Turning Antagonist to Protagonist: He is Both Soft and Fierce-Chapter 384 - 377: No Matter How Much You Love, It Can’t Be Your Life
Lin Qiao trusted him? Not likely. In her last life, he was the one who ruined everything. Would he really fear an imperial edict?
But she couldn’t say that, "I know you can have the Emperor take back his order. Considering how I’ve taken care of Grandpa and Grandma these past years, let’s divorce."
"You can see the child whenever you want; I won’t stop you from visiting them."
Since the script had ended, there was no need to continue acting. As for the feelings inside, she would just "keep them at the bottom of the box."
No matter how much you like someone, it can’t be your life.
She didn’t have nine lives to let the villain play with.
There was no future with Song Tingfan; just as he didn’t trust her, she didn’t trust him.
Moreover, she was the kind of person who held grudges. During those months of pregnancy, she could understand him, but she couldn’t get past that hurdle.
At the mention of "divorce," Song Tingfan’s eyes turned cold, and the imperial edict in his hand crumpled.
She despised him.
Realizing this, he suddenly darkened, and a few words escaped his throat, "Do you think I believe you? That I’d let you go?"
"Xu Dagui is in my hands. If you dare run, then he’s the one who will suffer in your place."
He didn’t know what else he could use to keep her...
Threatening her again with Xu Dagui, Lin Qiao’s face turned a bit ugly, her fiery nature flaring up, "Song Tingfan, can you act normal? Xu Dagui is just an innocent person; he didn’t wrong you."
"You’re innocently hurt, but not everyone is to blame. You should seek revenge on those who hurt you, not drag innocent people into it."
"How is this any different from what you did back then?"
As soon as she said it, she regretted it. Her greatest "enemy" was right in front of her.
Dead!!
"Shut up!"
The words "back then" dragged out the past, Song Tingfan’s face was now completely cold, his voice slightly raised as he continued, "Don’t think I won’t touch you. If it weren’t for Grandma, I would have kicked you out long ago."
So it was for Song Qin. Lin Qiao couldn’t deny it, though it made her uncomfortable to hear. She stared at him, holding back a stomach full of curses, and turned to leave.
The child’s mind is sensitive. Even though Lin Qiao wasn’t in his presence, he still sensed it, grabbed some candy, unwrapped it, and fed it to her, coaxing her, "Mom, eat candy."
Looking at her soft, adorable son, Lin Qiao felt much better, patting his head, "You eat it. But don’t eat too much." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
"Mom eats."
Lin Ling clumsily stood on tiptoe to feed her, so Lin Qiao had to open her mouth and eat it. At that moment, Song Tingfan came in, "Change your clothes and come out for dinner."
Lin Qiao couldn’t help but roll her eyes. He had just scared her, and now he was inviting her to dinner, "No need, we’ll go home in a bit."
Song Tingfan was briefly startled but surprisingly said nothing, "Alright."
Lin Qiao looked at him in surprise and quickly understood why.
They had just arrived at the village when Song Tingfan caught up on horseback.
Before she had a chance to say anything, a woman carrying a vegetable basket glanced at her, seemingly not recognizing her, and looked at Lin Ling, "Ling’er, where are your mom and dad?"
Lin Ling held Lin Qiao’s hand, happily saying, "Auntie, this is my mom. My mom looks like this without the black spots. Isn’t she pretty?"
Lin Qiao couldn’t help but laugh; this child praised everyone wherever he went, his mouth sweetened like honey.
"Xu Dagui’s wife?" The woman was utterly shocked. My goodness, Da Gui’s wife is so beautiful.
Lin Qiao nodded, offering an explanation, "It was inconvenient to go out before, so I just darkened my face."
"No wonder Ling’er is so good-looking. We all thought you stole this child with Da Gui."
The woman, quick with her words, accidentally spoke her mind, her face turning awkward as she glanced at the man beside her, who happened to be the same Lord who had choked someone last time.
Looking at them, Ling’er seemed to be a carbon copy of him.
Oh my, Xu Dagui’s wife actually didn’t have Xu Dagui’s child.
No wonder, Xu Dagui treated his wife so well, turns out the affair was with a Lord,
Her gaze wandered, and Lin Qiao didn’t need to guess to know what she was thinking, "..."
"We’ll go home first."
After saying this to the woman, the three of them went back home, with Song Tingfan surveying the courtyard, where a man’s, woman’s, and child’s clothes hung from a line.
Finally, he stopped on the man’s clothes, narrowing his eyes slightly.
Lin Qiao naturally noticed his gaze but paid him no mind, picking up the clothes on the ground, shaking them twice, and tossing them into a basin.
It was getting late, she looked at the child, "Ling’er, go to Grandpa Wei and buy a pound of meat."
This was something Lin Ling did often, so he happily nodded, then ran into the house, and soon after, ran back out.
