The short line of words made Shi Man’s heart skip a beat. The excitement of knowing the truth made her look energetic even though she was sick.
Yi Zheng did not waste any time. After giving some instructions in the company, he asked Tang Zhe to send him to the Shi family.
When Butler Qi saw Yi Zheng, who was in a wheelchair and wanted to visit Missy personally, his eyes curved into slits as he happily invited him into the house.
On the comfortable and warm bed, the girl closed her eyes leisurely, as if she had a bad dream. Her eyebrows seemed to be furrowed, and she looked a little panicked.
This was the first time Yi Zheng had seen such an expression on Shi Man’s face. He felt that it was new and took a few glances.
Unexpectedly, the girl was very vigilant even in her sleep. Just as his burning gaze landed on her face, the girl suddenly opened her eyes. The panicked expression disappeared and was replaced by a cold gaze.
Shi Man felt a pair of hot eyes staring at her in her sleep. After she opened her eyes, she wanted to subconsciously grab the other party’s lifeline and control the initiative. However, when she saw that the person was Yi Zheng, the hostility around her suddenly relaxed, and her expression was tainted with fatigue.
“You’re here.” Shi Man leaned back against the bed and drank a cup of tea that was drying on the cabinet to moisten her throat. Only then did she look down at Yi Zheng’s legs, which were wrapped up like dumplings. She couldn’t help but be a little angry. “You dare to be discharged from the hospital with such serious injuries. Do you not want your legs anymore?”
“Of course. Without these legs, my fiancee will despise me.” Yi Zheng pretended to be aggrieved and blinked. He placed his cold fingers on her forehead to test her temperature. After a while, he took a deep breath and said, “It seems that your fever has subsided. What did you dream of just now?”
“I dreamed of your Grandma,” Shi Man replied casually, but her eyes were fixed on the expression on his face.
Yi Zheng was clearly stunned for a moment before nodding in understanding. “You should have dreamed of her. Grandma doted on me when she was still alive. Now that she knows that you want to be my wife, she definitely wants to see you.”
Shi Man raised her eyebrows noncommittally and smiled. “1 want to burn incense for the old lady too. When are we going?”
Yi Zheng widened his eyes in shock. He opened his mouth slightly and quickly pursed his lips as if he was conflicted about something. However, in the end, he surrendered under Shi Man’s calm gaze. “Alright, if you want to go, I’m willing to take you to see Grandpa and Grandma at any time.”
“Alright, then let’s not delay.” Shi Man lifted the blanket and was about to get out of bed.
Yi Zheng quickly pressed her hand down and frowned in disapproval. “Not now. You’re still sick. Lie at home today and don’t go anywhere.”
Shi Man blinked innocently. “But my fever has already subsided!”
“That won’t do either.” Yi Zheng’s attitude was firm.
Shi Man pursed her lips speechlessly and rolled her eyes at him. She deliberately wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, leaving only the back of her head.
Yi Zheng chuckled dotingly. Just as he was about to turn around and tell Butler Qi something, the person on the bed actually had eyes on her back. Her muffled voice carried a hint of warning.
“You’re still running around with a broken leg. Let Tang Zhe carry you up and lie down. Otherwise, you can scram back to your hospital bed!”
“Okay, okay, okay.” Yi Zheng smiled helplessly and let Tang Zhe, who was guarding outside the door, come in to let him help him lie on the bed.
Just as he was thinking about how to speak, the corner of the blanket actually covered his face.
Yi Zheng couldn’t help but laugh. He turned his head to look at the girl’s stubborn and angry back and patted her back gently. “Don’t be angry anymore, okay? 1 promise you that I’ll definitely bring you there when you recover.”
Only then did Shi Man feel a little better. She snorted and turned around. She gave him half of the blanket and curled up beside him before quickly falling asleep.
Perhaps it was because the medicine in the morning had the effect of helping her sleep, but she slept especially soundly this time.
In her dream, she no longer came to the sea of fire alone. Instead, she was in a beautiful manor. The surroundings were filled with the fresh fragrance of flowers, and hearty laughter came from the pavilion from time to time.
Shi Man followed the voice and walked around the bushes that blocked her vision. She was surprised to see two beautiful girls of similar age sitting in the pavilion.
When they saw Shi Man, they even warmly invited her over.
The two of them had been chatting and laughing. Shi Man recognized one of them as Lu Xiang when she was young, but she had never seen the other girl.
That person had long black hair, but there was always a hint of scheming in the corners of her eyes.
When Lu Xiang told her about her upcoming marriage, that person’s face was filled with joy, but Shi Man saw it clearly. The emotion that flashed across that person’s eyes was clearly deep hatred.
She slept until noon. Su Tang and Bai Xue knew that Shi Man was sick and especially ran back from school to see her during the lunch break. Unexpectedly, there was another man lying on Shi Man’s bed!
Yi Zheng had already woken up when they approached the bedroom. Tang Zhe should have gone to deal with the company’s matters. Now that there was no one guarding outside, the two of them entered openly.
Bai Xue was so surprised to see Yi Zheng that she almost screamed..
