The Villain's Mother

011

When Ruan Lisa woke up the next morning, she didn't know if that was just a dream or if she had really talked with the novel's Ruan Lisa.

On a gut level, she felt that it had been a real conversation.

Ruan Lisa really wanted to curse.

Please don't let her meet that woman in her dreams again. If she met her again, she was sure to be angered to death by her. What kind of person was she?!

Look, it was no big deal if she wanted to abandon her husband. They were both adults. But, she didn't even want her own child. She hadn't seen reluctance at all either. Really, this woman was on another level from normal humans.

Ruan Lisa thought of what the novel's Ruan Lisa had done later in the story and suddenly felt relieved.

Yesterday, Ruan Lisa booked tickets for noon. If there was no traffic, it would take almost 40 minutes to get to the airport from the Song family's home. Ruan Lisa saw that there was still time before they had to leave, and she checked that the flight's departure time hadn't been delayed on her phone. After the aunty, who served as a housekeeper and nanny, cooked breakfast, Ruan Lisa said she could take time off while they were gone. She would be paid her normal wage during the vacation.

The aunty beamed with pleasure when she heard. She enjoyed working here. The husband and wife were generous employers, and they weren't troublesome at all.

A sumptuous breakfast had been prepared. There were hard-boiled eggs, corn and meat congee as well as steamed soup dumplings.

The chubby kid peeled a hard-boiled egg. Once he was done, he placed the egg on Ruan Lisa's plate. He looked at her with bright eyes. "Mom, you can eat the egg white, I'll eat the yolk."

Honestly, this kid was really sweet and tugged at her heartstrings.

Even at this age, she could tell that he would grow up to be handsome. It wasn't surprising that the female lead would fall in love with him in the earlier part of the novel and have a hard time leaving him.

He was an obedient child that was well-behaved even during meals. He didn't need anyone to feed him, and he ate plenty of food. His chubby body was a fair consequence.

After they finished breakfast, Ruan Lisa took the chubby kid along with a rolling suitcase to the airport.

She hadn't put extra effort into dressing up today. But, many heads at the airport still turned to look at them. Their gazes were drawn by the combination of the novel's Ruan Lisa's goddess-level beauty and an adorable, chubby kid.

The chubby kid was especially excited today. He looked left and right. He was going on a plane today!

"Are we really going up into the sky?" He asked.

Ruan Lisa laughed. "Yup, we're all going up into the sky.

"Then, can I roll around in the clouds?"

"You can't." Ruan Lisa solemnly lied, "You're too heavy. If you were lighter, you would be able to."

"Oh."

They were in the waiting area. A man, who was wearing sunglasses and sitting next to them, laughed from hearing their exchange. It was a dull sound.

Ruan Lisa turned her head, and their eyes happened to meet.

"Your younger brother is very cute," said the young man. Ruan Lisa was only twenty-five years old. She was so youthful and beautiful. No one would guess that Song Shuyan was her son, so it wasn't surprising that the young man would make the wrong assumption.

Ruan Lisa felt somewhat doubtful. Sometimes, a guy could pull off being a handsome guy by wearing sunglasses.

Don't be fooled though. If he took off his sunglasses, he might not...

Before she said anything in response, the chubby kid seriously said, "I'm not her brother. I'm her precious son."

The young man: "..."

The chubby kid added, "Uncle, mom and I are going to see dad. I have a dad."

Ruan Lisa covered the chubby kid's mouth with her hand. She elegantly smiles at the young man. "Children don't know what they're saying. Don't take offence."

The chubby kid humphed a few times, but he didn't wiggle out of her grasp.

After the young man left, the chubby kid said, "Mom, you can't not want me. You can't not  want dad either."

Ruan Lisa shot him a look. "You know a lot for your age."

The young man might not have been trying to flirt with her, but Song Sungwoo had a strong territorial awareness.
