Chapter 83 – The original owner was able to skillfully and easily deal with troublesome admirers, but she didn’t have confidence to do the same (1)
Exactly how crazy was this guy?
Moli shot Ruan Xia a glance. She added, “I’m just telling you that to remind you that you have a husband and son. It’ll be difficult for a divorce to happen. You don’t seem interested in that little general manager either. That guy is too overbearing and also a bit unreasonable. If that guy causes too much trouble and your husband finds out, it won’t be good.”
Ruan Xia very calmly took a sip of coffee, indicating that she had nothing to fear.
If that little general manager was actually capable of succeeding with some devious plot, why would the original owner give up on this readily available ATM to look for a husband far away and marry that other guy instead? After all, according to the novel’s timeline, this little general manager had already appeared in the original owner’s life at the beginning of the novel.
Thus, it meant that this little general manager wouldn’t be able to cause much trouble.
Even so, she wanted to kneel and bow at the original owner.
The original owner was the cruelest person that Ruan Xia had ever seen. In the context of a novel, she really liked characters like the original owner. Other than the unspeakable act of giving her son away, Ruan Xia admired the original owner’s decisive personality when it came to severing relationships.
From beginning to end, the original owner was very clear-minded. She knew what she wanted and what she could afford to want. Furthermore, she had successfully lived the life she wanted in the end. From a certain perspective, she had succeeded.
Seeing that Ruan Xia was unconcerned, Moli asked, “How come you don’t come out to play anymore? There’s a lot of people asking.”
Ruan Xia could only answer honestly, “I’m at home taking care of my son. Where would I have the free time?”
Moli was speechless for a while. She finally gave her friend a thumbs up. “It seems you’re turning your attention back to your family.”
“You can say that.” Ruan Xia suddenly lost her interest in trying out a hedonistic lifestyle. The original owner was able to skillfully and easily deal with troublesome admirers, but she didn’t have confidence to do the same. She was very satisfied with her current lifestyle and didn’t want misstep into unforeseeable misfortune.
“You’ve changed,” Moli said, “I’m almost doubting myself. Am I confusing you with someone else?”
Of course, she had changed. Who knows where the original owner had gone off to play?
Ruan Xia took out her credit card from her wallet to pay the bill. “For my adorable son, this is a happy change.”
After parting ways with Moli, Ruan Xia tossed that little general manager to the back of her mind. He was a guy that didn’t even appear in the novel and was only mentioned in the passing. There was no reason to waste her brain cells on him.
However, even though she hadn’t met this guy, she didn’t have a good impression towards his type. How much integrity could a guy that was rushing to be the third party in a married couple’s relationship have?

Following her usual schedule, Ruan Xia went to her baking class next.
Thinking that Song Tingshen had a taste for sweets, she packed up her finished products at the end of the class to take home for him to eat instead of giving it away to others to taste.
Just like she had done at the end of every other class, she uploaded photos of her finished desserts to her friends’ circle.
However, today was different. Song Tingshen had added her to his WeChat and could see what she posted on her friends’ circle.
He thought it over before liking her update.
Probably because he was a bit bored, he also commented on her update: “Looks pretty good.”
Ruan Xia replied to his comment: “The taste should be okay. I’m bringing this back home for you to eat.”
