His Beloved Treasure

By the time the late night arrived, indeed, his premonition regrettably came true.

Huanhuan really did fall asleep on their bed, and she didn’t let go of Qin Mu even in her sleep.

In fact, they both knew it was because Qin Mu’s belly had started to show, and Huanhuan felt a sense of crisis.

Feeling both sorry for his daughter and helpless at the same time, especially Mu Yichen, he really wanted to carry his little darling back to that princess room, but he also felt a bit reluctant.

”Once her little brother is born, as long as he sleeps by himself, she won’t compete with me for you anymore, right?”

When Mu Yichen got into bed, he casually asked, separated from his beloved wife by their crystallization of love.

”Should be!” Qin Mu responded in a low voice, her eyes sparkling with light as she looked at Mu Yichen.

”Sigh!”

Mu Yichen looked at Qin Mu with a look of wistful grievance.

”Are you really a father? Didn’t you used to carry her everywhere? Why are you suddenly so repelled?”

”If she doesn’t compete with me for my wife, I’m still a good dad,” Mu Yichen replied, then turned and lay flat, placing both hands behind his head, and after that, calmly looked at the ceiling.

Qin Mu also turned and lay in the same cool posture, gazing at the ceiling.

In the blink of an eye, they went from being a couple to a family of four.

”Do you remember when you were in third grade?”

Mu Yichen suddenly started reminiscing about the past again.

”Yeah! What about it?”

She remembered most of the things from that time.

”Once, when I went to pick you up from school, I saw a kid slipping a love letter into your bag, so I threw it away when you weren’t looking.”

As he talked about these things, it was as if he had returned to those days.

After hearing this, Qin Mu turned her head to look at him, her gaze seeming eternal.

”And afterwards?”

Qin Mu asked, curious, as she was the recipient of the love letter yet knew nothing about it.

”Many times after that, I secretly threw away the love letters they wrote to you. Oh, and there were a few kids who called you. I set their mobile numbers to call forwarding and got rid of them all for you.”

Mu Yichen spoke, his eyebrows raising slightly as he did so.

Unable to hold back any longer, Qin Mu turned to face him, even though they were separated by their daughter, even though the lights were dim.

”So tell me! How many love letters from others did you receive for me? How many phone calls from them did you block?”

It’s no wonder during those years there were always boys asking her strange questions, and some people suspected she was a delinquent, a young girl living with an older boy.

Now, she had finally found the root of all evil.

”I can’t remember! Anyways, all that I knew about, I blocked for you! I knew you were particularly bad at resisting these things,” Mu Yichen said, turning to look at her with a serious expression.

Qin Mu...

”Why should I resist these things? Girls like being pursued!” Qin Mu responded.

”Really?”

Mu Yichen also turned over, propped one arm under his head, frowned, and looked at her seriously, his gaze passing over their daughter.

”Don’t you know? I always thought that everyone disliked me and ostracized me, but all this time it was you pulling strings from behind. Mu Yichen, are you really sure you’re not the bad boy who ruined my childhood?” Qin Mu asked.

”I don’t think so! Filling your entire childhood by myself, that’s more than enough!” Mu Yichen said, turning away again to look at the ceiling.

She was his, why should he let those annoying boys confess to her?

Want to hold her hand?

Want to play kissing games with her?

Did they think he followed her all the way to Paris just for sightseeing?

He was there to protect his little wife, after all.

”Selfish!” Qin Mu, propped up on the bed with both arms, lifted her upper body slightly and scolded him, even though deep down she felt a profound sense of pride.

He knew to fend off rivals from such a young age!

It’s no wonder only he could capture her admiration, Qin Mu.

Qin Mu felt that one should, of course, get what one likes.

Qin Mu felt that everything Mu Yichen did was right!

Qin Mu felt they should have confessed their affections for each other long ago!

It’s just that at the time, she was so fearful!

Only after the shadow in her heart was completely gone this year did she dare to face his feelings, dared to acknowledge her own.

”Am I selfish? You dare to promise you never told any other girl you were living with me?” Mu Yichen asked her, suspecting that at least she had broken that news more than ten times!

Especially since she was the kind of person whose every word seemed so genuine.

When the two of them were in Paris, they often lived together, especially after Qin Mu was abandoned by her guardians there, Mu Yichen almost became her guardian.

Upon hearing his question, Qin Mu couldn’t help but move her mouth. After a long while, she finally mumbled, ”There was a girl from your school who came to your apartment to find you, but I definitely didn’t say I was your girlfriend.”

”Then what did you say?”

Mu Yichen remembered that afterwards, that girl had cornered him at school and cried in front of him for at least half an hour.

”I just said you were helping me wash my panties,” Qin Mu said.

Interestingly, the day that girl went to find Mu Yichen, Qin Mu had just taken a bath at his place, ha! The girl was just in time; otherwise, just washing panties probably wouldn’t have been enough to make her leave so heartbroken.

”Hmm! So Mrs. Mu also had her plans early on!” Mu Yichen looked straight at her again.
