Chapter 4: 4

Beauty Shedding Tears

Lin Shu thought about it all night, and finally came up with an excellent solution.

She stayed up all night with excitement, and woke up the next morning with a dark circles under her eyes.

Shen Man made breakfast in the kitchen, cooking a simple lean meat porridge and frying two eggs.

She brought the breakfast to the table and shouted towards Lin Shu’s room, “Come out for breakfast.”

Lin Shu was putting on makeup in her room with a mirror. She was in a rush, smearing concealer on her face.

Hearing Shen Man’s voice, her hand jumped, and she almost poked her eye.

She closed one eye with an “Ah!” and said in a loud voice, “Okay, don’t rush, I’ll come over!”

Shen Man didn’t know what made this eldest lady angry.

She no longer waited for Lin Shu and sat down to fill herself a bowl of porridge, which she ate slowly.

After half an hour, Lin Shu’s door opened.

Shen Man heard the sound and looked at her. A trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Lin Shu was wearing a light green dress with thin straps, her delicate and attractive collarbones unobstructed. The folded design at the waist outlined her incredibly thin waist.

Her smooth hair was let down, and the black hair on her fair shoulders forming a strong visual impact.

The long green dress made her skin whiter and more tender, making her look like a small, fresh and simple beauty.

Shen Man glanced at her before lowering her head, and continuing to eat porridge.

Lin Shu laughed, walking over arrogantly. She sat down gracefully and started drinking porridge.

Lin Shu tasted a mouthful of porridge, and immediately frowned, showing a look of disgust, “What did you cook? It’s so unpalatable.”

Hearing this, Shen Man immediately understood that Lin Shu was trying to find fault with her.

 “I made lean meat porridge, isn’t it to your taste?” Shen Man said in a good-natured manner as she acted along.

  “Is this even edible? It’s bland and tasteless and the meat is sour.” Lin Shu covered her mouth with an expression full on nausea.

   “I think it’s fine.” Shen Man said with a smile, and continued to eat porridge leisurely.

   Lin Shu was ignored.

   Thinking of the plan to drive away Shen Man, she forcibly endured the fragrant aroma of the food, maintaining the look of disgust on her face.

   Suddenly, her stomach growled.

   Shen Man was bowing her head, and when she heard the sound, her lips curled up slightly.

   Lin Shu’s small face became hot, and she explained, “That came from my phone.”

   “Mhm” Shen Man smiled and didn’t expose her.

  Lin Shu felt her cheeks get hotter, and turned her head to the side angrily.

  After Shen Man finished breakfast, she wiped her mouth with a tissue, glanced at Lin Shu and said, “If you don’t eat, I will clear up the dishes.”

  “Then hurry up and clear it” Lin Shu raised her eyebrows in a rude manner.

  Shen Man smiled and got up to clear the table.

  Watching Shen Man bring the unfinished porridge to the kitchen, Lin Shu swallowed hard and touched her empty stomach.

  As soon as Shen Man came out, she put on her arrogant and cold look.

  From the her eyes to the tips of her brows, everything showed her dissatisfaction with Shen Man.

  “Since breakfast is over, hurry up and do the laundry.” Lin Shu said in a harsh tone.

  Shen Man heard her order and walked to the bathroom.

   The clothes that the two of them changed yesterday were all placed in the laundry basket.

  Shen Man took a look and walked out of the bathroom. She stood at the door and asked, “Do you want me to wash your underwear?”

  “I’ll take care of that myself,” Lin Shu blushed and got up immediately.

   Lin Shu took out her underwear, looked at the clothes in the dirty laundry basket and said, “Wash your clothes and mine separately. Don’t damage my clothes, or else…”

  With that, she humphed, making her threat obvious.

  Shen Man picked up Lin Shu’s clothes and correctly stated the brand and material of each piece of clothing, as well as the cleaning method.

  Lin Shu was startled and blurted out, “How do you know these brands so well?”

She did this to Shen Man based on how she couldn’t afford to damage these luxury brands. So if Lin Shu asks Shen Man to help her do the laundry, she can get a reason to drive her away.

 Shen Man chuckled lightly, her sharp eyes seemingly able to see through everything. Lowering her voice, Shen Man ambiguously said, “There are still many things that the eldest miss doesn’t know, but there will be a lot of time in the future for you to slowly understand.” 

The last two words were deliberately accentuated.

