“Brother, what’s wrong?” s.h.i.+ Man looked at the stunned s.h.i.+ Mu in surprise. She subconsciously thought that he had been too busy and tired recently. She sighed deeply and said, “Go back to your room and rest after dinner. If you need any help, feel free to look for me.”

s.h.i.+ Mu shook his head quickly and denied decisively, “It’s not because of this, Sister. 1 have something to ask you.”

“What?” s.h.i.+ Man stood still, curious about his surprised and hopeless expression.

Then, s.h.i.+ Mu’s Adam’s apple bobbed nervously. He couldn’t help but say, “Yi Zheng, ah, it’s Brother-in-law! Isn’t he coming home for dinner tonight? It’s not good for him to be busy in the company and not pay attention to his health.”

s.h.i.+ Man frowned curiously.

Since when did s.h.i.+ Mu care about Yi Zheng? Shouldn’t he be wis.h.i.+ng that Yi Zheng would move away as soon as possible?

“He’ll be back later today. He has to deal with the doc.u.ments acc.u.mulated at the company,” s.h.i.+ Man replied calmly. Seeing her brother’s hesitant look, she couldn’t help but ask him, “Do you have something to ask him recently?”

“No.” s.h.i.+ Mu blinked at her innocently. Then, he realized that his words were a little strange. He coughed awkwardly and explained, “I was thinking that if Brother-in-law doesn’t pay attention to his body, how can he take care of you for us for the rest of your life? Don’t you think so?”

“Brother-in-law?” s.h.i.+ Man sized him up suspiciously.

s.h.i.+ Mu felt even more uneasy under her obvious distrust. He did not even know where to place his hands.

He quickly stole a glance at Bai Xue, who was looking over with her head tilted. His face instantly turned red as he stammered, “There’s nothing else! I’m going down to eat!”

s.h.i.+ Man stared at his back thoughtfully, preparing to find time to investigate what her brother had been doing recently.

She was worried that her brother had encountered something in the company and was too embarra.s.sed to take the initiative to tell her. That was why he changed the topic and dragged Yi Zheng into it.

However, soon, s.h.i.+ Man realized that not only did her brother’s abnormality not show any signs of stopping, but it also intensified.

During the meal, s.h.i.+ Mu was abnormal. He insisted on sitting between her and Bai Xue and forcefully separated the two of them. He even looked around fawningly. It was obvious that he did not want to offend either party and wanted to please them.

s.h.i.+ Man was not uncomfortable with this.

In her heart, everyone who was sitting and eating together was a family member. She could sit next to anyone, but she didn’t know if Bai Xue would be used to it.

She subconsciously looked to her side and saw that Bai Xue was indeed rejecting s.h.i.+ Mu’s action of scooping soup for her with a troubled expression.

s.h.i.+ Mu was so anxious that a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. He was so attentive that he seemed to have become a different person.

Although he was usually quite good to Bai Xue, anyone could tell that he was abnormal tonight.

s.h.i.+ Man frowned and took the soup bowl from s.h.i.+ Mu’s hand. She picked up the onions inside expressionlessly and threw them into the trash can. “Brother, Xue doesn’t eat these. Don’t forget that next time.”

With that, she placed the soup bowl in front of Bai Xue.

Bai Xue, who had been rejecting s.h.i.+ Mu just now, suddenly smiled sweetly at s.h.i.+ Man. “Thank you for remembering.”

“You’re welcome.” s.h.i.+ Man smiled and turned to continue eating.

s.h.i.+ Mu was caught in the middle and could not calm down. He looked at s.h.i.+ Man, who had a calm expression, and then at Bai Xue, whose face was red. His heart suddenly felt like it had been punched.

The delicious food in front of him suddenly didn’t taste good. He put down his chopsticks and looked a little pained. “I’m full. I’ll go back and sleep first.”

“Xiao Mu, is this all you can eat?” Shen Xian was about to stop her son when s.h.i.+ Man suddenly grabbed her mother’s arm and shook her head at her.

There was no light in the dim room. Even the moonlight was blocked by the curtains, preventing it from poking its head in.

s.h.i.+ Mu lay on the bed in a daze and looked at the darkness above his head. He could not see anything clearly, but he was in a daze.

Just now, Bai Xue’s different reaction to s.h.i.+ Man made him feel very suffocated.

He knew that Bai Xue did not like him. If she had not been left in the s.h.i.+ family by s.h.i.+ Man, she might not have wanted to see him again.

She had aborted a child for him.

That was their child.

It was something he didn’t want.

But now, s.h.i.+ Mu only felt regret.

Even though he did not do it willingly that night, his heart seemed to have been left behind on that charming night.

If he lost his heart, it would not be so easy to take it back. Even if she might not want him at all.

s.h.i.+ Mu turned around in frustration and looked at the closed door expressionlessly. His heart was still filled with frustration.

He was unwilling to confirm what kind of feelings Bai Xue had for s.h.i.+ Man, but he was sure of one thing. Bai Xue’s heart was indeed not with him.

Thinking of this, s.h.i.+ Mu closed his eyes in pain. The next second, he heard someone knocking on the door from outside..
