Chapter 223 – If Qin Yu was going to put on a play, then he had to commit to it (3)

Although Song Tingshen was still puzzled by her request, he didn’t want to say something wrong again, so he nodded. “Okay.”

Ruan Xia knew there were many good things about Song Tingshen, and one of those things was that he would do his best to satisfy her requests, whether they were reasonable or not. Moreover, many of those times, he wouldn’t ask superfluous questions about it.

In order to avoid losing her self-control around him, she couldn’t keep thinking about his good points.

That evening, Qin Yu didn’t appear during the dinner.

Although Song Tingshen didn’t like to socialize with strangers, he’ll still pay attention when someone talked to him. To say nothing of Little Wang, who had easily captured the hearts of his mom’s female coworkers. Others had to be convinced of his ability to flirt with girls and his predestined affinity with the opposite s*x.

Ruan Xia said to Song Tingshen, “Hubby, peel a shrimp for me. I almost cut my skin doing that yesterday. It still hurts.”

When she said that, she stretched her hand out to show him.

Song Tingshen went along with her and pulled her hand closer to carefully examine. Of course, he didn’t find any injuries. Still, he cooperated with her performance by showing a distressed expression.

Finally, Song Tingshen peeled shrimp for Ruan Xia without complaining. He didn’t eat much that dinner and spent most of it attending to Ruan Xia.

Ruan Xia happily ate the peeled shrimp and crab, extremely satisfied.

The two people’s acting skills were pretty good. Of course, they didn’t dare to throw caution to the wind by acting too sappy. After all, overcompensating would be bad too. Ruan Xia felt that she and Song Tingshen cooperated very well and had excellent rapport with each other. At the very least, there was a moment when even she couldn’t tell if they were just acting or a genuine couple.

Under the pretext of acting with her, Song Tingshen very naturally changed his address for her from Xiaxia to wifey.

Anyways, other than Ruan Xia’s manager and the receptionist, the other people in the company all thought that Ruan Xia and her husband had a very good relationship. Their son was very cute too. This family was simply an excellent example of an ideal family, making others feel envious.

After dinner, the group decided to head to the pool in the mansion. Ruan Xia was in a pretty good mood, so she brought Little Wang, who had been eager to go play in the water, to the pool.

Song Tingshen wasn’t interested, and he wasn’t willing to wear only swim trunks in front of so many people. He sat on a sofa that wasn’t far from the pool and watched them swim.

Ruan Xia actually wasn’t a good swimmer, but the water in the pool wasn’t deep, and her coworkers were also in the pool. So, she was at ease to daringly bring Little Wang to the pool to play. Children were fast learners, and it didn’t take long for Little Wang to learn to swim.

The sun didn’t set too early on the island. Song Tingshen occasionally took photos of them on his phone to record Ruan Xia and Little Wang’s happy moments. He was so focused on taking photos that it took him a while to notice that someone had sat down next to him.

“Hello,” Qin Yu politely greeted Song Tingshen, “May I ask who’s your relative here?”

Song Tingshen guessed that this was a senior executive, so he answered, “I’m Ruan Xia’s husband. My last name is Song. How should I address you?”

Qin Yu smiled, gentle and scholarly, giving a good impression. “My last name is Qin. Hello, Mr. Song.”
