Chapter 185: My Heart Has Melted

Ling Hanyu wore a stern expression as he looked at his daughter and the furious Song Qingtian.

Song Qingtian was also beside herself with anger—how could she possibly shout at her daughter like that?

She kissed her daughter and said, “Mr. Ling, next time you hold our daughter, please be mindful of the situation. Nuonuo is very uncomfortable right now, and her crying is just a way for her to release her emotions. If you’re not going to help, then at least don’t interfere. She’s so little and so fragile—what if you accidentally hurt her?”

Ling Hanyu still looked a bit innocent: “I was just worried about Nuonuo.”

“I’m right here; you can just watch.”

Song Qingtian busied herself attending to her daughter and noticed that she had stopped crying. She wiped her face and asked, “Are you feeling unwell?”

“Oh,” Ling Nuonuo glanced at Daddy and then looked at Mommy.

“Mommy, I’m hungry!”

“Mommy will make you something delicious in a bit. For now, lie down for a while until you stop sweating, and then we’ll take a bath and change into some pretty clothes, okay?”

“Oh.”

Ling Nuonuo stopped crying and seemed in a much better mood.

“Even Daddy gets scared sometimes—Mommy is so brave!”

Ling Hanyu stepped aside and asked, “Should we go to the hospital?”

“No need. Nuonuo is just in a bad mood. When she’s upset, crying helps her let it all out, and once she stops crying, she feels better—and it even helps strengthen her lungs.”

At this moment, Ling Hanyu looked completely bewildered. So that’s how it is?

“Why on earth would she cry for no reason?”

“Nuonuo is my daughter. When Mommy gets bullied and I’m powerless to do anything about it, it’s just too frustrating, so she cries.”

Song Qingtian had never seen anyone with such high IQ but such low EQ.

Ling Hanyu really is peculiar!

Now Ling Hanyu was even more upset: “Are you saying I’ve been bullying you and scared Nuonuo half to death?”

He was truly offended and wanted to argue.

Suddenly, Ling Nuonuo felt aggrieved. She pursed her lips and started to cry.

“Nuonuo isn’t afraid! Daddy wouldn’t dare bully Mommy. If he does, Mommy will file for divorce, and Nuonuo and Mommy will leave here!”

Song Qingtian was furious.

Hearing this, Ling Hanyu flared up and decided to give Song Qingtian a proper lecture: bringing up divorce in front of their child—constantly threatening divorce like that…

There was nothing more to say.

But after Song Qingtian said that, Ling Nuonuo didn’t feel aggrieved at all; instead, she nodded and said, “Nuonuo and Mommy are together. Nuonuo told the judge that Mommy is all alone, and Nuonuo has to take care of her. Daddy is bad—he doesn’t take care of Mommy, and he likes bad women! Chacha and Huahua!”

Ling Hanyu was struck dumb. What…?

What did he mean to his daughter?

“Song Qingtian!”

Ling Hanyu instantly erupted in fury—this time it wasn’t fake; he was genuinely angry.

His cold gaze shot out like a blade of ice.

Just looking at Song Qingtian, Ling Hanyu’s eyes seemed capable of melting her.

Song Qingtian could feel it too—Ling Hanyu was truly furious.

“You need to think carefully about the divorce. You know there’s no love between us. My parents are gone, and I have to find a way to provide for myself. As for Nuonuo, she’s my only family. If you give me Nuonuo, I don’t care who you end up with, and we won’t interfere with your life either.”

“Song Qingtian—you…”

Ling Hanyu swallowed the words “you’re asking for trouble” and said, “Come to the study in a bit.”

Ling Hanyu looked at his daughter, her little face still damp with tears of grievance: “Daddy knows he was wrong.”

With that, Ling Hanyu stormed off.

Song Qingtian watched the door close, feeling deeply aggrieved.

After Ling Hanyu left, he picked up Nuonuo and headed straight for the bathroom, clearly not taking the whole incident seriously. Ling Nuonuo hurriedly glanced toward the doorway, a bit worried.

“Mommy, is something wrong with Daddy?”

Song Qingtian was relieved that her daughter cared so much about her parents—unlike an original female supporting character. That was certainly something to celebrate.

Otherwise, both she and Ling Hanyu would have been really unlucky!

The mother and daughter went to bathe together. Song Qingtian patiently explained things to Ling Nuonuo, and Ling Nuonuo soon felt much happier.

They changed into fresh clothes, styled their hair, and made plans to go out and play later.

Finally, they walked out of the bedroom together.

Ling Nuonuo came out of the room and headed to the study, knocking gently on the door: “Daddy, I’m here!”

Ling Hanyu was standing by the window, lost in thought, when he heard his daughter’s voice. He turned around and looked toward the door.

“Come in!”

Song Qingtian opened the door, and Ling Nuonuo stepped inside.

Seeing her daughter dressed up like a little princess, she crossed her little hands and bowed to him: “I’m sorry, Daddy!”

In that instant, Ling Hanyu’s heart melted!
