When I opened my eyes, I went back to the night when I forced my husband to give birth to a son.

Xiao Beiguo didn't say much, but just said, "Li Qian, we can be friends, but the premise is that you have to respect Xiao Wan. If you rely on our friendship of more than ten years to hurt Xiao Wan again and again, this friendship is over."

He didn't want to say this because it was too hurtful, especially since the person was his savior.

But he also couldn't tolerate her repeatedly hurting Su Xiaowan with words.

Li Qian pointed at Su Xiaowan and asked, "Xiao Beiguo, have you forgotten what this woman did to you before?"

"You are willing to throw away our friendship of more than ten years for her. In your heart, our friendship of more than ten years is not as important as this woman?"

"Yes, Xiaowan did have some bad things in the past, but she has corrected them, and I also did some things wrong in the past."

"No one is perfect. She is my daughter-in-law and the mother of my child. I should be more tolerant and understanding towards her."

Xiao Beiguo held Su Xiaowan's hand, silently verifying what he said.

"To me, you are my long-time friend and my savior. I have always remembered the help you and Uncle Li have given me, but that is not a reason for you to challenge my bottom line!"

"So you are willing to do anything for her, even if it means getting hurt?"

Li Qian's eyes turned red, and she asked angrily and unwillingly.

"When I am with her, no matter what happens, I am willing to face it with her. She is my wife, and I should tolerate everything about her instead of just scolding her."

"Xiao Beiguo, you were not like this before. Zhiwei has told me many times before that you want to divorce her. Don't be fooled by her appearance and forget the hurt you have suffered."

"She used to be crazy all day long in order to have a son. She used your hard-earned money to buy those so-called folk remedies. How could she have the slightest concern for you or be worthy of your kindness to her?"

"She is my wife, that's enough!" Xiao Beiguo said very seriously.

"Li Qian, I'm not as good as you think. You should let go of the past and find your own happiness again."

"Don't do these things in the future. You are a girl, and if you always stay so close to me, it will be embarrassing for your in-laws."

After Xiao Beiguo finished speaking, he smiled softly at Su Xiaowan and said, "Let's go back and have breakfast. I'm hungry."

Facing the calmness in his eyes, Su Xiaowan smiled and hummed, "Let's go, Dad and Xixi are still waiting for us at home."

The two of them walked home hand in hand as if no one was around.

Li Qian looked at the two people's backs as they talked and laughed, and clenched her hands tightly. Her nails dug into the flesh but she didn't feel any pain at all.

The chicken soup and the already cold dumplings handed to her were delicately presented, all of which seemed to be mocking her.

She kicked these things to the ground with a ferocious look on her face.

"Xiao Beiguo, I said I would marry you as my wife in this life, so you must marry me!"

"I want you to see Su Xiaowan's true face!"

On the way back, Xiao Beiguo couldn't help asking, "Xiao Wan, are you really not angry?"

"Why should I be angry?" Su Xiaowan said with a smile.

"I used to think you liked Li Qian, until you told her in person that you never liked her and only treated her as a sister. I no longer questioned your relationship."

"So you believe what I said?" The moment Xiao Beiguo saw her appear, he was still thinking in his heart how to make her believe.

"Of course I believe you. Didn't you say that we are husband and wife and we need to trust and communicate with each other?"

"In the past, we just lacked communication and were always self-centered, so we drifted further and further away from each other."

Su Xiaowan thought about her previous life. Every time there was a problem between her and Xiao Beiguo, she would get angry and they would quarrel at the slightest disagreement.

Especially after having a second daughter, there would be a small quarrel almost every day and a big quarrel every three days.

Thinking of those things, she became more determined in her heart to overcome them. Since she chose to be with Xiao Beiguo, trust is the most basic thing.

Xiao Beiguo tightened his grip, feeling very touched. "Xiao Wan, thank you."

"Why thank me? Just like you said, none of us are perfect, so how can we demand perfection from others?"

"If you want to live a good life, you shouldn't always care about things. If you can be more open-minded, have more trust and understanding, then life won't be difficult."

Xiao Beiguo hummed, "I find that you have really changed a lot. If we had communicated like this when Xixi was born, we wouldn't have quarreled all the time in those two years."

He regretted that he always kept silent and kept everything in his heart.

"Some things, if you don't experience them, how can you know if they will happen?"

Su Xiaowan thought that this would not be the case. The reason why she could figure out some things was because she had suffered a lot.

If it weren't for her more than ten years of life experience in her previous life, how could she have seen things so clearly and had the awareness she has now.

For half a month, Su Xiaowan and Xiao Beiguo were busy every day.

Even so, Su Xiaowan would stew blood-replenishing soup for Xiao Beiguo every now and then and cook light meals for him.

With her careful care, Xiao Beiguo's complexion improved visibly.

This morning, it was already the end of December.

We have to deliver the vegetables today. Su Ting and her sister-in-law have already picked and packed them.

Su Xiaowan and Xiao Beiguo rented a tractor from Uncle Li and drove it to the restaurant.

When they arrived at the restaurant and the dishes were ready, Song Nancheng pulled Xiao Beiguo and said, "You and Sister Xiaowan come together tomorrow. I will take you to a banquet and meet some local businessmen."

"I won't go. I'm not suitable for this kind of occasion." Su Xiaowan knew that this kind of banquet required a formal dress.

But she didn't.

"There's no such thing as suitable or not. You are partners of this restaurant. When the restaurant opens branches in the future, there will be more places to go. You have to get used to it first."

Song Nancheng pushed a few boxes next to him in front of her and said, "These are prepared for you. I'll ask the driver to pick you up at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

"How can this be possible?" Su Xiaowan looked at the champagne-colored dress lying in the box. Just by looking at the style, she knew that the price was not low. After all, she had bought it in her previous life in order to attend the summary banquet with Xiao Beiguo.

"These are considered as the hotel's and will be calculated when the dividends are distributed."

Xiao Beiguo's eyes lit up when he looked at the dress. This color would definitely look good on Su Xiaowan.

"Go ahead. What Nancheng said makes sense. When our business grows bigger, we will definitely have to meet all kinds of people."

Su Xiaowan nodded, "Okay, then we'll see you tomorrow afternoon."

After returning home and having lunch, Li Qian came again.

This time she did not go into the house, but stood in the yard and said to Su Xiaowan, "I have a banquet for the business circle here. You and Beiguo are doing this business, so you must also expand your business. I will take him to participate tomorrow and see if I can find a suitable supplier."

"No, we also have a party to attend tomorrow."
