The straw bag beauty is on the rise

After the blind date, Chang Yanzhi was very concerned about the result of the blind date, so she kept asking about the progress in WeChat.

Li Man didn't reply for the time being, because she wanted to go to Song's house and make it clear with Chang Yanzhi.

She originally thought that she could be patient first and take it slowly, but after a real blind date, Li Man still couldn't deceive her heart, and it was too uncomfortable for her to pretend to cooperate like this.

Short-term pain is worse than long-term pain, let’s just say it clearly.

Even if Chang Yanzhi is angry and wants to cut off her pocket money now, then she has nothing to worry about.

After all, Li Man has a small treasury.

With such thoughts in her heart, Li Man took action.

When she arrived at Song's house, she went directly to Chang Yanzhi.

In fact, most of the time, Chang Rouge has nothing to do, that is, drink tea with people he knows, go shopping at exhibitions, and occasionally buy jewelry and new clothes.

Chang Yanzhi has a lot of free time, and she has been paying attention to Li Man's blind date today, so she didn't go anywhere, just waiting at Song's house.

After waiting for Li Man to arrive, she immediately walked over, very concerned about Li Man's situation.

"How is it? How are you getting along with the girl from the Shu family?"

Li Man sighed helplessly, "Miss Shu is a very nice person, but I don't think we are suitable."

Chang Yanzhi was a little surprised, "You don't even think such a condition is suitable? What kind of condition do you want?"

I have to say that at this moment, Chang Rouge really behaved very similar to those traditional parents.

Li Man sighed again, "Whether you are compatible with a person, or whether you like it or not, these have nothing to do with conditions."

Chang Yanzhi didn't pay much attention when she heard the words, "That's fine, if you don't think it's suitable, you can change it, I still have Miss Li here."

Li Man: ...

"Mom, I have something I want to tell you."

Chang Rouge nodded, "Say it."

Li Man encouraged herself from the bottom of her heart, "Actually, I think it's good if you let me fall in love freely."

Chang Yanzhi disagreed when she heard it, "It is impossible for me to agree. As for the reason, I have told you before. And Manman, feelings can be cultivated."

Li Man didn't hide anymore: "But I already have someone I like."

When Chang Yanzhi heard this, her eyebrows twitched, and she looked at Li Man in surprise, "What, do you have someone you like?"

Li Man nodded cautiously.

Chang Yanzhi frowned, "You...are you an unlucky boy, you, why didn't you tell me you have someone you like? If I had known this, I wouldn't have arranged a blind date for you and made you look like a scumbag."

"..."

Seeing that Chang Yanzhi was not too angry, Li Man was relieved, thinking that her nerves were too sensitive.

She smiled and took Chang Yanzhi's arm, "I'm afraid you won't agree, so I dare not say it."

Chang Yanzhi snorted softly, "I'm not the head of a feudal family, so why are you afraid?"

Li Man touched the tip of her nose without commenting.

Chang Yanzhi: "It's good to have someone you like, then I'm too lazy to help you find someone. Tell me, who do you like? Which family's child?"

Li Man got stuck.It's not fun to say.

She turned her eyes and said vaguely: "You don't know me even if I tell you."

Chang Yanzhi snorted: "Let me tell you, there is no one in our class that I don't know."

Li Man was a little helpless.

But what Chang Yanzhi said is true, and the person she likes is indeed from this class, but... this cannot be said.

After all, Song Chuji's identity is too special, especially when it comes to Li Man can only hide this small thought deep in her heart, and can't tell it even if she is killed.

Otherwise, not only Chang Yanzhi's side, but also Song Shangyan's side, and even Mr. Song and the Tang family, she would not be able to pass that test.

Li Man bit her lip lightly, but she was thinking that she finally found someone she likes, but now it seems that it is very difficult.

She couldn't even pursue it, so she was forced to give it up.

Li Man didn't show any abnormality on the surface, "This... I haven't caught up yet, so it's hard to say."

Chang Yanzhi rolled her eyes, "What's the matter, tell me who it belongs to, and I'll help you make suggestions."

