Chapter 85 – The original owner was able to skillfully and easily deal with troublesome admirers, but she didn’t have confidence to do the same (3)
Song Tingshen saw her happy and proud smile and felt perplexed again. Based on his innate impression of her, this was out-of-character for Ruan Xia. What had happened to her while he was away on a business trip in City A? Since that time, she had changed. She had become close to Little Wang and no longer went out to play. Other than going to her baking class and oral English class, she was at home most of the time. It seemed as if she had turned over a new leaf and was being a good mother.
But why?
He previously hadn’t been interested in knowing what had caused her change of heart, but now he kind of wanted to know. After all, she had been indifferent to Little Wang in the past four years. Even when their kid took the initiative of getting close to her, she wouldn’t respond much and would even find his clinginess annoying.
“Mom, I want to eat that too.” Little Wang tugged on Ruan Xia’s clothes and pitifully looked at her.
Ruan Xia looked at him in askance. “I made one for you too, but you already ate it. Once it’s eaten, that’s it.”
At the mention of this, Little Wang got angry. His chubby hands, which were stretched out, clenched into fists. “Mom, the one you made for me was so small. The one you made for dad was so big. And you only gave me one, but you gave dad several pieces. Mom, you’re biased!”
This complaint was a bit serious...
Ruan Xia had made a child-sized xue mei niang that was the size of glutinous rice dumplings sold at supermarkets. The ones she had made for Song Tingshen were slightly bigger. She hadn’t expected this chubby kid to be so observant and notice the difference.
“But you’re not as skinny as dad,” Ruan Xia answered without any guilt. “Besides, dad is an adult, and you’re a child. His portion of the food has always been bigger than yours. The doctor has said you need to control your weight. You’re the only overweight kid in your nursery class.”
Little Wang was sitting on the small sofa that was just for him. “Your heart doesn’t have me, that’s why you won’t let me eat.”
Song Tingshen, who had been the background board, lightly coughed. “Your mom is doing this for your own good. Little Wang, listen to your mom.”
Little Wang retorted, “Dad, don’t butt in. This is between me and mom. We can resolve it ourselves.”
Song Tingshen: “... Okay.”
His son was getting cooler and cooler.
Ruan Xia calmly leaned against the wall. “Do you know what will happen to your body if you eat too many sweets?”
She took out her phone and read aloud the online information, “First, you’ll get fat...”
Little Wang raised his hand. “I’m not scared of being fat. I’m already fat anyways.”
“Your bones will become porous, you’ll easily get tired, and you might even get white hair.”
Little Wang blinked. “I don’t like black hair anyways. It’s fine if my hair turns white.”
Ruan Xia: “... Okay, it’s also written on the phone that you’re more likely to get gallstones and get breast cancer if you eat too many sweets.”
Acting like the devil’s advocate, Little Wang had an indifferent attitude. “If I get gallstones, I get gallstones. Besides, you said that’ll happen if I eat too many desserts. I haven’t eaten too many sweets.”
“Song Shuyan, are you itchy for a beating today?”
Ruan Xia walked over, picked up the chubby kid, and placed him on the bigger sofa. Then, she stretched out her hands and started tickling him. The mother and child messed around, and the topic finally came to an end.
Song Tingshen, who hadn’t said much, lowered his head and looked at the xue mei niang on the plate. Thinking about what Ruan Xia had said...
Gallstones, breast cancer...
He lost his appetite for the confection. He didn’t want a part in that.
