The Villain's Mother

Chapter 64 – Why did he want to talk to her right now? (3)

He offered her a condo and then a car. It left her feeling dizzy.

He was a lot more generous than the overbearing CEOs she saw on TV!

Having a husband that was generous and willing to spend money – wait no, he was going to be an ex-husband soon – was pretty good too.

While it was true there was no such thing as a free lunch, Ruan Xia quickly recovered from her gut reaction of money-focused vigilance. Song Tingshen didn’t need to curry favor with her at all; she was currently financially dependent on him. So then, there had to be another reason for his strange behavior today. Even if she used her toes instead of her brain to think, she knew that the reason had to be related to Little Wang.

“No thanks, my car is still new.” Although Ruan Xia was a bit greedy and it was hard for her to resist this sort of temptation, she felt that she already had more than enough. It was one thing to go on a shopping spree and have Song Tingshen pay for it, but letting him buy her a new luxury car... she would feel guilty. Even though Song Tingshen was rich, his wealth didn’t come from a windfall.

What she said was also true. The car under her name was fairly new. It had only been driven a few times. It really would be too wasteful to replace it with another new car. Her requirement for a car wasn’t high to begin with. As long as the car was in working order, she was fine with it. She had been perfectly happy driving her second-hand car before transmigrating.

Song Tingshen fell silent again.

He really didn’t know what to buy for her. He didn’t have much experience with relationships before and after he married Ruan Xia. He had devoted himself to his career. Their mutually respectful but distant marriage didn’t give him any experience in guessing how a woman’s mind worked.

She didn’t want another condo, and she didn’t want to replace her car either. Clothes and shoes had been brought today...

Just as Song Tingshen was preparing to offer diamond jewelry, Ruan Xia rushed to say something before him. “Um, I’m so sweaty and sticky. I want to go take a shower. If there’s nothing else, I’m going back to my room.”

She didn’t know what other horribly tempting item Song Tingshen was going to offer up next, so she could only retreat for now. She wasn’t sure if she would be able to resist his next offer.

Song Tingshen looked awkward. “En... okay.”

Ruan Xia went back to her room, got a pair of pajamas to change into, and went into the bathroom. While standing under the shower head as the water came down, she continued to ponder about Song Tingshen’s motive.

She naturally wouldn’t stupidly think that Song Tingshen had suddenly developed deep feelings for her.

He and the original owner had lived under the same roof for four years without developing feelings. There was no way that his feelings for her would change within a short period of time.

She wouldn’t be surprised if Song Tingshen brought up divorce tomorrow, but she felt puzzled by his actions today.

She knew that his actions had to be for Little Wang’s benefit. Generally, two topics would come up during a conversation about divorce: splitting assets and custody of the child.

There would be no conflicting views between the two of them when it came to splitting assets. Even if there were, he wouldn’t try to curry favor with her because of this.

But, as for who would get custody of Little Wang... If he wanted custody of Little Wang, with his ability and financial qualifications, it would be more suitable for him to get custody. He had even less reason to curry favor with her over this matter. In the eyes of outsiders, she was an incompetent mother.

It couldn’t be... He didn’t want custody of Little Wang? He wanted her to take custody of Little Wang, so he was currying favor with her in advance to get her to agree when he brought it up tomorrow?

Ruan Xia stroked her chin. Hmm, that might be possible.