Chang Yanzhi's words are not in vain, after all, she herself is an example.

Li Man paused, "Actually, what I like is not someone from our circle, but... an employee of the company."

As a last resort, Li Man fabricated a lie.

After saying this, the atmosphere fell silent.

Li Man was a little worried about Chang Rouge's reaction.

"Mom, I know you want me to be good, but the relationship is not based on family background or economic conditions, but on how the person is. Are you right?"

Li Man was afraid that Chang Rouge would get angry.

In fact, after hearing Li Man's answer, Chang Yanzhi was indeed subconsciously angry at first, but quickly controlled it.

After all, Li Man hesitated and dared not answer before, and Chang Yanzhi was prepared in her heart, so she guessed it, so she was not surprised.

"People from the company..."

Li Man bit the bullet and nodded.

After a while, Chang Yanzhi thought about it on her own.

"also."

Li Man: "Huh?"

Chang Yanzhi was thoughtful, "Those who can enter the Song family must have some ability and ability."

She gave Li Man a sideways glance, "Shouldn't it be an intern?"

Even though she was an intern, she was much better than Li Man, but Chang Yanzhi still didn't want to see Li Man find an intern with an unknown future.

Stared at by Chang Yanzhi, Li Man subconsciously said: "It's not an intern, it's not an intern! I've achieved the position of manager!"

After regaining consciousness, Li Man only wanted to beat herself to death.

Chang Yanzhi's eyes lit up, "Oh? Manager? That's really good, how old are you?"

Li Man was speechless for a moment, and had no choice but to continue: "Be older than me..."

Chang Yanzhi narrowed her eyes, "Thirty or forty?"

Li Man coughed: "No, uh, around thirty."

I'm sorry, but she called Song Chuji old.

But Li Man really didn't dare to tell the truth, otherwise it would be a disaster if Chang Yanzhi guessed the real candidate.

So she could only deal with Chang Yanzhi's pressing question with half truth and half lie.

Fortunately, Chang Yanzhi only asked for some common information, and didn't really get to the bottom of it.

Chang Yanzhi had a smile on her face, "Hearing you say that, I feel relieved a lot. Now that you have someone you like, I won't arrange blind dates for you anymore."

Li Man breathed a sigh of relief.

Chang Yanzhi: "It's just one thing, you have to be optimistic about people, don't be fooled."

Li Man nodded.

Chang Yanzhi smiled and said, "Work hard, come on."

Li Man smiled awkwardly.

After leaving the Song family, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, and even faintly felt that her back was sweating.

Dealing with Chang Yanzhi's cross-examination is actually a simple matter, but the key is that Li Man has a ghost in her heart, and that person must not be said, so she panicked.

Because of this, Li Man didn't dare to look at Song Chuji when she went to work the next day.

Song Chuji naturally wouldn't believe Su Fuxia's nonsense.

She is not the type to be easily deceived or irritated. No matter what Su Fuxia said, Song Chuji believed in the evidence at hand and what she observed.

At the same time, she also wanted to listen to Li Man's statement.

Maybe Li Man would lie, but... Song Chuji still believed her.

Of course, it's also about believing in yourself.

Li Man's dodge Song Chuji naturally found out, if it were a suspicious person, he might immediately think of the conspiracy Su Fuxia said, but for Song Chuji, it would not be the case.

After finishing the action at hand, she hesitated for a moment and knocked on the door of Li Man's office.

Li Man ran to open the door in surprise, "What's the matter, what's the matter?"

Song Chuji paused, "It's nothing, it's just... I'm free."

Li Man blinked.

Song Chuji didn't continue this slightly stiff opening, but asked along the way: "How is it now, are you still getting used to it?"

Li Man nodded hesitantly, but said: "Maybe, I'm still a little unaccustomed to it, but I think I can learn it quickly, give me a little more time, and I'll be fine."

It has to be said that Li Man himself has undergone a very significant change.

If it was before, she would never accept the challenges brought by the new environment so quickly. She must be like a weak flower who has just left the house, unbearable to withstand the wind and rain, and she definitely does not have such a strong will.

