Chapter 2: The Family

For a moment, a group of people appeared in the ward.

Shi Man took a closer look. The young men who surrounded her were probably Shi Man's four brothers - Shi Ke, Shi Jue, Shi He, and Shi Mu.

It had to be said that the Shi family's genes were really good. From Madam Shen Xian to the four young masters of the Shi family, all of them looked outstanding.

At a glance, the four sons of the Shi family looked similar, but on closer look, the feeling and vibe they gave off were completely different. Especially the eldest brother, Shi Ke. It was really easy to tell that he was the eldest son at a glance. He was steady and mature, giving off an imposing aura.

Fourth Brother Shi Mu was about the same age as Shi Man and was a little rash. It gave the other brothers a headache, and Shi He was the one who had the greatest headache.

After Shi Mu was born, Shen Xian, who did not have a daughter, was very sad. Shi Zhong abandoned the company's affairs and brought Shen Xian around the world. fre ewebnovel.com

As the eldest son, Shi Ke could only pick up the mess his father had left behind and take care of the company.

Shi Jue had to help Shi Ke handle the company's matters and juggle his high school studies at the same time. Naturally, he did not have the time to care for his newborn younger brother. Hence, the burden of taking care of Shi Mu was placed on Shi He.

When Shi He was young, he took over matters such as changing his brother's diapers and stepped onto the path of no return.

"Alright, alright. Manman just woke up and hasn't recovered yet. Don't disturb her," Shi Jue said as he covered Shi Man with a quilt and helped her lie down slowly.

When she was reading the novel, Shi Man liked Shi Jue the most.

This Second Young Master of the Shi family had a name with the same symbolism as hers. He was as gentle as jade. Even the arrogant and domineering Host would look for Shi Jue to confide in him when she was sad.

Shi Jue was also the only member of the Shi family that Yi Zheng did not want to kill. However, when faced with the broken family and the good friend who had harmed his family, Shi Jue still chose to be enemies with Yi Zheng.

In the end, he naturally couldn't defeat the male lead's protagonist halo. The feud took a toll on his body and he died of depression.

"Alright, Manman finally woke up. As her brothers, you should take good care of her." Shi Zhong walked straight to Shen Xian and hugged her. "Look at how tired your mother is."

Shen Xian pushed Shizhong's shoulder. "I'm not tired. I have to be by Manman's side at all times. Otherwise, what if Manman misses her mother?"

Seeing everyone surrounding her worriedly, Shi Man was a little dazed. Was this how it felt to have a family…

At this moment, a tall and charming girl walked over. "Aunt, don't worry. Rest well. I'll take care of Manman. She'll be fine."

Who was this?

"That's good. With Jingjing taking care of Manman, I'm much more relieved."

Jingjing, Shi Jing!

Shi Man remembered. So it was this scheming bitch.

Shi Jing was the daughter of a distant relative of Shi Man. Initially, she came to G City to study and stayed with the Shi family for many years.

The distant relative of the Shi family had always wanted to curry favor with them and had racked their brains to let their daughter stay with the Shi family. In addition, Shi Jing had always been very obedient and sensible. The Host liked her very much, so they let Shi Jing stay.

Shi Jing had been jealous of the Host since she was young. She often schemed against her and encouraged her to do bad things. Shi Jing then pretended to be obedient and cute, setting up a basis for others to compare the two of them.

The Host was just an arrogant little girl who had been spoiled. It was Shi Jing who had bewitched her to do many vicious things. Shi Jing contributed greatly to the Host's provocation of the female protagonist, Su Tang.

Not only that, but Shi Jing also betrayed the Shi family in the end and joined the male lead. This allowed the male lead to get hold of important information and beat the Shi family to the point of no return.

Thinking of this, Shi Man's expression changed. Compared to her, Shi Jing was too inexperienced when it came to acting.

"No, no…" Shi Man pushed Shi Jing away and hid in Shi Jue's arms."Sister Jing Jing, I don't want to cut my wrist again. It hurts."

As Shi Man spoke, she squeezed out a few tears. Her deer-like eyes were filled with fear, and she looked aggrieved.

Shi Jing did not expect Shi Man to say it so directly. Her smile froze on her face. "Xiao Man, what are you talking about?"

"Sister Jingjing, didn't you say that as long as I slit my wrist, Yi Zheng would feel sorry for me and come to see me?" Shi Man continued to maintain her innocent appearance.

"What? Jingjing asked you to slit your wrist?" When Shen Xian heard Shi Man's words, she switched from her gentle and virtuous appearance and scolded sternly, "Shi Jing, what's going on?"

Shi Jing quickly argued, "I didn't. Manman, are you out of your mind? I don't understand what you're talking about."

"Is that so? Sister Jingjing, you brought that knife to me. You pressed my hand and asked me to cut my wrist. Do you want me to get someone to send the knife over to check for fingerprints?" freew(e)bnovel.(c)om

Shi Man glanced at the chicken soup that Shi Jing had brought over. She picked it up and sniffed it, pretending to drink it. Then, she suddenly stopped. "It seems that I have to test this chicken soup too. Why do you always like to add something to my food?"
