"There is one thing I don't understand." Huo Wei asked curiously: "With the current asset status of the Su Group, even with the burden of Su Yuan, the funds should not be so tight. Why is Su Shiyuan so embarrassed? I don’t want any more, and you actually want to use such means as tarnishing his wife’s reputation to lure you into approaching me?”

The smile on Lu Manzhen's face was a little stiff, and she said with a slight complaint: "You child, what are you thinking about? The situation of the group is good."

"Then why did you come here to pester me?" Huo Wei nodded to Fang Yuan who helped him buy lunch while talking.

Lu Manzhen showed an angry and funny look on his face, and said, "Can't I just look at my son?"

Huo Wei sneered.

Fang Yuan glanced at Lu Manzhen, and put the plate in front of Huo Wei: "Today we have roasted taro and spicy chicken, these are the most famous signature dishes in our cafeteria. I managed to get them."

"Don't go, just sit here." Huo Wei said.

"Is this okay?" When Fang Yuan sat down, he looked at Lu Manzhen with some unease.Looking for something to say, he asked, "Why did you remember to deliver food to Huo Wei today?"

Before Lu Manzhen could speak, Huo Wei said with a smile, "Of course it was the order of Chairman Su."

When Huo Wei said this, he seemed to think of something. He turned his head to look at Su Zhuo who had a complicated expression, and Luo Yao who glared at Lu Manzhen and the others, and asked calmly, "Do you believe me this time?"

Hearing Huo Wei's question, Su Zhuo's face became paler.He glanced at Lu Manzhen with an aggrieved expression.After thinking about it, he didn't say anything.

Luo Yao and his little friends couldn't help it anymore: "Don't be complacent. This only shows that this woman is really a bad woman with an eye for money. She is not sincere to you."

"Did you hear that?" Huo Wei looked at Lu Manzhen with a smile like a spring breeze: "How can I not be clear about things that even this group of dumb people know?"

Lu Manzhen's face flushed red.Huo Wei's understated words brought her a stronger sense of humiliation than pointing at her nose and scolding her.

Fang Yuan watched coldly, and couldn't help shaking his head.He really didn't know what Lu Manzhen was trying to do. A well-behaved rich man's mother was wrong, and he made himself like this.

Luo Yao and the others looked at Huo Wei angrily, "Why do you say that we are not smart enough?" He still thought he was quite smart.At least see through the true face of this woman.

Huo Wei is too lazy to talk to Luo Yao.

Luo Yao snorted coldly, and said to Su Zhuo: "Don't be sad. Even if that woman is not sincere to you, she dare not treat you badly. Uncle Su loves you so much, he married this woman just to let you She took care of you. If this woman dares to abuse you, Uncle Su will not let her go. "

Lu Man Zhenqi's eyelids twitched.She didn't expect Luo Yao to dare to sow discord in the public.Not only was it to sow discord, what Luo Yao said was simply to put her face under her feet.

If Lu Manzhen didn't fight back, then she wouldn't be Lu Manzhen.

"What nonsense are you talking about, kid?" Lu Manzhen became furious, and shouted loudly: "I see you guys often come to the hospital to accompany Su Zhuo, and I thought you had a pretty good personality. I didn't expect you to be so vicious at such a young age. I It’s not good for your stepson to come to deliver a meal to your own son? Which of your eyes saw that I was not good to Su Zhuo? Or did you open your eyes and talk nonsense, deliberately pouring dirty water on me? How did I offend you?”

Hearing Lu Manzhen's retort, the students and teachers who were eating in the cafeteria immediately put down their chopsticks and stretched their necks to look over.

Lu Manzhen continued: "You still have the nerve to ask me why I treat my own son badly? If everyone thinks like you, how dare I treat him well?"

After speaking, Lu Manzhen looked at Su Zhuo who was full of grievances.Thoughts raced.

