My CEO Baby Daddy Keeps Falling for My Tricks-Chapter 793 - 800 Unfolding Secret Life12_1

Qin Muchuan’s coarse fingers lightly touched her cheek, and with just a brush, Lin Xiangwan immediately furrowed her brows and moved.

He was in turmoil internally. Initially, he didn’t want to let go of her, but in the end, he turned around and walked away.

With a ’click’, the door closed. Suddenly, Lin Xiangwan sat upright.

"Who’s there?"

As she asked, she turned on the light and the room brightened.

Hanhan remained unaffected and slept through, while Tongtong and Ranran rubbed their eyes and came over. "Mom, what happened? Did you have a nightmare?"

Lin Xiangwan panting heavily, scanned the room and even went down to the floor, moving around every corner.

In the end, she was disappointed. "There’s nobody!"

Ranran yawned and complained. "Mom, why are you shouting randomly, preventing me from sleeping!"

"But I felt like someone came in!" whispered the mother.

The two children became alert and pulled each other closer.

Ranran then asked his sister. "Did you see anybody?"

Tongtong looked around and shook her head. "No, what about you? Did you see anyone?"

"I only saw mom, Hanhan, and sister!"

The two children turned to their mother and pleaded. "Mom, please don’t scare us, okay?"

Lin Xiangwan pulled the two children closer and whispered an apology. "Sorry, mom was just overthinking and ended up scaring you two!"

"Ah, it’s fine. We know that women always overthink. Whether it’s real or fake, they always overthink!" Ranran sympathetically said.

Lin Xiangwan felt embarrassed hearing her son’s words and felt stupid at the same time. How could Qin Muchuan come to see her? It’s true that he is now busy with another woman.

But the feeling just now was so real. It was as if she could smell the scent of his soap, a faint hint of mint that was exceptionally refreshing.

She could also feel him gently stroking her cheek. The distinctive deep creases on his fingertips...

Suddenly, Lin Xiangwan grabbed her cotton coat and put it on. "Tongtong, Ranran, you two stay in the room. Mom is going outside for a bit!"

Having said that, she hurried out. There was no one in the corridor.

The moment she ran outside, she saw a car driving off into the distance, and then its lights disappeared into the night.

"Xiaolin, why did you run outside?" The commander and his wife looked surprised seeing Lin Xiangwan.

Lin Xiangwan also frowned upon seeing the couple. "Commander, Sister-in-law, why are you... still up so late?"

The commander nodded. "Oh, we had a bit more work to do today, so I had my wife accompany me in the office for a while!"

The commander’s wife nodded quickly. "Exactly, isn’t New Year’s coming up? There are a lot of miscellaneous things to be done. In a few days, it’s going to get even busier!"

It’s true that it’s the end of the year, but this base mainly deals with living accommodations and safety concerns. What could be so urgent to work so late into the night?

And they don’t even celebrate the Lunar New Year, so it doesn’t make sense, right?

Lin Xiangwan glanced at where the lights had disappeared and asked in confusion. "It seems that a car just left. Did someone come by?"

The commander’s wife looked in the direction of Lin Xiangwan suspiciously. "Did someone leave? I didn’t notice. Who could leave at this late hour? Xiaolin, you must have seen wrong!"

"Really?" Lin Xiangwan shook her head. "No, I didn’t see wrong!"

The commander interjected. "It must be the light from outside the base. The local government is working on a lighting project because New Year’s is coming up. The lights stay on longer, so it might have shone into our base!"

Lin Xiangwan nodded. "I see. Haha, I thought someone was taken back to the city!"

"Look at you, always anxious." The commander’s wife chuckled and then asked teasingly. "Xiaolin, tell the truth. Are you missing your husband?"

Missing him?

How could that be?

Lin Xiangwan shook her head again. "No way, we’re about to divorce, why would I miss him? I need to go back, the kids are still in the room!"

"Alright, go back!"

Said the commander’s wife.

After she left, the commander’s wife curiously asked, "I wonder what Xiaoqin is up to. He clearly likes Xiaolin a lot, but it seems she has been deeply hurt by him. You men, why can’t you just be honest with your wives? Do you have to make your wife sad to show your heroism?"

The commander frowned and sighed, "That’s not how it goes. Soldiers are all about organizational discipline. When superiors assign tasks and order us to be silent, even if a knife is plunged into our chest, what cannot be said, cannot be said. Even though Xiaoqin is no longer part of the organization, maybe he is on a mission?"

Now, the commander is only responsible for the accommodation of the logistics family members. What exactly Qin Muchuan is up to, he is not quite sure and of course he cannot disclose that.

**********

Back in her room, Lin Xiangwan fell into deep thought again.

While chatting with the commander and his wife just now, the commander’s wife seemed obviously flustered while talking, was she lying?

The brightness was definitely due to a car leaving, and she genuinely felt that Qin Muchuan had been there.

She was very familiar with that feeling.

Qin Muchuan was here. He came to see her, but why would he do it so secretly?

Why was she allowed to live in this secret base? This place is mostly military families, she is not a military family, so why could she stay here?

Was it just because Qin Muchuan contributed a lot to this place?

It can’t be for this reason, this is a base, not a hotel, not a holiday resort.

This place is for ensuring the safety of people, and it’s specifically for special populations.

If just anyone could come in, then it wouldn’t be a base.

Lin Xiangwan suddenly had a daring guess. Could it be... Qin Muchuan is still working for the troops?

And it’s a very dangerous job?

Could he have sent her here because he was afraid that she and the kids might get hurt?

As soon as this idea came up, her heart started racing uncontrollably.

She couldn’t help but feel anxious and different frightening scenarios played out in her mind.

Qin Muchuan was in danger.

"No, no, no!" she whispered out loud. "Qin Muchuan, you can’t be in danger. You have to be alright, you have to be alright..."

Daylight was breaking as a Land Rover slowly pulled into the villa.

As soon as the car stopped, a figure rushed over, opened the car door, and pulled Qin Muchuan out of the car. "Bastard, where on earth did you take Wanwan?"
