Chapter 138 Design Exhibition
"Ms. Su." Mother Lu walked towards Su Heng with a cocktail in her hand, her demeanor showing the demeanor of a noble lady.
Su Heng raised his eyelids slightly, "Is there something?" He responded softly and then turned his eyes away.
The embarrassment on Lu's mother's face flashed away, but she still kept smiling. She walked closer to Su Heng and whispered, "Mr. Su, I'm here to apologize to you for what happened last time."
She took a glass of wine from the tray respectfully presented by the waiter with a leisurely manner, and a gentle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. The smile was like the gentle breeze in spring, warm yet reserved, but it seemed that it did not really touch the depths of her deep eyes.
"Mr. Su?" She handed the wine to Su Heng.
Su Heng glanced at her indifferently and took the wine glass.
Mother Lu also took a sip of wine. "I was impulsive that day and offended President Su. I hope President Su doesn't mind."
"Mrs. Lu, you are too kind. I have long forgotten such a trivial matter." Su Heng responded politely.
Mrs. Lu smiled again. "I'm relieved now that President Su said that." She lowered her head, her eyes flickering. "However, I still want to remind President Su that you should be discerning in your work and not be fooled by appearances in your life."
"Oh?" Su Heng seemed interested and looked at her.
When Su Heng's gaze finally fell on her, Mother Lu continued, "This woman Jiang Man is really hard for me to speak of."
She looked at Su Heng sincerely, "I shouldn't interfere in your private affairs, but I hope Mr. Su can open his eyes and not be deceived by the appearance of some women."
Su Heng took a sip of wine and said thoughtfully, "Thank you, Madam Lu, for reminding me."
He glanced at Mrs. Lu, his eyes flashing with coldness, "However, I hope that Mrs. Lu will be more careful in her words and actions in the future."
Mother Lu shuddered all over, shivering at the chill of his tone. "I'm only doing this for your own good..." She stuttered.
Su Heng withdrew his gaze, unwilling to argue with her any further. "When you have time, you should pay more attention to President Lu. After all, coveting someone else's wife is not a glorious thing." He sneered and then walked towards the door.
Mrs. Lu looked at his back, trembling with anger and cursing in her heart.
Jiang Man came out of the bathroom and stood aside chatting with Xiao Zheng.
Su Heng came over with a dark face and held her hand, "Come with me."
Jiang Man looked at him blankly, "What's wrong?"
The two walked to the garden together, feeling the gentle breeze.
Su Heng's eyes flashed, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "How do you feel about me?"
Jiang Man was surprised by his question and became even more confused. "What? Can you explain it more clearly?"
"What position do I hold in your heart?" he asked again, more directly and more touchingly.
Jiang Man turned her head away, breathing rapidly, and she answered quickly, "I don't know."
Su Heng looked at her and didn't ask any more questions.
He leaned closer to her and gently touched her head, "Then think about it carefully until you understand it." After that, he walked past her and back to the hall.
Jiang Man covered his chest, his heart beating like a drum.
Lu Ziyin hid in the dark, and every word Jiang Man said came into his ears without missing a word.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, clenched his fingers into fists, and looking at Jiang Man, he knew that she was moved.
He secretly hated that she could only be his.
In the morning, last night's party continued into the night.
It was almost dawn when Jiang Man returned.
She sat up tiredly, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and yawned. Today was Miss Chloe's personal art exhibition, and Manager Yan had arranged for her to help.
"Mom, Grandma Yang and I are going to kindergarten!" Xuanxuan's voice sounded at the door.
Jiang Man responded vaguely, "Yeah!"
She closed her eyes and wanted to sleep a little longer, but a phone call woke her up. She gritted her teeth and reached out to answer the phone.
"Manman, it's me." Lu Ziyin's magnetic voice came.
When Jiang Man heard it was Lu Ziyin, he suppressed his impatience and asked, "What do you want from me?"
"I heard that you are going to help out at the art exhibition today. I'm on my way there, so let's go together." His voice was gentle and seductive.
She was about to refuse, but Lu Ziyin interrupted her, "Don't say you don't have time, I've asked Xiaolu, I'm downstairs at your house now."
Knowing he couldn't refuse, Jiang Man yawned and got up reluctantly.
Looking at her haggard self in the mirror, she felt a bitterness in her heart.
"Aheng, today is the day of my first personal design exhibition." Chloe stood beside Su Heng with a bright smile on her face.
"Yeah." Su Heng nodded slightly, his eyes fixed on the document in his hand, without moving an inch.
"When are we leaving?" Chloe asked, taking a sip of water from her glass. "I heard that Mr. Lu will also be honored to visit."
Su Heng glanced at her sideways, his eyes thoughtful, "Lu Ziyin?"
Chloe lowered her eyes slightly, and a slight curve appeared at the corner of her lips. "Yes."
Su Heng remained silent, his brows slightly furrowed.
"I'm leaving first, remember to come." Chloe smiled and turned to walk out the door.
A hint of gloom flashed across Su Heng's eyes.
He leaned on the sofa, his eyes slightly narrowed, as if he was thinking about something.
During the exhibition, Jiang Man rubbed his eyebrows from time to time and still looked a little tired.
At this time, Lu Ziyin came over and stood beside her, looking at the couple surrounded by people in the distance. As usual, he asked naturally, "What would you like to eat for lunch?"
Jiang Man turned to look at him and stared at him for a moment. Lu Ziyin chuckled: "Why are you looking at me like that? Do you suddenly find me handsome?"
Jiang Man was amused and shook his head: "I'm not hungry yet."
Now is not a good time to talk about personal matters, and she doesn't want her personal feelings to affect her work for the time being.
Lu Ziyin said again: "How can that be? You have to eat something even if you are not hungry. The exhibition is almost over, so just think of it as accompanying me to eat something. If you don't want to eat, then I will starve with you."
Jiang Man looked at him deeply again, thought for a moment, and nodded, "Okay."
Perhaps, I should take this opportunity to make everything clear.
The two of them left quietly through the back door.
Behind him, a fierce gaze became even sharper.
They went to a nearby upscale restaurant and chose a seat by the window.
"Two steak sets, please." He said to the waiter.
Jiang Man looked out the window, with thousands of words surging in his heart, but they were all stuck in his throat and he didn't know where to start.
After the waiter left, she turned around and said to him, "Ziyin, I have something to tell you."
"If it will affect the dining atmosphere, let's talk about it after we finish eating." Lu Ziyin also looked back at her, his eyes seeing through everything, as if he could see through her thoughts at a glance.
