“It’s because of his unconditional agreement that this subordinate feels that something is wrong. He doesn’t seem like a person who is willing to help others so easily.” Xiangyi was still a little worried. A person who had never interacted with others before suddenly looked for them? Could it be that he had other motives?
Or it could be like last time with Tengtang Xi. No one would have thought that Tengtang Xi would impersonate Li Chengcheng to take revenge on Mr. Shi and destroy Young Madam. If such a person still existed, then Mr. Shi would really be in danger now.
Especially when the enemy was in the dark and Shi Yuting was in the wide open
But if the situation really happened like last time, could it be… Shi Tiannan?
Xiangyi frowned, becoming increasingly convinced that this could be a possibility.
“Then go and check if this Minister Ke has had any unusual activities recently.” Shi Yuting instructed Xiangyi before the former got into the car.
Xiangyi nodded in acknowledgment. “Yes!”
It was not late when they returned to Shi Mansion. Zuo Weiyi and the others had just finished their dinner.
After coaxing the two babies to sleep, Shen Lanzhi returned to her room.
Shi Nuannuan sat in the quiet living room. Though the TV was switched on, she was not watching it.
She was curled up on the sofa and busy sending messages to Xiangyi, but he had not been replying her at all!
The main door opened with a click and she immediately turned around to look.
She stood up abruptly and rushed to him, peeking behind him. “Brother, didn’t Xiangyi come with you?”
Shi Yuting looked at her. “No.”
“Why?”
He paused. “And why would he come back with me this time?”
Shi Nuannuan paused. He wasn’t wrong.
Xiangyi’s duty was to protect her brother’s safety and deal with all sorts of matters. But since her brother had already returned home, shouldn’t he be quite free? So why didn’t he reply to her messages?
“So he’s also back home now?” Shi Nuannuan asked as Shi Yuting walked up the stairs.
Because he seemed to be very busy recently, he wasn’t at home every time she went to his apartment.
Even when she went at night, he was not at home either.
“No, I left some instructions for him to handle.”
Hearing this, Shi Nuannuan could not help but chase after him. “Brother!”
Shi Yuting looked at the white-as-jade hand that grabbed his. Then, he saw her face that had “lovesick” written all over it, waiting for her to speak.
“Brother, can you not give Xiangyi so many things to do in the future?” She pouted, as if she was dissatisfied with the way Shi Yuting was handling his own employee.
“Give me a reason.” He looked at her.
Shi Nuannuan paused.
Although Xiangyi’s duty was to handle things for her brother, did he have to be busy at night too?
“Uh, the weather is too cold.”
“Huh?”
“That’s right, the weather is cold, Xiangyi will definitely be cold too.”
“So? What does that have to do with me? That’s his duty. Don’t tell me that in the future, I have to look at the weather before deciding whether to let him do it or not?”
Shi Nuannuan turned speechless again.
But still. she still felt sorry for him.
“I didn’t say that. I just… I just didn’t want him to work so late at night!”
“Why?”
“I haven’t seen him for a few days. Every time I go to his office—” As the words were about to come out of her mouth, Shi Nuannuan suddenly stopped.
Although her brother doted on her very much, if he knew that his sister was going over to Xiangyi’s and waiting for him to come back till so late at night, he would still get furious!
