Chapter 301: “If you won’t eat it, I’ll shove it down your throat!”

Just as Ling Hanyu was about to call the lawyer, Aunt Chen came downstairs with Ling Nuonuo.

After changing into new clothes, Nuonuo’s hair was neatly styled, making her look especially adorable.

Nuonuo called out, “Mommy!”

But Song Qingtian didn’t go over to hug her daughter.

“Mommy still has a lot to do—go play for now.”

“Oh.”

Nuonuo stood on the floor and nodded obediently, with Aunt Chen by her side.

“Nuonuo, why don’t you go change your clothes with Aunt Chen?”

Aunt Chen took Nuonuo’s little hand, and Nuonuo nodded before turning around and following her to change.

Before leaving, Aunt Chen turned back and said, “Sir, there’s something I need to tell you.”

“What is it?”

Ling Hanyu was very gentle with Aunt Chen.

Aunt Chen continued, “Secretary Yang has been arrested. Someone reported him—he embezzled company funds, and also…”

“They say he’s connected to the car accident involving you and Madam. The whole thing even made the news. If you two don’t wake up soon, it won’t be long before he gets sentenced. The driver who identified him said he was the one who paid off the other party, and that he even came up with the idea of claiming drunk driving. Originally, Secretary Yang had always protected Miss, but ever since his arrest, everything has changed.”

Aunt Chen only remembered this just now when she came downstairs; she thought she’d heard Secretary Yang’s name too.

Ling Hanyu nodded. “I understand, Aunt Chen. Thank you!”

“You’re welcome, Sir. In my eyes, Nuonuo is just like my granddaughter, and Madam is just like my daughter.”

“Thank you.”

Ling Hanyu was truly grateful.

Aunt Chen turned and left, and Ling Hanyu looked over at Song Yinyin. Yinyin looked timid whenever she met Ling Hanyu’s gaze.

Ling Hanyu glanced at the people on the floor but wasn’t in any hurry.

He walked over to sit down.

Uncle Lin had also come back, having bought a whole case of red chili peppers—seemed like he’d practically bought up all the chilies in the neighborhood.

Seeing the chilies, Song Yinyin shouted, “Song Qingtian, if you’ve got the guts, let me go! Just wait and see how I’ll make you pay!”

Song Qingtian burst out laughing. “I will let you have your way—but I mean what I say. You can only leave once you’ve eaten all these chilies. If you don’t, even if the Emperor himself showed up, try seeing whether you could get out!”

Song Yinyin was terrified.

A cold glint flashed in Song Qingtian’s eyes, and Yinyin could tell she wasn’t joking.

Today, Song Qingtian wouldn’t rest until she’d stripped Yinyin of every last bit of skin.

Yinyin put her hand behind her back, trying to pull out her phone and call for help.

Song Qingtian hadn’t missed it, but she didn’t stop her.

She was giving Yinyin a chance to call the police.

But instead of calling the cops, Yinyin dialed Bai Ge.

Bai Ge asked on the phone what was going on, and Yinyin hurriedly held the phone to her ear, crying and begging Bai Ge to come save her.

Bai Ge was anxious. “Where are you?”

“I’m at Ling Hanyu’s house—they… they’re awake now!”

Song Qingtian looked calmly at Yinyin. “Once you’ve made the call, you’ve got to eat the chilies. This whole big box should be enough for you.”

Song Qingtian took Yinyin’s phone and casually tossed it aside.

Yinyin was on the verge of a breakdown.

“Song Qingtian, what exactly are you trying to do?”

Song Qingtian just smiled. “What I’m doing isn’t up to you. I’d advise you to cooperate nicely and finish all these chilies. Otherwise, I’ve got plenty more tricks up my sleeve for you.”

When everyone on the floor had finished eating, one of them quickly raised his hand. “I… I’m done!”

Song Qingtian glanced at the floor and saw that they really had all finished.

Even the bottles and boxes were neatly arranged.

“Let’s go.”

As soon as Song Qingtian said it lightly, the others scrambled to their feet and dashed toward the door.

Uncle Lin opened the door, and the others ran out. Yinyin tried to get up and follow, but Song Qingtian lifted her foot and kicked her flat on the ground.

Uncle Lin followed the others out, and Song Qingtian picked up a chili pepper and tossed it to Yinyin. “If you won’t eat it, I’ll just shove it down your throat!”

Yinyin cried, her lips pressed together in grievance, and reluctantly took a bite of the chili.

The heat brought tears streaming down her face.

Song Qingtian smiled. “All done.”

Then she turned to Uncle Lin, who was coming back from the door.

“Uncle Lin, let’s go change and wash up—you watch her.”

With that instruction, Song Qingtian glanced at Ling Hanyu and the two of them headed upstairs.
