Chapter 167 Staying out all night
Chapter 167 Staying out all night
Jiang Man smiled awkwardly, "Actually, I'm not your sister-in-law." She hurriedly explained.
Upon hearing this, Yang Chen's eyes widened, and he looked back and forth between Chen Hao and Jiang Man. He chuckled, patted Chen Hao's shoulder, and whispered, "Come on, come on, keep up the good work."
Jiang Man looked at the two of them in confusion. "What are you talking about?" she asked.
Yang Chen touched his nose and said, "I still have things to do. Brother Hao, have fun." After saying that, he turned around and left.
"What did he say?" Jiang Man bumped Chen Hao's shoulder.
Chen Hao shook his head and chuckled, moving closer to her, "He said you are stunningly beautiful, like a fairy."
Jiang Man turned around and glared at Chen Hao, "You have no respect for your elders." She pinched Chen Hao and glared at him unhappily.
Jiang Man didn’t know if it was because of the wine, but she felt a little dizzy. She blinked and said, “Chen Hao, I seem to be a little drunk. Let’s go back.” She tugged at Chen Hao’s sleeve.
Seeing that her cheeks were flushed and she was obviously drunk, Chen Hao nodded.
He took her and left the bar.
Jiang Man sat in the car, drunken and hazy, with her eyes closed, breathing heavily, feeling a little hot. She licked her lips and said, "Chen Hao, turn on the air conditioner. I'm so hot."
"Why is it suddenly so hot?" Chen Hao looked at her in confusion and turned on the air conditioner.
"It must be the problem of that glass of wine." She answered with her head leaning against the car window and her eyes closed.
"Then you take a nap. I'll call you when we get there."
"Okay." Jiang Man responded, closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
The car quickly arrived at Jiang Man's residential area. Chen Hao parked the car. Jiang Man was sleeping soundly and snoring softly.
He was about to wake her up, but he pursed his lips, walked straight to the back seat, opened the door, and gently carried her out.
Jiang Man was sleeping soundly and was not woken up for a while.
Chen Hao held her all the way to her house, took out the key from her bag and opened the door.
During this series of actions, Jiang Man did not wake up. Chen Hao couldn't help but admire her sleeping skills.
After opening the door, he found the house warm and comfortable. He carried Jiang Man back to the bedroom with ease.
The blush on Jiang Man's face still hadn't faded.
He lowered his head, carefully tidied up the loose hair on her forehead, and gently kissed her on the lips, "Good night."
Jiang Lu stood at the door, stunned by the scene before her. When she saw Chen Hao stand up, she quickly hid in the next room.
Hearing the noise outside, Chen Hao walked out of the bedroom, but did not find anything unusual.
He raised his eyebrows and said coldly, "Watch your mouth."
Jiang Lu hid in the dark, covering her mouth tightly, for fear of being discovered.
Soon, she heard the sound of a door closing outside the house, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
The next morning, Jiang Man yawned, looked around, and understood what was going on.
It was obvious that Chen Hao escorted her back home safely.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes, glanced at her watch in a daze, and was stunned for a moment. The hour hand had quietly pointed to 7:30.
She got up quickly and rushed out in a hurry.
Xuanxuan was sitting in the living room, chewing on a piece of bread. "Mom," he called vaguely.
"Mom, you're really becoming more and more lazy in bed. You don't even make breakfast." Xuanxuan swallowed the food in his mouth and muttered with a little dissatisfaction.
Jiang Man was busy putting on his shoes at the entrance, looking at Xuanxuan apologetically.
"Uncle said that when he is not at home, you always stay out all night. He will teach you a lesson when he comes back." Xuanxuan warned Jiang Man seriously.
Jiang Man's expression froze. "How did he know I wouldn't come back all night?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Xuanxuan suddenly fell silent, turned his eyes to the TV, and pretended that he knew nothing.
Jiang Man knew it all, and a hint of jealousy could not help but rise in his heart, "When did you become the same person as Uncle Su?"
Xuanxuan blinked his eyes. Although he didn't quite understand the specific meaning of "wearing the same pants", his intuition told him that this should not be a good thing.
He pouted and said, "Mom, you can't say that about your uncle."
"Uncle is actually worried about your safety." Having said that, Xuanxuan nodded solemnly.
Jiang Man held his forehead helplessly and said, "I have to go to work. Remember to go play with Grandma Yang later."
"Yeah, yeah." Xuanxuan nodded repeatedly, "By the way, Mom..." He ran over with his short legs and gave Jiang Man a loud kiss on the face, "Mom, I'll tell you again, Uncle asked you to call him, he said he missed you."
"Well..." Jiang Man's cheeks flushed, "Children should stay out of the adult's business."
Xuanxuan stuck out his tongue mischievously. What a troublesome little guy.
Jiang Man was sitting on the bus and took out his cell phone. A text message appeared on the screen. It was sent by Su Heng in the early morning. It was two short and warm words: Good night.
Her heart warmed, and she immediately called him.
The phone rang only twice before Su Heng picked up. "Did you oversleep again?"
"No way." Jiang Man defended, "I just slept a little late last night."
"Hmm?" Su Heng responded meaningfully, "I heard you didn't go home last night."
Hearing this, Jiang Man coughed twice and pretended to be calm, "Who said that?"
"Xuanxuan."
"Don't take children's words seriously." She said casually.
"Don't you know that children are pure and innocent angels? They never lie." Through the phone, Jiang Man seemed to feel the smile in his voice.
"I won't lie." Jiang Man had to admit.
"So you didn't come home all night?"
Jiang Man was speechless. "I had some personal matters yesterday, so I came back a little late." She admitted her mistake in a low voice.
"What private matter?"
"It's just a private matter." Jiang Man bit her lip. She couldn't honestly say that she and Chen Hao went to the bar to party.
"I'm not at home for a day, and you dare to go to the bar and indulge yourself?" Jiang Man seemed to be able to feel a chill through the phone.
"How do you know?" Jiang Man blinked, full of confusion.
"You forgot, your phone has its location turned on."
Hearing this, Jiang Man suddenly realized, "Oh, that's right."
"So, what did you do at the bar?" Jiang Man's mind flashed with Su Heng's forced smile. She touched her nose and said, "It was just a party with friends. They dragged me along." She lied without changing her expression.
"Oh?"
Jiang Man was afraid that Su Heng would not believe her, so she quickly emphasized, "Really? But when will you come back?" She changed the subject, obviously not wanting to continue dwelling on this issue.
"Very soon." Su Heng replied, "Miss me that much?"
Jiang Man turned his head away, deliberately hiding his shyness, "No."
"Really?" A teasing voice came from the other side.
"A little bit." Jiang Man's mouth curled up slightly.
