Chapter 448 Li Zheng Deliberately Humiliates Yang Manman

Yang Manman's already stiff face seemed to be frozen even more at this moment. It took a while before she managed to force out a smile. "That's not necessary. I don't have a good relationship with them, or..." "It's precisely because of the bad relationship that we should move around more and smooth things over. Besides, it's almost time for dinner now, so it's settled." Li Zheng said without allowing any room for argument, pulling the stiff Yang Manman towards the carriage. He specifically ordered the driver to speed up, and the carriage drove all the way to the west of the city and soon stopped outside the Zhanxing Tower. Looking at the Zhanxing Tower outside, thinking that Jiang Suining, Lu Yan and the others might be inside, Yang Manman couldn't take the step to get out of the car. "Li Zheng, I really don't want to go in. Can't we just go back like this?" Looking at Yang Manman's pleading eyes, Li Zheng hesitated for a moment, but it was only a moment, and then it was replaced by determination. "Manman, if you don't go in, it means you don't want them to know about our relationship. If that's the case, then I can only understand that you don't want to be with me at all, and what you said before was all lies." "I didn't!" Yang Manman hurriedly denied. Facing Li Zheng's gaze, she finally took a deep breath, gritted her teeth and got off the carriage. Before stepping into Zhanxing Tower, she kept praying in her heart that Jiang Suining and the others were not there, or that they had finished eating and left. However, the moment she stepped into Zhanxing Tower, all her expectations were shattered. At the entrance of the stairs on the first floor, several figures who were about to go upstairs were particularly conspicuous. They were Jiang Suining, Lu Yan, He Qingrui, and Wei Yao. Yang Manman stopped immediately, her heart pounding like thunder, just expecting them to hurry upstairs, but never look back, but the next moment, Li Zheng spoke. "Is it Miss Jiang?" In an instant, Yang Manman's whole body was struck by lightning, and her limbs were numb. At the stairs, Jiang Suining and the others turned around. When they saw Li Zheng and Yang Manman, Jiang Suining was a little surprised. After Lv Yan was surprised, she frowned. How did these two people get together again? "Mr. Li, Miss Yang, I didn't expect to see you here." Jiang Suining turned and walked down the stairs. Lv Yan followed behind. When He Qingrui saw the two of them, she immediately felt that there was something interesting to watch, so she pulled Wei Yao down as well. When Li Zheng's eyes swept over Lv Yan, he froze for a moment, but soon retracted his gaze and spoke with a smile. "We just went to Ningyue Pavilion. We heard that Miss Jiang is hosting a banquet in Zhanxing Tower today, so we came to join in the fun." "Join in the fun? Ha!" Lu Yan sneered and said unceremoniously, "If you two get together, I'm afraid there will be endless fun. Why bother to join in the fun of others?" Wei Yao didn't know about the past between Li Zheng, Yang Manman and Lu Yan. Hearing Lu Yan's unfriendly tone, she looked at He Qingrui with some doubts. The latter pulled her aside and explained the previous things in a low voice. Li Zheng was not angry because of this, but the smile on his face faded a little. He glanced at Yang Manman who was still stiff beside him and put his hand around her waist. "Let me introduce you. From now on, she is my concubine." Yang Manman trembled all over and subconsciously wanted to break free from Li Zheng's hand. However, when she met Li Zheng's eyes, all her movements stopped. Was Li Zheng deliberately testing her? If she broke free, Li Zheng would definitely not trust her anymore, and might even abandon her and leave immediately. No, she couldn't! The word "concubine" was like a boulder thrown into the middle of a lake, attracting everyone's attention. Even Yue Chan, who was standing in the corridor on the second floor, couldn't help but be surprised. She had been on the second floor, and she saw Li Zheng bringing Yang Manman in just now, but she never expected that Yang Manman would become Li Zheng's concubine. "Why, don't you guys want to congratulate?" Although Li Zheng was talking to Jiang Suining and the others, his eyes were fixed on Yang Manman. Jiang Suining was the first to come to his senses, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Congratulations." Lu Yan also pulled her thoughts back from her surprise, looked at the two of them, and sneered again. "I really don't know whether to say that you two are birds of a feather, or that you have an endless bad fate, but it's good, so as to avoid harming others." He Qingrui reacted the slowest, she looked at Yang Manman and Li Zheng in surprise, and after a long while, she spoke to Yang Manman. "Yang Manman, is this true? Are you really a mistress?" And it was Li Zheng, whom Yang Manman had looked down upon before! Yang Manman was so tense that she almost bit her teeth to pieces. The overwhelming sense of humiliation gushed out from her heart. She wanted to open Li Zheng's hand right now, and then loudly declare that she would never be a mistress for anyone, let alone Li Zheng, in order to save her face. It was just a pity that she really didn't have the courage now. After all, if she shook off Li Zheng's hand, she might be captured by the He family again. "Manman, they are asking you questions." Li Zheng reminded, his tone a little colder than before. "Yes." Yang Manman gritted her teeth and squeezed out a few words, "I am willing to be a mistress for Li Zheng!" Before she finished speaking, Yang Manman immediately saw He Qingrui's contemptuous and disgusted look. "You are really shameless." "He Qingrui, shut up, what does it have to do with you!" Yang Manman said angrily. "It has nothing to do with me, but Yang Manman, you are the daughter of the Duke's Mansion. Even if the Duke's Mansion is in decline now, what about the etiquette and morality you learned before? You have the nerve to be someone's concubine, and you don't let others say anything." He Qingrui was full of sneers. Lu Yan smiled and said, "Qingrui, you can't say that. Maybe Miss Yang is just so special. She didn't want to be someone's concubine before, but now she is eager to be someone's concubine. This preference is really puzzling." Whether it was Li Zheng or Yang Manman, although the previous things were over, since they were eager to get close to her, she didn't want to be polite. After all, she had been bullied by them before. "Don't go too far!" Yang Manman gritted her teeth and looked at them fiercely. The next moment, she turned her head and said to Li Zheng, "Li Zheng, you can't just watch them bully me!" "They bullied you?" Li Zheng looked puzzled, "Where did you get that from?" Yang Manman was stunned, "Didn't you hear what they said to humiliate me just now!" "I heard it." Li Zheng nodded, "But isn't what they said true?"
