Chapter 211: Daddy’s Different, You Know

Ling Hanyu had a good night’s sleep, and while he was asleep, Song Qingtian slipped out of the car to fuss with her shoes.

Twenty thousand yuan—what a pain in the heart!

If it were any other time, Song Qingtian would never have splurged like this. As an original female supporting character, she truly came from wealth; even now, she could easily afford such high-end shoes.

It was precisely because of her rationality—her innate tendency to attract negativity—that she ended up being framed by Song Qingtian and the others, allowing them to pocket thirty million without much effort.

Song Qingtian bought these shoes just to treat herself. She loved them so much that she deliberately wore them out for a stroll—only to have Ling Hanyu ruin everything.

Just as she was fiddling with them, Song Qingtian suddenly felt someone standing behind her.

She turned around and saw Ling Hanyu staring at her.

“Just a pair of shoes—do you really need to go to such lengths?”

Ling Hanyu crouched down behind Song Qingtian to take a closer look, and she put on the shoes before standing up. But before she could even finish, Ling Hanyu hoisted her onto his shoulders.

“Ling Hanyu… what are you…?”

Ling Hanyu lifted Song Qingtian onto his shoulder, casually kicked off the shoes she was wearing, and tossed them far away. Song Qingtian kicked and punched wildly, pounding her hands against his back like drums.

Yet Ling Hanyu seemed completely unfazed. He opened the passenger-side door and shoved Song Qingtian inside.

Song Qingtian tried to climb out to retrieve her shoes, but Ling Hanyu forcibly pushed her back in, slammed the door shut, and raised his dark eyes to look at her. Song Qingtian instantly felt uneasy.

She froze, not daring to move or even breathe.

Once the seatbelt was fastened, Ling Hanyu looked at Song Qingtian, their eyes met, and he gave her a slight smile.

He closed the door, got into the car, and drove off.

Song Qingtian was so startled she didn’t dare take a single breath.

From one side of the door, she watched as the car disappeared on the other.

Ling Hanyu smoothly climbed into the car, started the engine, and drove away.

Song Qingtian kept an eye on the road ahead. Soon they left the local street and entered the main thoroughfare.

Before long, they pulled up outside A City’s most prestigious shopping mall.

Ling Hanyu got out of the car, walked over to Song Qingtian, and opened the door to help her out.

Song Qingtian tried to use the fact that she had no shoes as an excuse not to go inside with Ling Hanyu.

But instead, Ling Hanyu simply picked her up and carried her straight into the mall.

“I can walk on my own—this doesn’t look right,” Song Qingtian protested, trying to reason with him. She didn’t want to make a scene.

When they reached the mall entrance, Ling Hanyu finally set her down and carried her inside.

The moment Ling Hanyu appeared, a wave of gasps swept through the crowd.

A City’s top “diamond bachelor”—he was practically walking hormones!

Song Qingtian was carried into a shoe store, where Ling Hanyu selected another pair of shoes, similar in style and design to the ones she’d worn earlier, except the price was ten times higher.

Song Qingtian felt embarrassed—being rich really did make a difference.

With so much money, she worried her feet would ache if she wore them.

“They’re too expensive—no, thank you,” Song Qingtian said, trying to refuse.

“As long as they look nice, that’s all that matters,” Ling Hanyu replied, then swiped his card and picked up Song Qingtian to leave.

If Song Qingtian hadn’t been outmatched by Ling Hanyu, she would’ve fought him tooth and nail rather than let him carry her off like that.

Fortunately, she had the patience to hold her ground.

Back in the car, Song Qingtian took off her shoes and sat barefoot, legs propped up.

She’d rather go without shoes altogether.

Ling Hanyu paid no attention to her and drove her straight home.

By the time they arrived back at the villa, it was already dinnertime. Ling Nuonuo spotted Song Qingtian and hurried over: “Mommy…”

Song Qingtian was about to scoop up her daughter, but Ling Hanyu stopped her.

“Mommy went to the beach today and fell into the water—she’s all dirty! Daddy’s taking her to take a bath.”

“Oh!” Ling Nuonuo tilted her head, her little face full of curiosity.

“Daddy’s acting different today!”

Song Qingtian was taken to bathe, and when Ling Hanyu wanted to join her in the bathroom, she blocked him: “Let’s bathe separately—otherwise Nuonuo might barge in. I’ll be quick; I’ll go first!”

Song Qingtian wouldn’t give Ling Hanyu the chance—he locked the door and bolted it.

Ling Hanyu turned around, grabbed pajamas from the closet, and headed to another room.

When Song Qingtian finished bathing, the room was empty.

She changed into her pajamas and dried her hair.

Song Qingtian thought back to what had happened at the hospital—what about Song Haichang? If things played out according to the plot, wouldn’t Song Haichang sue Chen Jianxiu?

She opened her phone and searched the news, but found nothing—clearly, someone had suppressed information about Song Haichang’s accident.

Yet Song Haichang was seriously injured; his male functions had completely vanished.

Would he really just let it go like that?
