Rong Si was still furious, but when a soft hand touched his head and the owner of the hand comforted him, his anger died down a little.
The maliciousness in Rong Si’s eyes slowly disappeared. He nodded and said, “Yes, I’m fine now.”
Song Wanqiu looked at Su Shengjing in embarrassment. “I’m sorry for making a fool of myself again.”
She thought Ah Si hadn’t seen her and Rong Cheng, but he had. She looked down at her son, her eyes filled with guilt.
“Don’t say that.” Su Shengjing smiled. “If he comes looking for you again, you must tell me immediately. I will help you.”
“Thank you!” Song Wanqiu looked down and rubbed Rong Si’s head. “Ah Si, I’m sorry!”
Rong Si seriously said, “Mom, you didn’t do anything wrong. If anyone should be sorry, it should be that man.”
Song Wanqiu’s eyes turned red as she smiled at him. “Mm, Mommy understands.”
Su Jiu held Rong Si’s hand and revealed a bright smile. “Big Brother, let’s forget about this. Let’s find another ride?”
“Okay.” Rong Si nodded again and held her hand.
***
Rong Cheng did not forget the task he was given. He bought two cotton candies and returned to a beverage shop in the amusement park.
Qiao Man was feeding her daughter dessert when she saw him coming back. “Why did you come back so late? Where did you go? Did you go to see that witch again?”
Witch!
Thinking of Song Wanqiu, Rong Cheng suddenly felt that Qiao Man was right.
Why hadn’t I noticed before that, that woman was actually so beautiful? She’s indeed like a seductress that makes men’s hearts flutter.
“I’m asking you a question. What are you thinking about?” Qiao Man was displeased.
Rong Cheng sat down beside her. “What nonsense are you talking about? Didn’t I buy cotton candy for you and Little Yi?”
“Oh, then why were you gone for so long?” Qiao Man was suspicious. When Rong Cheng had said that he would buy cotton candy for her and her daughter, she already felt it was strange.
She had been waiting there for so long. She would not believe that nothing had happened.
Rong Cheng pretended to be calm and explained, “Isn’t there a lot of people here? Also, I met a business friend on the way here who had also brought a child here, so I chatted with them for a while.”
“Business friend? Male or female?”
Rong Cheng was a little annoyed by her suspicion. He didn’t like women questioning him in this way. He felt that they should know what was good for them and not ask questions. Before Rong Cheng had married Qiao Man, Qiao Man had been a gentle and charming woman; he had found her very attractive.
After the marriage, she had changed a lot. He felt as if she was trying to control him. What he could not tolerate the most was that she did not allow him to interact with other women. However, he had to do business, so how could he not interact with women?
Besides, he was a man. How could he not be attracted when he saw beautiful women?
Was he really going to spend the rest of his life with only one woman? How boring would that be? What was he earning so much money for?
Wasn’t it just to enjoy something that ordinary men couldn’t enjoy?
Recalling Song Wanqiu’s increasingly beautiful face, Rong Cheng found it hard to calm down. He still couldn’t understand why she would reject him when he had offered the best path for her.
Seeing that he didn’t answer, Qiao Man got even more displeased. “What are you thinking about? You’ve been absent-minded lately. Are you thinking about Song Wanqiu?”
