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

Jiang Man was stunned for a moment and looked up at him.

He rarely called her name directly like this. Hearing her own name from his mouth, it felt a little strange.

"Have you still not recognized your own identity until now?" Su Heng ignored the employees walking by, his tone still as cold and inhumane as if he was not approaching human beings. "If you have forgotten, I don't mind reminding you again."

He turned around, his cold gaze falling on her: "You are my wife, Su Heng, the wife of the president of the Su Group, and the young lady of the Su family! Anyone who touches you is a slap in my face! Do you understand?"

Jiang Man froze in shock. Her heart beat violently at his powerful declaration. It had been a long time since she'd felt protected and cherished. At that moment, she even began to doubt whether their relationship was just a passing fancy. Even if it was, she hoped it would continue, never ending.

Jiang Man was shocked when he realized his thoughts.

She quickly lowered her eyes, unable to believe that she would have such thoughts about Su Heng!

Jiang Man was really scared. Su Heng and she were from completely two different worlds. They were only together temporarily because of a wrong intersection, and they would part ways sooner or later.

Seeing that she was silent and her head was still low, Su Heng raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you understand?"

"understood!"

Jiang Man quickly denied it. She didn't want to be controlled by the inexplicable emotions in her heart anymore. However, when she raised her head, she didn't dare to meet his eyes! The slightest touch would make her cheeks immediately red, and she hurriedly lowered her head again.

"So?" He waited for her answer.

Jiang Man turned his head to the side, his cheeks as red as fire.

Damn, she must be sick!

Su Heng stared at her, thinking she was being stubborn, and his face suddenly darkened: "Not bad, very good, very good. Now you have learned to raise objections."

He stood up slowly, his hands in his pockets. "I appreciate people who have different opinions. At least, it makes me feel that the process of conquest is less boring."

Jiang Man's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly raised his head and looked at him with misty eyes.

Did he misunderstand something?

Su Heng didn't want to talk any more nonsense and was about to leave. Jiang Man immediately stood up and pulled him back: "That's not what I think."

Su Heng didn't turn around, but just turned his head and glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, and asked calmly: "What do you mean?"

"I." Jiang Man was speechless for a moment. How could she confess to him something she herself didn't understand? So, she just stammered, "I have my own difficulties. I hope you can understand." Seeing his eyes getting colder, Jiang Man knew he was about to lose his temper. She quickly grabbed him and said anxiously, "I really have my own difficulties!"

Su Heng looked at her and suddenly said, "For Lu Ziyin?"

Jiang Man was stunned and quickly shook his head: "Of course not!"

After staring at her quietly for a long time, the domineering aura on Su Heng's body gradually dissipated. She was a simple woman. Perhaps he couldn't guess her thoughts, but he could tell whether she was telling the truth.

After a resolute denial, Jiang Man once again fell into deep thought. She decided to keep the phone call with Lu Ziyin deep in her heart, not wanting to cause him more trouble.

In fact, even if Lu Ziyin behaved in an extreme manner at this moment, she would endure it silently, but she would never tolerate anyone hurting her son!

"I can let her go."

The man next to him suddenly spoke. Jiang Man looked up at him and wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but under his gaze that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue and stood there stiffly, looking like the one who had done something wrong.

His eyes were half-closed, his expression cold and unparalleled, taking in all her discomfort, yet he calmly looked away. He said calmly, "But I will make her pay for her actions."

At this moment, Su Heng was cold and majestic, making it difficult to look directly at him. However, Jiang Man stared at him firmly, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. The long period of loneliness and helplessness had almost made her forget that the feeling of being protected was so warm and happy.

Su Heng's cell phone rang. He glanced down but didn't answer it.

Realizing that he was taking up his precious time, Jiang Man quickly said, "Go and take care of your business."

Su Heng turned his head and glanced at her, then stood up and took two steps. Jiang Man seemed to remember something and called him again: "Boss Su."

Su Heng stopped and glanced back at her calmly. Facing his gaze, Jiang Man suddenly became nervous, "I have a reservation tonight and I want to treat you. I want to treat you to dinner."

Perhaps it was because Su Heng's aura was too strong. Even with such an ordinary invitation, Jiang Man felt a little suffocated due to his inner nervousness.

The man across from me remained calm, his brows slightly raised. He turned his head again and said softly, "Okay."

After receiving his answer, Jiang Man felt a sense of relief. She stood there, looking at his back, and then she realized that her palms were covered with sweat.

As soon as the bell rang for the end of the evening, Xiao Zheng slid over in his chair, leaned over Jiang Man's desk, rested his chin on his arm, and excitedly suggested, "Xiao Manman, I know a new restaurant with super delicious dishes! Do you want to try it together?"

Jiang Man smiled slightly and said, "Go ahead. I have something to do tonight."

Seeing her packing her things swiftly, Xiao Zheng looked at her in confusion: "Something? What's going on? Are you going on a date?!"

Jiang Man was stunned and quickly waved his hands to deny it: "I don't have any date. It's just that I want to treat a friend to dinner!"

"Oh." Xiao Zheng immediately chuckled in a sarcastic tone and said slowly, "It's not easy to pluck hair from you!" Then, he turned away with a bit of jealousy, "I've known you for so long, and you haven't even mentioned treating me to a meal! I want to see who has such a big face that Miss Stingy is willing to pay for it!"

Jiang Man was a little embarrassed by what he said, but what Xiao Zheng said was true. He had helped her so much, but she had never formally thanked him. So, she asked cautiously, "How about I treat you again tomorrow?"

Xiao Zheng snorted and glanced at her with his narrow eyes, "No need, asking you to bleed twice a month is a sin!"

As she spoke, she slid the chair back to her own seat and packed her things unhappily, muttering, "Marrying a CEO is different. You actually take the initiative to treat me to dinner!"

At this moment, Xiao Zheng was like a child throwing a tantrum because he couldn't get his candy. Jiang Man wanted to say something else, but when he looked at the time, he immediately stood up, put on his bag, and said to Xiao Zheng's back, "Xiao Zheng, it's agreed that I'll treat you tomorrow!" After that, he quickly left.

Xiao Zheng turned his head, supported his chin with one hand, stared at the direction where she disappeared, his eyes narrowed, as if thinking about something.
