Chapter 216 – Wait no, shouldn’t this be the thought process of a man in his early 20’s? (2)

“Really?” Little Wang immediately stood up, scurried over to his dad’s side, and hugged his dad’s arm. His voice was extremely excited as he asked, “Really, Dad?! We’re going to see Mom?!”

Song Tingshen had thought it over. Although he was very busy with work and had two meetings scheduled for tomorrow on Friday, and even though he usually viewed these sort of things as important, in the juncture, he was fine with rescheduling those meetings. After all, until he could figure out why Ruan Xia was angry, he won’t be able to fully concentrate on work. Working like this won’t be efficient. Thus, he convinced himself using various reasons that he should go see Ruan Xia. Once he came back, he could fully devote himself to work.

“Yes.” Song Tingshen nodded. “We’ll leave tomorrow morning. Could you promise Dad one thing though?”

There wasn’t anything that Little Wang couldn’t agree to. He nodded as fast as a knife chopping garlic. He thought that his dad might change his mind at any moment, so he was worried about being too slow with answering.

“For the sake of Dad’s self-esteem, I’m going to tell Mom that you threw a tantrum about wanting to see her. Can you accept that?”

He wanted to see Ruan Xia, but he didn’t want Ruan Xia to know how eager he was to see her. This showed that a man’s need for self-esteem was very high sometimes.

Little Wang glanced at Song Tingshen. Although he was young, he knew that his dad was pushing the blame onto him.

Song Tingshen added, “If you can’t accept that, then never mind. Mom will be back in a few days anyways.”

Little Wang immediately said, “I accept!”

As long as his dad could take him to see his mom, he didn’t mind being the scapegoat.

“Good, you’re so well-behaved.” Song Tingshen even made a pinky swear with Little Wang to enter into a pledge between men.

They immediately started packing their bags. Little Wang was so happy that he was about to burst into song, and there was finally a relaxed smile on Song Tingshen’s face.

Ruan Xia had a room to herself. Although she was sharing the house with her coworkers, she still kept her guard up and locked the door. She also moved a stool in front of the door. It was never wrong to be a bit more cautious when one was away from home.

The receptionist and her boyfriend were staying in the room next door, but the young couple were currently at the beach to enjoy the romantic seabreeze.

She felt as if tonight’s revelation was like being struck by lightning; she was in a daze for a very long time. Her mind was a complete mess. She wanted to concentrate to think things through, but right now, her attention was too easily distracted. Just as she was about to call Little Wang, there was a knock at her door.

She tentatively asked, “Who is it?”

“It’s me.” It was her manager’s voice.

Ruan Xia sighed in relief. She moved the stool away, opened the door, and saw her manager holding a takeout bag.

With a smile, the manager said, “I saw that you didn’t eat much earlier. You might feel uncomfortable at night with an empty stomach. I know you love beauty, so I prepared fruit. Eating a few fruits at night won’t be bad.”

In that past, Ruan Xia would have thought her manager was too thoughtful and friendly, but now... She was somewhat scared of taking the bag.

Her manager urged her, “Go on, take it. These expenses will be reimbursed by CEO Qin anyways.”

Ruan Xia wasn’t able to refuse. She turned and invited her manager to come into the room to sit for a while. She only said that to be polite, but her manager actually came in.
