Li Man felt a bit helpless as she stood up and stretched, saying, "Mom, you don't have to worry about my matters. I think everything is fine now."
After speaking, Li Man quickly slipped back into her room, worried that her mother would bring up the topic of marriage again.
Although Huo Jian Sheng was indeed a good person, she really didn't want to get married right now.
Looking at the closed door, Zhang Yan sighed, turned off the lights, and went back to her room to rest.
Li Man took out her phone and called Huo Jian Sheng, "Have you arrived at the hotel?"
"Not yet, but I'll be there soon," Huo Jian Sheng replied as he walked back to the hotel.
"Okay, when you get back to the hotel, remember to call me," Li Man said worriedly.
Huo Jian Sheng chuckled, "Are you worried about me?"
"Yes, is that not okay?"
The smile on Huo Jian Sheng's lips deepened as he glanced at the hotel ahead and said, "I've arrived."
"Have you? Well, rest well, and I'll come see you tomorrow morning."
"I want to wake up and see you," Huo Jian Sheng walked into the hotel, his words filled with meaning.
How could Li Man not sense the meaning behind his words, but she pretended to be clueless, saying, "Then I'll come see you early tomorrow."
There was a slight disappointment in Huo Jian Sheng's heart. What he wanted to hear was, "Then I'll come see you now."
But he knew Li Man wouldn't say such things.
He replied, "Then come early tomorrow, I want you to accompany me the whole day."
"Okay!" Li Man readily agreed.
Huo Jian Sheng walked to the elevator and said, "Get some rest early, see you tomorrow."
"Okay, see you tomorrow."
Huang De Han stood outside Li Man's house, his gaze fixed on the light in her window.
He didn't leave until the light in Li Man's room went out.
...
Huang De Han returned to the rented house.
It was an old house that was over thirty years old, with two bedrooms and a living room. The furnishings inside were simple, and the lighting was dim.
As soon as he entered, a musty smell hit his nose.
Huang De Han turned on the lights and placed the barbecue and beer he bought on the coffee table in the living room.
He threw his coat onto the sofa and lay down without taking off his shoes.
He turned on the TV and started eating the barbecue while watching.
At that moment, he inexplicably thought of Yi Bing.
He wondered how she was doing now.
Her parents should have rescued her, right?
She shouldn't be dead.
If she died, it wouldn't be his fault because he had already sent a message to her parents, telling them where she was. If they couldn't find her, it was their parents' fault, not his concern.
Huang De Han comforted himself in his mind.
Halfway through the beer, he suddenly became restless and eager to find a woman to have fun with.
But it was late at night, where could he find a woman now?
He had almost spent all his money, and he had to find some money, or else he would end up on the streets.
He had originally planned to kill Li Man and Zhang Yan and then leave the country with Huang Duo Duo.
But now he didn't have an ID, and he was a wanted criminal. How could he leave the country?
He took a sip of the beer in frustration, not knowing what to do.
However, he didn't want to let Li Man off so easily. Not only did she cheat on him with other men, but she also infected him with a venereal disease.
Even if he were to kill her, it wouldn't relieve his deep-seated resentment!
He wanted to capture her and bring her here, then slowly torture her.
She infected him with a disease, and he would make sure she got infected too.
This was about giving her a taste of her own medicine!
