Chapter 157: Don’t Bully Mommy

Behind Song Qingtian was a table; if it hadn’t been there for support, with Ling Hanyu’s forceful push just now, she wasn’t sure she wouldn’t have been knocked over.

Ling Hanyu turned around and said, “I promise!”

With that, he headed toward the doorway. The door swung open, and Ling Hanyu stopped in front of Song Qingtian, who was stunned.

Turning back, Ling Hanyu looked at Song Qingtian and said, “It’s for Nuonuo. I don’t want her to have just regained her confidence only to find out her parents are getting a divorce. If she knew that, the hurt would last a lifetime.”

After saying this, Ling Hanyu left. The door closed behind him.

Song Qingtian stood in the room, dazed. It took her a long while to realize what she had just done.

Song Qingtian rubbed the spot on her back where she’d been pushed. Her mood was complicated. After all, he was someone she didn’t like, yet he’d hit so hard. Damn bastard!

One day, she’d definitely get him back!

Song Qingtian went to look in the mirror. The bruise on her back hadn’t even faded yet, and now she’d managed to give herself another one on her waist.

She took a shower—after all, she’d just come back from the hospital.

When she came out, she changed into some comfortable home clothes and called the school teachers. She explained that she wanted to build friendly relations with the other kids’ parents, hoping they could discuss things together if anything came up.

The school was very cooperative and gave Song Qingtian their contact information. Once she’d made the arrangements, she decided to drop by tomorrow.

With everything settled, Song Qingtian finally went downstairs to look for Ling Nuonuo.

Ling Nuonuo was playing with Ling Hanyu, and both father and daughter seemed to be in good spirits—especially Ling Hanyu, who kept indulging his daughter.

Song Qingtian stood to the side, watching them, and thought about what had happened to the original female supporting character.

Who wouldn’t want a good father?

Most scumbags are built on the image of a husband.

Ling Hanyu raised his eyes and looked at Song Qingtian, who was standing at the top of the stairs in her comfy home clothes. He straightened up, leaned against the sofa, sat down on the rug in front of it, and leisurely watched her.

Song Qingtian didn’t move closer; she didn’t want to disturb them.

“Go help in the kitchen,” he said.

With that, Song Qingtian headed to the kitchen.

Ling Hanyu frowned. “Come over here.”

Song Qingtian turned around and looked at him. “What’s up?”

“You’re just in time—come over.”

Ling Hanyu was displeased. What was so great about the kitchen?

Song Qingtian wasn’t happy either. She wasn’t a dog—why should she go just because Ling Hanyu told her to?

Without answering, Song Qingtian went to the kitchen.

Ling Nuonuo was playing with building blocks when she looked up at Song Qingtian, worried. She hurriedly got up and went to find her. “Mommy, you’re just in time—you need to rest. Don’t go to the kitchen. Nuonuo will take care of you.”

Ling Nuonuo loved Song Qingtian the most; she’d taken care of her before.

Grabbing Song Qingtian’s hand, Ling Nuonuo led her over to the sofa and insisted she lie down and not get up. She would take care of Song Qingtian.

Song Qingtian always obliged whenever Ling Nuonuo asked for something.

So she obediently lay down, letting Ling Nuonuo bring over a blanket to cover her and pour her water and feed her fruit.

Being cared for felt pretty good, after all.

Touched and a bit sleepy, Song Qingtian yawned and soon fell asleep.

Ling Nuonuo immediately said to Ling Hanyu, “Mommy’s worked so hard to earn money to raise Nuonuo. Daddy, please stop bullying Mommy.”

Ling Hanyu was staring at Song Qingtian’s sleeping face when he heard his daughter’s words and turned to look at her.

“Daddy, please don’t bully Mommy. You like bad guys—go ahead and like them, but don’t hurt Mommy. When Mommy finds someone she likes, she’ll have a little brother for me.”

Ling Nuonuo looked at Ling Hanyu sweetly, making his face turn pale with anger.

“Who told you that Mommy’s going to have a little brother with someone else? If it’s someone else’s kid, then it’s not your little brother!”

Ling Hanyu wouldn’t allow his daughter to think like that—she might get too deeply poisoned. So he picked her up and took her somewhere else to give her a proper lecture before bringing her back.

But Ling Nuonuo was only pretending to agree with Ling Hanyu; she wanted to protect Mommy.

As for what Daddy said, she could choose not to believe it.

When Song Qingtian woke up, she saw Ling Nuonuo lying right in front of her. Only then did she realize it was already afternoon.

“Mommy…”

Seeing that Song Qingtian was awake, Ling Nuonuo quickly leaned over to whisper in her ear, telling her what Ling Hanyu had said.

Song Qingtian couldn’t help but laugh. Ling Hanyu really was awful! He’d actually told his daughter that any child Mommy had with someone else wouldn’t count as Nuonuo’s sibling—and that he’d even bully Nuonuo.

Song Qingtian was quite upset. Ling Hanyu was truly terrible!
