Tang Shaoyang thought Li Shuang was Mengyao's big sister, then he realized those two had different surnames. One was Zhang and the other one was Li. There was no way they were blood-related sisters. However, he was even more surprised when he found out about their relationship. Li Shuang was Zhang Mengyao's sister-in-law.
Yep, Zhang Mengyao had a big brother. His name was Zhang Yimu, a Major General in the military. Then he learned as well that Zhang Yimu and Li Shuang had not divorced but Li Shuang brought her daughter and left her husband.
The reason? Zhang Yimu cheated on her wife. Yes, the Major General had a big flaw, he was a womanizer even though he had a hot wife. In the end, Tang Shaoyang found out that the saying was true. The most beautiful woman was another's woman. The saying was kind of wrong, but that was the harsh truth.
He was really confused with this Zhang Yimu. Li Shuang was not only hot, but she was very good in bed as well. She was the first girl who managed to make him come within the shortest time. Hot, beautiful with her mature charm, good in bed, and also rich. Zhang Yimu cheated before the Game started. Li Shuang was like one in a million women.
Tang Shaoyang was sitting in the room, being started by Zhang Mengyao. Li Shuang also did not dare to raise her head. She was ashamed that her man's first woman was her sister-in-law. Furthermore, she did not expect Zhang Mengyao to accept her man to have other women.
'What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?' It was very awkward in the room. Li Shuang was nervous, especially when the thing between Zhang Mengyao's brother and her ended badly. She was afraid that she would be kicked out of the harem.
"Can you tell me the reason why you take Sister Huang in?" Zhang Mengyao asked Tang Shaoyang.
"She gave herself to me. A mother with a little daughter trying to survive in this current world. It's been hard for her, and I am planning to take her to manage territory. You should know her background if she is your sister-in-law, right?" Tang Shaoyang replied calmly.
"What about Brother Yimu?" When Zhang Mengyao brought up her big brother, Li Shuang raised her head. She lost her nervousness as her eyes turned cold and stared at Zhang Mengyao. Li Shuang did not back down despite the strong aura emanated from Zhang Mengyao.
—Your Harem seems at risk to split up. One is handling the military while this one is managing your Empire's infrastructure.
Zowen's voice rang in his head. Indicating she had woken up from enlightenment. This was good news despite the awkwardness that slowly turned intense.
'You wake up? How is it? Eager to test out the new power?' Instead of mediating the two girls, he asked the Magus.
"Mengyao, you should know what happened between me and your brother. We haven't divorced legally but you should know that it's already over. If not for your family to use your family's connection to obstruct the divorce, we should have divorced already! On top of that, the legal binding is no longer working for me as the country has fallen. I am a single woman because I say so!" Li Shuang came up strong. It was a surprise as she kept showing her weak side all this time.
Zhang Mengyao opened her mouth, wanting to refute Li Shuang's claim, but she could not say anything in return. Everything her ex-sister-in-law said was true. It was not like she did not know her brother's true nature. She knew very well.
"Hah…" Zhang Mengyao let out a sigh. She could not blame Li Shuang since it was her brother. She was also a woman, it would be unfair because she was also a woman. But things really had become awkward considering their past relationship.
"You escape from another jerk only to fall to another jerk," Suddenly Mengyao said this while looking at Tang Shaoyang. He did not mind that since what she said was the truth.
"At least this jerk is responsible and reliable," Li Shuang subconsciously blurted. But soon she realized that she said something she should have not said. She covered her mouth.
Zhang Mengyao calling her man a jerk was understandable, but not for her. She gave herself to the man for her selfish desire. To gain protection for her and her daughter. Li Shuang made an apologetic expression toward Tang Shaoyang.
That was true as well. It was not something she could talk about for her brother. That jerk did not even come when her sister-in-law gave birth to his daughter. Tang Shaoyang was a little better than her brother, that was for sure.
"That's fine. It seems the problem is solved," Tang Shaoyang smiled at the two girls.
"It's not like you will throw her away if I say so," Mengyao said that while rolling her eyes at him. Li Shuang flinched slightly when she heard the last part. She thought that would happen when she found out Zhang Mengyao was her man's first woman.
"I am joking, Sister Shuang. I will not let that happen even if he wants to throw you away," Mengyao shook her head, "I understand why you left my brother, but I hope you can solve the issue with my brother."
"I don't think I can do that. It's not like you don't know what your brother's character is. If he knows I am with another man…" Li Shuang did not finish his words.
"Let's not talk about this depressing matter then," Zhang Mengyao gave up on her brother. She did not even know where her brother was now. She tried to sneak into her old house with Wen, but her parents and her brother were not there. Alive or dead, she did not know.
"What about my niece? Can I meet her now?" Zhang Mengyao asked about Jiaying.
"She's in the next room. She should be drinking her favorite strawberry milk," Tang Shaoyang took out a carton of strawberry milk and handed it to her, "Use this if you want to get closer to her."
Zhang Mengyao took the milk and headed to the next room. Li Shuang was about to follow Zhang Mengyao but her hand was pulled by Tang Shaoyang, "Where are you going, woman?"
Li Shuang fell onto Tang Shaoyang's lap as her face turned bright red, "But…" she was about to say something while glancing at Zhang Mengyao. To her surprise, Zhang Mengyao said nothing about this.
"Make sure to keep your voice low. Jiaying may hear you guys," After saying that, Zhang Mengyao closed the door. The two could hear Zhang Mengyao's voice calling Jiaying.
Li Shuang looked down at her man with her bright red cheeks. She was clearly embarrassed that the person next to the room knew the deed between her and Tang Shaoyang.
Tang Shaoyang did not give her a chance to complain as he sealed her lips with his lips. His hand then snuck into her clothes and headed toward the bouncy breasts.
A muffled moan escaped her mouth as she tried to suppress her voice. Her daughter and Zhang Mengyao were next to the room.
