Even Assistant Chen noticed that his boss was going off to pursue his dream. His boss hadnât been to work in the past few days because he was on vacation with his wife and child, and today he even left work early... Still, as a fan of CEO Song, Assistant Chen was still very happy because this meant that his bossâs relationship with his wife was getting better. Although work was important, it wasnât nearly as important as family.
When Song Tingshen parked his car in the parking garage, it was still 20 minutes before Ruan Xia would get off from her work. He had gotten here early.
By chance, he happened to see Qin Yu shortly after he parked the car.
They were considered acquaintances after all. Song Tingshen thought it over before getting out of the car and greeting Qin Yu. âCEO Qin, what a coincidence.â
Qin Yu was holding car keys. Seeing Song Tingshen, he showed a surprise expression. Soon after, he gently smiled. âYou came here to pick up your wife?â
Song Tingshen nodded. âYeah, sometimes she doesnât want to drive, so I came here to pick her up.â
âItâs rare to see that.â Qin Yu sighed. âIn todayâs society, everyone is so busy. Youâve been married for so long and still have this mindset. Thatâs really not easy.â
If the various things he read from the investigation wasnât so strange and Ruan Xiaâs behavior wasnât so odd, Song Tingshen would think his imagination had run wild. After all, Qin Yu didnât seem like he was after Ruan Xia.
Of course, if he looked at it from another angle, this person was quite terrifying. Qin Yu was able to hide himself to such a point and was in control of every subtle expression that he showed others. How many people could achieve that level?
Song Tingshen smiled. His gaze was pampering. âShe was only 20 when I met her. Thatâs too young. In the past few years, although we had a child, sheâs still a child in my heart. Everyone said itâs my blessing that she married me when she was so young. Thatâs certainly true. When I carefully think about it, work and career arenât as important as a wife and child. As men, we work hard. Isnât that just to give our wife and child a good environment?â
Qin Yu nodded very approvingly. âExactly. I worked hard to advance in my career. On one hand, it is due to my ambition, and on the other hand, itâs to give my wife the life that she wants. Iâm not embarrassed to admit it. Even if she tells me that she wants the stars in the sky, Iâll still try to think of a way to get them for her.â
... Err, isnât your wife dead?
Song Tingshen felt awkward when he heard these words.
After all, he knew from the report that Qin Yu and his deceased wife had a lackluster relationship. If she hadnât died, they might have gotten divorced eventually. Why did Qin Yu look so gentle and indulgent as soon as he talked about his wife? It didnât look like he was faking it.
Did Qin Yu have to pull out his deceased wife in order to sell his persona of a good husband?
While the two men awkwardly chatted, Ruan Xia got out of the elevator. She had left work early. After only taking a few steps, she saw Song Tingshen and Qin Yu standing together and talking.
She was too far from them and couldnât make out what they were talking about.
The little abacus in Ruan Xiaâs crackled. She trotted over and called out in an excited voice, âHusband!â
Qin Yu and Song Tingshen looked over in her direction.
Mimicking Little Wangâs normal performance, she rushed over like a small cannonball and flung herself into Song Tingshenâs arms. Song Tingshen easily accepted this surprise from life.
