Chapter 279 – So then, what do you like about me? (2)
After they came out of the dumpling restaurant, Song Tingshen brought Ruan Xia to another place he had been before. It had already changed greatly. The old feeling from before couldn’t be found again. However, the two of them held hands and chatted with smiles the entire way. It was much more interesting than watching a movie.
His narration about the process of his entrepreneurship was like watching a fascinating TV show.
Holding her hand, Song Tingshen chuckled and said, “I used to think that the person that would hear these stories would be Little Wang when he grew up.”
He had once thought that when Little Wang was older, he would share his experiences with him. He would have never expected there would be a day when it was Ruan Xia that listened to his stories.
Ruan Xia felt slightly jealous. “Ai, sure enough, it’s a child that’s the most important to a man.”
Song Tingshen asked rhetorically, “Isn’t that true for women too? You called Little Wang several times today. You never call me that often.” His last words had a jealous tone to them.
Alright, neither of them should feel jealous over their child. They were both the same.

In the afternoon, Ruan Xia and Song Tingshen decided to visit their alma mater. Ruan Xia remembered that the original owner and Song Tingshen had graduated from the same college. When she thought it about it carefully, she realized that the original owner was also a top student. Since she was a local, her admission score requirement was lower than that of Song Tingshen, who came from another province. However, it was undeniable that she must have studied hard when she was in high school.
Ruan Xia couldn’t help sighing at the thought of that.
The original owner had set her sights on the best local college since high school. The majority of outstanding men would be in good colleges. She wanted to select someone with good prospects and knew that her family background wasn’t good enough, so she could only increase her personal value little by little. Beauty was important, but a suitable springboard and environment was even more important. There were outstanding people in average colleges, but more often that not, top-notch people would attend the very best of colleges.
If the original owner hadn’t been admitted to this college, she wouldn’t have had the chance to meet Song Tingshen, who had come back to give a speech at his alma mater. Without that intersection, she wouldn’t have applied at his company… In the end, although there were down-to-earth CEOs, they would nonetheless only interact with people in their social circles no matter how down-to-earth they were.
Ruan Xia sighed. If such a bizarre thing hadn’t happened, she would have never come into contact with someone like Song Tingshen with her aptitude and conditions.
“Why are you sighing?” Song Tingshen glanced at her.
He noticed that she would occasionally sigh a lot. Of course, he was the same. Little Wang seemed to have been infected by them. It wasn’t good for a four-year-old kid to constantly sigh and pretend to be deep.
Ruan Xia gripped his hand harder. “I keep thinking that I picked up a big bargain, and I feel guilty.”
Such a good man, such a good life. It didn’t belong to her originally. She didn’t have the original owner’s outstanding qualities.
Whether it was Duan Chi or Qin Yu, the person they really liked was the original owner. It was the original owner that attracted them.
Song Tingshen didn’t understand Ruan Xia’s words. “Picking up a big bargain, are you referring to me?”
Ruan Xia nodded. “Actually, I’m very ordinary.” She paused, “Although it’s true that I’m very beautiful now, but…”
That was someone else’s beauty.
Song Tingshen couldn’t help laughing. “Don’t get upset, but after two people have gotten along for a long time, outer appearance isn’t the attracting factor. At the very least, I’m immune to your looks.”
Ruan Xia squeezed his hand hard. “Hey! I’m so beautiful!”
How could he be immune? Shouldn’t he find her breathtaking every day? His heart should beat faster every time he sees her!
