Where do you meassure?
I guess you have wireshark running on the client machiene or a setup
is like this:

client -> wireshark measuring point -> delaying mechanism -> server
In this setup there will be no delay between events in client and as
logged by wireshark
The full delay will be when a pcaket travels through the delay mechanism
If we assume your server is responding in 0 time then the delay
(network latency) is 200ms

At time 0 the SYN leaves the client and is logged by wireshark (packet 1).
At time 0.2 this SYN arrives at the server,
At time 0.2 this server returns a SYN,ACK
At time 0.4 syn+ack arrives  is received in client and is logged by
wireshark (packet 2)
At time 0.4 the client sends ACK and this is logged by wireshark (packet 3)
At time 0.4 the client sends data and this is logged by wireshark (packet 4)

Fits precisely the observed data
