The Villain's Mother

Chapter 45 – Don’t tell me you have a harem of three thousand beauties (2)

Everyone had come here to celebrate with Li Yuanhang. They wouldn’t keep asking Song Tingshen why he hadn’t brought his wife. This type of question was inherently annoying. One person bringing it up and causing trouble was enough. After all, everyone here knew Song Tingshen’s temper.

It had been over ten years since they had graduated from college. Some of them even had children that were attending elementary school. It wasn’t easy for them to get together, so it was more important to use this time to reminisce.

While Song Tingshen was having a wonderful time drinking with his friends, Ruan Xia had already given Little Wang a bath, and they were in bed watching cartoons.

Little Wang had settled into a very good sleeping arrangement of alternating nights. He had slept with his dad yesterday, so he would sleep with his mom today. He didn’t neglect either parent. He was like an emperor that would bestow his favors.

However, he had listened to Ruan Xia’s words. When he woke up in the morning, he wouldn’t wake his mom up. He was especially considerate in gingerly getting out of bed and leaving her room. It was exactly because of this reason that Ruan Xia didn’t mind the the chubby kid wanting to sleep with her every other night.

Little Wang went to a bilingual kindergarten, so he watched a lot of English cartoons. Since Ruan Xia was taking English-speaking classes, she watched these cartoons with him every day.

Since she had a foundation in English and now had access to one-on-one lessons with foreigner teachers, her spoken English rapidly improved.

(T/N: English is a required subject in China starting from elementary school, that’s why Ruan Xia already has a foundation in English.)

Although it was very unlikely that she would return to her original world and the original owner didn’t want to come back either, Ruan Xia also knew that what they wanted had no influence on the outcome. Thus, she wanted to improve herself while she had the opportunity.

In the past, she had complained that she didn’t have the money and free time. Now that both of those resources were available to her, if she didn’t change at all and ended up going back to her original world, she would feel that she had wasted this transmigration.

By the time that Ruan Xia heard voices coming from downstairs, Little Wang was already asleep. She guessed that Song Tingshen had come back.

She didn’t plan on going downstairs. Just as she was going to continue browsing on Weibo, someone knocked on her door. Ruan Xia reluctantly got out of bed and opened the door. Seeing that it was the housekeeper aunty, she asked, “Is something wrong?”

“Mr. Song is back. He’s drunk.”

Ruan Xia swallowed down her initial response of “Why is that my problem?” In the eyes of others, even if she and Song Tingshen didn’t have a good marital relationship, they were still a married couple. She could only nod, put on a robe, and follow the housekeeper aunty downstairs.

She recognized the man that was supporting Song Tingshen. He was Song Tingshen’s chauffeur.

Ruan Xia didn’t have any experience taking care of a drunk person.

It was the housekeeper aunty that reminded her, “Madam, you and the chauffeur should bring Mr. Song to his room so he can lie down. You should feed him some water. I’ll go make a soup that’ll help metabolize alcohol so that Mr. Song won’t have a headache when he wakes up tomorrow.

The chauffeur helped Song Tingshen upstairs and to his room without Ruan Xia’s help. The chauffeur left right after seeing his boss lying down in bed.

Looking at the drunk man, Ruan Xia sighed.

After she had struggled to take off his shoes, she asked, “Song Tingshen, Song Tingshen, can you hear me?”

The response to her question was even breathing and the smell of alcohol when he exhaled. While it wasn’t an unbearable smell, it was also a thousand miles from an enjoyable scent.

Ruan Xia didn’t know what to do with him. In his current state, there was no way she could feed him water.

Since he was asleep and didn’t show any signs of discomfort, Ruan Xia decided to let him sleep in peace. Just as she was about to leave his room, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

Ruan Xia originally decided against answering the call, but the ringtone started again after a brief moment. Ruan Xia was worried that the ringtone would wake up Song Tingshen, so she could only rummage through his pocket to get the phone out. She quickly found the phone and took it out. The caller ID on the phone showed a woman’s name – Li Jing.
