"No... no problem, I'll go down right away!"
Zhao Xingfang was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly replied.
She went downstairs with an apprehensive mood and soon saw Wang Erhai.
And a lady beside Wang Erhai.
That woman dressed very plainly, not even wearing makeup.
Her looks were also ordinary.
Zhao Xingfang felt she could completely outshine that woman.
What a pity, now it was that woman's hand Wang Erhai was holding, not hers, Zhao Xingfang's.
"General Manager Wang, this is..."
Zhao Xingfang asked politely.
Wang Erhai didn't even glance at her, answering coldly:
"My wife."
Then without waiting for any response from her, he asked again:
"Is the private room all set up?"
Zhao Xingfang busily said:
"It's set up."
"Then why not quickly take us to see? My wife is looking forward to this surprise!"
"Okay okay, I'll take you up right away..."
Zhao Xingfang took Wang Erhai and Zhang Yueran upstairs.
At this moment her mood could be described as complex to the utmost degree.
She never would have thought that the room she had meticulously prepared, intending to give Wang Erhai a surprise, would in the end become Wang Erhai's surprise for his wife!
What is called killing the heart?
This is killing the heart!
Silently and soundlessly, it left Zhao Xingfang's heart shattered to pieces.
Most importantly, she still didn't dare show any dissatisfaction!
She even had to forcibly squeeze out a smile to properly host Wang Erhai and Zhang Yueran!
Soon, Zhao Xingfang brought Wang Erhai up to the top-floor private room.
The door had just opened, and the three of them hadn't even entered yet.
Wang Erhai turned his head to Zhao Xingfang and said:
"You can go back."
"Ah?" Zhao Xingfang froze for a moment.
"I said you can get off work and go home. I don't want any other woman being an eyesore while my wife and I spend time together." Wang Erhai still had that cold attitude.
"Oh... okay... then General Manager Wang, I'll go. If you need anything, just call me..."
Zhao Xingfang turned and left as if fleeing.
That back view was as wretched as could be.
Even more wretched was that as she left, she faintly seemed to hear Wang Erhai's mocking voice:
"Still wearing a school uniform, truly laughable..."
Zhao Xingfang directly broke down.
Tears could no longer stop flowing down!
She entered the elevator and burst into loud sobs.
"Still wearing a school uniform, truly laughable!"
She herself also muttered in self-mockery.
She really was laughable!
A clown!
Naively thinking that spending money to invite Wang Erhai here to spend would win Wang Erhai's person!
Never expecting that Wang Erhai only treated her as a sucker!
But you can't blame Wang Erhai either; if to blame, blame herself!
Who made her vow solemnly to treat Wang Erhai to Western food, and say she'd cover all the costs!
Wang Erhai brought Zhang Yueran into the private room.
Only to see the layout here was romantic and ambiguous; on the table in the center of the room, dishes were already served — all kinds of expensive Western cuisine, steak, foie gras, red wine, and such.
Additionally on the floor beside it, 999 roses were arranged in a heart shape!
Zhang Yueran looked and couldn't help covering her mouth in surprise.
"Today, is it some special day?"
She couldn't recall what special day today was.
But this surprise Wang Erhai gave her truly made her very happy!
Wang Erhai said with a smile:
"Today isn't any special day, I just purely wanted to give you, my wife, a surprise."
Zhang Yueran felt a bit of heartache:
"How extravagant and wasteful this must be, I heard the per capita spending at this restaurant is over a thousand yuan!"
But Wang Erhai said:
"No problem, anyway it's not us paying! We'll eat what we should eat, drink what we should drink!"
Wang Erhai picked up the knife and fork, and started cutting the steak.
Zhang Yueran was somewhat puzzled:
"Not us paying, then who's paying?"
Wang Erhai couldn't help but laugh:
"That lady who just escorted us up, my high school classmate, she's treating!"
Zhang Yueran heard this, and froze for a moment.
Suddenly she thought of that woman, appearing in an old-style school uniform, and seemed to understand something.
"Husband, could it be that she's fallen in love with you?"
