“No need.” Shi Man always felt helpless when facing Shi Mu.

He was the most unstable of her brothers, but he had always been considerate of her.

Shi Mu was still worried and wanted to persuade his sister to let him replace her. However, Shi Ke held his shoulder and stopped him. “This matter can’t be resolved by you fighting for your sister. Calm down and stop fooling around.”

Shi Mu was instantly furious. What he hated the most was that his brothers always treated him like a child and did not seem to take him seriously.

At this moment, this emotion completely erupted. He couldn’t help but roar at him, “You’re always so capable. You’re calm enough and can do everything well. Then why don’t you come up with an idea now!”

His voice was so loud that Lu Jun, who had walked outside, heard him.

The few of them turned around in surprise and happened to see the brothers arguing. Lu Jun couldn’t help but laugh. “People outside say that the Shi family is the most amiable. Now, it seems that the rumors are indeed not true.”

After being mocked time after time, the smile on Shi Zhong’s face was about to disappear. He turned around and glared at his sons. After giving Shi Ke a look, he pulled a long face and invited Lu Jun and the others to sit in the pavilion.

Butler Qi hurriedly brought the tea over.

Shen Xian could not sit still, but she did not want to make a fool of herself. She could only be in an uncomfortable situation and be on tenterhooks.

Shi Man quickly walked out surrounded by her brothers.

The other two brothers could still hide their anger without batting an eyelid, but Shi Mu did not hide it at all.

He glared at Chu Yue as if she was his enemy. He wished he could chase her out of the Shi family’s manor immediately and not let her in again.

However, he could only think about it in his heart. No matter how angry he was, he did not dare to be rash with Shi Zhong suppressing him.

Chu Yue had already stood in the empty space in front of the pavilion. The mocking smile on her face provoked Shi Mu so much that he almost couldn’t take it anymore.

Shi Man reached out to stop him and pushed Shi Mu. “Brother, go and sit with Mother. Just protect her.”

She was worried that Chu Yue would go crazy after losing and attack randomly again.

Shi Mu’s eyes were red, and his arms were trembling from anger. However, he could only be pulled away by his other two brothers. He looked back at his sister, who had become alone, with every step, and his heart ached.

Their Shi family’s precious treasure was actually bullied like this. No matter what, he could not let his sister be injured later. At most, they would not have the business this time. They would fall out with these people and chase them back to the capital!

After making up his mind, Shi Mu broke free from his two brothers’ arms and stood outside the pavilion, unwilling to enter, in case anything happened to his sister later.

The other two thought so too. The three of them stood side by side in front, like an indestructible city wall.

Lu Jun looked at the three of them approvingly. In the end, his gaze landed on Shi Man, who was standing straight in the empty space and not panicking at all.

As her opponent, Chu Yue naturally sensed her nonchalance, which was why she was even more jealous. Her mentality and courage were far from what Chu Yue could achieve.

However, when she thought about how she might be bluffing, Chu Yue felt better for some reason. The smile on her lips deepened, and she said faintly, “When you’re beaten up later, don’t cry and call for your brothers!”

Shi Man sneered and mocked without hesitation, “Didn’t you say that you don’t have the time to talk?”

Chu Yue’s eyes turned cold. She raised her fist and swung it.

Shen Xian’s heart was instantly in her throat. She hurriedly stood up to take a look, but in the next second, she saw that Chu Yue’s slender arm was held firmly by Shi Man.

Shi Man turned her wrist slightly, and Chu Yue immediately frowned in pain.

However, she had been in the army all year round, so she was naturally not stumped by this pain. She quickly turned her body and removed the force from Shi Man’s hand. After pulling away slightly, she rushed up again.

Shi Man stood in her original position calmly. She would only defend when she was attacked, but every time she attacked, she hit the vital points, making Chu Yue’s seemingly dense attacks useless.

It was noon, and Chu Yue was covered in sweat. The long hair on her forehead was completely drenched in sweat.

However, Shi Man still stood there coldly, like a statue that kept emitting cold air. However, this statue was agile, so Chu Yue could not even touch the corner of her clothes.

No one present expected such an outcome.

Especially Shi Mu, who was worried about his sister at first. Now, he wished that his sister could quickly defeat this woman so that they could go home for dinner.

Lu Jun’s calm expression could not help but fall. He stared fixedly at Shi Man’s every seemingly simple action and could not help but frown and shake his head.

There was no need to continue this competition. Chu Yue was destined to lose. She was no match for Shi Man..