 Lin Shu’s heart skipped a beat and her eyes widened, unwilling to admit defeat, “Who wants to understand you?”

 Shen Man smiled without saying a word, and turned to do the laundry.

 Lin Shu’s clothes are expensive and need to be washed by hand.

 Shen Man worked in the bathroom for half an hour before she finished washing.

 She went out to dry clothes, and when she passed the living room, she saw Lin Shu eating apples.

  “Eldest miss, are you hungry? There are noodles and eggs in the refrigerator, do you want me to cook them?” Shen Man asked with a smile.

  Lin Shu stiffened her neck and replied, “No need, I’m not hungry at all.”

  “Hurry up and go out with me after drying the clothes. I’m going to do a manicure.”

   “Okay.” Shen Man agreed with a smile.

***

   Shen Man went back to her room and changed into a fresh set of clothes.

   Her whole outfit couldn’t even go past a thousand yuan, so standing next to Lin Shu, the gap between rich and poor was apparent.

   Lin Shu sneered arrogantly and fiddled with the hair in her ears, “When you walk with me, you’re really like a nanny.”

   “It’s my honor to serve such a beautiful and lovely young lady.” Shen Man hooked her lips, and fluttered her eyebrows.

   Lin Shu was taken aback.

   She didn’t get the slightest bit of satisfaction, and pouted her mouth angrily.

   The two went out one after the other.

   Lin Shu stopped in front of an expensive car, raised her chin and looked at Shen Man, “Can you drive?”

   Shen Man nodded.

   Lin Shu threw a bunch of keys over and got into the car first.

Shen Man took the key, sat in the driver’s seat, and started the car skillfully.

   This car is expensive and looks almost new, so it’s probably driven out rarely.

  “If you don’t know how to drive, why did you buy this car?” Shen Man held the steering wheel with her right hand and put her left arm on the armrest, enjoying the wind from the speedy car.

   “Because I want to, it’s not expensive anyway,” Lin Shu said.

   Shen Man: “…”

   A car worth millions of yuan is not expensive, as expected of the eldest lady.

   “When did you get your driver’s license?” Lin Shu asked, leaning back on the chair comfortably and expressing satisfaction with Shen Man’s driving skills.

  Hearing this, Shen Man’s face changed slightly, and she hurriedly retracted her arms, holding the steering wheel with both hands.

  Looking at the traffic police in front, she turned the steering wheel decisively.

  Lin Shu didn’t know why, and asked with dissatisfaction, “Why did you suddenly turn? We’re supposed to go straight.”

  “I don’t have a driver’s license.” Shen Man said.

   Lin Shu was stunned for a moment, and changed her attitude, “Hurry up! If you get caught, it will be troublesome.”

   “It’s not troublesome, it’s just losing some money and temporarily losing the car.” Shen Man smiled lightly, and glanced at Lin Shu. “This car isn’t expensive anyways.”

   Lin Shu choked on her breath—Shen Man was mocking her!

   She turned her head angrily, not wanting to talk to Shen Man.

   Shen Man raised the corners of her lips happily.

   With these scheming methods, Lin Shu can only bully those little boys and girls who have not experienced real social beatings.

    For someone like her who has experienced human cruelty and the hardships of life, it doesn’t work.

    She can even flirt with Lin Shu with ease.

    In order to avoid the traffic police on the road, Shen Man took half an hour to drive to the destination.

    Lin Shu got out of the car and closed the door forcefully, not feeling sorry for this precious new car at all.

    Shen Man locked the car, handed the key to Lin Shu, and said with a smile, “Thank you, Miss, for giving me the opportunity to drive such a nice car.”

    Lin Shu gave her a humph, took the key, and turned away to walk ahead.

    Shen Man followed behind.

    Lin Shu went in with familiarity.

    The owner of the nail salon gave a warm reception immediately, “Miss Lin, welcome, our shop has recently released some new patterns, please can take a look.”

    “En.” Lin Shu sat down.

    The owner personally served Lin Shu, poured tea and water, and brought the latest catalogues to Lin Shu.

    Shen Man stood aside, completely ignored.

    She didn’t care and just found a place to sit down by herself.

    Lin Shu glanced at Shen Man and said deliberately, “You can get a manicure.”

Before waiting for Shen Man to answer, she said arrogantly, “But the service here isn’t cheap, I dont think you can even do a single nail.”

