Chapter 41: Get the Order
Chapter 41
Li Man goes out to run her business every day, even on weekends and in bad weather. She never takes a break. She runs from morning until night, and if she gets hungry, she eats something outside, and if she gets thirsty, she drinks the bottled water she brings with her.
With this high-intensity work every day, Li Man's old back problem flares up again. She goes to the pharmacy to buy some ointment and continues to run her business.
One day, while introducing products to a client, she suddenly feels a sharp pain in her lower back. She grits her teeth and perseveres, but the intense pain makes her unable to help but frown. Her clothes are instantly soaked in sweat, but she endures it and finishes introducing the products.
The boss notices her pale face and asks with concern, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Li Man's face is as white as a sheet, and she replies, "Yes, but compared to the difficulties of life and survival, this pain is nothing."
Can she not work hard? Huang De Han really didn't give her any money for household expenses this month, and she only has a few hundred yuan left. If she doesn't work hard to sell products, she'll have to go hungry next month.
The boss, perhaps having experienced hardship himself, is touched by Li Man's words and signs a 100,000 yuan order with her.
Li Man didn't expect the boss to be so generous and keeps thanking him.
The boss waves his hand and says, "Don't thank me. You should thank yourself. It's your perseverance that moved me. It was just like you when I was young - running around and enduring hardships for a living. Young people, work hard. Life won't treat you unfairly. Your hard work will eventually be rewarded."
Li Man instantly breaks down. She blinks her eyes and holds back her tears, choking out, "I will."
That's how Li Man finally got an order before the end of the month.
...
The day of the trial arrives, and Li Man appears in court with Wang Junfeng.
The defendant's seat is empty. San Er and Huang De Han didn't show up.
San Er knew that whether she went or not, she would lose the lawsuit, so she just didn't bother to show up. After all, being San Er is not a glorious thing.
Even though San Er didn't show up, it didn't affect the court's ruling.
After the trial, the court ruled that the defendant had violated good customs by maintaining an improper relationship with Huang De Han while knowing he was still married, and by accepting gifted properties and assets. The defendant was ordered to return the gifted property and assets.
Hearing the court's ruling, Li Man breathed a sigh of relief. She decided to put the recovered property under her daughter's name, because even if she got the property back, it would still be considered the couple's joint property and would be split in half if they divorced. If it was under their daughter's name, it would be considered a gift to their daughter and would not be subject to division.
That night, Li Man arrived at the Tianze Lake Community, apartment 1003, with ease.
She gently knocked on the door.
The door opened quickly, and Saner stood there with her hair disheveled, wearing a sexy nightgown. When she saw Li Man, she became a bit nervous. "What are you doing here?" she asked.
Li Man's lips curved into a mocking smile. "This is my house. What do you think I'm doing here?"
Saner glared at Li Man with anger but didn't dare to say anything.
"Is Huang De Han inside?" Li Man asked, looking into the room.
Saner shook her head. "He's not here. You should look for him somewhere else."
As Saner was about to close the door, Li Man reached out and blocked the door with her hand, pushing it open and walking into the room.
