Chapter 257: I Can't Bring It Down
Xiao Tian was very unconvinced, but she was afraid of Xiao Beisheng, so she didn't dare to talk back.
Xiao Beisheng continued, "Come here and call for help."
Xiao Tian was indignant. He glanced at Su Man with red eyes, then let go of Su Man's hand and walked over obediently.
"Cousin." She called Xiao Beisheng, then turned around and called Luo Yan, "Cousin."
"I'm done with get out of class, and I need to see Teacher Su out now."
Xiao Beisheng automatically ignored her next sentence, "What about the other uncles?"
Someone next to him advised: "Okay, Mr. Xiao, don't scare the little girl. She's about to cry."
Xiao Beisheng said to Xiao Tian, "Be more polite next time."
This is considered letting her go.
Without saying a word, Xiao Tian turned around and ran back to Su Man, quickening his pace to walk out.
At this time, I met Aunt Mei who came in.
Aunt Mei saw Su Man and said hurriedly, "Teacher Su, please wait in the hall for a while. The old lady will bring the child over herself."
Here?
Su Man looked at the people playing cards in the hall and hesitated.
"Mrs. Xiao said she had something to tell you personally," Aunt Mei said.
"Oh well."
Su Man had no choice but to agree. Aunt Mei turned and went out. It was unclear whether she was going back to report or to continue her work.
Xiao Tian pulled Su Man to the other side of the hall and sat down.
This is a giant viewing platform with an artificial fish pond carved out of the ground, housing several large koi fish.
Next to it is a set of pearwood tables and chairs, and next to it stands a six-meter-wide sandalwood carved hollow screen.
Usually, the old lady likes to receive guests here, chat and drink tea with close guests.
Xiao Tian brought Su Man to sit here. The screen blocked the people playing mahjong on the other side, creating a brief piece of pure land.
But after sitting for a while, Su Man noticed that Xiao Tian felt a little uneasy.
The little girl probably felt embarrassed after being scolded by Xiao Beisheng in public.
Su Man saw what she was thinking and said to her, "You still have to go to school tomorrow, right? It's very late now, go back to your room and sleep first."
"Then... Is it okay for Teacher Su Man to be here alone?"
"It's okay." Su Man comforted her.
"Then... then I'll go upstairs first. Goodbye, Teacher Su."
"See you next week."
Xiao Tian jogged all the way up the stairs. When passing by Xiao Beisheng and the others, he didn't dare to stop for a moment, for fear of being called.
Su Man sat behind the screen, quietly waiting for Madam Xiao.
She was alone, and it was already quiet, and the sound of bubbles swaying from the koi's tails and the gurgling water in the rockery around her was even louder.
On the other side of the screen, the sound of shuffling cards seemed particularly harsh.
Suman heard every word of the discussion clearly:
"That person just now, was that the dance teacher hired by your Xiao family? People who study art are different, and dancing is even more amazing, with that figure and that temperament!"
"Mr. Zhou has taken a fancy to her? How about asking Mr. Xiao to help you connect them and act as a matchmaker?"
"Yes, yes, the dance teacher chosen by the Xiao family must be good. The Xiao family has already helped to select one. Don't worry, Mr. Zhou! It's worth it to sleep with her for a night! That waist... must be very soft..." A lewd laugh.
Those people spoke in a vulgar manner, and Su Man felt uneasy.
It’s not that she can’t bear it. She has heard even more disgusting and vulgar discussions in person. This level is still considered mild.
What Su Man didn't expect was that she would hear these words from people around Xiao Beisheng.
According to her previous understanding of Xiao Beisheng, Xiao Beisheng's social circle mostly consists of well-known industry leaders. These leaders are very careful about their reputation and pay attention to their external image. Most of them will establish a humble and gentlemanly personality, and their conversation and behavior will not be bad.
It will definitely not be like it is now, with a greasy smell between the lines.
These days, she has heard a little about Dingsheng's development and Xiao Beisheng's movements.
Xiao Beisheng let Tao Jinmei get in touch with some of Dingsheng's business.
He also began to support his half-brother, Yu Hanming, the young master of the Yu family.
In order to support his younger brother, Xiao Beisheng even suspended his previously profitable projects and put all his energy into Yu Hanming.
He is stupid and has a lot of money. He just takes his own company's money and throws it at his brother.
Xiao Beisheng also gave Dingsheng's emerging hot industry to his younger brother to manage, with the profits split 20:80, with Xiao Beisheng taking 20% and his younger brother taking 80%, which was almost free of charge.
Ever since Xiao Beisheng married Luo Yan, he seemed to have lost his mind.
The people I interact with are all from all walks of life.
At this point their vulgar talk took a different turn.
Came to Yu Hanming.
"I haven't seen Mr. Xiaoming for a few months. You've changed a lot. I remember you used to have blonde hair. Why did you dye it back? You only have one earring. I saw you had so many on your ears before!"
A young voice answered, and Su Man thought it must be Yu Hanming: "Sister Luo Yan took me to dye my hair. Sister Luo Yan is my official stylist!"
"That's what I thought! Mr. Xiaoming's image has become more and more reliable recently. He looks like a big boss at first glance."
"It has to be Mrs. Xiao. With her help and advice, Mr. Xiao has nothing to worry about his brother."
…
Su Man listened carefully.
It seems that Luo Yan and Yu Hanming have a good relationship.
Luo Yan not only gets along well with Tao Jinmei, but also with Yu Hanming. She also has the trust of her brother-in-law. She has a clear grasp of the relationships between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and uncle and sister-in-law.
In the eyes of outsiders and insiders like Xiao Beisheng, the decision seemed foolish, but it was probably all for Luo Yan.
After all, what can't a "romantic guy" who is willing to snatch someone else's child and give it to Luo Yan to raise do?
Su Man felt depressed.
It was probably because of the group of people smoking that the environment in the entire hall was polluted.
As the conversation went on, the topic returned to Suman.
And it sounds like he wants to take the initiative to strike up more conversations:
"Hey? That dance teacher has been sitting there alone for a long time. Do you want to invite her over and play with us?"
"Yeah, yeah, it's so boring to be alone. It's not good for us to leave her out like this. Let her come over. She can make friends. What if she falls in love with Mr. Zhou?"
Xiao Beisheng had not commented on Su Man's topic just now, as if he was not interested.
At this moment, someone suddenly spoke up, his voice lazy, as if talking to an unrelated stranger: "I don't think that's possible. She's married, has a husband and children, and probably won't pay attention to you."
Those people burst into laughter and were extremely disappointed.
Someone said, "That's not a big deal! It's nice to make friends."
"You just want to have fun, why not have a young, virgin girl to play with? Why bother with this one...who has given birth to a child. You say she has a good figure? Not necessarily. I think her figure is out of shape, and there's even some fat on her chin. Anyway, I can't eat her." Xiao Beisheng was disgusted.
Suman was furious.
Out of shape?!
Chin fat?!
How is that possible!
She stood up and went to the bathroom.
She didn't want to stay there and listen to them judging her.
