Everyone was talking quietly, all eyes were on the jade bracelet.
Zhong Man was at a loss.
To answer or not to answer.
She was already divorced from Shao Jing .
"Thank you grandma soon." At this time, a man's slightly smiling voice sounded behind him, with a warning.
Zhong Man frowned unconsciously and looked over subconsciously.
Shao Jingyan looked at her with a half-smile, as if to say: In front of so many people, how dare you make your grandparents unable to come to the stage?
She smiled bitterly in her heart, and finally accepted the jade bracelet obediently, "Thank you, grandma, for your approval."
Shao smiled happily and waved to Zhong Man, "Come on, grandma will put it on for you."
The jade bracelet contrasted with Yan Li 's fair and delicate wrist. When everyone looked at it, they couldn't tell whether it was the bracelet or the bright wrist that was more dazzling.
Shao Jingyan also lowered his eyes slightly, and his peripheral vision fell on Zhong Man.
She is really charming today, especially after wearing the jade bracelet, her whole person glows with radiance, which makes people pay attention involuntarily.
Unfortunately, her heart is no longer here.
"Grandma, you have forgotten that there are two of us." At this time, a clear female voice sounded outside the banquet hall.
Everyone followed the sound.
Zhong Man frowned.
She recognized this voice even if it turned into ashes .
Shaoning Xin, the youngest daughter of uncle Shao Jingyan , is the most arrogant and domineering young lady with a lot of money.
This Miss Shao has always been very dependent on Shao Jingyan. Every time she appeared in the past, Shao Ningxin would always be at odds with her, either humiliating her in public or bullying her secretly.
Therefore, Zhong Man had a bad impression of her.
Today, Shaoningxin still brings his brother, Shaoningqian .
"You two, why are you here?" Mrs. Shao and the old man looked at each other and saw the helpless smile in each other's eyes.
Shao with a happy heart and said coquettishly, "Grandma, didn't I just pick out a gift for you?"
Shaoningxin is bright and beautiful, with delicate and fair skin, but the most outstanding thing is her eyes, which are scorching and moving, with a flying look.
"Okay, quickly apologize to your grandparents." At this time, Shaoning Qian reminded.
He gave Zhong Man a good impression. He was a surgeon, with an upright appearance and a clear temperament, like a humble gentleman.
Shaoning stuck out her tongue in her heart and held the gift in front of Mr. Shao .
"Grandpa, I wish you longevity." She said with a smile.
Mr. Shao stroked his beard happily.
Zhong Man saw this scene and felt helpless.
The old lady and the old man like this kind of extroverted person, but they don't know that Shaoningxin is the best at acting. He does one thing at home and another outside, and is very eccentric.
She didn't bother to look at him anymore and looked away.
Suddenly, she seemed to see a familiar figure.
Gu Jiayan!
She looked again and saw that it was really him, and the two of them greeted each other with their eyes.
Zhong Man's heart was so excited that she really didn't expect to meet a good friend here.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she moved over slightly, and the two chatted in the small garden behind the Shao family banquet hall.
"Why are you here? Are you with Shaoning Qian again ?"
Gu Jiayan and Shaoning Qian are friends, and the latter often takes Gu Jiayan to various banquets.
"Of course, I thought I could see you when I came over." Gu Jiayan raised his glass and touched Zhong Man's wine.
"You look really radiant today." Gu Jiayan added:
"You should dress like this, charming and majestic. It's much better than the timid look you had before. You didn't notice that everyone looked at you differently just now."
Zhong Man couldn't help laughing.
It seems that she made the right decision.
Gu Jiayan's eyes fell on her wrist, a little worried:
"But the bracelet that Mrs. Shao didn't even get was given to you. I don't know what those people would say. Your mother-in-law is not a good person."
Zhong Man was also a little helpless and sighed.
The jade bracelet is warm to the touch, and its brilliance flows under the light, making it beautiful.
Such a treasure should never belong to her.
She didn't need to think about it, she knew that Kong Yufen was so angry that her teeth were about to break.
"It's okay. When the soldiers come, they will cover up the water and the earth." She smiled pretending to be cheerful and did not take this episode seriously.
