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

Jiang Man pulled Bai Xue to the desk and handed her a USB drive: "I'll copy some information for you first."

Bai Xue took the USB drive and whispered, "Sister Manman, are you going to work in the villa from now on? That's too extravagant!"

Jiang Man chuckled: "This is Pu Lao's villa. It's empty anyway, so I use it as an office."

Bai Xue stuck out her tongue: "Rich people are so willful!"

At noon, Jiang Man's phone vibrated. He glanced at the caller ID and said to Bai Xue, "I have something to do at noon. I won't have lunch with you."

Bai Xue gossiped, "Is it Mr. Su?"

Jiang Man took the bag and stood up: "You were led astray by Xiao Zheng, it's Lu Ziyin."

"Ah! It's him!" Bai Xue showed an "I understand" expression and watched Jiang Man leave.

In the coffee shop, Lu Ziyin was sitting by the window. When he saw Jiang Man come in, he stood up and greeted him.

Jiang Man smiled: "Sorry, I'm late."

Lu Ziyin's eyes never left Jiang Man: "We didn't have a good chat at the last banquet, so I asked you out today. I didn't expect...you would agree."

Jiang Man smiled elegantly: "It's been so long since we last met, why should I refuse? However, my lunch break is only one hour..."

Lu Ziyin was puzzled: "Are you helping Mr. Pu? Are you so busy with work?"

Jiang Man nodded: "I just came here to help him and am still in the familiarization stage." The two of them tacitly agreed not to talk about work anymore.

Lu Ziyin looked at Jiang Man: "Jiang Man, I think between us..."

Jiang Man took a sip of tea and said, "We are just friends. Apart from that, there is no relationship."

Lu Ziyin was disappointed: "Is it because of Su Heng?"

The next morning, Jiang Man arrived at the villa. Bai Xue brought him coffee and teased him with a smile, "What happened yesterday? You looked haggard..."

Jiang Man was puzzled: "Is there?"

Bai Xue pointed to the mirror, and Jiang Man saw his tired face in the mirror.

"I didn't get enough rest yesterday." Jiang Man muttered with his head down.

Bai Xue sat down opposite and asked excitedly, "Because... Pu Jing?"

Jiang Man took a sip of coffee and said, "He wanted to recruit me to his company, but I refused."

"that's it?"

"that's it."

Bai Xue raised an eyebrow: "That's... President Su!"

Jiang Man sighed: "Yes, I ran into him."

"You two don't..."

Jiang Man glanced at her and said, "No!"

Bai Xue said after a while: "He must be very busy recently."

Jiang Man turned his head: "Su Heng?"

Bai Xue sighed softly, "Xiao Zheng said his father is in the hospital and his condition isn't optimistic. He's running back and forth between General Su Hospital and the company, and it's very tiring."

Jiang Man was stunned, and the image of Su Heng with dark circles under his eyes appeared in his mind: "So that's how it is..."

At this time, the phone on the desk rang. Jiang Man picked up the phone and heard Zhou Rou's voice: "Is this Miss Jiang? I'm Zhou Rou."

Jiang Manyi was surprised: "Mr. Zhou? Are you looking for Mr. Pu? I'll go right away..."

"No." Zhou Rou chuckled. "I came to see you. I heard you've returned to China. I'd like to invite you for afternoon tea. Are you free?"

Jiang Man raised his eyebrows. Pu Caiwei came over and sat opposite him. He glanced at the phone and nodded.

Jiang Man pursed his lips and said to the other end of the phone: "Okay..."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Man looked at Pu Caiwei: "Zhou Rou contacted me and wanted to know about your situation through me. We have no intersection with her. This woman is dangerous. Are you sure you want to contact her?"

Pu Caiwei smiled calmly: "Just because we don't have a relationship now doesn't mean we won't have one in the future. You can go meet her and just consider it as a chance to gain some experience and practice."

Jiang Man nodded: "I understand."

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Man came to the private club and Zhou Rou was already sitting by the window.

