Chapter 59: 059 Picked Up the Wrong Phone_1 Chapter 59: 059 Picked Up the Wrong Phone_1 The lights in the room were on!

A towering figure walked into the shower room.

Soon, the sound of running water could be heard.

Then, a woman neatly dressed herself, and sat tidily waiting on one side, her hair meticulously arranged.

Qin Muchuan disliked women who lingered in the sheets after the act.

Every woman who was with him would strictly adhere to this ruthless habit.

As Qin Muchuan was just stepping out of his bathrobe, a tall and beautiful woman opened a bottle of 1980 vintage red wine and poured him a glass.

“Thank you!” Having received it, Qin Muchuan took a sip.

His actions were practiced and steady, radiating a charm that was a mix of brashness and sensuality.

Any woman who saw him would seemingly flutter toward him like a moth to flame, whatever the cost.

The hot-shot celebrity Zhou Bingbing couldn’t help but lament softly. “Mr. Qin, if you were to enter the film and television industry, I dare say you would outshine those male celebrities by miles. Nobody would be able to surpass you for many years to come!”

Qin Muchuan took another sip. “Thank you for the compliment!”

“It’s not a compliment, it’s the truth. Of course, if you did choose to enter the industry, many men would be out of a job. So, it’s probably for the best that you stay out, leaving a chance for others!” Zhou Bingbing sang his praises without letting her real intentions show.

Qin Muchuan, somewhat annoyed, furrowed his brow. Over many years, the people around him would always comply with his words. This kind of conversation really bored him.

Now when he thought about that woman who would flippantly curse ‘Bastard’, he found it quite amusing.

Thinking of her, an uncontrolled smile crept up his cold face.

“Mr. Qin, what would you like to eat? I can have it sent up?” Zhou Bingbing carefully shifted the topic, trying to attract his attention.

Mr. Qin was a connection she had painstakingly made. His favor was hard-won, not just from being selected from a pool of female celebrities, but also through fierce competition.

With Qin Muchuan’s help, she had won an international award. Her film salary had also multiplied several times from before. However, given the high rate at which female celebrities were replaced, she still needed Qin Muchuan’s influence for a while longer to increase her fame.

Therefore, pleasing him was necessary.

Qin Muchuan looked at the woman before him, his voice was deep and indifferent. “It’s not necessary. You can leave!”

“Mr. Qin…”

“Leave!”

“Yes!” The woman took a reluctant last look at him before turning to leave!

The moment the door closed, the doorbell rang.

‘Ding Dong– Ding Dong–‘

Qin Muchuan frowned, with no intention of opening the door.

‘Ding Dong– Ding Dong–‘

‘Ding Dong– Ding Dong–‘

The person outside seemed persistent. He had no choice but to head towards the entrance.

With a ‘click’, he opened the door!

When Qin Muchuan’s annoyed gaze landed on the visitor, he was stunned for a moment. “What is it?”

His indifference, colder than the Antarctic, irritated Lin Xiangwan to no end. She thrust her phone into his hand. “Your phone! Give me back mine!”

“Huh?” It took a moment for Qin Muchuan to understand. “We accidentally switched phones?”

“Yes, give me back my phone quickly!” Lin Xiangwan urged anxiously.

Qin Muchuan stepped back into his room with the phone, then brought out another similar model. The two phones were nearly identical, even down to the wear and tear on the cases. “Your phone?”

Lin Xiangwan snatched her phone back. “Yes!”

“When did we switch phones?” Qin Muchuan asked, puzzled.

Lin Xiangwan shook her head, looking baffled. “I don’t know. Maybe we mixed them up when you put yours back in the holder after answering a call.”

“Perhaps!”

Once it was pointed out to him, Qin Muchuan recalled the situation.

His phone had fallen to a position behind the car. It was she who picked it up. It could very well have been mixed up then!

“Your daughter called you. She seems quite worried about you!” Lin Xiangwan reminded him.

“Thank you!” Qin Muchuan walked back to his room, anxious to call his daughter back–

……

‘Glug– Glug– You’re my little, little apple….’

The cheerful ringtone rang out in the middle of the night. Qin Yutong, who was wide awake, quickly picked it up. “Dad, is that you??”

“Yes, I accidentally switched phones with someone earlier. I’m sorry, you must have been quite worried!!”

Qin Yutong’s delicate voice answered. “Yes, I was very worried. I was really scared when I couldn’t reach you!!”

“Hmm, I’ll be careful next time!”

“All right!” After Qin Yutong finished speaking with a downcast tone, she asked unwillingly, “Dad, how did you manage to switch phones with the lady? Were you with her?”

“Of course not, don’t imagine things. Go to sleep now, it’s too late to continue talking on the phone. Goodbye!”

“No,…” Before Qin Yutong could say anything else, the call was ended. “Dad, Dad doesn’t like me anymore!!”

Hearing his future girlfriend crying, Lin Haoran also felt a pang of sadness. “Tongtong, Uncle was just afraid of disturbing your sleep, don’t cry! Of course, if you don’t want to sleep, I can also chat with you!”

Qin Yutong glared at him fiercely. “Who wants to chat with you? A person who doesn’t even dare to remove his glasses!”

Lin Haoran pushed his glasses, saying coolly. “Because these glasses make me N times more handsome….”

“Wuwu…” Qin Yutong sobbed in a low voice. Her voice was very soft, but it made her sorrow more poignant. “My dad must be with another woman!”

“Oh…” Lin Haoran made an enlightened sound. “You mean your dad has a mistress, right? But shouldn’t your mom be the one crying, not you?”

“Shut up!” Yutong cried harder when he hit the nail on the head.

“No!”

“Wuwu… What do you know? I don’t have a mother, I’ve never had a mother. So my dad wouldn’t have a mistress, only a wife…”

“Oh…” Lin Haoran nodded. “Just like I don’t have a father, so you’re also a child from a single-parent family!”

Finding a common predicament, Qin Yutong seemed to be not as sad as before. “You don’t have a father?”

“Hm!”

“So, you’ve never seen your dad since birth? Not even once?”

“Hm!”

“Really?” Yutong could hardly believe that there were others in this world who shared her unfortunate circumstances.

Lin Haoran nodded again. “Really!”

Qin Yutong finally stopped crying. “Then, don’t you miss your dad?”

“Ah, what’s the use of missing him? My mom can’t even find where he is!” Lin Haoran said resignedly.

A tremor ran through Qin Yutong’s heart, she couldn’t help but relate his situation to her own.

They were so similar, shared the same birthday. He didn’t have a father, and she didn’t have a mother???
