The Baby I Lost Is Actually with My Ex-Husband!

Chapter 111: Chapter 111: Crying that Shook the Earth and Moved the Mountains

Lin Qi’s gaze instantly became vacant.

She stared at Huo Tingdong with shock, momentarily unable to utter a sound, not even a question.

Momo was somewhat angry, saying, “You believe what she said, why don’t you believe what Mommy said?”

Huo Tingdong spoke in a cold tone, “I only believe in facts.”

He looked at Lin Qi, slightly clenched his fist, then released it, and said indifferently, “Lin Qi, this matter, it was just an accident.” He reiterated that it was an accident.

But Lin Qi knew that Huo Tingdong did not trust Song Shuyan more than her.

On the contrary, he must have known the truth, found the answer, he knew that it was Song Shuyan who pushed her down, that it was Song Shuyan who wanted her dead.

But he chose to protect Song Shuyan.

After all, when it comes to human life, if he also admitted that it was Song Shuyan who pushed her down, that would be attempted murder, a serious crime.

Naturally, he could not admit it.

At the scene of the incident, there were no surveillance cameras, no witnesses, and other than her and Song Shuyan, there was no one else present; trying to investigate and gather evidence was as hard as reaching heaven.

Now each side sticking to their version of the story, it was quite like the Rashomon; neither had ironclad evidence.

However, Lin Qi knew that Huo Tingdong would protect Song Shuyan to the end.

After all, Song Shuyan was his doted-on beloved, of course, he would be biased in favor of her.

But what about…

Her?

She had just survived a close experience with death, nearly died, weren’t her feelings important?

Wasn’t the truth and justice she wanted important?

Lin Qi felt this was somewhat unfair. Even though she had encountered too much unfairness in her life to count, never had any injustice compared to this one, making her feel so heartbroken and sad.

Lin Qi hesitantly said, “Huo Tingdong, if Song Shuyan and I were to switch places, if it was her lying in the hospital in mortal danger, if she said it was me who pushed her down… what would you do to me?”

She raised her eyes, with urgent need for confirmation, staring at Huo Tingdong’s face, “Would I be unavoidably condemned to death?”

“There are no ifs.”

Huo Tingdong’s voice, always devoid of any emotion, stated flatly without a hint of fluctuation, “You are you, Shuyan is Shuyan. The two of you are different people; how can they be confused with one another.”

Lin Qi said, “So it’s a hypothesis…”

Huo Tingdong cut her off, “There’s no such hypothesis.”

Finally, Lin Qi could no longer hold back, her face flushed a bloody color, her lips trembled fiercely, and tears began to swirl in her eyes.

She turned her face away, stubbornly closing her eyes, attempting to force the tears back, however, tears still fell like beads off a string, unceasingly rolling down.

“How envious.” Lin Qi muttered absentmindedly, “Song Shuyan can have such favoritism, even after doing such a thing, she still doesn’t have to pay the price.”

Momo was really angry now.

Was this man here to upset Mommy?

Momo declared, “You’re a bad person!”

Han sided with Momo in enmity, “You’re a bad person!”

Momo said, “You’re in cahoots with that bad woman! I hate you.”

Han also nodded vehemently, “I hate you!”

“And you!” Momo suddenly turned around, glaring at Han, “I hate you too, you’re one of them.”

Han’s eyes widened with grievance, Momo’s scolding directly reddening his eyes.

Han clasped his hands together helplessly, took a step back, and shook his head, trying to disassociate himself from Huo Tingdong.

Momo said, “He’s your Daddy, and that woman will be your future stepmother. You folks are a real family.”

Upon hearing this, Han violently shook his head.

He didn’t want that woman to be his stepmother at all!

Seeing Han innocently shaking his head, Momo clenched his fist, stepped forward, and gave him a push, “Just go away!”

Han fell on his butt, the sudden cold rejection from Momo catching him off guard. He sat there solidly, looking up at Momo with a pitiful quiver of his lips, his tears blurring his vision and wetting his eyelashes, but he held back from crying, only emitting suppressed sobs from his throat.

Momo said, “Go on, just leave!”

Was Momo trying to drive him away?

He didn’t want to leave Aunt Qiqi, to leave Momo.

Han shook his head desperately, showing both innocence and grievance, curled his small hand by the corner of his eyes, and began to cry sorrowfully, “Wuwuwu…”

Huo Tingdong was taken aback; he had seldom seen Han cry like this, looking so pitiful, as if abandoned by the whole world.

He walked over and hugged Han, whose crying grew even louder.

“Wuwuwu…”

Hearing Han cry heart-wrenchingly, Huo Tingdong was at a loss as to how to comfort him.

Momo looked at Han’s wretched state, and for a moment, seemed to regret his actions, feeling a pang of pity. Annoyed, he turned away and irritatedly tousled his unkempt hair.

He didn’t mean to make Han cry.

Love for a house extends even to the crows perching on its roof – similarly, his hatred for Huo Tingdong had spilled onto Han, which led to his uncontrollable impulse to drive Han away.

Han cautiously reached out his hand, grabbing the hem of Momo’s clothes, and sobbed, “Don’t… don’t drive me away…”

Momo turned his back as if indifferent.

Lin Qi snapped out of her daze; seeing Han crying, she wasn’t sure what exactly Momo had said.

“Han, don’t cry…” Unfortunately, with her fracture, she couldn’t even hug and comfort Han.

Han couldn’t take in Lin Qi’s words, only staring at Momo’s decisive back, crying and asking, “Aren’t we… good friends…”

While sobbing, he tugged at Momo’s clothing, “We… are the best… of friends…”

“We were,” Momo said coldly, “not anymore.”

Upon hearing that, Han’s crying choked up, and he was deeply hurt. After a few seconds of silence, his mouth opened wide, revealing his small tongue inside his throat, and then—

“Waaaa!!!” Han let out an earth-shattering cry from his tiny body.

Momo was stunned by his crying, turning around abruptly, looking at Han in disbelief.

Who would have thought that Han’s frail frame could produce such immense power.

“Momo doesn’t want me anymore… wuwuwuwu…” Han cried with both grievance and exhaustion, his little face red as if he was gasping for air, “Wuwuwu… Momo can’t not want me… wuwuwu…”

Unlike other children who would kick and scream while crying, he just sat down limp on the ground, continuously rubbing his eyes, his cute little ears also drooping without spirit, evoking sympathy.

Momo’s face became stiff.

Outside the door, a crowd had unknowingly gathered.

There were patients’ relatives, doctors, and nurses.

Passing by, they heard such loud crying from the hospital room and thought some naughty child must have been punished by their parents. When they drew closer, they saw Huo Tingdong cradling Han like a little ancestor.

Momo stood awkwardly aside, not knowing whether to comfort him or not, and regretted being so hard-hearted and harsh to the kid.

He put his hands on his hips and said to Han, “No more crying!”
