Yi Zheng frowned in disgust, but when he turned to face Shi Man, his expression became gentle and doting again. “Are you done eating?”

Shi Man put on her coat disinterestedly. “The flies here are too noisy. 1 haven’t eaten well yet. Let’s eat at another restaurant.”

Of course, Yi Zheng agreed. He personally fastened the buttons on her coat and held her hand like he was leading a doll that he was afraid of losing.

Song Zhi watched the two of them leave in a daze. She gritted her teeth in hatred, but there was nothing she could do.

She had appeared several times when Shi Man was targeted. Song Zhi had already been completely excluded by Yi Zheng. Now, even if she said something, Yi Zheng would definitely not pity Song Zhi because of the past relationship between the two families.

At the other table, the girl looked at her legs lazily. As she lazily touched up her makeup, she mocked, “So you’re in a hurry to stick your face to his cold butt. You still dare to brag outside that Yi Zheng is your cousin. Seeing him today, he’s really your good cousin!”

Song Zhi stomped her feet in shame and anger, her entire body trembling with anger. “That’s still better than you. You’re just a pheasant who relied on climbing into a man’s bed to exchange for status!”

When the girl heard her words, she immediately placed the makeup mirror in her hand on the dining table and said coldly, “Alright, so that’s what your Song family thinks of me. Then why are you still trying to get close to me? If you have the ability, go find your cousin!”

The Song family had a large business deal on their hands recently, but they urgently needed the approval of the higher-ups. The girl in front of them, Lan Jie, happened to be the mistress of the person-in-charge. With her asking, the Song family might be able to have a much smoother approval process.

But now that Song Zhi had made a scene, the path of relying on Lan Jie had been completely blocked.

She fell onto the sofa dispiritedly and stared blankly at the menu in front of her.

The waiter watched the entire process and carefully came over. “Miss, do you still want to order?”

Song Zhi was just worried that she had nowhere to vent her anger. At this moment, she completely treated the waiter as a punching bag and smashed the porcelain bowl. “You only know how to take orders! Can’t you see that I’m annoyed!”

Her voice was not soft, and the customers coming and going in the restaurant looked over accusingly.

Although this restaurant was not absolutely high-end, it was not a place that any street shrew could afford. Most of the customers here were looking for a quiet place to talk to people. Now that they were suddenly disturbed by her, they looked at her with disgust.

Only then did Song Zhi realize how much embarrassment she had caused herself just now. She hurriedly took out a banknote from her bag and placed it on the table. Then, she covered her face and ran out of the place, not noticing that a playful gaze had been paying attention to the movements here.

After Shi Man and Yi Zheng finished eating, she wanted to do something serious.

Just now, they had only taken a quick look at the amusement park and did not find anything unusual. However, in order not to miss any details, she still wanted to go to the event location to investigate carefully.

Yi Zheng pointed at the watch on his wrist in disapproval and said seriously, “Miss Shi, it’s almost dark. You won’t be able to see clearly even if you go.”

Shi Man choked for a moment and glanced at him fiercely.

Who was the reason why she had been delayed until now?

Yi Zheng did not feel guilty at all. He stuffed her into the front passenger seat and was about to send her home.

Shi Man pulled a long face and turned around righteously. “As you said, the person who smashed the amusement park is very likely Nighthawk. If I can’t find evidence of the other party quickly, the Shi family might be their primary target once they know that I’m the boss of Immaculate.”

Yi Zheng turned on the air conditioner and looked at her calmly and coldly. “Do you need evidence?”

Shi Man was slightly stunned. “What do you mean? Without evidence, if we suspect wrongly, won’t we be playing into that person’s hands?”

Yi Zheng sneered and turned the car into the vast sea of cars. “If I have to find evidence for everything before taking action, many things will be left unsettled. No matter who it is, as long as we have doubts, we’ll directly take out the culprit. This way, no one will dare to stand up again.”

Shi Man was shocked. Although Hellgate and Nighthawk were not as good as Blood Oath, they were still two old establishments with deep foundations and intertwined relationships. How could it be easy to get rid of them?

Yi Zheng didn’t hear the voice beside him for a long time. He turned the steering wheel with one hand and used the other to rub her head. “Are you afraid?”

“No.” Shi Man frowned and fell into deep thought. She pursed her lips tightly. “I just don’t want to implicate my family.”

In the past, she could walk freely and have nothing to worry about. She would also choose to kill all the enemies who went against her like Yi Zheng had just said.

However, it was different now. The Shi family was a family that had been tragically destroyed in the book. It was hard to guarantee that she would not repeat the same mistake because of her arrogance.

If she really let the Shi family walk toward the original ending of the novel again because of her emotions, she would never be at ease even if she died.

Yi Zheng knew her concerns. The corners of his mouth curled up as he recommended himself briskly. “If you’re worried, you can leave this matter to me..”