"Zhong Man." At this moment, an unhappy voice sounded from behind the two of them.
Zhong Man couldn't help but frown. With this voice and this momentum, who else could be there besides Shao Jingyan ?
"Let's go." Zhong Man said calmly.
Gu Jiayan shrugged his shoulders and turned to look at Shao Jingyan with complicated eyes.
"Stop!" Shao Jingyan strode forward and grabbed Zhong Man's arm, "Everyone is waiting for you. If you are seen to be confused with others, then..."
"What does it mean to be unclear? Why can't we be clear about it? Can just saying something to a friend affect you, the president of Shaoda ?" Zhong Man sneered and shook off his restraint.
When she spoke, the disgust and impatience in her eyes were clearly visible.
Shao Jingyan was stunned for a moment and clenched his fists.
he saw clearly just now from upstairs was that when she was talking to Gu Jiayan , she was smiling and relaxed.
But as soon as he came, her expression immediately changed.
Moreover, couldn't she see that the man named Gu was plotting against her?
"Don't forget, you are still my wife, Shao Jingyan . On an occasion like today, please be careful and don't let anyone take advantage of you. I find it embarrassing."
Shao Jingyan suppressed his voice and his tone was filled with anger.
"Ha." Zhong Man looked at him mockingly, "Every time in the past, when you brought Xie Xintong to a banquet and made others misunderstand that she was your wife, why didn't you feel embarrassed?"
With one word, she blocked Shao Jingyan 's mouth.
Yes, this is the first time he has brought her out in the past three years.
Many people asked him who she was.
"That was before." Shao Jingyan was silent for a long time before finally finding his voice:
"It's different now. No matter how resentful or dissatisfied you are, you have to endure it and play your role for me!"
After saying that, he forcefully took Zhong Man's hand and took her away. Zhong Man struggled to get away and scolded him ten thousand times in her heart.
On the dance floor of the banquet hall, men and women were dancing. As soon as the two appeared, everyone's eyes focused on them.
Zhong Man's face was slightly stiff, but he had no choice but to smile and face the attention from all directions.
Shao Jingyan put his arm around her shoulders, and his face, which was so cold and cannibalistic just now, surprisingly softened a lot.
If you observe carefully, you will definitely find a slight smile at the end of his eyes.
Zhong Man felt uncomfortable when he held his shoulder, and warned him with her eyes many times to let go immediately.
Shao Jingyan turned a deaf ear and pretended to take her around to toast her, as if he wanted to introduce her to others.
" Mrs. Shao , you are so radiant and touching. No wonder Mr. Shao has been hiding his beauty in the golden house these past few years."
"Yes, Mrs. Shao is almost as good as a movie star."
…
Listening to the compliments coming from around him from time to time, Zhong Man felt very uncomfortable.When she first appeared, this group of people made a secret bet that she would not be recognized today and would make a fool of herself.It was because of Shao Jingyan 's actions that she became popular again.Oh, she would rather not have such "favor".Zhong Man secretly vowed in his heart that he must become stronger and give himself the confidence.Shao Jing Banquet, get out of here!After going around, everyone has basically met Zhong Man, and they all saw clues from Shao Jingyan 's attitude, and redefined Zhong Man's value.Zhong Man felt physically and mentally exhausted, so he sat down in the corner with a glass of wine.Shao Jingyan was pestered by several business bosses. Zhong Man looked at his slender and straight back and secretly gave him a middle finger."Long time no see, Zhong Man." Shaoning smiled hear
Shaoning stared at Zhong Man with a gloomy heart, his eyes sliding over the bracelet on her wrist.At this moment, this bitch Zhong Man lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.He gritted his teeth and thought about it.Shaoning turned around, took another glass of wine from the waiter's hand, and walked towards Zhong Man very quickly.Zhong Man caught a glimpse of her actions from the corner of his eye and immediately wanted to avoid her, but unexpectedly, Shaoning Xin bumped into her like this.He also let out a soft cry of "Ouch".Zhong Man's scalp went numb , this woman had a clear conscience, and it was because of the bracelet on her hand.If the bracelet was broken, not only would she be embarrassed, but she would also make the old lady angry.In that instant, many thoughts flashed through Zhong Man's mind. She did not panic and ducked to the side of the champagne tower .She was moving very fast, and h
