Chapter 356: Vignettes
Chapter 356
She thought her mother was so mean. How could she treat her father like that?
Her father was really pitiful.
Back in her room, Huang Duo Duo couldn't help but call Huang De Han.
But his phone was switched off.
...
Zhang Yan felt a little awkward and said to Huo Jian Sheng, "Let's eat, let's eat. Kids don't understand things. Don't blame her."
Huo Jian Sheng shrugged indifferently and said, "Auntie, you should eat too. I didn't blame her."
Huo Jian Sheng had eaten with them at home before, but Huang Duo Duo had never reacted so strongly.
Li Man didn't know why her daughter was acting this way. She was wondering if she had upset her by asking her to study earlier.
It seemed like they shouldn't let Huo Jian Sheng have dinner at home next time, so that everyone would be happy.
She gave Huo Jian Sheng an apologetic look and said, "I'm sorry."
Huo Jian Sheng gave her a comforting look and then picked up a piece of ribs and put it in her bowl, saying, "It's okay, eat up."
Because of this small incident, the meal was not very enjoyable.
After finishing the meal, Li Man and Zhang Yan cleaned up the dishes together.
They had a dishwasher in the house, so Zhang Yan asked Li Man to accompany Huo Jian Sheng while she cleaned the kitchen herself.
Back in the living room, Li Man said, "I'm full. Let's go out for a walk?"
Huo Jian Sheng also didn't want to stay at home and got up, saying, "Okay."
Li Man put on her down jacket and wrapped a scarf around her neck in the entranceway.
Huo Jian Sheng also picked up his cashmere coat hanging in the entranceway and put it on.
As they left, Li Man took the trash from home and threw it away.
Li Man and Huo Jian Sheng walked side by side at a leisurely pace.
The snow had stopped, but there was a thick layer of snow on the ground.
They walked on the snowy ground, their footsteps making a crunching sound from time to time, leaving behind deep and shallow footprints.
After walking in silence for a while, Li Man couldn't help but say, "I'm sorry about earlier. My daughter has a bad temper."
Huo Jian Sheng looked at Li Man and reassured her, "You've already apologized earlier, and I really didn't take it to heart. Kids throw tantrums, it's nothing. Don't think too much about it."
Li Man stopped and met his gaze, saying, "Huo Jian Sheng, when you're with me, have you ever thought that at my age, I may not be able to have children again, and you don't have children yet..."
Li Man paused for a moment, her meaning was clear, that she might not be able to have children again, and she wanted him to think carefully about their relationship.
After all, finding a woman who has been married before is different from finding a young woman. A young woman can give him children, but she might not be able to have children anymore.
Huo Jian Sheng looked into Li Man's eyes and asked, "What do you mean? Is it because your daughter doesn't accept me, you don't want to be with me?"
"Li Man widened her eyes, thinking that she had already expressed herself clearly. Why did Huo Jian Sheng bring up their daughter? However, if Huang Duo Duo refused to accept Huo Jian Sheng, she wouldn't be with him. After all, she had to consider her daughter's feelings.
This was the biggest challenge for a divorced woman when remarrying.
But what Li Man was asking now wasn't about that issue. She said, 'If my daughter doesn't agree, I indeed won't easily be with you. But what I want to ask now is...'"
