"I'll be fine soon, wait for me for another thirty minutes."
It was the text message he sent, and Manru looked at the simple words blankly. In the past, she only sent him the text message points, but she didn't expect that he would send her text messages. And she comforted herself, during the meeting
Send her a text message.
Manru didn't know what she felt, and inexplicably felt her nose soreness.
"It's okay, I'll read a good book, don't cut it." Manru went back and said a few words.
Su Heng was listening to his subordinates' reports on his work and felt the phone on his hand vibrate. He hurriedly took the phone over and saw her reply, a smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth.
My subordinates who were reporting on their work came to the boss and thought that their work had satisfied the boss, and their backs were straight and even more mushy.
Su Heng really took an hour to finish the meeting. Later, he became a little impatient and interrupted his subordinates three times, making people concise. After the meeting was rushing, he returned to the office.
Manru was reading quietly with the book. She was already quiet. She sat reading like this, except for the occasional sound of pages turning, she really didn't even have any movement.
When Su Heng came in, he saw Manru's eyes soft. He walked over with his footsteps lightly. He only felt that Manru was sitting there, beautiful like a painting.
"You're finished meeting." She heard the voice, looked up and saw him, immediately put down her book and stood up.
"Yeah." He smiled and walked up to her, "Sorry, Xiaoru, I've made you wait for so long."
"No." Manru didn't care at all, but she was very nervous. She thought that she was coming to ask him for help, and her sense of shame surged again.
"Sit first." Su Heng sat next to him, "Are you hungry? I asked Secretary Wei to book a restaurant, let's go to have a meal first?"
"No," she waved her hand quickly, "I'll look for you, there's something to talk about."
"Okay, you said." As long as it was her business, he would naturally care about it.
"My brother is about to enter the prosecution stage, which is very unfavorable to him now. I have consulted a lawyer. If there is no new evidence, he will really go to jail." Manru said a little anxiously, "You..."
"Can I find a way to save your brother?" Su Heng asked for her.
"Can you?" Manru looked at him uneasy.
Can he? Of course he can. In fact, he is already doing it, and there are clues upstream and downstream, but the truth will soon be revealed. He can tell her these words, and she will definitely be very happy.
But he also knew that she and Cheng Lang had developed very quickly recently. Everything about the Jiang family was done, but Cheng Lang helped inside and outside, and Gu Junyi simply treated Cheng Lang like a son-in-law.
And no matter what he does, it seems that there is no chance at all. Manru refused to give him a chance, and the Jiang family was even more unlikely to give him a chance.
But, can he watch Manru marry another person? Can he do it?
"Is it OK?" Seeing that he did not answer, Manru became even more nervous.
"Yes, but can I have a condition?" Su Heng quickly generated an idea and said.
“What conditions?”
"Back to me." He said word by word. God knows how fast his heart beats after he said it. He knows that he is so despicable and shameless. But he has no choice but tolerate her. He can't stand her.
There is another man who always thinks about letting her return to him.
In fact, this idea was not what he had just had. He thought about it for a long time. In Nandaihe, she refused him. When her father was in the hospital, Cheng Lang was busy with her every day for her, but he could only wait like an idiot outside the hospital.
When he was about to go, he thought.
He had thought about all kinds of shameless and despicable methods in his mind, and only one purpose was to let her return to him.
Manru was also stunned. She opened her eyes wide and looked at the man. She didn't expect him to propose such a condition.
"Reject Cheng Lang and come back to me. I promise your brother can come out safely." Su Heng said again.
Manru felt ashamed at first, but at this moment she felt even more humiliated. Her palms were sweating, and she didn't even know what to do?
"You have to agree. I believe I can pick up your brother tomorrow. I believe your mother, she must be very worried, right?"
"Why do you do this?" she asked, she didn't want to be like this with him.
"Xiao Ru, there is no free lunch in this world, you should know." Su Heng said, stretching out his hand to stroke her cheek, "I will help you, I protect you, because I love you. Since I
I love you, of course I want to keep you by my side.”
He loved her, he said he loved her, but he used such conditions to force her to surrender. However, she took the initiative to save him!
"You don't have to answer me now, you can think about it slowly." Su Heng certainly wouldn't force her, but he believed that the final result would be what he wanted.
Manru looked at the man and couldn't help but ask, "How long?"
"What?" Su Heng didn't seem to understand what she was asking.
"How long will it take to be together?" Manru asked.
A strange look appeared on Su Heng's face, and he said, "One year, one year, is that okay?" He didn't believe it, he couldn't impress her a year.
