...
Hearing the doctor say this, Tiantian finally relaxed a bit. She held her mother’s hand and comforted her, "Mom, the doctor said it’s nothing serious. Don’t worry, just rest for a few days. I’ll take you out for a trip..."
Mrs. Tian glared at Yan Xiaobao with a hint of resentnt and interrupted Tiantian, "Tiantian, Mom’s body isn’t sick. It’s just this lingering heartache... sigh..."
Ever since Mrs. Tian found out that Tiantian was "kept" by Yan Xiaobao and beca the most despised "mistress," she couldn’t eat or sleep well. Her body wasn’t strong to begin with, and in just a few days, depression took hold and she fell ill.
At this mont, Xiao Wan stepped forward and said, "Mrs. Tian, Tiantian is living a great life now. How could that beco a heartache for you?"
"Su... Lady Su..." Mrs. Tian struggled to sit up as soon as she saw Xiao Wan. Tiantian hurriedly helped her lie back down and adjusted the hospital bed.
"Mrs. Tian, do you know ?" Xiao Wan asked curiously.
"Yes, yes!" Mrs. Tian explained excitedly, "I work at the Huilijia Supermarket under your Su Family."
"Oh my!" Xiao Wan was also surprised and imdiately said, "If I had known earlier, you wouldn’t have had to work so hard. Now we’re all family, and you won’t need to exhaust yourself anymore."
"Family?" Mrs. Tian looked at Xiao Wan in bewildernt. "You’re Lady Su... our statuses... how could we even dare to associate with you?"
"Mrs. Tian, you’re being too polite." Xiao Wan sat at the bedside, like a filial and obedient daughter, and held Mrs. Tian’s hand. She whispered softly in her ear, "Tiantian is Xiaobao’s wife, and I’m also Xiaobao’s wife. Tiantian and I are like sisters, so of course we’re family."
"..."
Mrs. Tian was completely stunned. She looked at Xiao Wan, then at Tiantian, and then at Yan Xiaobao. Her shock knew no bounds.
The number-one beauty in Jiangnan, Lady Su of the Su Family, was actually Yan Xiaobao’s wife?
And her own daughter, Tiantian, was also Yan Xiaobao’s wife?
Xiao Wan regarded Tiantian as her sister, and they were now family?
How... how could such a thing even be possible?
After being dazed for a while, Mrs. Tian suddenly held Xiao Wan’s hand tightly and bowed in apology: "Lady Su, I’m really sorry. This is all my fault for not raising Tiantian properly. She’s not hardworking and even beca your husband’s mistress, destroying your marriage... I’m deeply sorry. I apologize on Tiantian’s behalf..."
"Mrs. Tian, you misunderstand." Xiao Wan gently smiled and helped Mrs. Tian lie back down. "Tiantian isn’t a third party, nor has she destroyed my marriage. She and I are both Xiaobao’s wives, equal wives. There’s no one to bla."
"Ah? What... what does that an? Are you saying... Tiantian is, uh, like a second wife?" Mrs. Tian couldn’t comprehend and tried to understand through old-fashioned notions.
"That’s one way to put it." Xiao Wan smiled. "Actually, Tiantian and I are just the sa—we’re both my husband’s junior wives."
Mrs. Tian: "..."
Xiao Wan herself is actually Yan Xiaobao’s... junior wife?
Mrs. Tian felt as though her mind had turned into complete mush. She couldn’t tell whether she had gone mad or if the world had.
In her mind, Xiao Wan—this high and lofty "Heavenly Pride Girl"—and her own daughter together serving as wives to one man... It was more unbelievable than the sun rising from the north.
...
Even by the ti Tiantian had completed the discharge procedures, Mrs. Tian was still in a dazed state.
Leaving the hospital, Tiantian helped her mother into a car worth fourteen or fifteen million—a Porsche 918 Spyder. It was only then that Mrs. Tian began to recover a little.
"Mom, let’s go take a look at my new ho."
Faced with her daughter’s invitation, Mrs. Tian hesitated for a mont but didn’t refuse again.
The impact Xiao Wan had brought upon her today was simply too powerful, inadvertently overturning her deeply ingrained beliefs and worldview.
Her daughter Tiantian beca sisters with Xiao Wan, a "Heavenly Pride Girl"—sothing she wouldn’t have dreamt of even in her wildest imagination.
Although the idea of "two won sharing one husband" was utterly unconventional, scandalous, and embarrassing to speak of... Since even Xiao Wan, a noblewoman, didn’t mind, how could soone from their humble background have the grounds to object?
Having been busy all night and all morning with matters regarding Yan Xiaobao, Xiao Wan still had nurous issues to address within her family and company. She decided to drive Yan Xiaobao to Jiale Garden, bid him farewell, and return to the Su Family.
Yan Xiaobao and Tiantian escorted Mrs. Tian through their cozy love nest before taking her to the second lakefront villa gifted to them by Liao Qihua.
This villa’s location and furnishings were slightly less lavish, but to Mrs. Tian—who had endured a lifeti of hardship—it made no difference whatsoever.
"Mom, this is the house Xiaobao specially prepared for you. You can settle here and enjoy your later years comfortably." Tiantian lovingly clung to Yan Xiaobao, her face brimming with happiness.
With Xiao Wan’s persuasion, her mother seed to slowly accept her relationship with Yan Xiaobao, and Tiantian felt an imnse sense of relief lifting from her chest.
Mrs. Tian never dared imagine living in such a grand and luxurious house during her lifeti. She repeatedly tried to decline, saying, "No, no... This house is far too big and expensive... I can’t live here alone. Just find a random room in your house—that’ll be fine..."
"Mom..." Tiantian blushed, hesitating before speaking.
Glancing at Tiantian, who was snuggling up to Yan Xiaobao like a delicate bird, Mrs. Tian understood the reason why Xiaobao arranged a separate house for her. It was clearly so he and Tiantian could have their intimate couple’s life undisturbed. She quickly changed her tone:
"Perhaps I should move back instead. Our old house may be outdated, but I’m already used to it. As long as Tiantian is happy here, that’s all I need to feel at peace."
"That won’t do. If I’m living a luxurious life here while you endure hardship, there’s no way I’ll feel at ease!" Tiantian pleaded and finally managed to persuade her mother to settle down in the new house.
...
After lunch, Tiantian and her mother contacted a moving company and began relocating imdiately.
anwhile, Yan Xiaobao was invited by Tang Wenjun to inspect the rebuilt front yard of his villa. Joining them were Dong Yuqing and Qian Jiale.
By this ti, Tang Wenjun’s entire villa estate had undergone a drastic transformation. The square layout had been reconstructed into a perfectly circular design. Pure black and white marble transported from Xian was laid across the ground—the black and white alternating like a massive circular chess board.
At the center of the yard, a circular water pool with a diater of ten feet was crafted from marble, featuring one black and one white side representing yin and yang—forming the profound and intricate Tai Chi Pattern.
