Chapter 257 Huo Jiansheng's face was sour.
"Don't cry, Duoduo, Mom is coming to find you right now."
Hearing her daughter cry, Riemann was very anxious and quickly comforted her.
"Mom, come quick! They're all bullying me!" Huang Duoduo cried, unable to catch her breath.
Li Man felt extremely distressed and quickly said, "Okay, okay, Mom will come over now. Don't cry, be good."
After hanging up the phone, Li Man said apologetically to Huo Jiansheng, "I'm sorry, Huo Jiansheng, I probably can't have dinner with you. My daughter has something to do, and I have to go over there now."
"What's wrong? I'll take you there," Huo Jiansheng said quickly.
"I guess I had a fight with my classmate. Never mind, I'll just take a taxi there myself."
Upon hearing what Riemann said, Huo Jiansheng's face immediately darkened.
"I've already paid for the clothes. I'll treat you to dinner another day," Li Man said, handing the packed clothes to Huo Jiansheng.
Huo Jiansheng took the clothes somewhat reluctantly, but still insisted, "I'll take you there. It's rush hour, and it'll be hard to get a taxi."
Li Man wanted to refuse, but it was indeed difficult to get a taxi at this time, and she didn't want her daughter to wait too long, so she agreed, "Okay, thank you."
Let's go!
Huo Jiansheng's face was sour, and he seemed somewhat unhappy.
Li Man followed behind Huo Jiansheng, not daring to make a sound. She didn't know why he suddenly became unhappy, even though he was quite happy when they were buying clothes.
After getting into the car, Huo Jiansheng remained silent.
Riemann remained silent, worried about her daughter.
The car was moving slowly.
Riemann sat in the passenger seat, looking anxiously at the long line of cars stuck in traffic outside the window.
Huang Duoduo waited for a long time but didn't see Li Man come over. She felt a surge of anger. She thought, "She's so useless. She's so slow to come to the school!"
"Hey, Duoduo, didn't you say your mom was coming? Why hasn't she shown up yet? Are you lying to me? Or did your mom run away with your dad?"
As soon as Lin Na said this, the students burst into laughter.
By this time, the classmates already knew that Huang Duoduo's father, Huang Dehan, had run away, and they all looked at her with schadenfreude.
Huang Duoduo was so angry that her face turned red. She picked up her phone and called Li Man again.
When Riemann saw her daughter's call, she quickly answered it.
"Are you coming or not? If you're not coming, then tell me why you lied to me!" Huang Duoduo's angry roar came from the other end of the phone.
Li Man quickly said, "I'm on my way, but there's a traffic jam. There's nothing I can do. Can you wait for me?"
Although she was unhappy with her daughter talking to her like that, she still patiently explained.
Huang Duoduo's voice was loud enough for Huo Jiansheng, who was sitting next to her, to hear. He glanced at his phone with displeasure, his jawline taut, as if he was suppressing something.
"Can't you drive faster? Is the traffic jam really that long? I think you just didn't want to come!"
Riemann explained helplessly, "There's a traffic jam right now, I really can't go fast."
"I'll give you ten minutes. If you can't be here in ten minutes, don't bother coming!" Huang Duoduo said and hung up the phone.
Riemann looked at her phone, feeling a pang of sadness.
At that time, I had to take care of my mother-in-law and didn't have much energy to take care of my daughter, so I sent her to a boarding school.
This led to her daughter becoming less and less dependent on her and less close to her.
Huo Jiansheng finally couldn't hold back and said, "Your daughter really needs to be taught a lesson. If she were my daughter, I would definitely beat her up. What kind of daughter talks to her mother like that?"
Riemann's eyes darkened, and he sighed without saying a word.
