The Baby I Lost Is Actually with My Ex-Husband!-Chapter 129 - : Won’t Leave a Second Time

Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Won’t Leave a Second Time

Huo Tingdong said, “The greening and renovation of the public cemetery are significant projects. The management fee is just a tiny part of it.”

Lin Qi insisted, “We still need to continue the investigation, at the very least… we must find the baby’s ashes.” She was filled with remorse for that child, and now that the ashes had vanished without a trace, replaced by concrete, her guilt was even deeper.

Huo Tingdong said, “I will. I will definitely find them. Don’t forget, he’s my child too.”

Saying so, he rose to his feet, moved behind her, and said, “Let’s go home.”

Let’s go home…

A simple phrase, just three words, stirred a sense of long-lost warmth in Lin Qi’s heart.

In a trance, Huo Tingdong had pushed her wheelchair and left the hospital room.

Yuhua Mansion.

As she pushed open the door, Lin Qi looked around the cold, empty house and felt a strange sense of unfamiliarity.

How long had it been since she had returned here?

She could no longer remember.

She thought she would never come back.

The nanny immediately approached to greet her at the entrance: “Miss Lin, you’re back?”

She asked with concern, “Are you feeling better now?”

Lin Qi replied, “Much better.”

She looked around.

The house’s layout had not changed much, yet it felt very different.

Perhaps because she and Momo hadn’t been here for so long and only Huo Tingdong and Han lived here, the large house felt devoid of life.

The nanny wheeled Lin Qi’s suitcase into her room, putting her clothes away in the wardrobe and hurriedly taking the laundry to the laundry room, bustling with activity.

Huo Tingdong secured the wheelchair and casually told the nanny, “You can start preparing dinner now.”

The nanny nodded, “Yes.”

She entered the kitchen and began to busy herself.

Lin Qi slowly stood up from the wheelchair, walked to the door of her room, and gently pushed it open. The room was as clean and tidy as when she left, with nothing out of place.

She still felt a slight sense of belonging to this home.

Huo Tingdong came up behind her and glanced at the expression on her face, “Starting today, you and Momo will move back here. Is there anything else you need to add?”

Lin Qi shook her head.

Huo Tingdong said, “Have you seriously considered the matter I brought up before?”

Lin Qi looked up blankly, “What matter?”

“Remarriage.”

Lin Qi froze.

She doubted, “Why would you want to remarry me? Is it because of Han, or because of Momo? I think you shouldn’t be so hasty. Marriage is for life, and I don’t want a second divorce.”

Huo Tingdong said, “There will be no second divorce. I won’t divorce you this time.”

Lin Qi said in surprise, “What if you fall in love with another woman in the future? Huo Tingdong, I hope my husband is faithful to only me.”

She didn’t get the answer she wanted.

She hoped that Huo Tingdong wanted to remarry her for her own sake, not for the children.

A marriage prompted by children would not last.

Lin Qi continued, “Have you still not figured out who Han’s biological mother is? You want to be responsible for me because Momo is your son, but what if one day you find Han’s biological mother, would you be responsible for her because of Han?”

Huo Tingdong said, “Han likes you, and he really enjoys being with you.”

Lin Qi asked unwillingly, “What if, he finds his mom and also likes her, would you then marry that woman?”

Huo Tingdong’s face stiffened.

Lin Qi said, “What about Song Shuyan?” Just mentioning the name made her nauseous, “Didn’t you like her? You liked her so much that you could… cover up a murder for her.”

Huo Tingdong frowned slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of displeasure, “She didn’t murder anyone.”

Lin Qi’s eyes flickered for a few seconds. She pursed her lips with a defiant shame, “Then what was it? She pushed me from such a high place, wasn’t that an attempt on my life? If it’s not murder, then what is it?”

Despite Huo Tingdong giving her two billion yuan.

Despite her agreement that with that money from him, she wouldn’t pursue the matter further.

Yet, that incident remained her nightmare, a psychological shadow, a knot in her heart.

Lin Qi clenched her fists and trembled, “Falling from such a height is very painful! You’ve never fallen, you don’t understand. That feeling of nearing death, unable to breathe, it’s very desperate. I saw Han and Momo right by my side, but I was afraid that if I closed my eyes, I’d never see them again. Have you ever felt that despair?”

She turned around and looked at Huo Tingdong with an intense gaze, “How could you possibly empathize when you have not been pricked by the needle yourself?! She is the culprit, and that’s a settled conclusion. You gave me two billion yuan to cover her crimes, and I may not pursue it, but I cannot let it go, much less remarry you? Marry an accomplice to a murderer? I can’t.”

She closed her eyes, trying to calm herself down, forcing herself to cool down, “I admit, I had a changed perception of you before. When you said that you wanted to remarry me, I seriously considered it, but… haha.”

The moment Huo Tingdong wanted her to give up pursuing Song Shuyan’s charges, her heart turned cold towards him.

It seemed he thought that by giving her two billion yuan, he could permanently close this chapter.

Lin Qi said, “I came back to this home for Han’s sake, it doesn’t mean I am willing to consider remarrying you.”

Huo Tingdong said, “How do you think I should compensate you? I will do anything that I can.”

Lin Qi suddenly asked: “If at that time, it was Song Shuyan who had been pushed down and was close to dying, lying in the hospital’s emergency room, her life hanging in the balance, and I, the one who pushed her, what would you do to me? Would you hate me enough to want to strangle me?”

She raised her head, looking into Huo Tingdong’s eyes, “Would you want to kill me to pay for Song Shuyan’s life?”

She urgently sought an answer.

Huo Tingdong clenched his fist, his throat moved, but he couldn’t give any answer.

Lin Qi urged, “Say it.” She knew Huo Tingdong wouldn’t lie.

She knew that whatever answer Huo Tingdong would give would be the truth, without concealment.

Huo Tingdong closed his eyes briefly, then opened them again and said faintly, “Yes.”

Lin Qi’s gaze went blank.

Huo Tingdong said, “She is very important to me.”

Lin Qi was stunned for a long time, then suddenly came back to her senses, “It’s obvious, she really is important.” For someone as principled as him, Song Shuyan’s special place in his heart was enough to make him abandon his principles.

She asked again, “What if, at that time, I had insisted on holding her responsible? If I had firmly decided to send her to jail, what would you have done…”

Huo Tingdong interrupted her, “Stop asking.”
