In the next few days, Lu Zhengguo was not at home and she did not have to work for the time being, so Shen Man lived quite comfortably.

From time to time, she would go shopping in department stores, and occasionally go out for a walk with Lu Hongmei. If she was not happy with the meal at Lu's house, she would turn around and chat with her mother and eat the food her mother cooked for her.

However, these days, no one in the Lu family has troubled her, and even Lu's mother has been a lot nicer to her.

It's almost time to get off work.

Shen Man changed her clothes and went to the supply and marketing cooperative to pick up her mother from get off work, and bought some things there.

Unexpectedly, when I was halfway on my bike, I saw Lu Zhengguo and Shen Ping standing not far away and talking.

Lu Zhengguo had his back to her and she couldn't see his expression.

Shen Ping was facing her, smiling very gently, and occasionally lowering her head and smiling shyly. It was obvious that the relationship between the two was unusual.

This man had only been out for a day or two, and no one knew he was back. As soon as he came back, he got together with Shen Ping.

Shen Man stopped, and for a moment, she didn't know whether to go forward or take a detour.

If I take a detour, I probably won't be able to catch up with her mother when she gets off work, but if I go directly, I'm afraid I'll disturb them both.

After thinking about it, Shen Man rode her bike forward and passed by the two of them quickly.

Who cares? It’s not her who should be embarrassed.

A familiar aroma wafted by.

Lu Zhengguo looked up and saw that familiar slender figure. He immediately recognized it was Shen Man and subconsciously followed her.

She had just seen him, but she pretended not to see him.

Shen Ping, who was standing by, called him and said, "Brother Zhengguo, my sister is riding a bicycle now. You can't catch up with her."

In fact, she had already seen Shen Man, but she just wanted to disgust her, so she simply didn't say anything.

Lu Zhengguo stopped and thought, how could he have forgotten about it.

"I will verify what you said, and if it is true, I will deal with it."

"But if it is false, I will personally tell Gu Yang what you said today."

After warning Shen Ping, Lu Zhengguo left and headed in the direction Shen Man had just gone.

Shen Ping's face froze, and she hated Shen Man even more.

As expected of her, she has only been with Lu Zhengguo for a short time, but he is already on her side. He is even willing to believe her when Shen Man is flirting with other men.

Gu Yang felt the same way. He really didn't know what kind of drug Shen Man had given them.

Soon Shen Man arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative.

Yang Fang had just gotten off work and was about to walk home. She looked up and saw her daughter riding a bicycle, waving at her, "Mom, here."

"Manman, why are you here again? It's just a short distance to go home. I can walk by myself. You don't need to pick me up."

Yang Fang said this, but her face was filled with a smile that was hard to conceal.

Shen Man blinked, "Mom, I don't have to go to work recently, so I'm quite free at home all day. I pick you up every day, so I can go shopping at the same time."

This is the truth.

On the first day that Lu Zhengguo left, she and Lu Hongmei spent the whole day shopping there. She visited department stores, movie theaters, parks and the like.

Every time Lu Hongmei rushed to pay, and after asking, she found out that when Lu Zhengguo left, he gave her 50 yuan and asked her to take her out to play.

After knowing this, Shen Man lost interest in playing and basically stayed at home from then on.

After Shen Man sent Yang Fang to Shen’s house.

From a distance, I saw Lu Zhengguo standing at the gate of Shen's house, carrying several things.

Yang Fang glanced at Shen Man, "Man Man, look, isn't that Zheng Guo? Why did he come here suddenly?"

"Didn't you say he was out these few days?"

Shen Man looked at what Lu Zhengguo was carrying, "Mom, he came back today. I guess he came to see you guys."

To be honest, since this man came back, he has never paid a formal visit to her parents.

Of course, this was also related to his dislike for her, but he said that he would not divorce easily while ignoring her parents.

It's quite funny to talk about.

Yang Fang was stunned for a moment before she remembered this.

At first, her son-in-law called her aunt.

Even now, when she follows Manman and calls her "Mom", to be honest, she still feels uncomfortable with the sound.

Lu Zhengguo also saw the two people.

His gaze fell on Shen Man's face and stayed for a moment. Then he looked at Yang Fang beside him and walked over with something in his hand.

"Mom, I just came back from overseas and brought some things to you guys."

Yang Fang smiled and took out the key to open the door. "Come if you want to. Why do you need so many things? We are all family."

Lu Zhengguo glanced at Shen Man beside him, and paused, "Since I came back these days, I haven't formally visited you in person. It's really my fault. I just thought of this after I finished the things above today."

"I'm sorry to bother you guys to take care of Manman during the days I was away."

Shen Man glanced at the man. She didn't expect Lu Zhengguo to say such a thing. He was not like this to her normally.

Yang Fang was also a little surprised, but when she thought of her own daughter's face, she calmed down.

Men are all the same. They say they don't like it, but when they see their wives are pretty, they can't help but be moved.

"What's the point of talking about taking care of her or not? Manman is my daughter, and we are family." Yang Fang invited the two of them into the house.

"Your dad hasn't gotten off work yet. Zhengguo, you and Manman sit here. Mom will go out to buy groceries and make you something delicious."

Before leaving, Shen Man took Yang Fang's hand and said, "Mom, I'll go with you."

Yang Fang pulled her hand away, "Zhengguo is still here, talk to him, be obedient, mom will be back soon."

After saying that, she left Shen Man behind and went out.

Shen Man: “…”

It's over now, her mother has abandoned her.

Lu Zhengguo had walked up to her without her noticing and said calmly, "Don't you want to stay with me?"

Since he came back, her attitude towards him has been very distant, even worse than her attitude towards other people.

Even though she had done something wrong, she always managed to pretend to be innocent, which aroused sympathy and made it easy for people to cover up for her.

Shen Man blinked and answered him seriously, "No, you are wrong."

She now understands that the two of them will not get divorced in the short term.

She still had to be perfunctory. In order to prevent him from going crazy, her attitude towards him should at least be similar to that towards ordinary people.

This is the only way to get by.
