Compared to before, Li Man who had explained all the things was more relaxed, and no longer had to be as emotionally tense as before.

Li Man looked down at the bracelet on Song Chuji's wrist, with a hint of joy in her heart.

She asked: "But you don't usually wear these, and now you suddenly wear them, won't it be uncomfortable?"

Song Chuji: "No."

Li Man blinked, and said nothing more.

Song Chuji asked another question: "Is the money still enough?"

Li Man didn't expect that this was Song Chuji's question, and she somehow felt like a parent.

But it's not a secret that can't be told, so Li Man shook her head lightly, "To be honest, it's not enough."

Regarding her own situation, although Li Man was ashamed, she was not overly ashamed, but learned to be calm.

"You also know that before, I could receive a generous amount of pocket money without doing anything, but now I voluntarily refuse it, so I changed from extravagance to frugality all at once. I can get used to it , that must be a lie."

"So the current salary, I still think it's a bit low."

Li Man smiled: "But I will adapt as soon as possible."

There's nothing I can do if I don't get used to it, Li Man really wants to change.

When she told Uncle Song about this before, he was very surprised and wondered if Li Man had encountered some problems.

But Li Man said that she just wanted to exercise herself, Song Shangyan expressed her understanding, and finally did what Li Man said.

But Li Man suspects that Song Shangyan is not optimistic, maybe the other party is still waiting for Li Man to repent.

Hearing Li Man's words, Song Chuji twitched his brows, "Are there many?"

Li Man: "Huh?"

Song Chuji: "Actually, I don't think you have a lot of pocket money."

Li Man opened her mouth, not knowing what to say, "Ah, is this like this?"

Should it be said that she is the eldest lady of the Song family?Compared with Song Chuji, Li Man is like a bumpkin who has never seen anything before.

Probably because of the slight drunkenness, Song Chuji's attitude became much calmer, and he no longer concealed some words that he didn't know how to say before.

She looked at Li Man and nodded very naturally.

"If it were me, I would send you more pocket money."

Li Man: ...

She scratched her cheek.

I always feel that the direction of the topic is a bit subtle and weird.

But Li Man still smiled, "But you can't give me pocket money."

What is that.

Song Chuji withdrew his gaze when he heard the words, lowered his eyes, "That's true."

But inexplicably, she just wanted to post.

While the two were sitting outside enjoying the cool breeze, a person found out.

"Chuji, so you are here."

It's Sufuxia.

Hearing the voice of an outsider, Song Chuji's originally relaxed and gentle movements and eyes changed, and he put away the side he showed in front of Li Man, and became cold and reserved again.

It's just that Li Man's attention was shifted to Su Fuxia, so she didn't notice Song Chuji's change.

Song Chuji said: "What's the matter?"

Su Fuxia approached and found that there was another person there, so she was slightly taken aback, and when she saw Li Man's appearance, she was even more taken aback.

"Who is this……"

Even though she asked this question, Su Fuxia actually knew this person.

Li Man came to Song's family when he was about to graduate from high school. Although Song Chuji had never mentioned this person in front of their friends, Su Fuxia had heard about him.

And after she left the country, she also heard about Li Man's existence from Ruan Lili's mouth.

However, for some reason, Su Fuxia had a subtle intuition that Song Chuji didn't hate Li Man as much as the rumors said.

Li Man also felt a little embarrassed, after all, every self-introduction was a symbol of embarrassment.

But fortunately, Song Chuji helped her solve this matter.

"Just call her Li Man."

As for Li Man's other identities, he didn't say much.

But it is precisely because there is not much to say that it is difficult for those who are interested in probing to ask face to face.

Seeing that Su Fuxia was in a bad mood, Song Chuji raised his eyes, "Have you seen her?"

Su Fuxia smiled gently, "Yes, when I was picking out gifts for you, I met Miss Li once."

Li Man also nodded.

But she didn't expect Su Fuxia to remember her.

Su Fuxia said: "At that time we met at Wanfu Jewelry, but I didn't stay long, because I felt that the price of the jewelry displayed and sold there was a bit too low, and it seemed impolite to give it as a gift, so I left. Seeing Miss Li There, I even looked at her."

Li Man: ...

Although she didn't know if Su Fuxia did it on purpose, or if she simply explained her own motive for leaving, Li Man felt subtly that she was being alluded to.

This is the art of speaking?

Li Man unconsciously glanced at Song Chuji.

