Revenge of the Wife

Chapter 6

After applying her skincare products, Li Man looked at Huang Dehan lying on the bed and asked, "Dear, how much savings do we have left?"

Huang Dehan had always been in charge of the family's money. Each month, he only gave her 10,000 RMB for household expenses.

Li Man didn't know how much money Huang Dehan had. She only had a bank card from Huang Dehan with a little over 20,000 RMB in it, saved up bit by bit over the years by scrimping and saving.

Li Man sighed to herself, hating how she had been blinded by greed back then and trusted Huang Dehan so much, only to end up in such dire straits.

"Why are you asking about this?" Huang Dehan asked warily.

"I want to buy a house!" Li Man said. "I want to move to a bigger place so we can live more comfortably."

Huang Dehan snorted disdainfully. "Buy a new house? You're dreaming too much. Do you know how expensive houses are nowadays? In Shencheng, housing prices are 70,000 to 80,000 RMB per square meter. For better locations, it's over 100,000 RMB. We don't have nearly enough money to buy a new house."

Li Man's eyebrows furrowed slightly. She had expected Huang Dehan to refuse to buy a new house. She had only brought it up to test the waters and see if she could find out how much savings they had from Huang Dehan's response.

"Then, dear, exactly how much in savings do we have left?"

"Not much, just a few tens of thousands RMB."

Huang Dehan avoided her gaze, not daring to look at Li Man. He tossed his phone onto the bedside table and said, "Let's go to sleep. I have to go back to work tomorrow."

Li Man pressed her lips together and didn't ask further.

She didn't believe Huang Dehan's lies at all. As far as she knew, Huang Dehan's monthly salary had been 60,000 RMB several years ago. Who knew how much it had increased by now.

Even if his salary hadn't gone up, their savings couldn't possibly be that little.

They had finished paying off their mortgage two years ago. The only loan they had left was their car loan. The Porsche Cayenne that Huang Dehan drove now was bought last year for 1.89 million RMB. They paid 28,000 RMB per month for the car loan.

With the car loan being 28,000 RMB and household expenses being 10,000 RMB, Huang Dehan still had 22,000 RMB left each month.

With 22,000 RMB left over each month, could he not save at least 10,000 RMB?

However, when Li Man thought about the mistresses Huang Dehan kept outside, she felt stifled and short of breath.

She turned off the lights and got into bed.

They didn't sleep in separate beds.

It wasn't because their relationship was that good, but because there weren't enough rooms.

Their home was a 110 square meter three-bedroom apartment.

When Huang Dehan's mother was still living with them, she had a room to herself while Huang Dehan and Li Man shared a room and their daughter had her own room.

When they hired a live-in housekeeper, the housekeeper shared a room with the old lady. A small bed had been added to the old lady's room for the housekeeper to sleep on.

It was very late into the night. Huang Dehan's snores grew louder and louder. After making sure he was sleeping deeply, Li Man quietly slipped out of bed.

The room was pitch black, with only a sliver of light coming in through the curtain cracks.

She gingerly picked up Huang Dehan's phone.

She wanted to see if she could find any evidence in his phone.

Huang Dehan was sleeping soundly. Li Man lightly grasped his hand and used his fingerprint to unlock the phone.

She opened WeChat and saw his chat with a woman named Baby.

Li Man took a look and saw that the previous chat history had been deleted, leaving only tonight's conversation untouched.

"Dear, your mother is gone now. When are you finally going to divorce your wife?"

"Baby, wait a little longer. I'm not ready yet."

"What else do you need to prepare?"

"I feel like if I just divorce her like this, it'd be letting her off too easy."

"So what are you going to do?"

"Dear??"

"???"

The chat ended there.

Li Man figured he must have put down his phone before he could reply back when she spoke to him earlier.

Seeing this chat gave Li Man cold sweats down her back. What was Huang Dehan planning to do to her?
