Chapter 251: Their Own Home

Ling Hanyu searched everywhere but couldn’t find anyone, so he sensed something was off and called Aunt Chen.

“Aunt Chen, why don’t you go back and see if anything is missing from the house?”

“Okay!”

Aunt Chen hurried home.

After checking, she said, “The car’s gone.”

Ling Hanyu wore a cold expression. When they left, the car was still there, which meant no one had left yet. It must be a trick to lure the tiger from the mountain.

Immediately, Ling Hanyu called Song Qingtian.

He thought her phone would be off like before, but surprisingly, it rang through.

Song Qingtian answered, and Ling Nuonuo in the child seat behind the car looked up: “Mommy…”

“It’s Daddy,” Ling Nuonuo replied eagerly.

What would Daddy say this time?

Song Qingtian wanted to set an example for her daughter—she wanted her to understand that running away from home was only a last resort, but never cutting off contact with Daddy.

Now that they were out, they had to get in touch with him.

Just then, Daddy called.

Song Qingtian picked up: “Hello!”

“Where are you?”

Ling Hanyu sounded calm on the phone, his tone gentle despite the anger boiling inside him.

Song Qingtian was truly impressed—only Ling Hanyu could stay so composed in such a situation.

“I just read the report; it did put Mr. Ling in a difficult position. But I’ve also thought about it: if Mr. Ling announces now that we’re already divorced, it’ll protect us.”

“That’s impossible.”

On this point, Ling Hanyu would never budge.

Song Qingtian had pretty much expected this outcome—Ling Hanyu wouldn’t accept it.

“Then I’ll go somewhere to hide for a bit. That way, we can think carefully about divorce. Even if we don’t end up divorcing, taking a temporary break would be fine too.”

“…Divorce is out of the question, and separation is out of the question as well. You say you don’t love me—then tell me, who are you? Where did the real Song Qingtian go?”

Song Qingtian’s brow furrowed sharply; she hadn’t expected Ling Hanyu to be so sharp—and bold enough to ask such questions.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Alright, let’s take a step back. If you say you don’t love me, then I’ll start loving you right now!”

Song Qingtian felt like screaming, “That’s dishonest!”

“How is that honest? Being completely naked and honest with you? Getting furious when you try to take my daughter away and being honest about it? Constantly claiming you don’t like anyone, yet clinging to Qin Xiaotian—how’s that honest? Or going out with Shen Conghao and being all cozy and affectionate—how’s that honest?”

The more Ling Hanyu spoke, the angrier he became, and Song Qingtian realized there was no way they could continue this conversation.

“Mr. Ling, please listen to me—I’ll go hide for a while, and we can all cool down. I’ll be fine, and I’ll take good care of Nuonuo too.”