Although the gift she gave didn't have a name printed on the box, but based on what Su Fuxia said just now and the price of the gift that Li Man gave, Song Chuji could easily guess that the gift that Li Man gave was from a shop that Su Fuxia didn't like. of.

Li Man pursed her lips lightly.

She wanted to refute something, but because it was a fact, she didn't know where to start.

But Song Chuji's reaction was as calm as ever, even indifferent.Although he drank some wine, with the cool wind blowing, the drunkenness has dissipated by five points, and he no longer has the softness when facing Li Man.

Su Fuxia said: "By the way, do you still like the gift I gave you?"

Song Chuji's tone was flat: "Ask the housekeeper to help put it away."

Su Fuxia didn't expect Song Chuji's reply to be so straightforward, she froze for a moment, and then curved her lips again: "Really, you should take a look, the bracelet I gave is very beautiful, it suits you very well."

"Speaking of which, you didn't like wearing jewelry when you were in middle school, and your wrists were bare, but when I looked at your hands at that time, I thought, you must be very suitable for wearing bracelets."

"After returning to China this time, I specially chose this gift for you. I just hope that you will like it. Why don't you even look at it?"

Su Fuxia wrinkled her nose, and said coquettishly: "But it cost me a lot of money."

Li Man stayed aside awkwardly, already thinking about retreating and leaving.

In the dark night, she is the brightest bulb.

Compared with Su Fuxia's almost deliberate attitude, Song Chuji was as indifferent as treating a stranger.

Su Fuxia said so many words just now, she just moved her eyelashes, and she didn't even have the patience to reply.

Su Fuxia wanted to continue to say something, but following Song Chuji's arms crossed her chest, her words also stopped.

Su Fuxia looked at the bracelet on Song Chuji's wrist, which obviously did not match her identity, and the words stuck between her lips.

"you……"

Li Man followed her gaze and looked over.

I didn't feel anything before, but now, I feel uncomfortable all over.

It was as if she had put some mark on Song Chuji.

Li Man's back exploded.

"I, I remember something else, so I'll go back first."

Song Chuji stopped her: "Should I go back tonight, or stay at Song's house?"

Li Man's hands and feet were stiff, "Let's live in Song's house."

Song Chuji nodded slightly, and let Li Man go.

After the third person disappeared, Su Fuxia couldn't hold back anymore.

"Is this bracelet from her?"

Song Chuji just raised his eyes, the emotions in his eyes were indifferent, and he didn't even change his movements.

Su Fuxia said: "I met her at Wanfu Jewelry that day, and I know that's where she bought her jewelry. Such a jewelry that costs less than [-] yuan at first glance, why do you..."

Song Chuji finally moved this time, raised his eyelids, and replied to her.

"Suffia, you take too much care."

Su Fuxia's voice suddenly stopped, even her breathing stopped.

"I……"

Song Chuji lowered his arms, "Is this matter related to you?"

The tone of her question was not harsh, even mild, but it made Su Fuxia's face change, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"You, do you still mind what happened before?"

Song Chuji frowned slightly, "I never cared about these things."

She used care, not mind.

I don't care, I really don't care at all, Su Fuxia even failed to leave a mark in her heart.

Su Fuxia's face turned pale, "Why do you always do this, always treat me like this... I have been following you for so long, just wanting to pursue the person I like, but you never give me a chance, always Reply to me in an indifferent tone, I'm not even as good as the daughter of the woman you hate, am I?"

Song Chuji looked at her, and smiled briefly. She stretched out her hand to comb her hair, and then asked, "Are you sure you want to know the real answer?"

Su Fuxia's complexion turned paler, and her whole body seemed to have a precarious sense of fragility.

Because the outdoors were no warmer than the indoors, she was already shivering from the cold.Coupled with Song Chuji's attitude, Su Fuxia felt even more uncomfortable.

"Chu Ji..."

Song Chuji was ready to leave.

"I received you today purely because you are the daughter of the Su family and have cooperation with the Song family. I can't keep you out of the door because of emotion or reason. But if you have a wrong association about it."

Song Chuji paused, his eyes were indifferent.

"Then I don't mind being cheeky and rejecting you again."

After speaking, Song Chuji was ready to go back to the house.

Su Fuxia looked at the back of the other party, and instantly thought of that time.

At that time, Song Chuji also left in such a ruthless manner.

Su Fuxia couldn't help but shed tears, "But I just like you!"

