As a witness to this love triangle, Lan Dujuan didn't know who to comfort. She felt sorry for everyone, and as old classmates, she couldn't afford to offend anyone.
"Cherry, we've all advised you before. Although you and Simingda were first loves, those things are in the past. Now both of you have families, you should avoid suspicion. It's natural for Mudan to be angry. No woman can tolerate the scandal of her husband cheating on her during marriage. Put yourself in her shoes, we can understand Mudan's feelings."
Luo Yingtao felt ashamed of her old classmate's complaints. She smiled bitterly and said, "Du Juan, do you think I deserve this retribution? When I was young and naive, I despised Si Mingda for not having money and dated Gao Huai for two years. After graduation, we broke up because of career choices. Now, in middle age, I've been reunited with Si Mingda by some strange coincidence. He and Wang Mudan have become successful bosses, while I'm still worried about making a living and can't even afford a house. This outcome is so ironic."
"I haven't bought a house either, have I? Your problem is that you have too many desires. If you can't afford to buy a house, just rent one. There are so many migrant workers in Nanyou City, it's not like your family can't afford a house."
Lan Dujuan and her husband have been renting a house. Her husband had an affair before, but returned home under pressure from his parents. Now their relationship is only superficial.
Luo Yingtao looked at Lan Dujuan and said unconvincedly, "I just don't want to lose to Wang Mudan. Back when I was at K University, how was I not better than her? If it weren't for the burden of my family, how could I have ended up like this?"
"No one can predict what will happen in the future. The most important thing is to live well in the present. Don't contact Simingda anymore. Why make both families unhappy? Mudan has it hard too. She has to deal with business and take care of three children. We are old classmates, so we should understand her difficulties."
"Mudan has changed a lot. She's more vicious and cruel than before. Even if she forces me to separate from Simingda, she shouldn't ask for the 170,000 yuan back, right?"
Luo Yingtao could never get over the fact that Wang Mudan asked her to pay back the money. Although it was an ill-gotten gain, watching the money being debited from the account made her feel as if her heart was being cut by several knives.
"Forget it, Cherry. If it's not yours, don't force it. Cherish your marriage with Jiang Nanmu. No matter what kind of conflicts you have, at least you have a son. Your son is your greatest hope."
Lan Dujuan persuaded her earnestly, saying that as an old classmate, she also did not want Luo Yingtao to interfere in the marriage of Wang Mudan and Si Mingda. After all, such behavior would be condemned by the world.
"Now it's not just Simingda who's stopped contacting me. Wang Mudan treats me like an enemy, and even Jiang Nanmu treats me like air. He thinks that using this method to make money is despicable and has embarrassed him. He doesn't dare to divorce me, nor does he want to forgive me. If my son hadn't talked to me, I would have been left alone. I really don't know how I would have lived."
"Cherry, you need to calm down. Time will heal everything. The holidays are coming soon. Go out with Jiang Nanmu and the kids to play and relax. When Jiang Nanmu calms down, I believe he will understand your difficulties."
"Well, I will try my best to adjust my mentality. Even if it's just for my son, I will live well."
"Yes, it's good that you can think like this. In life, apart from life and death, everything else is just a scratch. You have to think positively and don't envy other people's lives. There is ash at the bottom of every family's pot, you just can't see it. Heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. You have to untie your own knot yourself. Don't dwell on it too much."
"Du Juan, thank you for your comfort! Let's get together with a few classmates after the Spring Festival. Chatting with you makes me feel much better."
"Okay, let's make an appointment then. Be happy."
"Yes, I will."
Lan Dujuan chatted with Luo Yingtao for a whole day, and they reluctantly parted ways in the evening.
