Chapter 233
At noon, Li Man found a decent-looking restaurant near the hospital with upscale decor and ambiance.
She reserved a private room.
Zhang Yan held Xinyu's hand and sat next to her, while Li Man sat on the other side of Xinyu, and Huo Jian Sheng sat next to Li Man.
After they were seated, Zhang Yan handed the menu to Xinyu, her face creasing with a smile. "Xinyu, order whatever you want, Grandma has money."
"Thank you, Grandma!"
Xinyu took the menu and expressed her gratitude.
The more Zhang Yan looked at Xinyu, the more she liked her. "You're such a polite child."
"My mom taught me."
Xinyu replied, looking at the menu.
Zhang Yan, for once, didn't glare at Li Man and instead gave her an appreciative look.
Li Man forced a smile and passed the menu to Huo Jian Sheng. "Huo Jian Sheng, don't hesitate to order whatever you want, don't be polite with me."
"Yes, Mr. Huo, feel free to order whatever you like, don't be polite with Auntie. Auntie is treating you all today!" Zhang Yan quickly added, addressing Huo Jian Sheng.
Huo Jian Sheng scratched his head, feeling embarrassed. "How can I let the elders pay when eating with them?"
In any case, he couldn't bring himself to do it.
Li Man didn't know how to respond to him, so she helplessly said, "Then it's my treat. You're the guest, I can't let you pay."
Hearing Li Man say this, Huo Jian Sheng reluctantly gave up on paying the bill.
After Li Man paid the bill, she returned to the private room with Huo Jian Sheng.
When they finished their meal and Zhang Yan went to pay the bill, she realized that it had already been settled.
Zhang Yan glanced at Li Man, displeased, and said, "Duoduo has grown up so much, and this is the first time I've taken her out to eat. Can't I treat her?"
Li Man quickly appeased, "Okay, okay, next time I'll let you treat her. Is that alright?"
Zhang Yan gave Li Man another glance and took Duoduo's hand, saying, "Come on, Grandma will take you to the mall to buy clothes."
Xinyu hurriedly said, "No need, Grandma. I have plenty of clothes. You don't have to buy them for me."
"No, what's yours is mine, and Grandma buying them is Grandma's intention."
Without further discussion, Zhang Yan insisted on taking Xinyu to buy clothes.
