Seeing Zhang Manli's index finger slowly moving towards his chest, Wang Lei didn't feel embarrassed. Instead, he felt proud.
The changes that the system had brought to him were really beneficial to both the old and the young.
"Mommy!"
Suddenly, Kaiwen Yang called out with a frown.
It was as if she was treating her own mother as a competitor.
Zhang Manli heard Kaiwen Yang's voice and suddenly became embarrassed. She quickly retracted her index finger and squeezed out a smile."Let's go, I'll take you guys to eat!”
"Mom, big brother said he wants to treat us to a meal!”
Kaiwen Yang was too honest, which made Wang Lei feel awkward.
It wasn't that Wang Lei was stingy, but he was really short of money.
Wang Lei couldn't possibly bring such a beautiful mother and daughter to eat Lan Zhou ramen.
Zhang Manli was a civil servant with a high status. She had been in the officialdom for 20 years. Her EQ was very high and she was very good at dealing with people.
She glanced at Wang Lei's clothes and knew that Wang Lei probably didn't have much money. She didn't want to embarrass Wang Lei and said,"Although I'm older than you, I'm still a child. As an elder, it's only right for me to treat you to a meal. Don't dawdle. Hurry up and get in the car!”
Zhang Manli did not point out that Wang Lei was poor. Moreover, she was treating him like an elder. Wang Lei had no reason to refuse.
When Wang Lei heard this, he felt very comfortable in his heart. He did not lose face and could also have a meal with the two beautiful women. Why not?
The three of them got into the car and Zhang Manli took them to the most luxurious hotel in Wucheng, Wucheng International Hotel.
Wang Lei was a poor kid in both his previous and current life. When had he ever been to such a luxurious hotel?
Standing at the entrance of Wucheng International Hotel, Wang Lei was a little embarrassed. He said,"Auntie, there's no need to spend so much money, right?”
"Brat, how dare you call me auntie? Are you complaining that I'm old?”
Zhang Manli squeezed out an unhappy expression and said jokingly.
"Sis…Sis, isn't it a little expensive for us to come to such a good hotel to eat?”
Wang Lei changed the way he addressed Zhang Manli. He felt a little awkward when he said the word "sister".
"Hey, just call me sister. You helped my daughter a lot today, so of course I have to treat you to a good meal. Moreover, you're so handsome. How can I not spend some money?”
Zhang Manli said with a smile. Her every move was flirtatious.
"Mommy!"
Kaiwen Yang saw his mother like this and immediately became anxious.
Fortunately, this was not a blind date. If this was a blind date, it was uncertain whose husband the man would become in the end.
"Alright, alright, let's not play anymore. Let's go in and eat!”
Zhang Manli said with a smile, then led the two of them into a private room.
The interior of the private room was very high-end and could not be compared to ordinary restaurants.
Not to mention what to eat, just booking this private room alone would cost 1,800 yuan.
Zhang Manli didn't order too many dishes. It was enough for the three of them.
However, every dish was very exquisite and expensive.
Wang Lei felt a little lucky.
Fortunately, he didn't treat them to a meal. Otherwise, this meal would cost him half a month's salary.
At the dining table, Wang Lei could not help but ask,""Sister, your family should be pretty well-off. Why did you let Wenwen squeeze on the bus?”
"Although our family's conditions are not bad, I can't let my daughter develop the habit of being spoiled. Therefore, I usually let her squeeze on the bus like an ordinary person!”
Zhang Manli said naturally. It was obvious that she attached great importance to her daughter's education. It was not only cultural education, but also moral education.
"Sister, you're really amazing. May I ask what your job is?”
"I work in the court!"
"So it's the public security department. What a high-class job. If your daughter is bullied today, you can support her!”
"It's not that easy. The policy is very strict now. Civil servants like us can't use our official position for personal gain. We even have to put justice above family. If my daughter was really bullied by that old man today, I have to apologize to that old man!”
Zhang Manli sighed. Society had been kidnapped by morality. Even though she had a high position in the court, she could not do anything about it.
When Wang Lei heard this, he gasped. He never expected that the moral kidnapping of this world was so powerful.
"Sister, may I ask what your husband does for a living?”
Wang Lei asked curiously.
Hearing Wang Lei's question, Zhang Manli's face flashed with a trace of sadness. Kaiwen Yang also became sad, as if he was about to cry.
Seeing the expressions of the mother and daughter, Wang Lei knew that he had said something wrong.
Zhang Manli was so beautiful. Her married life was either very happy or very unfortunate.
Obviously, her marriage was very unfortunate. It was very likely that her husband had abandoned her.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought this up!”
Wang Lei hurriedly apologized, hoping to ease the atmosphere.
"It's okay. It's not a big deal. My husband passed away 10 years ago. We can't be immersed in pain anymore.”
Zhang Manli forced a smile and pretended to be calm.
Wang Lei turned pale with fright when he heard this. He never expected to hear such an answer. If he had known earlier, he would not have brought up this topic.
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have brought up your sad memories!”
"It's okay, it's really okay. Do you want to know how my husband died?”
Zhang Manli looked at Wang Lei and asked.
The sadness in her eyes lessened and she became more determined, just like a strong woman.
Kaiwen Yang became even more pained, as if he could cry at any moment.
