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

Chapter 178 Remind Mom to Drink Soup

"I just asked him to keep an eye on you." Su Heng said with a smile.

"Then you don't need to tell him about things like nourishing yin and replenishing the body." Jiang Man was speechless.

"Hmm?" Su Heng paused, then smiled and said, "I just mentioned it casually."

Jiang Man was choked and speechless.

"Are you calling just to question me?" Su Heng asked slowly in a low and magnetic voice.

"No." Jiang Man lowered his head and hesitated for a moment, "I just want to ask you, are you coming back for dinner today?"

"Yeah." Su Heng's eyes flickered slightly, and he agreed without thinking too much, "Okay."

"What do you want to eat?" Jiang Man asked.

"Whatever." He said calmly, but what he said next made Jiang Man almost drop his phone. "Bullwhip is not bad either."

Jiang Man fell on the bed, "Can't you eat something normal?"

"I'm thinking of you." There was a smile in his voice.

"I don't need it." Jiang Man said gritting his teeth, but he couldn't refute him.

She pinched her eyebrows, knowing that he was busy, "Come back early." She finally said softly.

Su Heng was stunned, "Okay."

After that, she hung up the phone. Su Heng looked at the phone. This girl was getting bolder and bolder. She actually dared to hang up on him?

"Lin Ze, please cancel the dinner for me tonight," he ordered.

"Yes." Lin Ze responded respectfully from the side.

Su Heng leaned lazily in the chair, and for the first time he felt a little bit of anticipation to go home.

Towards evening, an uninvited guest came to Jiang Man's home.

Jiang Man looked at Lu Zinyin standing at the door. She thought that after what happened before, they would have nothing to do with each other from then on, but she didn't expect that he would come to her again.

"Is there something wrong?" She forced a smile but couldn't. She still had complicated feelings towards Lu Zinyin.

"Manman." Lu Ziyin called softly, without the viciousness of the previous times, and there was a hint of tenderness in her voice.

Jiang Man was shocked, "Boss Lu, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm sorry about what happened last time." He looked at her with sincere apology in his eyes.

Jiang Man frowned slightly, not knowing how to respond to him.

"Can you please forgive me?" His voice was gentle and sincere, and Jiang Man didn't know how to refuse for a moment.

Xuanxuan looked at the two of them curiously, "Uncle, did you make Mom unhappy?" he asked puzzledly.

Lu Ziyin squatted down and touched Xuanxuan's head. "Yeah, do you have any ideas?"

Xuanxuan glanced at Jiang Man and said, "I don't know. If Xuanxuan does something wrong, as long as he cries, mom won't be angry anymore."

He smacked his lips and said, "Uncle, why don't you cry too? Maybe mom will forgive you."

"Really?" Lu Ziyin smiled slightly, then put on a crying face and stood up holding Xuanxuan. "Manman, can you forgive me?"

Jiang Man clenched his hands, "Mr. Lu, you don't have to be like this."

"What do you want me to do to forgive me?" His eyes fell on her lightly.

Jiang Man bit her lip and said, "I was indeed abrupt last time. There's no need for Mr. Lu to apologize."

"Then..." Lu Ziyin paused, "Tomorrow is my birthday, I want to invite you to my birthday party."

"I..." Jiang Man wanted to refuse, but couldn't find a suitable excuse.

"Don't worry, I don't have any thoughts about you." He put Xuanxuan down and expressed her concerns.

"Since Mr. Lu has invited you so warmly, how can you refuse?" A familiar voice came from the door. Su Heng had been standing at the door without him noticing.

Xuanxuan looked back and ran over happily, "Uncle Su!"

Su Heng took Xuanxuan into his arms and asked, "Did you remind your mother to drink that bowl of soup?"

Xuanxuan nodded vigorously, "Yes! Mom drank it all!"

As soon as these words came out, Su Heng looked at Jiang Man with great interest, slowly walked to her side, and said softly, "You say one thing and mean another."

Jiang Man's cheeks flushed slightly. "That's called thriftiness."

"Yeah." Su Heng responded without exposing her.

"Mr. Lu, are you planning to stay for dinner?" Su Heng held Xuanxuan and sat at the dining table, glancing at Lu Zinyin coldly.

Lu Ziyin shrugged, showing no intention of leaving. "Sorry to bother you then."

Jiang Man blinked. Why did he feel that the atmosphere between these two men dining at the same table was a little subtle?

At dinner time, Jiang Man served the soup that Su Heng had requested as instructed.

Su Heng tasted the soup with a faint smile on his face, "What? Do you think what I said makes sense? So you made the soup specially?" He whispered in Jiang Man's ear.

Jiang Man's ears felt hot, but he pretended to be calm and said, "I just want to drink."

"Oh?" Su Heng responded. Jiang Man drank the soup with red cheeks and almost buried his head in the bowl.

Xuanxuan, who was sitting at the end of the table, swallowed and asked loudly, "Uncle Su, is the soup delicious?"

Jiang Man's cheeks flushed again.

Su Heng nodded, "Not bad."

Xuanxuan curled his lips, looking dissatisfied, "Then why doesn't mom let me have a taste?"

As soon as these words came out, Lu Ziyin's eyes also focused on Jiang Man.

Su Heng chuckled, "If a child drinks this soup, he might wet the bed." He made up an excuse.

Xuanxuan nodded believing it, his face full of disappointment, "Okay."

Lu Ziyin took a sip of the soup and immediately identified the ingredients. His eyes became increasingly gloomy. "I have something else to do. I'll take my leave now." He stood up and pursed his lips.

Su Heng took another sip of soup and said, "Mr. Lu, take care." He spoke slowly, with a smile on his lips but his eyes were cold.

Lu Ziyin felt that his voice was particularly harsh, and left with a sullen face.

After dinner, Jiang Man cleaned up the dishes.

Sitting in front of the TV, watching the soap opera boredly, Xuanxuan was lying on the ground fiddling with his car.

"Do you watch these every day?" Su Heng raised his eyes and glanced at the TV screen.

Jiang Man nodded, yawned, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes, "It's boring."

Hearing this, Su Heng closed his notebook, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Let's do something less boring."

Jiang Man turned his head, looking confused, "What's not boring?"

"Xuanxuan, can you go to bed by yourself later?" Su Heng did not answer her, but turned around and asked Xuanxuan.

Xuanxuan tilted his head, "Yes!"

"Then Uncle Su and Mom will go do something else." After saying that, he stood up and walked to Jiang Man.

Xuanxuan blinked in confusion, "What are you doing?"

"Uncle Su is sick and needs your mother's care." Su Heng said seriously.

"Oh." Xuanxuan nodded, not quite understanding, "Then I'll lend my mother to you."

Jiang Man sat on the sofa, opened his mouth, and "sold" her out.

"Ms. Jiang, do you still want me to treat you?" Su Heng narrowed his eyes and looked at Jiang Man who was still sitting on the sofa in a daze.