Wang Erhai didn't evade either; since he brought Zhang Yueran to eat this meal, he naturally hadn't planned to hide anything from Zhang Yueran.
He said:
"She hasn't fallen in love with me, she's taken a fancy to me."
"What's the difference?"
"The difference is huge; falling in love means asking nothing in return, taking a fancy means wanting to take."
Zhang Yueran slowly nodded, then suddenly realized:
"You brought me to eat this meal to make her give up this idea, right?"
"Right!" Wang Erhai answered with a smile.
Zhang Yueran couldn't help but laugh out loud:
"You're really too mean, how heartbroken that young lady must be!"
But Wang Erhai said:
"No choice, if I don't let her be heartbroken, then the one heartbroken would be you, my wife!"
Zhang Yueran then said:
"But we can't take advantage of her either; however much tonight's meal cost, tomorrow you transfer it back to her!"
Wang Erhai said with a smile:
"Okay, I'll listen to my wife on everything!"
Wang Erhai and Zhang Yueran ate Western food in this restaurant, listening to elegant music, watching the river view at night.
That kind of happiness made Zhang Yueran feel that marrying Wang Erhai was truly the most correct choice in her life!
What made her even happier was that Wang Erhai could have hidden it from her and come out to secretly eat this meal with his high school female classmate, but Wang Erhai didn't do that!
This shows Wang Erhai's responsibility to the family, his commitment to the marriage, is absolutely reliable!
The two chatted while eating.
Until nearly ten o'clock in the evening, they only then left Alice Restaurant.
In the blink of an eye it was the next morning; Wang Erhai had just arrived at the company for work when he called Zhao Xingfang over.
"Zhao Xingfang, how much was last night's meal? My wife said to have me return the money to you."
Zhao Xingfang was just about to open her mouth to say the real amount.
But the words had just reached her lips, yet she hesitated.
Because if she really let Wang Erhai return this sum of money to her, then she definitely would no longer have any possibility of winning over Wang Erhai!
So in the end she said:
"As long as General Manager Wang ate happily, played happily, that's fine; that little bit of money doesn't need you to return to me."
But Wang Erhai said:
"It's needed; my wife said to return it to you, so it must be returned to you; you hurry up and say a figure."
Zhao Xingfang however was unwilling to say:
"Really no need, I'm very willing to for General Manager Wang you..."
"Then I'll return you five thousand!" Wang Erhai interrupted her words, and also said: "I hate owing people favors the most!"
Wang Erhai felt that Western restaurant wasn't it per capita spending over a thousand? Then returning five thousand to Zhao Xingfang, Zhao Xingfang would definitely only profit, not lose.
Thus he and Zhao Xingfang would be even.
Zhao Xingfang for a time didn't know what to say.
Wang Erhai had already taken out five thousand in cash and threw it on the table.
"Take it, hurry back to your workstation to work; I still have other work to do here!"
Wang Erhai lightly dismissed it, intending to send Zhao Xingfang away.
Zhao Xingfang had no choice, in the end could only take that five thousand yuan, say thank you to Wang Erhai, then turn around and go out.
She returned to the Public Relations Department, her heart full of frustration!
She felt her possibility of landing Wang Erhai was almost equal to zero!
"Wang Erhai is extremely cunning; last night he brought his wife over and didn't tell me in advance, clearly deliberately giving me a blow... rather than stay and humiliate myself, better to find another way out..."
Zhao Xingfang started beating a retreat.
Just at this moment, Wu Moli walked in.
"Zhao Xingfang, I had you go handle Public Relations for General Manager Wang — how's the progress?"
Wu Moli had already heard about Zhao Xingfang inviting Wang Erhai out for a meal last night, so she came over specifically to ask about the progress.
She felt Zhao Xingfang must have made a breakthrough by now — after all, a lone man and a lone woman going out for dinner, anything could happen! Not to mention they're high school classmates!
However, the answer Zhao Xingfang gave was beyond her expectations:
"Sigh, don't mention it... General Manager Wu, how about I resign? The task you assigned me, I simply cannot complete..."