  Shen Man didn’t speak, but just stared at Lin Shu with those dark eyes.

  Facing this sight, Lin Shu’s sarcastic tone became lower and lower, and she finally shut up.

  Shen Man laughed and sat quietly beside her.

   As the target of Lin Shu’s provocation, she only found it childish and petty, and wasn’t angry.

   She knew very well that Lin Shu’s actions today were all to anger her, hoping to drive her away.

   Lin Shu began to carefully select patterns.

   The store owner recommended several, but she was not satisfied. After half an hour of selection, there was still no definite answer.

   Shen Man stood up, pointed to one of the patterns and said, “This one, if you just change the color to light pink, it will be perfect for you.”

    “How would you know?” Lin Shu frowned.

    The owner saw this and hurriedly said, “Miss Lin, your fingers are beautiful. They are pale and delicate, so no matter what pattern you choose, it will look good, especially this pink. This color suits you the best, it’s pure and lovely, and will definitely be beautiful on you.”

    Lin Shu was still hesitant.

    Shen Man sat aside, picked up her finger, and gave it a careful analysis.

    She has a nice voice and was very serious, so one can’t help but believe it.

    Lin Shu was successfully convinced and said to the owner, “Just do this light pink.”

    “Of course, Miss Lin.” The owner answered happily.

     It took two hours to get the manicure done.

     Lin Shu looked at her fingers with a happy smile, and said to Shen Man with joy, “Your vision is really good. The appearance is better than I imagined.”

     “Eldest miss’s fingers are beautiful. No matter what you choose, the result will always be excellent” Shen Man chuckled lightly, with a gentle smile in her eyes.

    Lin Shu was stunned for a moment, and her face quickly turned red.

    She had heard the owner of the nail salon say this many times, but when this came from Shen Man’s red lips, it made genuinely made her feel happy.

    Lin Shu responded with a humph, suppressing the joy in her heart.

    The owner came over and said with a smile, “Miss Lin, the total is 5,000 yuan.”

     “En,” Lin Shu nodded.

     Shen Man was a little surprised when he heard the amount.

     It’s not that she thinks it’s a lot, but that it’s clearly not worth it.

     Miss Lin seems to be smart, but in terms of everyday life, she is stupid and has a lot of money, so she doesn’t feel anything after spending five thousand.

    Lin Shu took out her card to pay the bill, but the card was declined.

    Glancing at the text messages on her phone, she noticed that her card had been frozen.

    Lin Shu angrily went out, took out her mobile phone and quickly dialed a number.

    Shen Man followed and saw that the contact on the phone was ‘Old Man Lin’.

    When someone gives their father this name, either their relationship is very good, or their relationship is very bad.

    Looking at Lin Shu’s angry eyes, it was probably the latter.

    When the call was connected, Lin Shu demanded, “Why did you freeze my card?”

   “Shu Shu, I’m in a meeting now, I’ll talk to you later.” Father Lin replied.

 It wasn’t even 10 seconds into the call when he hung up.

    Lin Shu stared at the phone, her eyes red with anger.

    Just when Shen Man thought she was going to explode, Lin Shu suppressed all her anger, returned to the store with a cold face, and said, “I didn’t bring much cash today, I’ll give you two thousand yuan first.” .

    “Okay, Miss Lin, you’re always welcome to come again next time.” The owner said with a polite smile.

    Lin Shu went out and sat in the backseat of the car without saying a word.

    Shen Man sat in the driver’s seat and glanced back at her.

    The girl lowered her head, her soft black hair covering her small face. Her expression could not be seen clearly.

    Those white and beautiful fingers held the phone tightly as the veins on the back of her hands popped out. It seemed like she had used all her strength.

     After a while, a small cry came out from the dim backseat, which was quickly suppressed.

     Lin Shu raised her head, with glimmering tears in her red eyes. She looked at Shen Man, and said arrogantly, “Why aren’t you driving yet!”

     The sympathy in Shen Man’s heart disappeared.

***

     A car drove to the neighborhood.

     Shen Man stopped the car, looked at the girl’s red eyes in the rearview mirror, and said, “Your dad is busy with work, it’s understandable for him to ignore you.”

     Lin Shu sneered, tilted her head, and stubbornly looked at the sky through the window.

    The noon sun was bright, and after she stared at it for a while, her tears fell uncontrollably.

    Crystal tears flowed down her fair and smooth little face and fell on her delicate collarbone, leaving fainting traces on her white, tender skin.

