Arranging Zhou Meijuan's clothes, Fang Damei earnestly said to her, "Comrade Xiao Zhou, listen to my advice. If you're dating Lin Laoer, then date him properly and don't sneak around.
If you don't want to continue with Lin Laoer, then break it off cleanly with him. Don't get entangled, it's harmful to both parties, and won't help you find someone else in the future."
Fang Damei said this with good intentions. Whether or not Zhou Meijuan was truly wronged, her reputation was ruined, and Fang Damei's words seemed to assume that Zhou Meijuan and Lin Laoer were an item.
But by saying this, Fang Damei was actually giving Zhou Meijuan two options: to be with Lin Laoer, or to break up as suggested. After all, we're not in the old days anymore when even divorces were permitted, not to mention dating.
Fang Damei had thought it through. Although she also suspected that Zhou Meijuan might be really dating Lin Laoer due to her suspicious behavior.
