Chapter 183 - Mom and dad are playing so well together now (2)
The points in a conversation that would catch Little Wang’s attention were usually strange. Even Song Tingshen, who had known him for four years, wouldn’t be able to guess his current through process. Just like right now for example, Little Wang asked, “Dad, how did you know this?”
Song Tingshen froze in surprise. “Mom called dad.”
Sure enough, Little Wang got jealous. He harrumphed. “Mom called dad. She didn’t call me.”
Why was that point he was fixating on? But, it was obvious that was the crucial point in Little Wang’s heart.
After they got out of the car, Ruan Xia had to repeatedly promise Little Wang that she would call him too next time and wouldn't forget him before he was satisfied.
Hugging Ruan Xia’s neck, Little Wang asked, “Mom, do you like dad or do you like me?”
For lack of a better option, Ruan Xia said, “I like you and I also like dad. Doesn’t that work?”
As it turned out, a little kid could get jealous, even if the other party was his dad.
“No, you have to like me the most. Dad has to wait in the back.” The chubby kid really wanted to have first place in his mom’s heart. He didn’t want to take second place.
Song Tingshen: “...”
Although Little Wang got a bit jealous over this matter, he quickly forgot about it.
The family of three happily ate dinner. This food at this restaurant was delicious. Little Wang would have eaten the entire plate of Chinese barbequed pork if Ruan Xia hadn’t stopped him. Little Wang liked to eat meat and didn’t like to eat leafy vegetables that much. He truly wasn’t wronged for having a chubby figure.
After dinner, Ruan Xia saw there was a fruit market across from the restaurant. There weren't any parking spots on that side of the street, so she said she would come back to the restaurant’s parking lot and they’ll go home after she bought the fruit.
Song Tingshen and Little Wang didn’t have any objections. Ruan Xia didn’t even need to ask them to come with her. They took the initiative to go with her to carry her purchases.
Song Tingshen would usually pick up and hold Little Wang when they crossed a street. Although Little Wang was very obedient, he was still a little kid. The light for walking was on right now. Song Tingshen was about to cross the street with Little Wang in his arms when Little Wang suddenly lightly punched Song Tingshen’s arm.
Song Tingshen warmly asked, “What’s wrong?”
Little Wang pointed at Ruan Xia. “Dad, hold mom’s hand. Crossing the street is dangerous.”
Ruan Xia quickly said, “It’s fine for mom to walk alongside dad.”
Little Wang got angry. Like a little adult, he sternly emphasised, “Crossing the street is dangerous. Dad, hold mom’s hand!”
Ruan Xia was still trying to think of a way to fool Little Wang when Song Tingshen suddenly held her hand. There were thin calluses on his palm. She was stunned when she felt his warm touch.
Song Tingshen held Little Wang in one arm and held her hand with his other hand. Looking straight ahead, he unhurriedly crossed the street.
Ruan Xia blankly looked at him, and then she looked down at her hand. Her heart suddenly beat faster. She couldn’t even remember what she wanted to say. What did he mean by this?
Ruan Xia was in a daze all the way from when he let go of her hand and they entered the fruit supermarket.
On one hand, she wanted to persuade herself to not overthink things. After all, they had to cross the street and Song Tingshen didn’t want to waste time, so he simply held her hand because Little Wang was bugging him.
On the other hand, based on her female intuition, it didn’t seem like that was the only reason. Should she take the risk of thinking there was romantic affection behind his action?