     Sunlight poured in from outside the window, and it fell on a crystal teardrop, reflecting a glimmering light.

     Shen Man’s eyes narrowed slightly.

     Looking at the beautiful scene of a beauty shedding tears, she smiled softly.

     “What are you laughing at?” Lin Shu asked in a bad tone.

      “It’s nothing.” Shen Man’s smile deepened. She tapped the steering wheel with her fingers and asked, “Are you feeling better now?”

      “Mind your own business!” Lin Shu angrily opened the door and got out of the car.

Shen Man locked doors and caught up with Lin Shu.

    The two entered the elevator.

    Lin Shu looked at her red eyes in the mirror and glared at Shen Man fiercely, “You are not allowed to tell anyone about what happened today.”

    “Yes, eldest miss.” Shen Man smiled.

     The elevator door opened, and Lin Shu took the lead to go out and stood by the door, waiting for her to open it.

     Shen Man approached and said, “I don’t have the key.” 

  Lin Shu’s expression changed. As she fumbled in her pocket, her pale face became helpless, “Me neither, what do we do?”

     “We can only wait for Aunt He to come back.” Shen Man said calmly. Then, she paused and looked at Lin Shu, “Perhaps, you can go to your dad for the key.”

   “My dad doesn’t have the key.” Lin Shu replied in anger.

    Shen Man shrugged and didn’t ask about her father-daughter relationship.

    Lin Shu took out her mobile phone and called Aunt He.

     “Miss Lin, what’s the matter?” Aunt He asked politely.

     “I don’t have the key and now we’re locked out. When will you be back?” Lin Shu asked.

     “Four o’clock in the afternoon at the earliest.” Aunt He said with embarrassment.

      “Four o’clock?!” Lin Shu was surprised, “Then what do I do?” 

      The next second, her phone was taken away by a slender hand.

      Lin Shu glared at Shen Man angrily, and instinctively reached to get her cell phone back.

     When she threw herself forward, and the high heels under her feet slid to the side, causing her to fall into Shen Man’s arms.

     Shen Man gasped. Her brows wrinkled slightly and she her hand tightly imprisoned Lin Shu in her arms.

     Lin Shu couldn’t move and struggled to grab the phone.

     Shen Man lowered her head with cold eyes.

     Lin Shu was stunned for a moment, then stopped struggling, leaning obediently in Shen Man’s arms.

     “Aunt He, don’t worry, you can come back whenever you’re done.” Shen Man said with a smile. She looked at Lin Shu and asked, “What do you think, Shushu?”

    Lin Shu felt a dangerous aura lingering around her. Although she was unwilling, she answered, “Whatever.”

    “Thank you Miss Lin, I will try to go back as soon as possible.” Aunt He said gratefully.

    Shen Man hung up and returned the phone to Lin Shu, with a relaxed smile on her face. She put her arms around her slender waist and asked, “Aunt He seems to be afraid of you?”

    The scorching hot breath near her face made it hard for Lin Shu to breathe. A blush appeared on her small pale face.

    She turned her head and said fiercely, “Let go.”

    Shen Man smiled and let go.

    Lin Shu immediately stepped aside, fixed her skirt and hair, and stared at Shen Man defensively.

    Shen Man checked the time and found that it was two o’clock in the afternoon.

     “There’s some cookies in the car. Do you want to eat some cookies and then sleep?” Shen Man asked.

     Lin Shu puffed up her mouth and nodded reluctantly.

     The two got back into the car.

     Shen Man took out a bag of cookies and handed it to Lin Shu.

     Lin Shu had only eaten an apple since morning. She was so hungry that she took the biscuits and immediately started eating.

     “Eat slowly.” Shen Man said, handing over a bottle of water.

      Lin Shu choked and coughed. She took the water and then slowed down.

      “I’m going to sleep now. Call me when Aunt He comes back.” Lin Shu said arrogantly as she laid down in the backseat.

      Shen Man replied with an “en” and lowered her head to play with her phone.

      The girl in the back seat let out a small, kitten-like yawn.

     Shen Man looked up and suddenly saw Lin Shu’s body shrinking into a ball.

     She immediately turned up the heating and covered Lin Shu with a spare blanket in the glove box.

     “Hmm.” Lin Shu opened her eyes slightly, then closed them again in the next second.

     Shen Man stared at the sleeping face with deep eyes.

