139 Threat

Some of the people Feng Liang sent were hit in the shoulder and some in the leg by Shi Man. In order to act realisticly, Sean even took the initiative to move forward and received a wound on his arm.

The few of them gritted their teeth in pain and broke out in cold sweat. It was only then that they knew that Shi Man was not the useless Miss Shi of the Shi family. Her strength was already comparable to that of a top mercenary.

It was only then that they knew what fear was. They immediately panicked and looked at Sean for his opinion.

Seeing that the show was almost over, Sean said with a solemn expression, “Let’s retreat first. Treatment of injuries can’t be delayed. It’s more important to treat them first.”

The few of them looked at each other and retreated into the night.

Shi Man had no intention of capturing them alive. She casually threw the gun at the person who had just woken up and turned to walk back to the Shi family manor.

At the end of the red carpet, Su Tang had already left. In her place was a tall and thin figure in the night. When that person saw Shi Man walk in, he immediately strode forward. “Manman, if I say that I accidentally discovered your little secret, will you kill me to silence me?”

Yuan Yi walked to Shi Man’s side with a smile, but there was no smug expression on his face. He was still gentle and calm as if he had not discovered a gunfight, but had instead caught the little sister next door taking a walk late at night.

Shi Man looked up at him with a faint smile. “That depends on how much you discovered.”

“Well…” He lowered his head in mock distress and thought carefully for a moment. Then he leaned over to her and suggested fawningly, “Why don’t I help you keep this secret and you can be good friends with me?”

“Weren’t you afraid that I would kill you just now?” Shi Man stopped in her tracks and looked at Yuan Yi. She said coldly, “I’m afraid I have to explain something to you. I’m not afraid of others threatening me because I always have a way to make the person who threatens me unable to open his mouth.”

Yuan Yi pretended to be shocked and opened his mouth as if he knew that his performance was too exaggerated. Under Shi Man’s playful gaze, he restrained the expression on his face and stared at her gently.

Shi Man suddenly chuckled for some reason, feeling a little interested in the man in front of her. She changed the topic and said calmly, “However, you’re quite interesting. Moreover, you have a good relationship with my brother. I can agree to your condition to be a friend.”

“That’s great!” Yuan Yi was so happy that he almost hugged her shoulder. He only put down his hand awkwardly when she glared at him coldly and walked obediently beside her. “Then can I go to your class to play with you often in the future?”

“What’s so fun about it?” Shi Man asked in confusion.

Yuan Yi had an unfathomable expression on his face as he said matter-of-factly, “You don’t have to care about this. Anyway, you won’t be bored playing with me.”

Seeing that she had already reached the entrance of the villa, Yuan Yi raised his hand and personally opened the door for her. After she entered the villa, he followed her in politely.

The cake in the living room had almost been distributed. Every servant of the Shi family was lucky enough to get a piece of cake personally made by a famous pastry chef in the country. They couldn’t stop praising Shi Man.

Shen Xian sat at the head of the table and listened to the servants praise her precious daughter. She was even happier for her daughter than when she was praised.

The brothers of the Shi family also sat around their mother. When their sister returned, they hurriedly surrounded her with the same worried expression.

“Manman, where did you go just now? Why were you gone for so long?” Shi Ke personally took off her coat and handed it to the butler for safekeeping.

Shi Yu poured her a cup of hot tea to help her dispel the coldness in her body.

Shi He hugged her and sat on the sofa. He picked up a delicious pastry and stuffed it into her hand. “Sister, these were specially customized for you. Try them and see if you like them. If you like them, I’ll keep the pastry chef so she can make pastries for you in the future.”

The three brothers surrounded Shi Man and asked about her well-being. Only Shi Mu, who had a sharp nose, sniffed unnaturally at the side. For some reason, he sniffed a faint whiff of gunpowder. He immediately frowned and sat beside Shi Man. He suddenly asked, “Manman, did you run out to secretly set off firecrackers just now?”

Shi Man frowned and said calmly, “No, why do you ask?”

Shi Mu sniffed around in confusion. “Strange, then why do I smell a strong smell of gunpowder?”

“Where’s the smell of gunpowder?” Shi He leaned towards Shi Man curiously and sniffed her. He glared at Shi Mu in confusion and said angrily, “Is there something wrong with your nose? Did you smell wrong?”

“That can’t be. My nose has always been very sensitive.” Shi Mu rubbed his nose innocently. Coincidentally, he saw Yuan Yi beside him and leaned over to smell him carefully.

Yuan Yi explained in amusement, “Maybe it’s because I smoked a cigarette just now.”
