Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Wang Erhai stood frozen in place.

His face froze, motionless.

He still could not accept this fact.

It felt as if everything were a dream.

A nightmare.

An absurd nightmare.

This was not the real Yao Xueqin; the real Yao Xueqin loved him so much, was so considerate and gentle, so understanding!

It was impossible that at his moment of danger, for 500,000, she would watch him die without saving him!

Right, it must be a dream!

"Slap!"

Wang Erhai slapped himself hard.

Hoping this nightmare would end.

However, this nightmare did not end.

The burning sensation on his face forced him to accept the cruel reality.

This was not a dream.

This was reality.

Reality was just this cruel.

"Slap! Slap! Slap!..."

Wang Erhai slapped his face again.

Slap after slap.

Hard slaps.

This time, not to wake from this nightmare.

But to beat to death that fool Wang Erhai who believed in so-called true love.

"Sir, sir, calm down, don't do this..."

The shop boss saw Wang Erhai slapping himself nonstop, his face red and swollen, blood at the corner of his mouth, frightening those around, so he hurried over to stop him.

Wang Erhai completely ignored the shop boss's attempts to dissuade him, continuing to slap himself hard.

The shop boss had no choice but to hurry forward and grab Wang Erhai.

"Sir, don't do this in my shop; if you want to hit yourself, go outside, okay? Don't affect my business."

Hearing this, Wang Erhai finally calmed down.

He glanced at the shop boss.

As if suddenly realizing something.

He sneered:

"So, you're advising me not because you can't bear to see me harmed, but because you fear I'll affect your interests, right?"

The shop boss said nothing, tacitly admitting it.

Wang Erhai self-mockingly sighed:

"The world bustles, all for profit; the world throngs, all for gain; so-called love is merely a way to seek profit."

After saying this, Wang Erhai paid and left.

The shop boss watched his departing back, a look of surprise on his face.

He thought Wang Erhai was a neurotic.

"I run a business; fearing you'd affect my interests isn't normal? You're sick!"

The shop boss muttered, then went to greet other customers.

Wang Erhai left the shop.

He drove alone back to Shanhai Real Estate.

After seeing Yao Xueqin's true face, he was utterly disillusioned.

Utter disillusionment leaves only two possibilities.

Either die, or face death and live.

Wang Erhai at this moment was instead much calmer.

Because utter disillusionment also meant he would no longer have those chaotic stray thoughts.

Just back at Shanhai Real Estate, he found Liu Meiqi causing trouble again.

"Wang Erhai, are you finally willing to come out and see me!"

Liu Meiqi said this; clearly she had been making a scene here for quite a while.

At this time, facing Liu Meiqi, Wang Erhai was no longer as irritable and impatient as before; he seemed very calm.

"Liu Meiqi, let's go inside to talk."

Wang Erhai's emotional calm instead made Liu Meiqi feel like she'd punched empty air.

She felt Wang Erhai had changed, become very strange.

"What's wrong with you?"

Liu Meiqi asked a sentence.

Wang Erhai didn't say anything, directly walked into the office.

Liu Meiqi hurriedly followed in.

Wang Erhai closed the door, poured her a cup of tea.

Looking at this once friend, once lover, once wife.

At this time he only felt, this person was very pitiful.

Just as pitiful as him.

They each other clearly could have had many opportunities, could have gotten better results, yet because of their respective stubbornness, together walked toward the worst outcome.

"What is your demand?"

Wang Erhai looked at Liu Meiqi, opened his mouth to ask this one sentence.

"I want to remarry you."

Liu Meiqi's attitude was firm.

Wang Erhai however laughed:

"You want to remarry me, merely to snatch food from Yao Xueqin's mouth. If for the sake of contending for this one breath, I advise you not to be confused again. After all, you've already been confused once before, and the result, you also know."

"I just want to contend for this one breath! Don't give me nonsense, are you willing or not to remarry me!"

Liu Meiqi was huffing with anger, and also threatened:

"If you don't remarry, I'll come to your company every day to make trouble, let's see if you can take it!"

Liu Meiqi at this time had long been dominated by emotion in her actions.

She now was more making trouble for the sake of making trouble.

After Wang Erhai was hurt through by Yao Xueqin, instead he became thorough.

He no longer was swayed by emotion.

Only lightly said:

"You want to remarry, completely no problem, only you must consider clearly. Now's Wang Erhai, already is no longer the former Wang Erhai."

This perhaps is the difference between men and women.

Men hurt through, often become mature, become steady, become silent and few of words.

While women hurt through, often become irritable, become emotionally out of control, become frantic.

Wang Erhai continued to say:

"Not afraid to tell you the truth, this company of mine, is about to be ruined. And once the company goes bankrupt, I'll owe debts starting at a million. You, willing to follow me and suffer?"

Wang Erhai looked at Liu Meiqi, revealed a mocking cold smile.

Because he knew, Liu Meiqi and Yao Xueqin, in essence didn't have much difference.

They both merely wanted to share wealth and honor with him, simply would not share weal and woe with him.

Liu Meiqi was stunned, face revealed a trace of surprise:

"Wang Erhai, you're lying, right? Your company isn't always doing fine? And there's still Zhang Sheng backing you, how could your company possibly go bankrupt! To drive me away, you're telling such lies, right?"

Wang Erhai shook his head and smiled:

"If you don't believe, you can go ask Zhang Sheng."

Liu Meiqi naturally didn't believe, so she said:

"I'll ask right now!"

Thus she, facing Wang Erhai, dialed Zhang Sheng's phone:

"Zhang Sheng, I'll ask you one question, how is Wang Erhai's company?"

On the phone other side, immediately came Zhang Sheng's voice:

"I also don't know how it is, I only know recently all developers have terminated contracts with him. He may have offended a big shot who shouldn't be offended."

"Your Huangsheng Group also terminated contract with him?" Liu Meiqi hurriedly chased to ask.

"Mei Qi, this you mustn't blame me. I also had no choice but to do so. Everyone is terminating contracts. If I don't terminate, that means opposing that big shot Wang Erhai offended. That is to invite disaster."

Liu Meiqi hearing this, was surprised beyond measure:

"So to speak, Shanhai Real Estate really is about to go bankrupt?"

Zhang Sheng just said:

"Maybe. Me and my wife still have other matters to be busy with, so let's not chat anymore."

Finished saying this, Zhang Sheng hurriedly hung up the phone.

Liu Meiqi raised her head to look at Wang Erhai.

At this moment she finally believed Wang Erhai's words.

"You actually really are about to go bankrupt..."

Wang Erhai looked at her, face wearing mockery:

"Let's go remarry right now. Once the marriage certificate is obtained, debts directly split equally. This is the best opportunity to prove you love me, oh."
