Mother Lu sighed deeply and said helplessly, "Ziyin, how many times have you asked me to repeat this? Why are you still holding a grudge against a woman who betrayed you, deceived you, and even colluded with outsiders to plunder our Lu family's assets? There are many women who are more outstanding than her. As long as you are willing, Mom will immediately..."

"Mom," Lu Ziyin interrupted impatiently, "I have my own ideas about my own affairs."

Mother Lu frowned. "What do you think? You're almost completely bewitched by her. Do you think I don't know?"

Lu Ziyin raised his eyes, a look of displeasure on his face, "You sent someone to monitor me?"

"Alas, do we still need surveillance for something like this?" Mother Lu said bitterly, "You finally survived that accident. You should cherish what you have today! Do you want her to hurt you again?"

Lu Ziyin's brows furrowed even tighter. "That accident was an accident and had nothing to do with her."

Although this statement was objective, it was extremely harsh to Mother Lu's ears. "She has done so much, and you don't hate her?"

"hatred."

This time, he answered firmly without any hesitation.

Hearing this, Mother Lu's expression finally softened a bit. "Ziyin, no matter what you think, if you want to be with her, as long as I'm here, I won't agree!"

Mother Lu issued an ultimatum, and Lu Ziyin stood up irritably, "Okay, I get it."

Mother Lu looked at him and smiled motherly again. "Are you used to working here? Do you want me to talk to Director Li and get you a more relaxed position?"

Lu Ziyin's face became even more unhappy. He turned to look at his mother and said, "Mom, please don't interfere with my work. I got this position based on my own ability. I don't want to rely on your connections for a higher position."

"Haha," Mother Lu laughed. "Great, great, my son knows how to rely on his own abilities. As his mother, I can't tell you how happy I am!"

The mother and son talked for a few more words, and then Lu's mother left.

As she walked out of Lu Ziyin's office, the smile on her mother's face instantly vanished, her expression darkening to a terrifying degree. She made a phone call as she walked, then took the elevator downstairs and headed straight for the underground parking lot.

Not long after Mrs. Lu got into the car, a man hurried over. He came to the front of Mrs. Lu's car, slowly lowered the window, and said respectfully, "Mrs. Lu."

"Xiao Chen, have you found out anything?" Mother Lu asked coldly.

Xiao Chen looked around, then took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it in through the car window. After that, he left quickly without saying a word.

Mother Lu opened the envelope in confusion. Inside was a document and some photos.

When she saw the woman in the photo, Lu's mother was furious. She held the photo tightly in her hand, almost crumpling it into a ball.

This shameless woman! I let her go and let her take her illegitimate child away! Now, she's trying to seduce Ziyin! I won't let her go this time no matter what!

Early in the morning, after sending her children to the school bus, Jiang Man stood on the roadside and waved with a smile. She didn't look at her watch until the school bus was far away, and then she hurried to the bus stop.

Because it was Monday, there were a lot of people waiting for the bus. When the bus she was going to take arrived at the station, a group of people rushed to get on. Jiang Man, who was petite, was squeezed to the edge of the crowd and could not get on the bus no matter how hard she tried.

Watching the bus full of passengers, the doors closing, and driving away from her, Jiang Man dropped her shoulders helplessly and had to wait for the next bus.

A black Rolls-Royce was driving smoothly on the road.

The man sitting in the back seat was wearing an exquisite dark suit, a spotless white shirt, and a light-colored tie, which added a bit of softness to him.

Su Heng flipped through the documents in his hand, carefully reading each page.

Perhaps because his eyes were a little tired, he raised his head and looked out the window casually, his fingers gently pressing his eyebrows. At this moment, a familiar figure suddenly entered his sight.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, remained silent for a moment, and then suddenly spoke.

"Stop at the bus stop."

"Yes."

The driver looked at the situation behind him through the rearview mirror, then stopped the car in front of the bus stop.

Such a black luxury car parked here naturally attracted a lot of attention. Some people recognized the car model and even whistled at it.

Jiang Man turned his head and was also stunned when he saw the car.

This car... looks so familiar.

When she saw the series of 8s on the license plate, she immediately recognized it as Su Heng's car. At this moment, the back door was pushed open from the inside, but no one got out, as if they were waiting for something.

Jiang Man looked around and it seemed that she was the only one who could be related to the car owner.

She took slightly hesitant steps, and under the gaze of everyone at the bus stop, she walked over suspiciously and peeked into the bus, "Mr. Zhao?"

Su Heng frowned, as if he thought she was too slow, and said in a deep voice, "Get in the car."

"Oh."

When Jiang Man got into the car and the door closed, she could faintly hear the crowd behind her talking, "Hey, if only I had a boyfriend who drove a luxury car to take me to work..."

As the car pulled into the driveway, a blush crept into her cheeks.

Su Heng was completely absorbed in his work, unperturbed by the outside world, his head still buried in the documents in his hands. The atmosphere in the car was almost stagnant. Jiang Man sat quietly beside him, his eyes vacantly cast out the window, fiddling with his fingers boredly.

His deep gaze inadvertently swept across her slender white fingers, and a hint of playfulness inadvertently raised his brows, "Where's the ring?"

"what?"

Jiang Man didn't react for a moment and looked confused.

"The ring I gave you." He repeated, his voice low and strong.

"Oh! That!" Jiang Man suddenly realized and quickly explained: "That ring is too expensive! Xiao Zheng said it costs a million! If I lose it, I can't afford to pay for it! So, I left it at home."

Hearing her answer, Su Heng slowly raised his head, and a layer of faint indifference covered his handsome face.

"Did I ask you to pay?"

"This one……"

Jiang Man thought about it carefully and realized that this was indeed not the case. But just because he didn't say so, if it was lost, she might still have to pay for it!

Su Heng stared at her with his indifferent eyes, as if he wanted to see through her thoughts. "Or do you think your shabby house is safe enough to store a ring worth more than two million?"

"Two... million?!"

Jiang Man felt a suffocation in her chest and breathing became difficult. She urgently wanted to open the car window to get some fresh air, even if it was just to take a breath of turbid air!

Oh my god, two million! How many years would it take for her to work without eating or drinking to earn that?

She stared with a pair of clear and bright eyes, and her words became stuttering, "Boss Su...you make me afraid to even sleep!"

Seeing Jiang Man's bewildered look, Su Heng returned his gaze to the document and said stiffly, "If you lost it while wearing it on your wrist, you don't have to pay a penny. But if you lost it somewhere else, you have to pay according to the price."

Hearing this, Jiang Man turned around and was about to open the car door, "Ah! Can you take me back to get the ring?"

A barely perceptible smile quietly emerged at the corner of Su Heng's cold mouth...
