Chapter 321: 326 Battles Wits and Courage with the Mistress 3_1

"Ha, you’re mistaken. Whether he’s a rich boss or not, he is still an ordinary person who enjoys common things. I don’t feel like eating anymore, I’ve lost my appetite!" This time, Lin Xiangwan really did lose her appetite. She couldn’t wait to leave immediately!

Qin Muchuan had already lost his appetite, so he put down his chopsticks. "Let’s go then!" he suggested.

Zhou Ziqing looked worried and quickly asked, "Are you leaving already? You haven’t finished your meal. It’s a bit wasteful to leave it like this!"

"Indeed, it’s wasteful. But compared to health, this small amount of waste is worthwhile!" Lin Xiangwan picked up her purse.

"Where are you going? Are you going shopping?" Zhou Ziqing asked again.

Lin Xiangwan sensed the woman’s motives. If she said she was going shopping, she would insist on tagging along.

If she said she was going home, Zhou Ziqing would insist on going with her, claiming that it was on her way home as well.

Zhou Ziqing secretly sneered, wondering how Lin Xiangwan would respond. But no matter how she responded, Zhou Ziqing would have a countermeasure ready.

Lin Xiangwan gave a subtle smile and asked first, "Ziqing, where are you heading? If it’s on our way, why don’t we go together?"

Zhou Ziqing’s serene smile froze on her face. If she answered this question, she had to reveal her destination first, which would allow Xiangwan to claim that it was not on her way.

Damn! How was she supposed to answer that?

"Ziqing, where are you going?" Lin Xiangwan asked again, showing her concern.

Zhou Ziqing was unsure of how to answer, so she hesitated.

Lin Xiangwan slowly started to smile. "Ha...Ziqing, you are not going on a date with your boyfriend, are you? That’s why you feel embarrassed to say it!"

"Of course not!" Zhou Ziqing immediately denied it.

Lin Xiangwan winked and said, "Don’t worry, even if you were, I wouldn’t randomly reveal it."

"It’s really not that, I was just thinking about whether to buy shampoo or go home first." Zhou Ziqing finally responded.

"Oh, I see..." Lin Xiangwan nodded understandingly, then looked slightly troubled. "I’m afraid we’re not going the same way, Ziqing. I need to head home now, my child has a piano lesson to attend later. If you’re going home, it’s not in the same direction either, so we should get going!"

After saying that, she waved goodbye, took Qin Muchuan by the arm, and left the Spicy Hot Pot Restaurant.

Qin Muchuan certainly noticed the obvious tension between the two women, which made him a little anxious. Was it possible that Xiangwan had found out the truth? "It seems like you and Zhou Ziqing aren’t as close anymore? Or am I mistaken?" Muchuan asked.

Lin Xiangwan didn’t pretend otherwise and nodded firmly. "I’ve had doubts about her character and worldview because of some things that have happened. I don’t like her anymore!"

"Oh? What happened?" Qin Muchuan opened the car door for Lin Xiangwan to get in.

Then he walked around to the driver’s side and got in.

Lin Xiangwan glanced at Qin Muchuan, then began, "Do you think it’s funny that she told me she wants to reconcile with Duoduo’s father? The man already has a family, a child! Isn’t she just trying to be a mistress?"

Qin Muchuan nodded, "This is not right."

"I think so too!" said Xiangwan, pursing her lips. "I didn’t know her that well initially, and thought she was a nice person, but now I see her in a different light. I feel that we’re on different paths, so I want to distance myself."

After that, she blinked her eyes, "Qin Muchuan, would you blame me for that? Do you think I can’t maintain friendships?"

"Of course not. If you feel that her actions upset you, and she indeed has some issues, it’s better to keep a distance," said Qin Muchuan.

Lin Xiangwan sidled up to him, looked blissfully at him, and said, "I knew my husband was the best!"

Qin Muchuan gave a dry laugh.

Only he was aware of the tension he was feeling, how torn he was.

If Wanwan found out about his other child, would she leave him?

He understood Wanwan’s character very well: she was loving and possessed a sense of justice. Although she is criticizing Zhou Ziqing now, he was worried that if Zhou Ziqing came begging with her child, Wanwan might choose to leave him!

"Wanwan..." Qin Muchuan called out to her suddenly.

Lin Xiangwan had her eyes closed, enjoying the feeling of being so close to him. At the sound of his voice, she replied with a smile, "Hmm?"

Qin Muchuan was struggling with how to phrase his question. He kept driving, remaining silent for a long time.

Since she did not hear anything, Xiangwan opened her eyes and looked at him. "What’s the matter?"

Qin Muchuan was silently staring at the windshield, finally he asked her in a tone of jest, "Wanwan, if I ever deceived you one day, would you forgive me?"

Lin Xiangwan’s heart throbbed. She knew what he was trying to ask. "Well, that depends on why you lied to me, and how you acted after the lie. If you lied to protect me, I wouldn’t blame you but be grateful instead. But if you deceived me and harmed my interests, I would never forgive you!"

Her answer was so tight that he didn’t know how to ask further.

"Why, did you do something wrong to me?" Lin Xiangwan looked at his profile and playfully asked.

"Ha... " He laughed lightly. "How could I?"

"If you ever cheat on me, I really, really, really won’t forgive you!" Lin Xiangwan emphasized it repeatedly.

Each time she emphasized the point, Qin Muchuan felt the burden on his shoulders becoming heavier.

Seeing his gloomy face, Ling Xiangwan said confidently, "But I believe you wouldn’t. After all, we have two children. Unless you really want our children to hate you!"

"Ha..." Qin Muchuan laughed. "Yes, these two responsibilities are indeed heavy!"

Lin Xiangwan leaned gently against Qin Muchuan’s shoulder. Both seemed to sense that the other knew the truth, yet none wanted to break the silence.

It was tiring, so incredibly tiring!

.........

Watching Qin Muchuan and Lin Xiangwan leave together, Zhou Ziqing was fuming with anger.

When she returned home and saw her daughter lying in bed, flailing her limbs about, Zhou Ziqing could no longer control herself and let out her rage.

"You’re useless! Why did I even give birth to you? I must have been out of my mind to have this stupid, monstrous child!" Zhou Ziqing randomly picked up a plastic flip-flop and started hitting Duoduo with it!

Each hit made the child wail in pain. "Ahh, ahh, ahh..."

"Why are you screaming? Shut your mouth! Do you know how annoying your screaming is?" Zhou Ziqing pulled on her daughter’s hair.

Poor little Duoduo was crying, wanting to escape but unable to. All she could do was tremble in fear as she looked up at her mother!
