After this incident, Wen Xiu coaxed and pestered Yi Long to get Shi Man’s contact information and even her home address.
Sometimes, when Shi Man went out to class in the morning, she would encounter Wen Xiu waiting at the door. She did not mention going in and just stood at the door kicking the gravel on the ground in boredom. Then, she took the opportunity to peek at Shi He while talking to Shi Man.
Just like that, she kept standing guard outside the Shi family’s house under the pretext of coming to see Shi Man. She dragged her way to Shi Man’s school for the holidays and did not add Shi He’s contact number.
If Wen Xiu did not mention it herself, Shi Man naturally would not mention it either. After all, Shi He was now passionate with Lin Yue in the company. The two of them had already reached the ambiguous stage.
On this day, Shi Man went out and saw Wen Xiu from afar.
Shen Xian hesitated and tugged at Shi Man’s arm. “Why don’t we invite her in for a seat? Why do we keep letting her wait outside?”
Shi Man shook her head and said, “No need. If she wants to go in, she’ll say it herself.”
Shi Man knew Wen Xiu very well.
Back then, when she was in a foreign country, she could come back from thousands of miles away just to see Yi Zheng. If she couldn’t see him once, she would come a few more times. She had such perseverance. If she wanted to enter, she would have knocked on the door long ago.
The reason why she had been hesitating at the door was because she had not confirmed her feelings.
Moreover, even if she wanted to invite him, she was not the one who invited him.
The drug problem in the black market had not been investigated yet. Shi Man did not have time to accompany her here. After rushing out and getting into the car, she called Sean to ask about the arrival of the herbs.
The herbs needed to suppress the relapse of the drug addiction were not easy to obtain. Even if ordinary people obtained them, they would not use them. However, in front of Shi Man, these were not difficult.
On the other end of the phone, Sean gave her a satisfactory answer. “Boss, the things have arrived. Can we start the next stage of treatment today?”
“Yes.” Shi Man stepped on the accelerator and drove out of the garage, not noticing Wen Xiu , who was chasing after her.
The car’s acceleration kicked up a cloud of dust on the ground. Smelling the fragrance, she coughed and covered her mouth. Just as she felt uncomfortable in her eyes, a handkerchief was suddenly handed to her.
Wen Xiu narrowed her eyes and looked up along the arm. She saw Shi He’s smiling face.
“You’re actually not at work yet?” Wen Xiu stammered as she took the handkerchief. Her face was as red as a ripe apple as she looked cute and pitiful.
“Not yet. Are you waiting for my sister?” Shi He naturally apologized for Shi Man. “She probably didn’t notice you when she was driving just now. Didn’t you greet her before you came?”
“No.” Wen Xiu shook her head gently. Seeing her idol, who was often seen on television, standing in front of her, her heart skipped a beat. “You’re Shi He, right? I’ve seen you on television a few times!”
“You know me?” Shi He looked a little surprised. Then, he nodded and said, “I’m Shi He. Thank you for watching my television drama.”
Wen Xiu actually regretted what she said just now, but she did not expect Shi He to not only not care, but also praise her according to her words. Immediately, Wen Xiu was flattered and said, “I think it’s quite good! 1 heard that you founded your own company. Will you still act in television dramas in the future?”
She asked carefully and her tone was uncertain.
Shi He was stunned for a moment before replying with a smile, “Of course, I’ll have to trouble you to support me when the time comes.”
“Not really! Can you give me an autograph?” Wen Xiu asked shamelessly.
Of course, Shi He agreed.
Only then did Wen Xiu realize that she had accidentally blurted out what she was thinking just now. She almost bit her tongue off. As she searched in her backpack for the notebook and pen she had prepared, she said casually, “I’m asking this for my friend. My friend likes you very much.”
“Yes.” Shi He listened to her quietly. The tip of his pen scratched on the page and he quickly signed his name.
Wen Xiu hugged the book in her arms, and the smile on her lips subconsciously widened. “Thank you!”
She looked at the tall and handsome man in front of her and was about to say something when a car suddenly stopped behind them.
Wen Xiu clearly saw that the moment Shi He saw the car, the gentle smile on his face changed again, switching to an expression of care and surprise.
He strode to the back of the car and personally opened the car door for the person inside. He carefully protected that person’s head and said in a tone that could drown people, “You’re finally here. My mother specially got someone to make breakfast according to your taste. She was just waiting for you.”
Wen Xiu widened her eyes curiously and stared straight at them.
A woman with long curly hair and a blue and white dress slowly got out of the car and stood in front of Shihe with a shy blush on her face. “Will 1 disturb Auntie by coming to the house?”
“How could that be?” Shi He smiled to dispel her concerns. He noted Shen Xian’s excited reaction when she heard that she was coming.
Lin Yue couldn’t help but purse her lips and smile. She turned her head slightly and saw the petrified girl beside her. She looked at Shi He in shock.. “This is?”
