Soon after they had gotten into the car, Song Tingshen, who had a strong desire to live, began to explain himself. âYou want to resign, but whether itâs the companyâs treatment or the jobâs work intensity, you havenât been harmed from either aspect. Iâm worried that the company will urge you to stay. Saying that you want to resign because you want to have a second child is the best excuse. Donât worry, I donât have any other thoughts on that matter.â
Ruan Xia was amused by his eager tone. âI know. I really get it. Thatâs the excuse I used when I told my manager today that I want to resign.â
Hearing her saying that, Song Tingshen sighed in relief. At this stage of their relationship, donât even mention having a second child. They havenât even made any big progress in their relationship. It was really worrisome.
As he thought about how Qin Yu might still be eyeing his wife, his mood worsened. He turned his head sideways to glance at Ruan Xia. He pretended to casually say, âYour CEO is pretty good. Heâs always so polite when we meet.â
âThatâs true.â Ruan Xia nodded in agreement.
It was undeniable that Qin Yu was a loyal dog in the novel. When he found out that the original owner had a child, although he was a bit sad, he still accepted it in the end. Even though he clearly knew that the original owner didnât love him, he still pampered and treasured her. Treasure. Although Qin Yu wasnât the protagonist, his character type was very popular in novels.
Song Tingshen: â...â
He quickly roused his fighting spirit and added, âI heard that his wife has passed away. Heâs still young. Itâs not outside the realm of possibility that heâll marry again.â
Song Tingshen regretted those words as soon as he said them.
He wasnât sure what he was thinking. Why did he want to test Ruan Xia like that? He should know better. Since Ruan Xia had taken the step to resign, it meant that there was nothing between her and Qin Yu.
Being doubted would wear away feelings. How could he have such thoughts?
âWhy are you so gossipy?â Ruan Xia doubtfully looked at him. âThatâs so unlike you.â
It couldnât be that Song Tingshen had noticed something was wrong, right? She thought about her actions during the past few days. It was possible that there really was something off, but Song Tingshen shouldnât connect that to Qin Yu, right?
Ruan Xia wanted to tell him everything, but she didnât know what she could say, much less where to start. Of course, there was a part of her that had wishful thinking that she could keep this a secret. As long as things hadnât reached the worst point, then she didnât need to tell Song Tingshen about it and have him come forward to solve her problem.
Song Tingshen awkwardly laughed. He clumsily changed the topic. âResigning is good too. Do you plan on looking for another job?â
Ruan Xia shook her head. âI donât know.â
She had originally thought she had found the best job for herself, but her boss ended up being Qin Yu, and of course, she couldnât wait to avoid him.
It would be so wonderful if her boss wasnât Qin Yu.
Seeing that regretful look on Ruan Xia, Song Tingshen knew what she was thinking, so he coaxed, âIf you want to work, consider working at Song Corporation. You can suggest whatever salary you want and your hours will be up to you too.â
Ruan Xia refused without even thinking about it.âThereâs no such thing as a free lunch. I wonât feel any sense of accomplishment if I earn money from you.â
Song Tingshen couldnât help laughing. âYes, yes, Bossâs Wifeâs words are right.â
Being called Bossâs Wife was enough to coax Ruan Xia.
