The Baby I Lost Is Actually with My Ex-Husband!-Chapter 138 - 138 Theres Something I Want to Ask You

Chapter 138: Chapter 138: There’s Something I Want to Ask You Chapter 138 -138: There’s Something I Want to Ask You “Wahh!!”

Han was provoked by Huo Tingdong’s “shameless audacity” and slapped his face with a tiny hand.

Huo Tingdong grabbed his little hand firmly, his tone turning serious, “Haven’t I taught you that you must not hit people in the face?” Saying this, he pretended to open his mouth to bite Han’s hand.

Han, terrified, curled his hand at his chest, glaring at him warily, looking just like a wronged little bunny.

Lin Qi kissed his face soothingly and coaxed, “Baby Han, be good, don’t be scared. If he bites you, I’ll bite him.”

Han clung to Lin Qi affectionately.

Only Aunt Qiqi knew how to pamper him…

He was moved beyond words!

Huo Tingdong watched Han cling onto Lin Qi like a koala and for a moment, he felt somewhat dazed.

This “motherly love and filial piety” scene somehow gave him a sense of warmth.

Deep into the night.

Lin Qi couldn’t fall asleep as she tossed and turned.

She turned on the light, sat down at the desk, and took out those documents, carefully comparing the photos again one by one.

Huo Tingdong had said, all the data of the doctors and nurses from Aiyou Maternal and Child Hospital, including the “temporary workers” without formal contracts, were all in here.

The nurse who delivered her baby must be among them.

Although it had been seven years, she was not giving up.

Racking her brains, Lin Qi’s finger moved across each photo, not moving to the next one until she had scrutinized each several times.

Unknowingly, dawn broke.

She gradually grew tired and sleepy, and from overuse of her eyes, they started feeling dry.

Lin Qi opened the drawer, took out some eye drops she had prepared, and applied a few drops to her eyes. Her vision cleared, and she continued to look down the last page.

Finally…

On the last page, she saw a photo.

A nurse smiled at the camera with a full grin. Despite her attempting to tuck in her jaw slightly, if one looks closely when it’s enlarged, they could still see the half-moon-shaped red mole on her chin.

It was very small, at the right angle, and easy to miss.

Her facial features felt somewhat unfamiliar, not very memorable.

Single eyelids, a slightly swollen face, and not a full-body photo, but it was apparent that she had a plump figure.

But Lin Qi quickly remembered something. Back when she was recuperating in the hospital room, she overheard a few nurses chatting outside. She was drowsy but still had some memory points.

Two nurses were discussing the popular facial threading lifts at the time.

The nurse who helped with her delivery mentioned that she just had a nose lift and double eyelid surgery, her skin became tight, her face looked much smaller and much more firm.

Could it be…

This nurse had minor cosmetic procedures.

This photo was taken before she started her job, hence before her cosmetic procedures, which is why she looked different from the person Lin Qi saw, and why she didn’t recognize her at first glance.

Was it her?

Lin Qi studied her name carefully.

“Zheng Xuanyi.”

Could it be… her?

Lin Qi was slightly shocked.

The next day, Lin Qi didn’t wake up until the afternoon.

Momo and Han hadn’t finished school yet, and Huo Tingdong had gone to the company, not at home.

Only she and the nanny were at home.

After Lin Qi bathed and freshened up, she changed clothes and left her room. The nanny, who was cleaning, saw her awake and immediately asked, “Miss Lin, you’re awake. Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?”

“Okay.”

Lin Qi sat down at the dining table and made a call to Huo Tingdong.

It was Mo Ke who answered the phone.

“Hello?”

Lin Qi asked, “Is Huo Tingdong there?”

Mo Ke laughed, “Is this Miss Lin? Mr. Huo is in a meeting, and I’m holding onto his phone.”

Lin Qi inquired, “When is his meeting over?”

Mo Ke replied, “I don’t know the exact time the meeting ends, but once it does, I’ll have him call you back, okay?”

Lin Qi nodded.

She had just woken up and was still somewhat groggy.

Mo Ke hesitated, “Miss Lin? Have you hung up?”

Only then did Lin Qi realize that nodding over the phone was pointless as Mo Ke couldn’t see her.

She laughed and said, “Okay, I’ll hang up now.” After hanging up, she checked her phone.

Surprisingly, there were several missed calls.

She recognized the number.

Even though it wasn’t saved with a contact name, she knew it was Mr. Lu’s, as he had never changed his number over so many years.

Hesitant for a moment, Lin Qi still returned the call.

“Hello?” The other end conveyed Mr. Lu’s indifferent voice, “Qiqi?”

“I saw you called me. My phone was on silent while I was sleeping, so I didn’t hear it,” Lin Qi paused before probing, “Did you call me for something?”

Mr. Lu asked, “Are you free? I’d like to see you.”

Lin Qi hesitated.

She was free, but what did Mr. Lu want to meet her for?

Wait a minute.

Mr. Lu…

He’s the Director of Mingde Hospital, the Lu Family controls the shares of many private hospitals, and Mr. Lu is an insider in the medical system. Perhaps he could find out the whereabouts of that nurse.

“Okay, sure,” Lin Qi agreed to meet, “When?”

Mr. Lu said, “Send me your location, I’ll come to pick you up.”

“Alright. Actually, I have a favor to ask you.”

Lin Qi hung up the phone and sent Mr. Lu an address.

Soon, Mr. Lu texted back: Wait for me for 30 minutes.

The nanny brought over a hot meal and warmly said, “Miss Lin, you must be hungry. Eat something!”

Knowing that Lin Qi had slept until noon without getting up, the nanny knew she must have been up late and didn’t wake her, but left her some food.

The nanny served Lin Qi rice, who was very hungry and wolfed down her meal.

After eating, Lin Qi stood up and told the nanny, “I’m going out in a bit. If I come back late tonight, tell Huo Tingdong not to wait for me for dinner.”

The nanny nodded, asking with concern, “Miss Lin, where are you going?”

Lin Qi explained, “To meet a friend. I have an appointment with him, and moreover, I want to ask him for a favor.” After saying that, she took her bag and left.

Basement level.

Mr. Lu’s car was waiting in place.

As Lin Qi walked out of the elevator lobby, Mr. Lu got out of his car, kindly opened the passenger door like a gentleman.

Lin Qi was a bit nervous, “Mr. Lu, you didn’t have to come out to meet me…”

Her somewhat unfamiliar address made Mr. Lu frown slightly, but he just smiled faintly, “Get in.”

“Okay.”

Lin Qi clenched her bag’s chain and sat in the car, while Mr. Lu returned to the driver’s seat, buckled up, and turned the car around.

Parking garage exit.

Mr. Lu’s car drove out of the garage, crossing paths with a Maybach.

Maybach driver’s seat.

Through the car window, Huo Tingdong saw a familiar figure in the oncoming car’s passenger seat.

Lin Qi…

Sitting next to her was Mr. Lu.

A sharp screeching of brakes echoed.

The Maybach abruptly stopped mid-slope.

Huo Tingdong looked in the rear-view mirror, the car had driven out of the garage and gradually faded into the distance.

He pulled out his phone, flipped through it to Lin Qi’s number, his eyes deepening.
