Chapter Sixteen If You Were Mommy

n-chen with no hope at all. 。Hearing his grandfather's firm attitude, Qiao Shunchen was furious inside, but he couldn't argue back. He could only remain silent. 。Grandfather couldn't accept the fact t...After playing with her child until the afternoon, Qin Jingwen took half a month home. However, Xuxuan was reluctant to leave.

"Daddy, can I stay at Aunt's house for a night"

Qiao Zixuan pleaded with Qiao Shunchen, but he felt his hope was slim because Daddy rarely agreed to his requests.

"No..."

"Sure..."

Qiao Shunchen and Qin Jingwen almost spoke at the same time, one with hope, the other crushing it.

Qin Jingwen raised her eyes and was caught off guard by Qiao Shunchen's angry gaze. Her heart clenched, the memory of their just-finished wild kiss swirling in her mind.

This man exudes a satanic aura, possessing a compelling presence that can ensnare you. It's best not to look at him too closely, lest you become hopelessly lost in his gaze.

Qin Jingwen hurriedly dodged and smoothed her racing heart.

"Whatever you want."

Qin Jingwen didn't say another word. If she did, people would accuse her of being manipulative again.

"...."

However, before Qiao Shunchen could speak, Half-Moon took the lead.

"Uncle, please let my brother come to our house. Just once, can't you If you're worried, you can come with us."

"Half a month."

Qin Jingwen didn't expect that Ban Yue would once again invite Qiao Shunchen without permission. She tried to stop it, but it was too late.

"Mommy, Uncle has been playing with us all day. Why don't you cook dinner for him"

The half-moon principle still stands, whatever one owes must be repaid immediately. That's what Mommy taught her.

Okay, uncle, I'm just hungry. Let's have dinner at your place tonight.

To everyone's surprise, Qiao Shunchen unexpectedly agreed to Ban Yue's request for half a month. Perhaps he was compensating Ban Yue for her disappointment in him.

Thank you, Daddy!

Among all, Qiao Zixuan was the happiest. His dad agreed too readily, making him feel happiness came too suddenly.

Joe Shunchen let the driver and assistant go home, and personally drove the remaining three to Qin Jingwen's apartment.

After getting off the car, Qin Jingwen took the two children upstairs first, while Qiao Shunchen had something to attend to and didn't go up with them.

Jo Zi-xuan saw that his father hadn't caught up, and quietly took Qin Jingwen's hand.

"Auntie, if you were my mommy, that would be great."

Qin Jingwen unexpectedly looked at Qiao Zixuan.

Why

"No reason, just like it."

As for why, Qiao Zixuan didn't know. He only knew that he really liked being with Auntie. He only knew that Auntie could persuade his dad.

Don't like Mommy

The child's answer left Qin Jingwen feeling uneasy and perplexed. She couldn't fathom how such a young child could utter such words.

"Mommy doesn't like me. She never plays with me, never sleeps with me, and never takes me to school... It seems like she has never done anything with me."

Qiao Zixuan sighed, and his mood improved slightly after mentioning his mother.

Qiao Zixuan's words made Qin Jingwen's heart ache. She looked at Ban Yue in confusion, and Ban Yue also looked at her with a pitiful expression.

"Mommy, big brother is so pitiful. I will definitely be nice to my brother from now on."

"Well, for half a month, you must play with your brother more and don't let him be lonely."

Qin Jing finished admonishing Ban Yue and continued to say to Qiao Zi Xuan.

"Huanhuan, from now on, Auntie will let you experience everything Mommy hasn't done with you."

Gently stroking Qiao Zixuan's head, my heart ached unbearably. Such a poor child, even with excellent living conditions, he couldn't feel maternal love. He had to endure this pain at such a young age.

Back home, Qin Jingwen let the two children play in the living room and started preparing dinner.

"Ding dong…"

Half an hour later, the doorbell rang.

"Half a month..."

"Huanhuan..."

Qin Jingwen was chopping vegetables in the kitchen while calling out to her two children, trying to get them to open the door. But the kids were engrossed in their play and couldn't hear her at all.

Qin Jingwen turned her head to look at the children who were playing happily. She couldn't bear to disturb them, so she went to open the door herself.

