Chapter 166: 166 Newlyweds_1

Two lines of tears slid down her face unbeknownst to her, glistening against her skin.

"Mum, why are you crying?" Tongtong was upset, and she tenderly lifted her small hand to wipe away the tears off her mother’s face. "Mum, why are you crying? Is it because dad doesn’t like you?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Haoran suddenly got angry and snapped. "Mum, if Dad doesn’t like you, I’ll run away from home with you. What right does he have not to like you? I can’t stand him! Hate him! No matter how luxurious this home is, I don’t want to stay here anymore!"

Upon hearing that her mother and younger brother were leaving, Qin Yutong felt despair and tears swirled in her eyes.

Her small hands were clutching her mother’s clothes desperately while she looked up pleadingly, "Mum, don’t take my brother away. If you leave, I will lose my mum and brother."

"Tongtong..." This was the first time Lin Xiangwan had seen her daughter so helpless and weak. In her mind, Tongtong had always been a strong child, able to handle any situation with adult-like composure!

It was only now she realized, no matter how emotionally intelligent a child may be, they were still just a delicate child!

Lin Xiangwan dried her tears and smiled indifferently at her children. Moving her hand away from her face with a pretense of anger, she said. "Who said your dad doesn’t like me? Only if he’s blind would he not!"

"Hehe..." Qin Yutong managed to smile through her tears, wiping them away as she spoke up in her childlike voice. "Dad has great vision, and he’s the best shooter in the troops, always the champion in every competition!"

"Really?" Lin Haoran’s eyes widened as he asked curiously.

"Yes, Dad has many trophies! Come, I’ll show you!" Tongtong pulled Ranran upstairs, trying to prove their father’s awesomeness and hoping he would quickly grow fond of him.

Lin Xiangwan sat on the stone bench by the fountain in her garden, constantly cursing a certain person in her heart.

It was all Qin Muchuan’s fault! If he hadn’t uttered those unfeeling words, she wouldn’t have accidentally cried in front of the children, causing them to be unhappy.

The more Lin Xiangwan thought about it, the angrier she became, with the thought of their heartless post-marriage agreement filled her mind.

No interference with his future personal life? Does he think she’s eager to interfere?

It seemed to be Qin Muchuan’s intention to implement these agreements on their wedding day. It was already nine o’clock in the evening, but he was nowhere to be seen.

Having been sitting on the living room sofa the whole time, Lin Xiangwan couldn’t help but yawn. The events of the last few days had taken a toll on her. With all issues seemingly resolved, her tightly wound nerves finally began to relax, only to be followed by a wave of exhaustion!

"Madam, you should go to sleep in your room!" The Butler walked over, considerately covering her with a blanket.

Feeling a little awkward, Lin Xiangwan tried to smile but immediately widened her eyes instead. "Oh, I’m not tired yet. Let’s watch TV for a while."

Even though she was married, she still felt like a stranger here. Without her husband around, she always felt somewhat uneasy and embarrassed about going to their room.

"Madam, the master called and said you should head to your room on the second floor to rest. He might be busy tonight!" The Butler started to say something but then hesitated. He looked rather anxious, almost guilt-stricken!

The shifty look in his eyes made it easy for people to guess what the master of the house was busy with at this late hour.

A bitter taste flooded Lin Xiangwan’s heart once more.

Damn it! Why did she feel so foolish?

Sitting here in the living room, wouldn’t the butler mistake her for waiting for her husband?

And that she was a disgruntled wife waiting for her husband like a lovesick little puppy.

What a joke! Why did she let herself end up in such a pathetic situation? She was not a pitiful woman!

"Alright then, where is my room?"

Upon her arrival, the driver and servants had taken her meager luggage to her room. She didn’t bring much else, and the restroom on the first floor had everything she needed, so she never went upstairs!

"Madam, if you would please follow me," The Butler led Lin Xiangwan upstairs and stopped in front of one of the doors.

There were four doors on the second floor, two on the left and two on the right.

Her room was the second one on the left.

The Butler opened the door and turned on the lights. "Your room, Madam, is this one."

Lin Xiangwan stepped into the room; it was sizable. Unlike the European-style living room, the design of the bedroom was American, luxurious, comfortable, and modern.

However, the room’s color was rather deep and made it look rather stern.

Fortunately, the lighting was soft, especially the dim lights by the bed.

The lighting design was exactly like a hotel!

Lin Xiangwan looked around the room, then closed the door and muttered to herself, "He must be so used to hotel living that he furnished the house like one."

She opened her bag and started to search for her sleepwear.

She had been in a rush and didn’t have many clothes with her. Earlier, she wanted to go shopping for some, but Xiaoqi said they had some unopened clothes and brought them over.

It was time for a shower and rest!

Ignoring everything else, Lin Xiangwan went into the bathroom with the pretty bag she had brought. The splashing sound of the shower filling the room.

With a ’click,’ the door opened, and Qin Muchuan, draping a dark blue suit over his wrist, entered.

The sound of the shower running attracted his attention. After a quick glance, he tossed his suit and tie onto a nearby cabinet before collapsing exhausted onto the bed.

He had drunk way too much tonight. A full bottle of vodka, a bottle of whiskey, and countless bottles of beer had brought him to his limit.

His friends were always competitive when they got together, especially when it came to drinking. It was entirely down to luck that none of them passed out.

Tonight, for some reason, they had all targeted him, causing him to drink excessively.

Qin Muchuan undid the buttons on his shirt, raised his upper body, and flung the shirt aside.

Only then did he feel a bit more comfortable as he lay there, drowsy.

Lin Xiangwan dried off her body and hair before reaching for the clothes her friend had given her.

When she unfolded the garment, her eyes widened in shock.

"What... What... What is this?" She exclaimed in surprise.

How on earth was she supposed to wear this?

Just then, her phone on the table buzzed with a new message. When she opened it, she heard Xiaoqi’s mischievous voice. "Wanwan, hehe...my present is pretty, right? Be sure to wear it!"

Lin Xiangwan pressed the reply button in frustration. "How am I supposed to wear this?"

"Oh my, you really are old-fashioned! This is called ’sexy’. I wouldn’t hurt you. Your husband has shown his true colors, so make him beg you, see what he will do. Then you can reject him hard, at least try to win one round!"

Lin Xiangwan’s heart stirred; winning one round was worth considering, really worth considering!
