My CEO Baby Daddy Keeps Falling for My Tricks-Chapter 568 - 575 No Longer Trying Hard_1

Lin Xiangwan increasingly felt herself to be a redundant presence, forcing a bitter smile. "Of course you can play!"

Children will always be children. You can’t instill them with negative thoughts.

"Play with Duoduo. Mom is going back to her room!" Lin Xiangwan patted her child’s head and walked towards their room.

Old Lady Lin, who hadn’t seen her that afternoon, saw this as an opportunity to scold Lin Xiangwan. "Oh, you actually remembered to come home. I thought you would never come back!"

Lin Xiangwan gave a glance to her grandmother, and respectfully called out, "Grandpa, Grandma!"

"Hmph!" The old lady was still very angry. "The child has returned, yet you didn’t even bother to come back. So you went searching for my grandson."

The old lady glanced at her grandson and said even more unhappily, "Can’t you restrain yourself? Can’t you bear to part from my grandson even for a minute? He’s busy with work, yet you still bother him! Ah, the world these days. The younger generation’s knowledge doesn’t expand, but their temper does. And they are so shameless."

Lin Xiangwan no longer had the energy to quarrel with her grandmother. She just stood there, passively accepting the old lady’s scolding.

It wasn’t that she wanted to take it silently, but these words could no longer hurt her.

No matter how others reproached her, treated her badly, none of it was as hurtful as what Qin Muchuan did to her. For these insignificant matters, why not let the old lady feel better about herself?

At least she would have done something good!

Seeing Lin Xiangwan not react at all, the old lady grew even angrier. "Your attitude is too arrogant, isn’t it? You’re not even paying attention to what I’m saying, are you?"

Indeed, Lin Xiangwan wasn’t paying attention. She only saw her grandmother’s mouth moving, but as for what she was saying, she had no clue.

Qin Muchuan took his grandmother aside and bucked up to her appeasingly, saying, "Grandma, don’t be angry. If she does anything wrong, tell me. I’ll teach her a lesson back in our room, she won’t dare to do it again!"

Lin Xiangwan looked at Qin Muchuan furiously. "You’re teaching me? Qin Muchuan, what right do you have to teach me? What kind of a joke are you making! Don’t pretend to be decent here, do you think you have the qualification to do so?"

Grandma Qin was furious as well. "Who are you referring to? You’re too presumptuous! You would actually speak to your husband like this? Don’t forget whose home you are in, how does Qin Muchuan not have the right to speak?"

Feeling isolated wherever she went, Lin Xiangwan just smirked. "Grandma, your reminder is very appropriate. Qin Muchuan, did you hear that? Please expedite my departure from this house to give both you and me relief~ Don’t let me continue taking advantage of living in your house, I am genuinely sorry for doing so!"

After speaking, Lin Xiangwan marched back to her room. freewebnσvel.cøm

The old lady who was standing downstairs didn’t know what to do, she looked up blankly. "What’s wrong with this child? Who has she flared up at so badly?"

The old lady, not as aggressive as before, asked somewhat lost.

Qin Muchuan laughed it off and tried to downplay the situation. "Grandma, it’s not about you, it’s about me. She wanted to go to work earlier, but I wouldn’t let her. She’s just having a temper now. She doesn’t care for anything at the moment. Don’t bother arguing with her, young children are like that!"

Old Lady Qin was a bit intimidated by Lin Xiangwan’s anger, her previous fury had disappeared. However, she still said to her grandson with some complaints, "Since she’s young, it’s right that you should give her some leeway, but you can’t spoil her excessively. Otherwise, she will end up walking all over you. If she wants to work, that’s not impossible. Why don’t we arrange for an office job for her from your grandpa’s contacts? It’s nice and leisurely, no work stress, and it satisfies her wishes!"

Qin Muchuan just laughed. "She doesn’t want that kind of job, grandma. You don’t have to worry about her!"

"Ding, ding, ding——"

At that moment, Qin Muchuan’s phone started to ring.

He picked it up, glanced at it, and then directly hung up.

"Who was it calling at this time?" Grandma Qin asked with interest.

"No one, just a friend!"

Before he could finish speaking, the ringtone sounded again.

Qin Muchuan left the house to take the call outside.

Grandma Qin craned her neck to look outside, and soon Qin Muchuan walked back in.

"What? Are you going out?" Grandma Qin asked, clearly not pleased.

"There’s something that needs to be handled, yes, I do have to go out!" Qin Muchuan admitted honestly.

"No, you haven’t been home for dinner for days, always busy with things outside!"

"Grandma, I’ll be back very soon!" Qin Muchuan tried to negotiate with the elderly lady.

"Even if you have to go out, you must finish your meal before you leave!" The old lady insisted, then called the butler to start the meal immediately.

The kitchen also sped up their pace.

Old Lady Qin glanced upstairs and asked the housekeeper to go call. "Tell young Miss to come down for dinner. What is she making such a fuss about in this family!"

The butler nodded and went upstairs.

Knocking on the door, the housekeeper unlocked the door and entered. "Young Madam, the old lady has called for you to come down for dinner!"

Lin Xiangwan was busy checking information on her iPad. "I don’t want to eat!"

"But..."

"No buts, Aunt Liu, you can go downstairs!"

Seeing young Madam in such a dejected state, the housekeeper really felt sorry for her. "Young Madam, the Young Master is about to go out, don’t you want to ask him?"

"..." Lin Xiangwan didn’t utter a word.

Why should she ask him?

"Ah, men are like this. If you loosen the leash on them, it opens opportunities for other women. Young Madam, you must not give the Young Master this chance!" Aunt Liu said, out of genuine concern.

Lin Xiangwan put down her iPad and looked out the window. "If his heart is with someone else, I can’t bring it back. I don’t want to do anything futile anymore."

If she didn’t care, she wouldn’t get hurt. She would never do anything that might cause her heartache again.

"Young Madam, you are wrong to think that way!"

"Aunt Liu, you go ahead. I ate a lot today and I don’t want dinner. And I don’t want anyone to disturb me! Close the door on your way out!"

The housemaid gave young Madam one last look, sighed, and left.

Upon hearing this, Old Lady Qin couldn’t help but grumble. "Muchuan, my dear, I see your wife really doesn’t take you seriously. And to think you treat her so well!"

Qin Muchuan ate his food without tasting it.

"As I see it, she doesn’t love you at all, so she doesn’t care about you!"

The two children looked at each other.

Ranran retorted, unconvinced, "My mom definitely loves dad!"

Qin Yutong also firmly nodded her head. "Yes, Great-Grandma, you must have misunderstood!"
