Chapter 223: Mom’s Calling



Chapter 223

Chen Xiaohui looked at Huang Duo Duo, unsure of how to answer the question, because she was reminded of Wang Jun Feng's actions towards An Xin.

Huang Duo Duo continued, "My dad has money, I can live a good life with him. What does my mom have? Do you expect me to set up a stall with her? It's so embarrassing!"

"I told my mom not to divorce my dad, but she insisted on divorcing him. Did she ever think about me?"

"She's so selfish, only thinking about herself. Why should I acknowledge her as my mother?"

"She only cares about herself, so why can't I think about myself?"

After finishing her words, Huang Duo Duo ignored Chen Xiaohui and walked away.

Chen Xiaohui stood still, unable to react for a long time.

Did those words really come from a child's mouth?

It's terrifying!

With a dejected look, Chen Xiaohui returned to the hospital room and recounted every word Huang Duo Duo had said to Li Man, not omitting a single detail.

After Li Man finished listening, she let out a long sigh and didn't say anything.

She secretly made up her mind to work hard and earn a lot of money.

The reason her daughter treated her this way was because she didn't have money.

Only now did Li Man realize the importance of money. Without money, even your loved ones would look down on you!

It's really a harsh reality!

...

Li Man stayed in the hospital for more than a week before being discharged.

But Chen Xiaohui didn't allow her to set up the stall yet and asked her to rest for a few more days at home.

Li Man helped with stringing skewers at home.

Chen Xiaohui hired a barbecue chef, and the two of them could handle the workload.

The chef's skills were excellent, and the business was better than before. They would often be busy until two in the morning before returning home.

After taking a shower at home, it was already around three o'clock.

The next day, they had to wake up early to buy groceries.

Although the barbecue business made money, it was hard-earned money.

After Li Man's injury healed completely, she discussed with Chen Xiaohui that they would take turns going out with the chef to set up the stall. The person staying at home would be responsible for buying groceries so that the other person could get some extra sleep and not be so tired.

Chen Xiaohui thought it was a good arrangement and readily agreed.

Days passed by quietly like this.

Although setting up the stall was tiring, Li Man was full of enthusiasm.

On this day, Li Man had just finished buying groceries and returned home when her phone suddenly rang.

She took out her phone and saw the caller ID, and her hand couldn't help but tremble.

This was a call she had wanted to make countless times but never had the courage to dial.

Looking at the name flashing on the screen, Li Man answered the phone with trembling hands, a call that hadn't been connected for nearly eleven years.

There was no sound on the other end of the line, as if waiting for the other person to speak.

Li Man opened her mouth, but her throat felt as if it were weighed down by a heavy boulder. After a while, she finally uttered, "Mom..."

Tears welled up in her eyes, no longer able to be restrained.

From the other end of the phone came uncontrollable sobbing.

"Mom... I'm sorry... Mom... I was wrong... I shouldn't have disobeyed you... I truly made a mistake..."

Li Man sobbed uncontrollably, continuously apologizing, as if that was the only way to seek forgiveness from the other person.

"...Wuwuwu... Manman, if Mom hadn't made this phone call for you, would you have never planned to call Mom for the rest of your life?"
