Chapter 291: Having Such a Wife
Suman is also shocked.
It turns out that the backs of the heads that look very similar come from the same person.
The guest of Cheng Law Firm turned out to be Xiao Beisheng.
Xiao Beisheng's gaze slid across Su Man's face for only a second, then moved away and went to Xiao Tian.
Although it was only a second, Suman's heart beat faster.
It seemed to have triggered an undercurrent.
But in fact, Xiao Beisheng didn't have any expression, and that look didn't have any special meaning, so it seemed like Su Man was being self-indulgent and had a head full of weird thoughts.
Actually, it’s not her fault.
Ever since she helped Shen Qing plead for mercy last time and was taken to the hotel by Xiao Beisheng, Su Man always had this feeling when they met.
Her body responded to him.
Su Man swallowed and turned her head away.
Lawyer Cheng looked at Xiao Beisheng and said hurriedly, "Oh! I forgot to tell you! Beisheng, your cousin said she wants to entrust me with a lawsuit. I didn't expect you to come here so suddenly today."
"Oh?" Xiao Beisheng stared at Xiao Tian, who lowered his head guiltily.
"What lawsuit do you have?"
"I..." Xiao Tian mumbled something vaguely, and it didn't sound like words that could be understood.
"Speak nicely."
Xiao Beisheng's voice suddenly became stern.
Xiao Tian curled her lips and looked at Su Man for help.
Xiao Beisheng didn't intend to let her go, and asked harshly: "Or, are you just trying to have fun and deliberately waste other people's time?"
Xiao Tian was also anxious, and immediately defended herself: "No! I really have something important to do! Teacher Su can vouch for me!"
Su Man was suddenly called out, and she almost stuttered:
"Yes, I can vouch for her."
Xiao Beisheng looked suspicious.
Xiao Tian was worried that Xiao Beisheng would ask too many questions, so she took the initiative to shut him up: "I'm already in my early twenties! I'm an adult! I can make my own decisions. Don't always control me like a child. Besides, I don't want you to interfere in this matter!"
"Adults?"
"right!"
"Don't want the elders to interfere?"
"Yes!"
"You want to make your own decisions?"
“That’s right!!”
Xiao Beisheng confirmed three times, and Xiao Tian also answered unusually loudly, fearing that Xiao Beisheng would disagree.
In fact, according to Xiao Tian's past experience, her protests would have no effect on Xiao Beisheng. In the Xiao family, Xiao Beisheng was the one who had the final say. As long as he was a little tough, no one else could say anything.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Beisheng said at this time: "Okay. I don't care about you."
He looked at Su Man: "Teacher Su, come with me and wait outside. Xiao Tian doesn't need the interference of her elders."
"ah?"
"ha?"
Su Man and Xiao Tian were both dumbfounded.
"It's not that I don't need the intervention of my elders... I just, I just don't need you... I want Teacher Su to accompany me." Xiao Tian was in a panic.
Xiao Beisheng said, "Your behavior doesn't seem to indicate you're more than 18 years old. How dare you say you're an adult and can make your own decisions? I don't think you've even thought about what you want to do."
He said nothing good about Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian was furious. "Why am I so immature? I asked Teacher Su to accompany me, not to help me with anything. I just wanted her to keep me brave!"
Before Su Man could speak, Xiao Tian spoke first. Little did she know that Xiao Tian had fallen into a trap set by Xiao Beisheng.
"Oh? In that case, there's no need for your teacher Su to accompany you throughout the whole process. After all, the case involves your personal privacy. Your affairs are also the Xiao family's affairs. Your teacher Su is an outsider and has no right to know about the Xiao family's privacy. As for your need for courage, I'm here now. Your teacher Su and I are waiting for you outside to give you courage."
After saying that, he looked at Su Man and said, "Teacher Su, let's go?"
It was clearly a question, but it contained an irresistible pressure.
"I'd better stay with Tiantian. I promised to accompany her and I can't go back on my word." Su Man gritted her teeth and stood her ground.