Everyone knows it's hard to be a stepmother.Lu Manzhen, on the other hand, thinks that her stepmother is beyond reproach, at least more responsible than her own mother.But even with such heart and soul, it is still difficult to escape the malicious speculation of people like Luo Yao.Thinking of the cruel words these children said at Su's house last night, Lu Manzhen was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.

"Su Zhuo, tell yourself, how have I treated you all these years?" Lu Manzhen became furious, and asked Su Zhuo forcefully.

Su Zhuo didn't expect that Lu Manzhen would speak to him in such a tone, and was stunned.He looked at Lu Manzhen in astonishment for a long time before he came back to his senses: "Of course Aunt Lu is very kind to me."

It seems that in Lu Manzhen's eyes, it was Su Zhuo who hesitated for a long time and reluctantly said this sentence.

All of a sudden, Lu Manzhen felt that a basin of cold water poured down her head, directly cooling her down.

Sure enough, mutton can't stick to dog meat.She was so kind to Su Zhuo, she raised a frail and sick child into a healthy teenager.But at the critical moment, Su Zhuo still hesitated and listened to other people's instigation, thinking that her stepmother could not do well.

This is what makes people's hearts go from belly to belly!

Lu Manzhen bit her lip bitterly.She glanced at Huo Wei who was sitting across the dining table, and suddenly felt that her busy work these past few years was nothing but a joke.

Her biological son refused to recognize her, and her most trusted and admired husband regarded her as a pawn, even sacrificing her reputation for a little benefit.The stepson who takes good care of her will also question her sincerity under the instigation of others.

Not to mention that during the years she was in the Su family, the Su family looked down on her and the Bai family made things difficult for her.Even a nanny like Zhao Ma dared to sneer at her.

What did she bring to her as the wife of the chairman of the Su Group that she was so proud of?

Lu Manzhen took a deep breath.All of a sudden, her mind was full of thoughts.But she forcibly suppressed all these chaotic emotions in her heart, and she didn't show a single bit of it on her face.

"It's good that you know my heart." Lu Manzhen smiled at Su Zhuo, the smile was still as gentle as before.But her state of mind was very different.

"Huo Wei is my own son. As a mother, I didn't fulfill my responsibilities as a mother. After I divorced his father, I didn't take care of him for more than ten years. I feel ashamed." Lu Manzhen said, While getting up and walking to Su Zhuo's side, he hugged Su Zhuo's shoulder lovingly.

Everyone's attention in the cafeteria was attracted by her actions.

Su Zhuo also became the object of everyone's attention invisibly.He has always been intoxicated by such attention, becoming the focus of everyone.But this time, Su Zhuo felt faintly uneasy.

"You are my stepson. Although you are not my own, over the years, I dare say that my care for you is no worse than any mother's care for her son. Even if your biological mother is reborn, it may not Better than me." Lu Manzhen said this sentence sincerely.She has been married to Su Shiyuan for so many years, and she has been thinking about how to take good care of Su Shiyuan and Su Zhuo.Especially the stepson Su Zhuo.

But in Su Zhuo's ears, he was somewhat dissatisfied.In his heart, Bai Yueyin was special.He didn't want to compare any woman with his own mother.Even Lu Manzhen couldn't do it.

"You have been weak and sickly since you were a child, and the doctor said you would not live to be an adult. But neither my father nor I believed it. The two of us have been trying to find a way to cure your illness. For so many years, I have really held you in my hand for fear of falling You have a high fever in the middle of the night, and no one noticed it. It was I who suddenly woke up in the middle of the night, unable to sleep, and went to your room to cover you with a quilt, and only then did I realize that you were feverish."

"It was I who called the family doctor immediately, and I rubbed your body with white wine until your fever subsided. I took care of you overnight, and I had to go to work in the company the next morning. I don't worry about you. Take advantage of your lunch break I drove home in time, fed you porridge and medicine with my own hands, and saw that you fell asleep, so I hurried back to the company."

