Little Wang was courageous. He wasnât scared of sleeping alone. Lying on the bed, he looked at his ceiling and deeply sighed. He rolled over and with the blanket wrapped around him, he fell asleep shortly after closing his eyes. Ruan Xiaâs idea of a child feeling all alone and scared didnât exist.
At 11 PM, Song Tingshen carefully got out of bed and put on pajama pants. Ruan Xia was exhausted and had fallen asleep a long time ago. He opened the door and went to the other bedroom. He pulled the blanket up to cover Little Wang better and sat down on the side of the bed. He watched his son for a long time before being reassured. It was only then that he went back to the master bedroom and went to sleep with Ruan Xia in his arms.

Ruan Xia opened her store before summer arrived. The store was located near Song Corporation. Song Tingshen very calmly used his authority as the CEO to support his wife by telling the administrative department that all of the desserts in the breakroom would be purchased from Ruan Xiaâs store going forward. The administrative side had this expense to begin with, and it was only natural to keep the money in the family.
Song Corporation was Ruan Xiaâs main customer. Providing the desserts for Song Corporationâs afternoon tea was enough to break even. Song Tingshen really used his power to show that he supported her.
After studying with Song Tingshen for a while, Ruan Xia paid for online advertisements. She also hired a few food bloggers to promote her store. The effect of this was very notable. Of course, Ruan Xia thought the most important thing was the taste of the cakes and other desserts. Otherwise, if someone came here to check the place out with expectations and found out that it wasnât worth coming, wouldnât her efforts be self-defeating?
The taste of the desserts were good, the environment was good, and the location was pretty good too. Those things coupled with the online promotion, and Ruan Xiaâs store was on its way to becoming a trendy place.
As the storeâs business got better, Ruan Xia became busier. She would visit the store almost every day. What happened with Qin Yuâs company had given her inspiration. She gave the pastry chefs and other employees practically the best treatment in the industry. She had once been an employee herself. It would be nonsense to talk about dreams with her employees. Discussing salary and benefits was the most practical. So, she would give her employees the treatment they want as long as they do their work well. This created a win-win situation for everyone.
Song Tingshen would occasionally come by her store when he wasnât busy at work. They didnât know he was the CEO of Song Corporation. Most people only knew the top CEOs. As for the ones that ranked below the very top ones, most people didnât know of them. They only knew that he was the bossâs husband and worked nearby.
Today, Song Tingshen came over to have afternoon tea with Ruan Xia. They sat in a corner by the window.
Ruan Xia rested her chin in her hand and happily remarked, âI feel like Iâve snatched back the site. At Song Corporation, everyone sees me as your wife⦠Mrs. Song is my label. Now that youâve come to my site, although I donât have many employees, in their mind, youâre Ruan Xiaâs husband.â

Song Tingshen savored that label and title and found that he liked the sound of it quite a bit.
