Chapter 63
Li Man didn't expect Huang De Han's attitude to change so quickly, but she still refused, saying, "I'm sorry, I don't have time to help you with anything. Goodbye!"
She was about to hang up the phone.
"Wait, wait..." Huang De Han hurriedly called out.
Li Man paused for a moment and impatiently said, "I really don't have time to help you!"
"Please," Huang De Han pleaded in a soft voice, "I'm with a client at the hotel, and I really can't leave. Can you please help me?"
"I won't help! What's in it for me if I help you?" Li Man scoffed.
"This," Huang De Han thought for a moment and said, "If you help me deliver the documents, I'll transfer this month's living expenses to you."
Li Man chuckled and said, "No need, I have a salary now. I don't need your money!"
Huang De Han was infuriated by Li Man's indifference, but he held back and asked, "What do you want in order to help me?"
Li Man jokingly replied, "Unless you add my name to the property deed, otherwise forget it!"
Unaware that she narrowly escaped a disaster, Li Man hung up the phone and Chen XiaoHui asked her to look after An Xin while she went home to get some clean clothes.
Li Man readily agreed, saying, "Go ahead, I'll keep An Xin company."
After Chen XiaoHui left, Li Man deliberately tried to engage An Xin in conversation, trying to get information out of her.
However, An Xin showed little interest, casually responding to Li Man's questions without really paying attention.
On the other hand, Huang De Han was surprised to see Chen XiaoHui return, and Chen XiaoHui was also surprised to see Huang De Han cooking in the kitchen. She thought he would eat out.
She hurried into the kitchen and asked, "What are you cooking? Let me do it. Why aren't you eating outside? It would be more convenient."
Huang De Han smiled and pointed to the chicken in the sink. He said, "I bought a chicken. I thought of making chicken soup to nourish An Xin's body."
Chen XiaoHui was deeply moved by his words. With a husband like this, what more could a wife ask for?
Gratefully, she looked at her considerate husband and softly said, "Thank you, dear."
"Do we still need to say thank you between us? An Xin is also my daughter, so it's only natural to be good to her," Huang De Han replied.
