Chapter 116: Learning about Xuanxuan and Madam Su's connection
Xuanxuan coughed and glanced at his mother, looking like a little adult.
Xuanxuan curled her lips and looked at Su Heng, "Um... Mom, this brother is the boyfriend I wanted to introduce to you before. But, he said he's already taken."
Jiang Man interrupted quickly, "First of all, Xuanxuan calls him uncle, and secondly, can someone explain to me what is going on?"
Xuanxuan glanced at Su Heng secretly, not sure whether he should say it. Seeing Su Heng nod slightly, Xuanxuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to hide anything from his mother.
"This was given to me by an old lady." Xuanxuan answered seriously.
Jiang Man was stunned. "Grandma?"
She looked at Su Heng, full of doubts, "It can't be."
Su Heng nodded in confirmation: "Exactly."
Jiang Man was completely speechless now. Xuanxuan not only met Su Heng but also met Su Heng's deceased grandmother without Jiang Man's knowledge!
Is this what they call fate?
Xuanxuan glanced at Su Heng again, and when he nodded, he continued, "A great-grandmother gave it to me." Xuanxuan spoke every word very seriously.
"Great grandmother?" Jiang Man was startled again, then looked at Su Heng and heard him slowly say, "It's my grandmother."
He actually gave such an expensive diamond to Xuanxuan.
She glanced at Su Heng and said, "Xuanxuan, mom and uncle have to go back first."
Xuanxuan looked at them reluctantly, "Will Mom go back with Uncle?"
Jiang Man looked at Su Heng and said "hmm" vaguely.
Xuanxuan put his arm around Su Heng's neck and whispered in his ear, "Uncle, my mother is a really nice person. Would you like to reconsider?"
Su Heng raised a smile, "I remember I told you I was married."
A trace of disappointment flashed across Xuanxuan's face, "Okay then."
Jiang Man and Su Heng got into the car. She fastened her seat belt carefully and leaned back in a relaxed manner.
Su Heng glanced at her and asked, "Is this child Lu Ziyin's?"
Hearing this, Jiang Man paused and quickly shook his head to deny, "Of course not."
Su Heng hesitated to speak.
Jiang Man looked out the window, knowing what he wanted to ask, but not knowing how to answer. A normal person would probably find that answer difficult to accept, right?
However, no matter what Xuanxuan's background was, it didn't matter anymore. Her current life was enough to make her feel satisfied.
Along the way, the two were silent until the car stopped at the entrance of the community.
Jiang Man unbuckled his seat belt and was about to get out of the car.
Su Heng said calmly: "You are an adult now, you must learn to say no."
Jiang Man understood what he meant, nodded, and turned to leave.
Jiang Lu was waiting for Jiang Man at the hospital entrance.
The phone vibrated.
Jiang Lu answered the phone, "Hello?"
"Jiang Lu, you are so brave, you little bitch! How dare you lie to me!" Brother Dao's loud voice came from the other end of the phone.
Jiang Lu rubbed her ears and rolled her eyes. "You're not as skilled as others, who can you blame?"
"You bitch..." Brother Dao continued to curse.
There were footsteps in the corridor, and she whispered into the phone: "I will find a way to get the diamonds, and you will get your share when the time comes. Don't call me anymore!" After that, she hung up the phone.
Jiang Man came to the hospital and saw Jiang Lu waiting for her.
She looked at Jiang Lu seriously. Jiang Lu lowered her head, not daring to meet Jiang Man's gaze.
"Xiao Lu, tell me, did you really just meet those people by chance in the bar?"
Jiang Lu lowered her head, not daring to tell the truth, and could only nod desperately.
Jiang Man sighed, "Don't associate with these people anymore, understand?"
"I understand." Jiang Lu answered hesitantly.
Seeing that she was really scared, Jiang Man didn't say anything more, but just told her not to tell her parents about it.
Jiang Lu glanced at Jiang Man secretly and asked cautiously, "Sister, who was that man today?"
"He is my boss at the company."
"Your boss?" Jiang Lu's eyes widened in surprise. She rolled her eyes and sat down next to Jiang Man, holding her arm affectionately. "Sister, is your company still hiring?"
Jiang Man glanced at her and shook his head, "I don't know."
"Sister, I also want to work in your company. You don't know how hard it is to find a job outside. If I can't find one, I can only work in places like bars..." Jiang Lu looked pitiful.
Jiang Man was a little hesitant, after all, she couldn't make the decision.
"Sister, please." Jiang Lu begged again, pouting her lips, as if she was about to cry at any moment.
Seeing her like this, Jiang Man sighed helplessly, "Let me ask for you."
"Thank you, sister!" Jiang Lu kissed her on the face, but a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes.
Jiang Man came to the Human Resources Department early in the morning.
"Manager Zhang, does the company have any recruitment plans recently?" Jiang Man asked politely.
When Manager Zhang saw that it was Jiang Man, he naturally knew her "special status" in the company. After all, this girl had a close relationship with the president! He immediately responded enthusiastically: "Hiring! Of course!"
Jiang Man scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "I have a friend."
Before she could finish, Manager Zhang waved his hand and said, "There's a vacancy. Let your friend report tomorrow!"
Jiang Man didn't expect it to be so smooth. "That's great, thank you Manager Zhang!"
During lunch break, Jiang Man called Jiang Lu and told her the good news of his job.
Jiang Lu on the other end of the phone was so excited that she almost jumped up, and her joy was beyond words.
Feeling Jiang Lu's happiness, Jiang Man also smiled with satisfaction and said softly, "You can officially report to the Human Resources Department tomorrow."
"Really? That's great!" Jiang Lu excitedly curled the hair by her ears, her eyes flashing with anticipation, "Sister, I'll go fix my hair first. After all, I have to go to work tomorrow." Before she finished speaking, Jiang Lu hung up the phone in a hurry.
Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Jiang Man shook his head helplessly with a bitter smile on his lips.
"Manman?" A gentle female voice suddenly came from behind.
Jiang Man turned around and saw Chen Mei standing behind her with a warm smile on her face. It seemed that time had not left too many traces on her.
"Mrs. Su?" Jiang Man greeted with some surprise.
"You are still so distant, kid." Chen Mei shook her head gently, with a hint of pampering in her smile.
Jiang Man smiled embarrassedly, "Mrs. Su, are you here to see Chen Hao? He's on the 28th floor."
"No, I came here specifically to see you." Chen Mei replied with a smile.
"Are you looking for me?" Jiang Man pointed at himself, looking confused.
Chen Mei nodded. "Manman, I hope it won't take up your time. I want to have lunch with you."
Jiang Man nodded and followed Chen Mei.
