The Baby I Lost Is Actually with My Ex-Husband!-Chapter 31 - Isn’t it Just a Son?
Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Isn’t it Just a Son?
Miss Song suddenly felt out of place in such a harmonious atmosphere, almost delusional; they seemed like a family of four.
But in fact, she knew very well that they were indeed a family of four.
Miss Song didn’t understand why Lin Qi refused to tell Huo Tingdong Momo’s background. Was she afraid that once Huo Tingdong learned of Momo’s heritage, he would fight her for custody?
Other than this concern, Miss Song could think of no other reason. Any other woman would have used her child to gain status long ago.
Even if the custody of Momo was relinquished, the Huo Family would undoubtedly compensate her handsomely.
But obviously, Lin Qi was an oddity; she didn’t care for money.
...
Perhaps this was the bond between mother and child.
Then… what about Han?
She probably doesn’t yet know that Han is her biological child, right?
If she ever finds out, this Lin Qi and these two kids could be like ticking time bombs.
If only…
If only she had the chance to bear Huo Tingdong’s son!
Miss Song felt so jealous that her heart soured. Lin Qi was indeed lucky, bearing two sons for the Huo Family in one birth, fraternal twins.
She walked up to Han and said gently, “Han, Auntie didn’t mean to call you retarded! Don’t misunderstand Auntie, okay? Auntie loves you the most.”
Han was very aware that Miss Song was flattering him only to curry favor with his father, so he paid no attention to her ingratiating behavior.
Miss Song’s face could not hide her embarrassment.
She tried to please him again, “Han, do you want Auntie to take you out for something yummy?”

Han shook his head, clearly uninterested.
Miss Song said, “Don’t you like eating pizza? Auntie will take you to a western restaurant to eat pizza.”
Han pouted and still shook his head.
Momo was somewhat surprised and asked, “You like eating pizza?”
Han nodded.
Indeed, he liked pizza, but having tasted all sorts of delicious foods from a young age, he was not so easily deceived.
Miss Song then asked Huo Tingdong, “Tingdong, are you free tonight?”
Huo Tingdong replied, “No, I am rarely at leisure, and I want to spend time at home with Han.”
Miss Song grew increasingly disgusted with Han; this child occupied too much of Huo Tingdong’s time.
If it weren’t for his dislike of her, perhaps Huo Tingdong would have married her long ago.
It’s just a son, isn’t it?
She could have one too; why treat a retarded son like a treasure?
Huo Tingdong told Miss Song, “I’ll have the driver take you home.”
“No need.” Miss Song, looking somewhat unhappy, said, “I drove here myself. Tingdong, I’ll be leaving now.”
And with that, she turned and walked away.
A servant entered the study and said somewhat bewilderedly, “Mr. Huo, I saw Miss Song leave like a gust of wind, she seemed very unhappy. Did you upset her?”
Huo Tingdong replied, “That’s none of your concern.”
Hearing this, the servant dared not say another word.
Miss Song walked all the way to the door, half-expecting Huo Tingdong to follow her since she was upset. She slowed her pace, but still didn’t see any sign of him.
“Miss Song, do you need a ride?” The driver asked respectfully at the door.
“Do you mean to send me away?” Miss Song asked.
The driver shook his head in fright, “No! No, Miss Song is a honored guest here.”
Miss Song frowned, grinding her teeth as she left.
An honored guest… honored guest!
She didn’t want to be a guest; she wanted to be the young Mistress of the Huo Family, wife to Huo Tingdong!
…
“Miss Lin, here are Momo’s textbooks,” the servant said, bringing books from Windsor High School into the room.
Lin Qi put all the textbooks into the backpack.
She stared at the backpack for a while, caught in thought.
This backpack appeared to be finely crafted; reportedly, it cost in the five digits.
Indeed, for an aristocratic school, even the backpacks exuded an upper-class aura.
“Mommy!” Momo, wearing the uniform of Windsor High School, entered followed by Han, “The school uniform looks so cool!”
Windsor High School had two sets of uniforms.
One was the formal suit uniform for attending official events.
The other was a sailor uniform for everyday class attire, designed in black, white, and gold; the look was quite luxurious.
Lin Qi asked, “Does the uniform fit well?”
Momo nodded and said, “It’s not too big or too small, fits perfectly.”
Lin Qi inquired, “What did you say when you went to see Uncle Huo today?”
Momo tilted his little head, looking innocent, “I asked him to pretend to be my dad and accompany us to that man’s birthday banquet.”
Lin Qi wondered, “He agreed?”
Momo nodded.
Lin Qi was surprised, “Why would he agree to something so childish?”
Momo explained, “I promised him I’d help Han with his homework from now on; it’s a trade!” Thinking it over, he suddenly said, “Mommy, I actually think Han is not dumb.”
Lin Qi asked, “Do you like Han?”
Momo happily replied, “Yes! Han and I are good friends now! We agreed to go to class together and get out of school together. Uncle Huo said, he would arrange for me and Han to be in the same class, maybe we can even be desk mates!”
Lin Qi said, “That’s good, you must take care of Han in the future.”
Momo suggested, “Mommy, shall we go buy clothes tomorrow?”
Lin Qi smiled, “Sure! I haven’t bought you new clothes in a long time. Going to a new school, you’ll need nice clothes.”
Han raised his hand, wanting to go along.
Lin Qi said, “Alright, Han can come with us, and I will buy some clothes for Han as well!”
Han nodded vigorously, looking very happy.
Suddenly, Lin Qi became a bit worried.
Han had always lived in luxury; any piece of clothing on him was a well-known brand, often costing tens of thousands. Although she was very willing to buy nice things for Momo, she herself made do with less.
But even the best she had were discounted items from department stores.
Lin Qi sneakily checked her bank account balance and found an unexpected additional two million yuan.
Tracing the source of the deposit, it turned out to be from her perverted former boss who had sexually harassed her.
She had previously reported her former boss for sexual harassment at work, but the boss apparently had some clout, and the police did not file a case, nor was there any compensation.
Although there was no physical harm done, she valued that job and had put a lot of effort into it, working on a project proposal, only to have her career derailed by the incident.
Could this be compensation?
Lin Qi skeptically verified the amount a few more times, precisely three million yuan, and thought she would use this money to buy new clothes for Momo and Han the next day.
The following day.
As Lin Qi was about to leave with Momo and Han, the nanny stopped her.
“Where are you taking the young master?”
Lin Qi replied, “I’m taking the two kids to shop at the mall for some new clothes.”
The nanny looked dubious, “Our young master dresses in brand names, he does not wear shabby street vendor clothes.”
