Yi Zheng chased after her from behind and walked to her side. “I’ll go with you,” he said softly.
He did not say anything else and did not even ask for the reason. It was as if he was willing to accompany Shi Man no matter what she wanted to do.
Shi Man looked at him, pursed her lips, and hurriedly told Sean to hide with the Immaculate people first. Then, she hung up and said with an unnatural expression, “This time, I might cause you trouble. You should go home first. I’ll compensate you with a movie next time.”
Yi Zheng grabbed her arm indifferently and walked out. “If something happens to you, you’ll cause me trouble. What’s this now?”
Shi Man looked at his back in a daze. A scorching heat suddenly flowed through her heart, making her heart constrict. Even she, who was sharp-tongued, could not find a reason to persuade him.
Yi Zheng turned his head slightly and saw her helpless expression from the corner of his eye. The corners of his lips curled up slightly.
The two of them drove to the amusement park and realized how bold those people were.
This piece of land was approved by the higher-ups for the Wang family to host. The amusement park that was supposed to be built could only stop work halfway because of the sudden transfer of land, but many areas had been built.
However, the current amusement park could only be described as a ruin. Broken stones were everywhere, and the flying sand stained the ice and snow on the ground. All kinds of equipment had also fallen to the ground, and some were even to the point of being unable to be reused.
Shi Man frowned and walked around the entire place. She took a deep breath and barely suppressed her anger.
Yi Zheng’s expression was also extremely ugly. The construction here had not been completed, so there were no surveillance cameras installed at all. If he wanted to check, he could only check from the surveillance cameras at the nearby streets.
“This does look like the Wang family.”
He sneered and pulled Shi Man away from this dangerous place. He casually found a cafeteria and sat down.
Shi Man frowned in confusion. “I’m not done investigating.”
“Let’s eat first.” Yi Zheng naturally ordered a few dishes according to her taste.
Just now, in order to catch up with the last screening of Shi He’s movie, the two of them had not had the time to eat. In the end, they had not seen the movie and were still hungry.
Shi Man was not in the mood to eat at all. Such a big thing had happened in that place, and the impact would quickly spread. If someone made a big deal out of it, she would probably have to hand over the fat piece of pie she had just eaten.
Yi Zheng unhurriedly refilled her cup of hot tea. “Actually, there’s nothing to investigate. Or do you already have a guess in your heart and just want to take the opportunity to verify it?”
Shi Man sighed and was about to speak when Yi Zheng stopped her.
Her cold fingers pressed against her lips. She blinked in a daze and pushed his hand away. She said angrily, “Don’t interrupt me.”
Yi Zheng smiled helplessly. “Missy, you’ve already sighed at least three times when you saw me in the afternoon. Is being with me so worriesome? Then I really should study hard how to make my girlfriend happy at all times.”
Shi Man was amused by his pitiful tone, and her shoulders gradually relaxed. “I’m not sighing because of you. What arc you worried about?”
Yi Zheng raised his eyebrows and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips.
Shi Man immediately couldn’t react. She retorted with a flushed face, “Who’s your girlfriend? Don’t spout nonsense!”
Yi Zheng pursed his lips and chuckled. Being glared at by her, he quickly said seriously, “Alright, let’s get down to business. I know what you’re thinking. Don’t you think the Wang family will attack so quickly? The person who did this shouldn’t be trying to get this piece of land. With the Fang family’s example, no one dares to snatch food from the Shi family.”
Shi Man’s interest was piqued by his analysis. She smiled evilly and said, “That might not be the case. I know someone who dares to pull a beard from the mouth of a tiger.”
Yi Zheng lowered his eyes and smiled faintly. When he looked up again, the gentleness in the depths of his eyes turned into a deep pool. “Do I still need to snatch it? If you’re willing, I’m willing to share everything with you. If you say that you’re willing to marry me, I’m willing to give my life to you.”
Shi Man suddenly felt her teeth ache. She opened her mouth to say something to mock him, but she couldn’t speak no matter what.
Coincidentally, the waiter came over to serve the dishes. She hurriedly looked away and pretended to help the waiter serve the dishes in an attempt to change the topic.
After the waiter left, she coughed dryly to hide her embarrassment. “I think your analysis was right just now. I really don’t think the Wang family did it, but as for who the mastermind is, there are too few clues now. I can’t guess.”
Yi Zheng raised his eyebrows and did not expose her intentions. He said, “Actually, it’s easy to guess. I roughly know who it is.”
Shi Man immediately couldn’t care less about eating. She widened her eyes in shock and asked, “Who is it?”
A sharp cold glint flashed across Yi Zheng’s eyes. “Nighthawk’s men.”
At that moment, a loud bang suddenly came from the Nighthawk headquarters office. The secretary ran out in fear, and only the Zhu brothers were left in the room..