Lin Shu thought about it all night, and finally came up with an excellent solution.

She stayed up all night with excitement, and woke up the next morning with a dark circles under her eyes.

Shen Man made breakfast in the kitchen, cooking a simple lean meat porridge and frying two eggs.

She brought the breakfast to the table and shouted towards Lin Shu’s room, “Come out for breakfast.”

Lin Shu was putting on makeup in her room with a mirror. She was in a rush, smearing concealer on her face.

Hearing Shen Man’s voice, her hand jumped, and she almost poked her eye.

She closed one eye with an “Ah!” and said in a loud voice, “Okay, don’t rush, I’ll come over!”

Shen Man didn’t know what made this eldest lady angry.

She no longer waited for Lin Shu and sat down to fill herself a bowl of porridge, which she ate slowly.

After half an hour, Lin Shu’s door opened.

Shen Man heard the sound and looked at her. A trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Lin Shu was wearing a light green dress with thin straps, her delicate and attractive collarbones unobstructed. The folded design at the waist outlined her incredibly thin waist.

Her smooth hair was let down, and the black hair on her fair shoulders forming a strong visual impact.

The long green dress made her skin whiter and more tender, making her look like a small, fresh and simple beauty.

Shen Man glanced at her before lowering her head, and continuing to eat porridge.

Lin Shu laughed, walking over arrogantly. She sat down gracefully and started drinking porridge.

Lin Shu tasted a mouthful of porridge, and immediately frowned, showing a look of disgust, “What did you cook? It’s so unpalatable.”

Hearing this, Shen Man immediately understood that Lin Shu was trying to find fault with her.

 “I made lean meat porridge, isn’t it to your taste?” Shen Man said in a good-natured manner as she acted along.

  “Is this even edible? It’s bland and tasteless and the meat is sour.” Lin Shu covered her mouth with an expression full on nausea.

   “I think it’s fine.” Shen Man said with a smile, and continued to eat porridge leisurely.

   Lin Shu was ignored.

   Thinking of the plan to drive away Shen Man, she forcibly endured the fragrant aroma of the food, maintaining the look of disgust on her face.

   Suddenly, her stomach growled.

   Shen Man was bowing her head, and when she heard the sound, her lips curled up slightly.

   Lin Shu’s small face became hot, and she explained, “That came from my phone.”

   “Mhm” Shen Man smiled and didn’t expose her.

  Lin Shu felt her cheeks get hotter, and turned her head to the side angrily.

  After Shen Man finished breakfast, she wiped her mouth with a tissue, glanced at Lin Shu and said, “If you don’t eat, I will clear up the dishes.”

  “Then hurry up and clear it” Lin Shu raised her eyebrows in a rude manner.

  Shen Man smiled and got up to clear the table.

  Watching Shen Man bring the unfinished porridge to the kitchen, Lin Shu swallowed hard and touched her empty stomach.

  As soon as Shen Man came out, she put on her arrogant and cold look.

  From the her eyes to the tips of her brows, everything showed her dissatisfaction with Shen Man.

  “Since breakfast is over, hurry up and do the laundry.” Lin Shu said in a harsh tone.

  Shen Man heard her order and walked to the bathroom.

   The clothes that the two of them changed yesterday were all placed in the laundry basket.

  Shen Man took a look and walked out of the bathroom. She stood at the door and asked, “Do you want me to wash your underwear?”

  “I’ll take care of that myself,” Lin Shu blushed and got up immediately.

   Lin Shu took out her underwear, looked at the clothes in the dirty laundry basket and said, “Wash your clothes and mine separately. Don’t damage my clothes, or else…”

  With that, she humphed, making her threat obvious.

  Shen Man picked up Lin Shu’s clothes and correctly stated the brand and material of each piece of clothing, as well as the cleaning method.

  Lin Shu was startled and blurted out, “How do you know these brands so well?”

She did this to Shen Man based on how she couldn’t afford to damage these luxury brands. So if Lin Shu asks Shen Man to help her do the laundry, she can get a reason to drive her away.

 Shen Man chuckled lightly, her sharp eyes seemingly able to see through everything. Lowering her voice, Shen Man ambiguously said, “There are still many things that the eldest miss doesn’t know, but there will be a lot of time in the future for you to slowly understand.” 

The last two words were deliberately accentuated.

