His Beloved Treasure

”No, since she was supposed to follow you or Qin Mu, why did you bring her instead of Qin Mu?”

Qiao Yi expressed his protest.

”Why should my daughter be brought up by someone else?”

As a result, Mu Yi coldly declared his sovereignty.

The few men were left speechless by Mu Yi’s question.

What on earth was this man thinking?

”He’s scared because he got bitten by a snake once and now he’s afraid of well ropes for ten years; if Qin Mu took Huanhuan away again, he’d have nowhere to cry.”

Jing Feng still understood him best and spelled out his thoughts in just a few sentences.

Everyone...

Qiao Yi’s mouth twitched. According to Jing Feng’s reasoning, was this man simply afraid of the woman taking the child away?

”But I thought you two were getting along well now? Hasn’t Qin Mu settled in Rongcheng?”

Jiang Zhiyuan asked curiously.

”I also think that Qin Mu is not irresponsible. Since she promised to stay, she will definitely stay.”

Zhao Huai also spoke up for Qin Mu.

However, Mu Yichen was just not feeling secure. Ever since that night, he had always been uncomfortable around Qin Mu, always feeling like there was a barrier between their hearts.

Looking at his sister with Jiang Yan, then at himself with Qin Mu...

Mu Yichen felt that Qin Mu’s feelings for him were still too shallow!

Mu Yichen was busy making food for Huanhuan, but as for their questions, he turned a deaf ear.

Because he had nothing to say—his relationship with that woman was their own business.

Qin Mu had no clue what he was thinking. That afternoon, after a visitor came to see her, she had just nested there like a fool, drawing nonstop without even drinking water, so she didn’t have to go to the toilet.

Only at around seven in the evening did she finally lift her head from the pile of drawings, because Mu Yichen had called her.

”What time will you be back?”

That cold voice sounded like he was asking someone he didn’t like.

”Right away!”

Qin Mu glanced outside, adjusted the glasses on her nosebridge, and then realized it had already gotten dark.

But when had she turned on the lights?

Why were all the lights inside on, and yet she didn’t notice the day had turned to night?

She quickly packed up the papers on the table, put everything she could into her bag, took off her glasses, put them in their case, and planned to take them home to work overtime.

She would later discover that wanting to work overtime at home was not only difficult but might also be met with disapproval.

By the time she drove her car back home and walked into the house to see the brightly lit living room empty and the dining room wafting with the scent of food...

Ha ha!

The father and son had finished their meal without waiting for her!

It was her fault for not coming home earlier.

Not daring to blame Yichen, Qin Mu quickly put down her bag to wash her hands and then went to the dining room to eat.

First, she gave Huanhuan a big kiss!

”Mommy, why did you come back so late?”

Huanhuan asked her with a hint of melancholy.

”Uh! Mommy was too engrossed in drawing, I promise to be more mindful in the future.”

As Qin Mu sat down, she assured Huanhuan.

”Okay! Then I’ll forgive you this time!”

Huanhuan nodded solemnly and said to her like a little adult.

Qin Mu felt a pain in her heart but couldn’t help but laugh.

Knowing that her position at home was somewhat precarious, she could only grin and bear it as she served herself some food, ready to eat!

Mu Yichen seemed to have not looked at her at all, at least that was how Qin Mu felt.

But Qin Mu really couldn’t figure out why. She had asked several times but never got an answer, Qin Mu felt men were so difficult to deal with.

So after dinner, she watched some cartoons with Huanhuan, and when it was about time for digestion, she took Huanhuan for a bath.

”Mommy, Daddy was very angry today.”

”Oh? And why was he angry?”

As Huanhuan bathed, she told Qin Mu. Asked by Qin Mu, her big eyes shifted, then she looked at her and said: because of you!

Qin Mu could only put on a troubled and pitiful face: ”But mommy hasn’t upset your daddy!”

”But the uncles were saying that you wanted to run away, and that’s why Daddy got angry.”

Qin Mu...

Huanhuan continued to look at her innocently and asked: ”Mommy, are you going to leave Daddy?”

”No, why would I leave your daddy? I like him so much!”

Qin Mu quickly shook her head and then applied foam to Huanhuan’s body.

”Mommy, don’t leave Daddy, Huanhuan really likes Daddy.”

After saying that, Huanhuan blushed and shyly lowered her eyes.

Qin Mu...

Heh heh!

No wonder they say a daughter is her father’s past lover.

Of course, it’s not always the case, like with her and her father.

After bathing Huanhuan, Qin Mu held her in bed, dried her body, changed her into a pretty nightgown, and then wrapped her in the blankets.
