Chapter 8: Don’t divorce Dad, okay?
Chapter 8
Huang Duoduo did not doubt him and said, "Get up quickly and make me breakfast, I have to go back to school today!"
Li Man yawned and crawled out of bed.
She had gone to bed very late last night and felt like she had just closed her eyes before being woken up by her daughter.
She casually tied up her hair, slipped on her slippers, and walked to the kitchen.
She took out two tomatoes, two ham sausages, and three eggs from the fridge, preparing to make noodles.
Huang Duoduo quickly washed up, changed into her school uniform, and after getting ready, she walked out of the room and smelled the fragrant aroma drifting from the kitchen.
"Come and eat breakfast quickly, after eating I'll take you back to school." Li Man called out.
"Coming!" Huang Duoduo quickly came to the dining room, and did not forget to shout towards the master bedroom, "Dad, get up quickly and eat breakfast!"
Huang Duoduo had just sat down when the door of the master bedroom opened and Huang Dehan walked out with messy hair.
Li Man glanced at Huang Dehan and silently served him a bowl of noodles.
While her daughter was eating breakfast, Li Man hurried to brush her teeth and wash her face.
After she had tidied up, her daughter had also finished eating breakfast.
"Dad, eat slowly, I'm going to school now."
Huang Duoduo bid her father farewell, then went out the door with her mother.
"Okay, be careful on the road!"
Huang Dehan had a kindly smile at the corner of his mouth as he exhorted.
"I know."
Huang Duoduo responded as she reached the door.
Looking at this warm and harmonious scene, Li Man suddenly felt a little heartache. Before discovering Huang Dehan's affair, Li Man had always felt her marriage was a happy one.
After finding out about Huang Dehan's affair, she was shocked to realize how foolish she had been!
The car Li Man drove was Huang Dehan's old discarded car. He had bought a new car and gave the old one to Li Man to drive.
Even the phone Li Man used was Huang Dehan's old discarded one.
Huang Dehan was an "Apple fan", purchasing the newest iPhone every year. The old phone was actually still quite new, Li Man had used it for only a year after Huang Dehan discarded it.
On the drive to take her daughter to school, Li Man asked her daughter, "Are there classmates in your class whose parents are divorced?"
"Yes, quite a lot!" Huang Duoduo replied, then looked at Li Man and jokingly said, "Mom, why are you asking this? Don't tell me you also want to divorce Dad?"
Li Man's hands on the steering wheel tightened. She tentatively asked, "Then if I really divorced your dad, who would you go with?"
"Mom, are you crazy?" Huang Duoduo cried out in agitation, "Get rid of that idea right now, I don't agree to you divorcing, if you dare divorce I'll die in front of you!"
Li Man had not expected her daughter to be so agitated. She quickly said, "I was just speaking hypothetically, I didn't really mean I want a divorce."
"Humph!" Huang Duoduo snorted and said, "I don't care, anyway you absolutely cannot divorce!"
"Why can't we divorce? Didn't you say many of your classmates have divorced parents?"
"It's exactly because my classmates' parents are all divorced that I don't want you to divorce, because I know their pain."
Huang Duoduo's little face wrinkled into a ball as she said, "Mom, do you still remember Chen Peiqiang?"
Li Man's heart lurched. She certainly remembered that pitiful child.
Huang Duoduo went on, "His dad and mom got divorced, and each formed new families. He went to find his dad, but his dad told him to go find his mom. He went to find his mom, but his mom also told him to go find his dad. The two kept pushing him back and forth until finally he jumped from the school building and died!"
As she spoke, Huang Duoduo's eyes reddened. She looked at Li Man beseechingly, "Mom, I beg you, don't divorce Dad, okay?"
"If you must divorce, can you wait until I've grown up and can live independently before divorcing?"
Seeing her daughter's pitiful little face, Li Man's heart ached to the point she wanted to cry. She stroked her daughter's head, "Okay, Mom will try her best!"
Hearing this, Huang Duoduo finally smiled through her tears.
