Xia Minghan was somewhat constrained.
He was even more at a loss as to what Su Ruanruan meant.
Su Ruanruan said to him, "I know you’re looking for something to do! There is a ready-made, respectable job now, but it requires going to City B. I don’t know if you’re willing?"
Xia Minghan couldn’t believe it.
Old Zhao, who was driving, cheerfully said, "What’s there not to believe! Our Miss Su knows a lot of people, she’s really capable! Mr. Xia, if you keep a good relationship with Miss Su, you’ll have a bright future!"
Xia Minghan had been grinding away for years.
He had long lost his sharp edges.
A few words from Old Zhao, and hope was rekindled in him.
Su Ruanruan took him to meet someone.
The husband of Wang Meiru.
The Song family held considerable power in City B, and he himself specialized in dealing with foreigners.
He was in great need of multilingual talents.
Xia Minghan happened to be fluent.
After Su Ruanruan’s introduction and a conversation, Song Yaodu took a liking to him.
He offered Xia Minghan a behind-the-scenes translation job.
Xia Minghan was very satisfied.
His attitude was sincere, and he looked very capable.
Song Yaodu then said to Su Ruanruan, "Ruanruan, you’ve helped me out a lot."
His wife, Wang Meiru, came over as well.
She echoed her husband, "Yaodu has been lacking talent underneath him, losing quite a bit of hair these days! I told him he’s just in his early thirties and already going bald."
She said it humorously, and Song Yaodu even indulged his wife.
Su Ruanruan then knew that their marriage was full of affection.
Coincidentally, Song Yaodu had some work at hand.
He took Xia Minghan away.
Before leaving, Xia Minghan bowed to Su Ruanruan.
He said, "Thank you, Miss Su, for giving me this opportunity."
Su Ruanruan said gently, "If you encounter any difficulties in City B, look for me! If I’m not around, find my Ninth Brother; he will surely help you."
Xia Minghan’s eyes warmed.
After they left, it was finally the turn for the two women to talk.
Su Ruanruan sipped her coffee and said with a smile, "Mr. Song treats you very well."
Wang Meiru brushed her hair.
She earnestly said, "Had I chosen to go back to my maiden home when I got the money, where would I find the life I have now?"
She held Su Ruanruan’s hand and said, "It’s all thanks to your guidance that I met Yaodu!"
Su Ruanruan didn’t take it seriously.
She said, "It’s also because Sister Meiru is beautiful and competent that you found a good marriage."
Wang Meiru, smiling, said, "Do we really have to argue about this?"
They looked at each other and laughed.
They talked in low voices, their affection even deeper than before.
While they were deeply engaged in conversation, a familiar voice came from behind.
"Ruanruan, you’re here! I’ve been looking all over for you!"
Wang Meiru stiffened.
She slowly turned around and saw that it was indeed Su Minghua.
When old acquaintances met, the atmosphere was delicate.
Su Minghua came looking for Su Ruanruan, not expecting to encounter his ex-wife.
Finally, he sat down and softly called out, "Meiru."
Wang Meiru was more gracious; she smiled slightly, "I heard you’re getting married, Minghua, congratulations."
Su Minghua was embarrassed.
Over the years, he occasionally thought of his ex-wife.
She had been very good to him during their marriage.
Yet he had let her down, and thinking of it, he always felt he owed her an apology.
Su Minghua cleared his throat and said hoarsely, "Meiru, I am sorry for what happened in the past!"
Wang Meiru’s throat tightened.
She was resolute when they divorced.
Yet in her heart, there was some regret.
Now that Su Minghua had spoken these words to her, she had no more regrets in this life.
Wang Meiru was very gracious, sincerely saying, "Let’s not talk about the past anymore."
She knew Su Ruanruan needed to discuss matters with Su Minghua.
She stood up, "I won’t be attending your wedding!"
Su Minghua promptly rose, escorting her out of the cafe. Discover more novels at n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
At their parting, when there was no one else around,
Wang Meiru bowed her head and stifled sobs, "Minghua, I can’t tell you how happy those words make me!"
