Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

That afternoon, Liu Meiqi completed all her pre-surgery physical examinations in a daze.

That night she tossed and turned, suffering insomnia all night long.

She had been waiting for someone to come persuade her, so she could give up her decision to have an abortion.

Only pity was that no one would come persuade her at all.

Yao Xueqin wouldn't persuade her, Wang Erhai wouldn't persuade her.

Her parents might persuade her, but she hadn't told her parents about this matter.

Because she knew, if her parents found out about this matter, her parents would definitely scold her.

As for Wang Erhai's parents, if they found out about this matter, they would definitely strongly oppose it, but she was even less likely to tell them about this matter, because toward Wang Erhai's parents, she had originally disliked them from the bottom of her heart.

Especially after she learned that Wang Erhai's father had Hepatitis B, she disliked them even more unbearably.

So by the next morning, she walked into the operating room accompanied by Yao Xueqin.

Without outside interference, Liu Meiqi herself wasn't very resolute inside, so naturally there was no miracle, nor any accident, the child was ultimately aborted.

After the surgery Liu Meiqi was very weak.

She very much wanted Yao Xueqin to come take care of her.

However, Yao Xueqin said:

"Mei Qi, I'm very sorry, I have to go to work, you rest assured, I'll come keep you company when I have time, if it really doesn't work out, you hire a nanny."

Liu Meiqi couldn't well force Yao Xueqin to stay and take care of her, she could only smile bitterly and nod.

Wang Erhai was instead carefree, after learning the child had been aborted, he instead felt a sense of relief.

But one matter also made him troubled, how to explain to his parents?

He knew his parents day and night hoped to hold a grandson, if they found out the child had already been aborted, wouldn't they come break his leg?

Now there was really no choice, he could only drag it out day by day.

The matter of divorcing Liu Meiqi also couldn't let them know.

Wait a year or two, after he found a new girlfriend, then telling them wouldn't be too late.

By then, their reaction perhaps wouldn't be so intense.

After the abortion surgery, Liu Meiqi's lochia remained unclean for a long time, she also didn't know what was going on, feeling it might be an infection.

These past few days Yao Xueqin kept saying work was very busy, and hadn't come to see her again.

She felt unprecedented confusion and helplessness.

That day she really couldn't hold back anymore, sent a WeChat message, asking Yao Xueqin to come over, accompany her to the hospital for a re-examination.

However, Yao Xueqin was still that same sentence:

"Mei Qi, I'm very sorry, I've been too busy with work recently, really can't spare any time! You have to be strong, you're an independent woman, just go to the hospital yourself, it's no big deal, keep it up!"

Liu Meiqi's heart was extremely depressed.

It was only at this time she realized a hint that something was wrong.

Before the child was aborted, Yao Xueqin had plenty of time to accompany her, even if working overtime, she would squeeze out time to comfort her.

Now the child had been aborted, Yao Xueqin instead directly went missing.

In this small county town of a footprint's size, the two weren't far apart, she just didn't believe Yao Xueqin really couldn't squeeze out any time to come see her.

But matters had come to this, feeling something was wrong was useless.

She could only go to the hospital alone.

And at this time, on the other side, Yao Xueqin had just replied to Liu Meiqi's WeChat message, then sent a WeChat message to Wang Erhai:

"General Manager Wang, after Mei Qi had the abortion, her body isn't very comfortable, do you want to go see her?"

This woman Yao Xueqin was really too good at disguising herself.

Up until now, the attitude she had shown in front of Wang Erhai was all very concerned about Liu Meiqi, because she knew, what men hated most was that kind of woman who backstabbed her best friend.

If Wang Erhai learned her true face, then all the good impressions she had accumulated in front of Wang Erhai before would instantly disappear, replaced by endless disgust.

So now although Liu Meiqi had already miscarried, the two divorcing was already a settled matter, she still continued to disguise herself.

She wasn't so stupid as to immediately reveal her true colors just as she succeeded.

"No need, her body is uncomfortable, that has nothing to do with me."

Wang Erhai acted very coldly.

If Liu Meiqi were still carrying his child, he might go see Liu Meiqi out of moral reasons.

Now Liu Meiqi had already aborted the child, then there was no tie between them anymore, Wang Erhai naturally couldn't go care about her anymore.

"General Manager Wang, doing this, isn't it a bit heartless? You two haven't divorced yet, she's still your wife."

