It was not difficult to meet Yi Ming, but no one could guarantee that Yi Ming would not do anything to Shi Man.

Moreover, Shi Man was currently working multiple jobs. Not only did she have to be busy with the student union in school, but she also had to complete her studies. She usually had to go to the company. She was already too busy. Now that she had to come to the hospital in the mornings and evenings, she was really unable to do anything.

Yi Zheng refused on behalf of Shi Man without thinking. “No, Big Grandpa. Manman has her own study mission and work. If you want to see her, I can take the time to come over and see you with her.”

“Yi Zheng, it seems like you want to do this the hard way!” Yi Ming punched the bed frame angrily and said fiercely, “I’ve already given in on account of your father. If this little girl can’t even be so filial to her elders, what right does she have to be your wife?”

Yi Zheng frowned and retorted coldly, “Manman won’t marry me in the future to be our nanny, let alone a nurse for you. If you need me, I can hire the best nurse for you, but Manman has her own things to do like me. She can’t do such a thing.”

Yi Ming was so angry that the whites of his eyes were bloodshot. The humiliation of being suppressed by Yi Zheng returned, and his hands and feet were cold. “Are you trying to anger me to death? If 1 die, what benefits do you think you have? The heavens are watching! Your biological grandfather is watching you from above!”

Yi Zheng pursed his lips tightly and frowned.

He still wanted to say something, but Shi Man had already reached out to stop him. She looked calmly at Yi Ming, who was pretending to be old and sick on the bed. “Alright, 1 promise you that as long as 1 persist for a hundred days, you won’t interfere in Yi Zheng’s matters, right?”

Yi Long turned to look at her in disbelief. He clearly did not want Shi Man to agree to such a ridiculous request.

However, Yi Ming would not give him this chance. Seeing Shi Man jump into the trap he had set, how could he be willing to let Shi Man get away?

Yi Ming hurriedly narrowed his muddy old eyes and vowed, “Yes, your fate as well as Yi Zheng’s fate is in your hands now.”

“Alright, in that case, I’ll come tomorrow morning.” Shi Man agreed surprisingly readily.

Yi Ming was slightly stunned, but joy quickly appeared in his eyes. “Alright, you said it. If you can’t hold on, don’t blame me for forcing Yi Long to go back on his word.”

Yi Zheng looked over with disapproval. He was about to persuade Shi Man to reconsider, but he was stunned by the determination in her eyes and could not speak for a long time.

Yi Ming did not expect the matter to be finalized so quickly. He was overjoyed, but when he thought of the next plan, he suppressed the smile on his face and lay back on the bed calmly.

Seeing that he was fine, Shi Man turned around and left the ward. Yi Zheng quickly followed.

When the two of them walked out of the hospital, Yi Zheng grabbed her arm and asked worriedly, “Were you angry just now?”

“I’m not angry.” Shi Man curled her lips playfully and smiled. “If your eldest grandfather wants to test me, then tell him to come at me. Do you think I’m afraid of him?”

“You don’t know, he…” It was obviously not good for a junior to speak ill of an elder behind his back, but in order to prevent Shi Man from jumping into the fire pit, Yi Zheng explained with a serious expression,” Big Grandpa was infamous for being vicious among his peers back then. Back then, when my uncle wanted to get married, he tortured him. 1 don’t want you to suffer from him for no reason.”

“Why are you so sure that i’ll be wronged?” Shi Man retracted her arm indifferently and walked down the steps at the hospital entrance. “Alright, don’t worry. I can handle it. If you’re not eating, I’ll go home.”

Yi Zheng had no choice. He sighed and chased after her. “Alright, I’ll come with you tomorrow morning.”

“Don’t. I’ll be fine on my own.” Shi Man smiled mysteriously. “I won’t be able to perform well with you at the scene.”

Yi Zheng frowned and didn’t say anything. On the way to work the next day, he was still a little worried and asked the chauffeur to change directions to the hospital.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the elevator, he heard a noisy discussion in the corridor, followed by Yi Ming’s roar right on the heels of that.

Yi Zheng’s heart tightened. He quickened his pace and pushed through the crowd to walk over. He saw Shi Man standing at the door of the ward with an innocent expression. She blinked and said pitifully, “Big Grandpa, didn’t you ask me to come and see you earlier? Why are you chasing me away now?”

In the ward, Yi Ming smashed the cup fiercely. His hands trembled as he said angrily, “Get lost! Don’t disturb me here!”

After saying that, he lost his breath because he had shouted too loudly just now. He held his stomach and bent over to cough.

Yi Zheng looked at the scene in front of him in shock. Just as he was about to go in and see the situation inside, Shi Man suddenly grabbed his arm. “Let’s go.. Aren’t you going to work? Why are you here?”
