After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

"Mom, I already know I was wrong."

Li Manshu knew that her parents were still holding grudges, after all, they were opposed to her divorcing when she initially wanted to, advising her not to do it.

But she had been determined and refused to consider anything else, and it was natural for her parents to have opinions about her decision.

"Actually, a few days ago I went to talk to Yang Hao, but he didn't agree to remarry, so there was nothing I could do."

Li Manshu said with a touch of dejection.

"You talked to your son-in-law?"

Kang Huizhi finally looked at her eldest daughter squarely. As the saying goes, to know one's mistake and to change is truly admirable.

If her eldest daughter truly realized her mistake and sincerely wanted to reconcile with her son-in-law, that was naturally the outcome Kang Huizhi most wished to see.

"Manshu, if you really know you were wrong, you need to show some sincerity,"

Mr. Li, Li Baojun, added, sharing the same wish as his wife for their daughter and son-in-law to remarry if possible.

"It's normal for life to have ups and downs. As the saying goes, 'fortune comes and goes right up to old age'."

"It's no skill to live well in good times; the real ability is to live well through the hard times!"

"Besides, a man like Hao, who is responsible and capable, will turn things around sooner or later," Li Baojun added earnestly.

Li Manshu was wearing a gloomy expression, thinking to herself that a turnaround would indeed come, and in fact, it already had!!

"I truly realize my mistake, and I've sincerely apologized."

"Mom and Dad, maybe you could talk to Yang Hao when you see him, try to persuade him. If he agrees to remarry, I promise I'll live well with him from now on."

Li Manshu pledged with utmost sincerity.

She knew her parents still had a good relationship with Yang Hao, and perhaps with their intervention, there was a chance Yang Hao would agree to reconcile with her.

"If only you had known this earlier, why did you do it in the first place?"

Li Baojun sighed.

"I was blinded by foolishness," Li Manshu said with a face full of regret.

"Alright, when I see Hao, I'll talk to him..."

Seeing that her daughter seemed to truly recognize her mistake, Kang Huizhi's heart softened eventually, thinking about helping her daughter reconcile with her son-in-law.

In the midst of the conversation, the group of four had already reached the parking lot.

"Aren't we taking a taxi?"

Kang Huizhi pointed towards the nearby taxi waiting area.

"Manshu, did you buy another car?"

Li Baojun turned to his eldest daughter, knowing that she had received some money when she divorced her husband.

"I don't have money to buy a car!"

"It's Manni."

Li Manshu stated with a tinge of sourness in her expression.

"Manni bought a car??"

The old couple both looked at their younger daughter in surprise.

"Manni, you just started your internship, didn't you?"

"Where did you get the money for a car?"

"I'm telling you, Manni, we can't go down the wrong path!" Kang Huizhi warned with serious expression, not wanting her younger daughter to cause any more worry after all the trouble her elder daughter had already caused.

"Mom, what are you thinking!"

"Brother-in-law gifted it," Li Manni answered with a shrug of helplessness.

"Hao gave it to you??"

The old couple exchanged looks, both somewhat surprised.

"He gave it to me for my birthday last month."

As they were speaking, the four of them had approached a Porsche Cayenne. Li Manni pressed the unlock button on the car keys, and the headlights blinked immediately.

"This?"

"A Porsche Cayenne??"

Li Baojun exclaimed in astonishment, his mouth agape. As a security guard at the largest supermarket in his hometown county, often stationed in the parking lot, he was quite familiar with cars and recognized the model his daughter was driving at a glance.

"Is this car expensive?"

Kang Huizhi, not knowledgeable about cars but having heard of Porsche, asked curiously.

"It must be over a million,"

Even though the Cayenne was still regarded as a luxury car worth millions, Li Baojun recognized it but didn't know the exact price.

"What!!"

"Over a million???"

Kang Huizhi was dumbfounded, her eyes involuntarily widened, even the crow's feet at the corners stretching open.

In her memory, even in her son-in-law's most prosperous days, he hadn't driven a luxury car worth millions, had he?

Now, how could he even afford to give his younger daughter such an expensive car?

"Let's get in the car and talk."

Li Manni, who had not disclosed the matter to her parents, now felt there was no hiding it.

"Manni, what on earth is going on?"

Once in the car, Kang Huizhi couldn't wait to press for answers.

"To put it simply, Brother-in-law is now prosperous again, and even richer than before."

"But him giving such an expensive gift for my birthday, that was unexpected..." Li Manni spoke truthfully.

"Prosperous again?"

"Even richer than before!"

Kang Huizhi exclaimed in shock. She had also believed that her son-in-law would eventually turn things around, but she never anticipated it would happen so quickly.

"I always said Hao would make a comeback!"

"Whether a man can make something of himself is often evident, and though I may not be successful myself, I'm pretty accurate at judging others!"

Li Baojun immediately expressed his sentiment.

It was then that Kang Huizhi seemed to catch on, and she looked at her eldest daughter Li Manshu, "So you knew about Hao making it big, realized your mistake, and now want to get back together with him?"

"Mom, listen to how you're talking."

