Revenge of the Wife

Chapter 355

Seeing Huo Jian Sheng wearing an apron, there was surprisingly no sense of incongruity. Handsome people look good in anything.

Li Man couldn't help but laugh, and Zhang Yan frowned and said, "What are you laughing at? Hurry up and go out, don't get in the way here."

Li Man: "..."

Okay, now she's finding fault with her.

Li Man returned to the living room and saw Huang Duo Duo slouching on the sofa watching TV.

She asked, "Did you read a book today?"

"I did!" Huang Duo Duo replied impatiently.

Huang Duo Duo's attitude was really irritating. Li Man took a deep breath and silently repeated in her mind, "She's my biological daughter, my own flesh and blood." Only then did she suppress the anger welling up inside her.

She tried to keep her tone calm, "Although you're not going to school now, you still need to remember to read every day. Don't just watch TV all day long, or you won't be able to keep up with others..."

"Mom, you're so naggy!" Huang Duo Duo couldn't help but interrupt Li Man's lecture and said, "Other people's grandmas are not like you, always telling me to study. I'm just watching TV, why do you have so much to say? I can't read books all day long, can I? I need some time to relax."

Li Man: "..."

She only said one sentence and was completely shut down by her daughter.

When Huang Duo Duo used to live at school and only came home on weekends, Li Man didn't really restrict her too much because they didn't spend much time together. On weekends, she let her relax and play as she pleased.

But now that they live together all the time, it's inevitable that Li Man would urge her to study every day, and clashes like this happen every day.

Helplessly, she said, "Finish your meal and then read for a while."

Huang Duo Duo pouted and reluctantly said, "Fine, I know!"

Li Man decided to stop there and not say anything more.

Huo Jian Sheng and Zhang Yan were busy in the kitchen, one washing and the other cutting, cooperating seamlessly.

Zhang Yan genuinely liked Huo Jian Sheng. He appeared mature, stable, treated people kindly, and was courteous without being overly macho.

Most importantly, she could see that Huo Jian Sheng treated Li Man well.

His affection for Li Man wasn't shown through mere words but through his actions.

For example, when Li Man was stabbed and hospitalized, he stayed with her at the hospital. Worried that Li Man wouldn't eat well, he woke up early every morning to go to the market to buy fresh vegetables and cooked for her.

This aspect of him made Zhang Yan very satisfied.

Her favorable impression of Huo Jian Sheng kept rising.

Unlike Huang De Han, who only knew how to talk, "Uncle and Auntie, don't worry, I will treat Li Man well."

You might treat Li Man well, but you said you don't have money for the dowry. You might treat Li Man well, but you can't give her a wedding. You might treat her well, but you make her steal her household registration book and register with you without prior approval.

Any man who truly loves you wouldn't do such things.

However, the naive and foolish Li Man defended Huang De Han, saying, "He doesn't have money, and I don't want to make things difficult for him. I love him for who he is, not his money. I'm willing to work hard together with him. I believe that as long as the two of us work together, we can overcome anything."

Sigh, what a foolish woman.

With Huo Jian Sheng assisting Zhang Yan, the meal was quickly prepared.

Huang Duo Duo didn't like Huo Jian Sheng. When she saw him, she wouldn't greet him proactively. Every time, Li Man had to remind her before she reluctantly called out to him.

Seeing the intimate exchanges between Huo Jian Sheng and Li Man, she became furious. She casually took a few bites of her food and said, "I'm full, I don't want to eat anymore."
