Chapter 1641: Dominating a Woman Means Dominating Her Body
Wen Xinya was somewhat shocked that Ning Shuqian suffered a miscarriage.
Ning Shuqian had joined the Wen Family over 20 years ago with absolutely nothing to her name. No one expected her to suddenly get pregnant despite her old age. It was a shocking revelation.
She was well aware that Ning Shuqian had been trying to get pregnant all these years. Nevertheless, she didn’t try to stop it but just observed coldly from the sidelines. This was because she knew Ning Shuqian was no longer able to bear children. Even if she got pregnant, she would not be able to carry the child to term.
Ning Shuqian had aged so rapidly partly because after Wen Haowen found out about her fake pregnancy and threatened to divorce her, she had used some dubious and harmful beautifying methods to regain his favor. Those methods might have been effective in the short term, but the side effects were tremendous.
Further, Ning Shuqian had also put undue pressure on her own body in her attempts to get pregnant.
If Ning Shuqian had known her various schemes and sacrifices to bear a child for the Wen Family would have turned out to be just one big joke, that another woman had gotten pregnant with Wen Haowen’s child behind her back and that the child would be born soon—who knew what she would have thought?
She would probably hate Wen Haowen and Yang Ziyu even more!
One was a murderer who had killed her own child.
The other was a shameless vixen who had s.n.a.t.c.hed her husband away. This drama had yet to reach its end.
Wen Xinya stood by the floor-length windows in the living room of the Mount Li mansion, chatting with Si Yiyan on the phone.
“Are you still in Saudi Arabia?”
She never expected for Si Yiyan to stay in Saudi Arabia for so many days.
“Yes!” Si Yiyan answered.
“Are the women in Saudi Arabia beautiful?” Wen Xinya couldn’t help asking.
But the moment she spoke those words aloud, she felt very laughable. Women were indeed creatures who worried over what they couldn’t get and then feared to lose what they finally obtained. As long as that person was not by her side, she would have all sorts of wild thoughts.
Even though she knew it was impossible.
She just couldn’t help thinking such thoughts.
“Women have a very low status in Saudi Arabia. You will seldom see any women on the streets. Even during banquets, most of the guests are men, and the few women you see are all foreigners. Further, Saudi Arabian women have to be covered from head to toe in a burqa whenever they go out.”
Si Yiyan smiled as he explained.
Saudi Arabian men were different from those in Country E.
Although women held no status in Saudi Arabian society, the men had high regard for the sanct.i.ty of marriage and valued family a lot. The relations.h.i.+p between husband and wife was very harmonious and of course, this had much to do with the s.e.xual prowess of Saudi Arabian men.
One country had this saying: Women were slaves to s.e.x!
Dominating a woman means dominating her body.
When you opened a woman’s heart, you opened her v.a.g.i.n.a. This had been scientifically proven.
Wen Xinya couldn’t help smiling sadly as she recalled the information she had read online regarding Saudi Arabia’s social customs.
She could vaguely hear some background noise through the phone.
Some Arabic-sounding words: “Ghamghm… tadhamar!”
Followed by some broken Mandarin: “It will never wilt! It will last forever!”
And then warm, loud laughter.
Wen Xinya was curious. “What are they saying?”
Si Yiyan cupped his phone to lessen the background noise and smiled as he explained. “The locals are showing me the most beautiful rose rocks from the desert. They are telling me that Saudi Arabian young men will present a desert rose to his desired girl to express his love. It represents an endless love that will never wilt.”
Si Yiyan was standing in a tent.
Although the rose rocks already looked like roses in their natural form, they could be made even lovelier after some enhancements by the most professional carvers.
The Saudi Arabian prince led him into a tent. To ingratiate themselves with him, the staff introduced him to the desert rose and even started showing off their elementary Mandarin skills.
Although they spoke rather shoddy Mandarin, they were very warm and sincere.
Wen Xinya couldn’t resist going over to her computer to check out what the desert rose looked like. “Is the desert rose very beautiful?”
“Yes, very beautiful!”
Si Yiyan surveyed the tent, which was filled with all sorts of rose stones. They looked exactly like blooming roses in all sorts of shapes and colors and possessed a magical beauty. Most were the same color as the desert, with a few in the amber color of the setting sun.
The biggest piece of amber desert rose was as tall as one meter!
It was also the most gorgeous.
“This desert rose is the largest piece excavated in recent years from the Red Sands. The rarest thing about it is its hardness—it is harder than your typical desert rose and can be preserved for a longer time. More importantly, there are over 30 different rose shapes on this rock, with the topmost one in the shape of a rose in its fullest bloom. Every petal is extremely exquisite and lifelike.”
The guide introduced the desert rose to Si Yiyan in Arabic.
Any guest of the prince was also their most honored guest.
Si Yiyan knew that a desert rose in the shape of a fully-bloomed flower was the rarest of them.
Wen Xinya didn’t ask what the person was talking about and just quietly listened. At this moment, she felt that the distance between her and Si Yiyan had shrunk.
“Over the past decade, we have invited the best carvers to make enhancements to our loveliest desert roses. Thereafter, we will send the finished stones over to the international auction.”
Si Yiyan spoke to the guide in Arabic.
Shocked, the guide was momentarily at a loss for words.
Si Yiyan walked out of the tent with his mobile phone in hand. “Why are you not speaking?”
“I am jealous!” Wen Xinya harrumphed.
“Huh?”
“You speak Arabic even better than your own Mother Tongue.”
Si Yiyan’s affinity for languages was just jaw-dropping. He said before that he was fluent in most of the Middle Eastern languages.
This made Wen Xinya, who had been so smug about knowing English and Russian, feel a sense of inferiority.
This was the difference between an elite scholar and a mediocre student.
It was actually rather stressful having such a remarkable boyfriend.
Wen Xinya felt like she still had a long, long way to go in her foreign language studies!
“Oh, I see. Well, in the future, when you wish to visit Saudi Arabia, I can be your guide.”
Si Yiyan suddenly felt like this was the very reason why he had learned so many languages.
Wen Xinya didn’t continue fussing. “How long are you intending on staying in Saudi Arabia?”
“I am leaving tonight.”
It was time to go about serious business now that his personal affairs had been settled.
Wen Xinya’s heart skipped a beat. “Take care and stay safe!”
