Originally, we could make an appointment with Jiang Han in the morning, but the place where Li Manzi lives now is a two-hour drive from the center of Los Angeles City. In addition, Li Manzi was pregnant, so he picked her up in the morning and arranged for her to rest for a while before coming over.
After Lu Ziyou finished speaking, he took Li Manzi towards the coffee shop. After entering, he saw Jiang Han who had been waiting for a long time.
"Sister Jiang Han, I'm sorry, there was a bit of traffic on the road, so I'm a little late."
Jiang Han was about to talk to Lu Ziyou when he noticed Li Manzi following Lu Ziyou. A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. Lu Ziyou just pretended not to see it and motioned for Li Manzi to sit down.
Jiang Han didn't think Lu Ziyou was the kind of person who would bring a stranger to see her casually, so he took the initiative to ask.
"Yuyou, why don't I introduce this friend of yours."
"Oh, look at me, I was so busy talking to you that I forgot to introduce you. This is Li Manzi. She is almost four months pregnant. I just happened to accompany her to visit the baby store today."
After Lu Ziyou said this, Jiang Han noticed that Li Manzi was indeed dressed like a pregnant woman.
At this time, Li Manzi took the initiative and nodded to Jiang Han, touched his belly specifically and said.
"I'm less than four months old and haven't shown my pregnancy yet. If Miss Jiang Han doesn't mind, just call me Manzi."
Jiang Han was not the kind of indifferent person. Since it was Lu Ziyou who brought him, she had nothing to be wary of. She nodded and even took the initiative to strike up a conversation.
"Seeing that Miss Li is not very young, she got married and had children so early. I'm really envious."
Jiang Han's words came from the bottom of her heart. She had been in love several times, but each time it ended without any problems. Now she is almost thirty, and she finally met a beloved man, and she also has more thoughts about marriage.
expectations.
When Li Manzi and Lu Ziyou heard this, their expressions changed slightly. Li Manzi even showed a lonely and absent-minded expression. Jiang Han knew there was a reason for it at a glance, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he said.
"I'm sorry, did I say something wrong? Miss Li, please don't mind."
Li Manzi shook his head and lamented while stroking his belly.
"It's okay, it's just that I met an unkind person. I thought I had found true love, but I didn't expect it to be just a spare tire. In vain, I loved him wholeheartedly and didn't seek status or benefits, but in the end I was still the one who was abandoned.
.”
Li Manzi had completely given up. If Xiao Yingze and Lu Ziyou hadn't come to her this time, she would have planned to break up with Huo Tianshuo.
She had no name or status, and it didn't matter even if she was burdened with the reputation of her mistress. However, in order to protect the child in her belly from other people's cold eyes and insults, she had to leave that ruthless man, even if she would raise the child by herself in the future.
, is better than letting the child know that he has such a ruthless father.
When Li Manzi said this, Jiang Han, who was sitting opposite, didn't know what to say. After all, she and Li Manzi had just met for the first time, and she couldn't care less about other people's private affairs, so she glanced at Lu Ziyou who was standing aside.
Lu Ziyou took a sip of coffee and comforted Li Manzi.
"Manzi, I'm very happy that you think so. I've long said that Huo Tianshuo is unreliable, but you just don't listen. It's just that you are like this. Do you plan to live alone with your children in the future?"
Lu Ziyou didn't look at Jiang Han at all when she spoke, but Jiang Han grasped the key point of these words. She was obviously stunned, the hand holding the coffee cup trembled slightly, and then she looked at Lu Ziyou and asked.
"Did you just say that Miss Manzi's boyfriend is named Huo Tianshuo?"
Lu Ziyou pretended not to know anything and nodded, then asked with a puzzled expression on his face.
"Why, sister Jiang Han also knows Huo Tianshuo?"
Jiang Han didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he nodded and made an excuse.
"I heard that we met at a cocktail party before, but I didn't expect that he was Manzi's boyfriend."
