Chapter 164 I dont have any regrets either (1)
After having a meal with his former students and chatting with them for a while, Teacher Wang wanted to leave early to go home due to his old age as well as being concerned about his dog that had been left alone at home.
Song Tingshen offered to send Teacher Wang home, and Ruan Xia and Little Wang would naturally leave with him.
No one had any objections. After all, in their schooldays, Teacher Wang had valued Song Tingshen the most and treated him the best. Their teacher and student relationship had never been broken. There were even people that said Teacher Wang practically treated Song Tingshen as if he was his son.
After Song Tingshen and his family left with Teacher Wang, one after another, everyone left the venue too. After all, most of them had their own families. People in their thirties didnt have the energy or enthusiasm to go sing at Karaoke places or go wild at bars. They would rather go home to spend time with their spouses and children.
Ye Xuan had driven here. One of her good friends, who had also come to the birthday celebration, lived close to her, so she gave her a ride home.
Sitting in the passenger seat, her good friend ruefully sighed. I really didnt expect to see Song Tingshen again. Its so maddening that I spend so much money on skincare products every month and I still dont look younger than him. It cant be true that women really do get older faster than men, right? Thats too unfair. Im a year younger than him, but now I look a few years older than him!
Ye Xuan calmly said, Calm down. Youve already given birth to two children. Although youve done your best to maintain your health and appearance, its inevitable therell be damage from giving birth. Still, youre already doing a very good job on maintaining your looks.
Alright. Her friend sighed. Its better to have kids when youre young. Look at Song Tingshens wife. I heard shes only 25, which means she was pregnant and had their son when she was in her early twenties. Her figure and skin are so good. If you say that shes someone that had given birth, no one would believe you. If I had known this earlier, I would have had my children earlier. She paused and looked at Ye Xuan. Thats why you should hurry up with looking for a suitable partner. Youre 35. Thats considered advanced age for getting pregnant!
Ye Xuan squeezed the steering wheel, but her expression didnt change. Over the years, many people had urged her to get married. The words that her parents had said to her on this topic was a thousand times more unpleasant, but she hadnt waivered. Why? Because her ambitions laid elsewhere. Her resolve wouldnt be shaken by a few words from others.
The words she should say, she had already said them so many times. She didnt want to waste anymore saliva on that.
Not getting a response from Ye Xuan, her friend added, Actually, back then, it wasnt impossible for you and Song Tingshen to date. The two of you are such a good match for each other. Although its too late to say these words now since he already has a wife and child, I still feel its a pity. If it was Song Tingshen, you would be willing to marry him and have a child with him, right? Ultimately, youre looking for feelings. But what are feelings worth? Once two people get married, its all the same. Theres not much difference between having feelings and not having them. Youll still be passing your days.
Ye Xuan finally spoke. I dont think its a pity. I dont have any regrets either. Back then, after the college entrance examination was over, I confessed my feelings to him.
What? How come you never mentioned it? This was big news. No one would have expected that Ye Xuan had confessed to Song Tingshen back then.