Because Su Zhuo was often sick when he was young, this kind of routine even became the norm for Lu Manzhen.She worked so hard, but what she got in exchange was not the gratitude of the Su family and the Bai family.The elders of the two families are still dissatisfied with Lu Manzhen.They felt that Lu Manzhen should resign from the company completely and become a full-time wife at home.Concentrate on taking care of Su Zhuo and be Su Zhuo's stepmother.

But the tragedy of Lu Manzhen's first half of her life was that she couldn't control her own life.After finally getting out of that quagmire, how could it be possible for Lu Manzhen to hand over her destiny to others again and live by watching other people's faces?Besides, Su Shiyuan also supported her to go out to work.

"I am not a qualified mother. But no one can say that I am not an excellent stepmother." Lu Manzhen looked directly at Luo Yao and his little friends.Until Luo Yao and the others uncomfortably avoided her sight.

Lu Manzhen said confidently: "Even if I compare stepmothers all over the world, I dare say that I have a clear conscience in everything I do."

Su Zhuo's face was uncomfortable for a moment.He looked up at Lu Manzhen, but he could only see Lu Manzhen's perfect jaw and her red lips opening and closing.

"If you want to say I owe you, the only thing I owe in this world is my own son." Lu Manzhen said this, and turned to Huo Bi again: "So I want to make up for him now. There is a problem with fulfilling the obligations and responsibilities of a mother. ?"

Huo Bi had no expression on his face.What Lu Manzhen said was high-sounding, but it's a pity that only she knows how much sincerity is in these words.

Luo Yao's expression could no longer be described as embarrassment.He looked at Lu Manzhen embarrassingly, feeling that he had lost face.

It seems that his question just now was deliberately sowing discord and tarnishing Lu Manzhen's reputation.

"I didn't mean that either." Luo Yao explained, seeing Lu Manzhen wishing to eat his eyes, reluctantly said: "We are just worried that you will treat Su Zhuo badly in the future."

"Just because of your worry, you can loudly question my sincerity in front of so many classmates? Accusing me of something that hasn't happened yet? Abusing me?"

Before Luo Yao could open his mouth, Lu Manzhen said again: "You did the same to Huo Bi, didn't you?"

Luo Yao immediately stopped talking.The other friends opened their mouths, and before they had time to defend themselves, they heard Lu Manzhen continue to say, "I knew that you all didn't like Huo Bi. I think that my stepmother took great pains to bring her own son back to the Su family. There must be some ulterior purpose."

Before everyone could react, Lu Manzhen admitted straightforwardly: "Indeed! I know that Huo Bi's bone marrow can match Su Zhuo's type. We brought him back to let him donate bone marrow to Su Zhuo."

There was an uproar in the whole cafeteria.Although everyone had guessed this for a long time, everyone was still shocked when they heard Lu Manzhen say it in person.

"In order to make my stepson recover healthily, I did not hesitate to trick my own son back home. I have already said that I am not a qualified mother. But what can I do?" Lu Manzhen smiled self-deprecatingly, she looked down at Su Zhuo, He said with all his heart, "At that time, Su Zhuo's condition relapsed, and the doctor said that he would not perform bone marrow transplantation. If his condition continued to deteriorate, it was very likely..."

Lu Manzhen didn't say what was going on.But anyone can guess.

Lu Manzhen took a deep breath: "One is my own son whom I haven't seen for more than ten years, and the other is my step-son who I brought up with my own hands, who I held in my arms, fed medicine and fed him, and coaxed him to sleep at night. What's in my heart The scales have already tipped."

So Lu Manzhen took Huo Wei back to the Su family.She wanted Su Zhuo's illness to recover, and she also wanted to provide her own son with a better living environment: "As a mother, is my idea wrong? Why do I seem to be a heinous sin in the eyes of all of you?"

His biological son thought she was indifferent and snobbish, and turned his back on her as a mother; his stepson felt that she had ulterior motives and doubted her sincerity.She tried her best to let her two sons get the benefits, but in the end she became Zhu Bajie who looked in the mirror—he was not a human being inside and out.
