Nothing happened in the next two days. The companyâs arrangements for this trip were very good-natured and didnât enforce participation in the group activities. Ruan Xia had practically stayed in the mansion all day, refusing to go out. Ultraviolet rays were so strong and the sun was so bright. No way was she going out. Even if she completely covered herself up to protect her body from the sun, she would still get tanned. Although tanned skin had become fashionable nowadays, Ruan Xia liked the original ownerâs snow white skin. Even when she was indoors, she still cautiously and conscientiously wore sunscreen and long sleeves.
Song Tingshen saw her applying sunscreen on her legs and arms. He was very puzzled. âYouâre not going out. Why are you putting on sunscreen?â
In the eyes of straight men, the sunâs rays wouldnât reach indoors and there was no need to apply so much stuff to your skin.
Ruan Xia deeply sighed. âIn order to maintain this top-level beauty, I have to spend ten times more effort and thought than ordinary people.â
Applying sunscreen was a trivial matter. She had even practically given up sweets for the sake of beauty.
Song Tingshen: â...â
Did people nowadays praise themselves like that?
Little Wang wasnât scared of getting tanned. He frequently wanted to go outside. Whenever Ruan Xia put sunscreen on him, he would think she had too much free time.
Since Ruan Xia wasnât willing to go out, Song Tingshen wasnât interested in hanging out with her coworkers. He stayed in the mansion with her and did work. This was hard on Little Wang. He constantly wanted to go outside to run around on the beach. If he wasnât naturally well-behaved and Ruan Xia and Song Tingshen werenât keeping a close eye on him, he would have run to the beach by himself in a heartbeat.
Qin Yu was living in the neighboring mansion and would come over from time to time. When the family of three was nestled on the sofa and watching a variety show to pass the time, he came over and curiously asked, âHow come you guys didnât go diving?â
Little Wang liked Qin Yu a lot and quickly answered, âMy mom doesnât want to go. She said she wonât look pretty if she gets tanned!â
Embarrassed, Ruan Xia shouted, âLittle Wang!â
Qin Yu sat down across from them and chuckled. âItâs true that the ultraviolet rays on this island are strong.â
It wasnât just Ruan Xia, even Song Tingshen felt confused after interacting with Qin Yu in the past two days. Could it be that his guess was wrong? Qin Yu hadnât done anything at all. He even rarely interacted with Ruan Xia. There was no difference between the way he treated her and the way any boss treated his employees. He didnât show the slightest trace that he thinks differently of Ruan Xia.
Little Wang acted like they were old friends and ran over to sit on the same sofa as Qin Yu. âUncle, why didnât you go out to play?â
Qin Yu ruffled Little Wangâs hair. âUncle doesnât like diving and itâs true that the sun is too strong.â
He was holding a box and Little Wang was at an age where he was curious about everything. He pointed at the beautiful and exquisite box and asked, âWhatâs this?â
Qin Yu handed the box over to Little Wang. âOpen it. See if you recognize it.â
Song Tingshen and Ruan Xia said in union, âLittle Wang, donât take Uncleâs stuff casually.â
Qin Yu smiled and said, âItâs okay. If heâs interested, just let him look.â
Although Little Wang wanted to open the box to see, he listened to his parents instructions and handed the box back to Qin Yu. Pursing his lips, he said, âI wonât look.â
âWhy?â Qin Yu smiled as he opened the box.
Ruan Xia instinctively looked at the box and was almost blinded by what she saw.
