Chapter 1203: Several Wives?
Shen Mianmian chuckled lightly, "It makes sense that Zhou Siyu might struggle to accept the situation right away since she went abroad filled with dreams. But Zhao Xinlan’s reaction was quite unexpected; she must have felt scared in a foreign land!"
"Is there really a market for Zhou Lanfang at her age?" Yang Xiaoxi was surprised.
Lu Siyuan said, "Are you thinking too small? Zhou Lanfang is, after all, a woman not so young but still attractive." His words had a teasing tone, but considering that Zhou Lanfang was Shen Mianmian’s foster mother, Lu Siyuan didn’t say too much.
"Weren’t they crying their eyes out when you came back?" Yang Xiaoxi’s eyes sparkled, and she even thought about visiting Zhou Siyu.
"I left them some money," Lu Siyuan sighed and recounted the whole story, adding at the end, "It’s strange, really. I still can’t figure out Zhao Xinlan’s thinking; she actually invited Zhou Siyu to come back and live with her. Isn’t she just inviting competition for her husband?"
"That’s bizarre?" Yang Xiaoxi started to imagine all kinds of conflict scenarios, "Zhao Xinlan has given birth to so many sons for Xiaolong, she must have secured her position. Maybe she deceived Zhou Siyu to come back as a form of revenge for Zhou Siyu tricking her to go there? And about Zhou Siyu, she did love Xiaolong once, would Xiaolong favor the concubine over his wife?"
"What are you thinking about?" Lu Siyuan rolled his eyes, "Xiaolong already has several wives, neither of them could even count as concubines, let alone the main wife."
"Several wives?" Yang Xiaoxi was shocked, "Can he even afford that? Isn’t his family poor?"