Jiang Man stepped forward: "Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Rou looked up and smiled: "Jiang Man, you're here."

Sitting down opposite Jiang Man, Zhou Rou looked at her and praised after a moment: "You are like your mother, making people feel comfortable."

Jiang Man was surprised: "You know my mother?"

Zhou Rou picked up the teacup and said, "Your mother Pei Fei and I were childhood friends. We grew up in the same alley. We haven't been in touch much since we started our own families."

Jiang Man had never heard his mother mention Zhou Rou, but he said calmly, "Really? What a coincidence."

Zhou Rou sighed: "I'm busy with my career and haven't seen my childhood friend for a long time. How is Pei Fei now?"

Jiang Man politely responded: "My mother is doing well, thank you for your concern."

"My daughter is so outstanding and she is valued by President Pu. I am so proud of her."

Jiang Man didn't respond, knowing that Zhou Rou was really interested in Pu Caiwei.

Zhou Rou continued, "Boss Pu has very strict requirements. You are young and inexperienced. If there is anything you don't understand, I can give you some advice."

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou." Jiang Man said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

The two chatted for a few more words, and Zhou Rou re-examined Jiang Man. Jiang Man returned to the villa and told Pu Caiwei about the conversation.

Pu Caiwei smiled and said, "You have to be prepared. There will be many similar situations in the future."

Jiang Man responded with a smile, and Pu Caiwei said, "Su Zeqi is in the hospital. Please go visit him for me this afternoon."

Jiang Man hesitated: "Mr. Pu..."

Pu Caiwei interrupted her: "This is work."

Jiang Man said no more.

In the luxury private ward, Su Zeqi wanted to drink water, but there was no one around. He reached for the cup, but knocked it over. Jiang Man came in holding flowers, put them down and helped him clean up.

Su Zeqi saw that it was Jiang Man: "It's you?"

Jiang Man didn't respond. He took a new cup, poured warm water into it, inserted a straw, and brought it to Su Zeqi's mouth.

Su Zeqi looked at her coldly: "Put the cup away! I don't need your help!" Then he turned his face away.

Jiang Man was helpless: "I came to visit you on behalf of Pu Lao."

Su Zeqi ignored him, and Jiang Man said, "Then I'll go back and tell Pu Lao that you don't want to see him."

Su Zeqi called her out sharply: "Come back! When did I say that?!"

"Then drink the water." Jiang Man handed the cup over again, and Su Zeqi finally took a sip.

The nurse came in to clean, and Jiang Man followed her out: "Excuse me, what's wrong with Mr. Su?"

The nurse glanced at the ward: "Kidney failure, complications caused by food poisoning."

Jiang Man frowned: "Why is no one taking care of him?"

"Mr. Su doesn't like outsiders staying in the ward."

Jiang Man continued to ask: "Where are his relatives?"

"Only my son comes over after get off work. My wife used to come over, but she hasn't shown up in over a week." The nurse sighed, "He's so sick, but there's no one around. It's pitiful."

Jiang Man stood there with a heavy heart, turned and walked towards the ward.

Jiang Man walked into the ward quietly. Su Zeqi fell asleep on the cushion. Jiang Man covered him with a blanket and walked to the sofa to sit down. At this time, Su Zeqi opened his eyes and coughed dryly: "Help me get a cup of water."

Jiang Man picked up the water cup, helped Su Zeqi up, and fed him some water. After Su Zeqi finished drinking, he closed his eyes to rest. Jiang Man sat down on the sofa and read the newspaper.

There was a knock on the door, and Lu Jie's voice came: "Uncle Su, I'm here to see you." The door was pushed open and Lu Jie came in.

Su Zeqi felt better when he saw Lu Jie: "Girl, if I'm not here, where else can I be?"

Lu Jie stuck out her tongue, put the fruit away, and stood beside the bed: "I haven't been here for a few days. I was worried that my uncle would be discharged from the hospital."

"How can my illness be cured so quickly?" Su Zeqi responded with a smile.
