The Villain's Mother

Chapter 286 - You weren’t supposed to have a future with her (3)

Song Tingshen was helpless. He couldn’t scold Little Wang. What happened today wasn’t Little Wang’s fault. It was his fault as an adult. Children were a blank sheet of paper. Before children were mature enough to possess the ability to be aware of danger, adults were their protectors. There was no excuse an adult could use to shirk that responsibility.

He wanted Little Wang to be vigilant while not losing his ability to believe in others. How to go about educating Little Wang on this matter was a difficult problem that he had to carefully consider.

“Why didn’t you call Dad or Mom?”

Little Wang raised hand to look at his wrist watch. “It’s broken. I couldn’t call. Uncle Qin said he already called you and you would come get me at night.”

Song Tingshen silently stroked Little Wang’s head. “Grandma fainted. Your mom’s condition isn’t very good either. She was so frightened. Little Wang, Dad has never seen your mom like that. Your Mom will definitely collapse if anything bad happens to you.”

Little Wang became anxious and hastily said, “Let’s go home!”

Song Tingshen nodded. “Let’s call Grandpa and Grandma. Before that, there’s something Dad wants to discuss with you. No matter who asks, don’t say you went with Uncle Qin, especially Mom, okay?”

Little Wang was puzzled. “Why?”

“I can’t clearly explain it to you now. Just know that Mom will blame herself a lot if she finds out that it was Uncle Qin that took you away. She’ll think everything is her fault.” Song Tingshen wryly smiled and touched Little Wang’s cheek. “Didn’t we say that we would protect and take care of Mom? Just tell your mom and grandparents that you went with a friend of Dad. Your phone broke. You just stayed over at Dad’s friend’s home and had dinner. Okay?”

If Ruan Xia knew that Qin Yu was the one that took Little Wang, she would probably blame herself and think it was her fault that Little Wang encountered danger. She would probably confront Qin Yu over it. He didn’t want to see that happen. He didn’t want to bother trying to figure out Qin Yu’s purpose in kidnapping Little Wang either. He just wanted to minimize the impact of this on their small family as much as possible.

How to deal and resolve this matter and Qin Yu, he would handle all of that on his own. She shouldn’t know about this. She only needed to face a future where Qin Yu wouldn’t be reappearing. She only needed to think that this was just a harmless accident and Little Wang was never in danger.

Little Wang thought it over. “Okay then.”

Song Tingshen stretched his hand out. “High five.”

That immediately caught Little Wang’s attention. Smiling, he high-fived Song Tingshen; this was a promise between men.

On their way back home, Little Wang called his grandparents. The two elders were almost in tears.

Song Tingshen’s thoughts drifted far as he drove. He was thinking about what Qin Yu had said.

Although his guess was far-fetched and unrealistic, it would explain why Qin Yu knew so much about Ruan Xia even though there was no intersection between them.

Was there really such a thing as previous lifetimes?

He didn’t know.

Song Tingshen didn’t want to think too deeply. He wouldn’t fall for Qin Yu’s nonsense.

He was willing to believe in the person closest to him. She was still waiting for him to come home.
