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

Jiang Man didn't expect Su Heng to help her block the wine. She glanced at him secretly, feeling mixed emotions.

"It's rare for President Su to be so straightforward, let's do it again!"

Someone was about to toast again, but Su Heng raised his hand to stop them, saying, "There's no need to rush for good wine. We have a long way to go." He stood up and said, "I have another dinner to attend, so I'll be leaving first. Everything tonight is mine, please enjoy yourself."

"Oh, Mr. Su is so polite!"

"Boss Su is so generous every year, how can we feel good about it!"

"As you should." Su Heng instructed Manager Jiang again, "Make sure to entertain everyone well."

"Boss, don't worry!"

Su Heng turned and left the private room. The rest of the people became even more enthusiastic and discussed whether to go to the hot springs or sing next.

Jiang Man sat there feeling very uncomfortable, but he couldn't leave early. He could only force a smile and silently calculate the time in his heart.

Just then, her cell phone rang.

"Hey?"

Su Heng's cold voice came from the other end of the phone: "Give the phone to Manager Jiang."

Although he didn't understand his intention, Jiang Man still handed the phone to Manager Jiang.

Manager Jiang took the phone with a puzzled look on his face. When he heard Su Heng's voice, he immediately sat up straight and nodded repeatedly into the phone. Finally, he returned the phone to Jiang Man with a strange look in his eyes.

"Um..." He cleared his throat and said, "Jiang Man, I just remembered that I need a report for tomorrow's meeting. You should go to the company and make it now."

Jiang Man was stunned. When she saw Manager Jiang winking at her, she immediately understood something.

"Okay, manager. I'll go back to the company right away." She stood up, grabbed her bag, and smiled apologetically at the people at the table: "Sorry everyone, I have to go back to work overtime."

Several people complained, "This is too much!"

"That's right! It's already so late, and you still want the girl to go back to the company to work overtime!"

Manager Jiang smiled and said, "It can't be helped. Tomorrow's meeting is very important." He waved his hand and said, "Jiang Man, go now."

"Ah."

Jiang Man walked out of the private room and finally breathed some fresh air. He felt that the discomfort in his stomach was relieved a lot.

After going downstairs and entering the lobby, her eyes were instantly drawn to a very familiar car.

That was Su Heng's luxury car. The black body shone with a low-key and luxurious luster, with smooth lines. It was parked at the door in a domineering manner, making it impossible to ignore it.

Jiang Man approached slowly, his steps slightly hesitant.

She was about to go around it, but at this moment, the car door opened silently.

"Get in." The man in the car ordered briefly.

A hint of hesitation flashed across Jiang Man's brows. He took a step back involuntarily and shook his head gently: "I'd better take a taxi back."

The moment she saw Su Heng, she had guessed everything. That phone call was undoubtedly carefully arranged by him to make her leave early.

But no matter what his motives were, she always kept a certain distance from this man.

"Don't make me go down and invite you in person." Su Heng had obviously lost his patience. His black eyes seemed to be able to swallow everything, blending into the night, weaving into an invisible net that bound her tightly.

"You--" Jiang Man bit her lip, a stubborn feeling surged in her heart. She suddenly opened the car door and got in angrily.

"Drive." Su Heng ordered briefly, then closed his eyes and rested, as if she didn't exist at all.

Jiang Man sat in the car and sensitively realized that this was not the road to her home.

"Where are you taking me?" She nervously leaned close to the car door, ready to jump out and escape at any time.

Su Heng frowned, displeased with her overreaction.

Is he that scary?

"Grandma wants to see you." He finally spoke, with a hint of imperceptible tenderness in his voice.

When mentioning Grandma Su, Jiang Man's heart softened involuntarily. She couldn't refuse this kind old lady.

Seeing her silence and complicated expression, Su Heng cast his gaze out the window and said slowly, "The doctor said that grandma doesn't have much time left. During this time, I will do my best to fulfill all her wishes. Including getting married."

Jiang Man raised her head and listened to him quietly. Although his tone was calm, she knew that his heart must be full of pain.

After all, Grandma Su is his only relative in this world.

She sat up straight again and whispered, "As long as you don't act like last time... I'll do my best to cooperate with you."

Su Heng turned his head and looked at her deeply. After a long while, he slowly said, "I will remember this."

What should he remember? Should he stop crossing the line? Or should he remember the warmth and companionship she had given him...

Jiang Man didn't ask any further questions. She felt that it might be better to keep this distance as a stranger.

Soon, the two arrived at Qin's house.

Seeing another car parked at the door, Su Heng's face instantly turned gloomy.

That was Su Zeqi's car, which meant he was home too. Hearing the noise outside, Chen Mei came downstairs to greet them. As soon as she saw the two of them, she greeted them warmly, "Heng, you're back? Have you eaten yet? I'll ask the kitchen to prepare it for you..."

"No need." Su Heng interrupted her coldly, without even looking at her, and went straight upstairs.

Seeing the disappointment on Chen Mei's face, Jiang Man didn't know what to say. He just nodded politely and followed her upstairs. Unexpectedly, he ran into Chen Hao on the stairs!

Jiang Man shouted in surprise: "Manager Chen!"

Chen Hao was equally surprised. He patted his forehead and laughed, "Wait! You're the one who had a flash marriage with my eldest brother, aren't you?"

Jiang Man smiled awkwardly and nodded sheepishly.

Chen Hao looked at her in surprise. "I really can't believe it! How did you do it? You actually managed to deal with my icy brother?"

Jiang Man was even more embarrassed: "It's not that exaggerated..."

Chen Hao exclaimed in amazement: "It seems that my judgment was correct!"

At this moment, Su Heng's impatient voice came from upstairs: "Why aren't you coming up yet?"

"Oh, I'm coming." Jiang Man smiled at Chen Hao and quickly walked past him and went upstairs.

Chen Hao stared at her back thoughtfully.

A moment later, he went downstairs and saw his mother sitting alone in the living room, looking dejected. He sighed and walked over to her, gently hugging her shoulders: "Mom, don't be like this."

Chen Mei forced a smile and said with difficulty: "It's only natural that he hates me. It's just that it's unfair for you to be denied recognition since birth and have to bear your mother's last name..."

Chen Hao smiled nonchalantly: "No matter what my last name is, I'm still me. What does it matter?"

Chen Mei felt a little relieved that her son was so open-minded.

Jiang Man chatted with Grandma Su for a long time until almost dawn before she was ready to leave. Fortunately, Xuanxuan was at Aunt Yang's house, which made her feel a little relieved.
