“I don’t care!” Mother Lin shouted, looking like a shrew. “I didn’t call you!”
“The owner of the house pays the fee… Which one of you is it?”
Wu Man took out her phone and flipped to the relevant regulations of the housekeeping company. After reading it, she saw that Mother Lin’s expression became more interesting, “This regulation has gone through the formal procedures.”
Mother Lin’s expression became very ugly. Father Lin and Lin Yuxuan did not even look at her and went straight to their rooms. They directly spent almost a thousand yuan. How could she bear to do that? Wu Man completely brushed herself off because the house was under Lin Ziqian’s name. It had nothing to do with her!
If the cleaner could not get the money and the household management company behind them wanted to cause a ruckus, the Lin family would suffer the loss. Mother Lin reluctantly took out her phone to pay. The cleaner had just left when she slammed the door shut.
Wu Man watched her actions expressionlessly. The vibration of the door caused dust to fly from the cracked door frame, and even the ground beneath her feet seemed to shake violently.
Mother Lin covered her heart in pain. She was so angry that her chest kept heaving up and down, but there was nothing she could do. She had wanted to give Wu Man a show of strength. When she came back and saw that she was still cleaning, she could take this opportunity to mock her. She did not expect that she would lift a stone and smash her own foot. A thousand yuan was thrown out like water without a sound. At this point, she could not even be bothered to pick a fight with Wu Man. She hid in her room and felt sorry for the money she had paid.
Wu Man had seen enough of this farce. She gave a cold smile and returned to her room.
At night, Lin Ziqian, who had just returned from work, heard about this. Without saying a word, he closed the door and blamed Wu Man. “What do you mean? That’s my mother! Look at how angry she is!” Lin Ziqian placed his hands on his hips as he paced back and forth in front of Wu Man. “You even hired a domestic worker? Who told you to do that?”
Wu Man sat by the bed with her head half-lowered. She lowered her eyes and did not reply. Seeing her passive resistance, Lin Ziqian was even angrier. He swept the plastic vase on the table onto the floor, and he used this to vent his dissatisfaction. “I can’t control you anymore, right? Are your hands inlaid with gold and silver so you can’t do any housework? You can’t even do the things you should do. Aren’t you ashamed?”
“You made my mother so angry in front of outsiders. Don’t you have any guilt in your heart?” After Lin Ziqian reprimanded her, he looked at Wu Man, who was still silent. “Don’t say anything else. Go and apologize to my mother right now and think of a way to make up for this money!”
Wu Man was silent. She focused on swiping her phone to do her own thing and turned a blind eye to Lin Ziqian’s words. What did the Lin family have to do with her? Ever since Lin Ziqian started fooling around with Wang Jiaojiao and trying to figure out how to murder her, she had already forgotten about this family.
“How unreasonable.” Lin Ziqian squeezed out these words from between his teeth. He looked at Wu Man critically. Thinking back to the past few days, he felt more and more that the current Wu Man was not even comparable to Wang Jiaojiao’s fingers.
She was originally a civil servant, but she could not even get a job because of Wang Jiaojiao. She had to swallow her anger and go on a trip alone. No matter how far she ran, she would come back. Wu Man was now a plaything that he could play with Wang Jiaojiao. He could make her desperate with a flick of his finger, but she could only rely on him.
Lin Ziqian’s lips curled into a smile. “It’s okay if you don’t apologize. My uncle said that he misses you very much.. How about you accompany him tonight?”
