Chapter 280 - So then, what do you like about me? (3)

She had been here for so long, but whether it was before or after she had put on makeup, she would be amazed every time she saw this face. Every day, she would admire herself in the mirror for a long time. For him to say he was immune to her beauty, she simply couldn't accept it. Of course, Ruan Xia knew he was stating the truth. When she had first transmigrated here, no matter how beautifully she dressed up, he barely looked at her. And when he did, there was no fluctuation in his eyes. He really was indifferent to such top-level beauty. After all, he had seen her for several years.

"I'm just telling the truth." Song Tingshen was helpless. Once again, he felt that his son had really hit the mark with his observations. Girls really couldn't stand to hear the truth. Although telling lies would make her happy, let him be able to disclose the truth occasionally.

"So then, what do you like about me?" Ruan Xia persisted. She was suddenly very interested in this matter. If he didn't like her because of this face, what was it then?

Song Tingshen halted. He stood face to face with her and squeezed her cheek. "I don't know."

Ruan Xia was discouraged. Sure enough, he couldn't find any good points about her.

She wasn't very smart, beautiful, or top-notched. She wasn't the ordinary of the ordinary, but the gap between him and her was too wide.

She finally understood and experienced for herself why people in love would feel insecure. Even for clearly outstanding people, they would feel inferior in front of the person they love.

Song Tingshen saw her wilted state and couldn't help smiling. "How about this? I'll take my time to think about it and give you an answer."

Ruan Xia listlessly nodded.

What he didn't say was that being with her gave him a feeling that no one else's company had ever given him. He held tightly onto her because he was clear about this.

Love wasn't that simple or complicated. If you had to give a reason or two... After all, love was an abstract concept.

Ruan Xia was an expert at comforting herself. After chatting with Song Tingshen about nothing of importance, she stubbornly bought a chicken cutlet and ate it under his frowning and disapproval. She felt a lot better after that. Although it was normal for the heroine in novels and TV shows to feel insecure and this negative mood was used as a justification to abuse the hero of the story for a few chapters, she felt there was no reason to make trouble and insist on making herself unhappy.

When they came out of college campus and were about to find a nearby place to have dinner, Ruan Xia got a call. She took her phone out of her bag and saw that it was a call from Mother Ruan. Was this a call to urge them to come over for dinner?

Ruan Xia answered the call.

A heart-wrenching cry came from the other end. It was Mother Ruan's voice.

Ruan Xia's mind immediately went blank. The hand holding the phone involuntarily trembled.

In the pauses between her crying, Mother Ruan said, "Xiaxia... Little Wang... Little Wang... he's missing!"

In an instant, Ruan Xia felt as if she had lost her hearing. The whole world had become quiet. She stood there in a daze. It was only when Song Tingshen shook her shoulder that she recovered and blankly looked at him.
