Revenge of the Wife

Chapter 187

"I am good to you because I want to be, not because I expect anything in return. You don't need to give me anything back. All I want is for you to live a good life in the future," Huo Jian Sheng said.

Li Man was deeply touched. "Huo Jian Sheng, you're really kind!"

Huo Jian Sheng smiled, neither confirming nor denying it. Was he really good? He was just willing to treat her well, but he wasn't like that with others.

"What would you do if you had evidence that Huang De Han sold company secrets?" Huo Jian Sheng asked.

He was curious about what Li Man would do. Would she do as he expected?

"I would report it to the police," Li Man said.

Although it was expected, Huo Jian Sheng still asked, "Aren't you afraid it would affect the child?"

Li Man hesitated for a moment, but still said, "I can't let him get away with his wrongdoing just because I'm afraid it would affect the child. I don't want to claim any nobility for myself. I just want revenge and for him to receive the punishment he deserves!"

Huo Jian Sheng was pleased. If Li Man let Huang De Han go because she was afraid of the impact on the child, then he would truly look down on her.

If Li Man really did that, he wouldn't help her anymore because it would be her own fault. She couldn't blame others for hurting her.

You see, being lenient towards enemies is self-harm. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝓮𝓌𝑒𝒷𝘯ℴ𝑣𝓮𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"Gurgle~"

Suddenly, her stomach made an unpleasant sound. Li Man covered her stomach, embarrassed, and smiled.

"Are you hungry?" Huo Jian Sheng seemed to have thought of something and asked, "You haven't even had breakfast, have you?"

Li Man smiled apologetically, "Um."

Huo Jian Sheng stood up, brushed off the sand from his pants, and said, "Come on, let me treat you to a meal."

Li Man quickly stood up, "No, it should be me treating you."

Huo Jian Sheng glanced at her, his smile ambiguous. "Whatever you say!"

Li Man brushed off the sand from her skirt, and the two of them walked side by side towards the car.

The wind blew Li Man's long hair, and strands of it brushed against Huo Jian Sheng's cheek, carrying the fragrance of shampoo, which smelled really good.

Just as Li Man got into the car, her phone suddenly rang.

She picked it up and saw that it was Gu Ya calling.

Li Man casually answered, "Hello, Gu Ya..."

"Li Man, please come quickly. Something happened to my husband. He's in the hospital now."

Li Man had only spoken half of her sentence when she heard Gu Ya's anxious voice.

"Which hospital? I'll come right away." Li Man quickly asked.

"At People's Hospital."

"Okay, wait for me. I'll be there soon."

After hanging up the phone, Li Man rolled down the car window and apologized to Huo Jian Sheng, "My friend Gu Ya has something urgent. I need to go there now. I'm sorry I can't have lunch with you."

Huo Jian Sheng frowned, "Why can't you finish your meal first before going? It's almost noon, and you haven't even had breakfast."

"I won't eat. Her husband is in the hospital, and from her voice, it sounds serious. I want to go see what's going on. I'm really sorry for today. I'll treat you another day."

Huo Jian Sheng waved his hand unhappily, gesturing for Li Man to leave quickly.

Li Man gave him an apologetic look and quickly drove to the People's Hospital.

Upon arriving at the hospital and parking the car, Li Man called Gu Ya to ask where she was.

"I'm here in the operating room. My husband hasn't come out yet," Gu Ya replied hoarsely.

Li Man entered the operating room and saw Gu Ya, with a big belly, standing at the door. There was also a handsome young man with her, probably around thirty years old. Li Man recognized him as Gu Ya's stepson, Tang Kai.
