181 A Woman’s Perfume

Shi Man obediently finished her meal, put down her bowl and chopsticks, and looked at her mother calmly.

Shen Xian put away the smile on her face and looked at Shi Zhong. Taking advantage of the fact that her sons were around, she directly said the outcome of the her discussion with their father last night.

Shi Man listened quietly and suddenly smiled. “You want to persuade me not to agree to him easily and let me delay it for a while more as revenge for his previous attitude, right?”

“Yes, that’s what Mom means.” Shen Xian was very happy that her daughter could understand her unfinished words. She waited for her reaction expectantly.

Shi Man nodded slightly. Facing the probing gazes of the surrounding people, she smiled calmly and said, “I think you’re thinking too much. I won’t agree to marry Yi Zheng. I’ll never marry him and this has nothing to do with revenge and tests.”

Shen Xian could also expect Shi Man to say this. She just wanted to remind her daughter so that she would not suddenly soften and let Yi Zheng succeed easily in the future.

After Shi Man finished eating, she didn’t care what the others thought. She looked down at Su Tang, who was still eating porridge, and said calmly, “I’ll wait for you in the car. Eat slowly.”

“I’m done eating!” Su Tang quickly finished the porridge in her bowl in a few mouthfuls and bowed apologetically to Shen Xian and Shi Zhong to say goodbye. Then, she jogged after Shi Man, who had walked out of the house.

Today, it was Shi Yu’s turn to send the two of them to school. However, Shi Yu came back the last night and reeked of alcohol. Shen Xian was worried about him driving, so she changed it to Shi He for the time being.

Seeing that his sister had already left, Shi He could not taste his food. At this moment, he had an excuse not to eat breakfast. He hurriedly put down his chopsticks, said goodbye to his parents and brothers, and stood up to chase after her.

Shi Mu looked enviously at Shi He, who was so happy that he was about to fly. He couldn’t help but sigh resentfully. “Yesterday, Big Brother didn’t let me hitch a ride because the secretary was still in the car. Today, it was Third Brother who sent her off, and he has a manager to occupy the seat. Will it still be Second Brother tomorrow? Won’t I have to wait another day before I can go to school with Manman?”

Shi Yu looked at his watch and reminded him in amusement, “If you don’t finish eating soon, you’ll be late.”

“Second Brother, why did you drink so much last night? The Guan family even said that you vomited!” Shi Mu looked at his gentle brother at home with a worried expression. He really couldn’t imagine that a person like him would get drunk.

Shi Yu lowered his head, his long eyelashes blocking the emotions in his eyes. “I’m sorry. I won’t do this again.”

“Don’t apologize!” Shi Mu thought that he was doing this because of his words. He quickly waved his hand and said in a panic, “It’s okay. We’re all men. What’s wrong with going out to drink occasionally?”

Shi Zhong coughed lightly and reminded her sternly, “You haven’t graduated and are still a student. You can’t drink outside!”

Shi Mu closed his mouth in embarrassment and looked at his mother for help.

Shen Xian’s heart ached for her son. She asked the chef to cook a bowl of hangover soup for Shi Yu. “Drink this so you won’t feel uncomfortable. Don’t drink so much alcohol in the future. It’s not good for your health.”

“I understand, Mom,” Shi Yu agreed quietly. After drinking the soup, he got up to bid farewell to the two of them and went to work alone.

Shi Mu stared at his back for a long time. When he walked out of the house, he suddenly turned to look at his parents. “When Second Brother came back last night, I helped the Guan family support him. I smelled a woman’s perfume on him.”

“That’s impossible, right?” Shen Xian frowned tightly. She really couldn’t imagine this serious and gentle son of hers doing such a thing. She subconsciously looked at her husband. “Old Shi, did our son make a mistake after he got drunk?”

“Don’t think too much first.” Shi Zhong glared at Shi Mu and said angrily, “Why do you trust him so much? He doesn’t have a dog’s nose. If he’s really so good at sniffing out everything, I’ll send him to the police force tomorrow. He can be of use there.”

“No! I don’t want to suffer!” Shi Mu wailed and refused. He lowered his head and quickly finished the porridge in his bowl. Then, he picked up his bag and rushed out of the house, afraid that his father would really act on it if he was a step late.

Shi Zhong only wanted to scare him. After they left, he continued to comfort his worried wife. “Don’t think too much before the matter is investigated clearly. Moreover, what else can he do when he was drunk last night? Didn’t he come home clean?”

Only then did Shen Xian heave a sigh of relief. She couldn’t help but hold Shi Zhong’s hand and say, “It’s still the Hubby who can comfort me. When will these children make me completely relieved?”

Shi Zhong patted her back in amusement and coaxed, “Alright, alright. Leave it to me. Don’t worry about Shi Yu. I’ll definitely find out.”

“Okay, I’ll leave it to you.” Shen Xian leaned against the man’s broad chest and suddenly felt tired. It was sometimes not a good thing to have too many children. Everyone made her worry.
