The Villain's Mother

Chapter 112 – Your husband’s character really needs improvement (3)

Duan Chi wanted to chase after her, but he didn’t dare.

He knew she was very angry. He also felt at a loss. Were his actions wrong?

He just wanted to be with the person that he likes. He just wanted to put forth his best efforts because of these feelings he had for her. Was that wrong?

Since her relationship with her husband was bad, they should get divorce.

Duan Chi’s brain was a mess. On one hand, he thought Ruan Xia’s scolding was very reasonable. On the other hand, he felt that he hadn’t done anything wrong. Those two conflicting thoughts short-circuited his brain.

When Ruan Xia entered the mall, she was still feeling like today was a bad day. By the time she calmed down, she had a minor headache. If she didn’t know that Duan Chi had gone to see Song Tingshen, then it would be okay for her to do nothing. But now that she knew, should she pretend that she didn’t know anything or should she have a conversation about that with him?

Although there were no romantic feelings between them, they were still a married couple. She didn’t want him to misunderstand and think she was having an affair.

Afterall, it wasn’t pleasant to be misunderstood by someone. It didn’t matter if he cared or not, even a person with a good temperament like Song Tingshen had a bottom line.

Ruan Xia’s English teacher sent a message that there was a traffic jam on her way here, so Ruan Xia found a place to sit down and ordered a coffee and a dessert. She hesitated over whether or not she should bring this matter up with Song Tingshen.

After thinking it over, she took out her phone and sent Song Tingshen a message through WeChat. [Are you busy?]

Some things were easier said through text than face-to-face. It wasn’t surprising that modern-day people would break up through WeChat.

Song Tingshen was in a meeting. When his phone vibrated, he glanced at the screen. There was a notification that he got a message from Little Wang’s mom.

Song Tingshen normally wouldn’t look at his phone during meetings and was even less likely to respond to any messages. This time, he hesitated for a moment. For the very first time, he didn’t give his full attention to the meeting. He lowered his head and unlocked his phone. He entered WeChat’s interface and saw her message. Just like one of those students that were goofing off in class, he skillfully typed back a reply under the table while looking as if he was attentively listening to the current speaker.

Ruan Xia quickly got a reply to her message.

[What’s wrong?]

Did this mean he wasn’t busy? Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had time to reply to her message.

After contemplating for a moment, she took a deep breath, and her fair-skinned fingers typed out a message. “Did a Mr. Duan come looking for you yesterday? I’m sorry. I only found out today. I was telling the truth last time. I don’t have any extramarital relationships, that includes this Mr. Duan. I’ve only seen him a few times at dinner parties. I’m not familiar with him at all. I didn’t think he would go looking for you. I’m really sorry that I caused you trouble.”

Song Tingshen lowered his head and quickly finished reading the message.

He bent his fingers and rhythmically tapped the conference table. His brow was furrowed.

The manager that was currently presenting his report through the change in Song Tingshen’s expression was because his report wasn’t good enough. He inevitably felt nervous.

At the mall, Ruan Xia waited for Song Tingshen’s reply.

Would he believe her?

Just when she thought she wouldn’t get a reply, her phone buzzed with a notification. She quickly unlocked her phone to look at the message. After freezing in surprise for a moment from reading the message, she laughed.

[I see that he didn’t take my suggestion to visit a specialist for brain problems.]
