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

She didn't want to say anything more, so she smiled at him and turned to go back to the office, but Ke Hao held her tightly and begged her: "Jiang Man, can you think about it again? You can raise any request you have!"

Jiang Man frowned and tried to break free from his hand: "I'm sorry... We really can't..."

"Don't be so arbitrary! You don't even want to try. What you said is unfair to both of us! How do you know you won't fall in love with me?"

Ke Hao seemed to be trapped in an obsession. What he believed was destined. Her rejection was simply because she didn't give him a chance!

Jiang Man was a little anxious because of his pestering, and shook his hand away forcefully: "Ke Hao, I'll say this one last time, I'm married, I have a husband! Therefore, it's impossible for me to have feelings for you!"

Ke Hao stood there, staring blankly at her running figure, his heart deeply hurt.

It hurts.

Jiang Man ran back to the office and went straight back to his seat, ignoring the gossiping looks of his colleagues.

Xiao Zheng came over and asked, "Is it solved?"

She nodded, although the process was quite tortuous.

She opened her phone and was about to get some office supplies when Xiao Zheng suddenly screamed, grabbed her hand, stared at the diamond ring on her ring finger, and exclaimed, "Chaumet?!"

Suddenly, almost all the female colleagues gathered around and stared at the ring on Jiang Man's hand: "Really?"

"Is it really Chaumet?"

Xiao Zheng glanced around disdainfully: "This is my favorite brand, how could I possibly be mistaken?"

Someone else asked curiously: "Jiang Man, is this a gift from your husband?"

Jiang Man gritted his teeth and nodded stiffly.

Since Su Heng said that this ring was the compensation he owed her, then it shouldn't be too much to use it to temporarily deal with the current situation, right?

"Wow! How much does this one cost?"

Although the Lu family was considered wealthy, Jiang Man had devoted all his energy during his year there to caring for Lu Ziyin. He had very few material needs and didn't care about brand names. Naturally, he didn't know Chaumet, let alone the price. However, judging by his colleagues' reactions, the ring must be worth a lot.

Xiao Zheng smiled proudly and said, "Without a million dollars, you can't even touch a diamond this big!"

"Hundred...million? That's so expensive!"

As everyone exclaimed, Jiang Man was also surprised and couldn't close his mouth.

Why is the ring so expensive?

Instantly, the surroundings were filled with envy, "Jiang Man, what does your husband do? He's so rich!"

"Yeah, you usually look quite... plain. I didn't expect you to marry such a rich husband. You really are quite a hidden talent!"

Jiang Man didn't know how to respond and could only smile awkwardly. Even those colleagues who usually had little interaction with Jiang Man became unusually enthusiastic at this moment.

At this moment, Ke Hao walked in from outside with a disappointed look on his face. He glanced over here, and after hearing them talk about Jiang Man marrying a rich husband, his eyes gradually dimmed. He returned to his seat silently, as silent as if he didn't exist.

Manager Lin walked in, saw the scene, and immediately said, "Are you all not working?"

These people immediately dispersed, and Jiang Man was able to breathe a sigh of relief, but his first thought was to take off the "time bomb" in his hand!

Millions! If something goes wrong, she can't afford to pay for it!

But the strange thing is that this ring seems to have grown on my finger and I can’t take it off no matter how hard I try!

Xiao Zheng looked at her and said, "Don't waste your energy. You can't take it off! Because this is Chaumet!"

Jiang Man's fingers were rubbed red, but he couldn't take the ring off, so he had to give up in the end.

After Manager Lin finished instructing his colleagues on their work, he came to Jiang Man and said, "Jiang Man, please go to Huamei later. We have already made a quotation based on the conditions they provided. Please send it over, listen to their opinions, and come back to give us feedback."

"Ok."

Without wasting any more time on the ring, Jiang Man went to Manager Lin to get the quotation and rushed to Huamei.

She approached the relevant department head and was about to hand him the quotation when she was told that the general manager had already stated that he would be directly responsible for the entire project. This meant that the quotation needed to be reviewed by him first.

Jiang Man had no choice but to go find Lu Ziyin. Standing in front of his office door, she seemed a little hesitant when knocking on the door.

After hearing a response from inside, she gently pushed the door open and walked in.

"Mr. Lu," she stood opposite him, looking at him, still feeling as if she were in another world.

Lu Ziyin didn't look up, but asked calmly: "What's the matter?"

Jiang Man placed the quotation sheet on the table and said, "This is the quotation our company has made based on the conditions you provided."

Hearing this, Lu Ziyin picked it up and looked at it, "Can it be lowered any further?"

"This is the lowest offer we can give." Jiang Man said with certainty.

Lu Ziyin glanced through it and then placed it lightly on the table. "The cost is too high, which is stressful for both parties. We should cut as much as possible."

"Ok, I see."

When Jiang Man picked up the quotation sheet on the table, Lu Ziyin's eyes, which were originally half-closed, suddenly widened when she saw the diamond ring on her finger.

He stared at the ring intently and could faintly hear his heavy breathing.

He raised his eyes and stared at Jiang Man with cold eyes, "Are you married?"

Jiang Man was subconsciously stunned for a moment, and only reacted when she found him staring at her ring, "I..."

"Okay." Lu Ziyin suddenly interrupted her, as if not wanting to hear her answer. She stood up, walked to the farther floor-to-ceiling window, and said expressionlessly, "You can go back now. Next time, I want to see a quotation that satisfies both of us."

Jiang Man looked at him deeply, then turned and left.

Lu Ziyin's handsome face was gradually filled with anger, and finally became distorted. He clenched his fist and smashed it hard against the glass opposite, making a dull sound.

I didn't know how long I was stunned like that, until the assistant pushed the door open and said softly, "Director, Mrs. Lu is here to visit."

Lu Ziyin slowly looked up. A face shrouded in worry was reflected on the windowpane. He took several deep breaths, slowly calming himself, and then turned around. Just then, an elegantly dressed, graceful middle-aged woman entered the room.

"Mom," Lu Ziyin walked forward and smiled at her gently, "Why did you come to visit so suddenly? You didn't even call me in advance."

Mother Lu smiled and sat down, her eyes wandering over her son. "If I hadn't come, how would I have known what my son was going through?"

There was something hidden in her words. Lu Ziyin lowered her eyes slightly, "Mom, what do you mean?"

"You have seen that woman Jiang Man, right?" Lu's mother asked directly.

Lu Ziyin just raised his eyebrows slightly and said nothing.