From beginning to end, she didn't even look at him.You can see how disappointed."Younger brother, you should take good care of your daughter. Don't let her cause trouble all day long. She is only in our house now. If something happens outside, will you always protect her?"Mrs. Shao said coldly .Xue Fangfei's face looked really bad, turning green and white at one time and another, "Yes, I understand."After saying that, he gave Shaoning a hard look."That's it, you two, please go out." Mrs. Shao waved her hands, not wanting to see their mother and daughter again.Only Zhong Man and the three of them were left in the living room.Shao sat holding Zhong Man's hand, looking around Kong Yufen, and then at Shao Jingyan, who had a gloomy expression."What do you two have to say?" Mrs. Shao asked.Kong Yufen was happy at the moment , while Xue Fangfei was scolded by the old lady and would not dare to jump around again fo
As soon as she left, Kong Yufen immediately stood up and said to Shao Jingyan :"It's true that you can't control your own wife. She's getting bolder and bolder now, and she doesn't even take us seriously anymore. How is this inappropriate?!"Xie Xintong also boldly said, "Brother Jingyan, Sister Manman did go a little too far today.""That's enough!" Shao Jingyan suddenly stepped on the brakes.The two women behind were unprepared and almost fell down.He said coldly :"Didn't you take what grandma said into your head? To tell you the truth, Zhong Man was planning to divorce me not long ago.But I have to respect her now, because once she causes trouble, it will ruin my reputation, and it will also affect the share price and reputation of Shao Group .So, you two, please restrain yourself and don't provoke her again! "After saying that, he also got out of the car.Kong Yufen and Xie Xintong were left looking at eac
Until he returned to his office, Zhong Man's heart still hadn't calmed down.The patients and nurses outside the door were still whispering, presumably everyone already knew what happened to her.Zhong Man's mind was in a mess, why were these fans so irrational.She thought she didn't need to pay attention to it before, but now she found that she was too naive.At this time, Shao Jingyan handed over a glass of water, "Drink, slowly."Zhong Man looked up at him, took the glass of water, and drank it down suddenly, choking and coughing.Shao Jingyan frowned, "What's the rush?""You have nothing to do here. You can go." Zhong Man said calmly.Where Shao Jingyan was, she always felt depressed and uncomfortable, and couldn't help but want to escape."Forgot who saved you just now? Are you going to kill the donkey?" Shao Jingyan snorted coldly , pulled up a chair and sat down, "You care so much about your so-called friend, why d
Gu Jiayan turned his head and his eyes became colder.Shaoningxin did this and wanted to take a shortcut to deceive her.After all, it would take time and effort to investigate such nonsense, but I didn't expect that it was really her.Why does she have such a deep hatred with Zhong Man that she insists on slandering others like this!"Jiayan, don't be angry. I didn't recognize you at that time. I really thought Zhong Man had betrayed my cousin, so...""Shut up." Gu Jiayan's voice was cold and his eyes darkened.No one knows how important Zhong Man is to him." Shaoning Xin, you have touched my bottom line." Gu Jiayan smiled coldly and looked down at the little girl in front of him, "From now on, don't tell others that you know me."After saying that, he turned around and left.Shaoning was shocked and turned pale.She hurriedly caught up, grabbed Gu Jiayan's hand, and said in a quick voice:"I already know I w
"Hello everyone, I'm going upstairs first, everyone can help themselves."Zhong Man glanced at everyone present, handed the clothes and bag to He Ma, and left.Kong Yufen frowned and said, "Come here, we have something to talk about."It seems that before she came back, everyone already knew that Shaoning Xin had done something wrong.Zhong Man was obedient and went over obediently and sat on the other end of the sofa.At this time, Xue Fangfei spoke, "Manman , I heard that you want Ning Xin to publicly apologize. Is this true?"Xue Fangfei was so beautiful and elegant, and she used to be polite to Zhong Man.But Zhong Man knew in her heart that this was her usual way of dealing with people.She won't offend anyone easily, but she won't let anyone offend her either.Zhong Man knew very well that if he really asked Shao Ningxin to apologize publicly today, he would have completely offended Xue Fangfei."Second Aunt al
