“No!” Su Tang quickly denied it.
She did not think that marrying into the Shi family would make her unhappy, but she did not plan to marry someone now. She still had many things she wanted to do.
Shi Man did not intend to force her. She raised her eyebrows and sat at the desk as if nothing had happened. She casually picked up her drawing paper. “How’s the family portrait going?”
“I wanted to give that to you as a New Year’s gift.” She carefully took out a framed picture frame from the drawer and handed it to Shi Man. “It’s average. Don’t mind it.”
“No, it’s very well drawn.”
In the photo, everyone in the Shi family was smiling, but the meaning of their smiles was very different.
Her smile was cold, and Shen Xian’s smile was gentle. The others also had characteristics that matched their personalities. When she looked at Yi Zheng again, he still looked cold.
However, for some reason, she could see the deep affection in his eyes.
She suddenly held her breath and hurriedly returned the painting to Su Tang. She took a deep breath and said, “1 suddenly remembered that 1 have something to do. I’ll go out for a while and come back to look for you later.”
In the heat of the moment, she rushed out of the house and only calmed down a little when she got into the car.
Shi Man was secretly shocked. She suddenly wanted to see Yi Zheng’s devilish face. She immediately pulled a long face and forced herself not to think about him. She frowned and drove to the Blood Oath base.
This was the first time the few people who had just come from M City had seen Shi Man in person. Lin Si took the lead and knelt on the ground, calling her boss.
Sean smiled and said happily, “Boss, do you think these people are alright? If you think they’re alright, why don’t you let them stay so that we don’t have enough manpower?”
“Yes, you’ve considered this matter thoroughly,” Shi Man praised indifferently.
Sean felt a little smug. He scratched his head honestly and was about to say a few humble words when Shi Man’s eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light. She said coldly, “Although you should be rewarded for your merits, you should also be punished for your crimes.”
“How?” Sean blinked his big innocent eyes. He had always been eloquent, but at this moment, he was frightened by his boss and could not even speak properly.
Shi Man sneered, took off her coat, and threw it to Lin Si. “Then let me test your skills.”
“It can’t be, right? Boss, you’re going to train me yourself!” Sean slowly shed tears of pain.
Shi Man narrowed her eyes dangerously. “Huh? You’re not willing?”
“Yes!” He pointed at the two tears on his face and trembled with excitement. “I’m so touched that I’m crying. Boss, you could have beaten me up directly, but you still had to find a reason to train me. You really put in a lot of effort.”
Shi Man pursed her lips and smiled. Then, she said with a serious expression, “As the second-in-command of Immaculate, how can you not provide an example to your subordinates? Come!”
As the smoke rose, the two of them started fighting in the snow. Shi Man’s every smooth move stirred up the snow on the ground. As she raised her hand, it stirred up white fog. From the perspective of a bystander, it was quite entertaining.
However, Sean, who was not a bystander, was in a very miserable state.
He guessed that his boss did not kick him into the snow pile to save him some face. Unfortunately, even if his boss deliberately cut him some slack, he was not enough.
Others might not be able to see it, but he knew very well that other than the injured areas on his body, there should not be any intact flesh.
However, Sean benefited a lot from fighting a strong player like Shi Man.
He consoled himself that this was a one-on-one lesson that everyone was envious of. Then, in front of everyone, he was beautifully thrown to the ground by Shi Man.
Sean quickly got up from the ground on his hands and knees and leaned over ingratiatingly. “Boss is so awesome. I feel like I’ve learned a lot more after fighting with you.”
“Is that so?” Shi Man raised her eyebrows in amusement and teased him. “But you’ve indeed improved. 1 don’t know how strong these newcomers are. Arrange for them to participate in the training according to the plan.”
“Yes, Boss!” Sean knew that he had passed this stage safely, so he smiled easily.
Lin Si hugged Shi Man’s clothes and walked up to her with a smile. “Boss is indeed skilled. No wonder Brother Sean admires you so much.”
The moment Shi Man saw him, her cold eyes suddenly lit up. She took the clothes from him and put them on. “You’re Lin Si, right? It’s all thanks to your quick-wittedness this time. Go to Sean and get an additional commission later. Continue to work hard next time.”
“Alright, I understand.” Lin Si’s smiling gaze was fixed on her face. When he saw her beautiful face, he took out a hairpin he had bought on the black market.
However, before he could give it to Shi Man, a figure filled with hostility suddenly stepped between the two of them. That person was wearing a tailored suit and looked at him arrogantly. “Do your job well. Don’t think about anything you don’t deserve..”
