117 Nickname

The atmosphere in the dining room was a little strange. Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly with smiles.

At this moment, the two brothers, Shi He and Shi Mu, wanted to protect their sister. Yi Zheng’s expression darkened.

These two people had always been guarding against him like he was a thief. He had never been so openly despised.

When Su Tang returned, she found out that Shi Man and the others had come to the Yi family and ran over to greet her happily.

Shi Man’s bowl was being filled up by her two brothers. At this moment, she looked helpless. From the corner of her eye, she saw Su Tang enter and immediately pushed Shi Mu next to her. She smiled and said, “Brother, can you give up a seat for my classmate?”

Shi Mu turned around and glanced at Su Tang, who was standing at the door. Then, he reluctantly stood up and sat at the end. He glared at Yi Zheng with a fierce gaze.

Su Tang nodded at Shi Mu apologetically and sat beside Shi Man with a smile. “I didn’t know you would come. If I had known, I wouldn’t have studied today.”

She greeted Lu Xiang and Yi Zheng briefly before turning her head to talk to Shi Man intently.

Shi Man frowned slightly and asked, “You study until so late every day before going home?”

At the mention of this, Su Tang blushed in embarrassment. “I’m not as smart as you. You learn everything so quickly. In order to get a scholarship at the end of this semester, I have to work hard.”

Shi Man did not comment, but she could not help but worry in her heart. She said calmly, “You can come home with me in the future. It’s safer to study at my house than at school.”

Su Tang had the physique of a female lead and was easily in danger. She did not want to receive her distress message in the middle of the night. Since the male lead would only be a decoration and not do anything, she had no choice but to plan for Su Tang.

After all, Su Tang was her only good friend now.

“Will I disturb you too much?” Su Tang lowered her head shyly, not daring to agree easily, afraid that she would be disliked by others.

This time, Shi Mu nodded generously. Although he was sitting at the end, it did not stop him from taking over the conversation. “It’s not a bother. Our family is very happy that Manman can make friends. Since Manman took the initiative to ask, you can come.”

“Auntie Lu, Brother Yi, can I go?” Although Su Tang had obtained the Shi family’s approval, she still had to follow the rules and ask for their opinion.

After all, she could go to school now because of the Yi family’s financial support. She had to ask them for their opinion.

Lu Xiang did not mind. Her daughter-in-law was kind and helpful, so she naturally could not interfere.

Yi Zheng did not care about Su Tang’s whereabouts at all. It had nothing to do with him where she wanted to study, but…

He looked up at Shi Man with an imperceptible smile in his eyes. “After all, I’m Su Tang’s nominal guardian. I have to think about her safety. The distance between the Shi family and the Yi family is not short. Since Su Tang has to study late at home every night, my people will pick Su Tang up every day. I hope the Shi family won’t mind.”

“Whatever.” Shi Man did not care about the Yi family’s arrangements at all. In her opinion, there was no need to mobilize so many people. If Su Tang had taken her money back then, she would have been a millionaire long ago. She would not have to live under someone else’s roof.

After the few of them had a meal with their own thoughts, the Shi family wanted to take a car back.

Before leaving, Lu Xiang held Shi Man’s hand reluctantly and stuffed the supplements she had prepared into the hands of the Shi family’s driver with tears in her eyes. “These are all for Manman. You have to be careful not to cause any damage.”

“Ah Xiang, you’re really considerate. Manman doesn’t lack anything at home. Why would she trouble you to give her so many things?” Although Shen Xian and Lu Xiang had been good sisters for many years, she still fully supported Shi Man’s decision.

The Yi family had given her a gift so suddenly. It was impossible for Shen Xian to believe that they did not have other intentions.

“Whether you need it or not is up to your family,, but if I don’t prepare it for Manman personally, I’ll feel bad.” She held Shi Man’s hand, as intimate as a mother and daughter pair that everyone would be envious of. “If Manman needs anything in the future, you just have to tell me. I’ll get someone to pluck the moon in the sky for you, as long as you’re happy.”

“Thank you, Auntie Lu.” Shi Man nodded politely. She glanced at Su Tang, who was following behind her, and smiled. “Tangtang is my best friend now. I can only be at ease if she lives well in the Yi family.”

“Of course. A family like ours won’t treat her badly.” Lu Xiang understood what she meant and sighed at this child’s kindness.

She could only blame her son for being blind in the past. He did not cherish such a good fiancée. He only tried to win her back when he was about to lose her.

After sending the Shi family away, Su Tang was still in a daze.

Just now, Shi Man’s unintentional “Tangtang” made her heart race. Other than her aunt and uncle, who had doted on her since she was young, no one had ever called her by her nickname so intimately.