Yao Xueqin sent such a WeChat message to Wang Erhai.

With this WeChat record, then even if Liu Meiqi suspected her of setting a trap, she just needed to show the WeChat messages, and could still make Liu Meiqi feel she had wronged her.

This was her cleverness.

She never exposed her desires nakedly.

She would fight indirectly, she would plan slowly.

"Miss Yao, I know you're very kind and have a sense of justice, but, please don't interfere in matters between me and Liu Meiqi, alright? Even an upright official finds it hard to settle family affairs, let alone you being an outsider, if you keep talking to me about Liu Meiqi, I might have to turn against you."

Wang Erhai was a bit annoyed by Yao Xueqin's words, so he replied with such a large pile of messages.

Yao Xueqin saw Wang Erhai's reply, the corners of her mouth curled up, and a smug smile appeared on her face.

But when replying to Wang Erhai, she pretended to be very innocent:

"Alright, it was me meddling. I actually didn't have any other thoughts. I just felt Mei Qi is quite pitiful. I was purely acting out of kindness. If I offended you, then I'm truly sorry..."

Wang Erhai replied:

"It's fine, I don't blame you. If there's anyone to blame, it's Liu Meiqi. If Liu Meiqi had even one-tenth of your reasonableness, we wouldn't have ended up like this."

Yao Xueqin said at this time:

"General Manager Wang, your mood probably isn't very good right now. How about coming out for a meal? I'll treat. Consider it my apology."

Wang Erhai was somewhat vigilant:

"You're treating me to this meal. You wouldn't be bringing Liu Meiqi along, would you?"

Yao Xueqin hurriedly said:

"No, no. Just purely to apologize to you."

Wang Erhai thought for a moment, then said:

"Alright, then you decide the time and place."

Yao Xueqin said:

"It depends on General Manager Wang's time. I'm not busy. I'm free anytime."

"Then let's do today at noon."

"What does General Manager Wang like to eat?"

"Anything works for me."

"Then let's go eat barbecue. How does that sound?"

"That works."

So the two of them agreed just like that to go eat together at noon.

In a blink, it was noon. Yao Xueqin and Wang Erhai arrived together at a barbecue restaurant.

The waiter had just brought up a few plates of sliced fresh meat when Yao Xueqin took the initiative to pick up the tongs and arranged the fresh meat on the grill.

After it was grilled, she even carefully used scissors to cut it into small pieces, then picked them up and put them in Wang Erhai's bowl.

Additionally, she took the initiative to pour tea water for Wang Erhai and mix seasonings for Wang Erhai.

Throughout the entire dining process, she kept attending to Wang Erhai.

Wang Erhai saw it with his eyes and felt moved in his heart.

In the past, when he went out to eat with Liu Meiqi, it was always him bustling about attending to Liu Meiqi.

Now going out to eat with Yao Xueqin, he actually got to enjoy Yao Xueqin's bustling service.

This truly is: without contrast, there is no harm.

"Miss Yao, among all the girls I've met, I can't say you're the most beautiful, but you're absolutely the most suitable for marriage."

Wang Erhai spoke these words from the bottom of his heart.

Yao Xueqin immediately showed a smile:

"General Manager Wang, you really know how to talk. I'm embarrassed. You might not know, I've been divorced. A divorced woman is like rotten vegetable leaves. Many men dislike them. See, even now no one wants me."

Yao Xueqin actually took the initiative to admit she had been divorced. This was something Wang Erhai also didn't expect.

"No way. A woman as gentle, considerate, and understanding as you, how could you get divorced?"

Yao Xueqin said with a smile:

"I met the wrong person. Not every man in this world thinks a woman's gentleness and virtue are merits. Most of you men are sensory animals. A woman being beautiful is their most important standard for choosing a mate."

Wang Erhai deeply agreed with this. He used to be a sensory animal too. Clearly not liking Liu Meiqi yet still being with Liu Meiqi was purely because Liu Meiqi was beautiful.

But now it's different. After experiencing several failed relationships, he's tasted beautiful women, he's also tasted virgins. Only then did he suddenly realize: for a man, the most important thing in marrying a wife isn't looks, nor the so-called first time, but being able to provide emotional value to a man, being able to give encouragement in life and work, being able to be of one heart as husband and wife, being able to get along harmoniously, and not quarreling at the drop of a hat.

"Miss Yao, what do you think of me as a man?"

Wang Erhai suddenly asked this one sentence.
