Chapter 205 Ugly Photo
Shi Man picked up the call personally.
She had the habit of waking up in the morning for morning exercise. She had just returned after running around a few times when she heard her phone ring.
Zhu Wen was slightly stunned when he heard the crisp female voice on the other end of the phone. He suddenly asked as if he had sensed something, “Are you Shi Man?”
“Yes, it’s me. What’s the matter?” Shi Man took the towel from the butler and wiped her sweat. Then, she drank the cold tea in the cup in one gulp, and the heat emitted from her body lessened a little.
Zhu Wen felt inexplicably nervous. Thinking of Shi Man, whom he had seen in school, he coughed dryly and said, “Your sister is hospitalized. Aren’t you going to visit her? Her life has just been saved and she needs someone to take care of her.”
Shi Man casually threw off her slippers and lay on the sofa. She adjusted her posture and said slowly, “What does it have to do with me? Isn’t she still alive? Even if she’s dead, I won’t go over and collect her corpse!”
Zhu Wen did not expect Shi Man to have such an attitude. He suddenly realized the reason why the Shi family did not go to the hospital to see Shi Jing. It was not that they had other arrangements as he had imagined, but that they had no intention of going at all!
But what was going on? Hadn’t Shi Jing been placed in the Shi family for many years? Moreover, it was rumored that Shi Man was very obedient to Shi Jing. Why did it seem like that was not the case now?
He quickly digested the shock in his heart and reorganized his words. “Shi Man, Shi Jing was almost killed last night. The surgery has just ended in the hospital. If you don’t have time, you can send a nurse over first. Are the others in your family around? Don’t they want to see Shi Jing?”
“Aren’t you annoying?” Shi Man threw the towel on the table impatiently and said sternly, “I said I’m not going. Shi Jing has nothing to do with our family anymore. Don’t call me in the future. Since you’re so enthusiastic, why don’t you be a good person and hire a nurse for her?”
With that, she hung up decisively and threw the receiver on the table. She closed her eyes in frustration.
When Su Tang washed up and went downstairs, she happened to see her in an extremely bad mood. She silently walked to her side and bent down to put away her slippers. Then, she took the towel to the bathroom to wash it before coming back to pour her a cup of hot tea.
“Don’t always drink cold water. You just came back from training. Your body is hot. If you drink cold water again, it’ll easily cause problems.”
Shi Man opened her eyes calmly and saw Su Tang sitting quietly at the side, looking at her. She nodded expressionlessly and sat up to take the teacup from her. After blowing on it to cool it down, she drank it all.
“Why are you up so early today? It’s finally your day off. Don’t you want to sleep a little longer?”
Su Tang slowly shook her head, her eyes filled with smiles. “Last night, I learned a new dish. I want to make it for you to try. Is that okay?”
“Why did you suddenly learn to cook?” Shi Man could not help but smile. However, she still nodded happily and said, “Alright, I’ll leave breakfast to you today.”
When Shi He yawned and went downstairs with Shi Mu, he saw the two young ladies walking into the kitchen happily.
Shi He immediately came to his senses and hurriedly ran downstairs to follow the two of them. He rubbed his hands in anticipation and said, “My good sister, why are you so interested in cooking this morning? It looks like I can eat your cooking again!”
Shi Man glanced at his greedy expression and waved her hand mercilessly. “I’m not doing it. Su Tang wanted to do it. I’m just going in to help.”
Shi He immediately wilted. The sleepiness that he had just chased away returned. He yawned and curled up on the sofa to sleep.
He slept soundly and even smelled the rich fragrance of food in his dream. Then, the scene changed and he saw an entire table of food that Shi Man had meticulously prepared in front of him. It was so delicious that he wanted to swallow the table.
Seeing that Shi He was drooling in his sleep, Shi Mu chuckled and took away the plate that was placed in front of his nose. He took out his phone and took a photo of his silly sleeping face. “I’ve earned it, I’ve earned it. Let him scold me all day. This time, I have something on him!”
“Be careful. Xiao He will chase after you when he wakes up.” Shi Yu looked at his naughty brother in amusement as he slowly ate the food in front of him.
Not only was Shi Yu gentle like jade, but he also looked like a gentleman. Even his upbringing was carved into his bones.
Even when he was eating at home, he would not stretch out his arm to pick up the dishes that were far away. He would always eat the dishes in front of him. He ate quietly, making people subconsciously follow the rules.
On the other hand, Shi Mu was the complete opposite of Shi Yu’s personality. He had a lively demeanor and knew how to put on airs as the President of the Student Union when they were eating outside. However, when they were at home, he had always been nonchalant. Shi Zhong had even criticized his upbringing many times.
Every time this happened, Shen Xian would help them. In this family, other than not allowing her husband to teach her daughter a lesson, she would not let her sons do as they pleased.
