Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After a day, it was already ten oclock at night when s.h.i.+ Man returned to the s.h.i.+ family.

During this period of time, s.h.i.+ Zhong did not know what s.h.i.+ Man was busy with outside. When he saw her enter, he was about to reprimand her, but before he could say anything, he held it in the moment he saw Yi Zheng.

s.h.i.+ Man looked at Yi Zheng in amus.e.m.e.nt. This person had really guessed correctly.

On the way back just now, Yi Zheng said that s.h.i.+ Zhong had been asking him about her whereabouts recently, wanting to know what she was busy with when she was not in the company.

Yi Zheng used the excuse of rebuilding the city to brush it off, but s.h.i.+ Zhong was clearly not satisfied with this answer. At this moment, he looked like he was going to denounce him.

However, since his future son-in-law had personally sent his daughter home, he was too embarra.s.sed to ask where the two of them had gone with a straight face. He could only hold back his anger and ask when there was a chance next time.

Shen Xian had been playing cards with her sisters recently. When she heard that drugs were rampant outside, she was very worried about s.h.i.+ Man and Yi Zhengs safety. After all, the two of them were now the winds howling around the highest peaks. If they were really schemed against, the gains would not make up for the losses.

s.h.i.+ Man took a sip of hot tea and asked casually, Madam Zheng told you, right?

Chief Zheng and s.h.i.+ Zhong were comrades, so Madam Zheng interacted with Shen Xian a lot. The two of them hit it off at first sight and always agreed to play cards at home.

Shen Xian blinked in surprise and smiled. Our Manman is smart. Its really as you said. Its been a long time since you saw your Aunt Chi, right?

Its been a while, s.h.i.+ Man said obediently as she put down her teacup.

Aunt Chi was Madam Zhengs original surname. However, her husbands official position was too high, so everyone was more inclined to call her Madam Zheng.

It was obvious that the police station would not let down its guard against this drug proliferation incident. s.h.i.+ Man wanted to ask Auntie Chi about the progress of the police stations investigation, but she had not made time.

Your Aunt Chi is still thinking about you. She even asked me today how the preparations for your engagement party with Yi Zheng are going. She said that she would give you a big gift to celebrate!

At the thought that her daughter had finally found a good home, Shen Xian could not hide the joy on her face.

Even s.h.i.+ Zhongs expression softened.

Our engagement ceremony is almost ready. s.h.i.+ Man lowered her eyes and frowned. Although she said that, there was no sign of relief on her face.

She did not want to delay the marriage, but now that the mole had not been found, she was indeed not in the mood to hold an engagement ceremony.

At the end of the day, she didnt take marriage too seriously.

She felt that she and Yi Zheng were in a good state now. There were no secrets between the two of them. They could tell each other anything. When they were busy, they would be busy. When they were free, they would gather for a date.

s.h.i.+ Zhong sensitively heard the unusual meaning in her tone, and his expression, which had just eased up, tensed up again. Since its ready, theres nothing to delay anymore. The invitations have all been prepared today and the date has been set long ago. Its next Sat.u.r.day. Go with your mother to see the engagement gown tomorrow. Dont run around for no reason!

Shen Xian gently nudged his arm. He was urging her to get married in such a hurry. It was as if his precious daughter could not get married off.

s.h.i.+ Zhong sighed and explained, I dont want to cause any more trouble, right? Let the two of them get engaged first and settle the matter completely. When the time comes, 1 wont rush them to get married. Well talk about it after Manman graduates.

Shen Xian snorted unhappily and turned to look at her daughter. She asked gently, Manman, do you have any other concerns? Yi Zheng happens to be here today. If theres anything, we can discuss it directly.

Yi Zheng also looked sideways at her without blinking, waiting for her answer.

Their seriousness really made s.h.i.+ Man unable to say anything about delaying. She could only smile and say, 1 have nothing to worry about. Just hold the engagement ceremony as scheduled.

As soon as she finished speaking, s.h.i.+ Man felt the straightened back of the person beside her suddenly relax, and her heart rippled.

Forget it. Anyway, she knew that she liked him. There was nothing wrong with revealing their relations.h.i.+p to the public and getting engaged with everyones blessings!

This matter came to an end for the time being. s.h.i.+ Man even took the initiative to mention that she would take the time to visit the Zheng family tomorrow. Shen Xian readily agreed to bring her along tomorrow. Coincidentally, it was the weekend tomorrow, and Chief Zheng would be resting at home.

Seeing that it was getting late, Yi Zheng stood up and bade farewell. Before he left, he deliberately lowered his voice and whispered in s.h.i.+ Mans ear, Be careful. He even quietly held her hand before leaving reluctantly.

Shen Xian didnt hear what he said just now, but when she saw the two children secretly holding hands, she felt a strong sweetness in her heart. She happily said to ger husbands ear. Look, our Manman and Yi Zheng are especially compatible!

s.h.i.+ Zhong looked at Yi Zhengs back with a smile, his eyes filled with satisfaction for his future son-in-law..
