Song Tingshen could be considered a rarity in his circle. There were certain CEOs, who put up the front of loving their wives and being good men, but in private, they had questionable relationships with their secretaries. Regardless of whether a man was wealthy or not, many men had the same ultimate dream; enjoying the joy of having multiple partners by having a wife at home and raising mistresses outside.

  In the past few years, despite the rumors of Song Tingshen having an extremely beautiful wife, there were still plenty of people that tried to send women Song Tingshen’s way during informal business gatherings. However, Song Tingshen would always politely decline.

  It would be nonsense to say he rejected those women because he was in love with Ruan Xia. Although he didn’t loathe Ruan Xia, he didn’t like her either. For him, other than being his legal wife and the mother of his child, there was no difference between Ruan Xia and any random female stranger on the street. Even though it was true that she was extremely beautiful, he had seen her face for four years and had already gotten used to it. He didn’t find her beauty breathtaking anymore.

  There were two reasons behind Song Tingshen’s clean and honest living. One, he naturally wanted to set a good example for his son. And two, he was afraid.

  Indulging once had resulted in an unhappy marriage. Thus, he couldn’t let himself indulge again. The moment he did that, it would only be a matter of time before he faced another consequence.

  “I can’t control how a person’s heart might change. If I give into the impulse and have someone on the outside, then one day, when I can no longer satisfy her, what will I do if she comes here to cause trouble?” Song Tingshen didn’t skirt around the issue at all with Ruan Xia. “I don’t care what you think of me. Sorry for speaking so frankly, but I only care about my son. I’m sure you don’t care about the state of our relationship either. So then, the only person that could be hurt is him. I don’t want to hurt my son.”


  Ruan Xia asked in curiosity, “You haven’t met anyone that you like in the past few years?”


  Song Tingshen shook his head. “I don’t have the time or energy for that. And you?”


  Seriously, this had to be the strangest conversation in the world!

  They were clearly a legitimate married couple, but they could calmly and without any stress chat about this topic.

  “You really won’t be angry if I have someone outside?” Ruan Xia was surprised.

  Song Tingshen looked at her in askance. “Only if that person makes a fuss in front of Little Wang, then I’ll be angry.”


  Alright, he won. She was speechless. Ruan Xia couldn’t help exclaiming in surprise. “Men from the Song family are truly very different from the average person.”


  There was nothing that needed to be said about Little Wang. He was only four years and could say words like “Mom, if you can only be happy by divorcing dad, then just get divorced. You don’t have to worry about me. It’s enough if you’re happy.”


  Song Tingshen was remarkable too…… Even if they were a plastic couple, it was still astonishing that he could tolerate his wife cheating on him.

  He was truly an indifferent person.

  Song Tingshen asked, “Would you be angry if I had someone outside?”


  Ruan Xia thought over what answer the original owner would give. “I won’t.”


  Song Tingshen’s words had sobered her up. The reason he wouldn’t get angry was because he didn’t have feelings for the original owner or her. In his heart, he didn’t see her as his wife, so he naturally had no desire to monopolize her. It was just like how she wouldn’t care if he had someone outside. The adult world had always been this simple and complicated. Each person taking what he or she wanted. At the same time, they kept everything compartmentalized.

  “However, even if I won’t get angry, I still recommend that we don’t cross that minefield.”