"I truly have realized my mistake, and it has nothing to do with whether or not he has made it big."

"I just want to give Xixi a complete family!"

Li Manshu declared earnestly.

Meanwhile, Li Manni, who was ready to drive, couldn't help but roll her eyes subconsciously.

She had to admire her sister's thick skin!

"Sis, I better take you home first!"

Li Manni quickly changed the subject, not wanting to hear any more of her sister's insincere remarks.

But Kang Huizhi, understanding her daughter, ranted with exasperation, "I think you're just seeing that Hao has made it, and now you want to turn back!!"

"Ah, how did I give birth to such a mercenary daughter!!"

Kang Huizhi clutched her chest, clearly upset once again.

"Mom, how can you think of me like that!"

"My desire to remarry really has nothing to do with money!" Li Manshu denied firmly, still wanting to maintain a good image in front of her parents so they would help persuade Yang Hao to remarry her.

"By how you truly feel, you know yourself!"

"When you got married, Mom didn't oppose you finding someone with good conditions; economic conditions are indeed very important, but you have to treat each other well!"

"When Hao's career hit a low, you just left him in the dust!"

"Let me tell you, I am actually too ashamed to face Hao now, for I haven't educated my daughter well enough!!"

Kang Huizhi sighed while continuing her tirade.

If Yang Hao hadn't turned his fortune around, she really might have wanted to persuade them to get back together.

But now that he's made it, doing even better than before, she felt embarrassed to bring up the matter of them getting back together.

You ran away when he was down on his luck, and now that he's successful, you come back; what does that make it!

Kang Huizhi found herself unable to broach the topic.

"Mom, let's not bring up the past."

"Anyway, I already know I was wrong; however you want me to apologize to Hao, I can accept it, just help to persuade him."

"After all, if we were to remarry, it would be better for Xixi and for you..." Li Manshu began to work on their parents.

Kang Huizhi, however, curled her lip in disdain, "I can't say such things!"

"Nor can I!"

Li Baojun echoed in agreement.

Seeing her parents take such a stance left Li Manshu speechless; she truly hadn't expected even them to be unwilling to help.

"Manni, your brother-in-law still cares about you a lot."

"You should speak to him later..."

Li Manshu placed her hopes on her younger sister again.

"Sis, you should talk to brother-in-law yourself."

"I don't want to get involved in what's between you two!"

Li Manni decisively shook her head, and for reasons unknown to her, she had long ago begun to wish that her brother-in-law and sister would not reconcile.

Especially after witnessing her sister's recent behavior, she felt even more that her sister simply didn't deserve brother-in-law.

"It's clear to see, none of you want me to be happy!"

Li Manshu, having faced rejection after rejection, huffed and turned her head to gaze out the car window, feeling that, despite everything, she had gained something today.

She learned that Yang Hao was now the president of Jiangcheng Newspaper Group and that she could look for him directly there in the future.

Moreover, the phrase he said to her sister, "Parents are still parents," indicated that he hadn't intended to completely sever ties with his own family.

Back in the city center, Li Manni took her sister Li Manshu home and then drove to Star Cloud Bay.

Once Li Manshu got out of the car, Kang Huizhi immediately said to Li Manni, "Manni, you must never follow in your sister's footsteps; it's okay to want a boyfriend with good conditions, but you mustn't run away when they're in trouble!"

"Mom, I know."

Li Manni nodded; she was not that kind of person to begin with.

"By the way, have you got a boyfriend yet?" Kang Huizhi continued questioning.

"No."

Li Manni shook her head, "I've just gotten a promotion at work from brother-in-law, so I've been very busy."

"Huh?"

"Hao gave you a promotion?" Kang Huizhi caught the key piece of information in her daughter's words.

"I forgot to tell you, brother-in-law is also my superior now..."

Li Manni briefly explained the situation with her brother-in-law, Yang Hao.

"Hao has become the president of a group??" Read the latest on M-VL-emp,yr

"No wonder he could just give away a luxury car worth over a million that easily!"

Li Baojun exclaimed with a shocked face.

"Speaking of the car, even if Hao is wealthy, giving away a car worth over a million is a bit too much..." Kang Huizhi frowned slightly and then looked at her grown-up younger daughter, her eyebrows suddenly raising, "Manni, there isn't something going on between you and your brother-in-law, is there??"

Screech!!

It just so happened that as Kang Huizhi spoke, a taxi ahead changed lanes erratically, prompting Li Manni to instinctively hit the brakes.

And under the force of inertia, Kang Huizhi and Li Baojun in the back seat involuntarily lurched forward, with Li Baojun's head even hitting the back of the front seat.

Seeing her daughter's strong reaction, Kang Huizhi thought she had hit the nail on the head. After sitting back properly, her face suddenly registered shock, "Manni, you're not actually with your brother-in-law, are you?"

"What do you mean?"

"Has Hao become our son-in-law again??"

Li Baojun rubbed his forehead, shocked as well.

Li Manni, her face turning slightly red with the questioning, composed herself and replied, "Not yet, don't talk nonsense!"
