“I’ll get Tang Zhe to buy it.” Yi Zheng stubbornly pulled her to his side and turned to look firmly at the old man lying on the hospital bed. “Big Grandpa, you can say it here. There’s no need to deliberately hide it from Shi Man.”

“You unfilial son!” Yi Ming was so angry that his eyes widened, and even his pale face turned a little red. He raised his hand, pointed at him, and reprimanded him sternly, “Do you think you can look down on me as an elder just because you’re in charge of the Yi family now?”

“I never thought that way. You’re the most senior elder in the family. 1 respect you and my parents, but the fact that you forced my parents today was not wise. I’m an adult man with the ability to act. 1 can’t just let it be.”

Yi Zheng’s words were powerful and confident.

Even Yi Che, who was carefully reducing his presence, could not help but exclaim. After being glared at by Yi Ming, he quickly lowered his head quietly.

Yi Long also looked at Yi Ming with a troubled expression. “Uncle, we can agree to your other requests, but the engagement of the two children is their own wish. There’s really no need for us to stop them.”

“Don’t forget, 1 raised you myself!” Yi Ming took off his oxygen mask angrily and threw it aside. He pointed at the tip of Yi Long’s nose while panting. “Are you trying to anger me to death? Your father has already left. Can’t my words count?!”

“But why don’t you agree to this marriage?” Yi Long hurriedly supported her and asked the deepest doubts in her heart.

Yi Ming’s gloomy and vicious gaze slowly swept across Shi Man and finally landed on Yi Long. His old and rough fingers were like a tree branch that was about to wither as he grabbed his wrist tightly. “The Shi family is not the best choice. Although your families have been close all these years, don’t forget what kind of business the Yi family secretly does!”

Yi Long widened his eyes slightly. His wrist was suddenly tightened by him, and his fingertips turned cold. “No, even if Shi Zhong knows what we do, he won’t do anything. We’ve known each other for many years and are family friends. He won’t do anything to us.”

“Why are you so naive?” Yi Ming lowered his voice and looked at Shi Man with a sinister gaze. “This little girl is not simple. Think about her changes. What was she like in the past? Now, she looks like a completely different person. How do you know that this is not the Shi family’s scheme? Can you guarantee that the Shi family has no other intentions for this marriage?”

“Big Grandpa.” Yi Zheng frowned and vaguely heard what he had said to his father just now. He had roughly guessed those whispers in his heart, so he became even more calm and composed. “You’re totally overthinking. On the contrary, only the Shi family can help us continue to gain a foothold. I don’t think there’s a better choice than her.”

Yi Ming’s eyes widened in anger, and even the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were flattened. “Did she drug you with some bewitching potion?! You have no right to interrupt me when I’m talking to your father!”

Shi Man turned her head slightly and looked at him playfully. She lowered her voice and whispered into his ear, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll misunderstand?” “Then will you misunderstand me?” Yi Zheng asked honestly, his sparkling eyes filled with smiles.

Shi Man deliberately pretended to think seriously and shook her head with a smile. “No, because compared to me helping you, you seem to help me more.”

“At least you still have a conscience.” The smile in Yi Zheng’s eyes deepened. If not for the fact that there were elders present, he really wanted to pull this obedient little girl into his arms and reward her for her trust in him.

Yi Ming looked at the two of them biting their ears as if no one was around and was so angry that his face turned green. He held his breath in his throat and said in a hoa.r.s.e and angry voice, “Yi Long, do you still have any influence over your own son? If you can’t, I’ll invite the elders of the Yi family over!”

“Uncle, I can’t go back on my word now.” Yi Long’s att.i.tude was also very firm.

He had long decided that Shi Man would be his daughter-in-law. He was definitely unwilling to go back on his word just because of Yi Ming’s threats. If he offended his future in-laws, would he have a good time?

Lu Xiang helped the Old Master lean against the head of the bed to rest. She carefully poured a cup of hot tea and handed it over. She advised gently, “Uncle, Manman is smart and capable. She can preside over the reconstruction of the city at such a young age and is very smart. You can try to get to know her.”

Other than Yi Che, who had been silent in the room, everyone else was speaking up for Shi Man.

Seeing that this matter could not be dissuaded, Yi Ming’s turbid eyes darted back and forth, and his expression softened a little. He pondered for a moment and said, “Alright, since you all say so, 1 can’t force you anymore. However, Xiaoxiang is right. 1 should get to know her before making a decision.”

“You mean…” An ominous feeling suddenly arose in Yi Long’s heart.

Sure enough, he made an unreasonable request right on the heels of that. “In the future, Shi Man has to see me every morning and night. If she can last a hundred days, 1’11 agree to their engagement..”
