The Baby I Lost Is Actually with My Ex-Husband!-Chapter 25 - : What Is Given Cannot Be Taken Back
Chapter 25: Chapter 25: What Is Given Cannot Be Taken Back
Lin Qianqian could not misinterpret Lin Qi’s sarcasm. As a “kept” mistress, receiving real estate worth 170 million from her sugar daddy, while she, the legitimate fiancée-to-be of the Su Family, took out a loan to buy a 280 square-meter house, only to be outdone by this “mistress”!
“My Mommy is not being kept!” Momo said, “You’re just jealous that my Mommy’s house is bigger and more expensive than yours! Sour grapes! If you’re capable, ask your husband to buy you a 400 square-meter house! If you can’t afford it, then stop being sour about my Mommy.”
Lin Qianqian spoke indignantly, “Lin Qi, is this the little bastard you gave birth to? So ill-mannered!”
Lin Qi responded, “Bastard? Your daughter, born from an affair with a married man, what right do you have to call my son a bastard. You say my son is ill-mannered; what manners does he need for someone like you? Do we need to write a check to dismiss a beggar?”
“You—!” Lin Qianqian said angrily, “You slut with a sharp tongue!”
Momo retorted, “Bad auntie, you are spreading rumors, that’s slander, and you are committing a crime! Do you know how many years you can be sentenced for defamation?”
...
Lin Qianqian was stunned.
Momo continued, “You’re committing a crime, and your children won’t be able to become civil servants because of it!”
“Ha ha ha ha!”
The people in the sales hall all started laughing, finding Momo incredibly adorable. Not only was he good-looking and clever, but he was also protective of his mother, with the fearless innocence of a young calf, endearing to everyone.
Other children of his age would have just hidden behind their mothers in fear.
But he stood protectively in front of Lin Qi, his youthful face filled with determination to defend his Mommy.
Lin Qianqian felt the snickering around her and a sense of injustice, but she knew the public opinion was against her. These strangers had been charmed by Momo’s clever and lovable demeanour. Grinding her teeth, Lin Qianqian said to Lin Qi, “Lin Qi, don’t get too cocky! Sooner or later, I’ll find evidence that you were kept!”
After saying this, she maintained her dignity, taking Su Yuan’s arm and left.
The crowd murmured in amazement.
“Your son is so cute!”
“Smart too, and wholeheartedly protective of you. You’re a real winner in life for having such a child.”
“If I had such an understanding and affectionate son, I must have saved the galaxy in my past life!”
“…”

Lin Qi felt an immense sense of satisfaction in her heart.
She didn’t care about those rumors, but in crucial moments, Momo was always her strongest support.
He loved and cared for her more than anyone else.
Indeed, she was a winner in life. In her past life, she must have done many good deeds to have been blessed with a son like Momo in this one.
Lin Qi squatted down and said to Momo, “Momo, you truly are Mommy’s thoughtful and good treasure.” At the same time, she also felt a bit guilty because it was due to her son that Momo was being called a bastard.
Momo raised an eyebrow, “Why should I stoop to the level of those people? I’m not a bastard. My dad is Huo Tingdong, it’s just that I don’t acknowledge him.” He knew very well that he was not a bastard, so he didn’t take those words to heart at all.
Lin Qi said, “Yes, if you acknowledged your dad, you wouldn’t have to suffer these indignities.”
Suddenly curious, Momo asked, “Mommy, do you love Dad?”
Lin Qi hesitated for a moment.
It seemed no one had ever asked her this question.
She shook her head, “I have no feelings for him!” But she didn’t hate him. No matter how arrogant and cold Huo Tingdong was towards her, Momo was his flesh and blood. Seeing Momo, half of her aversion to Huo Tingdong would fade, but there was still fear in her heart towards him.
It was the fear of power.
Momo declared, “If Mommy doesn’t love Dad, then I won’t acknowledge him as my dad. Mommy, I will only acknowledge one dad, and that man must be the one you truly love, the one you decide to spend your life with. He must spoil you and love you more than me; otherwise, I won’t recognize him!”
Lin Qi was profoundly touched in her heart.
“However!” Momo puffed out his chest, “I must be number one in Mommy’s heart!”
Lin Qi said, “Okay, okay, Mommy will always love you the most.”
“What about Han?” Momo cocked his little head, “Will you ever love Han more one day?”
“If I divide my love into five equal parts, I’ll give Momo three parts and give Han two parts.”
Hearing this, Momo finally smiled contentedly.
“Miss Lin!” Mo Ke approached carrying a thick stack of documents and said to Lin Qi, “Please come over to sign.”
Lin Qi stood up and asked, “Is Huo Tingdong really going to put the house under my name?”
Mo Ke paused for a moment, then quickly said, “Miss Lin, please don’t overthink it. Mr. Huo simply doesn’t have time to sign the paperwork. Besides, this amount of money is nothing to him.”
Lin Qi’s scalp tingled upon hearing this.
She suddenly realized that she knew too little about Huo Tingdong and the Huo Family.
Not just her.
The outsider’s understanding of the Huo Family was limited.
This ever-mysterious super-wealthy family, or perhaps even more financially powerful than the Lin Family had initially estimated, otherwise, marrying someone as “suitable” as Huo Tingdong would never have been her lot.
A house worth 160 million, would Huo Tingdong ask for it back from her in the future?
As if seeing through her thoughts, Mo Ke said, “Miss Lin, once Mr. Huo gives something away, he will never take it back.”
Only then did Lin Qi follow Mo Ke to the finance department to sign.
Refusing a gift would be foolish.
…
Yuhua Mansion was a build-first, sell-later property, with fully outfitted luxury homes, but to move in, one would still need to buy furniture and appliances.
However, acquiring furniture and appliances naturally did not require Lin Qi to worry, as this was a task entrusted to Mo Ke by Huo Tingdong.
It was already evening.
Mo Ke took Lin Qi and Momo back to Huo Mansion.
As soon as Lin Qi stepped through the door, Han opened his arms and hurled himself toward her.
“Han!” Lin Qi scooped Han up, “Did you miss me?”
Han nodded vigorously, his little hands cupping her face, kissing her cheek.
His lips were soft and warm.
Different from Huo Tingdong.
In that instant, Lin Qi saw Han’s face, which was like a mini-version of Huo Tingdong’s, and she suddenly remembered that night in the study, Huo Tingdong’s thin, cold lips…
Her face flushed red immediately.
Seeing this, Momo felt a sourness in his heart, thinking it was Han’s kiss that made Lin Qi blush. When he kisses Mommy, Mommy never blushes.
“Mommy, I want a kiss too!” Momo stood on tiptoe.
Lin Qi knew Momo was jealous and freed one hand to stroke Momo’s head, “Momo is a good boy, can Mommy give you a kiss in a bit?”
Old Madam Huo came over and asked somewhat sheepishly, “How did you manage to make Han like you so much?” She was Han’s great-grandmother and always cherished him immensely, yet Han never took the initiative to kiss her. Only with coaxing and tricking would Han reluctantly bestow a kiss.
Lin Qi was caught off guard by the question.
Not to mention the Old Madam, even she didn’t know why Han was so affectionate toward her.
The Old Madam suspected, “Did you feed him some love potion?”
