Humiliated by my mother-in-law, I married into a wealthy family with my son four years later

Chapter 244 Stayed all night

The weather was a little chilly. Jiang Man was sitting on the bus when she felt a vibration in her bag. She took out her cell phone and saw that it was Su Heng calling. There were more than a dozen missed calls.

Only then did she remember that she had turned her phone to silent mode during the parent-teacher meeting and had never changed it back.

She picked up the phone, but before she could speak, a slightly low voice came from the other end: "Where is it?"

"I'm on my way home, taking the bus." She answered truthfully.

"Have you seen Pu Jing?"

"Yes," she replied. "When he went, the parent-teacher conference was already over, but at least he went, so he wasn't too disappointed."

He listened and said "hmm" nonchalantly.

"What's the matter with you calling me?"

"I'll be back late tonight, so you don't have to wait for me for dinner. Also, Xuanxuan is at home right now. I just talked to him on the phone."

"I see. You have a bad stomach. Remember to eat dinner on time."

"Yeah." His attitude finally softened and his voice became much gentler.

Jiang Man was about to hang up when he heard a female voice, "Heng, we're waiting for you, come over quickly!"

The call was then disconnected.

Jiang Man was a little confused holding the phone. What was this voice?

Su Heng's so-called late return turned out to be a complete absence of all night.

Jiang Man lay on the bed with his eyes wide open, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

She began to wonder what their current relationship was like. Living together? Married in name only? Or perhaps just a source of comfort in times of loneliness?

Xuanxuan's cheerful singing came from outside the house. Jiang Man smiled gently. No matter how difficult the period was, her son was always the only comfort in her heart.

She dispelled all the negative emotions, cheered herself up, got up and prepared breakfast for the little one.

As soon as she got up, she felt a little dizzy and her body was weak. She shook her head and forced herself to get up.

After sending his son to kindergarten, Jiang Man finally couldn't hold on any longer and called the company to ask for leave. When he returned home, he curled up in bed, feeling cold all over.

There was a sound outside the door, and for some reason, she closed her eyes tightly.

Someone pushed the door open gently and came in. Seeing the person sleeping soundly on the bed, he paused.

But soon, he walked over and called out in a low voice: "Manman?"

Jiang Man didn't respond. He curled up in the quilt and opened his eyes blankly.

"Manman?" Su Heng vaguely sensed something was wrong and was about to lift the quilt when the phone rang again.

Afraid of waking her up, he immediately picked up the phone, "Hello, I'm home," he said as he walked out.

The door closed again.

After that, he did not come in again until he heard the sound of the door closing.

The person in the quilt still didn't move, but the temperature around her seemed to have dropped a few degrees. She was so cold that she could only hug herself tightly, as she had only herself to rely on.

I don’t know how long I slept like this, but Jiang Man was awakened by the phone ringing one after another.

She touched the phone and put it directly to her ear: "Hello"

"Jiang Man, you skipped work!"

It was Chen Hao's voice.

Jiang Man reluctantly responded, "I heard you were going on a long journey today. You should be at the airport now, right?"

"Haha, you're so concerned about my schedule?" Chen Hao said jokingly as always. After two seconds of silence, he asked, "Why didn't you come to the company?"

"I feel a little unwell," she told the truth.

She may not have noticed how weak her voice sounded at this moment.

After another brief silence, the other party asked, "Where is my brother?" It was not difficult to hear that his tone was a little stiff, but Jiang Man didn't notice it at all at this moment.

"He's probably busy."

As soon as she said this, she suddenly realized that her tone was like that of a complaining woman.

With a self-deprecating smile, she said, "I'm fine, I just need to rest for a while. No more words, I'm hanging up." After hanging up the phone, Jiang Man turned off the phone casually and then curled up in the quilt. Even though she admitted to being lonely, she was willing to isolate herself from the world.

When I woke up again, someone was shaking me hard.

She opened her eyes hazily and took great effort to recognize the person in front of her, "Chen Hao?"

Chen Hao glared at her and said angrily, "Are you crazy? You're so seriously ill and you refuse to go to the hospital?"

"I'm sick?" Jiang Man felt a little aggrieved. She didn't realize that she was sick at all!

She thought she was just in a bad mood and made an excuse to get some sleep at home. The dizziness and fever were just coincidences.

Seeing that she still didn't understand the situation, Chen Hao glared at her fiercely, then immediately found a coat and put it on her, "Come with me to the hospital!"

"I do not want to go."

"Jiang Man! Just try it if you dare to say 'no'!"

Chen Hao seemed to be ruthless and treated her with such a bad attitude. It seemed that this was the first time

Jiang Man was dazed and exhausted, and really didn't have the energy to argue with him. So, in this confused state, he was helped by Chen Hao to the emergency room of the hospital.

"A high fever of 39.5 degrees!" the doctor scolded rudely, "What's wrong with you, husband? Your wife has such a high fever, and you only brought her to the hospital now?"

Faced with the doctor's rebuke, Chen Hao remained silent, just nodding his head from time to time to admit his mistakes.

Jiang Man was in a daze and naturally couldn't hear what they were saying. She only remembered that she had many dreams.

After the injection and infusion, his body temperature dropped little by little, and he gradually became more stable while lying on the hospital bed.

When I woke up again, it was already late at night.

Jiang Man looked around blankly at first, then turned his gaze to the opposite side. Chen Hao was asleep in a chair next to the bed, and his high-end suit had become wrinkled.

After looking at him for a while, Jiang Man's eyes suddenly became moist and he immediately turned away.

When Chen Hao woke up, the bed was empty.

He was startled, stood up suddenly, and pushed the door open to go out. Coincidentally, Jiang Man was standing at the door with breakfast. He bumped into him and was also stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly and raised the breakfast in his hand, "Are you hungry? It's freshly baked."

Chen Hao frowned at her, "Who told you to run around when you're still sick? If you want breakfast, you can tell me!"

Jiang Man chuckled: "How can I be so weak? You must be very tired since you left only after feeling much better? Come over and have breakfast!"

Chen Hao looked at her, sighed, took the things from her hand, and looked at her helplessly, "Let me do it. After all, I am willing to serve you like this!"

Jiang Man was amused. She sat aside and watched him busy, smiling like a flower. She asked, "How did you know I was sick?"

Chen Hao handed her the chopsticks and said lightly, "I not only know that you are not feeling well physically, I also know that you are not feeling well mentally."

Jiang Man was stunned, lowered his head silently, and took the chopsticks.
