Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Daddy Bad

"Ugh, she annoys me so much."

Candy nodded vigorously, "Brother, let’s go make some trouble for her."

Lin Zirui’s dark eyes blinked as he watched the coquettishly approaching woman, then turned his head to whisper in Candy’s ear, "Alright, Candy, we’ll do this..."

Inside the villa, Lin Qian had finished preparing a table of dishes and wiped the sweat from her forehead before taking off her apron.

Everything was ready, it was time to eat.

Lin Qian’s lips curved in a smile, she didn’t ask the butler to call the two little ones, choosing instead to go out of the villa’s main door to find them herself.

From a distance, she saw the two little figures bowing their heads, talking to a woman.

The woman looked very agitated, pointing at them as if scolding them for something.

Lin Qian’s heart tightened, and she hurried over, wrapping her arms around the two children, "Candy, Zirui, what’s going on?"

"Mummy."

"Mummy."

Both children called out for Lin Qian in unison.

Behind them, Qiao Xiya was soaked through, her face smeared with water, and a flash of ferociousness passed over it.

"Lin Qian, what are you doing here?"

The damn woman had actually entered their home!

Qiao Xiya glared at Lin Qian’s back, her fierce gaze as if she wanted to peel off her skin.

It was then that Lin Qian turned around to look at the newcomer, a trace of surprise flickering in her eyes.

It was Qiao Xiya!

But why was she soaking wet?

Her hair was a mess, her makeup smeared, and she looked completely disheveled.

"Miss Qiao, I was just..."

"Mummy and brother came to have dinner with me and daddy."

Candy cut Lin Qian off, "Sorry Auntie Qiao, just now my brother and I were playing too happily, and we got your clothes wet. You should go change your clothes quickly, so you don’t catch a cold."

That smile, that obedient manner, made Qiao Xiya fume internally but unable to vent her anger.

Those damn brats, they did it on purpose.

They were subtly telling her to leave!

Why should she!

"Thanks for your concern, Candy. It’s okay, though, I’ll just borrow a shirt from your dad in a bit."

Qiao Xiya gave Candy a skin-deep smile and glared at her, then swept her gaze over to Lin Qian and Lin Zirui.

"Lin Qian, is this your son?"

Just like his mother, another annoying creature.

"Yes."

Lin Qian instinctively stepped in front of Lin Zirui to shield him from Qiao Xiya’s predatory gaze.

Qiao Xiya sneered at Lin Qian coldly, "Lin Qian, take good care of your son, and remember what I’ve said."

Bitch!

To think she had taken her words as if they were nothing but wind!

It was infuriating!

"Ah..."

Lin Qian watched as Qiao Xiya stormed off, wanting to chase after her to explain, but Candy grabbed her.

"Mummy, I’m hungry, can we eat now?"

The little one batted their big eyes, the cherubic look truly adorable.

The image of Yin Moran’s handsome face couldn’t help but flash through Lin Qian’s mind.

She sighed quietly to herself, taking Candy’s hand and reaching for her own son’s hand, "Yes, it’s time to eat."

If only this were her own daughter, that would have been wonderful.

"Yay, let’s go eat."

Candy cheered, peeking at Lin Zirui and giving him a wink.

Lin Zirui pursed his little mouth, also smiling knowingly.

Just now, they had deliberately taken the gardener’s spray gun to squirt water at Qiao Xiya.

They had intended to drive Qiao Xiya away, not expecting the woman’s skin to be so thick, refusing to leave.

They would have to come up with another plan to get rid of her.

The two children exchanged glances, understanding each other’s thoughts from the expressions in their eyes.

Entering the villa, Qiao Xiya started to fuss the moment she stepped through the door.

"Moran, where are you?"

"Miss Qiao, the young master is in the study," the butler hastened to report.

"I’m going to find him," Qiao Xiya prepared to head upstairs.

"Don’t go, Daddy must be busy right now, you’re not allowed to disturb him."

Candy came running in, her tiny hands blocking Qiao Xiya’s path.

"Candy, my clothes are wet, I need to borrow some from your dad," Qiao Xiya stated with patience.

"If your clothes are wet, go home quickly. Grandpa Butler, please show the guest out," Candy spoke up in her childishly firm voice, unwilling to budge.

"Candy, you..."

"What’s the noise about?"

Yin Moran’s impatient voice came from the stairwell.

Qiao Xiya’s eyes lit up, and she quickly stepped past Candy, rushing upstairs coquettishly speaking to Yin Moran, "Moran, look, they got my clothes wet."

Yin Moran glanced at her, his face expressionless, "Weren’t you in the hospital? Is your foot alright?"

Qiao Xiya choked, put on a dry smile, and changed the subject, "Much better. Moran, I’m so cold, lend me a piece of clothing, will you?"

Her foot was never injured.

It was too boring to stay in the hospital, so she came to find him.

It was fortunate she did; otherwise, who knows if Lin Qian would have made herself at home with her son.

Yin Moran’s lips tightened, his gaze sweeping down the stairs towards the woman standing there, the refusal he was about to voice swallowed back down.

"Kun, go get one of my sweaters for Ya to put on."

"Yes."

The butler followed the order and went upstairs to fetch the clothing.

Qiao Xiya felt a surge of triumph in her heart and glanced down at Lin Qian, taking Yin Moran’s arm, "Moran, I’m hungry, can we start dinner?"

She knew Yin Moran cared about her.

Even if he refused to marry her, her place in his heart was unparalleled by anyone else.

What was Lin Qian, anyway?

She was going to make her back down.

"Can we start dinner?"

Yin Moran did not pull away Qiao Xiya’s hand; instead, he looked down imperiously at Lin Qian, like a king surveying his servant.

Lin Qian pressed her lips together, offered a slight smile, "Yes, we can."

His attitude toward her had changed.

It must be because she had refused him.

That’s how it should be...

Lin Qian ignored the slight disturbance in her chest and turned to go to the kitchen.

The air around Yin Moran was thick with tension, his sharp gaze following that figure heading to the kitchen, the corners of his lips pressed tight, he sat down at the dining table without a word.

Qiao Xiya sat down close beside him, looking every bit the doting companion.

Watching the intimate behavior between Yin Moran and Qiao Xiya, Candy’s small eyebrows furrowed intensely.

What’s going on with Daddy?

Didn’t he say he didn’t like Mrs. Qiao?

Why is he letting her cling to his arm?

Not allowed!

She only wanted her mommy!

"Mrs. Qiao, go away! Can’t you see my mommy is here? You’re so shameless, why do you keep clinging to my daddy?"

The little one pushed Qiao Xiya without any regard.

Qiao Xiya’s face changed, "Candy..."

"Yin Xiaoxuan!"

Yin Moran’s face darkened, anger finding a sudden outlet, "Was it you who got Mrs. Qiao’s clothes wet? Apologize to Mrs. Qiao immediately!"

Candy’s small mouth fell open in disbelief, looking up at Yin Moran as the water in her dark eyes slowly formed droplets.

Daddy was scolding her for Mrs. Qiao!

Daddy is bad!
