Even before this, Song Tingshen had found the situation strange. As someone that had been working hard in the business world for many years, the type of people he interacted with the most was business people. He knew better than anyone else that what business people valued the most was benefits. No one started a company for charity. They wanted to earn money, earn lots of money. So, he did find it strange that the company Ruan Xia was working for didn’t follow common sense for their various rules. Even he couldn’t figure out what was going on in the mind of her boss to have those kinds of standards for his company.
It wasn’t that he looked down on his wife. Ruan Xia had good academic qualifications and it wouldn’t have been hard for her to find a good job, but the key point was that she didn’t have much work experience. Moreover, even if she had several years of work experience, a normal company wouldn’t have provided such good treatment for the position she had interviewed for. Her salary, bonuses, and subsidies added up to at least 20,000 yuan per month. Although Weibo and Zhihu frequently gave people the false impression that everyone had an annual salary of a million yuan, big data showed that a monthly salary of 7,000 to 8,000 yuan was considered on the high-end for salaries in big cities. What did a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan imply?
(T/N: Zhihu is is a Chinese question-and-answer website where questions are created, answered, edited, and organized by the community of its users. It’s like a Chinese Quora.)
It wasn’t that Ruan Xia’s current job was bad. It was simply too good. Just as she had said, the job was tailor-made for her. A job that was close to home, light workload, high salary… Song Tingshen dared to slap his chest and make a guarantee that such a job didn’t exist!
Song Tingshen quickly recalled what Ruan Xia had previously told him. The receptionist as well as her manager were especially polite to her… Once an unfathomable premise was thought of, all of the unreasonable things became reasonable.
He wasn’t a person with a wild imagination, and he usually acted on logic instead of a gut feeling. Without definite evidence, he wouldn’t speculate. But when the matter involved Ruan Xia, it was difficult for him to be rational and calm about it. After all, if his guess was right, it meant that a powerful and deeply scheming man was after his wife all this time.
If this had happened before, Song Tingshen naturally wouldn’t care that much. After all, they had agreed before their marriage to not interfere in each other’s relationship. If she had wanted to leave their marriage back then, they could have divorced peacefully, but it was different now. As he thought that such a person was hiding in the dark, ready to get rid of him and replace him as Ruan Xia’s husband, Song Tingshen inexplicably felt irritable.
If that CEO Qin had been longing for Ruan Xia since early on, was it possible that he had even made a fake company for her?
Song Tingshen closed his eyes to think about this matter. No matter what, he couldn’t just resign himself to his fate.
After all, he knew that Ruan Xia hadn’t reached the step where she liked him a lot. Since he knew that such a person and possibility existed, he wouldn’t remain indifferent. Only by knowing yourself can you emerge victorious in every battle.
Song Tingshen had already decided that after he went back home, he had to thoroughly check out this CEO Qin and figure out his motive.
His mood was very complicated. On one hand, it was irritating that there was a scheming person after his wife, but on the other hand, Ruan Xia’s actions so far let him feel very relieved. As the very least, up to now, she wasn’t tempted by that man. She even tried to resolve this problematic situation in her own way.
Sigh. So bothersome.
He had to worry about his company’s affairs every day, and now, he had to be on guard at all times against this rival.
