Chapter 282 Note
In recent weeks, whenever Su Man went to the old house to teach Xiao Tian, she would encounter Xiao Beisheng and Luo Yan entertaining guests in the main house, and the whole hall was filled with smoke.
She only came once a week and found it unbearable. She couldn't believe how much torture Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Tian who lived here were suffering.
Old Madam Xiao has been bedridden since she fell ill last time.
After class, Su Man would stop by Kun Building to see the old lady.
When going downstairs, Xiao Beisheng was standing behind Luo Yan, smoking a cigarette, watching her play cards.
The smoke filled the lamp, casting a hazy glow.
Xiao Beisheng's cold, British-style eyes and brows seemed dreamy and illusory.
He occasionally gave Luo Yan some pointers, but was teased by his opponents, who accused him of favoring Luo Yan. Luo Yan lightly kicked the person who started the teasing with the tip of his shoe, but kept a smile on his face.
Xiao Beisheng's attention was on Luo Yan from beginning to end, and he didn't notice Su Man. Su Man couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.
But the others at the table noticed Suman.
After a while, the voices gradually died down, and everyone looked at Su Man with astonishment.
This group of people were not the ones who chased Su Man last time. No one knew how the matter was handled after the last disturbance. In short, Su Man never met that group of people again when she came to class.
But Yu Hanming is common.
Yu Hanming is also here tonight.
Su Man noticed those gazes, so she looked away early and quickened her pace.
Yu Hanming suddenly said without thinking: "Beauty is a disaster."
No one paid any attention to him.
Su Man's graceful figure and every step she takes touch everyone's heart.
There was a sound of cards falling. Xiao Beisheng said calmly, "I lost."
At this moment, everyone at the table finally woke up, came to their senses, looked at their cards, and started to bluff: "Boss Xiao is so dishonest! Helping your sister-in-law cheat like this?"
"Forget it, forget it. We all know that Mr. Xiao dotes on his wife, so let him dote on her. It's our honor to do us a favor, right?"
Several people's attention was drawn back to the card table, and Su Man took the opportunity to walk out the door.
When they arrived downstairs at Kun Building, Su Man and Tao Jinmei met each other. As soon as Tao Jinmei saw Su Man, the smile on her face immediately disappeared.
Although the original smile was not funny at all, it was a kind of smug and sarcastic smile from a villain.
Su Man pretended not to see anything and passed by Tao Jinmei, but Tao Jinmei stopped her and said, "Wait."
Su Man took a deep breath, turned around, and put on a more respectful expression: "Madam, what's the matter?"
"Why didn't you say hello when you saw me?"
Su Man said, "I was about to hit her, but Madam looked like she didn't want to see me. I was afraid of upsetting her, so I kept quiet."
"Hmph, you're such a sharp-tongued person. But you're right about one thing. I really don't want to see you. Seeing you makes me feel annoyed. If you have any self-awareness, just quit this job and don't show up here again."
Before Tao Jinmei finished scolding, a voice came from Kunlou:
"Teacher Su——"
Aunt Mei called out.
"Teacher Su, the old lady is calling you, please come in quickly."
This is to rescue Suman.
Su Man quickly responded, "Coming."
She nodded slightly to Tao Jinmei, walked into Kun Building, and left Tao Jinmei with an angry look on her face.
Old Madam Xiao was still lying in bed. She looked a little thinner, but her complexion was still good.
Su Man briefly asked about the old lady's health. The old lady gave her some instructions about the children, and then kept complaining to Su Man, saying that Xiao Beisheng had really been led astray by Tao Jinmei and Luo Yan recently.
Su Man listened silently without saying a word.
When Old Madam Xiao finished speaking, she felt bored, sighed, and said, "Forget it, go away."
Su Man said goodbye to Mrs. Xiao and left Kunlou, where she met the driver, Lao Li, who was seeing Luo Yan off.
Somehow, Lao Li bumped into Su Man and apologized profusely: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Su Man helped Lao Li up and said, "It's okay."
Luo Yan turned around and glared at the two of them, saying unhappily, "Are you done yet? My friend is still waiting for me to pick him up!"
Old Li hurried over and said, "Here comes Madam."
Luo Yan and Lao Li disappeared into the night.
Su Man walked back to the main house, holding the note that Lao Li had just secretly slipped in.
Seeing that there was no one around, she unfolded the note.
