The Villain’s Mother-Chapter 109: Hadn't she always been Little Wang's mother? (3)

Chapter 109 – Hadn’t she always been Little Wang’s mother? (3)

The Song’s and the Ruan’s lived in different areas. In addition, it was almost morning rush hour. Normally, it would only take half an hour by car. Today, it would take over 40 minutes.

Father Ruan and Mother Ruan had already purchased food and were waiting for their daughter and grandson to come over. Right after Little Wang came in, Mother Ruan hugged him and kissed him. She said lots of words like, “precious, good child, baby, etc.”

Ruan Xia, who had stopped at the doorway, had a layer of goosebumps.

Father Ruan held up a pair of house slippers for her and asked, “Xiaxia, why aren’t you coming in?”

“I still have stuff to do. I’ll come pick up Little Wang in the afternoon.” Ruan Xia paused before reminding, “Don’t let him have too much ice cream. He’ll get a stomachache.”

“Okay then.” Father Ruan was very reluctant to see Ruan Xia leave and insisted on going downstairs to send her off.

Like many fathers, Father Ruan wasn’t very articulate in front of his daughter and would end up saying the same old phrases again and again such as be careful when driving and don’t rush through red lights.

At the head of a flight of stairs, Ruan Xia thought it over before taking a card out of her bag and handing it to him. “This is a supermarket gift card. There’s about 5,000 yuan on it. Anyways, I won’t have any use for it. Dad, take it. Buy more delicious food with it. Don’t be so reluctant about spending money.”

Although the original owner gave several thousand yuan to her parents each month for their living expenses, Father Ruan and Mother Ruan weren’t the spendthrift type that spent all their monthly money before the month was over. They had gotten used to going hungry in their youth due to financial problems.

At this age, they had a daughter they could rely on. Their daughter gave them an allowance that was enough to cover their daily expenses, but they had only gotten more frugal. Ruan Xia had originally thought about simply increasing the money she gave them each month, but when she thought about it more, that wouldn’t stop them from being reluctant to spend money. It would be better to give them something they would definitely use such a supermarket gift card.

Father Ruan froze in surprise for a moment. He hastily tried to refuse, “It’s okay. No need. Keep it for yourself. We have money.”

“I have more of these. Little Wang’s dad gave them to me. I rarely go to the supermarket anyways. Dad, just take it.” Ruan Xia stuffed the card into his hand. Looking as if she wouldn’t accept refusal, she said, “Alright, I’m a rush for time. I have an appointment with someone. Dad, you should go back up.”

After saying this, she headed out. As she walked, she took out the car key from her bag.

Father Ruan stood in place. Looking at the gift card in his left hand, he smiled. He didn’t know how long he had been standing there when a neighbor walked into the apartment building and casually asked, “Old Ruan, why are you standing here?”

“I just sent my daughter off.” Father Ruan carefully put the card away. It felt especially easy to walk up the flight of stairs today. He even hummed as he walked.

The neighbor laughed. “Why are you happy today?”

Father Ruan very politely and proudly said, “…. Not telling you.”

Ruan Xia drove her to the mall where she was meeting her foreigner teacher. Right after parking her car and getting out, she saw a black cross-country car driving towards the empty spot right next to her. She took a few steps back and waited until the car was parked before moving. However, the owner of that car stopped before fully going into the parking spot and got out of his car. Carrying a bouquet of roses, he walked over to her.

With a confused expression, Ruan Xia looked at the young man. It took awhile for her to return to her senses.

What was he doing?

The young man presented the flowers to her with a somewhat awkward expression. “Ruan Xia, I’m going to officially pursue you starting from today. I’ve already talked with your husband about my intentions, so this can be considered a fair competition. I’m not sneaking around. I’m pursuing you in an honorable manner.”

“…”

He talked to her husband about wanting to pursue her?

Where did this idiot come from?
