Chapter 1053 — Openly Admitting Her Identity
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Huh?" Wu Chengtian's eyes went wide. Never in his wildest dreams had he imagined that Sun Jingyan would dare to call herself Wei Zhao's mistress right in front of Feng Xiaoxiao! Was she asking for trouble? Would Feng Xiaoxiao stand for it? Could this meal possibly go on?
Wu Chengtian could not fathom what Sun Jingyan was thinking — to openly declare herself Wei Zhao's mistress under circumstances like these?
Earlier, Wu Chengtian had assumed that Wei Zhao was two-timing, and that Sun Jingyan knew nothing of his ugly true face. So at today's dinner he meant to bring Feng Xiaoxiao and Sun Jingyan face to face; when Sun Jingyan saw that Wei Zhao had taken a new love, she would surely fly into a rage and drive him off.
But events had unfolded somewhat beyond Wu Chengtian's expectations. When Sun Jingyan saw Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao appear hand in hand before her, she seemed not to care in the least.
Of course, Wu Chengtian was not especially puzzled by this turn. To his mind, it proved one thing: Sun Jingyan herself had no real connection to Wei Zhao, and the supposed connection was merely a façade — Wei Zhao was simply a hired hand she had pressed into service.
So Wu Chengtian was delighted. Now let's see what excuse Sun Jingyan could possibly use to refuse him in the future!
But now something had happened that he had not anticipated: Sun Jingyan had actually declared herself Wei Zhao's mistress. What was going on?
"I've long heard of you!" Feng Xiaoxiao said, all seriousness, extending her hand to Sun Jingyan. "I'll be counting on Sister Jingyan to look after me from now on!"
"You two..." Wu Chengtian rubbed his eyes, almost wondering whether he was dreaming. Why was Feng Xiaoxiao not only not furious, but actually on the verge of friendly terms with Sun Jingyan? What did that mean?
"What about us, Brother Chengtian?" Feng Xiaoxiao said, feigning total innocence as she looked at him with a smile.
"You... how can you let your boyfriend take a mistress?" Wu Chengtian asked, dumbfounded, in a rush.
"Oh, and what's wrong with taking a mistress? If he hadn't taken a mistress, could I have become his girlfriend? I'm only Wei Zhao's little wife — I'm not the official first wife. Even the first wife doesn't object to his taking a little wife, so what business is it of mine to object?" Feng Xiaoxiao explained, as if it were nothing.
"Huh?" Wu Chengtian was more dumbfounded still. This Feng Xiaoxiao was not Wei Zhao's official first wife? She too was one of Wei Zhao's little wives?
But shocked as Wu Chengtian was, no one was more shocked than Sun Jingyan. Her claim to be Wei Zhao's mistress was nothing but an agreement between her and Wei Zhao — she was his mistress in name only, not in fact. And though Sun Jingyan did feel a certain fondness for Wei Zhao, until she had made up her mind, she would not take things any further with him.
What astonished her, though, was that a girl as beautiful as Feng Xiaoxiao should also be Wei Zhao's little wife. Which meant Wei Zhao had a first wife as well? How could Feng Xiaoxiao be willing to be his little wife? It hardly seemed possible — hardly seemed real.
