The women discussed among themselves.

“Wanwan, we have made up our minds. We are going to find something to do. Mrs. Han will open a dessert shop. She’s good at that. Mrs. Wan will open a children’s clothing store. I have the clubhouse, thankfully…” The ladies listed out six types of shops that they were going to open.

“Wanwan, you’ll come and support us, right?”

Lin Wan nodded. It wasn’t like she needed to be there every day. She just needed to visit the stores occasionally to support them.

Mrs. Han held onto Lin Wan’s arm. “I am good at making dessert but not as good as you. Do you mind if I write that you’re my mentor and that I was your apprentice on my CV? I’ll pay you a certain percentage from my earnings.”

“What? You don’t have to pay me. You can write whatever you want. You can even write that I learned all the baking from you. I don’t mind.”

“Thank you! I indeed learned most of the dessert types from your livestream.”

Lin Wan had never expected the ladies to come up with a career plan in a two-hour spa session. They even called the commercial complex in the neighborhood to book an appointment to see the store.

Lin Wan acted as their consultant.

Even Mrs. Wang, who already had a toy store, was thinking about opening a

restaurant.

Lin Wan’s cooking was terrible. Everyone who knew her knew that. So, when Mrs. Wang asked Lin Wan to be a food consultant, Lin Wan was baffled.

‘Mrs. Wang, you know about my cooking skills. I might ruin your restaurant.” What advice would she give when it came to cooking? Everyone who ate her food just hated it.

Mrs. Zhou laughed. “Mrs. Wang, all of us are asking for Lin Wan’s advice so you want to join in? You have to consider if Lin Wan has any expertise in the field too.”

Mrs. Wang shook her head and smiled. “Mrs. Zhou, it’s not just about cooking. Wanwan is good at baking, but she always goes out of her way to make it healthy. What I want is for her to advise me on the ingredients that would be delicious but also healthy.”

“Ah… that makes sense. Lin Wan indeed knows a lot about healthy foods. In my opinion, Mrs. Wang, you shouldn’t just open a normal restaurant. People nowadays value their health a lot. If you make dishes that are delicious but still healthy and market them in that way, I think your business will boom.”

The other ladies followed suit and also expressed their opinions. Mrs. Wang thought about it and decided to open a healthy food snack shop instead of a full-blown restaurant.

“Alright. Let’s make a promise. We are sisters from now on. We’ll try to help whenever someone needs help from this group. No matter how much we can offer, we’ll try to be there for each other,” said Mrs. Zhou.

“Wanwan, you’re the most popular in the Circle of Madams group chat right now. If you need any help in the future, just text and we’ll be there. Right, sisters?”

“Yes! Just say the word!”

“Thank you, everyone,” Lin Wan smiled.

She felt sorry for the ladies and angry at their husbands. How could someone cheat on people as precious as these?

When they returned home, Mrs. Han asked Lin Wan to come over to her place.

It was Lin Wan’s first time visiting a neighbor’s house.

The villas in Royal Water Bay were similar on the outside. However, the feel of the place and the decorations were completely different on the inside.

Shelly remained silent. In fact, she knew that Nox had always had the best of everything since he was young, so this kind of room was not up to his standard.

She told Lin Wan to have a seat while she made her a cup of honey grapefruit tea. She then put some snacks in a bowl and offered them to Lin Wan.

“Here, Lin Wan, please don’t feel like a stranger and make yourself at home.”

“Mrs. Han, you didn’t need to make the tea.”

“Call me Xiaofang. I’m about the same age as you. These biscuits are from Hexi. They’re very crispy. Try them.” Mrs. Han opened a bag of biscuits and offered her one.

“Thank you so much,” said Lin Wan.

Lin Wan pulled Xiaofang down on the sofa because Xiaofang was busy running around and offering her various snacks to try. “If you treat me so formally, I won’t come here again.”

Xiaofang laughed. “Alright. I wanted to ask you something…’

“Go ahead.”

“All the ladies were there that time, so I couldn’t muster up the courage to ask you… Aren’t you and Mr. Li planning to have a baby?”

Xiaofang wanted to have a baby, but her husband wasn’t willing.

“I already have three children. Why would I need more?”

“Wanwan, I understand, but those aren’t your biological children. It’s safer to have your own. I know Mr. Li is good to you now, but you never know how a man might change. If you have your own baby…”

Lin Wan didn’t agree. If someone couldn’t trust their partner enough to stay with them, they shouldn’t even be thinking about children. Children weren’t band-aids that could be slapped on bad marriages to hold the parents together.

Lin Wan tried to be as discreet as possible. “Why should I be worried about whether Mr. Li will have a change of heart? I mean… I’m younger than him, and I don’t have to depend on him financially. I don’t think I should worry and rush to have a baby. He should be worried instead.”

Xiaofang was deep in thought. “Wanwan, I finally know why everyone thinks you’re wise and seeks your advice. Your way of thinking is so different from ours. You’re right. Why should we live in fear of someone abandoning us when we can build our own careers and stand on our own feet?”

They talked for almost half an hour. Lin Wan felt tired, so she made an excuse to return home.

That day, in the Circle of Madams group chat, one of the ladies sent a picture. Lin Wan knew that it would be a picture with inspiring words written on it. She didn’t even check.

After Lin Wan returned home, she had some porridge and lay on the bed.

Li Yanchen had sent her a message during lunch. “Honey, do you want to go out for a movie tomorrow? I can probably get off work around 6.”

Lin Wan sent him a short voice message. “I’ll buy tickets for 7 then.”

Lin Wan placed her phone on the bedside table. She kept thinking about what the women had said about their husbands.

Lin Wan wished that she could tell these women to stand up for themselves and not tolerate an unhappy marriage. They were all young, beautiful, and driven. They shouldn’t give up on their hobbies and careers just because the men in their lives were assh*les.

She was also grateful for Li Yanchen. He was always so supportive of her hobbies and her career.

Lin Wan sent him a text. “Hubby, you’re the best person in the world. I realized how lucky I am to have you. Thank you for always supporting me and being there for me.”

“Honey, what’s wrong?” Li Yanchen replied immediately.

Lin Wan had never sounded this emotional before, so he was worried.

“Sh*t up and work hard for your children and your wife. Don’t be on your phone now.. Finish your work quickly!”
