Chapter 269 – Perhaps, this was a retribution of sorts (1)

Qin Yu had been keeping a close eye on Song Tingshen and Ruan Xia’s movements. Just as Song Tingshen had him investigated, he had done the same beforehand and had a thorough understanding of Song Tingshen.

Song Tingshen was very self-disciplined. He rarely drank during social engagements, so Qin Yu knew that his words had an effect on Song Tingshen when he found out that Song Tingshen had asked his friend, Li Yuanhang, for a drink on Sunday.

Qin Yu looked at the photos he got on his computer. Ruan Xia was standing by the car. She and Li Yuanhang were helping Song Tingshen into the car, and then there were photos of her and their housekeeper aunty helping Song Tingshen into the house, etc.

He didn’t know if Song Tingshen and Ruan Xia had quarreled because of this. However, based on the current information, Song Tingshen had always maintained a calm demeanor. He guessed that with Song Tingshen’s personality, he wouldn’t quarrel with Ruan Xia yet. It was because Qin Yu was sure of this point that he dared to say those things to Song Tingshen. The longer you hold back from saying something, the more the seed of doubt would grow. Later on, no matter how Ruan Xia explained, it would be of no use. There were some doubts and suspicions that would leave behind indelible shadows in your heart if they weren’t immediately resolved.

This was the purpose he wanted to accomplish.

But, the person that left him feeling puzzled was Ruan Xia. Had she been reborn like him? If she had, why hadn’t she given him a response? He was obvious enough with sounding her out.

If she wasn’t reborn, then she wouldn’t understand when he tried to sound her out and anxiously resign. She wouldn’t have gone to see Song Tingshen in City A, and Song Tingshen wouldn’t be alive. It couldn’t be that this was all a coincidence, right?

However, he had repeatedly reviewed Ruan Xia’s actions during the days when Song Tingshen had an accident. She hadn’t been different from usual. The only strange thing was that she took their son to go see him. More importantly, she avoided traveling the day of Song Tingshen’s accident and came back a day early.

Based on Ruan Xia and Song Tingshen’s relationship’s, there was no way she would seek him out for no reason. And so, Qin Yu was still more inclined to believe that she was reborn like him.

It was impossible to say that Qin Yu wasn’t sad over this.

They had been together for so many years. Why did she save Song Tingshen? Wouldn’t it be good to follow the trajectory of their past life?

If she did this because she was worried about her son’s revenge, then she should know that he didn’t care about that. He was perfectly fine with her bringing her son with her when she married him, and he would do his best to give her son a warm family.

No matter how he lied to himself, he knew that based on this point alone, it meant that Ruan Xia thought Song Tingshen was a more suitable husband than him. That’s why when she was given a second chance, she wouldn’t consider him at all. Instead, she chose to help Song Tingshen avoid his accident.

She was a person that never took feelings into consideration, so she must think that Song Tingshen gave her a better life.

Qin Yu squeezed the bridge of his nose. Even if he knew what she was thinking of and even if she had already abandoned him, he still wanted to approach her.

Perhaps, this was a retribution of sorts. He thought of his deceased first wife. When he was hurting her feelings and ignoring her kind intentions, he should have thought of the possibility that he would one day become a person who would put himself into a humble position for love like her.
