147: Chapter 147 Aren't you afraid they'll cause trouble?

Han Qing's face turned red again.

"Li Ying, what nonsense are you talking..."

"Am I talking nonsense?" Li Ying raised an eyebrow.

"Look at you all: Dad's driving, Mom's sitting next to him, and the daughter is acting spoiled in the back seat. If this isn't a family of three, what is?"

Han Yurou paused for a moment, then laughed even more happily.

"Sister Li Ying is right! We are a family of three!"

Han Qing was both embarrassed and annoyed; she really wanted to hit someone this time.

But Li Ying had already slipped away laughing.

"You two continue, I won't disturb you."

The door closed, leaving Han Qing standing there with a face as red as a tomato.

Han Yurou leaned over and took her mother's arm.

"Mom, don't be shy, Sister Li Ying was just joking."

"You're still talking!" Han Qing glared at her.

Han Yurou stuck out her tongue, but she didn't let go of her mother's arm.

Qin Lin looked at the mother and daughter, feeling a warmth in his heart.

Days like this were indeed quite nice.

In the evening, Han Qing found an opportunity to speak with Qin Lin alone.

"Qin Lin, tonight..." she lowered her voice.

"Should I go to your place?"

Qin Lin looked at her, knowing what she meant.

"Okay."

Han Qing nodded and was about to leave when Han Yurou's voice came from behind.

"Mom, what secrets are you two whispering about?"

Han Qing was startled and turned around to see her daughter had appeared out of nowhere.

"No... nothing."

"Really?"

Han Yurou looked at her suspiciously.

"Mom, are you planning to go find Brother Lin tonight?"

Han Qing: "..."

How did this child know everything?

Han Yurou smiled: "I want to go too!"

"What are you going for?" Han Qing grew anxious.

"You..."

"I'm going to chat with Brother Lin." Han Yurou said righteously, "Since you're just chatting anyway, let's all chat together."

Han Qing looked at Qin Lin, her eyes pleading for help.

Qin Lin was also somewhat helpless.

But Han Yurou was already pulling on his arm.

"Brother Lin, you won't reject me, right?"

She blinked, looking pitiful.

Qin Lin looked at her, then at Han Qing, and finally sighed.

"Come along then."

Han Qing: "..."

Han Yurou jumped for joy.

"Great! Let's watch a movie together tonight! Doesn't the RV have an entertainment System? Let's watch a movie!"

Han Qing looked at her, both annoyed and amused.

Was this child truly oblivious, or was she doing it on purpose?

Nighttime, in Bedroom No. 000.

The three of them sat on the bed as an old movie played on the holographic screen in front of them.

Han Yurou leaned against her mother, her eyes fixed on the screen.

"Mom, look, it's so romantic."

Han Qing gave an absent-minded "mm-hmm."

She had originally planned to work hard with Qin Lin tonight.

Instead, the three of them were watching a movie.

Qin Lin sat on the other side, occasionally looking at the screen and occasionally at the mother and daughter.

Noticing his gaze, Han Yurou turned and flashed him a smile.

Qin Lin smiled back and continued watching the movie.

When the movie reached a classic scene, Han Yurou suddenly asked:

"Brother Lin, if we were on the Titanic, would you treat me like that too?"

Qin Lin was taken aback.

"No."

Han Yurou pouted: "Why?"

"Because our RV won't sink."

Han Yurou paused, then laughed.

"Brother Lin, you're such a straight man!"

Han Qing also laughed.

The atmosphere lightened.

As the movie continued, Han Yurou gradually became sleepy, leaning against her mother with her eyes half-closed.

"Mom..."

She said drowsily, "You guys continue... I'm falling asleep..."

Han Qing looked at her, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

This child, even while falling asleep she says things like that?

Qin Lin gently stood up, took a blanket, and covered Han Yurou.

Watching his gentle movements, Han Qing felt a warmth in her heart.

"Qin Lin," she said softly, "I'm sorry, tonight..."

"It's nothing." Qin Lin shook his head, "This is quite nice too."

Han Qing looked at him, her eyes filled with apology and gratitude.

The light and shadows of the movie drifted through the room.

The three of them sat like that until the movie ended.

Han Yurou was already fast asleep.

Qin Lin picked her up, carried her back to Bedroom No. 003, and gently laid her on her own bed.

Han Qing followed behind, watching his back as a wave of complex emotions surged in her heart.

This man was truly good to her and her daughter.

After tucking Han Yurou in, Qin Lin turned to see Han Qing standing at the door.

The two shared a look and tacitly remained silent.

Back in Bedroom No. 000, Han Qing said softly:

"Qin Lin, tonight..."

"I know." Qin Lin looked at her, "You don't need to explain."

Han Qing walked over and leaned into his embrace.

"That child Yu Rou..." she said softly, "I don't know what she's thinking either."

Qin Lin gently stroked her back.

"Take it slow."

Han Qing nodded.

Then she looked up at him.

"Qin Lin, I'll help you..."

Qin Lin was stunned: "Aunt Qing, you..."

"Don't talk."

Han Qing said softly, her face slightly flushed.

"Even though we didn't... tonight, I can use other ways."

Qin Lin looked at her, a warm current rising in his heart.

He really did need to release some fire; his body's energy had been far too vigorous lately.

"Aunt Qing... what ways?"

Han Qing didn't let him finish.

The lights were soft, and the night was gentle.

Much later, Han Qing left Bedroom No. 000 and returned to Bedroom No. 003.

Pushing the door open, she was stunned.

Han Yurou was lying on her bed instead of her own.

"Yu Rou?" Han Qing walked over.

"Why are you sleeping in my bed?"

Han Yurou opened her eyes groggily.

"Mom, you're back?"

She moved over a bit.

"I saved a spot for you."

Han Qing looked at her helplessly.

"Why didn't you sleep in your own bed? Why come to mine?"

"I wanted to sleep with Mom." Han Yurou acted spoiled.

"You're already so grown up, can't you still sleep with your mother?"

Han Qing was both annoyed and amused.

"Still like a little child."

"Before Mom, I'll always be a child."

Han Yurou patted the pillow beside her.

"Quick, come here, the bed is already warmed up."

Han Qing shook her head but lay down anyway.

Han Yurou immediately leaned in and hugged her arm.

"Mom, you have Brother Lin's scent on you."

Han Qing's face turned red.

"What nonsense..."

"Really."

Han Yurou sniffed.

"It's faint, but I smell it."

Han Qing didn't know what to say.

She licked her lips.

Han Yurou didn't ask further, she just hugged her mother's arm and closed her eyes.

"Mom, goodnight."

Han Qing looked at her daughter's peaceful sleeping face, her heart full of mixed emotions.

This child...

She sighed and closed her eyes too.

The moonlight streamed in through the window, falling upon the mother and daughter.

Bedroom No. 003 was warm and quiet.

In the living room, Su Yuran and Li Ying were not yet asleep.

The two sat on the sofa, drinking hot tea.

"Did you see? Lately, that mother and daughter and Qin Lin are practically like a family."

Su Yuran smiled: "I saw."

"And you're just watching?" Li Ying raised an eyebrow.

"Your sister Su Yuling has also been running to the Drivers Cabin lately, bringing strawberries and fruit. Aren't you afraid they'll cause a commotion?"

Su Yuran took a sip of tea and said unhurriedly:

"I'm not afraid."
