His Beloved Treasure

Mu Yichen glanced at the empty dining room, and the gloom lingering in his dark eyes was eventually concealed by his long lashes.

The dinner was particularly harmonious.

Qin Mu rolled up his white sleeves and couldn’t help but laugh while serving Huanhuan soup and watching her deliberately make a drooling face.

”Is the soup Daddy made that delicious?”

Qin Mu asked!

”Yeah! Super amazing!”

Huanhuan said, giving Mu Yichen a thumbs-up as she spoke.

Mu Yichen raised an eyebrow helplessly. His daughter had already learned to praise him, and it was indeed something worth celebrating.

”I want to drink some red wine, how about you?”

”Just a little!”

Qin Mu looked up at the man across from him and said.

Mu Yichen stood up to get the red wine, and Qin Mu placed Huanhuan’s bowl in front of her: Be careful, it’s hot! Blow on it before you drink!

”Okay!”

Later, as the two of them drank wine, Huanhuan, holding her soup, joined them in a toast, and Qin Mu stroked her little head: How come you’re everywhere?

”We’re a family!”

Huanhuan, holding her bowl, said this and then went to drink her soup, the shyness in her eyes hidden away.

Qin Mu gently placed his hand on his glass, stroking the rim and chuckling softly.

Mu Yichen felt more and more that he couldn’t live without Huanhuan. This little girl was like a warm furnace in winter, a cool breeze in summer, making all his bad moods disappear because of her.

After Huanhuan had fallen asleep, Qin Mu started drawing on the first floor. When Mu Yichen came out of his study and returned to the bedroom after showering without seeing her, he went downstairs to look for her.

Under the light, she was already focused on her drawing.

Maybe because she hadn’t given it her all during the day, she was working so hard now at night?

Mu Yichen walked over to the sofa and sat down in the best line of sight to watch her.

Without looking up, Qin Mu asked him while reviewing the drawing: Are you done with your work?

”Yeah! How late do you plan to stay up tonight?”

”I’m going to add a pendant here.”

Qin Mu explained as she drew, her hand holding the pen moving agilely across the paper.

Mu Yichen just quietly watched her, thinking she planned to pull an all-nighter, but it seemed like she was close to finishing.

Wait for her!

”I heard mom went shopping at the boutique today!”

Qin Mu casually started a conversation about family matters with him.

”Yeah!”

Mu Yichen responded, recalling the shawl.

”Did you know?”

Qin Mu lifted her eyes to look at him, curious about his response.

”When I went to pick up Huanhuan, I saw her wearing the shawl from JY.”

”So she knows it’s my boutique?”

”Yeah!”

When Mu Yichen said this, he felt slightly guilty; he hadn’t known at first, but later he admitted it.

Qin Mu didn’t think much of it, as she hadn’t intended to keep it secret.

She wasn’t actively promoting it, but if others found out, then so be it.

Maybe it was better to know than not to know!

That night, after their exertions, they lay breathlessly on their respective sides of the bed, staring at the ceiling.

”Go to sleep!”

Qin Mu turned towards the window, the two cold words spoken, and then silence followed.

Mu Yichen still lay there motionless, not looking at her, just staring at the ceiling, his eyes seemingly filled with doubts.

The biggest benefit of the post-battle night was being able to sleep until morning without any dreams.

After getting up, Qin Mu thought of changing into her running clothes, but as soon as she came out of the dressing room in her sportswear, she saw Mu Yichen leaning against the bedroom door in his homewear.

Qin Mu subconsciously looked at him, his smile seemingly serene to the level of still waters.

”I’m going for a run, you take care of Huanhuan at home!”

”I’m practically your male nanny now!”

Mu Yichen said grumpily, his voice somewhat low.

Qin Mu stepped forward, hooked her arm around his neck, and looked at him with a seductive gaze: Don’t you just love this kind of life?

She lightly pecked his lips and then turned and left.

Mu Yichen watched her descend the stairs, sighing unconsciously as he lowered his head, thinking about her words.

This is the life he loves, isn’t it?

Yeah!

He was just longing for her to come back to his side. Did his status really matter?

Even if he was just a male nanny, he was her only male nanny.

He believed no other man could be like him to her, hoping she would feel it in her heart and realize that he was her only choice.

Qin Mu encountered that handsome guy again, but this time she ran with him, and her pace was quite good.

The handsome guy praised her without thinking: Not bad at all!

Qin Mu didn’t speak, and when her phone rang, she stopped to answer it, telling him to go ahead while she took the call.

”How much more is needed? Four million?”

Qin Mu’s heart suddenly fluttered; four million was not a small sum for her now.
