The Baby I Lost Is Actually with My Ex-Husband!-Chapter 136 - Not Ready for Intimacy
Chapter 136: Chapter 136 Not Ready for Intimacy
Lin Qi was caught between laughter and tears. Glancing again at Huo Tingdong’s ashen face, she struggled to hold back her laughter and asked, “So whose baby is in Han’s belly?”
Han hugged his stomach, smiling gleefully, “Momo’s.”
Lin Qi: “…”
Han kept pestering Momo to play the game of having a baby with him.
However, Momo naturally did not have the patience to teach him how to have a baby, much less explain to him seriously that the two boys could not produce babies. Thus, with a dismissive attitude, he stuffed a pillow into Han’s clothes and kicked him out of the room.
Han ran out to show off his large belly.
Beside them, Huo Tingdong stroked his face with a large hand. If this son weren’t his own…
Han ran to Lin Qi, grabbed her hand, and let her feel his belly, “Is Han’s tummy big?”
Lin Qi tried not to laugh and said, “Big.”
Han, curious, exclaimed, “Han wants to have… a little Han!”
Lin Qi couldn’t hold back any longer and burst into loud laughter.
Han was just too adorable, truly her little treasure, making her happy every day.
“Alright, Han can have a little Han, then I’ll have a big Han and a little Han,” Lin Qi said as she stroked his hair and shared a smile with him.
Han also squinted his eyes and smiled. However, his next statement was shocking, “Just now… Han saw… Daddy and Aunt Qiqi kissing!”
Lin Qi: “…”
With an innocent and carefree expression, Han declared, “Aunt Qiqi is going to… have a baby soon.”
Huo Tingdong covered his mouth in one swift motion, threatening, “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Feeling wronged, Han grasped at his hand, muttering “Mmm mmm” for quite a while, as Huo Tingdong covered his mouth even more firmly, not daring to let him speak, “Shut up.”
Lin Qi said with a smile, “Children say the darnedest things.”
…
Without realizing it, half a month passed by in a flash.
After systematic rehabilitation, Lin Qi had pretty much recovered.
During this time, Huo Tingdong was so busy that he always came home very late.
On one hand, the company’s affairs were just too many and too cumbersome.
On the other hand…
He had been investigating the matter of Aiyou Hospital.
As the time gap was too large, it took quite some effort to uncover the events that occurred seven years ago, but some progress was made.
Aiyou Hospital was actually called Aiyou Maternal and Child Hospital, and it had closed down three years ago.
The hospital’s geographic location was not ideal. After the surrounding villages were demolished, the hospital also relocated.
After relocating, the new hospital was renamed Mary Maternity Hospital, with a restructuring of the equity and a complete overhaul of the medical team. In essence, it had undergone a complete transformation and was entirely different from its predecessor, Aiyou Maternal and Child Hospital.
Huo Tingdong also specifically investigated the original shareholding structure of Aiyou Maternal and Child Hospital. He found that during the ten-plus years since the hospital’s establishment, the financial performance was not optimistic, with significant losses. Other than that, there were no adverse reactions.
He obtained the original medical team rosters of Aiyou Maternal and Child Hospital, listing all doctor and nurse names completely, and brought the list home for Lin Qi to review.
“Do you recognize the nurse who delivered your baby back then?”
Lin Qi held a stack of lists, some with clear pictures and some with vague ones. She compared them carefully, one by one, and felt somewhat afflicted with face blindness.
“I’m starting to have trouble distinguishing these faces…”
She was getting a headache.
After all, seven years have passed and many memories had already blurred.
She tried hard to recall but could only remember a vague face and approximate facial features, unable to perform such detailed comparisons.
Huo Tingdong asked, “Does she have any distinctive features on her body?”
With his prompting, she did remember something, “She has a red mole on her chin.”
This impression was rather deep.
After all, she had mostly seen black moles and had rarely seen red ones, so she remembered it very clearly.
Huo Tingdong furrowed his brows, “A red mole…”
Some pictures were in color, others were in black and white.
Each photo was an ID photo, all taken facing the camera, making it hard to confirm who had a red mole on their chin, especially since people tend to tuck their chins slightly when taking ID photos.
Lin Qi said, “Don’t rush it…” In reality, she was more anxious than anyone else.
But looking at Huo Tingdong’s slightly fatigued side profile, during this period he was both busy with work and the investigation, to the point where stubble sprouted on his chin, giving him an added touch of masculinity.
She couldn’t help but raise her hand to touch his chin.
Huo Tingdong did not notice her action and instinctively dodged, her hand ended up resting on his Adam’s apple.
The distinct sensation of bone, along with the movement of his Adam’s apple, startled her with the touch.
Huo Tingdong sensitively grabbed her hand, his gaze falling on her face, as if silently asking a question.
Lin Qi said, “I… it was an accident.” She had heard that the Adam’s apple is a sensitive spot for men, and from what she saw, Huo Tingdong’s body indeed visibly tensed a bit.
Huo Tingdong said, “You shouldn’t touch here carelessly.”
Lin Qi was slightly astonished, “What happens if you touch it carelessly…”
Huo Tingdong parted his lips slightly, his tone now tinged with a hint of danger, “Trouble will ensue.”
He was “kindly” warning her.
There’s an apt description.
The 𝘮ost uptodat𝑒 novels are pub𝙡ished on freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
One of the primal instincts of a man is to hunt, the second is to reproduce.
Therefore, to describe many men as “thinking with the lower half of their body” is not an exaggeration.
Men often face the risk of losing control.
Even if he has remarkable self-control, he cannot exclude this possibility.
Moreover, the Adam’s apple is his absolute sensitive spot.
Now, with just the two of them at home.
He couldn’t guarantee that if he lost control, he wouldn’t do something to her.
In fact, ever since he kissed her last time, although he stopped at a taste, it had whetted his appetite.
He is not a saint. He too has emotions and desires. Not touching before does not mean he really has no feelings or desires.
Lin Qi watched as his pupils gradually darkened, and she slowly freed her small hand from his grip, “Can you… please stop staring at me like that?” She felt like in the next second, she might just get devoured alive.
Huo Tingdong gently encompassed her small face, pecking her lips. It was supposed to be a comforting gesture, but unexpectedly… the kiss was like a bullet being chambered.
Caught off guard…
She was pressed down on the sofa by him.
With a “whoosh” sound.
Files and documents scattered all over the floor.
Huo Tingdong pinned her down freely, she instinctively tried to struggle, but her two small hands were easily controlled by his one hand, held high above her head. In this position, she had no ability to resist him.
The man gently kissed her between the eyebrows, soft kisses tracing from the tip of her nose, cheeks, until returning to her lips, prying them open to further savor her sweetness.
“Mmm…”
Lin Qi struggled faintly.
She wasn’t ready yet… for such intimacy with him.
