  A Chinese man is being forced to choose between his two wives after his first wife was found 13 years after going missing.
  
  Ren Shushao, 52, a barber in Qijiang, Chongqing, will face bigamy charges unless he divorces either Xiong Jinzhen or Cai Chengrong.
  
  Xiong disappeared from home in 1997 and Ren never saw her again until she was rescued this year, reports the Conqing Business Daily.
  
  It turned out she had been kidnapped by a neighbour who sold her on to a man in another town who in turn sold her on to another man.
  
  Earlier this year, a friend of Ren's spotted Xiong in Shijiao town and told the barber who immediately launched a successful rescue attempt.
  
  "When we finally saw each other again, we hugged together for a long time, crying," he admitted.
  
  He brought Xiong back to the home he shares with new wife Cai Chengrong who he married in 2002, thinking he would never see Xiong again.
  
  Ren said the three had managed to agree new domestic arrangements: "Each of my wives has their own room but I sleep more with my old wife, Xiong Jinzhen," he said.
  
  The two wives got along well together and his second wife, Cai, woould even cook and wash clothes for Xiong, he added.
  
  However, Li Yusheng, a local senior lawyer, said Ren had to divorce one of his wives, otherwise he would be sued for bigamy.
  
  Ren said: "I plan to divorce Cai Chengrong. However, she can continue to live with us, and we will take care of her."

  Well, I wouldn't touch either of them, to be honest.
  
  I mean, they ARE his waifus, and having to choose between them is probably an incredibly painful decision (unless he picks polygami, ftw).
  
  Though "It turned out she had been kidnapped by a neighbour who sold her on to a man in another town who in turn sold her on to another man." really tips the scale a bit for me. She's a hand me down of a hand me down of a hand me down D:

  ^ Wow you kinda sound like the guy's wife was an object.
  Anyway, it's not bad that the guy's newer and older wife isn't all angry about how their husband has more than one wife.

  It almost sounds like he does not even care for his new wife.
  

  
  I plan to divorce Cai Chengrong. However, she can continue to live with us, and we will take care of her.

  
  
  It`s like, hey baby, I love you and all, but I got my ex back, so umm...Yeah...

  A harsh way to put it.
  
  I'd rather not discriminate, but I'm sure there's a little something that gives a slight minus to a women who has been sold for other men twice in a row for the last decade compared to someone who is uh, fresh.

  (It's one of the hardest things a man can decide - picking between women. But this does not apply because both the women and the man aren't that "Visually Appealing". Dude should just keep one of them as a maiden.)

  Yeah xD, I bet what he said was not exactly the whole truth, and that there is plenty of tension in the household.
