Chapter 135 - 135 Old Friend

135 Old Friend

Shi Mu, on the other hand, was in a good mood. He smiled and said, “It’s fun without people in the way. Sister, if you want to drink now, I’ll definitely drink with you to my heart’s content.”

Shi Man looked at the worried Su Tang and knew that she might not be used to such a place. She stood up and said indifferently, “Forget it, let’s go home for dinner. Come back with us.”

Su Tang nodded obediently and followed Shi Man out of the private room.

Yuan Yi, who was drinking in the next corner, suddenly stood up and opened the door of the private room.

The classmate behind him couldn’t help but put down his wine glass and stop him. “Brother Yuan, where are you going?”

“I’m bored. I’ll leave first.” Yuan Yi was thinking about Shi Man and was not in the mood to drink with this group of people. After closing the door of the private room, he was about to habitually take out a cigarette from his pocket when he bumped into Shi Man, who walked out at the same time.

“Why are you here!” Yuan Yi took his hand out of his pocket in surprise and completely forgot about smoking. He jogged to her.

He did not expect to meet the person he had been thinking about for the entire day here.

Shi Man raised her eyebrows and recognized him, but she still didn’t remember his name. She could only smile and nod politely. “What a coincidence.”

Yuan Yi immediately smiled foolishly. When he saw the man standing beside Shi Man, he subconsciously released his hostility. However, after seeing his face clearly, he smiled in surprise again. “You’re Brother Shi Mu!”

“You know me?” Shi Mu searched his mind for a long time before his eyes widened in realization. “You’re Yuan Yi?”

“That’s right! Brother Mu, you finally remember me!” Seeing his senior who played with him when he was young, Yuan Yi revealed a rare silly look again.

He had gone to the same kindergarten as Shi Mu in the past. At that time, he had acknowledged Shi Mu as his elder brother. Unfortunately, he was sent overseas by his family to study later. He had just returned to the country this year and had yet to meet his childhood friends.

Unexpectedly, he saw Shi Mu again in such a strange way.

And the girl he had been thinking about was actually Shi Mu’s biological sister!

Yuan Yi was very satisfied with the right decision he had made when he was young. As long as Shi Mu could acknowledge him and help at the critical moment, he would be a big step closer to winning Shi Man.

Shi Mu clearly remembered the times when he was young and ran amok with Yuan Yi. He patted his shoulder excitedly and said, “I didn’t expect the little fatty in the past to become so handsome now. We’re about to go home for dinner. Do you want to join us?”

“Okay!” Yuan Yi immediately nodded in agreement. Then, he blinked and looked at Shi Man playfully. “Where’s my umbrella?”

Shi Man watched the interaction between the two of them expressionlessly. She was going to take out the white umbrella from her backpack and return it to him, but Yuan Yi raised his hand to stop her.

“Forget it. It’s just an umbrella. You don’t have to return it. Just remember to bring it with you often in the future and not catch a cold in the rain.”

He had no intention of letting Shi Man return the umbrella. He suddenly mentioned it now to close the distance between them and let Shi Mu know that he had lent Shi Man the umbrella yesterday.

When Shi Mu heard their conversation, he smiled in understanding. “I was wondering when my sister had such an umbrella. So it’s yours. Thank you so much for yesterday. Otherwise, we would really have been drenched.”

“Brother, why are you being so polite to me?” Yuan Yi hugged Shi Mu’s shoulder and changed his strategy at the last minute. He focused his attention on Shi Mu and was determined to build a good relationship with him. “What delicious food did you make at home? I remember that Brother liked seafood the most when he was young.”

“You even remember this!” Shi Mu’s eyes lit up in excitement. He was still very happy to meet his childhood playmate. “Then I’ll get someone to make some seafood later. Coincidentally, my sister likes it too.”

Yuan Yi glanced at Shi Man, who was following behind him, and said with a smile, “I see. Then I’ll get the butler to send some seafood to your house. Let’s eat together later.”

“You’re a guest. How can I let you spend money?” Shi Mu immediately waved his hand and refused. “Don’t worry and come home with me to eat. We can get together. I heard that you went overseas. Why are you suddenly back?”

“I miss Big Brother.” Yuan Yi pretended to look aggrieved as he stared at Shi Mu.

Shi Mu pushed him away speechlessly. Although he spoke disdainfully, his eyes were filled with smiles. “Don’t disgust me. Speak properly. Otherwise, I’ll punish you to stand at the side and make you watch us eat.”

“Big Brother! You’re too ruthless!” Yuan Yi chimed in and put on an innocent and pitiful expression.

The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked out of the Nightless City side by side. The distance of more than ten years seemed to have disappeared in an instant. Unknowingly, they had returned to the time when they were mischievous and caused trouble together when they were young.

Shi Mu drove and looked at his sister in the backseat through the rearview mirror. He couldn’t help but smile. “Manman, how did you meet Yuan Yi?”
