Chapter 367 You're Lying
When Huang Duoduo returned from meeting Huang Dehan, she was caught by Li Man. After returning home, she immediately called Huang Dehan to tell him about it, but Huang Dehan's phone was off. So she sent him a message: "Dad, Mom saw me when I came back."
After sending the message, she deleted it.
After finishing the hotpot, Li Man asked Huo Jiansheng to go back to the hotel and wait for her, as she needed to go home.
Although Huo Jiansheng said he couldn't get any information, she was very worried and wanted to go back and find out the truth.
Huo Jiansheng dropped Li Man off at the entrance of the residential area and then returned to his hotel.
When Li Man returned home, she saw that only Zhang Yan was watching TV in the living room, so she asked, "Where's Duo Duo?"
Zhang Yan replied, "Duoduo is studying in her room."
Li Man hung her coat on the hook in the entryway, changed into slippers, and walked to Huang Duoduo's door, ready to push it open, only to find it locked from the inside.
She gently knocked on the door: "Duoduo, open the door!"
Upon hearing Riemann's voice, Huang Duoduo panicked and quickly opened her textbook in front of her before shouting towards the door, "I'm studying."
"Open the door!"
Riemann's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable authority.
Huang Duoduo let out a wail in her heart, and reluctantly walked over to open the door.
Riemann stood in the doorway, looking directly at Huang Duoduo, and asked in as calm a tone as possible, "Who did you go to see just now?"
When she returned, Huang Duoduo had already prepared her explanation, so she said, "I didn't go to see anyone. I was just bored at home, so I wandered around the neighborhood."
Riemann asked suspiciously, "Is that really true?"
Huang Duoduo nodded quickly and said, "Really, I'm not lying to you!"
Riemann didn't speak, she just stared at Huang Duoduo.
Huang Duoduo felt uncomfortable under Li Man's gaze, her eyes darting away, unable to meet Li Man's eyes directly. However, she still stubbornly insisted, "Mom, I really didn't lie to you!"
"You're lying!"
Li Man suddenly shouted coldly, which startled Huang Duoduo, and her eyes instantly turned red. But she still insisted, "I didn't, I really didn't, I just went out for a walk, why won't you believe me!"
As she spoke, Huang Duoduo burst into tears, feeling wronged.
This broke Zhang Yan's heart. She quickly ran over, hugged Huang Duoduo, and comforted her, "Don't cry, don't cry."
"Grandma, Mom doesn't believe me, I really just went out for a walk... Waaaaah..."
Huang Duoduo hugged Zhang Yan and cried, feeling very aggrieved.
Zhang Yan was heartbroken. She looked at Li Man and scolded, "What's wrong with you? You start yelling as soon as you get home. What's wrong with going out for a while? It's just a walk. Why are you so angry? It's not a big deal. Look, you've scared the child to tears. You're such an unreasonable mother."
Ignoring Zhang Yan, Riemann continued, "Tell me, did you go out to see your father?"
Huang Duoduo's crying stopped abruptly. She was so surprised that she forgot to cry. With tears on her face and her mouth agape, she stared blankly at Li Man. She really couldn't understand how her mother knew.
Seeing Huang Duoduo's reaction, what else did Li Man not understand?
She was furious and yelled, "Why are you so disobedient? Didn't I tell you that if he called you, you had to tell me? Why did you lie to me?"
Huang Duoduo cried and said, "He's my dad, Mom! Please, don't call the police to arrest him, okay? Dad is so pitiful. He's sick. He's really pitiful. Please don't call the police to arrest him, okay?"