 Lin Shu’s heart skipped a beat and her eyes widened, unwilling to admit defeat, “Who wants to understand you?”

 Shen Man smiled without saying a word, and turned to do the laundry.

 Lin Shu’s clothes are expensive and need to be washed by hand.

 Shen Man worked in the bathroom for half an hour before she finished washing.

 She went out to dry clothes, and when she passed the living room, she saw Lin Shu eating apples.

  “Eldest miss, are you hungry? There are noodles and eggs in the refrigerator, do you want me to cook them?” Shen Man asked with a smile.

  Lin Shu stiffened her neck and replied, “No need, I’m not hungry at all.”

  “Hurry up and go out with me after drying the clothes. I’m going to do a manicure.”

   “Okay.” Shen Man agreed with a smile.

***

   Shen Man went back to her room and changed into a fresh set of clothes.

   Her whole outfit couldn’t even go past a thousand yuan, so standing next to Lin Shu, the gap between rich and poor was apparent.

   Lin Shu sneered arrogantly and fiddled with the hair in her ears, “When you walk with me, you’re really like a nanny.”

   “It’s my honor to serve such a beautiful and lovely young lady.” Shen Man hooked her lips, and fluttered her eyebrows.

   Lin Shu was taken aback.

   She didn’t get the slightest bit of satisfaction, and pouted her mouth angrily.

   The two went out one after the other.

   Lin Shu stopped in front of an expensive car, raised her chin and looked at Shen Man, “Can you drive?”

   Shen Man nodded.

   Lin Shu threw a bunch of keys over and got into the car first.

Shen Man took the key, sat in the driver’s seat, and started the car skillfully.

   This car is expensive and looks almost new, so it’s probably driven out rarely.

  “If you don’t know how to drive, why did you buy this car?” Shen Man held the steering wheel with her right hand and put her left arm on the armrest, enjoying the wind from the speedy car.

   “Because I want to, it’s not expensive anyway,” Lin Shu said.

   Shen Man: “…”

   A car worth millions of yuan is not expensive, as expected of the eldest lady.

   “When did you get your driver’s license?” Lin Shu asked, leaning back on the chair comfortably and expressing satisfaction with Shen Man’s driving skills.

  Hearing this, Shen Man’s face changed slightly, and she hurriedly retracted her arms, holding the steering wheel with both hands.

  Looking at the traffic police in front, she turned the steering wheel decisively.

  Lin Shu didn’t know why, and asked with dissatisfaction, “Why did you suddenly turn? We’re supposed to go straight.”

  “I don’t have a driver’s license.” Shen Man said.

   Lin Shu was stunned for a moment, and changed her attitude, “Hurry up! If you get caught, it will be troublesome.”

   “It’s not troublesome, it’s just losing some money and temporarily losing the car.” Shen Man smiled lightly, and glanced at Lin Shu. “This car isn’t expensive anyways.”

   Lin Shu choked on her breath—Shen Man was mocking her!

   She turned her head angrily, not wanting to talk to Shen Man.

   Shen Man raised the corners of her lips happily.

   With these scheming methods, Lin Shu can only bully those little boys and girls who have not experienced real social beatings.

    For someone like her who has experienced human cruelty and the hardships of life, it doesn’t work.

    She can even flirt with Lin Shu with ease.

    In order to avoid the traffic police on the road, Shen Man took half an hour to drive to the destination.

    Lin Shu got out of the car and closed the door forcefully, not feeling sorry for this precious new car at all.

    Shen Man locked the car, handed the key to Lin Shu, and said with a smile, “Thank you, Miss, for giving me the opportunity to drive such a nice car.”

    Lin Shu gave her a humph, took the key, and turned away to walk ahead.

    Shen Man followed behind.

    Lin Shu went in with familiarity.

    The owner of the nail salon gave a warm reception immediately, “Miss Lin, welcome, our shop has recently released some new patterns, please can take a look.”

    “En.” Lin Shu sat down.

    The owner personally served Lin Shu, poured tea and water, and brought the latest catalogues to Lin Shu.

    Shen Man stood aside, completely ignored.

    She didn’t care and just found a place to sit down by herself.

    Lin Shu glanced at Shen Man and said deliberately, “You can get a manicure.”

Before waiting for Shen Man to answer, she said arrogantly, “But the service here isn’t cheap, I dont think you can even do a single nail.”

  Shen Man didn’t speak, but just stared at Lin Shu with those dark eyes.

