Chapter 1199: Chapter 1198: Lend a Hand

"""They were all deceived by Zhou Siyu; how could they not blame Zhou Siyu?"""

"""Zhou Lanfang doesn’t dare to take any more risks now that life is bearable, not knowing what more trouble would bring."""

"""’You’re just going to accept this fate?’ Zhou Siyu said angrily, ’Think it through. If you regret it now, it’s not too late. While Lu Siyuan is here, he can help us buy our way out and set us free. If we miss this opportunity, this will be our life forever.’"""

"""’I’m here with four kids and pregnant again, where else can I go?’ Zhao Xinlan said: ’Even if we are free, what difference does it make? Won’t we just get caught and sold again? Weren’t we free when we first arrived?’"""

"""Even at this point, Zhou Siyu still couldn’t see the reality of their situation."""

"""Zhou Siyu was stunned; indeed, Zhao Xinlan was right. Among them, only a few women couldn’t really say anything, nor did they have any status."""

"""Thinking of this, she sank into despair, and seeing her like this, Zhao Xinlan said: ’Siyu, why don’t you just stay with me and live together? At least with Xiaolong around, as long as you behave, he won’t bother you too much. Now that it’s only the three of us in this foreign land, we need to stick together.’"""

"""Zhao Xinlan detested Xiaolong, but she dared not resist; she still relied on Xiaolong to live peacefully. With Siyu around, they could look out for each other, and it wouldn’t feel as lonely mentally. Plus, Xiaolong would have another outlet, so he wouldn’t always focus on her."""

"""Four kids in five years, and the fifth child on its way, she was truly afraid of having more children; she didn’t want to have any more."""

"""Zhou Siyu hesitated. She knew Zhao Xinlan’s suggestion was good, but she also feared that Zhao Xinlan would harm her."""

"""Seeing her hesitation, Zhou Lanfang quickly urged, ’Siyu, what’s there to think about at this juncture? Other than staying here, do you have a better place to go to? At least if you stay, the three of us can still see each other regularly.’"""

"""Hearing this, Zhou Siyu gritted her teeth and agreed. Zhao Xinlan breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said: ’Xiaolong’s other wives don’t live here, but they often come over. Sometimes they get physical, but as long as you appease them and avoid quarrels, they’ll just take some food and leave. Just be careful, and in a few more years, when my kids are grown, they won’t dare to be so brazen anymore.’"""

"""In such a place, Zhao Xinlan could only hope that her children would grow up and support her."""

"""’I’m not as easily bullied as I was before,’ Zhou Siyu said through clenched teeth."""

"""Zhou Lanfang warned, ’Siyu, don’t make trouble. They have relatives and friends here; as foreigners, we’re destined to be bullied. Don’t resist and spare yourself some hardship.’"""

"""As the three started planning for the future, Lu Siyuan said, ’Alright, you three decide what you want to do for yourselves! We’re leaving.’"""

"""Upon hearing this, Zhou Siyu quickly said, ’Lu Siyuan, could you do me one last favor?’"""

"""’What favor?’ Lu Siyuan frowned, Zhou Siyu was asking for too much. If it weren’t because she was a compatriot and pregnant, he wouldn’t have the patience."""

"""’I don’t have a single penny on me right now. Could you leave us some money to live on?’ Zhou Siyu knew Lu Siyuan must be very wealthy, otherwise, how could he afford to come abroad?"""

"""Considering his travel companions, none of them looked like poor folks."""

"""Lu Siyuan wasn’t stingy; he directly gave her some local currency amounting to roughly one hundred RMB, ’Take it! This is enough for you to buy back two children.’"""
