Chapter Twenty-Three: Coming and Going

Liang Yuan told him about Liang Zhi. Lu Xiaohua replied to her: "I will go and discuss this matter with Mr. Liang Zhi." I'll tell Miss Yu Man when the results are out. ”

Speaking of this, he raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and then said, "I still have something to do, so I'll miss it first." ”

With that, he strode away.

Liang Yuan looked at the back of him leaving, and thought to herself, doesn't Yu Man have a husband, how can she feel as if she has a leg with this person?

Yu Man's voice rang out at this time: "You just go back and wait for the news." Mr. Lu will not break his promise on what he promised. ”

Liang Yuan nodded and thanked him repeatedly. After a while, she asked, "Miss Yu Man, how did you meet Mr. Lu?" ”

"He, he has business dealings with my husband's family, and he gets acquainted with each other after coming and going." Yu Man said this casually, picked up the teacup on the coffee table, and drank the tea.

As soon as Su Yuebai arrived at the company that day, she heard several colleagues getting together to discuss Liang Yuan's affairs.

"I heard that Liang Zhi withdrew the lawsuit? Is it true? A middle-aged woman dressed as an aunt said in a low voice.

"Wouldn't it? Actually withdrew the lawsuit? She slandered Mr. Liang Zhi like this before, and he actually withdrew the lawsuit? The male colleague next to the middle-aged aunt looked surprised.

"I guess it's something to do with it."

"Maybe I slept with some rich businessman, and then I ......"

Su Yuebai couldn't listen to it anymore, stretched out her hand and knocked on the door of the company, and then said to those colleagues seriously: "During work hours, don't talk about things that have nothing to do with work." ”

"Yes, editor-in-chief." After several people responded to Su Yuebai, they returned to their desks and got to work.

Su Yuebai sighed silently in her heart, and then walked into her private office.

Liang Yuan's incident has a lot of impact, because it is involved with the wealthy businessman Liang Zhi, and the popularity of the news has been high. In comparison, not many people paid attention to Yu Man's slander of her plagiarism.

Moreover, at Gu Tingchen's request, Yu Man has publicly apologized for slandering and plagiarizing her. The impact of this incident is actually very small.

Su Yuebai was thinking about how to reduce the impact of the scandal caused by Liang Yuan, when she suddenly heard a ringtone on the mobile phone on the desktop.

She picked up her phone, and the screen showed that it was a call from Jiang Shi.

She pressed the answer button with some confusion: "Is there something wrong?" ”

"You hurt my heart so much. We've known each other for so many years, and as soon as you hear the phone, you ask me if I'm okay, can't I look for you if I'm fine? Jiang Shi's voice came from the receiver of the mobile phone.

Su Yuebai couldn't help laughing: "Big brother, I'm at work." ”

"I know you're at work. Are you free after work? Let's go to the bar and have a chat. ”

"Okay, no problem. Just tell me the address. I'll talk about it when the time comes, I'll work first. After saying these words, Su Yuebai hung up the phone.

In the evening, the elegant bar is filled with soft music.

As soon as Su Yuebai entered the door of the Qing bar, she saw Jiang Shi sitting at the bar, drinking cocktails alone. She walked over quickly, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, "Arrived so early?" I got off work pretty early today. ”

"I'm off today." Jiang Shi turned around and smiled at her.

The bartender came over at this time and asked Su Yuebai what she wanted to drink, and she replied, "You can just ask for a glass like his." ”

As she spoke, she pointed to the cocktail in Jiang Shi's hand.

"It's such a coincidence, Yuebai and you're also there?" Su Yuebai had just finished answering the bartender when she suddenly heard Yu Man's voice behind her.

Su Yuebai turned around and saw Yu Man walking towards him. She frowned, turned around and asked Jiang Shi next to her, "You also asked her out?" ”

Jiang Shi shook his head: "No." I only made an appointment with you. ”

While the two of them were talking, Yu Man had already walked to the position next to Jiang Shi and sat down: "Bartender, I want a glass of Bloody Mary." ”

"Yu Man, how are you doing?" Jiang Shi also heard a little about the matter between Su Yuebai and Yu Man.

"It's fine." Yu Man picked up the wine brought by the bartender and drank it down.

Jiang Shi actually just wanted to ask Su Yuebai to come out to talk, and after saying hello to Yu Man, he no longer paid attention to her, but turned his head to talk to Su Yuebai.

"Yuebai, I heard that you have been with Gu Tingchen recently?" When Jiang Shi spoke, he stared at Su Yuebai.

"It's just a rumor from the outside world." Su Yuebai didn't expect Jiang Shi to ask herself such a private question, and she felt a little awkward at the moment.

Jiang Shi turned his head and drank the wine in the cup in silence before he spoke again: "Yuebai, what are your plans for the future?" After a pause, he didn't wait for Su Yuebai to speak, then said again, "I mean, are you going to have a boyfriend?" ”

"I don't have any plans to do that just yet." Su Yuebai was already displeased.

"Actually, you can think about mine." Jiang Shi suddenly reached over and grabbed the back of her hand.

