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

Chapter 139 Xuanxuan was taken away

Jiang Man paused and slowly lowered his head. He had a feeling that he already knew what she wanted to say.

The two of them sat in silence, Lu Ziyin's expression slightly gloomy, and the atmosphere remained somewhat awkward. Fortunately, the meal was served soon after.

She cut the steak and ate it in small bites, but it was obvious that she had no appetite.

Lu Ziyin glanced at her and was about to speak when he saw Su Heng approaching from behind. He raised his eyebrows slightly, stopped what he was doing, and greeted with a smile: "Boss Su, what a coincidence?"

Jiang Man was startled and slowly turned around to see Su Heng and Chloe approaching them. She frowned slightly, feeling embarrassed.

"No wonder Mr. Lu left first, it turns out he had another beautiful lady with him!" Chloe said jokingly.

Lu Ziyin chuckled: "Yeah, it took a long time for her to agree."

Jiang Man was extremely embarrassed, but since it was obvious that the other person was joking, she didn't want to explain any further.

Feeling a sharp gaze from above her head, she avoided it guiltily. At that moment, she had the ridiculous illusion that she was caught in the act of adultery!

"You're going out on a date during work hours?" Su Heng glanced at her, then looked away and spoke slowly.

Knowing he was talking about him, Jiang Man pursed his lips and responded with a stiff upper lip, "The exhibition was over when I left."

Lu Ziyin very gentlemanly came to her rescue: "Haha, Mr. Su, if you want to blame someone for this, blame me."

"Why should I blame you?" Su Heng looked up at him, "She is she, you are you, and she has nothing to do with you! No matter how I blame you, it can't be blamed on you."

His words instantly brought the atmosphere to a freezing point.

Chloe's face was grim, but she still gently took Su Heng's arm and stepped forward to help, "Mr. Lu, don't you mind having two more people dining together?"

Jiang Man's eyes inadvertently fell on the two people's hands linked together, and then quickly retracted them.

Lu Ziyin's attitude was a little cold, but he still responded politely: "Welcome."

Chloe sat down next to Jiang Man, beckoned the waiter over, and took the initiative to order food for Su Heng. However, Su Heng didn't care at all the time, just staring at Jiang Man with a pair of slightly cold eyes, making her feel uncomfortable.

"Ms. Jiang, you've worked so hard today." Chloe said with a smile.

Jiang Man also responded politely: "This is my job, it's not hard at all."

Chloe looked at Lu Ziyin again, "I've seen Mr. Lu and Miss Jiang together many times. Are you two hiding your relationship from us?"

Su Heng raised his eyebrows, his expression calm, but he was staring at Jiang Man closely.

Jiang Man paused and widened his eyes: "Miss Yi, it's better not to make such jokes."

Lu Ziyin wiped the corner of her lips with a napkin, her eyes swept across the man opposite her, and then fell affectionately on Jiang Man, "If Manman has no objection, I'm naturally looking forward to it."

Hearing this, Jiang Man could no longer sit still. She stood up and said, "I'm done eating. Sorry, I still have work to do. I'll go back first."

She nodded slightly to the two of them, not even daring to look at Su Heng, and turned around and left quickly.

Lu Ziyin also stood up leisurely, "I won't bother you any more."

Watching the two leave, Chloe seemed to be touched: "Heng, don't you think they are a good match?"

Su Heng glanced at her coldly, then stood up and said, "From now on, don't try to be clever in front of me anymore."

Chloe shuddered slightly, and the smile on her face became stiff: "I don't know what you are talking about."

"You know it."

Without even a second glance at her, he too left the restaurant.

Chloe sat alone in the restaurant, holding her knife and fork tightly in her hands, feeling mixed emotions.

Back to the exhibition, all displayed here are Chloe's painstaking works.

As a talented designer, her works are all unique and ingenious.

"Very charming, isn't it?" Lu Ziyin whispered beside her.

Jiang Man nodded and praised her generously, "Ms. Chloe is undoubtedly an outstanding designer. I have always admired her work."

"Hmm." Lu Ziyin stared at Jiang Man, a hint of amusement in his eyes, and suddenly asked: "Manman, tell me honestly, are you attracted to Su Heng?"

Jiang Man was stunned and quickly denied it, "No, how is it possible!"

"Really?" Lu Ziyin stared at her closely, not missing any subtle expression on her face.

"I'm working now and don't want to talk about this issue." Jiang Man avoided his gaze and walked quickly towards the crowd.

Lu Ziyin watched her leave without stopping her, because for the first time he felt a sense of powerlessness.

Chloe's first solo exhibition in China attracted much attention from professionals and media. The picture of her and Su Heng together stole the spotlight and added a lot of buzz to the event.

When someone asked about their relationship, Chloe always avoided the topic. As for Su Heng, perhaps because of his strong aura, no one dared to mention such private matters in front of him.

Jiang Man was busy finishing the work, with so many trivial matters, and was very busy. At this moment, she received a call.

"What did you say? No... He didn't..."

Before she finished speaking, she didn't even say hello, but ran to the door with her phone in hand.

Because he had an important appointment in the afternoon, Su Heng left early. He looked around habitually, but did not see Jiang Man.

He called the person in charge to ask, and the other party also said that he didn't see anyone.

Su Heng frowned. Although this woman was not smart enough, she was quite serious about her work and would not leave early easily.

He walked out while talking on the phone. A nervous voice came from the other end of the line: "Xuanxuan...Xuanxuan was picked up by a stranger at the kindergarten! I have to go over and check it out right now..."

As Jiang Man spoke, his voice began to crackle with tears.

Su Heng's heart tightened and his brows knitted together: "Wait for me, I'll be there soon!"

When Jiang Man rushed to the kindergarten, she didn't expect that Su Heng had arrived before her and was already retrieving the surveillance video at the door.

Teacher Li kept blaming herself: "She took out Xuanxuan's birth certificate, so I had to believe her. However, the responsibility is mine. I didn't clarify this matter. I'm really sorry!"

Jiang Man had no time to listen to her explanation. She hurried to Su Heng and asked in a trembling voice, "Did you find it?"

Su Heng stared at the surveillance screen and nodded slowly.

Jiang Man took a look and saw an elegant woman in the picture taking Xuanxuan into the car. Who else could it be but Mrs. Lu!

Jiang Man was already in tears at this moment. No matter who she was, if anyone dared to hurt her son, she would never let it go!