Not like now.

However, Li Man liked her changes very much.

Song Chuji bent his lips, "You seem to like your current life very much."

Li Man nodded, "You feel a little more fulfilled than before?"

Song Chuji chuckled, "Will you still miss the way you used to be?"

Li Man tapped her chin with her fingertips, "Occasionally I think about it, but I don't miss it that much."

Song Chuji lowered his eyes, and asked after a while: "Then...do you want to..."

Li Man looked at her curiously.

When he saw Li Man's black and white eyes, Song Chuji's words gradually stopped.

Li Man was puzzled: "What?"

Song Chuji pursed his lips, at that moment he couldn't look directly at Li Man.

At the same time, she also developed a dislike for herself.

It's clear that it's okay to listen to Li Man herself, but why does she subconsciously want to choose the method of probing?

Do you still not believe in Li Man?

And Song Chuji himself was tired of these.

She doesn't want to live as a scheming businessman who has no truth. She hopes that she can always be Song Chuji in front of Li Man.

Song Chuji's breathing changed, and then, as if throwing away some baggage, he directly said what Su Fuxia had said.

After Li Man heard this, she opened her eyes wide in astonishment, "This, what and what?"

The moment he saw Li Man's reaction, all the secret worries in Song Chuji's heart were completely let go.

She knew that she had guessed correctly, let alone believed wrongly.

Li Man's reaction at this moment gave her all the answers.

Of course, maybe Li Man may have unknowingly evolved her acting skills to the level of a movie queen, and she can be fooled at this moment.

But Song Chuji still believed in his own heart and his own judgment.

Li Man hurriedly said: "It's not what she said at all, Song Chuji, you have to trust me."

Song Chuji looked at her with gentle eyes, nodded slightly, "I know, I believe it."

Bathed in Song Chuji's eyes, Li Man's eagerness gradually eased, and her whole body was not so tense.

She loosened her fingers, and her eyelids moved slightly. At that moment, there was an illusion of warmth.

Li Man relaxed.

Song Chuji said: "It is precisely because I believe in you that I will ask directly, and I want to hear your explanation."

Li Man exhaled slowly and relaxed.

"Things are actually very simple..."

Li Man touched the tip of her nose and lowered her eyes.

Originally, she didn't dare to confess her sexual orientation in front of Song Chuji.

Because certain things, if done by the same sex and done by the opposite sex, have completely different effects.

This is similar to liking same-sex people of the same sex and liking people of the opposite sex.

Li Man was afraid that Song Chuji would find out if she confessed her sexuality.

Now she can't bear the consequences.

Although Jiang Xia once said to let Li Man test Song Chuji, but the possibility between them is too small, and there are too many obstacles, Li Man dare not even test.

Perhaps Li Man, who hadn't figured out what he wanted to do before, could bravely say that he would pursue Song Chuji after he made his mind clear.

But when she really wanted to understand her intentions, she didn't dare.

Thinking through means being timid.Li Man has always been a very timid person.

In fact, she hadn't thought of Chang Yanzhi's level, but based on her current identity and situation, it was already impossible for her and Song Chuji, so Li Man didn't dare to continue thinking about it.

Of course, now is not the time to talk about this, no matter what her relationship with Song Chuji is, it is impossible for Li Man to allow herself to be splashed with dirty water.

Li Man told about Chang Yanzhi's arrangement for her blind date.

She felt a little embarrassed: "Although...although I don't deny that Su Fuxia's guess is something that my mother and I used to do, but please believe that I definitely don't have such thoughts now! Mom is too!"

When Song Chuji heard that Li Man was arranged for a blind date, her gaze changed, but soon, she controlled the change in emotion.

Meeting Li Man's sincere gaze, Song Chuji slightly nodded, "I know."

Li Man breathed a sigh of relief, and carefully asked: "Then you are, do you trust me?"

Song Chuji smiled lightly: "I didn't doubt you too much at first."

Li Man thought about it, yes.

