Chapter 177: Mommy, Be Careful!

Ling Hanyu had only intended to tease Song Qingtian, but the moment their bodies touched—reminding him of what had happened in the bathroom that day—it all spiraled out of control.

Song Qingtian was awakened and her body already responded. Dazed, she saw Ling Hanyu, and realized they were together.

Song Qingtian thought she must be dreaming.

At first she was confused, then she eagerly reciprocated.

If it was a dream, why be so reserved?

After all, she wasn’t one to hold back.

Ling Hanyu was equally eager, moving faster than usual.

Song Qingtian was completely dazed, unable to tell whether it was reality or a dream.

When it was over, Song Qingtian got up to rinse off, only to hear someone knocking at the bathroom door.

Outside came Ling Nuonuo’s voice: “Daddy, are you done yet? Did you wake Mommy up? Don’t hit Mommy—she’s very good, and Nuonuo is good too!”

Song Qingtian froze, instinctively looking toward the bathroom door.

She swallowed hard.

Ling Hanyu also went over there, but stopped just outside the door.

“Mommy still needs to wash up a bit, Nuonuo, be good.”

“Oh!” Ling Nuonuo seemed to have heard Mommy call out—Daddy must have been teasing her.

Ling Nuonuo was very worried, but she couldn’t open the door.

“Daddy, don’t hit Mommy! Nuonuo will protect Mommy!” Ling Nuonuo kept pleading.

Song Qingtian’s face turned green.

How could anyone be so shameless?

Coming to her senses, Song Qingtian bit her lower lip.

Recalling how frantically she had begged Ling Hanyu just moments before, she wanted to drown herself in the bathtub.

Ling Hanyu returned from the bathroom and went to rinse off.

Song Qingtian, meanwhile, gave herself a quick wash in the tub.

Both were very quiet; neither said a word. The only sound in the bathroom was the running water.

Song Qingtian kept her head down, thinking about how her wild behavior must have led Ling Hanyu to misunderstand her—that she’d been longing for intimacy for far too long, driven by years of being alone.

And such prolonged yearning had made her increasingly desperate.

Desperate to the point of madness.

Once she finished washing, Song Qingtian climbed out, put on a bathrobe, and then stepped outside.

She didn’t say a word and didn’t even glance at Ling Hanyu.

As soon as Song Qingtian walked out, she saw her daughter waiting at the door. She bent down to pick her up, only to realize her back was almost breaking. Plus, her hair was still dripping wet, and she didn’t want to get her daughter all wet, so she straightened up again.

“Mommy, did Daddy tease you?” Ling Nuonuo asked with great concern.

Song Qingtian was furious—her daughter must have overheard something, otherwise she wouldn’t ask like that.

“No, not really. It was just slippery in the bathroom, and I almost fell. I was so scared!”

“Mommy, be careful!”

“Next time, Mommy can wash with Nuonuo, and Nuonuo will remind Mommy.”

“Oh!”

Ling Nuonuo reached out and took Song Qingtian’s hand, and Song Qingtian led her over to sit down.

Mother and daughter sat at the vanity, drying their hair. Then Song Qingtian picked up her daughter and carried her to bed. While Ling Hanyu hadn’t come out yet, Song Qingtian changed into her pajamas, cuddled her daughter, and went to sleep.

Ling Hanyu wasn’t surprised at all—Song Qingtian was no longer the same person she used to be. She didn’t even wait for him to fall asleep.

Once in bed, Ling Hanyu lay down and watched Song Qingtian and her daughter for a while before finally drifting off.

The Song Family

Song Haichang was fuming: “Just think about it—have you lost your mind, or did a donkey kick you? If you’re being bullied, you could always wait until no one’s around, drag the bully out somewhere secluded, beat them half to death, vent your anger, and call it quits. But how could you call people over to the restaurant to make a scene? You don’t even realize that making such a scene will lead to big trouble!”

Song Haichang paced back and forth in the living room of his villa, absolutely livid.

Beside him sat Bai Ge, who also thought that although his daughter had acted rashly this time, no matter how upset he was, she shouldn’t have done something so foolish.

Even if it weren’t for their current situation, Song Yinyin shouldn’t have been so reckless.

But now that things had come to this, saying anything was useless, and yelling or spanking wouldn’t solve the problem either.

Song Yinyin kept crying: “I’m just so angry! Why should I pay for their meal? It’s one thing if I had to pay, but that waiter—what kind of person is he, to look down on me like that? I just have to teach him a lesson!”

“Teaching a lesson is one thing, but look at what you’ve done. What are we going to do now?” Song Haichang slammed his hands in frustration.

Song Haichang was already quite old. He’d spent half his life trying to seize Song Haichao’s estate, only to have someone else suddenly step in and ruin everything.

He’d thought that even if he couldn’t take all of Song Haichao’s property, grabbing a portion would be enough to fill the gap. But now, instead of gaining anything, he’d lost everything and stirred up such a huge mess.

Song Haichang was bitterly disappointed: “You think you’re so clever sneaking in and swapping things around? You’re not smart at all, and those two friends of yours are idiots too. This is clearly burying your head in the sand. Who is Ling Hanyu anyway? Didn’t you learn your lesson last time? And now you’re still sticking your nose where it doesn’t belong. Just wait and see what happens tomorrow—someone might come knocking on your door. Then we’ll see how you handle it!”
