Chapter 12 – It wasn’t because Mr. Song felt possessive of his wife and wanted to monopolize her. It was simply because the married couple had a bad relationship. He didn’t want to talk about her or think about her. (3)
When they boarded the plane, they sat down in the first class seats that Ruan Xia had booked. There was no harm in spending extravagantly. Anyways, the novel’s Ruan Xia was wealthy. Wait, no, the novel’s Ruan Xia’s husband was the wealthy one.
Obviously, sitting in a plane seat wasn’t that interesting. Young Song Shuyan felt quite disappointed.
He had thought he would be able to exit the plane once it took off and go out into the sky. Or, at the very least, open the window and touch the clouds!

After Song Tingshen finished discussing the last details for a joint project at work, he got into a car and checked the flight number that Ruan Xia had sent him. After checking online that the flight would arrive on time, he said to his assistant, who was driving the car, “Assistant Chen, call the hotel’s reception later and book another room, preferably a room that’s next to mine.”
Assistant Chen froze in surprise for a moment. But, as an assistant, it wasn’t his place to enquire about his boss’s private affairs.
“Let’s go to the airport.” Song Tingshen looked out the window. In a flat voice that made it impossible for anyone to guess what he was feeling, he said, “My son is coming here.”
Assistant Chen had been working as Song Tingshen’s personal assistant for a few years, so he had naturally seen his boss’s so before. He was a cute and lively kid that was easy to like. Every time Song Tingshen brought his son to the office, the female secretaries would be won over by his cute personality. It seemed as if they were one step away from working together to steal him away.
But, wasn’t his boss’s son only three-years-old?
He definitely couldn’t have come here by himself. Then, who was the person that brought him here?
For a moment, a giant hole opened up in Assistant Chen’s brain. He knew that CEO Song didn’t have any close relatives.
It couldn’t be the rumored Mrs. Song, right?
Actually, he had seen Mrs. Song a few times. But, every time, she was either far away or wearing sunglasses. However, there were plenty of rumors about her going around the company.
It was rumored that four years ago, when she was still in college, she had a part-time job at the company. During that time, she captured the attention of all the men in the company. She was exceptionally beautiful. Beautiful enough to leave you feeling stunned and mesmerized. However, she had only been in the company for a short period of time, then she left because summer break ended. A short period later, she married Mr. Song and gave birth to a son.
Some people had speculated that Ruan Xia had married their boss before she had even started working at the company’s receptionist desk. It was like a grand empress going incognito to check on her husband.
There were also people that said Ruan Xia had used devious means to get pregnant and used her pregnancy to marry Mr. Song。
There were different opinions, but there was one thing that was certain. These two people were definitely married.
Strangely, Mrs. Song never appeared at the company again. During the company’s annual meetings or celebratory dinners, their boss’s wife never made an appearance. Some people said that it was because Mrs. Song was too beautiful, and Mr. Song was very possessive of his wife, so he hid her away at home…
Assistant Chen was sure that this assumption was wrong.
He had become Mr. Song’s assistant after his boss had gotten married. During the past few years, Mr. Song and his wife rarely appeared together. Also, he rarely mentioned his wife. Based on his man’s intuition, Assistant Chen felt it wasn’t because Mr. Song felt possessive of his wife and wanted to monopolize her. It was simply because the married couple had a bad relationship. He didn’t want to talk about her or think about her.
For example, it was very likely that it was Mrs. Song bringing their son to City A. However, his boss only mentioned that his son was coming. This clearly showed that this husband and wife… had a significantly worse than average marital relationship.
