan Yi, he jumped up from the sofa and stuffed the walnuts in his hand into Bai Xue’s hand excitedly. Then, he pounced over and gave Yuan Yi a big bear hug.

“Young brat, why didn’t you tell me in advance that you were back so that I could pick you up!” Shi Mu invited her to sit on the sofa and quickly instructed the servant to pour him a cup of cold tea. “Why did you go for so long this time? Are you still leaving after coming back?”

“I’m not leaving. Something happened to the overseas business I was originally in charge of last time, but it’s already been handed over. In the future, I won’t be in charge of the business there and will focus on staying in the country.”

Yuan Yi answered briskly. With one sentence, he skipped over the days of working day and night overseas just to return to the country to see Shi Man as soon as possible.

However, Shi Man could still roughly guess why there was a problem with his business. After careful consideration, she took the initiative to extend an olive branch. “Actually, there’s a document on my desk that was left for you. It’s a big business. If we work together, we will definitely be able to successfully complete it.”

Yuan Yi raised his eyebrows slightly, understanding that she was trying to make up for the damage he had suffered from Yi Zheng.

Initially, he wanted to refuse, but when he thought of Yi Zheng’s expression when he found out that he was working with Shi Man, he suddenly became interested. He smiled and accepted it. “Alright, we’ll discuss the cooperation tomorrow. Can you treat me to lunch now?”

“Of course. Let’s not talk about a meal. Come to the house anytime in the future. 1’11 get our chef to make your favorite dishes.”

When his childhood playmate returned, Shi Mu was so happy that he couldn’t close his mouth. He immediately instructed Butler Qi to make Yuan Yi’s favorite dishes.

Bai Xue sat at the side and listened to him quietly. Then, she stood up with a smile and said, “I’ve eaten lunch. 1’11 go back and see my mother first. Have fun..”
