"Rent-a-wife? Isn't that something made up in novels!" I was genuinely surprised.
"Haha, real life is far more outrageous than novels. Not only is rent-a-wife not made up, it's actually one of the most popular tourist services here." The driver began explaining to me in detail.
Rent-a-wife, means Thai girls serve as temporary wives for tourists.
Just like shared bikes in our country.
Providing rent-a-wife services are all young and beautiful local Thai girls. These girls are smart and speak one or several foreign languages.
Foreign tourists sign rent-a-wife agreements with these girls for a few days to as long as several months.
During the agreement period, during the day, these girls are the tourists' guides, companions, translators, organizing itineraries, meals, and lodging.
At night, tourists can do whatever they want with the gentle and beautiful girls, including sleeping together or playing other forbidden games.
The girls can have no objections because, during the contract period, the girls are the personal property of the guests.
Pleasing the guests is the biggest task for these girls.
If the service is unsatisfactory and the guests complain, they not only face claims for breach of contract but may also never be able to work in this field again.
Thailand is a country with a particularly large wealth gap, the poor have a hard time, and those girls choose this line of work out of helplessness.
"It's the same as going out to have fun, although it's essentially the same old story between men and women, renting a wife is fresh, has a gimmick, and the service attitude is better than those dancers in red-light districts, so it's particularly popular among male tourists. Many people come to Thailand every year to play, not for the beautiful scenery or food, but to experience this special rent-a-wife service."
The driver paused for a moment, then continued, "I've been driving a taxi for over 20 years, and every year I've seen many male tourists mysteriously disappear; their families get anxious and look for them, but in the end, they find out many men aren't missing at all, just sneaking around to experience the special rent-a-wife service."
Hearing him say this, I finally understood why, when I reported it to the police, they had such a laid-back attitude.
Did they also think Zhao Kai wasn't answering because he was having fun outside?
Was he lying to me about visiting relatives?
I really didn't want to believe that.
Although I can't talk about how much I love Zhao Kai, he is a respectable, well-educated man.
Would he actually do such scandalous things?
While comforting myself, my gaze was suddenly caught by a scene by the roadside!
I saw Zhao Kai!
He was wearing a wide-brimmed straw hat and large sunglasses, a colorful T-shirt with large shorts, the standard tourist attire.
Beside Zhao Kai was a beautiful young woman with a moderately top-notch figure and a healthy tan!
Whether it's natural talent or cosmetic help, the girl is slender, but her bust is ample, her waist like a water snake, and her hips plump as a peach.
Truly a stunner!
Zhao Kai was obviously deeply attracted to this woman too, grabbing the girl's hand and touching it all over, even guiding the girl's hand to touch his manly areas!
Even though I was tens of meters away from him, I could still clearly see Zhao Kai's lustful expression!
Like a dog in heat!
My heart suddenly went cold!
Enveloped by immense humiliation and disappointment!
Although I wasn't completely satisfied with Zhao Kai, I was serious and faithful in my relationship with him.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have suggested the trip to Thailand in the first place, to strengthen my resolve to marry him!
I didn't agree to let him touch me before marriage, but I also didn't mess around!
I had my heart set on one man, but I never pursued him, never cheated!
Who would have thought that this trip would reveal everything, show what's human and what's not!
Men!
Are all men really this shameless?
All animals that think with their lower half!
The driver saw my bitter smile and kindly advised, "Hey! Take it easy; life is meant to be lived without overthinking."
I didn't reply, paid, and got out of the car, arriving behind Zhao Kai and the woman.
Zhao Kai didn't notice my approach, holding the Thai girl: "Lani, you performed quite well last night, but you're still a bit too shy, can't let go with many positions. I have lots of Japanese instructional videos on my phone; let's study together tonight?"
The girl called Lani had a very pleasant voice: "Husband, you're so bad..."
Zhao Kai laughed heartily, shamelessly saying, "Bad? It's called men being bad makes women love them, I just like to see your little look of biting the pillow and enduring silently, I—"
"Zhao Kai, Chairman Li wants you to call him back."
I really couldn't stand Zhao Kai's lewd words and interrupted him.
"Nie Qing, why are you here?" Zhao Kai was dumbfounded when he saw me.
