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

The process of the elevator slowly climbing up seemed extremely long. Su Heng's brows were tightly furrowed. Obviously, he was quite impatient with this meaningless waste of time.

Xuanxuan turned his head again and looked at the uncle next to him, his big round eyes blinking.

The little guy's gaze was too intense for Su Heng to ignore. He lowered his eyes and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is there something you want to say?"

He was not good at dealing with children. Whether he was a relative or a friend, there were rarely any children around him. Therefore, he had no idea how to communicate with a child who was only four or five years old. His tone was stiff and a bit cold.

Xuanxuan shook his head and then turned his head away, but after a moment, he turned back and stared at him more seriously.

Su Heng's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he leaned over and asked, "Do you know me?"

Xuanxuan shook his head again and suddenly asked, "Uncle, how old are you?"

Although Su Heng was surprised, he answered without hesitation: "31 years old."

"Oh!" Xuanxuan nodded vigorously and began to count on his fingers, "31 minus 25... minus 25 equals... equals..."

Seeing that he was struggling to calculate, Su Heng gave the answer directly: "6."

"Yes, yes, yes! It's equal to 6!" Xuanxuan was very excited. After saying that, he stared at him intently, "Uncle, are you married?"

Su Heng narrowed his deep black eyes, suddenly finding it a little amusing. It was a rare occasion for him to be so elegant, so he put his hands in his pockets and replied leisurely, "No."

My relationship with Jiang Man...maybe it can't be considered a true partnership.

When Xuanxuan heard this, his two big eyes lit up instantly. He clenched his little fists and placed them on his chest. He asked excitedly and eagerly, "Uncle, do you have a job? The kind that can make money!"

Su Heng thought about it and nodded: "I opened a company."

"Yeah!" Xuanxuan cheered and said quickly, "Uncle, can I introduce you to a beautiful girl?"

Su Heng's lips curled up in a charming arc, "Beauty?"

"Yes, yes!" Xuanxuan was a little shy again, rubbing his little feet on the ground, "Uncle, do you like bringing children with you?"

"With a child?" Su Heng was amused by this and stared at the child with a frown.

"Yeah," Xuanxuan answered obediently, "Xiaopang said that if my mother gets married again, I'll become a burden."

Hearing such heartbreaking words in his childish voice, Su Heng frowned even more tightly.

When Chen Mei first married into the Su family, he was once called a "burden" by the naughty kids in the neighborhood. These three words were the deepest and heaviest pain for Su Heng as a child.

Looking at the little boy in front of me, I seemed to see my former self again.

Su Heng felt inexplicably distressed.

He slowly squatted down, looked at the cute little guy in front of him, and said word by word: "You must be your mother's baby, so stop calling yourself a 'burden'."

Xuanxuan blinked her clear eyes. Although she didn't fully understand what he said, she gave him a sweet smile, "I know!"

At this time, the elevator door slowly opened and Su Heng walked out of the elevator. Xuanxuan saw him and hurriedly grabbed the corner of his clothes, "Uncle, you haven't promised me yet!"

Su Heng was pressed for time as he had an important dinner at 8pm, but he remained silent for the first time. He stared at him and asked, "Why do you want to introduce your mother to me?"

When Xuanxuan heard this, he stuck out his tongue and said embarrassedly, "You found out~"

He lowered his head again and whispered, "It's hard for my mother to raise me alone. I want to find a rich man like the ones in TV dramas to marry her so that she won't be too tired."

The child's understanding easily touched the softest part of Su Heng's heart.

He said nothing, but raised his hand and gently touched his little head, "Sorry, I can't marry her." Seeing Xuanxuan's disappointed eyes, he pondered for a moment, took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over.

"Here's my personal phone number. If you have any difficulties, you can call me."

Xuanxuan happily held the business card given by Su Heng and treated it as a treasure.

“Xuan Xuan!”

Perhaps hearing his call, Aunt Yang opened the door.

"Grandma Yang!" Xuanxuan waved, then said to Su Heng apologetically, "Uncle, I have to go back."

Su Heng nodded.

Xuanxuan was reluctant to leave. He looked back every few steps and suddenly seemed to remember something. He quickly said, "Uncle, my name is Xuanxuan. Don't forget it!"

Su Heng rarely raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a very faint smile, "I remember it."

Xuanxuan then hurried over to Aunt Yang. Aunt Yang subconsciously glanced at Su Heng and saw that he had an extraordinary temperament and did not look suspicious at all. She did not ask any more questions. She just closed the door and told Xuanxuan, "Xuanxuan, don't sneak downstairs to play with the kids by yourself in the future, okay?"

Xuanxuan nodded sensibly: "Yes, I remember it!"

The door closed gently.

Su Heng was also a little surprised by his previous actions. The other party was just a child, but he gave him his personal contact information that he rarely revealed.

Perhaps, this child touched some memories deep in his heart that he wanted to bury.

Su Heng turned and walked to the other end of the corridor and rang the doorbell, but after waiting for a long time, no one answered.

He couldn't help but frown, took out his cell phone and dialed a number.

After the call was connected, he asked directly: "Where is it?"

On the other end of the phone, Jiang Man was a little surprised, but still answered truthfully: "Working overtime."

His brows furrowed even tighter. "Didn't I tell you I'd give you a day off today?"

"I have nothing to do at home, so I came to work."

He took a deep breath and nodded, "You are really Wan Tian's capable assistant."

Is this... a compliment?

Jiang Man was unsure and didn't dare to respond casually. He asked vaguely, "Boss Su, what do you want to talk to me about?"

His face darkened, "It's okay now."

After saying that, he hung up the phone without hesitation.

When they walked out of the building, Su Heng's face was gloomy. After getting into the car, Lin Ze turned around and asked, "Boss Su, where are we going next?"

It's only seven o'clock now, and there's still an hour before dinner tonight.

"...Go to Fu Ji."

&&&

Jiang Man, who was working overtime, stared at his phone in confusion.

He said "it's okay now", so there was something wrong just now?

What is going on?

At this time, several people walked out of the office opposite, discussing as they walked, "Let's just follow the content of the meeting just now."

"Ok."

Jiang Man's expression tensed up, and he quickly stepped forward: "Excuse me, is this Manager Li?"

The other person looked at her and nodded slowly: "I am."

"Great," Jiang Man finally smiled and handed over the contract. "Hello, I'm Jiang Man from Wantian Marketing Department. Manager Lin asked me to give you this contract."

Manager Li took the contract with a puzzled look and opened it. "Okay, tell Manager Lin that I'll give him an answer tomorrow."

Jiang Man smiled and said, "Well, I won't bother you anymore. I'll go back first."
