After dinner, someone suggested going to the KTV downstairs for some singing, and everyone jumped at the chance. Manager Lin was practically on the verge of tears. Seeing it was getting late, Jiang Man wanted to go home early to be with her baby, but Xiao Zheng kept pulling her away, his eyes wide. "At your age, you don't even have a social circle! You want to be an old maid? Even if I gave you the chance to marry into a wealthy family, would you know how to seize it? Would you be able to act like a spoiled child? Would you make him love you so much that he couldn't leave you?"

Jiang Man quickly interrupted, "Okay, I'll go!"

If she doesn't go now, she doesn't know what kind of unorthodox ideas Xiao Zheng will instill in her.

In the most luxurious KTV box downstairs, everyone was in high spirits, singing or playing dice to liven up the atmosphere. Only Manager Lin sat alone in the corner, drinking pitifully.

Jiang Man hadn't been to a place like this in years. She'd always gone with classmates, and back then, KTVs weren't nearly as upscale. Xiao Zheng tried to get her to sing, but she vehemently declined. After all, she only knew a few old songs, which would be embarrassing! Finally, Xiao Zheng grabbed the microphone himself.

At this moment, someone sat down next to her.

"Uh...Jiang Man..." Ke Hao blushed and stammered.

Jiang Man turned his head and looked at him, "What's the matter?"

But with just this one glance, Ke Hao lowered his head in shame, then picked up the wine on the table and drank it all. However, when he looked up again to meet Jiang Man's eyes, his breathing suddenly stopped and his cheeks quickly flushed. "I... I have to go to the bathroom..."

Jiang Man looked at his back as he fled in a panic, feeling a little confused for a moment.

Xiao Zheng returned and put his arm around her shoulder, "Are you really not going to show off your skills?"

Jiang Man smiled and shook his head, "It's good to listen to you sing."

Xiao Zheng was very proud: "I sang well, didn't I?"

"Yeah." Jiang Man nodded in agreement.

At this time, the door of the box was pushed open and several people walked in.

Manager Lin looked up weakly, and upon seeing the person coming, he instantly perked up, "Boss Su?"

Jiang Man and others were also surprised. They didn't expect to meet the CEO here!

Su Heng walked in front with his hands behind his back. His dark eyes looked even deeper and more mysterious under the dim light in the box.

Manager Lin quickly stood up and greeted him, "Boss Su, you're here too?"

"Receiving customers." Su Heng answered briefly.

"Oh! What a coincidence!" Manager Lin smiled.

Su Heng looked around and saw Jiang Man sitting there. She felt his gaze passing over her, making her feel uncomfortable and she didn't dare to look him in the eye.

"Department party?" Su Heng asked.

Manager Lin responded with a smile, "Yes, everyone has been working very hard lately. As a manager, I naturally have to reward everyone!"

Xiao Zheng whispered to Jiang Man, "Actually, his heart is bleeding!"

Jiang Man couldn't help laughing. Actually, Manager Lin was a nice person.

Su Heng nodded slightly, "You guys can have fun, I'll cover all the expenses."

As soon as these words came out, Manager Lin's eyes widened in disbelief. His expression instantly turned from gloomy to bright, and a smile blossomed on his chubby face. "Oh, Mr. Su, this... this is so embarrassing!"

Everyone cheered and the big boss paid the bill, which meant they could party to their heart's content!

Xiao Zheng praised: "This is a real man!"

Jiang Man didn't think much about it, but just felt that Su Heng didn't seem so arrogant at the moment.

Manager Lin said a few more words of thanks, and then invited Su Heng to join the party. To everyone's surprise, he readily agreed.

Manager Lin was flattered, "Boss Su, please take a seat!"

The atmosphere gradually warmed up. Manager Lin asked others to leave first. Su Heng walked slowly over. As his steps got closer, Jiang Man unconsciously looked away, secretly glad that there were no empty seats on either side.

At this moment, the song Xiao Zheng ordered started playing, and Xiao Zheng excitedly raised his hands: "Mine! This is mine! Everyone, get out of the way!"

Xiao Zheng suddenly stood up and rushed over there.

Jiang Man was stunned, watching the seat next to her being occupied again. Her body was stiff and her eyes stared straight ahead.

Su Heng crossed his legs and placed one hand casually on his knee. His fingers were long and slender with distinct joints, and his pinky ring was particularly eye-catching.

Perhaps because of the scent of his cologne mixed with tobacco, Jiang Man opened his eyes wide, motionless, and his breathing became disordered.

Su Heng seemed to be enjoying this rare moment of tranquility. Manager Lin was attentive and attentive, serving tea and water. He waved his hand, "Don't worry about me. Do whatever you want."

"Yes, yes, yes." Manager Lin then sat aside.

Jiang Man watched Xiao Zheng singing at the top of his lungs in front of him, but he felt like he was being stabbed in the back and wanted to escape from his presence immediately!

Unfortunately, things went against his wishes. Su Heng spoke up at this moment, "A villa halfway up the mountain... a limited edition sports car... a bank balance... are these your criteria for choosing a partner?"

Jiang Man shuddered all over and turned his head slowly. Su Heng half-closed his eyes, his gaze slightly deep, and the corners of his lips, which were usually tightly pursed, were rarely raised at this moment.

Did he hear everything?

Jiang Man had never expected that Su Heng would actually take Xiao Zheng's joke to heart! When asked about it again, she felt embarrassed, fearing that she would be misunderstood as a money-worshipper.

She just shook her head slightly, and said in a very low voice: "It's just a joke between colleagues."

Su Heng did not comment, but slowly lit a cigarette, skillfully held it between his fingers, and took a light puff.

His smoking posture was very elegant, which was Jiang Man's sincere evaluation from the bottom of his heart.

It is rare for a man to be able to interpret something as ordinary as smoking with such charm, but Su Heng can interpret this simple act like a gorgeous stage performance.

He slowly exhaled a smoke ring, and the smoke carried a faint minty fragrance that was not choking.

He glanced at Jiang Man and said calmly, "If there really is a man who can provide you with these, will you accept his proposal?"

Jiang Man widened his bright eyes and quickly denied: "How is it possible!"

She couldn't help feeling depressed. Why was he still questioning her materialism after all this roundabout way?

Su Heng took another drag on his cigarette. As he was puffing, the door to the private room suddenly opened. Ke Hao had obviously drunk quite a bit. He staggered, his eyes blurry, but he walked towards Jiang Man with determination. In his red eyes, there was only Jiang Man's figure.

Seeing Ke Hao, Jiang Man was subconsciously stunned. She seemed to realize something in his firm and fiery gaze and wanted to avoid him, but she was afraid of making things worse and attracting more attention.

She turned her head away awkwardly, looking towards Xiao Zheng, deliberately avoiding looking at Ke Hao who was walking towards her.

Some people had already noticed the commotion and were making faces and making noises. Ke Hao ignored them all and, under the influence of alcohol, mustered up the courage to walk up to Jiang Man and, with a plop, knelt on one knee.
