Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

"Dad!"

Seeing Wang Zhanggen faint, Wang Erhai hurried over to support him.

The others were also in a fluster, rushing over to help.

The scene was in chaos.

Wang Erhai cursed at Liu Mei Qi on the other end of the phone:

"Liu Mei Qi, whatever it is, come at me. Doing this to my dad, an old man, what kind of thing are you!"

From the voice, Liu Mei Qi guessed the gist of it, so she was smug:

"I'm going to do exactly this. I'm going to anger your dad to death. What can you do about it? I wish that old thing of a dad of yours an early ascension to heaven! Goodbye! No, not goodbye — farewell forever!"

After saying this, Liu Mei Qi hung up the phone.

She had never felt this refreshed.

So after hanging up, she immediately let out a loud shout:

"Satisfying! So satisfying!"

That feeling of successful revenge vented all the grievances she had suffered ever since she got together with Wang Erhai, a feeling like a long-blocked mammary duct suddenly clearing up — it really was too satisfying!

"Mei Qi, why are you laughing so happily? Who were you on the phone with?"

Li Jiahong walked over at this moment, asking with a smile.

"When something good happens, one's spirits rise. Lately I've truly had double happiness — no, triple happiness. One: I bought a house. Two: I met my performance target, so becoming a formal employee should be no problem. Three: My enemy's dad is about to be angered to death by me. Jiahong-jie, you tell me, how could I not be happy?"

Liu Mei Qi shared her joy with Li Jiahong.

However, the next second, she couldn't laugh anymore.

"Mei Qi, there's a not-so-good thing I have to tell you..."

Li Jiahong's face carried a trace of complexity.

"What is it, Jiahong-jie? Just say it."

Liu Mei Qi was still immersed in joy, not noticing the oddness on Li Jiahong's face at all.

Li Jiahong said:

"The company recently underwent a business adjustment, and the performance requirements for new employees' probation period were adjusted along with it. Before, the probation period only required two million in performance, but starting this month, the probation period requires four million to become a formal employee."

"What?"

Hearing this, Liu Mei Qi immediately trembled.

"No way, I barely managed to complete two million in performance, and now you say it needs four million?"

Liu Mei Qi was very displeased, her emotions written all over her face.

Li Jiahong's face was full of apology:

"I'm very sorry, Mei Qi. The higher-up leaders want to adjust it this way, and I have no choice either. You also know, a small leader like me has no decision-making authority at all. At most I can only try to fight for an extra month of probation for you."

Liu Mei Qi was speechless to death:

"Two million in performance, I barely managed to complete it. Let alone four million?"

Li Jiahong spread her hands:

"If you have no confidence, then you can only finish this month and find another way out."

Liu Mei Qi couldn't swallow this anger:

"Speaking of which, how can your company be so faithless? It was agreed on two million performance, how did it suddenly get raised temporarily?"

Li Jiahong smiled bitterly:

"I think it's very bad too, but the probation contract states that the company has the right to interpret all contract clauses, so complaining now is useless."

"How can I not complain? A large part of that two million in performance was achieved by me spending my own money to buy an apartment!"

Liu Mei Qi was still wrestling with her own emotions.

"Don't tell me next month you'll want me to buy another apartment? I don't have that much money!"

Li Jiahong sighed:

"Mei Qi, I deeply sympathize with your experience. I can only say your luck is bad, you came at the wrong time, happening to run into the company's major business adjustment. Looking at the higher-up leaders, they're intentionally reducing senior salespeople, which is why they came up with such a clause. I forgot to tell you, after the new rules came out, formal employees also have performance requirements. I'm also under immense pressure."

"How much performance do formal employees need each month?"

"Also four million."

Hearing this, Liu Mei Qi immediately backed down.

"Four million a month, even if I become formal, I can't complete it!"

She couldn't swallow the anger, so in a fit of rage she made a decision:

"Forget it. I'll finish this month and quit! This place won't keep me, but another will!"

Li Jiahong hurriedly persuaded:

"Mei Qi, you don't plan to try for one more month? The probation salary isn't low either — eight thousand yuan."

But Liu Mei Qi said:

"Eight thousand yuan salary isn't enough for my expenses at all, let alone I still have five or six thousand in mortgage payments!"

Li Jiahong deeply sympathized:

"That's true. With a mortgage of five or six thousand, the salary needs to be at least over ten thousand to barely survive in Guangzhou, this big city. Then how about you start looking for a new job tomorrow? I won't ask you to bring clients anymore. Wish you find a good job."

Liu Mei Qi expressed her gratitude:

"Jiahong-jie, you're just like Xueqin — both of you are good people, both so tolerant of me, so understanding of me, thank you."

Liu Mei Qi was very confident in her own abilities.

She assumed as a matter of course that since she had just arrived in Guangzhou and managed to find a job with a monthly salary of twenty thousand, she should be able to easily find other job opportunities with a monthly salary above ten thousand.

As long as the monthly salary reached above ten thousand, she could barely break even.

So she wasn't panicked at all.

One can only say, she was still too naive after all.

She thought that after leaving Wang Erhai, her life would be a smooth road from then on, completely failing to realize how difficult, how tragic her future life would be.

A single woman with no ability to earn money, yet burdened with a huge mortgage, under the great tide of this era, was destined to have a tragic fate.

Even if the job she found this year could barely cover the mortgage, what about next year? The year after? The year after that? Ten years later?

In this society, whether male or female, once past thirty-five and still not having reached a middle-or-senior leadership position, the majority of people's value in the workplace weakens with age, until at a certain age bracket wages plummet off a cliff, even leading directly to unemployment.

If by that age bracket Liu Mei Qi still hasn't paid off the mortgage in advance, her disaster will truly begin.

Leaving aside Liu Mei Qi, let's return to the Wang Family.

Wang Zhanggen was so enraged by Liu Mei Qi's words that he fainted; Li Xiulan hurriedly fetched some medicine and gave it to Wang Zhanggen, and after a good while Wang Zhanggen only then recovered slightly.

Wang Erhai broke out in a cold sweat from fright.

If his father were to kick the bucket from anger because of the conflict between him and Liu Mei Qi, he would probably spend the rest of this life in self-reproach.

Fortunately Wang Zhanggen rallied and did not pass away on the spot.

However, both his mental state and physical condition became even worse because of it.

People are like this — you can't give them too much hope.

Give too much hope, then let that hope be shattered.

That's like blowing up a big balloon, then suddenly popping it.

The whole person's spirit and vitality will drain away in an instant.

And the child Liu Mei Qi carried was this balloon.

What Liu Mei Qi aborted was not just the fetus in her belly, but also Wang Zhanggen's spirit and vitality.

Those piercing, soul-cutting curses of hers will become a shadow Wang Zhanggen cannot shake off for a lifetime.
