"Even the tongue and teeth occasionally get in each other's way," Imagine saying this not to a marriage counselor, but to a man who goes by the title of 'Mistress Dispeller'. In the eighth episode of China Unseen, discover the unique phenomenon of women hiring people to get rid of mistresses, instead of divorcing their husbands.
