The Big-Shot is Pampered after She Becomes the Villainness

159 Acting Together

Shi Man estimated the time since the last time she cooked for him. Actually, Shi He’s restraint was already very good. According to her calculations, he should have been unable to keep himself from looking for her.

When they arrived at the kitchen, Shi Man opened the fridge and picked out a few vegetables that she needed. Shi He took the initiative to help wash the vegetables, so Shi Man let him be.

She skillfully brewed a pot of fragrant hot soup step by step. When the soup was thick, Shi Mu did not disappoint and scurried downstairs. He cried out accusingly, “Third Brother, you’re too mean. Sister actually didn’t call me when she was cooking!”

“I thought you were already asleep.” Shi He rolled his eyes and moved to the side, avoiding Shi Mu’s hand on his shoulder in disdain.

Shi Mu secretly made a face at him and ignored Shi He, who was always unforgiving with his words. He hugged Shi Man’s arm and said, “What are you making? Why does it smell so good?”

Shi Man retracted her arm expressionlessly and opened the pot lid for him to see. “Do you want winter melon soup?”

“Yes!” Shi Mu immediately beamed. “Winter melon soup is delicious. Now that the weather is getting colder, it’s suitable for drinking winter melon soup.”

With that, he seemed to smell something that didn’t belong in his house again. He wrinkled his nose and sniffed gently.

Shi Man calmly distanced herself from him and sat down on the other side of the dining table, slowly drinking the tea in her hand.

After the soup was boiled, Shi Mu’s attention was completely diverted. He took the initiative to take on the task of scooping the soup and scooped a bowl for himself and Shi Man.

Shi He slammed the table angrily and frowned anxiously. “Where’s mine? Why didn’t you get me some?”

Shi Mu raised his head proudly and took a big sip of the soup. He narrowed his eyes in enjoyment and said, “The soup is in the kitchen. Third Brother, help yourself.”

Shi He glared at him fiercely. “Very good, just you wait!”

Shi Man smiled and lowered her head to drink the soup. She was actually a little hungry, but she was not used to eating too much at night. One bowl was enough. She got up and wanted to return to her room to wash up and rest.

Shi Mu stared at her back reluctantly. “Sister! Brother will send you to school tomorrow morning!”

Shi Man did not speak. She gestured behind her and walked back upstairs without stopping.

The next day, during the lunch break, Shi Man quietly slipped out of school and found the hiding place of Sean and the others according to the map.

Last night, they finally shook off the people from Hellgate who were following them and bumped into the subordinates of Blood Devourer.

Sean saw their identities and knew that these people were very likely sent by Yi Zheng to receive them. He was overjoyed and followed them.

Yi Zheng sent his subordinates to find a hotel they owned for them to stay in. He also instructed them to be careful to avoid suspicious people when they went out. After all, they were people who had revealed their true colors in front of Hellgate.

Sean knew the severity of the matter and did not want to cause trouble for his boss. He nodded repeatedly and agreed.

After Blood Devourer’s private doctor bandaged their wounds, the few of them leisurely stayed in the hotel to enjoy life as though they were in retirement.

Sean was afraid that Shi Man would be worried about them, so he ran to the Shi family overnight to send her a letter. Unexpectedly, Shi Man did not return until late at night. He could not help but be a little worried that something would happen to her in Hellgate.

Even though his boss’s figure was captivating and her gunmanship was godlike, she was still alone after all. There were hundreds of people in Hellgate who were famous based on their skills. It was obvious how dangerous it was for Shi Man to enter the lion’s den alone.

It was not until Shi Man appeared in front of them unharmed that Sean and the others were completely relieved. They could not help but praise Shi Man. “Boss, you’re good! What did you gain last night?”

Shi Man was led to a chair and sat down. She drank the tea they had brewed and said calmly, “I took a job for you.”

“Huh?” Sean did not expect her to be talking about this. He asked curiously, “What job, Boss?”

Shi Man put down her teacup and a trace of mischief flashed across her eyes. “Fight me.”

“What!” They staggered and almost fell to the ground. Sean was so shocked that he almost knelt down for her. “Boss, did we do something wrong? You can just say it. We will definitely change!”

What a joke! On the first day Shi Man came to their base, she beat them up. At that time, she still held back, so they were used as warm-up tools. If Shi Man really used all her strength, they would probably lose their arms and legs!

Shi Man looked at their expressions in amusement and raised her eyebrows playfully. “What are you afraid of? Didn’t I ask you to train according to my method? It’s time for me to check the results.”

Sean and the others looked at each other and felt that they had to kneel down and kowtow a few times to escape.

Shi Man looked at the time, put away her teasing mood, and briefly told them the whole story.

Sean was relieved. So his boss wanted them to cooperate in an act!

Wasn’t that easy? They were already used to acting!
