Like the New and Dislike the Old - Chapter 44
Lin Qianshan laughed, then felt wrong, and pressed his left hand to his lips. But the smile came so violently that he couldn’t control himself at all.
Although he forced himself to shut his mouth, his shoulders trembled and the white skin on his face turned red. He laughed like this for a while, then gradually calmed down. Then, as soon as he looked up and saw Mu Yi looking at him speechlessly, he suddenly remembered the joke and fell into a frantic laugh again.
He just laughed like this for a long time, his breathing was not smooth, and he barely calmed down.
Mu Yi poured him a glass of orange juice speechlessly, and shook his head. I really don’t understand how his smile is so low, how to keep his face serious?
The countdown to the New Year’s Eve is being broadcast live on TV at this time, and Mu Yi asked: “Is it really okay if you are not with your family at this time?”
“My family is full of people now.” Lin Qianshan picked up the orange juice, “They probably didn’t realize that I was missing.”
A bunch of stars stood together on TV and counted down.
“5!”
“4!”
“3!”
“2!”
“1!”
Lin Qianshan leaned over, holding the orange juice, and shouting amidst the sound of fireworks: “Happy New Year!”
Mu Yi looked at him, picked up the cup and touched him, “Happy New Year.”
At this time, the Su family was also beaming. Su Man was detained for many days, and was finally released after the Chinese New Year. The four of them had a New Year’s Eve dinner together. Su Man took this opportunity to say a few good things, hoping that Su Jianguo would stop freezing her bank account.
Su Jianguo was in a good mood today. After drinking some wine, he sat at the table and said to Su Man slightly drunkly: “Manman, Dad didn’t want to shut you down. Dad loves you too. You are really disobedient. “
Although she disagreed with Su Jianguo’s words, Su Man still lowered her eyebrows and confessed her mistake, “I already know that I was wrong, dad, don’t be angry.”
“Oh.” Su Jianguo stretched out his hand, and Su Man quickly put it in his hand, “You have to be obedient. Tomorrow Dad will take you to meet your friends. You have to behave better.”
Su Man became stiff, knowing that Su Jianguo was going to take her to see her marriage partner, so she resisted from the bottom of her heart.
Su Cheng persuaded from the side: “Manman, are you unwilling? You shouldn’t. I remember when you were with Lin Qianshan, you didn’t refuse.”
Su Man didn’t say a word, his heart said that could it be the same? Lin Qianshan has known each other since he was a child, and he is so good, even if he doesn’t love him, he won’t be too forced to be with him. But this time is different, who knows what demons and ghosts Dad will introduce to her.
After thinking about it, Su Man also wants to open up. The family background chosen by his parents must be good, and he can develop it slowly without feelings.
The Su family went out the next morning. Su Man didn’t expect much. After the meeting, the man was unexpectedly okay. Although not very handsome, he has a good temperament and a good figure.
She breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the two adults talking with a smile.
The other side’s mother took Suman’s hand and gave Suman a diamond necklace, with a look of affection saying: “I like this child Manman when I was a child. I even held it when I was born. Be her mother-in-law.”
Su Man smiled shyly, the man himself is good, and the future mother-in-law is also good, she thinks this is also not bad.
When she returned home, Su Jianguo didn’t keep her anymore. She was finally able to go out and was in a good mood, so she started contacting the little sisters to go shopping.
These girls like to compare. Su Man and Lin Qianshan had been married and had children before, but they were envious and jealous. When they knew that the marriage contract was dismissed, Su Man didn’t dare to see them during that time, because he was afraid of seeing them gloating in the eyes.
Today Suman dressed up specially and went to meet people with brilliance.
Seeing a group of girls gathered from a distance, she smiled and said hello, “Where do you want to go to play today?”
The women glanced at each other and looked at Su Man curiously, “Manman, I heard that you are going to be engaged to Cheng Jie?”
The news was pretty well-informed. Su Man’s face was calm, pretending to be surprised, “Ah, how did you know?”
“I just wanted to meet each other.” Su Man raised his chin slightly to make the necklace around his neck more conspicuous. “But Ajie’s mother said that she liked me very much, and she gave a very expensive gift when she met for the first time. She values me so much, I can’t refuse.”
As she spoke, she looked at everyone with some pride, Jiang Lili on the right suddenly laughed, “Manman, don’t you think you have anything special, Cheng Jie’s mother pays attention to everyone.”
When Jiang Lili said so, everyone except Su Man laughed.
Su Man was confused and barely maintained a smile, “What do you mean?”
“Cheng Jie is gay.” Wu Xue smiled the most exaggerated. “As long as he is willing to marry a woman and go home to inherit the family, no matter who it is, his mother is very happy. Why don’t you know? No, it’s not a secret. Your parents should know.”
…
Su Man didn’t know how she got home. She walked into the house desperately. The servants at home were cleaning, and she stumbled to the ground under her feet.
The servant hurriedly helped her to sit down on the sofa and asked with concern if she had broken something.
She paled and asked, “Where are my parents?”
