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

Chapter 271 Like Dad

Su Heng shook his head. "This is my fault. I can't shirk my responsibility."

He loosened his clenched hands, turned and walked into the living room, sat down on the sofa, his face frighteningly gloomy. Jiang Man glanced at him, knowing that this man was once again caught in a vortex of self-reflection and self-blame.

She slowly sat down next to him, and the loveseat was instantly filled.

"Before I met you, I had always lived like this. When I was sick, I would bear it alone. When I couldn't bear it anymore, I would go to the hospital alone. It's no big deal. After meeting you, I am still the same. I haven't become weak. So, don't take it to heart. It's not your fault."

He looked up at her. Many times, he underestimated her tenacity.

He originally thought she was weak, but that was not the case. As she said, she could take care of her son so well and make him so healthy and cheerful by herself, so one could imagine how strong she was inside.

Su Heng didn't say much, just held her hand tightly and kissed it gently.

Jiang Man's cheeks flushed, perhaps because they hadn't seen each other for a few days, and this sudden intimacy made her feel a little embarrassed.

He stared at her and said, "Lu Ziyin is back."

Jiang Man's reaction was very calm, "Yeah, I know."

She thought that they were all leaders in the business world and should know each other's movements very well.

He carefully observed every subtle change on her face, gently closed his eyes, and said, "Did he come to see you after he came back?"

"Yeah," Jiang Man nodded without hesitation, "I've seen him once."

Su Heng lowered his eyes and saw that she did not hide anything. The tension between his brows eased a little, and the curve of his lips became more joyful.

"If he comes looking for you again, call me."

Jiang Man couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "Why?"

Glancing at her, he said with a hint of dissatisfaction, "You know exactly what he's thinking of you! What's even worse is that he's even got his eyes on Xuanxuan now."

He sneered, "I've never seen such a shameless man."

Jiang Man was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud: "Su Heng! Can you not be so stingy?"

He pursed his lips slightly, "I'm stingy? If I were really stingy, he wouldn't even have a chance to come back!"

Jiang Man believed his words without a doubt.

If Su Heng really had this plan, Lu Ziyin would indeed be in trouble. Not to mention the strength comparison between the two companies, Su Heng's personal strength alone was enough to daunt people.

Therefore, it is better to live in peace.

"It's getting late." She said. Although the look in her eyes when she looked at him was calm and no longer as strange as before, her order to leave was so obvious that it was obvious that she had not yet fully accepted him!

Su Heng frowned, "Are you going to drive me away?"

Jiang Man smiled and said, "My place is too small to accommodate three people. I can't let you sleep on the floor, so let's go back."

Su Heng narrowed his eyes, "Jiang Man, don't go too far. Just because I give in to you doesn't mean I have to accommodate you in everything."

Noticing that Mr. Su was angry, Jiang Man continued calmly, "Oh, you have such a bad temper? Xuanxuan keeps talking about his Uncle Su, saying that Uncle Su is the most gentle and kind person in the world."

Su Heng was stunned for a moment, lowered his eyes, and asked after a while: "Did he really say that?"

Jiang Man nodded: "Yes."

She looks innocent and harmless, with a kind smile.

Su Heng was silent for a while, took a deep breath, stood up, and spoke in a much softer voice, "It's too late, it would be bad to disturb Xuanxuan, I'll go back first."

Jiang Man stood up and said with a smile, "Okay, I won't see you off."

"Well, go in and keep Xuanxuan company."

Su Heng didn't hesitate, picked up his suit jacket and left, but stopped at the door, "I'll move the luggage here tomorrow, please free up a locker for me."

Jiang Man didn't expect that he really wanted to live here, and quickly said, "I don't even have room for your things here! Look, the house is so small, it feels crowded for just the two of us, mother and son. There's really no way we can add another person."

She spoke very sincerely and nodded vigorously after finishing her speech.

That's right, that's it!

Su Heng stroked his chin. He was well aware of the inadequate hardware facilities, so he replied, "I see the place next door has been empty. I'll buy it as well, and then install a door in the middle, so that the two rooms can be connected."

Jiang Man stood there quietly for a long time, until his figure completely disappeared, then he secretly sighed in his heart: The power of money can really make people do whatever they want.

However, she did feel a little relieved that he didn't insist on staying tonight.

After all, no matter how clearly he explained his relationship with Ding Xin, Ding Xin was real. Furthermore, the rumors about them hadn't been cleared up yet. In that case, what was her relationship with him? At the same time, she didn't want the adult entanglements to affect Xuanxuan. A child's world was pure and innocent, and as a mother, she had a responsibility to protect it!

After a busy day, Jiang Man took a bath and went to sleep with her son.

The next morning, there was a burst of noise in the corridor.

Jiang Man was woken up and walked to the door in his pajamas. When he opened the door, he happened to run into Grandma Yang.

"Good morning, Grandma Yang."

"Xuanxuan, good morning."

Grandma Yang looked towards the corridor and said, "Is someone moving? The house next to you has been empty for a long time. I don't know if it was sold or rented out."

Jiang Man suddenly remembered something and his eyes froze instantly.

No way? !

She originally thought Su Heng was just talking casually, but she didn't expect him to actually do it! At this time, the decoration workers had arrived, and after asking for the house number, they began to get busy.

After getting up, Xuanxuan asked curiously, "Mom, is someone moving in next door?"

Jiang Man was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to respond. He couldn't just tell him that Su Heng was moving in, right? That would be too awkward.

But soon, there was a banging sound on the wall, and Xuanxuan was startled: "Mom! They are going to break through the wall!"

"Uh... they seem to be installing a door..."

"Door? Why do we need a door?"

"because……"

Jiang Man had no choice but to tell Xuanxuan that the person who was going to live next door was Su Heng.

Xuanxuan jumped for joy after hearing this. He hugged her neck and kept saying, "It's Uncle Su! It's Uncle Su! That's great. I can live with Uncle Su again."

Seeing his son's excitement, Jiang Man couldn't help but be stunned. After a long time, he slowly asked: "Xuanxuan, do you really like him so much?"

"Yeah! I like it!"

"why?"

The little guy tilted his head and thought for a while, "Because Uncle Su looks like Dad!"

Her heart suddenly tightened, and she remained silent, just hugging her son tightly, her face full of guilt and heartache.
