The dilapidated small attic suddenly turned into a high-end shoe store. For the first time, Guan Shouheng knew that the word "Pengpi Shenghui" could be used in this way.
His mind went blank for a moment, and his whole body froze in place, unable to move.
It wasn't until the sound of water in the bathroom stopped that he found his breath again.
Mint came back from shopping and was sweating all over. She took a shower immediately after returning home. Because of the sound of running water, she didn't hear the door ring. So when she came out of the bathroom and saw Guan Shouheng at home, she was really, really surprised.
.
Because he had to keep going to work to make money, he had never come back so early.
She thought he must have come back to apologize to her, so she hesitated whether to talk to him, but before she could speak, he began to question sternly, "What's with these shoes?"
His questioning tone made all the softening in her heart disappear, and her tone became cold, "I bought it, what's the problem?"
Guan Shouheng almost didn't dare to think about it. She only felt scared. How could she have the money to buy these things?
"Where's the bankbook?" He heard his trembling voice. It wasn't that he was reluctant to buy things for her, but he was really, really scared. He had worked so hard to save such a sum of money to prepare for her delivery.
If she spends it all now, what will she and her children do then?
Passbook? He thought she spent the money in the passbook?
Mint couldn't help but sneer, "Guan Shouheng, who do you think I am?"
He didn't have the energy to refute her sarcasm. He just wanted to know how much money was left in his bankbook! How much more money would he need to make every day in the remaining five months to fill in the gap!
"Let me see the bankbook." Every time he said a word, he felt heartache. He also hated himself for being so fussy, but he couldn't do it without fussing. In the face of reality, a man's self-esteem seemed so ridiculous.
Mint didn't say much, walked to the table and took out the bankbook from the drawer. After marriage, he was only responsible for making money, and the bankbook was always kept by her, but she didn't want to take care of it anymore.
Guan Shouheng didn't understand why her expression could be so calm. He took the passbook with trembling fingers. He couldn't remember the specific amount, but the last record was still in the deposit column of last week.
His heart skipped a beat and he looked at the shoes on the ground again. He couldn't believe it. He picked up a pair and looked at the tag on it. The string of numbers on it looked like a sharp knife, piercing his heart.
Heart.
"How do you have so much money?" His voice was extremely hoarse.
"Don't worry, it's not a loan shark." Her tone was surprisingly cold, and she threw a document on the table.
When Guan Shouheng saw the words "Inheritance Inheritance Agreement", the hand holding the passbook dropped.
There was a lot of money in the bankbook, but his heart seemed even emptier.
"Any more questions?" She gave him a cold look.
"No." He shook his head indifferently. If so, what problem could he have?
But what was not a problem between them turned into a bigger problem.
She turned around and entered the bathroom again, and he glanced at the simple purple shoe box under the bed. There was no need to take it out.
"I still have to go work, let's go first." He didn't know if she heard it, but he had to go. Even if he worked like this for a month, he couldn't afford half a pair of shoes from her, but he still had to go.
Because no matter how much money she has, it has nothing to do with him.
