Chapter 637: Chapter 638 Eldest Sister Like a Mother 55_1

Huang Man was busy earning money every day, having no time to meddle in the trivial matters at home, let alone knowing about Zhao Mei leaving early and returning late every day.

As for Huang Lina and Huang Xin, they often went out for strolls and occasionally brought back some purchases.

Huang Man didn’t keep an eye on them, but the rare times she saw them, she would notice that they were always in new clothes.

Without asking, you’d know that Huang Lina must have succeeded in her interview and was about to start working at the nightclub; as for the money for the clothes, if nothing unexpected, it was most likely an advance.

Huang Man looked at the clothes hanging out to dry in the yard, well, the price of the clothes wasn’t that expensive, but it wasn’t cheap either.

The important thing was that Huang Lina had bought quite a few new outfits, and adding the money she earned from going out to eat and drink, it was obvious the advance wasn’t a small amount.

It seemed the "big shot" Huang Xin mentioned in his mouth must be quite satisfied with Huang Lina, otherwise he wouldn’t have let her advance so much money.

Huang Lina, carrying big and small bags, entered the yard with Huang Xin and saw Huang Man staring at her clothes.

"You must be pretty envious that I can wear such nice clothes," she said.

"I told you a long time ago, even if my grades aren’t as good as yours, I can still lead a good life."

Huang Lina arrogantly stated that her life would get even better in the future, "So what if you went to university, you’re still living a tough life."

"You probably don’t buy many nice clothes in a year."

Huang Lina looked triumphantly at Huang Man, who was simply dressed in a white T-shirt, and faded jeans that had been washed so many times their original color was indiscernible.

"Really shabby."

"Right, aren’t the college entrance exam results coming out soon?" Huang Lina asked with apparent concern, "How did you do?"

"I don’t know." In truth, she knew the moment the results were out; Q University was in the bag.

Even though the original owner of the body had not taken the college entrance exam, she still cared a lot about it, not just to prepare for Huang Xin’s exam.

More importantly, she couldn’t forget that she herself had once been eligible to take the college entrance exam.

She was quite clear about the admission score lines of several famous universities this year, and she definitely had a shot at Q University.

"What kind of university can you get into?" Huang Lina didn’t care about how many points Huang Man scored, her main concern was which university she could attend.

Seeing her eagerness, "I don’t know."

"The results aren’t out yet, nor are the admission score lines."

"The only certainty is that I haven’t filled in any universities in our province." Let alone the local universities not being good, even the prestigious one in our province was not chosen by Huang Man.

Huang Lina snorted coldly, "I think you should have applied for a university in our city. Although it’s a bit rubbish and not that great, at least it would have been a safe bet."

If she went to a university in the city, Huang Lina would have had a good laugh at her, something Huang Lina was very much looking forward to.

A university in the city? Huang Man didn’t respond verbally and glanced at Huang Lina before preparing to head back to her room.

Then Huang Lina remembered something important she had yet to tell Huang Man, "Oh right, I’m moving back to my old room to rest."

Now that she had an income, why should she keep inconveniencing herself?

Want to move back to her room? Did she think that having money gave her the right to swagger around?

Huang Man wasn’t about to indulge her and, making a fist, threatened, "What if I punched you in the eyes, one for each, how would you react?"

"After all, it’s your face they care about, what are you going to do if you get panda eyes?"

"Right, didn’t you say you wanted to move out and not live at home anymore?"

"Why haven’t you left yet?" Huang Man knew about Huang Lina’s pettiness, "Aren’t you worried that your buying sprees will get mom’s attention?"

She wouldn’t care about the things that Huang Lina bought. She didn’t even know how many clothes she could buy with the money in her card now.

"I’m not worried at all. Haven’t you noticed how busy she’s been lately?"

"Besides, if she dares to touch my stuff, I won’t let her off easily." Huang Lina had long wanted to teach Zhao Mei a lesson, and now that she had such a good opportunity, there was no way she would let it pass.

Oh, I see, Huang Man nodded in agreement, "So you were thinking about changing rooms..."

Huang Man glanced at a stick by the side, picked it up, and swung it forcefully against the steps, breaking it into several pieces.

Huang Man’s action stunned Huang Lina, and even Huang Xin by the side was taken aback.

He absolutely wouldn’t intervene when the two of them fought; he’d just let them go at it since neither was easy to deal with.

But he hadn’t expected Huang Man’s strength to be so formidable. My God, Huang Xin cautiously moved toward his room, deciding to treat Huang Man better from then on, lest she actually turned against him...

Huang Lina gulped, carefully retreating backward. She truly hadn’t known that Huang Man was, was so powerful. If she had known earlier, she definitely wouldn’t have done it.

"I, I, I won’t change rooms anymore." Huang Lina didn’t dare to think of changing rooms now, that would be utterly suicidal.

"You’re not changing?" Huang Man’s face showed disappointment, "I was actually looking forward to sparring with you before you switched rooms."

"No, no." Carrying her bag, Huang Lina rushed toward her room.

She really regretted it now. She should have rented a place earlier and not stuck around in such a dilapidated house, subjected to all kinds of bullying and with no way to avoid it.

Huang Man watched the two escapees and shook her head helplessly, knowing they lacked the strength they pretended to have and yet still acted so conspicuously.

"It’s really ’mom doesn’t act tough, and everyone thinks she’s a pushover.’" Huang Man scoffed a few times and then went back to her room.

Huang Lina hid in her room, not daring to speak. She was now really looking forward to Huang Man leaving for school in another place.

There had been a time when she considered hiring some tough guys to teach Huang Man a lesson, to let her suffer a bit, but Huang Xin stopped her because the cost was too high.

Their appearance fee alone was hefty, and it was sure enough to give her a hard time.

Considering Huang Man’s combat abilities, who knew if those guys could even beat Huang Man? Would everyone else let her off if she ended up causing trouble?

Thinking about this, Huang Lina took several deep breaths. Thankfully, everything was still alright.

Zhao Mei returned home with a smile plastered across her face; these past few days had been her happiest since Huang Zhiqiang’s incident.

Just thinking about the life she was about to have filled her with joy, but she had yet to make a decision.

She needed to plan this carefully and not leave any loose ends, because any slip-ups would definitely not end well.

Huang Man took a change of clothes and was about to shower when she noticed Zhao Mei’s beaming entry into the house, which immediately struck her as odd.

After all, since that incident, someone’s reputation in the village hadn’t exactly been stellar, with most people mocking her wherever she went.

How could Zhao Mei bear it, unless she was chatting outside the village. But if not in the village, then where did she go?

And then there’s her current smile, which made Huang Man think it felt like spring had arrived.