If he really doubted it, then Song Chuji would not ask directly.

Thinking of this, Li Man felt a lot of joy in her heart.

She smiled and narrowed her eyes, "Thank you for trusting me, Song Chuji."

Song Chuji bent his lips, "You're welcome."

Then, she mentioned another thing that she wanted to know urgently. Although Li Man had already said it, she still wanted to ask for proof.

"You... like the same sex?"

When this question was brought up, Li Man felt a little helpless.

She rubbed the tip of her nose and lowered her voice, "Yes, yes."

Strictly speaking, it's not true, she doesn't like the same sex, she just likes Song Chuji who is also of the same sex.But Li Man did not dare to say this.

She just whispered: "You, you won't dislike me because of this..."

If she had been more sincere, Li Man would have told Song Chuji very seriously and sincerely that she had absolutely no ill intentions towards her, but after all, Li Man could not say this.

Because you can't lie to your heart.

When Song Chuji heard the words, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and he quickly covered it up, "How could it be?"

She doesn't dislike it at all, on the contrary, she is only happy.

Song Chuji slightly bent his eyes, "I'm just a little surprised."

At the same time, it is also a surprise.

Only then did Li Man feel relieved.

Song Chuji asked tentatively: "Since Ms. Chang has arranged for you to have a blind date with Shu Xin, what do you think?"

This was also what Song Chuji was most concerned about.

She didn't want to lose her qualification to pursue Li Man the moment she learned that Li Man liked the same sex.

Li Man paused, "Ah... I feel like I don't get along very well with her, so it's better to be friends."

The fact is that she feels that even if she is just friends, she and Shu Xin are not very suitable.

Hearing this, the stone in Song Chuji's heart fell.

Her smile deepened two points, "Is that so, that's good."

The latter sentence was said so lightly and quickly that Li Man couldn't even catch it.

She looked up suspiciously: "Huh? What."

"It's nothing." Song Chuji said.

Li Man could only nod her head.Afterwards, she puffed her cheeks a little angrily, "Su Fuxia is really disgusting like this! It's a good thing you believe me, and it's a good thing I didn't do anything wrong to you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to clean up if I really jumped into the Yellow River gone."

And even if Li Man really didn't do anything, Guada Lixia's current identity and situation are indeed suspicious.

If Song Chuji didn't trust her that much, the two of them would definitely be provoked by Su Fuxia.

Thinking of this, Li Man was extremely angry.

Song Chuji naturally understood her feelings, she paused slightly, and reached out to press Li Man's shoulder, hoping that the other party would calm down.

"I didn't trust her, and, between her and you, I will always trust you, Li Man."

Li Man was startled, and the anger in her heart was instantly replaced by awkwardness and embarrassment, "Ah, ah...?"

Song Chuji said: "To me, she is an outsider. Even though she speaks sweet words and sows discord, you are the one I trust."

Li Man paused, a little embarrassed, but also moved.

"But her appearance like that is too irritating, I can't let her pay for any consequences..." Li Man muttered with some dissatisfaction.

Song Chuji smiled lightly: "No."

Since you have done such a thing, you will naturally have to pay the price.

Afterwards, Song Chuji found the Shu family and communicated about such matters.

After all, there is another character who appeared in the rumor target and that is the Shu family.

And the Shu family was also very angry with Su Fuxia's actions.Although they disdain to use intrigue to deal with it back, but in terms of business, they can indeed join hands to give the Su family some "retaliation".

Afterwards, the Su family lost several projects in a row, and their vitality was seriously injured. Of course, this is a later story.

But at this moment, Song Chuji was more concerned about Li Man's affairs.

Her eyes moved slightly, "Are you...already in a hurry to choose a blind date and engagement partner?"

Li Man blushed, "This, this, I'm actually not in a hurry."

She was a little embarrassed, after all, she looked like she was eager to get married.

Li Man touched the tip of her nose, "It's just that my mother is a little anxious."

Song Chuji asked nonchalantly: "I don't know what kind of expectations Ms. Chang has for your significant other?"
