Chapter 684: 691 sent a female caregiver_1
Qin Muchuan silently chuckled by the sight of the quirky mother-son-daughter trio.
However his expression remained stern. "If you’re not eating, then throw it away!"
"If I throw it away, will you buy me the same one?" Lin Xiangwan cheekily asked.
Qin Muchuan rolled his eyes. "What do you think?"
"How should I know if you don’t say anything? As per what I think, you should definitely buy a tastier one for my mom!" She said stubbornly.
"You wish!" Qin Muchuan flatly negated her idea. "People who are sick should eat more vegetables and less meat. The animal protein in the porridge are enough for you. Eating too much will burden your body!"
Lin Xiangwan swallowed her food and protested. "Are you kidding me? Am I not even capable of consuming a few pieces of chicken and a preserved egg? How did I not realize how skinny I am?"
"Less talk!" Qin Muchuan interrupted her from voicing more irrelevant words.
At this moment, his phone rang. He glanced at it and got up to leave the room.
Lin Xiangwan watched him leave from the vanished doorway, and smirked. ’Is there a need to be so mysterious? I know who’s calling even if you don’t leave. I did not stop you from leaving anyway, it’s good that you left!’
Lin Xiangwan, who was eating heartily a second ago, lost her appetite the next moment and put down her porridge.
The two children were still munching away happily, largely because Lin Xiangwan had decently educated them not to eat such junk food usually.
They get to eat such food only once in a year, that’s why the two kids were devouring so voraciously.
Lin Xiangwan managed to smile through her struggles. If the tabloid reporters saw this side of the Qin family’s children, she wondered how they’d sensationalize it.
"Have some soy milk, don’t choke!" Lin Xiangwan reminded them.
"I won’t!" Tongtong had decent manners while eating. His face was smeared with salad and jam though!
Ranran’s eating manner was a sight for sore eyes. He had even accidentally teared the wrapper. "I will drink once I finish eating. Experts say drinking while eating is not good for absorption. It’s healthier to drink water after a meal!"
"Wow, you sure are very knowledgeable now!" Lin Xiangwan cheerfully said.
It seems, the kids have indeed grown up.
Corner of the hallway.
Qin Muchuan, after finishing his call, was noticeably unhappy. He stressed, "I’ve said it, my wife is sick, seriously ill. I can’t leave her!"
"Can’t you just find someone to take care of her, why does it have to be you?"
"Nonsense, my wife is an orphan, with no parents or siblings. Even no mother-in-law to depend upon. Tell me, if I don’t take care of her, then who will?" Qin Muchuan irritatedly asked.
"The maids. Your family has hired a bunch of them, isn’t there a single one who can take care of her?" The other person on the call suggested.
This topic made Qin Muchuan even more enraged. "How dare you bring this up, don’t you know those maids are opportunistic? They all think my wife has fallen out of favor, they’re doing good enough by not adding to her misery. Who is willing to take care of her? Even if someone agrees to do it, who can really take care of her properly?"
"Why are your maids all like this? Maids from other families don’t behave this way!" ƒrēenovelkiss.com
"This is all thanks to you!" Qin Muchuan said angrily.
"But you should go and check. We need to know which big shot Zhou Ziqing knows!"
Qin Muchuan frowned. "You think she could have personal dealings with that person?"
"Yes... We must be careful..."
"...If I go, then what about my wife?" Qin Muchuan asked.
"Alright, in this case, I’ll send over a female bodyguard, who plays the role of a maid as well. You should be relieved now!" The other side chuckled.
"Her character must be ensured!" Qin Muchuan emphasized.
"Rest assured. Servants around me, who get to be involved in our operations, are absolutely trustworthy!" said Xiao Qingyao.
"Hmm."

Watching the closing door of Jingjing, Lin Xiangwan’s mood plummeted from its previous delight.
Lin Xiangwan was trying to get out of bed.
"Mrs. Qin, do you need to use the bathroom?"
Lin Xiangwan glanced at the recently arrived caregiver. "No, I just wanted to ask if I could go home now, I’m feeling fine!"
"No, you just started this IV infusion!" The strict caregiver, following protocol, said. "No matter what, it has to be completed!"
"I checked, this is just a cough suppressant. I don’t think I’m coughing that much!" Lin Xiangwan appeared to be the doctor herself.
The female caregiver completely ignored Lin Xiangwan. "Mrs. Qin, you just lie down!"
"I don’t want to lie down, I’m tired!"
The caregiver coldly replied. "You can sit as it is similar to lying down!"
Lin Xiangwan couldn’t help but take another look at the caregiver. She felt something was odd about her. "Did Qin Muchuan hire you?"
"Hmm..."
"Where did he find you?" Lin Xiangwan continued asking.
"Outside!"
"Outside?" Lin Xiangwan was doubtful. Would he really so careless as to randomly hire someone to take care of her? "What do you do for a living?"
"Me?" The caregiver blinked. "Of course, I’m a caregiver!"
"You haven’t always been a caregiver, right? You must have a profession!" Lin Xiangwan had strong instincts.
"No, I have always been a caregiver!"
"You seem like a soldier!" Lin Xiangwan surmised.
The caregiver paused for a moment, then continued, "What makes you say that?"
"Look at you, your standing posture is very upright, your waist is straight even when bending down and you exude a soldier’s arrogance..." Lin Xiangwan observed closely.
The caregiver let go of her seriousness. "Where do I show arrogance!"
"You may not realize it, but I know you are not a bad person!" Lin Xiangwan confirmed.
"Okay, I admit that I was a soldier, but... I’ve been decommissioned and returned home, now I am jobless, therefore I came out to work as a caregiver to earn my living!"
"Oh... female soldiers are rare, I thought you would be assigned a job!!"
"Where is it that easy!"
Lin Xiangwan nodded. "Finding a job isn’t easy for me either!"
"But you are Mrs. Qin!" The caregiver gave a slight smile.
"As a wife, it’s even more miserable. Do you think all wives are rich? Wrong, I don’t have money, and I’m about to divorce Qin Muchuan. From now on, I have to rely on myself. Luckily, I have a small restaurant now and the daily income is pretty good!"
"Hmm..."
"But I haven’t returned to my restaurant in a long time. Do you think I should go back and take a look?" Lin Xiangwan counter-questioned.
The caregiver gave up her sentimentality and returned to her seriousness. "Mrs. Qin, are you trying to fool me?"
