Chapter 862: Invasion of Privacy
"Xiaoyun, can I ask you something?" Houqin suddenly asked as the car arrived in front of his house’s garage.
"What?"
"Do you not feel repulsed when you are... doing it with them?"
"Why would I? They’re my wife... I love them very much, and they love me very much. We don’t care if it’s messed up."
Houqin didn’t speak up again as they entered the garage. She could feel a tense atmosphere as they exited the car.
"Sorry. Did I offend you?"
"It’s fine. Everyone ask that same question before... Just remember, this is a secret in this family."
Houqin quickly nodded her head, accepting it as Xiaoyun opened the door to the living room for them to enter.
"Actually, Houqin. I need to ask you something important."
"W-What is it?"
"You, um... Were you fine having me cumming inside you?"
Right before Xiaoyun’s face, he could see her blush redder and redder until she finally got the courage to open her lips.
"I-I’m fine. B-But don’t do it again. I-I don’t want to get pregnant right now." Houqin shyly answered as she looked down at the floor.
"Not a problem with me."
As the two of them entered the living room, it was completely pitch black until Xiaoyun flipped on the light switch.
Looking over to the clock, it was still nighttime. They had only been out for about an hour, or one o’clock to be exact.
"You want to eat something or go back to sleep?"
"L-Let’s just go back to sleep."
Xiaoyun turned off the lights again as they headed upstairs, walking down the hall before opening his bedroom.
"Weird, I don’t remember turning on the light."
Just as he turned off the light and headed to the bed with Houqin, they both suddenly could hear something.
A low, quiet voice from behind the wall.
"Xiaoyun, you hear that?"
"Of course I do."
Xiaoyun started walking closer and closer towards the white wall. However, by the time he got close, it disappeared.
"Weird, it’s gone now." Houqin quietly murmured.
For a few seconds, his brain started brainstorming before it came up with the one and only possible explanation.
One singular reason that would explain everything.
He immediately ran over to the edge of the wall, his hand dipping into what appeared to be a small indent on the wall.
The hidden door slid right open, revealing an old room that Xiaoyun hadn’t used in a very long time.
"What the hell is going on——Huh?"
The moment Xiaoyun saw what was happening, he was a little confused. All of his wives were standing there with a bunch of monitors on the wall.
Some of the monitors showed pictures of the basement, some showed outside the house, and some even showed inside the house.
The very bedroom he was in was included as well. More importantly, a picture of the moon high up in the sky.
Why was it important?
Because right over to the side, a drone had just landed right by the window, with Nami holding onto a controller in her hand.
"H-Hey honey."
"I’m getting sleepy. Goodnight."
"Same!"
"The baby is telling me to sleep—"
Just as all of them started looking for a way out, Xiaoyun stretched out both of his arms, blocking their exit from the room.
"No one is leaving until someone tells me what the hell is going on here. Are you guys spying on me the whole time?"
"Um..."
As Leyan awkwardly scratched the back of her head, all of them immediately pointed their finger towards Leyan.
"Leyan is the one who had this idea!"
"You snitch!"
Wuli immediately made a run for it, running all the way to the other side of the room before ducking behind Shuli as a human shield.
"Leyan, you mind explaining what you’re doing?"
"I um... I’m just worried something might go wrong. Is it really that bad for us to make sure you guys are okay?"
"So you spied on us with that drone without telling us?"
This time, Leyan didn’t speak up. But the stare from Xiaoyun made Nami fold faster than anyone could react.
"Mom made me do it! I told her this was an invasion of privacy!"
"Bullshit! You’re the one who owns this drone. You could have very well kept it to yourself and never let us get our hands on it."
As the two of them continued arguing back and forth, Xiaoyun turned his attention to his other wives who were standing there in silence.
"So what are you guys doing here?"
"W-We were just invited to watch."
Shuli quietly answered, her face blushing red in embarrassment as she knew she was in the wrong.
"Y-Yeah," Yuqi answered next.
"None of you stood up and told me about it? All of you listened to Leyan and didn’t feel any guilt of conscience watching us?"
All of them fell into silence. Even Leyan and Nami stopped arguing as they shyly looked down at the floor in embarrassment.
"I’m done with you all. This was a red line that all of you crossed without caring about me at all. I’m not going to—"
"So it’s right for the husband to sneak behind our backs and have sex with his mistress while three of your wives are pregnant?"
The sudden fireback from Kate made Xiaoyun speechless. The tables had completely turned 180 degrees, as he didn’t really have a way to argue back.
Especially seeing her rubbing her belly, which had been getting bigger and bigger every month that had gone by.
"Two wrongs don’t make one right. I admit. I did something wrong. But that doesn’t excuse the fact that you guys kept this a secret from me.
This is over. You guys can kiss your—"
"Xiaoyun... I-I’m fine with it."
As Houqin pulled his sleeve and spoke up, Xiaoyun wasn’t surprised by her acceptance. His face kept up the anger.
The anger of being spied on.
"Don’t try to excuse their behavior. They’ll never learn what privacy is if they always get their way—"
"I-I ask her to do it."
Xiaoyun slowly turned around, looking over to Houqin, who shyly looked down at the floor, too afraid to look back up at him.
"You serious?"
"I... I got scared I might lose control of my body. I just wanted to make sure someone c-could..."
Houqin couldn’t finish her sentence, but it was more than enough for Xiaoyun to puzzle all the pieces in his head.
It was clear from the beginning.
All of it was a setup to have Houqin lose her first time with him tonight, and how she had gotten permission, or even a blessing, from his wives.
A chuckle came out of his mouth.
A loud laugh.
"So I’m the clown who’s dancing around the circus for you guys’ entertainment?" Xiaoyun questioned as he looked back at his wives.
"Xiaoyun... We’re doing this for your own good."
"For my own good. And I’m always the last person to know everything... I’m done. I’m done... You all can enjoy your own show."
Xiaoyun turned around, walking out of the room before heading into the hallway. They quickly followed as they watched him head downstairs.
He was now in the guest hallway. He entered one of the empty rooms before slamming the door shut, leaving them unable to see anything beyond it.
"Sister Leyan, d-did I fucked everything up?" Houqin nervously asked as her heart ached seeing him leave.
"No. You didn’t do anything wrong... He’ll get over it tomorrow."
"Mom is having a big oopsie!" Nami yelled out loud before running back to her own room and shutting her door.
"You little!"
"Mom, you’re going to need to apologize to him," Yueyue murmured before heading back to her own room.
"That’s probably the best idea."
As Yuqi commented before leaving for their room, both Tianci and Anna headed back to their room without saying a single word.
"If you need any help, tell us," Shuli murmured before grabbing Wuli’s hand, dragging her back to their room.
"Good luck."
With Kate leaving, it left only Leyan and Houqin on the staircase. Both looked at each other in an awkward silence.
"Houqin, you can sleep in his room. I’ll get everything resolved. You don’t have to worry about your relationship with him."
"Okay..."
---
"Fuck fuck fuck!"
As Xiaoyun hit the pillowcase over and over again in frustration, he just couldn’t help but feel violated.
His privacy had been completely ignored for who knows how many times. It’s almost as if they just didn’t respect him at all.
Everything around Xiaoyun made him feel like an object.
A machine with a predetermined program. A toy that they had full control over and could be manipulated into whatever they wanted.
Deep inside, Xiaoyun knew they were doing all this for his sake. He was the only one who benefited and enjoyed the moment.
But he just couldn’t help it. The feeling of powerlessness. How every choice he made had no influence over the outcome at all.
Xiaoyun was a mere dancing puppet, created for their entertainment and their entertainment only, whether he liked it or not.
