Chapter 83: Chapter 83: Never Give Her an Opportunity to Take Advantage
Song Shuyan was at a loss for words, stupefied for a moment before she said with a sneer, “I just never mentioned it; as long as I want it, Tingdong would buy it for me.”
Lin Qi said, “Then have him buy it for you. He’s filthy rich, it’s just a house. Why are you nosing around in my house with such eagerness? You’re a guest, without the host’s permission, don’t just wander around!”
Song Shuyan said, “Who do you think you are? You think I give a damn about this house? You’re so petty, scared I’m going to steal it from you?” She just wanted to see if the two were sleeping in the same room, that’s all.
Lin Qi said, “Song Shuyan, I gave you face by letting you through the door, otherwise, I would have had you stay outside.”
Song Shuyan said, “What right do you have to talk to me like that?”
Lin Qi said, “This is my home, you tell me if I have the right.”
Song Shuyan glared at her hatefully, “Don’t flatter yourself thinking I care about entering this shoddy house of yours!”
Lin Qi suddenly laughed, “Shoddy house? Song Shuyan, if you’re so noble, then don’t step foot into my shoddy house.” This house cost over a hundred million, and Song Shuyan refers to it as a shoddy house? How utterly ridiculous.
Song Shuyan said, “I really don’t get you, woman. Don’t think I’m oblivious to the little schemes you’re playing in your head! You and Huo Tingdong are already divorced, once divorced, you should act like it! Who has heard of a divorced couple still living together? Aren’t you afraid of it sounding disgraceful? Get it straight, the Huo Family has already kicked you out! With such a shady status like yours, spare me the embarrassment here.”
The maid retreated to one side, terrified.
She had never seen such a scene and dared not make a peep.
Lin Qi retorted, “If I’m the one who should be kept in the dark, then what are you?”
Song Shuyan said, “Huo Tingdong and I are childhood sweethearts, grew up together, you ask what am I? I’m the most important person to him! In his heart, I’m the one he loves most.”
Lin Qi smiled, “If he loves you so much, why hasn’t he married you, hasn’t made you his wife?”
Song Shuyan was suddenly lost for words and became infuriated with embarrassment.
Lin Qi said, “Song Shuyan, you’re older than me, right? If he really liked you, he would have married you long ago, so why hasn’t he made a move until now? You’ve wasted so much of your youth on him, and he can’t even give you a proper status, yet you still think you’re the one he loves most? Do you even recognize what you amount to?”
She didn’t mean to target Song Shuyan specifically.
Last night, in front of her, Song Shuyan asked Huo Tingdong to make her move out, Lin Qi just couldn’t swallow her pride.
Why be soft-hearted toward someone you dislike?
Song Shuyan gritted her teeth and said, “You really have a sharp tongue! Lin Qi, I won’t stoop to your level. I came here to pick up Han. And what do you know about Tingdong’s and my relationship? It’s none of your business.”
She walked over to Han, her voice turning tender, “Han, Auntie is off today, I’ve come to take you out to have fun. Would you like to go with Auntie now? I’ll take you to eat something yummy.”
As she spoke, she reached out to take Han’s hand.
But Han hid his little hand under the table, refusing to let her touch it.
Song Shuyan’s face stiffened, “Han? Don’t you want to eat something yummy?”
Han shook his head.
He wanted to stay with Aunt Qiqi and Momo.
Momo said coolly, “Han doesn’t want to go with you, you can leave now.”
Song Shuyan got angry, “You have no place to speak here!”
Seeing Song Shuyan scold Momo, Han also glared at her angrily.
Song Shuyan immediately softened her tone, trying to coax him, “Han, won’t you go with Auntie?”
Seeing that gentleness wasn’t working, she decided to use force and grabbed Han’s hand, preparing to drag him away.
Han struggled and resisted, his little face flushed red and his legs kicking wildly.
Lin Qi saw that Han was unwilling to leave with Song Shuyan and immediately went over, blocking her, “Can’t you see he doesn’t want to go with you?”
Song Shuyan pushed her away forcefully, “What’s it to you? Get lost!”
Lin Qi was pushed toward the table and nearly knocked the bowls and chopsticks onto the floor.
She began to get angry, “Song Shuyan, Han doesn’t want to leave with you!”
With a pale face, Song Shuyan retorted, “Don’t think I don’t know what game you’re playing! You know very well how important Han is to Tingdong, you want to please Han, and take the opportunity to please Tingdong, right? You want to remarry him, so, you are using Han, aren’t you?”
Lin Qi found her completely unreasonable, “What are you talking about?”
Song Shuyan shot back, “Am I not speaking the truth? Han isn’t even your own child. You’re so good to him, simply because you want to use Han to please Tingdong!” And with that, she gauged Lin Qi’s reaction.
Lin Qi said, “Even if Han isn’t my own flesh and blood, I treat him as if he were!”
Song Shuyan felt a surge of joy in her heart.
It seemed that Lin Qi still didn’t know that Han was her biological son. She had to seize the opportunity and not let Lin Qi get the upper hand.
Song Shuyan bent over to pick up Han and made for the door.
Suddenly, Han began crying loudly, “Wah…” Clenching his fists tightly, he started punching Song Shuyan’s shoulder and back.
Even though Huo Tingdong had taught him from a young age to be a little gentleman, to respect girls and ladies, he didn’t like Song Shuyan, even less did he like being touched by her.
Seeing Song Shuyan trying to forcibly take Han away, Lin Qi sternly blocked the doorway, “You are not taking him away!”
“Get out of my way!” Song Shuyan’s voice was cold with anger, “He’s not your son, you have no right to interfere!”
Lin Qi declared, “Neither is he your son! He doesn’t like you, he doesn’t want you, you can’t take him away by force!”
Song Shuyan said, “It is Tingdong who asked me to take Han to bond with him! Lin Qi, I am not like you, using every trick to deceive a child, sooner or later, Han will know that I love him even more than his real mother!”
Enraged, Han grabbed Song Shuyan’s hair tightly.
Song Shuyan was momentarily startled.
In order to fetch Han, she had dressed up carefully, her hair styled beautifully, but now, it was all pulled apart by his grabbing!
“Han, be good, obey!” Taking advantage of the fact that Han was “mute,” Song Shuyan twisted his buttocks harshly.
Such a small action went unnoticed by anyone.
Han’s face wrinkled in pain and he cried even louder, “Wah…” It hurts so much!
Seeing Han cry harder, Lin Qi felt extreme heartache, rushed over, snatched Han from Song Shuyan, and held him tightly in her arms.
Song Shuyan lunged at her, claws out, “Give Han back to me!”
Lin Qi, trying to dodge, stumbled over a stool and was about to fall to the ground.
The nanny immediately stepped forward to catch her.
Momo pushed his chair aside and walked up to Song Shuyan, giving her a hard shove, “Don’t you dare bully my Mommy!”
Song Shuyan became even more furious and raised her hand, slapping Momo on the head, “You little bastard, get lost!”
What do you think?