In the following days, Zhong Man lived quite comfortably.Because all the people stopped.She devoted herself to her work, and her former editor Chen Nan won her an interview with the head of the editorial department.Zhong Man took out many of his popular books in the past . Although he successfully convinced the editorial director, the latter decided to publish the book online first. If the readership is relatively large, he would consider publishing it later.Zhong Man thought about it, and discussed with Chen Nan to publish the book on the online bookstore owned by Chen Nan's publishing house.That night, Zhong Man slept very uneasily, getting up almost every hour to look at the data in the background.Fortunately, her efforts were not in vain.As soon as "Butterfly Transformation" was released online, it immediately gained tens of thousands of readers. Some people even stayed up late to read it and left messages in the comment ar
He really didn't expect that Zhong Man was so powerful now and seemed to have a good relationship with Jian Tiance.That's all, I won't touch her for this period of time. She is just a stinky girl anyway, how can she be turned upside down?"Mr. Jian, it's better to arrive early than to arrive late. Since you're here, I'll be the host and Manman will be the companion . How about I treat you to a meal?" Zhong Ting struck while the iron was hot and wanted to take the opportunity to finalize the contract agreement.Jian Tiance looked at Zhong Man, as if asking for her opinion.Zhong Man smiled lightly, "Since Mr. Jian is willing to show his favor, I can't ask for more."Several people went out together.The design department was left stunned .Silence, silence.An eerie silence.The air seemed to freeze, and everyone was deprived of breath.Well, now the object of everyone's sympathy has become Yan Ling'er .It was
Jian Tiance only nodded lightly and glanced to the side, as if searching for someone else.Yan Linger was a little puzzled, so she took a step forward and blocked his view.Jian Tiance frowned slightly and squeezed the framed picture in his hand.Yan Ling'er also noticed this little gesture of his and was very excited. She really didn't expect that Mr. Jian would be so flattering and would actually frame her work and send it to her specially."Mr. Jian, who are you?" Zhong Yan also came out to say hello.Jian Tiance noticed Zhong Man, who was standing next to his desk in the office hall with other employees.He couldn't help but wonder, wasn't Zhong Man a minister ? How could he sit with ordinary employees?"I'm looking for Zhong Man." Jian Tiance said bluntly.Zhong Yan and Yan Linger were both stunned, thinking they had heard wrongly."Mr. Jian, you...""Miss Zhong." Jian Tiance ignored Yan Linger and walked in dir
Chapter 135: Wanting to embarrass her in publicLi Mengmeng looked confused, but she thought that Minister Zhong must have a reason for doing this.She quickly took out her nail clippers, offered them to him respectfully, and then continued to watch silently like a quail.Zhong Man said thank you and carefully cut off her barbs, as if she didn't care about everything around her.Yan Linger secretly sneered in her heart, feeling that Zhong Man was pretending to be calm. She crossed her arms over her chest and looked down at the woman in front of her, her voice becoming sarcastic:"Of course you should get out of the design department because you are not qualified to stay here any longer."Zhong Man sneered, "Oh? Really, but has anyone stipulated that as a minister, you must win the gold medal in the Dihuang Group 's competition?"Yan Ling'er choked, but refused to be outdone, "There are no regulations, but you can't even get a ranking
Song Qing's face turned pale in pain and was speechless.Qi Su rushed over and picked her up, "I'll take her to the hospital."Fortunately, his hospital was nearby and he checked her immediately after going there.Good guy, she drank and had stomach bleeding."You can no longer drink alcohol, eat spicy food, or stay up late." Qi Su said with a cold face.One night had passed, and Song Qing was completely exhausted, his face was pale and pale, and he was paralyzed on the bed and receiving an intravenous drip.When she heard his order, she felt angry for no reason and glared at him, "Who are you to me? Why do you care about me?!"Not to be outdone, Qi Su said, "I am your doctor, so you have to listen to me."After saying that, he handed her the porridge bowl and asked her to finish it.Song Qing wanted to confront him again, so Zhong Man hurriedly invited Qi Su out first."Why are you two eating firecrackers one by one
