"So ... a man who respects me and thinks I'm someone to protect comes before me, and falling in love with him doesn't seem like a weird thing."

Chapter 04

Susu couldn't help feeling a little dazed, for a while she didn't know who she should be jealous of.

But this trance quickly recovered, because Susu found that Shi Man was just remembering instead of nostalgic.Even if Shi Man cared about Xiao Nan any more, she had already cut off her feelings cruelly when she learned the truth.

More importantly, Susu bit her lower lip and asked cautiously: "I thought...you would say that women can rely on themselves and don't need a man's protection."

She heard Shi Man's implication.

"Just because I have the ability to protect myself doesn't mean I don't need to be treated gently." Even after saying this, Shi Man's expression and posture are still full of confidence and pride, as if she would never bow her head for anything , "Besides, only the weak shy away from mentioning their weaknesses."

Susu opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but finally closed her mouth sullenly, without saying anything.

"Do you want to hear a story?" Shi Man asked without missing Susu's expression.

Nodding, then shaking her head, Susu said softly: "I want to know. But I don't want to know now." Subconsciously, she leaned forward and put both hands on Shi Man's flat left hand, "I...I want to protect you."

A trace of surprise flashed in Shi Man's eyes.

As she said, she has investigated Susu and knows what kind of person she is.Susu is very slow, and maintains a dispensable attitude towards many things.This indifferent attitude is even reflected in many things that hurt Susu herself.It was as if she knew about Xiao Nan's betrayal, and she would lightly brush off the matter.

It took Xiao Nan a lot of time to become boyfriend and girlfriend with her, and it took years and years of hard work for Susu to truly accept him.

To be honest, Shi Man appreciates Susu's character very much.

Susu's slowness and indifference are not easy to bully, but represent seriousness, and it will not change after it is confirmed. If you like it, you like it, and betrayal is betrayal.If it wasn't for Xiao Nan's cheating, after deciding to be with him, Susu would never leave this man for the rest of her life.

Shi Man is a very purposeful person in doing things.She knew that what she needed was nothing but the safety that Susu could bring her; and she also knew what Susu needed, Xiao Nan could attack Susu, there was no reason why she could not do it if she prescribed the right medicine.It's just that she didn't expect Susu to accept her so quickly.

"Actually, are you busy?" As if knowing Shi Man's doubts, Su Su said slowly, a little embarrassed, "Before... when Xiao Nan and I were together, he would always receive various calls, He has a lot of things to deal with, and he may say sorry to me and leave at any time. I don't understand business, but I know you must do better than Xiao Nan. There is no reason for you to be more leisurely at work. But when I was with you, you never took a call from work, you just dropped me downstairs before leaving."

"Actually, I know you don't like me, and I don't like you either." After a pause, Susu added, "Well... maybe love is more suitable here, because I don't hate you. And I'm with you , I feel very happy and comfortable, without any grievances. This is certainly impossible. We have such a fit, and there is a little run-in between even close friends. I can have such a comfortable experience, it must be Because you sacrificed a lot behind your back to accommodate me."

Susu raised her head and looked at her, her eyes were soft, like a pool of spring water, "I can feel your sincerity, Shi Man. I can't let you do it alone, I...I want to protect you too."

At first I was a little embarrassed, but Susu started to let herself go as she spoke.Susu usually doesn't talk much, and it's rare for her to say such a long paragraph.After seriously talking about her feelings and decisions these days, she gasped a little, but stared at Shi Man with sparkling eyes, as if she was waiting for some response.

Shi Man laughed, took a clean cup beside her, and poured Susu a cup of tea.

Subconsciously took it, Susu's fingertips trembled from the warmth of the porcelain cup mixed with coolness.Seeing that Shi Man didn't seem to have the intention to speak, she couldn't help asking weakly: "Don't you want to say something?"

"Take a sip of tea first." Shi Man said as she casually removed the milk tea in front of her, "Drinking milk tea now is a bit greasy and easy to choke."

Susu subconsciously swallowed the tea in the cup as she said, put down the cup and stared blankly at Shi Man.

Shi Man actually listened to her words, but Susu raised her head like this, with a blank and expectant expression, which is really cute.Just like the rabbit when we first met, she couldn't help but want to tease her a little bit.

However, Shi Man knew that if she continued to tease her, Susu noticed that she was about to blow up, so she quickly stopped, "You mean, did I successfully become a regular?"

"Hmm..." Susu, the rabbit whose fur had been patted softly back, let out an inexplicable grunt.

"The matter about Xiao Nan..." Hearing Shi Man mentioning this person again, Susu subconsciously straightened up, and returned to the state that was about to explode just now.

Shi Man couldn't hold back a chuckle, "Don't be nervous." She stretched out her hand, imitating Susu's action just now, and put her hands on Susu's hand, "I do care a little, so I won't say it now I'll tell you when I don't care about it at all."

"Well. Of course you can't just let him go, but other than that, don't pay too much attention to him." Susu nodded, her tone was very serious, "Now you only need to care about me."

"I see." Shi Man squeezed Susu's fingertips, "What I want to say is that there will be a more formal banquet in a while, you can go with me. Regarding Xiao Nan, I think That's when a conclusion can be drawn."

Noticing the eagerness in Susu's eyes, Shi Man added without waiting for her to speak, "You can do whatever you want."

Susu took another sip of the milk tea that was removed by Shi Man, and showed a cute smile, "You are so kind."

In the next few days, the relationship between Shi Man and Susu can be said to develop by leaps and bounds.

Needless to say, Susu, as a freelancer, her working hours are at her own disposal.She has a fixed investment income, and she doesn't have any pursuits. She doesn't want to make a lot of money, as long as she doesn't starve herself to death, she can naturally spare a lot of time to fall in love with young ladies.

And Shi Man also specially pushed the work matters to his subordinates, sticking with Susu every day.

Susu mentioned it to her a few times, emphasizing that she didn't want Shi Man to delay her work because of her own reasons. She was not the kind of person who insisted on being accompanied by others.If Shi Man wants to meet her more often, Susu can also cook for her every day and send it to Yunyun.

What Shi Man said about this is that during this period of time, the company is just about to transform and do some other business.Afterwards, the focus of her work will be shifted to the new business. The old business itself is to be brought to the current part of the subordinates. Now it is a work handover. I am afraid that something will happen to them, so they will not take over immediately. new job.But if no one contacts her, there is no need to intervene in the work.

Susu believes in developing new business, but she is a little skeptical of Shi Man's statement.

Occasionally, she caught Shi Man's work call a few times, and Shi Man didn't specifically avoid her, so Susu heard a little bit.It is obvious that there is a plan and regulations for the matter of expanding outwards. It is not a sudden decision in a day or two. There is no reason why the managers hired with high salaries are so prone to mistakes.

"I just think the money is too much, so I want to spend a month playing with it, can't I?" Shi Man asked with a smile on Susu's question.
