Humiliated by my mother-in-law, I married into a wealthy family with my son four years later

Chapter 106 Being used

Jiang Man's fingertips trembled slightly, and his eyes were slightly red.

When he confessed his love to her, in that gentle moment, this melodious song happened to serve as the background, gently surrounding them and adding an unforgettable melody to that pure emotion.

She turned her head away, trying to hide her gaffe.

"Full." His voice sounded softly.

Jiang Man sniffed lightly and forced a smile, "What's wrong?"

"Start over with me, okay?" He sat at the piano, his smile exactly the same as the one he remembered.

Jiang Man stroked his chest and slowly closed his eyes. There was no longer the former grandeur there, everything had gone with the wind.

Never go back.

She opened her eyes and forced a smile, "Ziyin, we can't go back."

"I already have my own husband, and Xuanxuan, not to mention that there is Madam Lu between us."

"What if none of this exists?" Lu Ziyin stared into Jiang Man's eyes, a faint smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

Jiang Man was stunned. "What do you mean?"

"Manman, these are not the problems. If you refuse from the beginning, then no matter how much I do, it will be in vain."

It turned out that she had rejected him from the very beginning. Jiang Man's heart trembled. She had never thought that one day she would reject him.

"You." She hesitated and finally said nothing.

"Even if we can't be together, can you give me a chance to be friends?"

"Manman, stop refusing. Don't you even want to give me this chance?"

"no……"

"Then you agree?"

Jiang Man closed his eyes and sighed deeply. He didn't want to contact her, but he was not decisive enough.

"I have work to do in the afternoon and have to go back to the company." She did not answer him directly.

There was a faint smile on Lu Ziyin's lips. He knew Jiang Man better than anyone else. Although she had changed a lot, her essence remained unchanged.

"I send you."

Jiang Man remained silent, which was considered as his agreement.

"By the way." He suddenly said, "Manman, you have to be careful of Su Heng. This man has other intentions towards you."

Jiang Man looked at him, bewildered. "What do you mean?"

Lu Ziyin walked up to her and gently stroked her cheek. "You are still the same as before, so easy to trust others."

"He doesn't really have deep feelings for you, does he? He's only close to you because we were together before."

Jiang Man lowered her head. Of course she knew, "I understand."

"You knew?" Lu Ziyin was stunned, a glint in her eyes. "Did you know that he used our affairs to exchange for shares in a subsidiary company?"

Jiang Man was shocked. "What did you say?"

Seeing Jiang Man's reaction, Lu Ziyin smiled slightly, "Manman, you are too naive. He is close to you only because of our past."

"Is that so?" Jiang Man's face showed an expression of disbelief.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the company." Having said that, Lu Zinyin walked around Jiang Man and walked forward, leaving her alone in a daze.

"Hello, Lao Lin." During lunch break, Manager Lin received a call.

He looked at the caller ID and said, "Manager Li, what's going on?"

"Regarding the cooperation with Huamei, some details were not clarified last time. Please ask Jiang Man to come today. I have some things to discuss with her." Li Jian laughed on the other end of the phone.

"Manager Li, you may not know that Jiang Man is no longer in charge of this cooperation recently."

"She has been following up on the cooperation from the beginning. I'm afraid that if someone else were to take over, others wouldn't be aware of it."

"About this." Manager Lin's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He was afraid of delaying the company's work, so he had to agree. "I understand."

When Jiang Man returned to the company, Manager Lin greeted him with a smile, "Jiang Man..."

Jiang Man shuddered and pursed his lips, "Manager, what's the matter?"

"That Manager Li..." Manager Lin didn't know how to start. After all, Jiang Man was no longer following up on this cooperation. "He wants to treat you to a meal and talk to you about the cooperation that was not completed last time."

"Manager Li?" Jiang Man looked at him suspiciously, somewhat confused.

Manager Lin nodded awkwardly, "It's Manager Li who was on TV last time."

"Li Jian?" Jiang Man repeated the name in disbelief.

"Ah."

"Manager Lin, I am no longer responsible for the cooperation with Huamei. It might be more appropriate to find someone else." Jiang Man politely refused.

Manager Lin sighed, "I thought so too, but he specifically asked to see you."

"What?" Jiang Man frowned. Wouldn't he be walking into a tiger's mouth if he went there?

"Jiang Man, just go there." Manager Lin didn't know what had happened before.

Jiang Man gritted her teeth. She had to listen to her leader's words, so she nodded and said, "I understand."

She packed up and prepared to leave. She took out her phone and flipped through the address book, her eyes fixed on Su Heng's number.

She composed a text message and hit send, hoping it was still too late.

After doing all this, Jiang Man followed Manager Lin's arrangements and went to the restaurant arranged by Li Jian.

Su Heng was having lunch with Chloe. He was cutting a steak and asked expressionlessly, "What brings you here today?"

Chloe chuckled, a professional expression on her face. "I'm here to discuss with you which designs are more suitable for exhibition."

"Whatever you want, you always have good taste." Su Heng put down the cutlery and took a sip of red wine.

Chloe shook her head helplessly, "Heng, you are so casual."

"Thank you for the compliment." He looked out the window absentmindedly when his cell phone vibrated slightly. He glanced out of the corner of his eye and clearly saw the message from Jiang Man.

He frowned. This woman never texted him. He picked up the phone and swiped it lightly with his fingertips.

After reading the message, he stood up suddenly, his face as gloomy as water.

"What's wrong?" Chloe was startled, as if she had never seen him like this before.

"Take your time to eat. I have something urgent to do and need to leave now." After saying that, he quickly left the restaurant without waiting for Chloe's response.

Chloe chewed her steak and slammed her knife and fork onto the plate, a hint of anger crossing her beautiful face. She clearly saw the words "Jiang Man" on the plate. He'd actually left her hanging for that woman? She took a sip from her wine glass and decided she couldn't let them go on like this any longer.

Jiang Man took a taxi to the agreed-upon hotel. She took a deep breath, hoping Su Heng would see the message soon. Her palms clenched tightly, sweat dripping from her chest. Li Jian was a beast in disguise. God knew what he would do to her. She had to remain vigilant at all times to avoid any accidents.

Jiang Man looked at the hotel and said to himself: It's okay, Jiang Man, just say a few words and come out, it's okay.

She comforted herself, closed her eyes and opened them again, took a deep breath, and walked into the restaurant.
