The Big-Shot is Pampered after She Becomes the Villainness

Shi Man saw Shi Mu’s guilt and was even more dissatisfied with Yi Zheng’s meddling. She raised her glass and said coldly, “If you want to stay and drink, I won’t stop you. But if you come to bully my brother, don’t blame me for chasing you out.”

These words were merciless. Yi Zheng narrowed his eyes when he heard this. Everyone thought that he would leave in anger, but he suddenly chuckled and shook his head indifferently. “If you like to drink, I’ll accompany you, but these people have to get lost.”

He glanced meaningfully in the direction of Chen Wei and Jiang Sheng. His cold gaze made them shiver.

Without waiting for Shi Man to speak, Chen Wei immediately nodded desperately like a chick pecking at rice. “Yes, yes, yes. We’ll get lost now. President Yi and Sister Man, drink slowly. I’ll go downstairs to settle the bill. No matter what you order later, it’ll be on my account.”

With that, he brought the few of them out of the private room as if they had been pardoned. His entire body was covered in a cold sweat.

With no one else in the private room, Shi Man immediately lost interest. She put down her wine glass and looked at Yi Zheng beside her. She frowned and asked in confusion, “Do you know what it means to be too little too late?”

Su Tang held her breath and sat in the corner staring at the two of them timidly.

Yi Zheng said indifferently, “I don’t think it’s too late, because what I want is the current you.”

Shi Man subconsciously clenched her fists on her knees, her eyes as dark as an abyss that could never be escaped. “What do you mean?”

“Literally.” Yi Zheng was not prepared to expose his inner thoughts in front of the other two. He changed the topic and said, “Why didn’t you go to Class S?”

From his point of view, with Shi Man’s results, she did not need to fall to Class F at the bottom. He had also taken the opportunity to chat with the principal just now and knew that Shi Man’s entrance results were very good, so he raised this question in surprise.

“Is there a problem if I don’t like it?” Shi Man leaned casually on the sofa and tilted her head to size up the male protagonist in the original book for the first time.

To be fair, this man’s looks were worthy of the male lead’s status.

He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. His thin face coupled with three-dimensional facial features made him look so handsome that even the savvy Shi Man would acknowledge his charm.

However, he was not Shi Man’s type.

She did not like men who were too ruthless. Yi Zheng was a timebomb that could explode if one was not careful. He was the type of male lead that could easily destroy the Shi family.

However, Shi Man had no intention of currying favor with him. On the contrary, she would do something to detoxify Yi Zheng, which was enough to show her stand.

It was impossible for her to submit to Yi Zheng, even though she knew very well that he was the male lead with the aura of a protagonist.

If there really came a day when the Yi family stood against the Shi family again, she would destroy the Yi family at all costs and kill everyone in the Yi family who would pose a threat to the Shi family to protect her brothers and parents.

That was why she was not polite to Yi Zheng at all. It was because she did not care if the other party would really be kind toward her. She was just responding to her conscience to stop making things difficult for the female protagonist and not let her become the fuse to trigger everything.

Yi Zheng heard an unexpected answer and couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows and smile. “It’s really an answer that suits your current style. Then let me congratulate you on getting first place in the cohort. When the Shi family celebrates for you, can you invite me along? Even if we can’t become engaged, we’re still friends who grew up together, right?”

If it were the past Shi Man, she would definitely recall many childhood memories when she heard this. However, Shi Man, who was sitting here now, had no memories of Yi Zheng.

She shook her head unmoved and said, “If you want to participate, you can discuss it with my mother. There’s no need to specially say anything about friendship with me. From the day I broke off the engagement with you, there’s no need for any friendship between us. I hope you can understand.”

Yi Zheng tightened his grip on the wine glass. For some reason, his usually calm and indifferent heart seemed to be suddenly gripped tightly. For the first time in his life, he tasted heartache.

He looked up slightly to hide the hurt in his eyes and nodded slowly. “I understand. I’ll leave first. I’ll leave Tang Zhe behind and get him to drive you back later.”

“No need.” Shi Man still refused without hesitation. “You can take your people away with you. My brother didn’t drink. He can send me home.”

Yi Zheng stood up and nodded. In the end, he did not say anything else and left the private room.

Seeing that the irksome person had finally left, Shi Mu hugged his sister’s shoulder happily and said, “As expected of my baby. You said it so well just now! Let’s ignore that heartless wretched man in the future! Tell him to get lost as far as possible!”

Su Tang also walked over and sat timidly beside Shi Man. She held her arm and shook it gently. “Manman, Brother Yi has left. Why don’t we go back?”
