The next day, Shi Man stayed at home obediently and taught Su Tang body techniques. She saw Shi Mu rush in happily.
Butler Qi hurriedly came over and asked anxiously, “Fourth Young Master, how is it? Have you brought her back?”
Shi Mu smiled and said, “She’s back, she’s back. I came to get some warm clothes. It’s too cold outside. Bai Xue’s body is weak now. I’m afraid she’ll catch a cold.”
Only then did the butler relax.
After so many days, he finally saw the Fourth Young Master who was always laughing and joking in the past. His anxious heart was finally relieved. He quickly took a thick coat and accompanied Shi Mu out to welcome him.
Bai Xue walked into the living room with a face full of shame.
She had aborted the Shi family’s flesh and blood, not given birth to a child for the Shi family. She felt a little sorry to be so carefully cared for.
Shi Mu had always been carefree and did not notice the blush on her face.
However, Shi Man saw it clearly. She walked over with Su Tang and smiled as she said, “You don’t have to think too much. Just stay at home. When you recover, we won’t ask if you want to stay or leave.”
As soon as Bai Xue saw her, a smile immediately appeared in her eyes. She nodded obediently and said, “Alright, 1 understand. 1 can only trouble you during this period of time.”
Shen Xian was also smiling as she helped her to the guest room upstairs that had been prepared in advance. She advised earnestly, “If you need anything, you have to tell me. If you feel embarrassed, you can tell Shi Mu or Man Man. Just take this place as your home.”
“Thank you, Auntie.” Bai Xue’s eyes brimmed with tears as she held Shen Xian’s hand.
She had thought that she would become a thorn in the Shi family’s side. After all, once her existence was known by outsiders, she was destined to tarnish the reputation of the Shi family. Who would have thought that this family would be so kind and persuade her to come under their care? She was really flattered.
Seeing that the atmosphere was about right, Shen Xian pulled her son over and pushed him to Bai Xue’s side. “Let him help you put everything away. Tell him what you want to eat. He’ll be in charge of your meals and daily life from now on.”
Shi Mu’s face suddenly turned red. He stole a glance at Bai Xue carefully, but his gaze seemed to have been scalded. He instantly looked away. “Mom, don’t say that. Butler Qi and the nanny at home are better at taking care of people than me. Wouldn’t it be better to instruct them to take care of Bai Xue?”
Bai Xue thought so too. She did not want to trouble Shi Mu at all. She smiled politely and said, “I know that Auntie is doing this for my own good, but I really can’t continue to trouble Brother Shi Mu. 1 can take care of myself. Auntie, don’t worry.”
Shen Xian was almost speechless. She secretly despised her son’s cowardice in her heart, but she still had a kind expression on her face. “Alright, alright, alright. Xiao Xue is a capable child. Auntie knows. 1 won’t disturb your rest then.”
With that, she turned around and left with Shi Man and Su Tang, leaving Shi Mu alone.
As his mother, she could only help him to this extent. If he still did not understand, no one could do anything about it. They could only let him continue to comprehend slowly.
Shi Man saw through her thoughts and accompanied her back to the living room. She asked with a smile, “Mom, do you think Bai Xue is a good girl and want her to be your daughter-in-law?”
Shen Xian smiled slyly and glanced upstairs. She lowered her voice and said, “You can tell? Was my behavior so obvious just now?”
“It’s not that obvious.” Su Tang pursed her lips and snickered. She agreed. “Bai Xue is indeed not bad. She’s filial and independent. 1 just don’t know if Fourth Brother will like her.”
Shen Xian knew her son the best. She looked like she was watching a good show and said, “You don’t know this, but Shi Mu has never been in a relationship before. Ever since he was young, he would blush for a long time if other girls touched him. It would be strange if a person like him doesn’t care about his first time!”
First time?
Su Tang was stunned for a moment before she understood. Her face instantly turned red.
“Mom,” Shi Man gave her a disapproving look.
Shen Xian immediately smiled awkwardly and changed the topic. “There are still three bachelors in our family who have yet to be settled. As a mother, how can 1 not be concerned?”
Su Tang shyly agreed and suddenly felt like she was in an uncomfortable situation.
Shen Xian immediately looked at her and sized her up. Suddenly, a look of realization appeared in her eyes.
Shi Man quickly stood up and pulled her behind her. “Mom, we still have to exercise. We’ll go back upstairs first.”
“What kind of exercise do you want to go back to your room for?” Shen Xian asked curiously. However, she saw the two of them walking faster and faster. In the blink of an eye, they were out of her sight.
She could only give up on the sudden thought and continue to think about who else was still unmarried.
After Su Tang was rescued by Shi Man, the nervousness from before subsided slightly.
Shi Man leaned against the door and looked down at her with a smile.. “Why? Is the possibility of marrying into my family making you so flustered?”
