He Jiaqing chimed in:
"Sure, I've actually thought about that... Too bad my dad is useless. He can't win against my mom. Even if he fooled around and sowed his wild oats, my mom would find out and snuff it out in the cradle."
Yan Linxi let out a soft laugh and couldn't help but vent about his own family troubles:
"My mom isn't that formidable, but my dad doesn't like girls. He only managed to give me two younger brothers from his affairs... One is seven, and the other was just born. How is that as fun as having a pretty younger sister around your age?"
"Sigh... A Bai, you should be grateful! Uncle Shi is actually one of the more restrained men in our circle. After your aunt passed away, he only got involved with one woman and only gave you one sister. Plus, after they got married, he made that woman get sterilized to prevent any possibility of her having a son."
"He's doing it to protect your status. Besides... have you ever wondered why he only brought Shi Yingluo back now?"
