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

Dynasty Hotel.

The Maybach stopped at the entrance.

The Protocol staff approached to open the car door.

Huo Tingdong carried Han out of the car, and Lin Qi, holding Momo’s hand, walked to the entrance but was immediately stopped by the Protocol staff.

“May I ask…”

Upon seeing Huo Tingdong, the Protocol staff was instantly overwhelmed by his imposing presence.

Huo Tingdong looked toward Lin Qi, and she quickly explained, “Lin Cheng is hosting a banquet here, we’re here for his birthday celebration.”

“Relatives and friends of Mr. Lin, I see!” said the Protocol staff. “Mr. Lin has reserved ten tables at the Purple Fortune Restaurant, please follow me this way.”

The Protocol staff respectfully ushered them inside.

Momo suddenly tugged at Lin Qi’s hand carefully, “Mommy!”

“Hmm?”

“Do you want to…” Momo asked seriously, “hold onto ‘Daddy’s’ arm?”

Han also paused and looked toward Lin Qi.

Lin Qi was taken aback for a moment.

She glanced at the taciturn man beside her and shook her head.

“But, you need to act like you’re very affectionate with ‘Daddy’!” Momo stressed again.

Huo Tingdong thought to himself, this little one switched terms quite nimbly.

But… him being called “Daddy,” he didn’t find it so repulsive.

Who could resist when the little one looked so adorable and elegant?

Momo cooed, “Hold on! Hold on!”

Otherwise, how would they look like a loving couple?

Lin Qi felt somewhat awkward at the moment; to her, holding a man’s arm was an especially intimate gesture, and she had never been so close with a man before.

Huo Tingdong had one hand holding Han and the other in his trouser pocket, yet the arm near her subtly made space for her.

He seemed to have no reaction to Momo’s words, still maintaining an expressionless face, but it seemed that his posture was a silent affirmation.

Lin Qi mustered her courage, moved closer, and awkwardly took hold of his arm.

Only upon holding did she realize what a shock it was.

Underneath the suit was an astonishingly lean and muscular physique, with firm and toned arms.

There was a particularly subtle fragrance from him, which she recognized as Armani’s Imperial Longjing fragrance.

Purple Fortune Restaurant.

Zhou Qin was greeting the guests when she saw, from a distance, Lin Qi walking arm-in-arm with a man.

Upon closer inspection, she couldn’t help but be startled.

The man beside Lin Qi was tall and handsome, with a face that was infuriatingly attractive, dressed in high-quality fashion.

There’s a price to elegance.

The suit on Huo Tingdong was a custom-made piece from Bottega Veneta, outrageously expensive, and on him, it exuded a luxurious demeanor.

Zhou Qin shifted her gaze toward Lin Qi, who was dressed in Hermes from head to toe, wearing Hermes mules worth over ten thousand yuan, and carrying the Hermes Kelly bag, summing up to a value of over two hundred thousand yuan.

Momo and Han were also dressed in Gucci, with the whole family’s attire altogether costing more than a million yuan.

Zhou Qin’s eyelids twitched fiercely until Lin Qi approached her, which is when she reacted.

“Qiqi, you look… truly beautiful today,” Zhou Qin complimented halfheartedly, immediately turning her attention to Huo Tingdong, “And this is…”

Lin Qi looked a bit uncomfortable, but quickly adjusted her expression and introduced, “This is my husband.” She introduced Zhou Qin to Huo Tingdong, “This is my step-mother.”

Step-mother…@@novelbin@@

This word made Zhou Qin very uncomfortable inside, but she couldn’t show it in front of Huo Tingdong. The smile on her face was somewhat stiff.

Huo Tingdong nodded elegantly, “Hello, Aunty.”

Zhou Qin said, “I still don’t know your distinguished surname?”

Huo Tingdong replied, “No need for ‘distinguished’, my surname is Huo.”

Zhou Qin said, “You’re also a ‘Huo’? Oh my! Isn’t that a coincidence? Qiqi’s ex-husband is also surnamed ‘Huo’. Qiqi, you really are something. When did you remarry without even letting us know?” She casually brought up Lin Qi’s ex-husband.

Immediately after, she covered her mouth, looking somewhat annoyed, and turned to Lin Qi, “Qiqi, should I have said that? Does Mr. Huo know about your marriage before?”

Judging Huo Tingdong’s dignified and wealthy appearance, she guessed Lin Qi couldn’t possibly cling to such a man.

This must be a lover, right?

Otherwise, how could a rich and classy man fancy a divorcee like Lin Qi who comes with baggage?

Lin Qi knew Zhou Qin was deliberately trying to disgust her.

But Zhou Qin had no idea that the man beside her was her ex-husband, Huo Tingdong.

Very few people had seen Huo Tingdong’s true face.

He clearly didn’t want to reveal his identity to avoid unnecessary trouble, so in Huo Tingdong’s eyes, Zhou Qin looked like a clown jumping on a beam.

Lin Qi said, “He knew I was divorced when we registered our marriage.”

Zhou Qin’s eyes flashed a sharp disappointment, but she forced herself to say, “Is that so? That’s wonderful, Qiqi. It’s not easy for you. With Momo, finding a good man who is willing to accept your past and to entrust his life to is no small feat!”

Her underlying message was that for Lin Qi, a woman cast out of the household, finding any man was not easy.

Zhou Qin then looked at Han, “This child is…” Definitely not Lin Qi’s child, as he doesn’t resemble Lin Qi at all.

Huo Tingdong said, “This is my son, Xiao Bao.” He was very wary of telling strangers about Han’s name, and had always protected Han very well.

“How old is he, seems about seven years old, right? About the same age as Momo.” Zhou Qin said, “Qiqi, this child is your…”

Huo Tingdong’s expression grew somewhat dark.

He didn’t like others prying too much into his private life.

“Mom!” Lin Qianqian approached, interrupting the somewhat discordant atmosphere inappropriately, and when she saw Lin Qi arriving, entwined with that man from the real estate sales office, she was also taken aback, “Lin Qi?”

She really brought that man over!

Lin Qi glanced at Lin Qianqian but suddenly noticed the Himalaya Bag intentionally hanging in front of her and was startled.

Isn’t that… the Himalaya that she put up for auction on the website?

There’s only one of this model.

The one Lin Qianqian was carrying was either a fake, or it was the one that sold for 5.6 million.

Could it be?

Was Lin Qianqian the one who spent 5.6 million buying that Himalaya Bag?

Could she afford it?

Lin Qianqian couldn’t be the foolish spender who bought her Himalaya Bag for 5.6 million, could she?

Seeing Lin Qi finally noticed the Hermes she was carrying, Lin Qianqian smiled and said, “Qiqi, do you like this bag? Su Yuan bought it for me.”

Lin Qi pursed her lips, barely holding back a laugh about to reveal itself.

Lin Qianqian’s face turned a bit green.

Why is she laughing?

She looked again at the bag Lin Qi was carrying, just a mere Kelly bag. Could it compare to the Himalaya that Su Yuan bought for her for 5.6 million?

Lin Qi said, “Nothing much, I think your bag is quite pretty. However, I’ve heard that there’s only one of this bag available. Where did you get this one?”

Lin Qianqian said, “Su Yuan bought it for me for 5.6 million!”
