Chapter 147: Don't Want to Face It
That night, Xiao Beisheng came home early. Just as Su Man was about to go to bed, he entered the house.
He was on the phone, very emotional, and his face was too good. When he came back, he went to the bar and poured himself a glass of whiskey. "They relied on their seniority and did whatever they wanted under my nose all these years. Now it's time to teach them a lesson."
He took a sip of the whiskey and loosened his tie somewhat irritably.
Suman comes downstairs.
She was just going downstairs to get some ice water.
Xiao Beisheng heard the voice and looked up at her, "Are you still awake?"
"I'm almost asleep. I want to come down and have a drink of water."
She also walked to the bar, poured herself a glass of water, then took out an ice bucket from the refrigerator and added ice cubes to it.
It was already summer, and Su Man wore a suspender nightgown inside and an ice silk cardigan outside.
The smooth fabric made her skin look as smooth as satin and milk.
As she poured water, her skirt lifted up, revealing her milky skin from time to time. Xiao Beisheng sat on the sofa, staring at her without blinking.
Su Man knew he was looking at her, but she didn't shy away.
After pouring the water, she turned around and went back, not forgetting to greet Xiao Beisheng, "I'm going upstairs to sleep first, you should also go to bed early."
Xiao Beisheng reached out and pulled her to sit on his lap.
He touched her belly through her pajamas and said, "It's not good for girls to drink something too cold."
"It's hot, it's good for cooling off," said Suman.
Xiao Beisheng's hand, which was touching her belly, slowly moved to her leg. The wedding ring on his ring finger scratched her skin, and the cold and hard touch made her feel a little uncomfortable.
She held his hand, but Xiao Beisheng turned his palm over and interlocked his fingers with hers.
There were red bloodshot eyes, and he looked really tired.
Su Man finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Are you busy lately?"
"Very busy."
"You and grandma, have a disagreement about company affairs?"
Xiao Beisheng looked at her carefully, his eyes seemed to turn into substance, sticky and deep, scanning Su Man's face.
"It has to come to this. Grandma should let go. The people under her are parasites of the company."
"Is it because of Mu Chuchu that you suddenly became like this? Are you angry with grandma?"
Xiao Beisheng laughed twice with ambiguous meaning.
Su Man said: "In fact, grandma was so angry because Mu Chuchu said something she shouldn't have said that day. She said..."
Before he could finish his words, Xiao Beisheng interrupted him, "You are speaking for grandma."
He calmly stated this fact and then asked, "Are you speaking up for grandma because she has always been on your side, or because you agree with her approach?"
His focus was not on what Mu Chuchu said. Su Man frowned: "I never said that I think grandma's approach is right."
"You'd better think so. Su Man, grandma can do this to others this time, and she can do this to you next time. This time it's Mu Chuchu, next time it will be you." Xiao Beisheng's voice was a little cold.
Su Man felt annoyed. She had never wanted to get involved in the Xiao family's affairs.
No matter how the quarrel between the grandparents and the grandchildren was, no matter how embarrassing it was, what did it have to do with her?
Su Man broke free from him and stood up. "Just pretend I never said these words. I was redundant."
She went up the stairs in a few steps.
Xiao Beisheng sat at the bar, his face sunk in the shadows.
That night, Su Man couldn't fall asleep and was very upset.
After Xiao Beisheng finished his business, he returned to his room, took a shower, climbed onto the bed, and hugged Su Man from the side. "My tone was a bit harsh just now. I didn't mean that..."
Su Man has learned her lesson and doesn't want to say another word about this matter.
She just said, "Go to bed early."
Xiao Beisheng held her shoulders and asked her to turn around to face him. "Are you angry?"
"No." Su Man showed no emotion.
He leaned forward to kiss her, but Suman avoided him.
Su Man looked resistant, and Xiao Beisheng said, "I didn't want to do anything. I've been busy all day and I'm very tired."
"Then what were you doing just now?" Su Man was skeptical.
"Goodnight kiss."
Xiao Beisheng had a handsome and sharp face, and even his words of intimacy sounded a little cold. If it weren't for his peach blossom eyes, Su Man would have thought that he was not here to ask for a kiss, but to collect a debt.
Seeing that Su Man didn't answer, Xiao Beisheng tentatively moved closer again and gently kissed Su Man's lips. This time, Su Man didn't dodge.
Su Man knew that if Xiao Beisheng was not satisfied, he would not let her go easily.
He lingered on her upper lip, then gradually moved down. Who knew that during the kiss, Xiao Beisheng became more unbridled, and Su Man immediately pushed him away, "Enough."
Xiao Beisheng tried his best to control his disordered breath.
"I swear, originally I really just wanted to... just sleep and rest. But..."
He let out a long breath, his voice low, "Suman, you have a fatal attraction to me. Once I touch you, I will lose control."
These words were obviously very bewitching, but to Su Man, they sounded very ironic.
People outside said that Su Man was able to marry Xiao Beisheng because she used seductive tricks and means. There was only physical impulse and no love between them.
To put it bluntly, she was just a tool for Xiao Beisheng to vent his emotions.
When dealing with Mu Chuchu or Luo Yan, he can be emotional for them and put himself in their shoes, and only when his needs need to be addressed will he be polite to Su Man.
Suman said, "I am really tired."
She is very determined.
Xiao Beisheng asked with concern: "Is the intensity of the dance practice too high? You don't have to work during this period, you should have a good rest..."
Su Man interrupted him: "Beisheng, I'm sleepy."
"Okay, go to sleep."
Xiao Beisheng was very tolerant. He put his arm around her shoulders, hugged her to sleep, and never did anything wrong again.
The next day, Suman received an invitation from the school.
The dance team she led before leaving was going to City B to participate in a competition. This time, the school invited Su Man to accompany them as a specially invited team leader.
Originally, Su Man should have taken the classmates to the competition, but now she has already submitted her resignation and completed the resignation process. It would be unreasonable for her to go with them.
Su Man hesitated and opened her email to reply.
It was only then that I discovered that in addition to the electronic invitation from the college, there were many more letters.
They are all sent by students in the school:
"Teacher Su, we hope that when we dance your choreography on stage, we can see your encouraging eyes from the audience..."
"Teacher Su, don't you want to see us accepting the award? We would be so sorry if you weren't in the final group photo..."
"Teacher Su, please accompany us a little longer..."
…
Su Man flipped through the emails and her eyes turned red involuntarily.
After more than two years of teaching career, Suman gained something more precious.
Su Man was moved and accepted the college's invitation.
This time, the team set out from Haicheng to City B for a week, which meant Su Man had to leave home for a week.
That's good. She was almost suffocated after being locked up at home by Xiao Beisheng. She wanted to go out for some fresh air and avoid Mu Chuchu's affairs.
She didn't want to face Xiao Beisheng right now.
Su Man began to pack her luggage for the journey with excitement and nervousness.
The only drawback was that the main teacher leading the group was Lu Xiaomin, who had a problem with Su Man, so this trip was destined to be turbulent.