Manru took a strong breath: "I...I will think about it first."
"Okay." She didn't agree immediately, which made him a little disappointed, but it didn't matter, he could take it slowly.
"Let's go for a meal, okay?"
"No need, I'm going back." Manru said, picking up his bag and getting it wrapped.
"I'll give you it." Su Heng said, pulling her hand.
"No." Manru immediately pulled out her hand, "I can go back myself."
Su Heng didn't insist, knowing that she might not want to be with her now, and she felt sad, but he held back and said, "I'll let Secretary Wei take you down."
She nodded and went out.
Su Heng's face turned pale. As soon as Manru left, his steps were a little weak and he slowly sat back to his position.
Secretary Wei was very surprised. Miss Jiang had not been waiting for President Su for so long, and the two of them had been chatting for less than half an hour, so she left like that! She didn't dare to talk nonsense, and she respectfully sent Manru down.
building.
Seeing that she was heading towards the bus, she felt even more strange.
As soon as Manru got home, her mother pulled her to her room with an anxious look on her face: "Xiaoru, I'll ask you, is something wrong with your brother?"
"Mom, how could you know?" Manru didn't react and asked directly.
"That's true!" Gu Junyi's face turned pale, "Aunt Zhang's son is working in that bureau. When he came back, he said, "You Aunt Zhang told me when she saw me today. She also said that the case is quite serious.
, I will be prosecuted immediately."
"Mom, don't worry, my brother won't be in trouble. I asked the lawyer today and said that I had found evidence to prove that my brother was unaware of it, and he would release it soon." Manru hurriedly said to his mother.
"Why are there so many things in our family recently? Your brother is so. He is so adult. He has caused such a thing all day long." Gu Junyi looked anxious, and suddenly fainted and almost fell down.
"Mom, are you okay?" Manru was so scared that she hurriedly went to support her mother.
"I'm fine." Gu Junyi sat on the bed, "This is not the case with the news I heard today!"
"It's true, mom." Manru said hurriedly, "Don't worry, we can go and press brother in the next two days."
"Really?" Gu Junyi was skeptical.
"Really." Manru nodded vigorously.
"Mom, you have a bad face and need a good rest. I'll help you back to your room to rest!" Manru said, helping her mother up.
"Okay, you must tell me if there is any progress in your brother's case. You can't hide it from me anymore." Gu Junyi said again.
"I can, mom."
After taking care of her mother, she went back to the room and looked at her phone for a long time before sending a text message: I agree.
Su Heng immediately replied with a text message: OK.
Your brother has news, I will notify you immediately. He immediately replied with another text message.
OK, thank you! She is back like this again.
After returning, he felt as if his whole body was weak, and he fell on the bed.
Manru slept hard, and the next morning she received a call from Cheng Lang and said a big breakthrough. The upstream supply was found, and the person who was working with her brother was also found, and she was being interrogated.
When Manru rushed over again, she told her that she could confirm that Jiang Qi was not aware of this trip. There were still some procedures that had not been completed, and he would be an important witness and would probably not come out tomorrow.
Manru's whole body became weak. She didn't expect that Su Heng's ability to do things was so fast.
The next day, Cheng Lang drove her and her mother to pick up her brother. When he saw her brother at the door, his hair was long and his blue shirt looked a little dirty, but he was very energetic and did not suffer much.
"Get into the car first, go back and wash it well first." Gu Junyi patted her son's shoulder and said with tears in her eyes.
"Yes." Jiang Qi was getting in the car. When Manru got in the car, she saw a black Bentley car in the corner of the street in front. It was that car again. She knew it was Su Heng. Her heart sank and knew that she must have
To fulfill your promise.
"What's wrong, Xiaoru." Cheng Lang's hand unconsciously put on her shoulder.
But Manru quickly moved away and got into the car.
"I think you haven't done anything during this period, so you are not suitable for business. You should find a job steadily!" Gu Junyi said to her son from behind.
"I get it, mom."
Manru sat in front without saying anything, and her expression was always faint.
The next day, she arrived at the restaurant she had made an appointment with Su Heng. He booked a private room. When she pushed the door open and Su Heng was sitting inside, he smiled when he saw her coming in.
Her heart beat, she walked over slowly, and subconsciously tightened the strap of her bag.
"I haven't ordered food yet, see what you want to eat." Su Heng walked over and put one hand on her shoulder and said.
Manru did not push away immediately, and sat down with him stiffly: "You order!"