“Mrs. and Mrs. have gone out, and haven’t come back, and the young master hasn’t come back. Miss, would you like some water?”
Su Man shook his head and let her go.
She just waited until dark, Su Jianguo and Xie Lan came back together. She was shocked as soon as she entered the house, Xie Lan walked over in surprise, “Manman, what’s the matter with you? Why do you sleep on the sofa?”
Su Man sat up, looked at her parents, tears rolled down, “Mom, Cheng Jie is gay, he is gay, oh oh…”
She burst into tears, but saw Su Jianguo and Xie Lan black faces at the same time, but there was no unexpected expression.
Su Man was horrified, “You…have known it a long time ago?”
Su Jianguo didn’t answer her, but said: “Your complexion is not good, go back to your room and rest.”
“How can you do this!” Su Man screamed, “How can you let me marry a gay!”
Xie Lan was guilty of not looking at Su Man’s eyes, but her tone was very assertive, “It’s not all because you were divorced by Lin Qianshan. Lin Qianshan suspended the cooperation project with the Su family, and the company will soon be unable to continue. Now that no one but the Cheng family is willing to help us, do you want to watch your parents go bankrupt and the family sleep on the street?”
Su Man looked at her incredulously, “I am your daughter, my life’s happiness is ruined by marrying Cheng Jie.”
Su Jianguo said impatiently: “You married and gave birth to a grandson to the Cheng family. You are the great hero of their family, and your life will only be better than now.”
“How do I have a baby with a homosexual?!” Su Man’s expression has changed from shock and grievance to resentment, “Why should I sacrifice for this family while my brother can do nothing?”
“You bastard!” Su Jianguo was furious and slapped him over.
Su Man was slapped and couldn’t stand, but fortunately, there was a sofa behind her. She did not fall to the ground.
Xie Lan rushed to hold Su Man in her arms distressedly, but did not blame Su Jianguo, but softly persuaded Su Man, “We have discussed with the Cheng family, and you will get a test tube after you marry, as long as you are willing to have children. The Cheng family will treat you well.”
Dinner is very easy and I received news from Lin Qianshan, which was a joke, Lin Qianshan also asked her if she was funny.
Mu Yi put down the phone, raised his head and sighed with a blank eye.
Remembering that she regretted last night, and after exchanging Happy New Year, because the atmosphere was so good, she said that Lin Qianshan smiled low. Lin Qianshan was very unconvinced, saying that it was just an accident before, and he would definitely not laugh if Mu Yi said another joke.
But he overestimated himself too much. Even though he had been mentally prepared, every time Mu Yi told a joke, he couldn’t control himself with a smile.
In the end, Mu Yi was tired and let it go. Lin Qianshan refused to admit defeat. It was funny to say these jokes, and no matter who listened to it, they would disappear.
Mu Yi said, I didn’t laugh.
Lin Qianshan said, this is because you have known these jokes in advance, and of course you will not laugh. He declared war on Mu Yi and would definitely find a joke that Mu Yi hadn’t heard before, to prove that Mu Yi’s laugh was not high.
After reading the joke, Mu Yi put down the dishes and chopsticks without any fluctuations in his heart, and took the garbage from the kitchen downstairs to throw it away.
As soon as the elevator door opened, she saw Suman with red eyes and a slap on her left face.
The two were stunned at the same time. Mu Yi was surprised. For a while, Su Man had already bowed his head and got into the elevator without knowing what to do.
What happened to her on New Year’s Day? Mu Yi was surprised, and then realized that he slapped his thigh and regretted it. Su Man almost killed her before. She had made up her mind a long time ago. When she saw Su Man again, she must make her look good, but she missed it in a daze just now.
She must have gone to find Xin Zhao. Mu Yi threw out the trash and touched it quietly and went up to the 13th floor. As soon as I got out of the elevator, I heard a cry in the corridor.
“Are you so unfeeling? Didn’t you say that you only loved me in your life?” Suman’s hysterical voice echoed in the corridor.
Mu Yi didn’t dare to go there for a while, she turned her head to look secretly.
I saw Su Man standing in front of Xin Zhao with tears on his face, and Xin Zhao standing in front of his house, blocking Su Man from entering.
“That was before.” Xin Zhao’s voice was calm, “before you said you only love me, but while you are with me, you are engaged to other men. You even hurt others because of the man you don’t love. , I found that I didn’t know you at all before, and the girl I loved was just the Suman I imagined.”
“Have you changed your mind?” Su Man stared at him firmly.
Xin Zhao obviously didn’t want to talk to her more, so he said coldly: “If you say it changes, then change it.”
Su Man stared at him resentfully, then his expression softened, and he took Xin Zhao’s hand and cried, “I already know that I was wrong. I really only love you. Can you take me away? If you don’t believe it, I can get married with you tomorrow.”
Xin Zhao firmly took out his hand. He pushed Su Man gently and said before closing the door: “Tomorrow the Civil Affairs Bureau will not go to work.”
Then he closed the door, leaving Suman venting curses in front of the door.
