Xiao ShanJie quickly released his hand and put on a pleasing smile. "Sorry, I placed it in the wrong spot."
"Hmph!"
Huo Jian Sheng coldly snorted, "If you place it in the wrong spot again, I'll cut off your hand!"
Xiao ShanJie held his chest, looking frightened. "You're so fierce! You scared me!"
Huo Jian Sheng rolled his eyes and ignored him.
Li Man watched them in a daze. This... this...
She couldn't believe it!
Could it be that they... really are?
Li Man glanced at them again. ...It shouldn't be, right? Huo Jian Sheng denied it last time.
But such a handsome man, could Huo Jian Sheng really not be moved?
Li Man shook her head, feeling sorry for that handsome face.
Li Man multitasked, her hands busy as she finished grilling the skewers and handed them to An Xin.
An Xin quickly packed them up. "Thank you. It's 845 yuan in total, but since you're Aunt Li Man's friend, you can pay 800."
Just now, Chen XiaoHui quietly reminded her to collect 800 yuan.
"Thank you, little niece. You're so cute. Brother will come and visit you again tomorrow." Xiao ShanJie said affectionately as he took out his phone to scan the QR code.
"Alipay received 845 yuan." The machine reported the transaction.
"Brother, just scan 800 yuan." An Xin anxiously said, thinking that Xiao ShanJie didn't hear what she said earlier.
Huo Jian Sheng smiled and said, "He has money. Don't save him any. Also, you should call him Uncle. He's already 45 years old."
Xiao ShanJie's face immediately darkened, and he shouted, "Shut up, Huo Jian Sheng! Don't you know a man's age is a secret?"
"Let's go, Li Man. You can continue your work."
Huo Jian Sheng paid no attention to Xiao ShanJie's furiousness and casually said goodbye to Li Man before leaving with his hands in his pockets.
Xiao ShanJie followed closely beside Huo Jian Sheng, chattering nonstop.
Li Man shook her head with a smile and continued grilling her barbecue.
...
Upon receiving the court summons, Lu Feng finally learned that Tan Xi Yuan had filed for divorce.
Lu Feng never expected that Tan Xi Yuan had so much evidence of his infidelity, even including the company's financial reports. It was then that he realized he had underestimated Tan Xi Yuan.
Last month, they had a falling out, and he intentionally ignored her for over a month, thinking she had given in when he saw no response from her. But he never expected her to file a lawsuit.
He quickly drove back to the home he hadn't visited in over a month.
Seeing Lu Feng suddenly return, Tan Xi Yuan was surprised and taunted, "Oh, what a rare guest. Mr. Lu, why do you have time to come here? Don't you need to be with your little mistress?"
Lu Feng's face darkened as he walked over and sat on the sofa. "Stop joking, Xi Yuan. What do you want?"
Tan Xi Yuan was already over three months pregnant, but she wasn't showing yet, and with her loose-fitting clothes, it wasn't noticeable.
"What do I want? What are you talking about? Why are you asking such a strange question as soon as you come back?"
Tan Xi Yuan looked at him in confusion.
"Now, go and withdraw the lawsuit immediately!" Lu Feng said.
"Ha!" Tan Xi Yuan sneered, realizing the situation. "Did you receive a subpoena from the court?"
Seeing Lu Feng's cold silence, Tan Xi Yuan pursed his lips. "Withdrawing the lawsuit is impossible."
"Well, what would it take for you to agree to withdraw the lawsuit?" Lu Feng softened his tone and asked.
Tan Xi Yuan held up two fingers. "Twenty million. Give me twenty million, and I will withdraw the lawsuit."
