His Beloved Treasure

”Young Madam, I’m here!”

Qin Mu was about to help him out of bed, but Secretary Xi suddenly rushed over and stood in front of her.

”Young Madam, let me do it!”

Qin Mu was just helping him with those slippers, and Secretary Xi suddenly rushed out again.

In any case, every time Qin Mu moved to do something for Jian Yan, Secretary Xi would suddenly dash over, even if she had just been in a video conference, or on the phone handling other matters; she would put it all aside. At this point, Qin Mu even began to doubt Secretary Xi’s real purpose for being there.

Was she really here to help her, or to ... help her?

Qin Mu stood to the side watching Secretary Xi helping Jian Yan arrange the pillow behind his back, with Jian Yan also looking at her.

A stranger taking care of him so attentively made him feel somewhat at a loss.

”Mr. Jian, if you need anything at all, please come to me. Our Young Madam has been exhausted recently, so try not to trouble her.”

Jian Yan didn’t speak, just lifted his eyes to look at Qin Mu.

”Come out with me!”

With a faint voice, Qin Mu turned and walked out of the hospital room first.

Secretary Xi smiled at him, then whispered lowly: Please take care of Huanhuan for me.

Jian Yan...

Huanhuan sat obediently still on the sofa, eyes following her mom and Aunt Secretary as they went out one after the other; then she slowly turned to the person on the hospital bed and immediately hopped off the sofa with a cheerful laugh to keep him company.

Jian Yan smiled helplessly.

Far outside the hospital room, Qin Mu suddenly turned around, looked at the recently very attentive Secretary Xi, unconsciously sighed, then helplessly voiced her inner thoughts: Did Mu Yichen send you to monitor me?

”Monitor? Young Madam, you’re overthinking it. The boss just told me to take good care of you!”

Seeing Qin Mu’s expression turn cold, Secretary Xi knew that Qin Mu was guessing and chose her words more carefully.

”Take care of me? It seems to me you’re clearly here to take care of Jian Yan.”

”Er, I’m just helping you take care of him.”

Secretary Xi, seeing that Qin Mu was really upset, instinctively said in a bit of fear.

”Helping me take care of him? Did I ask you to help me take care of him? You’re an unmarried girl, and even though you’re a few years older than I am, why are you taking care of a strange man? Unless it was your boss’s orders, I wouldn’t believe for a second that you’d do such a thing.”

Qin Mu was really angry because Jian Yan and Secretary Xi both were uncomfortable with her caring for Jian Yan. If both were uncomfortable, why would they accommodate each other?

She hated that kind of insincerity most, and she had to pierce through this pretense today.

Secretary Xi fell silent all of a sudden.

”You can go back, tell Mu Yichen I don’t need his false kindness. Saying he came to take care of me—it’s surveillance, plain and simple. What Jing Qing can do, he can do as well.”

After saying this, Qin Mu turned to go back into the hospital room.

”Young Madam, actually, the boss just cares about you too much! Please don’t compare him with Miss Jing, he would probably be very hurt.”

How competent of a secretary was Secretary Xi?

Qin Mu stopped, turned to look at her, and Secretary Xi stepped forward, still respectful, ”I’ve been with the boss for several years, I should know quite clear what kind of a person he is. If he didn’t care about you, he wouldn’t have asked me to do all this.”

”Would you like it if your boyfriend followed you everywhere you went, whatever you did, and prevented you from doing things?”

Secretary Xi looked at her and didn’t speak again; silence was her agreement.

”You can go. You don’t have to relay those words to him; the problems between him and me should be resolved by us alone.”

Qin Mu was no longer as impulsive as before, she nodded apologetically at the secretary and then left.

Secretary Xi...

Actually, Secretary Xi also wanted to leave. She was almost unable to stay here. Even though Jian Yan was nice-looking and had a good temper, she still didn’t like taking care of strangers.

So, at that moment, Secretary Xi also decided to return home.

After Qin Mu returned to the hospital room and closed the door, Huanhuan was interacting with Jian Yan about some snacks; Qin Mu immediately went over, afraid that Huanhuan might give him something inappropriate.

Indeed, it was very cold fruit, Qin Mu squatted down and hugged her daughter: ”This is good for mommy to eat, you shouldn’t give it to uncle, okay?”

Huanhuan smiled, and just as she was about to put it to Qin Mu’s mouth, she suddenly put it in her own. Qin Mu...

”Hahaha!”

Huanhuan suddenly laughed. Qin Mu helplessly rubbed her head.

”Where’s Secretary Xi?”

Jian Yan looked at the mother and daughter as he asked.

”Her? There seems to be something at the company, Mu Yichen called her back to Rongcheng.”

After finishing her words, Qin Mu smiled, stood up holding Huanhuan, and sat down on an adjacent chair, finally reclaiming her seat.
