Chapter 398 Oh no, I let it slip.



After dinner, He Wenlin asked her father to drive her and her mother to the mall.

He Wenlin took her mother to browse through the entire clothing section. He's mother was like a tool, trying on all kinds of clothes, pants, and skirts.

Sleeveless maxi dresses, sleeveless mini dresses, pencil skirts, mermaid pencil skirts, maxi dresses with sleeves, mini dresses with sleeves, maxi skirts, shirts, T-shirts, white, black...

He Wenlin thought her mother looked good in the clothes, so she bought them all!

He generously bought twenty items for He Ma in one go, fifteen of which were dresses!

Of course, she didn't buy them in front of her. She definitely wouldn't let He Wenlin buy them in front of her. He Wenlin would wait until He Wenlin had tried on almost all the shoes and went to look at other shoes before going back and buying them all!

Now, looking at He Wenlin, He's mother exclaimed excitedly, "Oh dear, you spendthrift! You bought so much! Do you have nowhere to put your money? Go and return it right now! You owe the credit union and the bank over a million yuan, have you forgotten? You, you, you..."

“If the banks aren’t worried, why are you?” He Wenlin said. “All of this adds up to less than two thousand yuan. I’m a millionaire, what’s two thousand yuan?”

“Millionaire? I think you’re a millionaire in debt.” After saying that, Mrs. He took a deep breath to calm herself down.

Then, she said earnestly, "I'd be happy with just a couple of outfits, you don't need to buy me so many. Two thousand yuan would have taken me two months of work without eating or drinking in the past. Return it..."

“Mom, money is meant to be spent. As our business grows, we’ll meet more and richer bosses. You’ll find that two thousand yuan is just the price of two pairs of stockings for them,” He Wenlin said. “Two thousand yuan is really nothing for our current income. From now on, Dad and I will be in charge of making money, and you can just focus on looking beautiful. Women must take care of themselves and dress up. Mom, do you like these shoes? If you do, we’ll buy them too.”

He's mother pondered He Wenlin's words, then asked, "Did something happen today?"

Why would you ask that?

“You’re always generous when it comes to buying us things, but never like this before. And you keep making me dress up. Is your dad disgusted with me?” Mother He was very unhappy when she thought of this. “Hmph, I haven’t even complained about his sweaty body, and now he’s complaining about me!”

"Mom, Dad didn't look down on you, don't make wild guesses."

"Hmph, I don't believe it. Your dad must be disgusted with me. Don't even think about hiding it for him."

He Wenlin: "..."

He Wenlin paused for a moment and said, "Actually, I saw a lot in Shenzhen this time. The story is like this: an uncle and his wife went from nothing to something, and then when they had money, there were women around them who dressed up and took the initiative to seduce them."

So, Mom, you see, our family's life is getting better, but who outsiders would believe that Dad doesn't have money? What if some shameless guy comes along and throws himself at us?

So Mom, don't neglect your work, but don't forget about looking good either. Dress up beautifully for work every day, and Dad's eyes will be drawn to you. Even if you try anything shameless, he'll ignore it. Men all like good-looking women.

After saying that, He Wenlin said to the sales assistant, "Put these two pairs of shoes and bags on order, we'll take them."

Upon hearing this, Aunt He quickly stopped her: "No, no, no, no, no, two hundred and eighty, what are you buying?"

"Good shoes are more durable, and I don't buy them every day. Besides, these shoes look good with the dress. I've already bought the dress, so if I don't buy the shoes, wouldn't it be a waste? Waiter, please give me the order."

Upon hearing this, the sales assistant quickly processed the order and said to Mrs. He with a smile, "Sister, your daughter is so filial. Our shoes are of good quality and will last for a year or two without breaking. Most importantly, they look good on you."

He Ma felt as happy as if she had drunk an ice-cold beverage on a hot day.

Immediately afterwards, He Wenlin took her mother to buy cosmetics, but this time He's mother refused to go and dragged He Wenlin downstairs.

As soon as they arrived on the first floor, Mr. He called to ask where they were.

The family met at the exit, and seeing that the mother and daughter had bought so many things, Mr. He quickly took them from them.

When she got home, He Wenlin went to wash up first, while her mother removed the tags from her clothes and skirts, preparing to wash them.

Mr. He looked around, completely bewildered: "You two bought so much, but didn't you buy me a single thing?"

“Don’t you have enough to wear? Besides, you work in a fast food restaurant all day, there’s a lot of oil and smoke, and you sweat a lot. You don’t need to wear anything too nice. Having two decent outfits is enough to go out in public,” said Aunt He confidently.

Mr. He's eyes widened in disbelief that his virtuous wife could utter such cold words!

“You’re working too. When you go to the cake factory, you’ll have to wear a uniform, a mask, and a hat. How come you’re dressed so nicely?” He’s father said indignantly. “This wretched girl must have had a grudge against me in her past life to be so angry with me in this life. She didn’t buy me a single thing.”

Twenty items, even just one for him to make a show of would be fine.

Not a single one!

I'm so angry!

Seeing Mr. He's constipated look, Mrs. He said smugly, "I carried the child for ten months and gave birth to her. She suffered a lot, so it's normal for her to buy me more things."

After saying that, Aunt He added sarcastically, "If I don't wear something nice, won't someone complain that I'm ugly, that I'm old and faded, and that I'm not as pretty as other women?"

"Who's complaining about you? Who's complaining about you?" Mr. He exploded. "Who said you're not as pretty as other women? I'm more wronged than Dou E! I didn't do anything. How was I supposed to know that woman would wipe my sweat?"

"What did you say?" Aunt He asked through gritted teeth. "What woman? Wiping your sweat? He Daming, if you don't explain yourself clearly today, I'm not done with you!"

After He Ma finished yelling, tears welled up in her eyes.

Mr. He was also stunned. She didn't know? Linlin hadn't told her.

Oops, I let it slip!

Mr. He wanted to slap himself twice. Why did he have to speak so quickly?