Song Chuji stopped in his tracks, lowered his eyes, and curled the corners of his lips coolly, not wanting to hide his attitude anymore.

She looked at Su Fuxia, "If you like me, do I have to respond to you?"

After speaking, she turned and left.

Li Man was "caught" by Chang Yanzhi after returning to the house.

The other party closed the door and asked her directly: "What's the situation with you and Song Chuji?"

Li Man blinked suspiciously, "What?"

Chang Yanzhi mentioned Song Chuji's reaction when Li Man gave gifts at the banquet.

Li Man: "Oh... You said this."

She thought for a while, "Because I told Song Chuji about my gift in advance, and she knew that my gift was not expensive, so during the banquet, she mistakenly thought that I was worried about losing face or she didn't like it, so she comforted me again."

It doesn't sound like a problem, but.

Chang Yanzhi narrowed her eyes: "Since when did your relationship with Song Chuji get so good? So good that she will comfort you?"

Li Man was a little shy and embarrassed, "Maybe it's because they work in the same office, so, it's because of their feelings."

Chang Yanzhi snorted, obviously disdainful.

Li Man said again: "Besides, Mom, look at Song Chuji's affirmation and liking in public when she knew the gift was cheap, which shows that she didn't deliberately plot against me like you said, and what she said was true. Yes, you, you can't misunderstand her too deeply."

Chang Yanzhi rolled her eyes, "That's why you don't understand. Do you know the price of the gift you gave me? The price is a thousand yuan! This kind of thing is given to Miss Song as a birthday present. What do you think outsiders will think?" think?"

Li Man opened her lips.

Chang Yanzhi: "If Song Chuji said again at this time, 'Ah, why does this jewelry look so cheap? It seems that it is less than 1 yuan. Who knows...Manman, do you have no money'."

Chang Yanzhi vividly interpreted that seemingly worried but provocative tone, which made Li Man's skin crawl when she saw it.

Chang Yanzhi looked at her coldly: "In this case, how should you explain it? Don't tell me you will just say stupidly, 'ah, but didn't you say you don't dislike it'."

Li Man: ...Oops, it hit the mark.

Seeing Li Man's expression at a glance, Chang Yanzhi sighed helplessly, "So, you know too little."

Li Man was still vaguely unconvinced, but she did not argue with Chang Yanzhi.

Chang Yanzhi said: "Mom just wants you to be more careful."

Li Man lowered her eyes and muttered softly: "One mind is enough, too much can't be eaten or drunk."

Chang Rouge: "You!"

Li Man shrank her neck.

Chang Yanzhi said bitterly: "Then you will keep a distance from Song Chuji from now on, do you know that! You are a typical person who is sold and paid for money."

Li Man didn't dare to speak anymore.

Chang Yanzhi asked another question: "Aren't you going to ask Uncle Song for pocket money?"

Li Man nodded, and repeated the previous explanation.

Chang Yanzhi raised her eyebrows slightly, feeling a new understanding of Li Man.

She didn't express any objection to this matter, but just smiled softly, "I also hope that you can succeed on your own, but..."

She raised her voice at the end slightly, she still didn't trust Li Man.

Li Man said: "Mom, just wait, I think I can definitely do it."

Chang Yanzhi's anger went away quickly, and she smiled when she heard the words, "Okay, then you can remember, I won't send you a penny."

Li Man made a gesture.

Chang Yanzhi: "Don't go back tonight, it's too late, did you drink some wine at night?"

Li Man: "It's that kind of fruit wine, I don't think it's alcoholic."

Chang Yanzhi's words cannot be refuted: "Fruit wine is also wine, don't take it seriously, just sleep here, anyway, there is everything, there is never a shortage."

Li Man could only nod.

After seeing off Chang Yanzhi, Li Man saw Song Chuji go upstairs.

She was slightly taken aback, remembering Chang Yanzhi's words.

Li Man's brain is really not enough, and she also hates this kind of plot where suspicion comes and goes.

Because it is difficult for Li Man to guess the correct answer.

She prefers to ask directly.

...Although, this will make her look even more stupid.

Song Chuji saw Li Man, and his expression softened, "It's so late, why are you still awake?"

Li Man subconsciously asked: "Suffia is gone?"

Song Chuji nodded without moving his expression.

Li Man felt that it was not good to directly ask for gifts, so she thought about turning a corner.

So she asked, "Is Su Fuxia really chasing you?"

After saying this, she wanted to slap her own mouth, which made her look even less intelligent!
