Mr. Tycoon Is Actually the Father of My Child!
Chapter 192: Owed Lin Qian a Big Favor

Chapter 192: Chapter 192: Owed Lin Qian a Big Favor

The ordeal with the child traffickers came to an end; Lin Qian crouched down to look at Lin Zirui, her face stern.

"Zirui, although you inadvertently did a good thing, you owe Mommy an explanation. Why did you sneak out of school?"

How could this child take advantage of his cleverness to disregard the school’s discipline?

Moreover, even if he was smart, he was still just a child.

What if something had happened?

"Mommy, I was wrong."

Chu Ziyang lowered his head and obediently admitted his mistake.

He didn’t want to tell Mommy that he had covertly asked Sir Qi and found out that Dad was already in Su City.

He might have already arrived at Mommy’s shop by now.

He just wanted to sneak a peek and never expected...

"Do you realize what you did wrong? Can you promise not to act willfully like this again?"

"I can’t."

"Hmm, considering that you saved a child, Mommy will forgive you this time, but you can’t make the same mistake again, understand?"

"I understand."

Chu Ziyang obediently responded.

Lin Qian gently stroked the little guy’s soft black hair, her heart softening as well.

This child really made her proud.

She wasn’t truly angry with him; she was just worried about his safety.

Suddenly remembering she had a dinner engagement that evening, Lin Qian was full of apologies, "Mommy has something to do tonight, will you take a taxi home by yourself after school, or with Candy..."

"I’ll take a taxi home by myself!"

The little guy hurriedly spoke up, clearly aware of what Lin Qian intended to say.

Lin Qian opened her mouth, then swallowed the words she was about to speak.

She understood that the little guy was rejecting getting closer to Yin Moran.

A sigh escaped her.

"Mommy, what do you have to do tonight?"

"A senior leader has come to Mommy’s shop, so tonight Mommy needs to join others in meeting them."

Lin Qian answered truthfully.

A glint of light flashed in Chu Ziyang’s dark, large eyes.

A senior leader?

Could it be Dad?

If it was Dad, he would wholeheartedly support Mommy spending more time with him!

"Manager Lin, don’t be mad at your son, my sister-in-law and nephew have come over to thank him."

Chen Fei’s voice sounded beside her.

Lin Qian turned to see her leading her sister-in-law and nephew over.

Chen Fei gave Lin Qian a grateful smile and hugged the little guy, saying, "Dingding, won’t you thank the big brother?"

"Thank you, big brother."

The little guy looked slightly younger than Chu Ziyang and spoke in a babyish voice.

Chu Ziyang shyly pressed his lips into a smile, "Little brother, next time you mustn’t run around without Mommy, okay?"

"I understand."

Hearing her own son giving advice to another child, Lin Qian found it amusing inside.

Advising other children not to run around – he should take his own advice!

"Sister-in-law, you take Dingding back first."

Chen Fei spoke to her sister-in-law who looked apologetic, thanked Lin Qian and Chu Ziyang again, and then left with the child.

"Mrs. Lin, I will take Zirui back inside now."

The homeroom teacher prepared to take Lin Zirui back into the kindergarten.

"Okay, thank you for your trouble. Zirui, be good and listen to your teacher, understand?"

"Uh-huh, I understand. Mommy...."

Lin Zirui hesitated, ultimately waved to Lin Qian and said goodbye.

"Is it Daddy? He’ll find out tonight!"

Lin Qian watched the little one being led into the school and couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.

This child, really, I don’t even know what to say about him.

"Manager Lin, I’m sorry."

Chen Fei’s voice, full of apology, reached Lin Qian’s ears.

Lin Qian’s almond-shaped eyes flickered slightly as she turned her head to look at her.

Chen Fei apologizing to her?

Which matter was this about?

"It was a lapse of judgment on my part, something I did that hurt you."

Chen Fei paused, clenching her fingers tightly before continuing, "My dad passed away early, and my mom raised my brother and me all by herself. Now at an age where she should be enjoying life, she’s been diagnosed with kidney disease and needs a lot of money for a transplant. My family isn’t wealthy, my brother is scurrying around trying to earn more money, and I..."

Chen Fei slightly lowered her gaze, the guilt in her eyes fleeting.

Lin Qian reflected on these words, somewhat understanding the situation.

She simply must have been desperate for money, and that’s why...

"Shen Bing and I have a good relationship, and she knew a bit about my family’s situation. So, after she got fired for targeting you, she approached me one day, exploiting my need for money, asking me to work for Qiao Xiya. So, starting with the complaint about the watch, I have actually been monitoring you. The negative news about you was all me, following their instructions, secretly sending our store’s surveillance footage to Shen Bing. Manager Lin, I’m truly sorry, my selfishness caused you to be scorned at Old Madam Yin’s birthday banquet, I..."

Chen Fei’s voice was tinged with a choke, her eyes already red.

"I didn’t want to do it, but Qiao Xiya promised me a large sum of money, and with that, my mom’s surgery costs would be covered. That’s why..."

She knew that one day, she would ultimately be found out.

She was also prepared to be fired.

But she hadn’t expected that today her nephew would be saved by Lin Qian’s son.

She felt both immensely grateful and regretful.

She owed Lin Qian a big favor.

Chen Fei sniffled, taking Lin Qian’s hand, "Manager Lin, I swear, I won’t pass messages for Shen Bing and Qiao Xiya ever again, and I won’t take the rest of the money either. I’m truly grateful for what happened with my nephew today. I’ll accept any punishment you give, and if you ever need help, I will do my utmost to assist you."

Hearing this, Lin Qian smiled.

She had not anticipated her son inadvertently doing her a favor.

Would this count as turning Chen Fei to her side?

Heh, her son really was her treasure.

Lin Qian patted Chen Fei’s hand, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes shimmering in the sunlight.

"Don’t stop, keep passing them messages."

"Uh, Lin Qian, does that mean you won’t forgive me?"

Chen Fei’s heart tightened, anxiously asking.

"Hehe, that’s not it, I haven’t finished speaking," Lin Qian winked, a sly glint passing through her eyes, "Before you pass on any messages to them, check in with me first, so I know what you’re going to say. This way, on one hand, I’m informed, and on the other, they have money—this easy extra money, you shouldn’t miss out on earning it."

Chen Fei: "..."

Is that even possible?

Am I now a double agent?

Chen Fei felt a mix of amusement and disbelief, "Manager Lin, I find you’re quite crafty sometimes."

"Hehe, not at all, you flatter me; I’m a very gentle and loving mom."

"Ha-ha, Manager Lin, you’re gentle, but that doesn’t stop you from being sly!"

"..."

The two chatted and laughed for a bit before hailing a taxi to head on home.

In the car, Lin Qian listened to Chen Fei’s intermittent chatter, her thoughts stirring slightly.

So, starting with the complaint about the watch, Qiao Xiya had already had Chen Fei keeping an eye on her!

But at that time, Gu Yan had also been involved.

So, could it be deduced that Gu Yan and Qiao Xiya had formed an alliance?

Indeed, one thought her fiancé had been stolen by her, and the other thought her man had been taken by her.

Their common enemy was her.

Phew!

It was really helpless to be watched like this with covetous eyes!
