Chapter 41 Don't be fooled by his appearance.
The boy looked down at the woman in his arms: "..."
This little liar, lies just spring to his mouth, he's so clever and mischievous.
Wang Ma saw right through her faking tears and was probably secretly laughing to herself! It was truly unbearable to watch.
So she quickly said, "Oh dear, manager, look how weak Zhang Ma is right now. She needs to rest properly. Could you please get us a room?"
Anyway, this hotel is owned by the young master's family, so there's no harm in staying here. Today I can experience a five-star hotel for once.
The manager naturally dared not neglect Zhang Ma, after all, she was the young master's woman.
Without saying a word, he immediately arranged a luxurious suite for them.
"Then please rest here. If you need anything, just press the service bell and someone will come to help you," the manager said politely.
Aunt Wang nodded happily, "Thank you, manager."
I didn't expect Manager Wang to be so savvy; he actually arranged such a large suite. Not bad at all!
"You're welcome," the manager said and walked out.
"Alright, stop pretending! The manager has already left!" After saying this, Wang Ma slumped onto the sofa.
I can finally rest.
Zhang Xinru, who was still faking tears, burst out laughing.
"Hahahaha, I'm so suffocating, put me down quickly."
The boy placed Zhang Xinru on the soft bed and said obediently, "Sister, you two rest first, I'll go out for a bit."
Without waiting for their reply, he left.
At this point, only Zhang Xinru and Wang Ma remained in the room.
Zhang Xinru was a little puzzled. "Where did your son go? He didn't even say hello."
Wang's mother said nonchalantly, "Who knows? My son is all grown up now, he has his own ideas, and a mother can't control him!"
Zhang Xinru lay on the bed like a salted fish, saying weakly, "Aunt Wang! I never knew you had a son!"
Such a handsome young man, why didn't you introduce him to her sooner? You kept him so well hidden.
Wang Ma was busy gnawing on a plump king crab, her hands never stopping for a moment.
He casually replied, "Didn't I mention it to you before? I have a son who's a few years younger than you and is still in college!"
Zhang Xinru found it strange, "He hasn't even graduated yet, so why are you making him go out to work? Isn't the money you earn enough for him?"
Wang Ma earns tens of thousands of yuan a month, that should be enough!
“He’s so old, why should I support him? He should be able to earn his own living. I’m too old.”
Zhang Xinru: "..." It's definitely a stepmother.
"Wang Ma, Wang Ma, please introduce your son to me. I've never found a well-behaved type like him before, and to be honest, I'm a little envious." Zhang Xinru said this so bluntly.
When Wang Ma heard this, she was a little dumbfounded. This guy is obsessed with looks.
"Don't blame me for not warning you, he's not as well-behaved as he looks. Don't be fooled by his appearance."
Zhang Xinru pouted, "Oh, if you don't agree, you don't agree. Why make excuses?" That stingy old woman, Wang Ma.
Wang Ma rolled her eyes at her, annoyed. "Whatever you want, I don't mind how you mess with him, just don't come crying to me again."
Lazy and unable to distinguish between words.
"How could I possibly cry? We just got to know each other, and I didn't do anything else to him."
Wang Ma: "I have no objection if you want to do something else."
Tsk.
"Um... there's something I'm not sure if I should say, but please don't be angry when I do!"
Zhang Xinru looked at Wang Ma cautiously, seemingly hesitant about whether to speak her mind.
Aunt Wang said nonchalantly, "Just say what you want to say! We're practically best friends!"
Zhang Xinru: "Well then, my dear sister, I'll tell you!"
Wang Ma: "Speak!"
“Why doesn’t your son look like you? Did you steal him?” Zhang Xinru said, quickly rolling from the foot of the bed to the head of the bed.
Wang Ma stopped what she was doing. "Hey, you damned Zhang Ma, how dare you talk like that? He's my son, my own flesh and blood."
Zhang Xinru blinked and asked in confusion, "So your husband is very handsome!"
She couldn't think of any other reason besides that.
Hearing this, Wang Ma felt that the king crab in her hand no longer tasted good. "What do you mean? Are you implying that I'm not good-looking?"
She thinks she looks alright! She's just a little chubby.
Zhang Xinru waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no." Of course she knows what's going on! She has a point of view, doesn't she?
Wang Ma sighed softly, a trace of sadness flashing across her face: "My husband was decent-looking, but he died a long time ago, leaving us, a widow and her child, as orphans. I raised him from a young age."
When Wang Ma mentioned her deceased husband, her eyes dimmed.
Zhang Xinru realized she had asked an inappropriate question, "Then... please accept my condolences."
He quickly changed the subject: "By the way, what's your son's name?"
Before Wang Ma could answer, the door was suddenly pushed open, and the boy walked in.
"Is my sister asking my name?"
Zhang Xinru nodded.
He held a bag of sanitary napkins in his hand and handed it to Zhang Xinru, a shy smile on his lips: "Sister, this is for you. I didn't know which type you wanted, so I bought a lot more."
Zhang Xinru's face instantly turned red; she had completely forgotten that she was on her period!
She took the sanitary napkin somewhat embarrassedly, saying, "Th...thank you."
The boy lowered his head, fidgeting with his fingers shyly, and said softly, "You're welcome, sister. My name is Wang Xiaoshi."
"Hahaha..." Zhang Xinru couldn't help but laugh out loud. This name was just too corny!
She quickly covered her mouth, trying to hide her embarrassment, but laughter still kept leaking out from between her fingers.
The boy's wet eyes looked at her, which made her feel a sense of guilt.
Seeing this, Zhang Xinru quickly stopped laughing and comforted her, saying, "Your name is actually quite cute."
"Wang Ma, what kind of name did you choose? Does it mean anything?" Xiao Shi? Could it be that she was picked up?
"Of course it has meaning. When I gave birth to him, it took a whole hour! It almost killed me." Wang Ma still felt lingering fear when she mentioned it.
Zhang Xinru: "So it's called 'hour'? One hour?"
Aunt Wang: "Yes!"
Okay, it's really meaningful, but it's incredibly corny.
Zhang Xinru took the things she had bought for her a while ago, changed in the bathroom, and then felt a little awkward when she came out.
"Wang Ma, my clothes are all dirty, what should I do!"
Wang Ma: "What else can we do? Take it off, and then take a bath!"
Zhang Xinru rolled her eyes at her. This Wang Ma was completely unreliable. "If I change, I'll have nothing to wear. Are you telling me to run around naked?"
Wang Ma turned to Xiao Shi and said, "Son, go and find Zhang Ma a set of women's work clothes from here. Anything that she can wear will do."
"Okay, Mom!" Xiao Shi obediently went out to look for it.