“......”

She didn't even need to think, she knew who it was outside. She opened the door, glanced at Qiao Shunchen, and without a word, hurried back into the kitchen.

Qin Jingwen returned to the kitchen, glanced at the simmering bone broth, then prepared to continue chopping vegetables. Reaching for her knife, she didn't get it and was unexpectedly grabbed by Qiao Shunchen's hand.

"What are you doing again"

Qin Jingwen panicked and refused.

"Come here."

Joe Shunchen simply kept a composed face and directly pulled Qin Jingwen to sit down on the chair.

"My hand was injured, so I applied medicine and cooked."

Jo Shunchen's seemingly indifferent remark touched Qin Jingwen's nerve.

To her surprise, he wasn't back with them. He had gone out to buy medicine, and even more surprisingly, this cold, bone-chilling man actually applied medicine to her wounds. It seemed completely out of character for a man of his icy demeanor.

"I'll do it myself."

……”

Jo Shunchen remained silent and wouldn't allow Qin Jingwen to apply medicine herself.

He used a medical cotton swab dipped in antidote, gently wiping Qin Jingwen's injured hand back, and carefully sticking on a bandage. Finally, he somehow got out a pair of rubber food-grade gloves.

"Put it on, and a wound exposed to water will get infected."

After coldly stating her words, she stood up and went directly to the living room.

Qin Jingwen was moved by Qiao Shunchen's meticulous and gentle actions. She was stunned for a moment, just staring blankly at his back as he walked towards the living room.

This back...

Qin Jingwen suddenly gasped, the back was strikingly similar to another she knew, even the walking posture was identical.

No, no, there are too many similar people in the world. The similarity between these two people is just a coincidence.

Qin Jingwen came back to her senses and continued cooking.

"Xuanxuan, are there any foods you can't eat"

Qin Jingwen walked into the living room to ask Qiao Zixuan, fearing she had made something the child wouldn't like to eat.

"Anything goes, except for sea fish."

Joe Hsu was fiddling with his toys while answering Qin Jingwen.

"Seafood Why"

Qin Jingwen suddenly became nervous.

He is allergic to seafood.

Joe Shunchen didn't put down the magazine in his hand, but answered the question for Joe Zuxen instead.

"... "

Is she allergic to seafood Qin Jingwen was a little shocked.

"Uncle, I'm allergic to seafood too. I have so much in common with Brother Xuanxuan."

Qin Jingwen was still in shock, but Ban Yue had already blurted it out.

Half-Moon's words also caught Qiao Shunchen's attention. He raised his eyes from the magazine, looking at Half-Moon in disbelief. Then he looked back at Qin Jingwen, whose face was full of shock, which made him very concerned.

Qin Jingwen's heart pounded inexplicably, a chaotic feeling of disarray washing over her, leaving her feeling lost and confused.

Returning to the kitchen in a daze, Qin Jingwen was still thinking about "sea fish". The similarities between Xuan Xuan and Ban Yue were just too numerous, forcing her to remember the child she had sent away again and again.

"You're spacing out again, dinner will be breakfast soon."

Suddenly, Qiao Shunchen's voice appeared, pulling Qin Jingwen's wandering soul back.

Dinner will be ready soon.

"Let me be her father."

Jo Shunchen's cold opening left Qin Jingwen stunned.

"Hmm..."

"The kid finished playing around."

Qin Jingwen felt a little embarrassed.

"I refused."

Qiao Shunchen still said coldly.

"Refusal. End of discussion."

"If you want to seduce me, just come yourself. Don't use your child as a stepping stone."

Joe Shunchen's cold face instantly tightened, the warning in his voice unmistakable.

"You..."

“Okay, I admit I was flirting with you. I came back to work because I knew you applied to the company. I've had my eyes on you for a while now. Does that satisfy you”

“……”

Qiao Shunchen's face was instantly covered in frost, his black eyes darkened and burst with murderous intent.ure. 。But I must set a goal for myself and strive toward it. Failing once, twice or even more times is inevitable, but as long as I keep trying, there will be one time when I succeed. 。“ Qiao Zixu...
