When Lin Man said this, Pei Yan's face suddenly darkened.

"You slapped me in the face, but you're here to defend him." He sneered, "That's really good."

Lin Man looked at Pei Yan and wondered what he was thinking.

It was he who wanted a divorce, it was he who protected the sweetness, and now it is he who insists on getting entangled.

"Pei Yan, stop being stubborn. You just got used to my existence for a while. To you, I'm no different." Pei Yan did not appreciate her words that came from the bottom of her heart.

"Is that what you think?"

Lin Man was somewhat helpless. "Then what should I think? From the beginning, you agreed to this marriage because I am somewhat like Gan Yuxi, but I am not her... I am not as great as her, and I cannot become Gan Yuxi."

Lin Man smiled bitterly, "My heart is small. I just want to live a stable life with the person I love...have a few more children, and do some careers I like. I can't make any contribution like Gan Yuxi. Pei Yan, we were wrong from the beginning. It's not too late to correct it now..."

Pei Yan lit a cigarette and remained silent.

After a while, he chuckled, "After saying so much, you just want to leave, but you're afraid that I'll vent my anger on him. Do you care about him so much?"

Lin Man looked at Pei Yan without dodging his gaze.

She did care about Ji Ze. She owed Ji Ze a debt that she had never been able to repay. If Ji Ze got into trouble again because of her in this life, her conscience would probably hurt for the rest of her life.

Pei Yan stared at Lin Man for a long while and saw the determination in her eyes.

The hand blocking the door slowly slid down, "Get out, if you want to leave, I will never stop you again."

"Pei Yan, take care..."

-

After Lin Man left, Pei Yan looked outside through the floor-to-ceiling window.

The moonlight was high in the sky, stretching Lin Man's figure into a slender shape. The shadow walking side by side made Pei Yan feel a slight pain in his eyes.

Lin Man was staring at the night lights in the woods in a daze until she heard Ji Ze's voice and came back to her senses.

"What are you thinking about?"

Ji Ze looked up, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"Boss Ji, how come you arrived so timely today?"

Ji Ze smiled, "Of course there are people who don't want anything to happen between you and A Yan."

Lin Man suddenly had an idea, "Is it sweet?"

Ji Ze nodded, "After A Yan took you away, Gan Tian called me and said that you were struggling fiercely. When A Yan took you away, you kept shouting my name. You looked so pitiful. She was almost heartbroken when she saw you, and asked me to rescue you as soon as possible."

Lin Man got goosebumps when she heard those cheesy words. Where did she learn the words "sweet" from? She immediately wanted to clarify, "Mr. Ji, those..."

"I know you won't say those words."

Hearing Ji Ze's words, Lin Man nodded weakly, and then asked curiously, "Then what?"

"I didn't respond and hung up the phone."

As if seeing the doubt in Lin Man's eyes, Ji Ze chuckled, "Gan Tian is not like her sister at all. She does things in a despicable way and has no bottom line. I'm afraid she will record it and it will be bad for you."

Ji Ze paused.

As soon as he changed the subject, he placed his hands on Lin Man's shoulders and asked her to face him.

"Manman."

"Ok?"

"Be my girlfriend, okay?"

Lin Man was startled and unconsciously wanted to escape, but Ji Ze's hands were tightly bound and she could not move.

She forced a smile somewhat unnaturally, "Boss Ji, why are you suddenly talking about this? I and..."

"Manman, I don't want anyone to take you away in the future, so I can only resort to this last resort to get him to open the door. You also want to start a new life, right?

You and I both know Ah Yan's personality. He will not change his mind easily. Manman, he has fallen in love with you... can't you notice it? Or, you have seen his change, but you just want to escape. Are you afraid that he will turn back? "

Every word Ji Ze said touched Lin Man's heart.

She dodged her gaze and said, "Mr. Ji, your family won't agree..."

"How will you know if you don't try?"

Lin Man looked at Ji Ze's determined eyes and felt a little discouraged, because she had experienced all of this before...

No matter how she tells Ji Ze, nothing will change.

Ji Ze saw the hesitation in Lin Man's eyes, "Man Man, why not give it a try."

His voice was slow but firm, with an inspiring power.

"it is good."

Lin Man chuckled and put her hand into Ji Ze's palm.

Ji Ze was startled when he felt the softness in his palm. Under the dim starlight, he raised his hand and looked at Lin Man's shy and blushing face, his heart pounding.

She agreed…

Ji Ze tensed his arm muscles, pulled Lin Man into his arms and hugged her tightly. Finally... he could be with her.

Ji Ze hugged her very tightly, as if he was afraid that she would run away if he let go.

Lin Man was a little out of breath. She pushed Ji Ze away and ran into the corridor. Before leaving, she turned around and said unhappily, "Ji Ze, are you stupid? You can't even hug someone."

Ji Ze chuckled and stood beside the car in a light blue shirt, like a gentle senior.

"I'll pick you up from get off work tomorrow night, go to bed early."

After he finished speaking, he drove away without looking back. His smooth speed made Lin Man almost think that the person who had just held her tightly was not him.

-

Lin Man returned home and tossed and turned, unable to sleep, thinking about what happened that night.

She stretched out her hands and touched her hot face. She was actually with Ji Ze...

Does she like Ji Ze?

Lin Man stuck her head out of the window. She had once loved Pei Yan sincerely and passionately, so she knew very well that she just didn't hate Ji Ze.

But it is far from love. But when she is with Ji Ze, she won't have so much suspicion and jealousy. She will have a normal love and life. She won't worry about gains and losses and be a crazy person in love.

The next day.

Before Lin Man opened her eyes, Xiaojun received a series of life-threatening phone calls.

Lin Man closed her eyes and answered the phone in a daze. As soon as she put it to her ear, Xiaojun's loud shouting shook her brain.

"Manman! Check the news. Those damn unscrupulous reporters said that you secretly met with men, cheated on Mr. Pei, and cheated on him. Aren't you divorced?"

Lin Man rubbed his eyes, hummed, and turned on his cell phone.

She was hugged by Ji Ze and someone took a picture of her.

Ji Ze's face was not clear in the photo, but it was obvious that the woman was her and the man was not Pei Yan.

Before Lin Man could speak, her cell phone rang again.

"Xiaojun, I have a call. Hang up first. See you at the company later."

"Okay, you go and do your work first."

Lin Man answered Ji Ze's call, "Man Man, I have seen all the posts online. You don't have to do anything. Leave it to me and I will handle it."

"it is good."

Lin Man looked at the birds singing on the windowsill and chuckled, with a rare look of ease on her face. This way of getting along made her feel at ease. He would believe in her and help her, instead of her being alone and helpless like before.