At this time, Jiang Han felt a cold feeling in her heart. She was a smart person. There were not so many coincidences in this world. She was afraid that Lu Ziyou deliberately arranged for the woman in front of her to meet her, but she would not doubt Lu Ziyou's intentions, but began to
Think about the relationship between yourself and Huo Tianshuo.
When Lu Ziyou heard what Jiang Han said, she didn't expose it and followed her words.
"What kind of boyfriend? He is just a scumbag. Sister Jiang Han, I am not afraid of your jokes. I was also deceived by this scumbag at the beginning. He also said that Manzi was his cousin. Fortunately, I found out later."
Speaking of this, Lu Ziyou looked at Li Manzi with some sympathy.
If it wasn't for Jiang Han this time, she wouldn't have approached Li Manzi, let alone know that Li Manzi was also frustrated with Huo Tianshuo.
To be honest, after learning that she had been deceived at the beginning, Lu Ziyou still hated Li Manzi. However, when she saw Li Manzi this time, the dislike gradually disappeared and she was filled with sympathy.
When she learned about Li Manzi's decision, she thought of helping this poor woman get rid of Huo Tianshuo, which would be regarded as killing women.
Jiang Han was obviously stunned when he heard Lu Ziyou's words, and stared at Li Manzi in shock.
At this time, Li Manzi finally spoke, speaking softly in a low voice with a touch of sadness.
"I always thought that Tianshuo loved me in his heart, and everything he did was just to prove his ability and to get ahead in Luo City. When Huo Tianshuo and Miss Lu were together, I knew that Huo Tianshuo
He kept telling me that he and Miss Lu were together just to take advantage of the Yu family background behind Miss Lu, and he also promised that he would marry me once I became the best among people."
Speaking of this, Li Manzi smiled bitterly, then lowered his head and touched his belly and said.
"Miss Jiang Han, are you stupid for being like this? Now think about it, I was really carried away by love. I only had love for him in my heart, and I completely lost the ability to distinguish between true and false. Until I got pregnant, I
Only then did I realize that he had never thought about being with me, or that he had never thought about marrying me. To him, I was just a very obedient lover, a tool to satisfy his manly vanity.
"
"He doesn't want the baby?"
Jiang Han asked at this time.
After hearing this, Li Manzi smiled bitterly and continued.
"He is a very smart person and never makes our relationship very bad. From the moment he found out I was pregnant, he didn't say a word about not wanting a child, but his words and deeds told me time and again that he did not
If I don't welcome the arrival of this child, he will throw all the problems to me, making me feel that it is not the time to have a child, but this time, I don't want to listen to him anymore, I want to follow my heart for once."
"Okay, Manzi, no matter what you do, I will support you. Don't worry, Yingze will help you solve the problem later. That scumbag will never have another chance to disturb you and your child."
Lu Ziyou stopped when he saw the situation and was not talking about Li Manzi and Huo Tianshuo. Li Manzi was also very sensible, calmed down a little, and said to Jiang Han with an apologetic look.
"Ms. Jiang, I'm sorry, it's just a temporary feeling, don't pay attention to it."
At this time, Jiang Han had mixed emotions. She couldn't associate the gentle, gentlemanly Huo Tianshuo with the scumbag Li Manzi said. But when the facts were in front of her, she had to believe them.
Jiang Han couldn't stay and chat with Lu Ziyou at this time. She needed to calm down and get out in time.
"Yuyou, I have something to do soon, so I'm afraid I won't be able to go shopping with you. Let's contact you when we have time, okay?"
Lu Ziyou didn't hold back, nodded, then watched Jiang Han leave, and then sat down again.
"Miss Lu, I'm sorry. Although this apology is long overdue, I must apologize to you for my previous concealment."
Li Manzi spoke at this time. The more she got to know Huo Tianshuo, the more guilty Li Manzi felt towards Lu Ziyou. She had always wanted to find a chance to say sorry to Lu Ziyou. Fortunately, God was kind and gave her such an opportunity.
In fact, Lu Ziyou has completely given up. If it weren't for Jiang Han, she would never want to go to Li Manzi in her life. However, since the other party said she was sorry, she accepted it happily.