  Facing this sight, Lin Shu’s sarcastic tone became lower and lower, and she finally shut up.

  Shen Man laughed and sat quietly beside her.

   As the target of Lin Shu’s provocation, she only found it childish and petty, and wasn’t angry.

   She knew very well that Lin Shu’s actions today were all to anger her, hoping to drive her away.

   Lin Shu began to carefully select patterns.

   The store owner recommended several, but she was not satisfied. After half an hour of selection, there was still no definite answer.

   Shen Man stood up, pointed to one of the patterns and said, “This one, if you just change the color to light pink, it will be perfect for you.”

    “How would you know?” Lin Shu frowned.

    The owner saw this and hurriedly said, “Miss Lin, your fingers are beautiful. They are pale and delicate, so no matter what pattern you choose, it will look good, especially this pink. This color suits you the best, it’s pure and lovely, and will definitely be beautiful on you.”

    Lin Shu was still hesitant.

    Shen Man sat aside, picked up her finger, and gave it a careful analysis.

    She has a nice voice and was very serious, so one can’t help but believe it.

    Lin Shu was successfully convinced and said to the owner, “Just do this light pink.”

    “Of course, Miss Lin.” The owner answered happily.

     It took two hours to get the manicure done.

     Lin Shu looked at her fingers with a happy smile, and said to Shen Man with joy, “Your vision is really good. The appearance is better than I imagined.”

     “Eldest miss’s fingers are beautiful. No matter what you choose, the result will always be excellent” Shen Man chuckled lightly, with a gentle smile in her eyes.

    Lin Shu was stunned for a moment, and her face quickly turned red.

    She had heard the owner of the nail salon say this many times, but when this came from Shen Man’s red lips, it made genuinely made her feel happy.

    Lin Shu responded with a humph, suppressing the joy in her heart.

    The owner came over and said with a smile, “Miss Lin, the total is 5,000 yuan.”

     “En,” Lin Shu nodded.

     Shen Man was a little surprised when he heard the amount.

     It’s not that she thinks it’s a lot, but that it’s clearly not worth it.

     Miss Lin seems to be smart, but in terms of everyday life, she is stupid and has a lot of money, so she doesn’t feel anything after spending five thousand.

    Lin Shu took out her card to pay the bill, but the card was declined.

    Glancing at the text messages on her phone, she noticed that her card had been frozen.

    Lin Shu angrily went out, took out her mobile phone and quickly dialed a number.

    Shen Man followed and saw that the contact on the phone was ‘Old Man Lin’.

    When someone gives their father this name, either their relationship is very good, or their relationship is very bad.

    Looking at Lin Shu’s angry eyes, it was probably the latter.

    When the call was connected, Lin Shu demanded, “Why did you freeze my card?”

   “Shu Shu, I’m in a meeting now, I’ll talk to you later.” Father Lin replied.

 It wasn’t even 10 seconds into the call when he hung up.

    Lin Shu stared at the phone, her eyes red with anger.

    Just when Shen Man thought she was going to explode, Lin Shu suppressed all her anger, returned to the store with a cold face, and said, “I didn’t bring much cash today, I’ll give you two thousand yuan first.” .

    “Okay, Miss Lin, you’re always welcome to come again next time.” The owner said with a polite smile.

    Lin Shu went out and sat in the backseat of the car without saying a word.

    Shen Man sat in the driver’s seat and glanced back at her.

    The girl lowered her head, her soft black hair covering her small face. Her expression could not be seen clearly.

    Those white and beautiful fingers held the phone tightly as the veins on the back of her hands popped out. It seemed like she had used all her strength.

     After a while, a small cry came out from the dim backseat, which was quickly suppressed.

     Lin Shu raised her head, with glimmering tears in her red eyes. She looked at Shen Man, and said arrogantly, “Why aren’t you driving yet!”

     The sympathy in Shen Man’s heart disappeared.

***

     A car drove to the neighborhood.

     Shen Man stopped the car, looked at the girl’s red eyes in the rearview mirror, and said, “Your dad is busy with work, it’s understandable for him to ignore you.”

     Lin Shu sneered, tilted her head, and stubbornly looked at the sky through the window.

    The noon sun was bright, and after she stared at it for a while, her tears fell uncontrollably.

    Crystal tears flowed down her fair and smooth little face and fell on her delicate collarbone, leaving fainting traces on her white, tender skin.

