Shi Mu had been waiting for her in the courtyard early. It was not easy for him to wait for his sister to return on an empty stomach. From the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw Yi Zheng, who was following behind openly. He immediately frowned and said angrily, “Why are you here?”

Yi Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Shi Man’s straight back. His meaning was very obvious.

Shi Mu immediately widened his eyes in disbelief and asked in shock, “No way? Sister, were you with him just now? Didn’t you say that you were going shopping with Su Tang?”

!!

Shi Mu was aggrieved like a little wife who had been abandoned by her husband.

Shi Man couldn’t stand it anymore. She shook her head and explained to him helplessly as she walked, “He insisted on following me back for a free meal. He even said that Mom had agreed. Have you heard Mom mention it?”

Shi Mu frowned and thought about it carefully. He said uncertainly, “I think she said that someone is coming to eat with us today, so we waited until now.”

Seeing the faint smile on the person behind him, Shi Mu immediately said angrily, “If I had known that he was the one who’s coming, I would have eaten everything!”

As soon as he pushed open the door and walked into the villa, Shi Mu couldn’t help but complain, “Mom, why didn’t you say that the person who came today was actually Yi Zheng? Why are we waiting for him to eat together?”

Shi Zhong looked at his wife affectionately and ate the fruit she had personally fed him. After finishing it happily, he looked up and glared at Shi Mu. “Even if Yi Zheng and Manman canceled the engagement, he’s still an important guest of our family. How can you say that? You’ve embarrassed the Shi family.”

Shi Zhong’s words were harsher when he lectured his son than when he lectured Shi Man. Fortunately, Shi Mu was already used to it and completely ignored his father’s words. He glared at Yi Zheng, who had taken off his coat and was sitting on the sofa. “Eat all you want. You’ll choke to death in a while.”

“Tsk, Xiao Mu.” Shi He saw his father’s darkening expression and quickly smacked his lips. He reached out and pulled him to his side. Although he didn’t want to please Yi Zheng, he still forced out a good word with a fake smile on account of his father watching. “Let’s eat first. Father especially got someone to make a lot of dishes according to your taste because he knew you were coming.”

“Alright, thank you, Uncle Shi.” Yi Zheng smiled appropriately and personally helped Shi Zhong sit at the head of the table. He sat at the next seat, opposite Shi Man.

Shen Xian sat beside Shi Zhong and smiled as she picked up food for Shi Man. “Manman must be starving. Eat more. If there’s anything else you want to eat, tell the chef and ask them to cook for you now.”

“Don’t spoil her too much.” Shi Zhong always liked to put on a stern expression in front of the children, so every time Shen Xian doted on Shi Man, he would interrupt.

Sure enough, when Shen Xian heard this, she immediately put down her chopsticks unhappily and glared at him unhappily. “Our daughter was shopping outside and is only eating now. So what if I let her eat more of her favorite dishes? Do you have to fuss over such a small matter with the child? It’s not like our family can’t afford it!”

“That’s not what I meant.” Shi Zhong realized that he had accidentally said something wrong again. He couldn’t care less about eating and hurriedly put down his chopsticks to apologize to Shen Xian.

Shen Xian did not want to make things too ugly in front of Yi Zheng. She could only roll her eyes and continue to pick up food for Shi Man, but no matter what Shi Zhong said, she refused to pay attention to him.

Shi Man had no feelings for Shi Zhong, her useless father. She just did not want Shen Xian to suffer.

Fortunately, even if Shi Zhong did not like her, he still held his mother in his heart, saving her from worrying about the love between her parents.

Yi Zheng saw that she didn’t care and persuaded her helplessly, “Aunt Shen, don’t be angry. Uncle Shi is also doing this for Manman, but I really want to know what Manman usually likes to eat. In the future, when she goes to the Yi family, I’ll get the family to prepare it in advance.”

Shi Zhong frowned and understood what he meant, but he did not want to ruin the family’s mood by mentioning it at the dining table.

After all, the matter between Shi Man and Yi Zheng had been going on for a long time. The biggest reason why the two children had become like this was actually because of their daughter. “Let’s eat first. I’ll let your Aunt Shen tell you slowly after dinner.”

After secretly watching this drama, Shi Mu nudged his sister with his elbow and lowered his voice. “Don’t tell me Yi Zheng is here to officially propose marriage?”

The marriage between the two families was originally decided by their mothers. However, if Yi Zheng really mentioned this to Shi Zhong, it could only mean that he really wanted to marry Manman because Shi Zhong was publicly acknowledged by the two families to be single-minded. Once he decided on something, he could not go back on his word.

If Yi Zheng and Shi Zhong really discussed the engagement, no matter who went back on their word, Shi Zhong would fall out with them. Even if it was the Yi family whose strength was a mystery, Shi Zhong would not hesitate at all. The two families would definitely break up.
