Chapter 12 You and Chen Fangli Broke Up?
Driving the car, they quickly arrived at the hospital.
She had stayed here for nearly a month not long ago, and had almost become familiar with this place. During the time when she could get out of bed, her favorite thing to do was to sit in the hospital lobby and observe the people coming and going.
Family members, patients, doctors. In just a short while, a new world was revealed to her.
She parked the car in the parking lot, and then entered the hospital with Li Zhenguan.
Although it was not a holiday, there were still many people in the hospital.
After getting their number, the two of them sat in the waiting area. The seats here were almost full. Li Zhenguan frowned and put on his mask.
“Not feeling well?” Wang Zhao noticed and asked in a low voice.
Li Zhenguan murmured an agreement: “A little. Too many people.”
Perhaps because of his pregnancy, he had been very sensitive to smells recently. With many people around, the air became mixed, especially since this was a hospital. There was a lingering smell of disinfectant in the air. As soon as he came into contact with it, he felt a bit uncomfortable.
Wang Zhao thought for a moment and stood up. Her eyes met Li Zhenguan’s: “I’ll go downstairs to buy you a bottle of water.”
When she stood up, Li Zhenguan subconsciously grabbed her sleeve, his exposed almond eyes looking at her as if startled.
“There’s a convenience store just downstairs in the hospital, I’ll be back soon.” Wang Zhao smiled gently, her cold temperament dissipating a little, but she inconspicuously pulled out her sleeve and brushed off the man’s hand.
Just now, his fingertips had accidentally touched her wrist.
Li Zhenguan could only murmur an agreement. His empty fingers subconsciously grasped, then withdrew his hand, clasping them together, and lowered his eyelids, his thick long eyelashes covering the emotions in his eyes.
Wang Zhao couldn’t see clearly and didn’t pay much attention. She glanced at the screen that was calling out numbers and left directly.
There was a 24-hour convenience store downstairs in the hospital. She went in and took two bottles of mineral water. When she was about to check out, she found that they had warm milk here, so she asked the cashier to get a cup of hot milk as well.
“Wang Zhao?”
However, when she was paying, someone called her name. The voice came from the side.
As soon as she looked up, she was face to face with a young woman wearing square-framed glasses and long hair, looking like a typical academic.
Wang Zhao was stunned for a moment before smiling and asking in a slightly surprised tone, “Class Monitor, why are you here?”
The woman’s name was Xu Yingchun, from Jiangcheng, and was also the original owner’s college classmate. When she was searching the room before, she had seen this person in the college graduation photo. Just in case she met someone familiar and couldn’t recognize them, she had memorized the faces in those photos and matched them with the WeChat contact information. She had also browsed through each person’s WeChat Moments.
It was also lucky that the names were printed on the back of the graduation photos from elementary school to university, allowing people to match faces with names.
“My mother is ill and hospitalized here.” Xu Yingchun said. After saying that, she looked at Wang Zhao and sized her up before smiling, “You still look the same, haven’t changed much.”
Since the first time she saw Wang Zhao in college, the other party had this neither cold nor warm appearance, making people feel at a glance that she was a lofty and proud flower, relying on that face and grades to instantly become a sensation in the entire college.
With this thought in her heart, she was also a bit curious, “What are you doing here?”
“I’m accompanying someone to come for a physical checkup.” Wang Zhao didn’t want to say too much, so she just mentioned it lightly. At the same time, she took the bag of water that the cashier had already packed and was about to leave.
Who would have thought that this college class monitor Xu Yingchun was still an enthusiastic person. Hearing her words, she said, “If you have any issues, you can contact me. My older sister works in this hospital, so it will be more convenient to arrange things then.”
Wang Zhao could tell that this was not just a polite remark, and felt more touched in her heart, so she nodded and said a thank you.
It wasn’t good for her to leave first, so she waited for the other party to finish paying, and they left together, which only took a few dozen seconds.
Walking together, it was inevitable to chat a bit and ask about each other’s developments. Of course, here it was mainly Xu Yingchun asking about her development.
She only said that she had worked at a firm before, but resigned after a year and was now looking for another job. She didn’t mention taking the civil service exam, mainly because she wasn’t the kind of person to boast everywhere about things that hadn’t been accomplished yet. She always kept a bit hidden no matter what she did.
So it was no wonder some people said she was an iceberg, with three parts on the surface and seven parts hidden underwater.
Xu Yingchun couldn’t help but sigh, “Among our so many classmates, only you and Chen Fangli are quite successful, getting offers from the Big Four right after graduation.”
At the time when they heard this news, their classmates were simply envious and jealous. It wasn’t easy to get into the Big Four. In the interviews, it was like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displaying their own magic powers.
However, in the end she found out that Wang Zhao didn’t go to Deloitte, but instead passed the graduate school exam. This news also made many classmates’ jaws drop, but in their hearts they all felt that no matter what Wang Zhao did, she would be successful.
Speaking of this, Xu Yingchun couldn’t help but ask, “How are you and Chen Fangli doing now?”
However, when Wang Zhao heard this sentence, her brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.
What do you mean how are we doing?
She keenly sensed the deep meaning in Xu Yingchun’s question, but she wasn’t clear about the relationship between the original owner and Chen Fangli. After all, she hadn’t noticed anything unusual in her phone, so she didn’t answer immediately, but was silent for a few seconds.
She knew of Chen Fangli, a classmate of the original owner.
In a photo of just thirty or forty people, those who were a little better looking and had more regular features would stand out. Not to mention Chen Fangli, who was not only good-looking, but could be said to be very handsome. With fair skin, he stood out like a crane among chickens, and was even standing in the C position. Almost the first glance at that photo, she saw this man.
She later checked the WeChat contacts on her phone and didn’t find this classmate. At that time, she thought they just weren’t familiar with each other. After all, it was very common for college classmates not to add each other on WeChat, since some people might not even get to know everyone in their class in four years.
She didn’t think too much of it at the time, but now with Xu Yingchun’s words, she couldn’t help but think more.
Was it not that they didn’t add each other on WeChat, but that they added and then deleted? Or was it because of some relationship that the two of them had a falling out?
She started to get a headache again, and her fingers moved, wanting to press her temples.
And in the few seconds of Wang Zhao’s silence, Xu Yingchun also seemed to realize something. Her eyes slowly widened as she looked at the person beside her.
“No way?” The woman was obviously very surprised, her tone even a bit exaggerated, as if she found it unbelievable that the two of them broke up, “You and Chen Fangli broke up?”
This is just a rare daily life story about a woman from a patriarchal society transmigrating into an imagined matriarchal society.

“Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!
――
This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
