Chapter 133: 133 Blaming oneself endlessly_1

"Dad, I still prefer going outside!" Qin Yutong held on to her mother, wanting to make their way outside.

"Why go outside? You have everything here at home, what are you up to?" Qin Muchuan stood up and walked toward them, playfully pinching Yutong’s little face as a warning.

His little daughter was always full of mischief and schemes, he wasn’t sure if Lin Xiangwan could handle her energy.

It was just a casual remark from Qin Muchuan, but the paranoid mother and daughter pair quickly shook their heads in denial.

"Of course not!" Xiangwan rushed to clarify.

"How do you know she doesn’t?" Muchuan asked curiously.

"Because..." Xiangwan forced herself to remain calm, speaking slowly. "TongTong is a very adorable child, how can you, as a father, assume such cunning motives from her?"

Yutong blinked, sounding a bit irritated. "Yeah, dad, you’re acting like you’re in some palace drama, painting me as some schemer!"

"Palace drama?" Muchuan was puzzled. He didn’t understand what they meant.

Yutong pouted and squinted her eyes slightly, speaking with a hint of contempt. "Dad, it’s super low that you don’t even know about palace dramas!"

Xiangwan laughed lightly. The sight of her daughter being so cute and snappy compared to her son, who was always trying to please people, was quite entertaining.

"All I know is ’three thousand beauties in the palace!’" Muchuan looked at Xiangwan with a teasing smile.

As she caught the greedy look in his eyes, a sour taste arose in her heart. "Lustful..." she mumbled.

"Indeed..." Muchuan confessed with a smile.

Any man who wasn’t gay or abnormal would be naturally lustful. If men were not lustful, it would certainly mean they have a physiological disorder.

Xiangwan felt more uncomfortable, she couldn’t help thinking about the time he had with the celebrity... and Song Yuyun!

Damn, how many women does he want?

Noticing her serious and distressed emotions, Muchuan sighed inwardly. It seemed he needed to explain himself.

"TongTong, didn’t you mention you wanted to go to the bathroom?" he tried to divert his daughter’s attention.

"Oh..." Yutong could not find any other excuses for going out, so she headed towards the bathroom.

Regaining her composure, Xiangwan remembered her son, who was still hiding somewhere close by. "Mr Qin, oh, I also want to use the bathroom! If TongTong is using this one, I’ll go to the one outside!"

Muchuan couldn’t help but laugh at their antics. "Why do you both need to go together? You didn’t even eat much just now!"

"Uh...when it’s time, it’s time. Nature calls!" she mumbled in reply.

Noticing her guilty expression, Muchuan became suspicious. "Are you hiding something from me?"

"Oh, no, why would I ever hide anything from you?" she hastily denied.

"Then, why are you acting so nervous?" Muchuan was perplexed.

In his perspective, there wasn’t much for her to hide. As a single mother raising a child, he had accepted her and her daughter, there should be no need for secrets!

Xiangwan wore a wronged look and asked in a low voice, "Why on earth would I be nervous? I’m not trying to trick you out of your money, nor am I planning to kidnap TongTong!"

He had seen all kinds of people and things in his business career.

He was very certain that she was hiding something. He just couldn’t figure out what she could possibly want to hide.

He simply nodded. "Alright then, off you go!"

"Um!" Upon receiving his approval, she rushed out like an arrow let loose.

......

At this moment, Lin Haoran, disguised as a little girl and anxiously pacing around near the bathroom, dared not venture too far from his spot in fear of his mother or sister not finding him.

After watching ’her’ for a while, a waiter came over and asked, "Little girl, can’t you find your parents?"

"No, I am waiting for my mother!" Haoran frowned, rather annoyed by the waiter’s meddling.

Did he look that stupid? What, like he can’t find his parents?

"What’s your mother’s name? Is she dining here?" the waiter asked with concern.

"Yes!" Haoran answered absentmindedly, looking around.

The two waitstaff exchanged a look and started gossiping quietly. "Could her mother be one of the ladies offering special services here? Making some extra bucks?"

"Very likely. What kind of customers would leave their child alone while they eat?" The other waiter agreed. "I just wonder if she’s one of our in-house ladies."

"Probably not, right? I’ve never heard of any of our staff bringing their children along. Besides, that’s not allowed! She must be a freelance escort."

In this restaurant, ladies offering intimate services fell into two categories. One was the in-house ladies who had a stable client base and high earnings. The other was independent escorts who had regular jobs, came in at night for a drink without paying any extra charges, and earned tips from clients as they pleased.

Haoran completely ignored the waitstaff gossiping away, his mind filled with worry about finding his mother.

He was so hungry, he hadn’t eaten anything to prepare for this dinner.

A waiter bent down and asked in a low voice, "Does your mom work here?"

"No!" Haoran answered irritably.

Based on this, the two waitstaff concluded that the child’s mother was probably an independent escort.

Feeling a bit sorry for him, they went back to work while still muttering to each other. "Poor kid, having a mother who’s an escort. How can she leave her child here while doing this kind of work? She’s not even worried about losing her kid!"

"Right, who knows what kind of women we have nowadays. What if some little girl gets tricked or taken advantage of?"

When Xiangwan brushed past the two waitstaff while they were gossiping, a pang of dread struck her heart.

Could they be talking about Ranran?

She quickened her pace and sure enough, she spotted a ’little girl’ looking anxious and lonely.

"Ranran..."

"Mommy!" Haoran’s eyes glimmered when he saw his mother, but he spoke in a weak voice. "I’m starving!"

Xiangwan felt overwhelmingly guilty and regretful. She had made a terrible mistake by leaving her son there alone. "I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have left you here by yourself!"

How could she let her child endure others’ disdain, pity, and humiliation?

She wasn’t a good mother!

"Mom, save your guilt for later, let’s go eat first, I’m really hungry!" Haoran wanted to comfort his mother, but could they do it after he had eaten at least?

Being a little agent was tough, he had to hide in the trunk earlier, and now he was stuck lurking around the restroom.

"Let’s go!" Xiangwan decided to take the plunge, if their secret was exposed, so be it!

Haoran, wearing little white shoes like TongTong, trailed behind his mother with a patter of steps...
