Chapter 243: Make Way for the Owner
Su Man looked at Xiao Beisheng and retorted bluntly: "Where do you get your confidence from?"
Xiao Beisheng's brows sank slightly.
You can provoke a tiger, but you can't go too far. Su Man immediately changed the subject, "Shi Yan brought me here, and I don't know what he was going to do. If you hadn't blocked our way, we wouldn't have cared where this place was, who was here, or what they were doing."
"Where are you going?" Xiao Beisheng glanced at the residential area on the other side of the Lu family residence. "Do you know where that is?"
Su Man looked at Xiao Beisheng with an expression that said, "Should I know?"
"That's a high-end, antique-style villa complex built by a famous designer, modeled after the Suzhou gardens. The pre-sale price is 800,000 yuan per square meter. As far as I know, the houses haven't been put on the market yet."
Xiao Beisheng almost said directly that Su Man and Qiao Shiyan could not afford to buy there.
Su Man wanted to say, why do you look down on others?
But Xiao Beisheng was right.
Suman really couldn't afford it.
She just calculated silently.
The price is 800,000 yuan per square meter, and these buildings are estimated to be around 500 to 600 square meters. All in all, a house will cost 480 million yuan... This is not the area of the house stated in the contract, and the total price will be even higher.
Even if I sell Suman, I still can't make up the difference.
Su Man felt that Qiao Shiyan probably couldn't afford it either.
Qiao Shiyan came to Haicheng alone to work hard. As a lawyer, his income can only be considered upper-middle class, which is not comparable to Xiao Beisheng. It is already very good to be able to gain a foothold in Haicheng, let alone buy such a luxury house where every inch of land is worth a lot of money.
Luo Yan walked over and took Xiao Beisheng's arm as if to claim her sovereignty. "I just told her the same thing, but she refused to acknowledge it. She insisted on pestering me and even pretended to have a stomachache."
The female manager taunted him, "Don't act rich just to save face. After all, most people can't afford a house here. I advise you to go back quickly, or else the property management will come and embarrass you even more."
As she spoke, the female manager suddenly cried out "Ouch".
Pointing at Luo Yan's wedding dress, he shouted, "Madam! Your wedding dress has been snagged!"
"Ah?" Luo Yan hurriedly lowered her head to check, and sure enough, there was a tear in the pleats where the waist connected to the hem of the skirt.
"Beisheng, what should we do? Designer Allan rushed this out, and the wedding is only a few days away...it's all your fault!"
Luo Yan looked at Su Man angrily.
Su Man said with a smile: "Just now you were the one who wanted to push me, but failed to do anything and ended up falling down. Now you are blaming me? You wouldn't be so good as to try to scam me."
Luo Yan couldn't argue with Su Man, so he rushed forward and tried to attack her, but was stopped by Xiao Beisheng.
"Beisheng!" Luo Yan was dissatisfied.
Xiao Beisheng pulled her back to him, held her hand, and said to Su Man, "Apologize to her."
Luo Yan felt bad. Xiao Beisheng seemed to be on her side, but he just asked Su Man to apologize?
This is too cheap for Suman.
Su Man frowned: "What did I do? Should I apologize to her?"
"If you don't apologize, can you afford to compensate for this skirt?" Xiao Beisheng sneered.
"I shouldn't have to pay in the first place. I can understand Mr. Xiao's protectiveness, but being so indiscriminate is really rude."
"Why would I talk about manners with someone I don't have any connection with?"
Xiao Beisheng was openly favoring Luo Yan.
Suddenly, Su Man recalled the past, the days she spent with Xiao Beisheng.
At that time, Xiao Beisheng also gave Su Man the greatest preference in front of others.
Su Man still remembers what he said.
He protected Su Man in front of others, chose to believe Su Man, helped her teach those who bullied her a lesson, and said that he was not here to judge the matter, but to support Su Man.
But now, the person he supports has changed from Su Man to Luo Yan.
In fact, it has always been Luo Yan.
Su Man only "stole" Luo Yan's privilege for a short time.
Su Man looked at Xiao Beisheng, who had sharp eyebrows and eyes, and was handsome and stern. If this man wanted to protect a woman, he would really have a fascinating charm.
Su Man suddenly didn't want to argue anymore.
There is no such thing as right or wrong, who is right or wrong?
Xiao Beisheng stood beside Luo Yan and said it was Su Man's fault, so it was Su Man's fault.
Su Man has always been the loser in front of Luo Yan.
She smiled self-deprecatingly, her beautiful fox eyes sparkling, lonely, yet beautiful and eye-catching. "Boss Xiao is right. You are not here to seek justice. For someone as powerful as you, calling a horse a zebra is no big deal. I hope that after I apologize, Boss Xiao will let me go."
Xiao Beisheng frowned.
Su Man turned to Luo Yan, flexible and graceful: "Mrs. Xiao, I'm sorry..."
As soon as she apologized, Su Man felt a sudden sharp pain in her lower abdomen.
She held her stomach and doubled over.
Normally, this pain only needs to be endured for a short while, but now, the pain did not go away immediately, but became more and more severe.
She frowned and bent her body lower and lower.
The female manager tutted in disgust, "Here we go again! Here we go again! You pretended to be in pain just now and almost tricked our employees, and now you're pretending again. Ma'am, have you ever heard the story of the boy who cried wolf? A self-torture trick might work once, but you keep using it, thinking everyone is a fool and falls for it every time."
"Su Man, stop pretending." Xiao Beisheng's voice was cold and tense, hard and hard, coming down on Su Man, making her upset.
My lower abdomen hurts more.
"Suman!"
Qiao Shiyan is back.
He pushed aside the female manager and rushed to Su Man, looking worried: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell again?"
Su Man raised her face, her lips pale on her small face, and she nodded pitifully.
Without saying a word, Qiao Shiyan picked up Su Man and carried her horizontally. Xiao Beisheng and Luo Yan stood in front of him. Qiao Shiyan said with a cold face, "Please make way for me. My fiancée is pregnant. If anything goes wrong, I'm afraid you two can't bear the responsibility."
As soon as the word "pregnant" came out, the aggressive female manager was suddenly stunned.
It turns out he wasn't pretending.
It’s really uncomfortable!
Still a pregnant woman.
It’s not one person, it’s two people!
If something really went wrong and the other party pursued the matter, wouldn't her career be over?
The female manager was visibly panicked and looked at Luo Yan for help.
How could Luo Yan have the time to care about her?
Ever since Su Man squatted down because she felt unwell, Xiao Beisheng looked nervous, his eyes were always locked on Su Man, and all his attention was focused on Su Man.
If Luo Yan hadn't held his hand, he might have rushed to Su Man.
Luo Yan glared at Su Man angrily, holding Xiao Beisheng's hand tightly.
Following Qiao Shiyan were the property representative and the security captain. The security captain helped Qiao Shiyan by supporting people and clearing the way, as if he were worshipping an ancestor.
The property representative pulled up the cordon blocking the road and scolded:
"Why did you block this road? How are the residents here supposed to get home? Seriously, you wedding companies are just organizing an event, but you really treat this place like your own home?"
"Owner...Owner?" Luo Yan was stunned.
"Yes, sir, this is the owner of the house inside. Please get out of the way and don't block our owner from returning home."
The property representative was not polite at all and didn't care about Xiao Beisheng and Luo Yan's identities. He pushed them all to the side of the road and, together with the security captain, stopped them and cleared the way for Qiao Shiyan's car.
Xiao Beisheng looked at Qiao Shiyan's back as he held Su Man in his arms, the gray in his eyes becoming darker.
