Ruan Xia called Song Tingshen. He said he was already on his way.
The coworker next to her heard this and said enviously, âYour husband is coming to pick you up? Your relationship is really good.â
Ruan Xia put her phone back into her bag and smoothed her hair. She gently smiled and didnât say anything.
She had seen through it now. Most people in the company didnât know that Qin Yu was interested in her. Other than her direct manager, the HR manager that interviewed her, and the quick-minded receptionist, no one else knew. When she carefully thought about it, if everyone knew and was working together to put on this act with Qin Yu, it would be a weird version of The Truman Show.
It wasnât that Ruan Xia didnât like to sing. She just truly wasnât in the mood. And so, she quietly sat off to the side. She didnât drink any beverages, alcoholic or otherwise. She didnât even eat any fruit. She sometimes questioned if she was suffering from the paranoia of persecution. For example, she was worried that Qin Yu had drugged...
Moreover, she wanted to go to the bathroom, but she endured it because she was scared that someone would stuff her in a sack if she left the group. And then, they would take her away, and she would have to act out an imprisonment scene with Qin Yu.
Ruan Xia inwardly sighed. Sure enough, this was the aftermath of reading too many novels. She felt she was in great danger even if there was nothing wrong with Qin Yu and he hadnât done anything to her.
It wouldnât be an exaggeration to say that Ruan Xiaâs imagination had run wild. She had already thought about how to save herself after Qin Yu kidnapped her!
God really liked to give her difficult problems. She was clearly given a winner in life role, but the original ownerâs second husband was reborn. It seemed that God didnât like smooth-sailing stories.
Qin Yu was a big boss. He was sitting on the other side and looking at his phone. There werenât any untactful employees that would go over there to sneak a look at his screen. Thus, no one discovered that he was watching the same video, over and over.
It was a video from this morning. From the videoâs quality, it looked like the video was recorded by a surveillance camera. One could vaguely make out that the man in the driverâs seat first stroked the hair of the woman in the passenger seat, and then, the man leaned over and kissed the side of her face. Although it wasnât possible to see their expressions, it was possible to feel the intimacy between these two people from the short video.
Qin Yu repeatedly watched the video. Finally, he closed his eyes.
He discovered that he wasnât as calm as he thought he would be.
He was originally sure that victory was within his grasp because he knew better than any outsider the real state of Ruan Xia and Song Tingshenâs marriage. He also knew that despite being married for several years, those two were like strangers. He also knew that after that one night several years ago, Ruan Xia and Song Tingshen hadnât been intimate since then. And so, he had never been jealous of his wifeâs ex-husband.
He believed that Ruan Xia and him were the ones that were truly suitable for each other. When he had opened his eyes and discovered that he had returned to several years ago, he was excited. He knew her past events and would be able to change it. Qin Yu had it all thought out. He would stop Ruan Xia from giving away her son this time.
