Chapter 17: Killing a Person's Heart, That's All T

r boss, sighing at the favoritism Heaven showed him.A man at the age of 33 is truly a year worth savoring, every aspect exudes the charm of a mature man. Women would line up from east to west city jus...Wen Man returned to the restaurant, right as she was about to go on stage.

Jiang Rui didn't argue with her and waited until Wen Man got off work before finding another place to negotiate.

Jiang Sheng was obedient and well-behaved, so Wen Man agreed to teach her.

Jiang Rui's tuition was quite expensive, and Wen Man had already paid for two months in advance, so she had a little more money on hand.

She understood in her heart that Jiang Rui was helping her in a different way. If it were before, Wen Man might have refused, but now she couldn't afford to care about pride.

When I got home from work, Aunt Ruan wasn't there.

Wen Man made a phone call, Aunt Ruan said she would be back in a while.

About half an hour later, Aunt Ruan returned. Wen Man was just about to serve her a late-night snack when she saw that half of Aunt Ruan's arm was swollen.

"What's wrong with your arm" Wen Man helped Aunt Ruan sit down.

Auntie Ruan said nonchalantly, "Old people are useless. Doing something simple even made my hands swell."

Wen Man's heart skipped a beat.

She immediately looked at Aunt Ruan's palm.

Only to see, what was once meticulously cared for palm, now had several blisters, each shining brightly.

Wen Man stared blankly.

After a long while, tears fell one by one, she wiped them away frantically but couldn't hold back her emotions... She applied medicine to Aunt Ruan's wound and then went back to her room to get 10,000 yuan for Aunt Ruan's household expenses.

She refused to let Aunt Ruan go out and work again.

At night, Wen Man cried for a long time.

She woke up with obvious dark circles under her eyes, no matter how much concealer she used.

When having breakfast, Aunt Ruan instructed her: "If your body can't take it, do one less thing. If it really doesn't work, I'll sell that small apartment too."

Wen Man comforted her: “It will be alright after a while, Aunt Ruan, I’ll take care of it.”

Auntie Ruan didn't say anything more!

Wen Man finished eating and tidied up her bag before going to work at the music center.

Just as she finished clocking in, a colleague whispered to her, “Miss Huo is looking for you! If you don’t want to see her, just say you're taking a leave of absence.”

Wen Man was startled, and then she saw Huo Mingzhu.

Wen Man doesn't hate Huo Mingzhu, but she also doesn't want to associate with her. She can only trouble her colleagues.

But Huo Mingzhu saw her.

Huo Mingzhu walked over gracefully, her expression tinged with a playful coquettishness: "Wen Man, I want to know why you refused to play the piano for my birthday banquet Don't you like me"

She finished speaking, and silence fell over the surroundings.

All the colleagues at the music center know about Wen Man and Gu Changqing's story.

At this moment, it was even more cruel for Wen Man to know that Gu Changqing's fiancée still liked her.

Those eyes of pity and sympathy made Wen Man incredibly uncomfortable.

She whispered to Huo Mingzhu: "I had something else to do that day, Miss Huo. I'm sorry, you should find someone else."

Huo Mingzhu refused to give up.

Wen Man went to work and drank coffee outside until she finished her work at noon. Then, she waited for Wen Man to get off work and blocked her.

"Wen Man, how about we have a coffee together" Huo Mingzhu persisted.

Wen Man had a good temper, but facing Huo Mingzhu she couldn't calm down at all. She walked straight to a simple restaurant where they usually ate.

Huo Mingzhu, dressed in designer clothes and high heels, kept close to Wen Man's side and said with an irritating tone: "You can't attend my birthday banquet, but you can at least help me brainstorm wedding dress ideas, right Jiang Rui said you have good taste, Wen Man, show me what you think... Gu Changqing will be here later for dinner, and we want your opinion on our outfits, okay"

Wen Man's face was drained of all color.

She was betrayed by Gu Changqing, her father is going to jail, and she was forced by Gu Changqing to become a concubine.

But Huo Mingzhu didn't know anything about this, she was still demanding to be loved like everyone else.

To kill someone with such cruelty, that's alltween former lovers was naturally different from others, but Lu Qian immediately checked her out.Lan Zi Mei has three years of overseas work experience after graduation.Although he hadn't figured out...
