Chapter 24: Why Are There So Many Interactions Between the Two?

“Ling Hanyu, this is just boring.”

Song Qingtian glared coldly at the suddenly appearing domineering man.

“What do you think I should do to make it interesting?”

Ling Hanyu smirked disdainfully at Song Qingtian.

“I don’t want to think about it.”

Song Qingtian wasn’t in the mood for further banter with Ling Hanyu. Just because this man had money, power, and a cinema chain did that mean he could stop her from going on a date to watch a movie with her dream guy?

Not on her watch!

“Since this cinema is yours, then I’ll just go to another one.”

With that, Song Qingtian reached out and took Ling Nuonuo’s hand, turning around to leave.

“Waa…” A deafening wail erupted.

Song Qingtian looked over to see her little daughter, sobbing uncontrollably as she stared at the two of them.

“Sweetie, what’s wrong?”

She hadn’t even spoken very loudly—so why was the child acting like this?

Ling Nuonuo cried, “Mommy, please don’t leave Daddy… Take Daddy with you! Daddy hasn’t seen a movie either!”

Ugh! Song Qingtian felt as if an arrow had pierced straight through her heart—she wanted to cry but couldn’t.

What did it mean, “Daddy hasn’t seen a movie”?

It was true—the storyline had always portrayed Ling Hanyu as being so busy with work that he never spent any quality time with his family or went to the movies together.

But, little Nuonuo! Just because she’d never gone to the movies with him didn’t mean he’d never seen one, did it?

“Sweetie, don’t cry. Daddy has seen movies before—after all, he owns a cinema! How could he possibly not have seen one? He watches movies every single day.”

The thought that Ling Nuonuo was crying over such a trivial reason made Song Qingtian both melt and laugh.

Ling Hanyu, however, was quick to seize the opportunity.

“Nuonuo, you care so much about Daddy—that makes me so happy! It’s true, Daddy hasn’t seen a movie yet. Would you like to take Daddy to the movies together?”

Ling Hanyu spoke in a soft, gentle tone, acting like a little angel—but Song Qingtian couldn’t help feeling that he was actually radiating an aura of pure devilry.

“Roar!”

Ling Nuonuo wiped away her tears and quieted down.

Meanwhile, Ling Hanyu crossed his arms and leisurely fixed his gaze on Song Qingtian.

He was determined to stay right there and watch her flirt with another man right in front of her husband and child.

“Mr. Ling, since you’ve already divorced Qingtian, who she dates is none of your business, right?”

Qin Zhengxiao stepped forward upon seeing the scene.

“Oh? So you’ve already seen our divorce certificate?” Ling Hanyu’s hawk-like eyes locked onto Qin Zhengxiao, exuding an overwhelming presence.

“Qingtian doesn’t like you anymore,” Qin Zhengxiao retorted, his gaze piercing as he stared straight into Ling Hanyu’s eyes—as if that alone would be enough to force him to back down.

The two men stood face-to-face, and it felt as though the flames of conflict were about to ignite at any moment.

“Oh? Is that so? So she likes you, then?”

At first, Ling Hanyu had been looking at Qin Zhengxiao, but after saying this, he turned his gaze toward Song Qingtian, his eyes brimming with warning.

It was as if he were waiting for Song Qingtian to give him an answer.

Song Qingtian’s heart suddenly clenched in pain.

Damn it!

What on earth was wrong with Song Qingtian’s body in this story? Why did she react so strongly whenever Ling Hanyu showed even the slightest bit of emotion?

Ling Hanyu reached out and pulled Song Qingtian back into his embrace, then shot Qin Zhengxiao a provocative look.

“If she really likes you, let her say it herself.”

Bang, bang, bang! Bang, bang, bang!

Song Qingtian desperately wanted to say it herself—of course she liked Qin Zhengxiao! But once Ling Hanyu wrapped her in his arms, her heart started racing uncontrollably, completely beyond her control.

Her hand even reached out instinctively to hug Ling Hanyu, and she couldn’t help but imagine kissing him passionately!

Of course not!

She fought hard to suppress these devilish urges—if she kissed Ling Hanyu in front of Qin Zhengxiao, their whole relationship would be over.

“Zhengxiao, you can go now. Thanks for the toy—you and I can catch a movie another day.”

Qin Zhengxiao wasn’t afraid of Ling Hanyu; his only concern had always been Song Qingtian.

Hearing Song Qingtian say this, Qin Zhengxiao nodded and added as he left, “Call me if you need anything.”

It was precisely these words that infuriated Ling Hanyu.

Why were there so many interactions between these two?

It wasn’t at all like a victory for him—it felt more like he was unwittingly helping them grow closer instead!
