Despite the wife’s strong desire to follow him and confirm her suspicions, she could never find the time because she had to take care of their child.
However, she revealed that a few days before the posting, her mother-in-law agreed to look after the child, freeing her up for a bit of detective work.
However, to the woman’s surprise, when her husband arrived on the mainland, he did not meet a mistress, but a tour guide.
After a little investigation, she found out that her husband was on a “weekend flat-viewing tour” to buy an apartment.
The wife then revealed in the post that her husband had earlier proposed that they buy a property on the mainland, but she refused because she does not want to leave Hong Kong.
This led her to wonder why her husband was pursuing the matter, and left her with a conundrum.
“Is it true that he has a second wife and he needs to buy a flat to accommodate her? I would love to ask him, but if I do, he will know I was stalking him,” the worried wife asked at the end of her post.
Her quandary was viewed tens of thousands of times online and garnered close to 100 comments.
One observer thought the poster was being paranoid: “Maybe he really wants to buy an apartment in mainland China to live in after he retires.”
Another said she should talk to her husband as soon as possible: “It’s such a big deal! You need to speak to him and find out the truth. If he is cheating on you, you should leave him.”
However, some said the wife’s paranoia was reasonable.
“It’s always odd for a married man to spend the night on the mainland regularly, whatever the reason,” said a commenter.
Another said: “He’s trying to hide his mistress in a golden house, isn’t he?”
