As growing numbers of women suspect their husbands of cheating, Wang is on call to help save their marriages.
Speaking to one client Ms Li, she said: “The most urgent matter at hand is how to inject me organically into your family.”
Wang comes to the rescue after Ms Li found texts on her husband’s phone suggesting he was having an affair.
Instead of confronting her husband, Ms Li is employing Wang to help save her marriage.
She will befriend a cheating husband and his mistress and convince them to both break it off.
Wang is one of a growing number of “mistress dispellers” – and has been featured in a documentary by the Hong Kong filmmaker Elizabeth Lo.
In the film, Wang says: “When people come to me for help because a mistress has appeared, I can provide them with solutions to fix the problem.”
It comes amid a crisis of confidence in the institution of marriage across China.
There were fewer than 300,000 divorces back in 1978, but this jumped by 2019 to 4.7 million.
Lo said: “In Asian cultures, the mode of conflict resolution is different.
“Solving a problem and maintaining face on the surface while not poking a hole directly in the bubble or reality they live in is a form of preserving harmony.”
When she approaches the husband and mistress, Wang works subtly.
She asks Mr Li to teach her badminton and befriends the mistress at the same time.
Wang said: “When someone becomes a mistress, it’s because they feel they don’t deserve complete love.
“She’s the one who needs our help the most.”
Eventually, at his home, Wang reveals Ms Li’s suspicions to her husband when the wife is out of the room.
“He confessed everything, but you should pretend to know nothing,” Wang whispered to Mrs Li.
“I think there’s hope, but I don’t know the girl yet. I can only advise you after I see her.”
Mr Li even broke down in front of Wang at one point.
It comes after a model was hired by anxious girlfriends to test if their partners are truly loyal.
Dubbing herself the “ultimate temptation”, Lana Madison helps women catch cheating boyfriends by flirting with them to see if they’ll make a move.
Lana, 29, said: “They slide into my inbox and ask me to flirt with their boyfriend to find out if he’ll cheat.”
She added: “Spoiler alert – a lot of them will. I didn’t plan to become a real-life honey trap.
“But once a few girls online saw what I look like and what I do for work, they realised that I’m the ultimate temptation.”