The moment the skin touched, Su Yuebai quickly withdrew her hand, and then her tone became cold: "I said it, I have no plans to have a boyfriend for the time being." ”

"Yuebai, I'm not overpowered." Jiang Shi saw Su Yuebai's expression of resistance, and his heart was a little sad. I have known her for so many years, why did she end up giving birth to other men?

Su Yuebai glanced at his expression, and just wanted to speak, but heard him say again: "I just have always liked you." ”

The music of the Qing Bar was changed to a low lyrical one at this time, which was quite appropriate to the occasion with his words.

As soon as she was thinking about how to politely reject him in her heart, Yu Man's voice floated into her ears: "Brother Jiang, come and dance with me?" ”

Just now, while the two were chatting, Yu Man ran to the dance floor to dance slowly. She didn't feel like she was enjoying dancing by herself, and now she wanted to pull Jiang Shi to dance with her.

Su Yuebai had never welcomed Yu Man's arrival like she did at this moment. At that moment, she looked at Yu Man with a smile: "You go dancing with Yu Man, I'll pick up the two children and go home." ”

Afraid that Jiang Shi would keep herself, she added another sentence: "I still have to work overtime tonight to catch up with a manuscript, and the magazine will need it tomorrow." ”

When Jiang Shi saw her say this, he had no reason to keep her anymore, so he immediately said, "Okay, then let's make an appointment next time." ”

Yu Man stretched out his white lotus-like arm at this time and hooked Jiang Shi's neck: "Then let's go dance now." Now the background music is suitable for pas de deux. ”

Su Yuebai waved her hand to them, then turned around and left the Qing Bar. Jiang Shi was appointed because Man pulled himself to the dance floor.

When the music started, Yu Man reached out and hugged Jiang Shi's waist and stepped on the dance steps.

Jiang Shi is actually not used to being so intimate with women, and his body is a little stiff at the moment.

"I can't see it, Brother Jiang is quite shy." Yu Man teased.

The two danced in silence for a while, and Yu Man suddenly said, "Do you remember those happy times we used to have together? ”

Jiang Shi asked with some confusion: "Once upon a time, how long ago did you mean?" ”

Yu Man and Su Yuebai were good friends before, Jiang Shi has always pursued her, naturally loves Wu and Wu, and is not bad for Man.

It's just that Yu Man was aiming at Su Yuebai's boyfriend at that time, and he never thought about him. Jiang Shi's conditions were too ordinary, and Yu Man didn't bother to waste time on him.

But things are not quite the same now. Su Yuebai is so close to Jiang Shi, if she can pull Jiang Shi to her side, then it will be much easier to do things next.

"It was when I was still good friends with Yuebai." When Yu Man said this, he deliberately pretended to be sad, "Actually, the matter between me and He Ming is not as rumored by the outside world. ”

Jiang Shi didn't know what to say for a while.

"He Ming said that he liked me before he was with Yuebai. But then he couldn't contact me, and after being with Yuebai, he realized that we were good friends. And then we walked together. I know I'm sorry for Yuebai, but my feelings are really out of my control. ”

When Yu Man said this, he actually cried.

Jiang Shi is the person who is most afraid of women crying in his life, and when a woman cries, he will be soft-hearted. At that moment, he hurriedly comforted Yu Man and said: "Yuebai will understand one day, time will dilute everything." Besides, everyone's life has moved forward so much, Yuebai will be relieved sooner or later. ”

Yu Man shook her head desperately, tears dripping as she shook her head. She sobbed quietly for a while, and simply rested her head on Jiang Shi's shoulder.

"Yuebai won't forgive me...... No matter what I do, we can't go back to the way things were. Yu Man said sadly again.

Her plan is to play the role of a painful and wanting to redeem her best friend to win Jiang Shi's sympathy.

Su Yuebai walked out of the Qing bar and walked to his car. As soon as I opened the car door to get in, I heard the phone ringing in my pocket.

She picked up her mobile phone and saw that it was a call from Gu Tingchen.

As soon as he pressed the answer button, Gu Tingchen's voice came from the receiver of the mobile phone:

"You haven't gotten off work yet? I've already made dinner. Both children are clamoring for dinner, so come over to me. ”

"Okay, I'll go over here." After Su Yuebai replied to this sentence, she realized that it was wrong, and then asked, "You made dinner?" What did you do? ”

The other party seemed to be a little dissatisfied with her surprised tone: "What, is there a problem with the dinner I cooked?" ”

"Absolutely. It's just that you said you couldn't cook. Su Yuebai said as she got into the car and sat in the driver's seat.

"I invited a chef from a star-rated hotel to teach me these days. I'll talk about what to come back to. Speaking of which, he hung up the phone without waiting for Su Yuebai to answer.

When Su Yuebai drove the car to Gu Tingchen's private villa, Su Xiaobai ran out, knocked on the car window and said loudly: "Mom, you're off work, we've been waiting for you for a long time!" ”

Su Yuebai smiled at her and got out of the car through the other door of the car. She just wanted to go to Su Xiaobai's side, but she didn't expect Su Xiaobai to run over first and hugged her thigh: "Mom, I miss you very much, I'll go home with you tonight, I want to sleep with you!" ”
