nChapter 79 – Dad, why don’t you and mom sleep together? (3)
nEven if they were legally married and it was understandable if they slept in the same bed, there was an implication if two adults slept in the same bed. Little Wang was too young to understand, but he did.
nWith this in mind, Song Tingshen said, “Different parents get along differently. It’s true that there are some parents that sleep together, but there are other parents that sleep separately because of different habits. Dad sometimes has to work very late. If your mom and I slept together, I really would be disturbing her sleep.”
n“So you’ll never sleep with mom?”
nSong Tingshen hesitated. “I don’t know.”
n“Don’t know?” Little Wang felt even more confused about the world of adults. Fortunately, he was no longer interested in this topic. Waving his hand, he said, “I’m not going to bother with you guys anymore.”
nAs long as his parents didn’t divorce and weren’t unhappy, it was okay.
nLittle Wang sincerely said, “I’ve discovered that adults are really troublesome, so I don’t want to bother with you guys. If you guys want to divorce, just tell me in advance. That’ll be enough.”
n… Little kid, why are you so cool?
nSong Tingshen was stunned. He really couldn’t believe that his four year old son would say these words. “Who said your mom and I are getting a divorce?”
n“That’s not important.” Little Wang shook his head. “Anyways, I figured things out. Whether or not you guys divorce, that’s between the two of you. I don’t want to worry about that anymore. You guys can’t even give me a clear answer on why you guys don’t sleep together and that’s such a simple question too.”
nSo, he was looking down on them?
nLittle Wang retreated after saying those words.
nSong Tingshen was left alone in the study with his thoughts thrown into disorder.
nAfter much deliberation, Song Tingshen left the study to go to Ruan Xia’s room and knocked on her door.
nRuan Xia had just finished showering and was drying her hair. When she opened the door and saw that it was Song Tingshen, she wasn’t surprised. She moved to the side to let him in.
n“Why did Little Wang think we’re getting a divorce?” Song Tingshen asked.
nRuan Xia thought it over before answering, “There are a lot of people that think we’re headed for divorce.”
nSong Tingshen: “…”
n“Actually, you don’t have to worry about it. It’s good that the kid is more sensible than we think he is.” Ruan Xia had calmed down from earlier. “If I found out that my parents are going to divorce when I was his age, I would have definitely cried and begged them to not divorce. Oh, I just found another outstanding point about Little Wang.”
nBased on Little Wang’s current development trajectory and personality, he was more likely to be the male lead than the villain of the story.
nRuan Xia paused before saying to Song Tingshen, “So, if you do want to divorce, you don’t have to worry about it too much. Even though it’s a bit selfish to say this, I don’t think children should be your entire life. If you ever meet someone you like, just tell me.”
nSong Tingshen looked at her in askance. “Are you giving me a heads-up?”
nWhy was she saying this?
nRuan Xia was somewhat flabbergasted. “You don’t have anyone else? Sorry, I was just a little curious. I didn’t mean anything by it. I wasn’t mocking you.”
nSong Tingshen returned her earlier question with a question of his own. “Do you have someone else?”
nRuan Xia: “… No.”
nSong Tingshen sighed. “I don’t have the vice of keeping a mistress.”
nRuan Xia laughed. “Vice?”
nThat word choice was truly… in line with ethical values.
