His Beloved Treasure

”No, no! She might be having her period!”

Qiao Yi immediately shook his head in denial, explaining.

Mu Yichen looked at Qiao Yi, frowning, ”What on earth happened last night?”

”The girl was kind of straightforward, so I didn’t make it back home.”

After hearing this, Mu Yichen just looked at him for several seconds before casually nodding, ”At least that’s out in the open now!”

”Uh, well, actually...”

”There’s no need to explain to me! I think you should explain to Secretary Xi instead!”

As Mu Yichen spoke, he had already stood up, his keen gaze fixed on Qiao Yi. After he finished speaking, he left.

Qiao Yi wanted to explain more to Mu Yichen; in fact, he had wanted to talk to someone about last night’s incident, but he didn’t know who to turn to, and since he worked closely with Mu Yichen, he thought of confiding in him. Who knew that Mu Yichen wasn’t interested in listening at all.

Qiao Yi sighed helplessly, and during lunchtime in the cafeteria of the office building, he coincidentally saw Secretary Xi eating alone. He walked over out of habit to join her and casually greeted, ”Why are you eating alone today?”

Secretary Xi glanced at him, then picked up her tray and moved to another spot.

Qiao Yi...

Having no idea what had transpired, Qiao Yi went to Mu Yichen’s office, quite upset that afternoon, ”Hey, President Mu, what’s the deal with your secretary? I kindly went to eat lunch with her, and she just picked up her plate and left without acknowledging me.”

”Are you sure you didn’t provoke her?”

After Mu Yichen finished signing the documents and closed his pen, he lifted his eyes and looked at him seriously and asked again.

Qiao Yi...

”How could I dare to provoke her? Didn’t you say I’m not allowed to mess with your secretary?”

”Then I don’t have a clue!”

Mu Yichen thought, if the person involved didn’t understand what was happening, it wouldn’t be good for him to speculate.

That day, Qin Mu went with Helian Hao to pick out clothes in a store and heard a woman next door asking a salesperson, ”I heard that the clothes in your store are all unique. I want something that won’t be duplicated, yet not old-fashioned. It should be subtly revealing, give an impression of politeness while still being sexy.”

The salesperson listened to her request and picked out several items for her, which she repeatedly shook her head at, ”No good, the color should be mainly dark shades.”

After listening, Qin Mu thought about it and rummaged through a few items before pulling out a dark-colored V-neck dress with a hollow-out back design, sexy yet forward-looking from the front without losing a sense of propriety.

”I wonder if this dress meets the lady’s expectations?”

Qin Mu carried the dress over.

The woman glanced at Qin Mu, first in confusion, then at the dress.

”It looks decent, I’ll try it on!”

”All right!”

Qin Mu smiled faintly as the woman took the dress and followed the salesperson to the fitting room.

Helian Hao stepped out from the side and said, ”This woman must have some motive, right? Isn’t she trying to seduce a man?”

Qin Mu curiously looked at Helian Hao, ”Seduce who?”

Helian Hao was taken aback, then shrugged, ”How should I know?”

For some reason, Qin Mu’s heart thumped.

”But you see, with her requirements, all that subtly revealing yet dignified and sexy stuff, if it’s not for a man, who would believe it?”

Helian Hao whispered in Qin Mu’s ear, her discerning eyes fixed on the fitting room area.

”Then let’s each pick out something like that too?”

Qin Mu suddenly suggested excitedly.

”Hm?”

Helian Hao was taken aback!

”To seduce men at home, of course!”

Qin Mu replied!

Helian Hao...

”Although I’m not too keen on it, to be honest, I still have what it takes to seduce men, after all, I can handle it now. But what about you? With your current situation...”

Helian Hao didn’t finish speaking but reached out and patted her belly.

Qin Mu...

Sigh! Nowadays, I can only wear dresses that are more on the loose side.

She felt somewhat dismayed and couldn’t help sighing.

The beautiful woman had just come out of the fitting room wearing the new dress and looked at herself turning left and right in front of the mirror. Then she turned to look for Qin Mu.

Qin Mu and Helian Hao were also astonished by her figure; she truly had the perfect model’s body, with cleavage and long legs, and a gorgeous back highlighted by the dress design that made both women feel envious.

Qin Mu quietly asked Helian Hao: could she be an actress or a model or something?

”I wouldn’t know, but I’ve never seen this woman among the refined ladies of Rongcheng.”

Helian Hao’s gaze was very serious as she scrutinized the woman’s face.

”I’m Su Zhen, from D City!”

Su Zhen happily greeted them after purchasing the dress, her sharp gaze noticing that Qin Mu and Helian Hao were wearing the same brand and deduced they must be close friends.

”Hello! Qin Mu!”

Qin Mu introduced herself simply yet politely!

”Helian Hao!—We’re both genuine Rongcheng locals!”

Helian Hao thought for a moment and added a few more words.

”That’s wonderful, I’ve just arrived in this precious place and still don’t know much about it. Can we be friends?”