"Teacher Su is so insistent, can I understand that you want to pry into the Xiao family's privacy?"
“…”
No matter what Su Man said, Xiao Beisheng could find logical loopholes and break them one by one.
Su Man looked back at Xiao Tian. The two of them looked like a pair of young lovers who were forced to separate. Because they did not have the support and blessings of their families, they could only say goodbye reluctantly with hatred.
There was no way. Xiao Tian had been living under Xiao Beisheng's silver power for more than 20 years since she left her mother's womb. She had become accustomed to the oppression and could not resist at all.
And Suman...
She also wanted to stay and solve her doubts herself! !
However, she is really an outsider to the Xiao family.
How hateful!
Xiao Beisheng is so hateful!
When Su Man walked out of the door and passed by Xiao Beisheng, she glanced at him with resentment at a speed that she thought Xiao Beisheng could not catch, and then quickly looked away.
Behind him, the door of the reception room closed.
Lawyer Cheng and Xiao Tian stayed inside.
Su Man walked towards the waiting area, silently praying in her heart: Tiantian, you have to fight for your life. The teacher's questions and the happiness of our family are all in your hands...
She was lost in thought, still considering whether to use her cell phone to send a message to Xiao Tian, so that they could work together from inside and outside, when she heard footsteps approaching from behind. Xiao Beisheng came up and grabbed her, pulling her outside.
Su Man almost dropped her phone. When she saw it was Xiao Beisheng, she was so angry that she almost pushed him away.
But she couldn't shake it off.
"Mr. Xiao, please respect yourself and don't make trouble in this kind of situation. There are surveillance cameras everywhere." Su Man also fought back against him in the same tone as before.
But she couldn't intimidate Xiao Beisheng at all.
The latter pulled her to the terrace behind the law firm and then let go of her hand. "There's no one here, and there are no surveillance cameras. Is this the place you were looking for?"
"I didn't want to go out with you at all!" Su Man glared at him angrily.
It was clearly him who pulled her back, but now he is biting her back. He is really crying thief.
Xiao Beisheng turned around, one hand still in his trouser pocket, the other on the balcony railing, looking out at the greenery in the garden below the law firm. "Although there's no one here right now, most staff members who are tired from work will come to the balcony to get some fresh air. If you want everyone to know that Qiao Shiyan's wife has come to the law firm, you can be louder."
Su Man was speechless after being blocked by him.
Indeed, she was on a "secret visit" today, investigating secretly, and could not reveal her true identity, otherwise it would embarrass Qiao Shiyan.
It's magical to say, Xiao Beisheng's mouth seemed to be blessed. Not long after he finished speaking, two women in professional suits came to the terrace whispering to each other.
Judging from his smart professional attire, he should be a lawyer in a law firm.
The law firm's different office areas are on different floors, and the terraces are also divided into many levels.
Xiao Beisheng and Su Man are now on the fifth floor.
The two female staff members were on the floor below them.
So it was not easy for them to find Su Man and Xiao Beisheng, but Su Man and Xiao Beisheng could see their situation clearly.
"Sister Linda, I still miss Lawyer Qiao so much... I almost went crazy these few days when he wasn't here. Yesterday, I even went for a walk near his house. It would have been nice if I could just see him for a moment." The woman in a professional dress sounded aggrieved, but what she said shocked Su Man.
The other woman in a business suit sighed and said in a slightly more mature tone, "I'm not saying anything bad about you, Luna, but you should be more careful. Lawyer Qiao is a family man."
"I know, but I just can't help myself."
Su Man's eyes opened. What incredible secret of workplace crush had she heard?
She was so shocked that she forgot she was angry with Xiao Beisheng. She turned back and looked at him, expressing her surprise with her eyes.
Xiao Beisheng raised his chin with an ambiguous smile, indicating that she should continue listening.
Luna was now indignant: "How could such a good man as Lawyer Qiao end up with such a wife? She caused him to lose his job and tarnished his career."