She smiled meaningfully, looking at Zhong Man's face, she felt even more pity."If you are willing to be my apprentice, I can get rid of these two idiots and I will definitely let you reach the top of the fashion industry. How about it?" She thought for a while and said.Shaoning's heart broke and she looked at the master she had worked so hard to recruit in disbelief, "Master, how can you say that? Senior sister and I, we obviously work hard and are very filial to you?""What's the use of hard work, and what's the use of being filial?" Grandma Hao's voice was cold and full of sarcasm.Shaoning turned pale with anger, glared at Zhong Man bitterly, turned around and ran away.Zhong Man looked unconcerned, "Thank you, Grandma Hao, for your love. Unfortunately, I already have the best master in the world.""You say she is the best?" Grandma Hao stood up immediately and gritted her teeth and said, "She didn't teach you wholeheartedly, otherwise
Zhong Man did not have a pleasant day.Some people in the design department seemed to know that her work had been exposed and that she could not be selected for the competition, and they were all whispering, covertly or openly."Do you think our Minister Zhong is going to die this time? I feel like she is quite unlucky too. I never expected that such a thing would happen to her.""Sometimes people's luck is really uncertain. She thinks she's unlucky. It's a pity. She's pretty good to us.""Just treat me to a meal? You are too arbitrary. Whether it is good or not, you have to let the work speak for itself. Now that she has messed up this matter, even if Deputy Minister Yan doesn't say anything, she will He must have been laid off by the general manager's office, how pitiful he is."…Two staff members were in the bathroom , chatting while touching up their makeup.The two of them talked more and more outrageously, and even mentioned th
Thinking of this, Shaoning 's heart was bleeding. Damn it, she not only apologized publicly, but also took out the few million she had left and distributed them to those who were bullied by her. This was not enough, Xue Fang Fei also donated more than 10 million to charities in her name.This time, I really lost a lot of money."Don't do such stupid things again in the future, you know?" Grandma Hao said in a tone of hatred.Shaoning Xin reluctantly nodded, "Master, what should I do next? My grandma has already transferred Mei Zhi 's shares to you."Grandma Hao was shocked and glared at Shaoning Xin, "Are you so anxious?"Yes, after that day, Mrs. Shao transferred all 55% of her shares to her.It is equivalent to handing over a company to others.Grandma Hao never imagined that Mrs. Shao would be so decisive and give up so easily after a lifetime of hard work.But this incident was like a thorn in Grandma Hao's heart. Every time
Afterwards, two men hurried out. As soon as the door opened, the atmosphere became tense."You're back? Then you asked me to help you, wasting my time." Shao Jingyan glared at Zhong Man, walked around her and went downstairs.He had long legs and could climb three steps at once. Chen An hurriedly followed and was almost thrown away."There is food in the kitchen, remember to eat." Everyone at Shao Jing's banquet went out, and the voice was still following behind.Zhong Man was stunned for a moment, feeling an inexplicable surge of heat in his heart.Suddenly, I felt that the guy's poisonous tongue wasn't so annoying anymore.She quickly perfected her manuscript and submitted it before the deadline.The next morning she received word that it had passed.Oh yeah!Zhong Man got a little excited, hummed a song and got up, specially put on a dark green hip-hugging skirt suit that He's mother had newly put in storage for her , a
Three more days passed.the Dihuang Group was just around the corner. Zhong Man defied all opinions and returned to the company from the hospital." Hey , you really dare to come back. You're not in good shape yet. It seems you really want to compete with me." Yan Ling'er showed her signature fake smile when he saw her.She didn't even care how many people had come to the office at this time, she just spoke so boldly.While Zhong Man was cleaning up his workstation where junk documents were piled up, he replied indifferently, "Even if I am disabled at level 18, I am still better than you."Yan Linger's expression changed, "It seems that Miss Zhong is very confident in herself, so we'll see. Oh, by the way, I heard that you just lost a game. I wonder if it has any impact on you. "Zhong Man made a move.Glancing at Yan Ling'er , "How do you know I lost?""That's because..." Halfway through his words, Yan Linger narrowly stopped t