     Sunlight poured in from outside the window, and it fell on a crystal teardrop, reflecting a glimmering light.

     Shen Man’s eyes narrowed slightly.

     Looking at the beautiful scene of a beauty shedding tears, she smiled softly.

     “What are you laughing at?” Lin Shu asked in a bad tone.

      “It’s nothing.” Shen Man’s smile deepened. She tapped the steering wheel with her fingers and asked, “Are you feeling better now?”

      “Mind your own business!” Lin Shu angrily opened the door and got out of the car.

Shen Man locked doors and caught up with Lin Shu.

    The two entered the elevator.

    Lin Shu looked at her red eyes in the mirror and glared at Shen Man fiercely, “You are not allowed to tell anyone about what happened today.”

    “Yes, eldest miss.” Shen Man smiled.

     The elevator door opened, and Lin Shu took the lead to go out and stood by the door, waiting for her to open it.

     Shen Man approached and said, “I don’t have the key.” 

  Lin Shu’s expression changed. As she fumbled in her pocket, her pale face became helpless, “Me neither, what do we do?”

     “We can only wait for Aunt He to come back.” Shen Man said calmly. Then, she paused and looked at Lin Shu, “Perhaps, you can go to your dad for the key.”

   “My dad doesn’t have the key.” Lin Shu replied in anger.

    Shen Man shrugged and didn’t ask about her father-daughter relationship.

    Lin Shu took out her mobile phone and called Aunt He.

     “Miss Lin, what’s the matter?” Aunt He asked politely.

     “I don’t have the key and now we’re locked out. When will you be back?” Lin Shu asked.

     “Four o’clock in the afternoon at the earliest.” Aunt He said with embarrassment.

      “Four o’clock?!” Lin Shu was surprised, “Then what do I do?” 

      The next second, her phone was taken away by a slender hand.

      Lin Shu glared at Shen Man angrily, and instinctively reached to get her cell phone back.

     When she threw herself forward, and the high heels under her feet slid to the side, causing her to fall into Shen Man’s arms.

     Shen Man gasped. Her brows wrinkled slightly and she her hand tightly imprisoned Lin Shu in her arms.

     Lin Shu couldn’t move and struggled to grab the phone.

     Shen Man lowered her head with cold eyes.

     Lin Shu was stunned for a moment, then stopped struggling, leaning obediently in Shen Man’s arms.

     “Aunt He, don’t worry, you can come back whenever you’re done.” Shen Man said with a smile. She looked at Lin Shu and asked, “What do you think, Shushu?”

    Lin Shu felt a dangerous aura lingering around her. Although she was unwilling, she answered, “Whatever.”

    “Thank you Miss Lin, I will try to go back as soon as possible.” Aunt He said gratefully.

    Shen Man hung up and returned the phone to Lin Shu, with a relaxed smile on her face. She put her arms around her slender waist and asked, “Aunt He seems to be afraid of you?”

    The scorching hot breath near her face made it hard for Lin Shu to breathe. A blush appeared on her small pale face.

    She turned her head and said fiercely, “Let go.”

    Shen Man smiled and let go.

    Lin Shu immediately stepped aside, fixed her skirt and hair, and stared at Shen Man defensively.

    Shen Man checked the time and found that it was two o’clock in the afternoon.

     “There’s some cookies in the car. Do you want to eat some cookies and then sleep?” Shen Man asked.

     Lin Shu puffed up her mouth and nodded reluctantly.

     The two got back into the car.

     Shen Man took out a bag of cookies and handed it to Lin Shu.

     Lin Shu had only eaten an apple since morning. She was so hungry that she took the biscuits and immediately started eating.

     “Eat slowly.” Shen Man said, handing over a bottle of water.

      Lin Shu choked and coughed. She took the water and then slowed down.

      “I’m going to sleep now. Call me when Aunt He comes back.” Lin Shu said arrogantly as she laid down in the backseat.

      Shen Man replied with an “en” and lowered her head to play with her phone.

      The girl in the back seat let out a small, kitten-like yawn.

     Shen Man looked up and suddenly saw Lin Shu’s body shrinking into a ball.

     She immediately turned up the heating and covered Lin Shu with a spare blanket in the glove box.

     “Hmm.” Lin Shu opened her eyes slightly, then closed them again in the next second.

     Shen Man stared at the sleeping face with deep eyes.
