Chapter 288 Revisiting the Past
Jiang Man smiled and looked down at her toes, "He proposed to me."
Chen Hao's eyes fixed, a hint of disappointment flashed across his face for a moment, but he quickly covered it up with a joking laugh. "No wonder you've been so cheerful lately. This is really great."
Perhaps even he himself felt that the smile was a little forced, and it gradually faded.
"If he treats you badly, I won't let him go!" After saying that, he turned and left.
Jiang Man stood there, looking at his back, feeling mixed emotions.
How could Jiang Man be so worthy of such an outstanding man's affection? So, forgive her for ending his relationship in this way.
A sigh startled her, and when she turned around, it was Manager Lin.
He shook his head and sighed, saying with some regret: "Actually, Mr. Chen is really a very good person. Alas, it's a pity that the flowers have their intentions but the water is not!"
"But," Manager Lin added, "if I have to choose someone as my partner, it would be Mr. Su. After all, Mr. Chen has been involved in a lot of gossip in the past, so he should find a steady man like Mr. Su. Haha, just like me, right?"
Jiang Man couldn't help laughing: "Yes, what you said makes sense."
Pu's house.
As Pu Jing stepped into the mansion, the old housekeeper whispered in his ear, "The master has been locked in the study since his return, and no one is allowed to disturb him."
Pu Jing raised his eyebrows slightly and hummed softly.
After knocking lightly on the study door, he pushed it open and walked in, striding out, "Dad."
Pu Caiwei was lost in thought at a photo in his hand. When he saw him, he frowned unhappily and placed the photo face down on the table. "Who let you in?"
He had always been cold towards Pu Jing, and Pu Jing had long been accustomed to it. Sitting opposite him, he said, "You are looking at her photos again."
Pu Caiwei's face darkened. He put the photo into the drawer and said, "That woman is back again?"
Knowing who he was referring to, Pu Jing shrugged, "She came back just for her old lover."
Pu Caiwei paused and looked at him, "Su Heng?"
Pu Jing didn't respond. Pu Caiwei sneered, "How ridiculous! You actually want to snatch a woman from him."
Pu Jing pursed his lips and slowly looked up at him, "Sometimes I really doubt whether I am your son."
"That's because he has qualities that you don't possess! They are qualities that you can never learn no matter how hard you try."
Pu Caiwei's words have devalued him to the point of being worthless, leaving no room for rebuttal.
Pu Jing smiled.
He raised his hands and clapped, then slowly said, "Sooner or later, I will make you pay for what you said!" After saying that, he stood up and was about to leave, but Pu Caiwei stopped him.
"No matter what, Wenwen is my grandson. Instead of following you, it's better for him to follow me."
"No need." Pu Jing didn't turn around and said lightly: "It's not someone else's turn to raise my son!" He slammed the door and left.
The old housekeeper walked in and said, "Master, why are you arguing with the young master again? Well, after all, we are father and son, why can't we talk it out calmly?"
Pu Caiwei was so angry that his face turned blue. He turned his head away and said, "I don't have a son who only wants to take shortcuts and not make progress!"
The old butler wanted to persuade him again, but he knew it was futile, so he just shook his head and sighed, and said nothing more.
After Su Heng left the airport, he arranged his official business in an orderly manner in the car and was about to meet Jiang Man and his son.
At this time, he received a call from Ding Xin.
"Heng, I have something to talk to you about."
"I'm very busy now."
Ding Xin smiled bitterly: "You don't even want to see me?"
Su Heng held the phone, took a deep breath, and decided to make things clear all at once: "I won't pursue the previous news about what happened. In short, let the past be the past. I don't want it to affect my current life anymore."
"I don't believe you have no feelings for me at all!" Ding Xin seemed to have drunk again on the other end of the phone, and her emotions became extremely agitated. "Ah Heng! Tell me, you still love me, right? Do you still have me in your heart?"
"Ding Xin, no one should mention the past anymore."
"I'm going to mention it!"
Ding Xin lost control of her emotions and roared at him, "Back then, I left because of you! It was all because of you!!"
Su Heng frowned suddenly, "You...what did you say?"
Ding Xin laughed exaggeratedly twice, and under the influence of alcohol, she spoke word by word, "Ah Heng, without me, you wouldn't be where you are today! So, you have no right to say you've forgotten the past, and you have no right to like another woman! Because, you owe me this!"
Su Heng's jaw tightened a little bit, and he narrowed his eyes. "Say it again."
"Heng, I'm so lonely now, can you come and keep me company?"
After reporting the address, the phone was quickly hung up.
Su Heng called again, but the phone on the other end was turned off. He frowned, gritted his teeth, and dialed again.
Soon, someone picked up the phone: "Are you here? Xuanxuan and I are preparing dinner."
Hearing this warm voice, Su Heng's heart warmed up, and his tone became much softer, "I'm afraid I'll be back late."
"Are you going back to the company?" Jiang Man said quickly, "It's okay, it's okay. Just go and do your thing. We'll wait for you to have dinner together."
Su Heng wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing. He hummed and said, "Don't let Xuanxuan go hungry."
Jiang Man smiled: "Okay, I get it. You're almost becoming a nanny."
He raised an eyebrow: "Are you laughing at me?"
"How dare I? It's just that your son is so obsessed with waiting for you to come back before he eats, and no matter how I try to persuade him, it's no use."
He nodded: "I understand, I will go back as soon as possible."
After hanging up the phone, the smile on his face never faded.
Lin Ze glanced at him in the car mirror. He had guessed what had happened from the two phone calls, so he asked cautiously, "Boss Su, where are we going now?"
In the bar, the curtain of night has just been opened.
When they arrived at the private room and pushed the door open, they saw someone lying drunk on the table. Su Heng frowned, strode over, and helped her up.
Ding Xin opened her eyes and saw him. Her red lips slowly parted, and she gently touched his face with her fingers: "Ah Heng, you're finally here."
He turned his head and let her lean back on the sofa, keeping some distance between them. "What do you want from me? Tell me."
Ding Xin clicked her tongue and shook her head: "How heartless."
"What on earth was that about what you said on the phone?"
All along the way, Su Heng was disturbed by her words "for him", and he vaguely sensed a hidden meaning. After all, they were so in love at that time, but she left without saying anything for her career. To be honest, he once hated her, hated her very much.
