Revenge of the Wife

Chapter 165

This meal, Huo Jian Sheng didn't rush to pay, it was Li Man who footed the bill, totaling over 600 yuan.

Li Man ate to her heart's content and genuinely felt that it was economical and practical. Isn't it better than eating a steak that costs 10,000 or 20,000 yuan?

"Are you full?" Li Man asked Huo Jian Sheng.

"More than full, I'm stuffed," Huo Jian Sheng replied, patting his belly.

"That's good. I'll treat you next time," Li Man said with a smile.

"Great!" Huo Jian Sheng didn't refuse, and he even felt a bit excited.

...

Chen XiaoHui also submitted her resignation letter.

She decided to set up a barbecue stall with Li Man.

Her salary was only 8,000 yuan per month, which seemed like a lot, but the rent in Shenzhen was high. For the two-bedroom apartment they rented, they had to pay 3,500 yuan per month. In addition to the water and electricity bills and property management fees, it came to about 4,000 yuan per month. If they split the cost with Li Man, it would be 2,000 yuan each. Plus living expenses and transportation costs, they would need over 2,000 yuan per month. Their daughter's pocket money was also around 1,000 yuan per month, not to mention buying clothes. If they could save 2,000 yuan per month, it would be considered good.

She had been married to Wang Junfeng for two years, and Wang Junfeng didn't let her spend her own money. Basically, she used Wang Junfeng's money during those two years, so she was able to save a bit, but not much, just around a hundred thousand.

A hundred thousand may seem like a lot, but the housing prices in Shenzhen were high. With just that hundred thousand, she couldn't even afford a down payment.

She was almost forty years old, and if she didn't do business and relied solely on her salary, she would never be able to afford a house in her lifetime.

That's why when Li Man mentioned wanting to do business, she agreed without hesitation.

She had no intention of getting married again in her life. After the incident with Wang Junfeng, she was also scared. So, she wanted to rely on her own efforts to buy a house.

...

An Xin also went back to school.

As she walked into the classroom, her classmates all looked at her with strange gazes.

An Xin hurriedly lowered her head and walked quickly to her seat.

Her head was lowered, trying to make herself less noticeable, but the discussions of her classmates still unabashedly entered her ears.

"I heard her dad was killed by her mom's friend."

"That's not her real dad, it's her stepdad."

"Really?"

"Yes!"

"Huh? I remember her dad was really good to her. He used to bring her to school almost every day. I even envied her. So, it turns out he's not her real dad?"

"No, I heard her stepdad wanted to do something to her, and then he was killed by her mom's friend."

"Huh? Is that true? Where did you hear that from?"

"I saw it on the news. Don't you guys watch the news?"

"No, what else did the news say?"

"Just that."

"Did they say if she was...you know, by her stepdad?"

"I don't think so..."

Suddenly, there was a loud "bang," and the discussions abruptly stopped.

An Xin was startled. She raised her teary eyes and saw her classmate Gu Heng slamming his fist on the desk, his handsome face full of anger. "Have you said enough? This is a classroom, not a market. If you want to talk, go outside!"

The classroom instantly became silent, as quiet as a pin drop. No one dared to speak again.

An Xin's tears rolled down her cheeks, and through the blur, she saw Gu Heng looking at her. She quickly lowered her head.

All day long, An Xin sat motionless in her seat.

No classmates came to talk to her, and she felt as if she were invisible, sitting there alone.

Finally, when it was time to leave school, all her classmates had already left, and only then did An Xin get up from her seat.

As soon as she walked out of the classroom, she saw Gu Heng leaning against the railing in the corridor.

Their eyes met, and An Xin hurriedly lowered her head, walking quickly towards the staircase.
