The Villain’s Mother

Chapter 245 – Ruan Xia thought about that pretend kiss in front of Little Wang (1)

In a child’s world, the protagonists were himself and his mom. Dad was a supporting character. At certain times, this assertion was indeed true. For example, right now. Little Wang cared a lot about sleeping with his mom. He didn’t want to give up his sleeping spot next to his mom to his dad.

Little Wang couldn’t keep any secrets. Even if Song Tingshen told him not to say anything about this to Ruan Xia, after his bath was finished and he climbed onto the bed, he blurted out, “Do you like to sleep with me, or do you like to sleep with Dad?”

Ruan Xia was bewildered by his question.

She forced herself to remain calm and asked him, “Why are you asking this?”

Little Wang immediately sold Song Tingshen out. With an aggrieved expression, he said, “Dad told me to sleep by myself in the future because boys have to be independent, but I know that he just wants to take over my spot. He thinks I don’t know!”

Although he was young, it didn’t mean that he could see through his dad’s ulterior motive.

Ruan Xia: “…”

They were both adults. Ruan Xia understood why Song Tingshen had said those words to Little Wang.

Their relationship was getting better and better. As long as something unexpected didn’t come up, they were on their way to becoming a real couple. Moreover, they were husband and wife in name and lived under the same roof. Song Tingshen’s consideration wasn’t without reason.

Ruan Xia wasn’t an experienced person. Knowing Song Tingshen’s intention, she couldn’t help feeling a bit shy. Of course, she still did her best to remain unperturbed in front of Little Wang. “Your dad is right. Boys have to be more independent. It’s not like you can continue sleeping with Mom once you’re a big kid. That wouldn’t be good.”

Little Wang was nervous. “Mom, you don’t want me to sleep with you either?”

“That’s not it. It’s just that your dad’s starting point is good. It’s true that you can’t continue sleeping with Mom once you’re older. You’ll have to sleep alone then.” Ruan Xia thought it over and added, “People will laugh at you if you continue to sleep with Mom when you’re older.”

Little Wang saw through her. “You want to sleep with Dad?”

Ruan Xia: “…”

Did he have to ask such a straightforward question?

Little Wang simply lay down on the bed and rolled around. With his butt in the air, he harrumphed. “Both of you don’t want to sleep with me. You think I’m a little light bulb and want to get rid of me.”

(T/N: Light bulb is the Chinese equivalent of a third wheel.)

Little Wang was stating the truth.

Ruan Xia took advantage by patting his fat butt. “You’re not just a little light bulb. You’re clearly an infrared heater.”

Little Wang wiggled his butt. “So I can only sleep alone?”

“For now, not necessarily. In the future, definitely.”

Little Wang looked as if there was nothing to live for.

Ruan Xia took this opportunity to educate him. “You’re still young now. No one will say anything if you sleep with Mom. But when you’re older, people will laugh at you. Although I’m your mom, our genders are different. Isn’t that right?”

“… Yeah.”

Whether it was Song Tingshen, Ruan Xia, or the kindergarten teacher, they all instilled gender difference awareness in children at every opportunity.

So, Little Wang also knew that since he was a boy and mom was a girl, they couldn’t keep sleeping together.
