Xu Ruantang knew that the opportunity had arrived!
She smiled shyly, "I had already refused Mr. Huan, but my husband said I could give it a try. As for what kind of contract to sign, I'll take it back to him and he'll help me check it."
Wang Xiuxiu asked subconsciously, "Commander Chen Ji, right?"
Xu Ruantang gave her a strange look. "Yes."
A strange look flashed in Wang Xiuxiu's eyes, which was fleeting, but Xu Ruantang still caught it.
So he pressed further, "What's wrong? Is something amiss?"
"No, no." Wang Xiuxiu's smile was not sincere at all. She patted Xu Ruantang's shoulder and said earnestly, "Commander Chen is a very good person. Be good to him."
Xu Ruantang: "......"
The tone was off; it sounded like you were in a hospital, and the doctor looked at you, sighed, and said, "Eat whatever you want!"
That's what it means!
Xu Ruantang's heart clenched, and she almost grabbed Wang Xiuxiu and dragged her out to get to the bottom of things.
Realizing the timing was wrong, they could only endure it.
The store's interior decoration was still being prepared, so Xu Ruantang and Wang Xiuxiu didn't stay long before making an excuse to leave together.
Strolling leisurely to the bus stop, Xu Ruantang thought to herself, "It's better for women to walk together; at least I don't have to chase after them."
Wang Xiuxiu put her hand on Xu Ruantang's shoulder. She was tall and, although she was thinner than before, she was still quite robust compared to Xu Ruantang.
She said with a nonchalant laugh, "The contract is fine. Look, I've already signed it. Why are you still hesitant to sign?"
Wang Xiuxiu's eyes are like those of a female hooligan.
Xu Ruantang still wanted to get information out of her, so she clutched the contract and said with a smile, "I want to take it back and show it to Chen Ji."
Wang Xiuxiu patted her shoulder and said earnestly, "Hey, you silly girl, you know what, you're actually quite a good match for Commander Chen."
Her face was full of regret; Xu Ruantang almost exploded.
This really tests a person's mentality, okay?!
Wang Xiuxiu's face clearly said: I know the plot, but I am powerless to change it. I feel sorry for you.
What on earth is she regretting?!
"Sister Xiuxiu, is it okay if I call you that?" Xu Ruantang asked, looking up at her.
Wang Xiuxiu readily nodded, "Sure, why not? You can call me brother."
"Sister Xiuxiu, you fell so badly last time, your head bled so much, and you were a completely different person when you woke up. Did the doctor say anything about whether your brain is still okay?"
That last sentence sounds like an insult no matter how you look at it...
Fortunately, Wang Xiuxiu didn't mind. "It's okay. I haven't changed much. I was just blinded by love before, but I've come to my senses now."
This... it's illogical and tries to make it work, but you know what, it's actually quite well-made.
Once love gets involved, who dares to say anything is crazy?
People will only say that a true warrior is someone who dares to charge into battle for love.
"Well... I have a question for you, don't be angry."
Wang Xiuxiu turned to look at Xu Ruantang, raising an eyebrow. "Girl, usually saying things like that will make people angry. But I'm an exception, so feel free to say it."
"I heard that Company Commander Lu has already submitted his divorce application. Are you really getting a divorce?" Xu Ruantang wasn't actually that gossipy; she just wanted to subtly learn more about this "Wang Xiuxiu."
After all, she's the only one who can give away spoilers. If we can find out anything about Chen Ji from her, and it's not good, we can take precautions in advance.
Xu Ruantang has finally found someone she likes across two lifetimes, and she hopes he will stay healthy and live a long life no matter what.
Wang Xiuxiu didn't mince words and said directly, "Hey, it hasn't been approved yet. I was in a coma in the hospital before, and the organization, out of humanitarian considerations, has been holding it off."
"I'm awake now, but Lu Shishen said it would be at least a month later."
"So you really want to get a divorce?" Xu Ruantang realized she was getting a little agitated and quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Everyone makes mistakes. You've changed for the better now, so I can forgive you. Maybe even Company Commander Lu can."
Xu Ruantang still remembered her bet with Li Shuhe. Could it be that she really guessed wrong this time?
Wang Xiuxiu frowned as if deep in thought, then sighed after a moment, "Sigh, this matter is complicated. Forget it, let's not talk about these unhappy things. Come on, let's go home, I'm dying of heat, that fat guy just can't stand the heat."
It's a bit hard to explain. If Xu Ruantang put herself in Wang Xiuxiu's shoes, she probably wouldn't have been able to do as well.
Not only did she quickly change everyone's opinion, but now Lu Xiaozhao no longer rejects her, and she can even get on good terms with Huan Yuanliang to do business. She is a true pragmatist.
This person definitely had some strength before transmigrating into the book, unlike her, who was just a lazy college student.
The person from later generations transmigrated into the body of a fat, lazy, married woman with children, not to mention the mess she left behind, the man herself was the biggest problem.
There's something strange about it. No matter what, she's slept with the original owner and had a child with her, yet she still has to try to change his preconceived notions.
Anyway, it's wrong for him to fall in love with you, and it's also wrong for him not to fall in love with you.
Continuing to live with him is wrong, but not continuing is also wrong, since the child is still my own. It's a dilemma!
The two returned to the compound, and in the middle of the day, they saw Zhang Li wandering around outside with her big pregnant belly.
Zhang Li spotted them with her sharp eyes, walked over, and said happily, "I've been waiting for you two, and I didn't expect you to actually show up."
Xu Ruantang asked, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, it's just that you treated me to dumplings last time, so it's only fair to return the favor. You two haven't eaten yet, have you? Come on, let's go to my house, my wife is cooking today." Zhang Li said very enthusiastically.
No matter how Xu Ruantang refused, she wouldn't listen.
Thinking that it was so hot and this stalemate couldn't go on, the two exchanged a glance, and Wang Xiuxiu said, "Well then, I have to go back and pick up Xiao Zhao, and we'll come over together later."
When Wang Xiuxiu left home in the morning, she greeted Liu Xue next door and delivered some steamed walnut and date cakes to her, asking her to look after her child.
Liu Xue had suffered a lot at her hands before, but recently she kept trying to be nice to her, and Liu Xue began to change her opinion of her.
Xiao Zhao is a good child, so Liu Xue quickly agreed.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go together."
So the group went to pick up Lu Xiaozhao first, and then went to Zhang Li's house together.
Upon entering Zhang Li's main room, everyone witnessed a scene that left them speechless.
Zhang Li's eldest daughter is already in school, while her youngest daughter, who is about the same age as Lu Xiaozhao, will have to start school in a year or two.
On the sofa, an old woman lay straight, snoring loudly.
Zhang Li's second daughter, with her messy and slightly damp hair, was sweeping the floor bit by bit.
The child swept the area, then took a small step forward cautiously, glancing occasionally at the person sleeping soundly on the sofa.
Zhang Li saw her mother-in-law sleeping on the sofa, walked over and patted her, calling out, "Mom, Mom, get up."
