Revenge of the Wife

Chapter 227

"It's me."

Li Man said with a determined voice.

Huang De Han was stunned for two seconds before reacting and cursed, "Are you crazy? Why are you calling me? Get lost!"

Without waiting for Li Man to speak, Huang De Han hung up the phone immediately.

Li Man held the receiver, and tears welled up in her eyes once again.

With Huang De Han's attitude like this, even if she pleaded with him, he would never agree.

What should she do?

Earlier, she had exaggerated her words to reassure her father.

But if she didn't say it that way, how could her father be reassured?

She didn't want her father to leave without peace of mind.

Suddenly, her mobile phone rang.

The nurse beside her looked at Li Man in confusion. Didn't she say her phone was out of battery?

How could a dead phone still ring?

Seeing the nurse looking at her, Li Man awkwardly put down the landline receiver, thanked the nurse, and quickly walked out of the nurse station.

Glancing at the caller ID, it was Huo Jian Sheng calling. Li Man hurriedly answered.

"I heard you went home. How is your father?" Huo Jian Sheng had just been to the night market and learned that Li Man had returned home.

For some reason, when Li Man heard Huo Jian Sheng's voice, she felt like crying, but she had promised him not to cry in front of him.

She sniffled and, forcing back her tears, hoarsely said, "My father... "

Her throat felt like a boulder was lodged in it, choking her.

"Are you crying?" Huo Jian Sheng asked concernedly, "Is your father's condition not good? Do you want me to come over?"

Li Man had intended to say no, but suddenly she thought of her daughter. Since Huang De Han refused to come, it would be good to bring her daughter to see her father for the last time.

Her parents hadn't even seen their granddaughter yet.

Just as she was about to ask Huo Jian Sheng to help bring her daughter over, she suddenly remembered that Huo Jian Sheng had never met her daughter, and her daughter wouldn't go with this stranger.

Finally, Li Man said, "No need, thank you!"

Upon hearing Li Man's refusal, Huo Jian Sheng inexplicably felt displeased and said unhappily, "Li Man, don't you consider me a friend?"

"No, I'm afraid of troubling you..." Li Man quickly replied.

"I'm not afraid of trouble. What are you afraid of?" Huo Jian Sheng said with annoyance, "In the future, let me know if you need anything. Don't shoulder everything alone."

Although Huo Jian Sheng's voice was loud, his words were heartwarming.

Li Man couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears, crying while saying, "My father is in critical condition. I wanted to call Huang De Han and ask him to bring our daughter to see my father one last time, but he hung up on me just now. I told my father that he would come tomorrow... I don't know what to do now... I don't want my father to worry about me even after he's gone... I feel so miserable..."

Li Man cried incoherently.

The other end of the phone fell silent, and after a while, he asked, "Have your parents never seen your daughter?"

"No," Li Man sobbed.

After another moment of silence, the voice on the phone said, "I'll bring your daughter over now. Wait for me."

Upon hearing those words, Li Man's sobbing caught in her throat, and she asked in disbelief, "What did you just say?"

"In any case, just wait, even if the sky falls, I'll be there to support you. Don't cry, I can't stand to see you cry!"

For some reason, Huo Jian Sheng felt uncomfortable when he saw Li Man cry. She was truly his weakness.

The first time he saw Li Man, she was crying pitifully. Even though he was someone who usually minded his own business, he inexplicably walked over and supported her as she was about to fall.
