"What's going on?"

Facing Yao Xueqin's sudden call, Liu Meiqi was full of confusion.

"Didn't I tell you, there's an important client to meet tonight?"

Yao Xueqin's tone seemed to be pouring her heart out to Liu Meiqi.

"That important client wouldn't be Wang Erhai, right?"

Liu Meiqi showed a hint of surprise.

"Exactly, it's him. General Manager Zhang asked me to represent Huangsheng Group to negotiate a new contract with his Shanhai Real Estate. I originally thought, after I settled things with him, I'd come tell you this surprise!"

Yao Xueqin said indignantly, continuing:

"I took a huge risk, actively adding 0.5 percentage points of commission to his new contract, persuading him to reconcile with you. And what do you think he did? He actually would rather actively lower the commission by 1 percentage point than reconcile with you, and even said that this divorce is happening, even Jesus couldn't stop it!"

Hearing these words, Liu Meiqi felt chilled to the bone.

She couldn't help but smile bitterly:

"Is Wang Erhai really that heartless? To divorce me, he's actually willing to sacrifice so many benefits..."

Yao Xueqin continued indignantly:

"So you see, he simply doesn't love you. I'll say something harsh, don't be angry, he now dislikes you just like disliking a used piece of toilet paper. It's simply too much, I feel it's not worth it for you!"

Hearing this, Liu Meiqi was uncharacteristically no longer easily angered like before.

She instead laughed, a laugh of relief:

"Forget it. Since he dislikes me so much, let's divorce. Anyway, I can't live without him."

Yao Xueqin echoed:

"Exactly! Meiqi, he doesn't deserve you at all! Besides having some stinking money, he's nothing! What's more, his money isn't even that much. Fifteen thousand yuan a month pocket money, what's that worth! With your own ability, you can easily earn this bit of money! You don't need to be sad for him, he doesn't deserve you!"

"Mm, I know, Xueqin. Thank you, you're truly my best friend!"

Liu Meiqi was deeply moved.

In these terrible days, Yao Xueqin added a warmth to her chaotic inner heart, allowing her to gradually calm down and stabilize, so she wouldn't act impulsively and be ruled by emotions like before.

No longer holding on unwillingly.

"Soon, the one-month divorce cooling-off period will pass quickly. Once this time passes, I'll immediately go divorce Wang Erhai. This time, I won't give him any chance!"

Liu Meiqi's originally firm inner heart became even firmer.

"Meiqi, I truly feel it's not worth it for you, it breaks my heart. I don't even know how you've lived through these days of marriage."

Yao Xueqin continued to comfort Liu Meiqi.

Liu Meiqi couldn't help but cry moved:

"Xueqin, you're my best friend, my best friend for a lifetime!"

Yao Xueqin also said:

"You're also my best friend for a lifetime. After you divorce, if you feel living alone is too lonely, I can move over to live with you. We'll help each other, girlhelpgirl. We don't need those stinking men at all, and can still live very happily, freely, and joyfully!"

Liu Meiqi cried even harder, moved to tears:

"Mm! You're right! We don't need those stinking men, and can still live wonderfully! Xueqin, can you come keep me company after you get off work tonight?"

Yao Xueqin agreed without hesitation:

"Fine, no problem. I'll go to your place in a bit. My little darling, don't ruin your health over a stinking man. With me here, everything will get better!"

"Thank you, Xueqin. It's great to have you!"

Liu Meiqi thanked her through tears.

But she had no idea what Yao Xueqin had done behind her back.

Nor did she know Yao Xueqin's true thoughts.

It can only be said that women are easily swayed by emotions.

And women like Liu Meiqi, who originally lack rational thinking, are even more easily led by the nose without knowing it.

Perhaps only on the day the truth is revealed, when she truly feels the knife has already stabbed into her body, can she feel the real pain and suddenly realize.

As for now, she only believes what she believes.

No one can persuade her; not even eight oxen could pull her back.

What's more, no one is even trying to persuade her now.

That night, Yao Xueqin really went to Liu Meiqi's residence and stayed with Liu Meiqi for one night.

Yao Xueqin was herself a single divorced person with no family ties. Staying with Liu Meiqi for one night was no big deal for her.

If making this small sacrifice could make Liu Meiqi even more determined to divorce, she felt it was worth it.

One month, neither long nor short.

During this month, she must continuously reinforce Liu Meiqi's desire to divorce and not let this matter have a turning point. Otherwise, all her painstaking efforts might end up as a bamboo basket drawing water—all for nothing.

On this side she kept persuading Liu Meiqi to divorce, while on the other side she kept showing favor to Wang Erhai.

The next day after she went to work, she found some free time and actively called Wang Erhai.

"President Wang, after I went back last night, I communicated with General Manager Zhang. I said everything I could, and he finally agreed not to lower the commission. Do you want to re-sign the contract?"

Yao Xueqin's sudden call made Wang Erhai stunned. Besides feeling surprised, he was also somewhat moved:

"Miss Yao, you actually don't need to help me like this. The contract is already signed. I won't go back on my word."

"Don't stand on ceremony with me," Yao Xueqin said. "Mei Qi and I are good friends; helping you is helping her."

Actually, she had long suspected Wang Erhai was very likely not going to re-sign the contract. She had understood this man thoroughly through Liu Meiqi long ago—he actually cared a great deal about face and dignity, and since he had signed the contract himself, he naturally could not go back on it.

"Heh heh, then thank you very much," Wang Erhai said with a wry smile, though his gratitude was sincere. He went on to say:

"I'm still saying the same thing: Liu Meiqi and I are already going through divorce proceedings. You really don't need to come help me for her sake."

Yao Xueqin, however, said:

"General Manager Wang, no matter what, I want to persuade you to stay for Mei Qi's sake. How does the saying go? Better to tear down ten temples than one marriage. Mei Qi is carrying your child—can you really bear it?"

Wang Erhai let out a long sigh:

"This isn't a question of whether I can bear it or not; it's that we simply can't go on living together. I remember this favor, and I'm very grateful to you, but please, really don't try to persuade me anymore, all right?"

Hearing these words, Yao Xueqin's lips curled slightly.

Her goal had been achieved.

She wanted Wang Erhai to feel he owed her a favor.

Only then would she have a chance later to continue having deeper contact with Wang Erhai.

"Fine then. Since General Manager Wang has put it that way, I won't persuade you anymore. After all, even an upright official finds it hard to settle household matters. Your marriage fate with Mei Qi—I'm an outsider, so I shouldn't interfere too much. Saying too much might annoy you."

Yao Xueqin acted very considerate and changed the subject:

"Huangsheng New City is showing its latest model homes this afternoon. Would you like to come take a look? If you do, just let me know, and I'll personally take you to see them."

Wang Erhai thought Yao Xueqin was a decent person, and besides, he happened to have nothing to do this afternoon, so he agreed:

"Fine. I'll go take a look this afternoon."
