His Beloved Treasure

”Call me Brother Zhiyuan!”

Jiang Zhiyuan suddenly said with a mischievous tone.

”Brother Zhiyuan!”

Qin Mu, looking up at the ceiling, pinched her voice and called out.

She was almost nauseous herself.

But on the other end, they burst out laughing for a while.

Jiang Zhiyuan finally stopped laughing and said, ”Don’t worry, Xiaomu. Your Brother Zhiyuan has got this covered. I’ll send someone over in a bit.”

”Okay! Thank you, Mr. Jiang, but please, just a little scare, don’t actually kill anyone. That wouldn’t be worth it!”

”Rest assured, brother knows how to measure!”

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Zhiyuan couldn’t help but laugh again. Mu Yichen looked at his smug expression and sighed helplessly, ”Brother Zhiyuan? So, do you plan to have me call you ’brother’ as well?”

”I never thought about that!”

Jiang Zhiyuan thought to himself, you’re the older one; calling me ’brother’ would be jinxing my lifespan, wouldn’t it?

”Your little sister Xiaomu has agreed to have a wedding with me. If she calls you ’brother,’ wouldn’t that be...”

”You guys are having a wedding?

”Christmas!”

President Mu played casually with the cup in his hand.

It wasn’t a loud affirmation, but it was nevertheless official.

The brothers had always thought that Mu Yichen’s wedding with Qin Mu would have to wait until they were old and grey.

Everyone knew what Qin Mu had gone through as a child. Everyone was aware of the trauma in her heart. No one expected that just over a year after her return, she would be holding a wedding with Mu Yichen. It was simply...

”First, go take care of the matter for your little sister Xiaomu. We’ll set another time to talk about the other stuff!”

Mu Yichen quickly reminded him, fearing he would forget the important task at hand.

”Right, I’ll go handle matters for my little sister first!”

Jiang Zhiyuan nodded, picked up the almost cold tea on the table, drank it in one gulp, and stood up to take care of business.

After he left, Mu Yichen listened to the door closing and sighed slightly with a sense of loss.

The look in his eyes was clearly one of abandonment, as if he wished that woman would think of him first, no matter what time it was.

Even though he knew why Qin Mu had directly sought out Jiang Zhiyuan, his heart still felt a pang of loss. Was it really good for his wife to understand him so well?

It was the first time he felt that being understood wasn’t entirely pleasant.

In the evening, after work, Qin Mu returned to the Mu Family’s house. Since Mu Qingxin was still there, they usually had dinner and sometimes stayed over at the Mu Family’s house.

It was raining outside. After dinner, they sat on the sofa and chatted. Mu Qingxin winked at Qin Mu, ”Hey, are you not leaving tonight? Are you two especially scared of making noise when you sleep in your room?”

Their conversation was very quiet, but Mu Yichen still heard it.

Mu Yichen glanced toward his wife’s sister sitting next to them, ”Mu Qingxin, if you’re bored, go see if your son is awake!”

”My son has an aunt to look after him. What’s wrong with having someone to talk to when I finally get the chance? Men, stay out of women’s conversations, alright?”

As she said this, Mu Qingxin even linked her arm with Qin Mu’s.

Such a close gesture wasn’t common between them, and Qin Mu couldn’t help but laugh.

”What are you two talking about?”

Feng Fanghua, who had been focused on the news, suddenly asked.

The three younger ones immediately fell silent.

Feng Fanghua couldn’t help but frown at their expressions, ”You really are...”

Then she continued watching the news with her husband and father-in-law. Later on, she had grown quite fond of watching the news.

While Huanhuan, lying on her grandfather’s lap, was also about to fall asleep, Mu Zihao lowered his head and then whispered, ”This little fellow is sleepy, shall we go rest?”

”Yes! I won’t watch anymore either, I’m a bit tired today.”

The old master also stood up, looking somewhat weary.

Mu Yichen and the others looked up at the old master, ”Are you alright?”

”Grandpa! My brother is good at massages, let him give you one!”

Mu Qingxin said, holding Qin Mu’s arm and speaking to the old master.

The old master perked up at that, ”Oh? You have that skill? Go ahead and give me a massage!”

Mu Yichen...

Had no choice but to go and serve the old master.

Mu Zihao, holding his granddaughter, with Feng Fanghua following behind, the three of them went to Huanhuan’s room first.

Once they were alone, Mu Qingxin asked again, ”We didn’t finish our earlier conversation, come on, spill it!”

Qin Mu had been paying attention to Huanhuan all this time and had forgotten Mu Qingxin’s question. Now reminded, she awkwardly cleared her throat, ”What’s there to talk about? I’m pregnant now!”

”Come on! After the first three months, it’s fine to do it. I’ve been pregnant; why hide it from me?”

Mu Qingxin gave her a disdainful look and urged, ”Come on, tell me! Tell me! This is the perfect opportunity to strengthen our sister-in-law relationship. If you don’t seize it, you might regret it.”
