His Beloved Treasure

Helian Hao asked her.

Qin Mu straightened her back, her face full of collagen beamed at her friend of the same youthful age across from her, and she couldn’t help but laugh as she said, ”Yichen told me the other day that he stopped a lot of guys from pursuing me, I used to think I just didn’t fit in.”

”So, it’s not that you didn’t fit in, it’s that he had you all to himself!”

”Yeah! But I don’t regret it, nor do I feel it’s a pity, I think it’s quite nice!”

Qin Mu couldn’t help but laugh! The codfish tofu soup turned out to be very good, so she served a bowl for Helian Hao, then helped herself to a bowl, ”Have some soup! You really need to replenish your nutrition right now.”

”My mother-in-law has been coming to our apartment a lot lately to make me fish soup! All kinds of fish soup! And they’re all the same color, pure white!”

Helian Hao didn’t expect Qin Mu to order fish soup too, but she picked it up and drank it, knowing it was good for the little one in her belly.

”Eh! It feels different from the one made at home, it’s tasty!”

Helian Hao took a sip and was pleasantly surprised by the taste, and then she drank a bit more.

”Because the restaurant doesn’t care if you’re pregnant or not, they just make it taste good, but at home they deliberately don’t add salt because they know you’re pregnant.”

Both women could relate to this, ever since they got pregnant it was as if their homes had run out of salt.

”How about we go shopping after we finish eating? Have you been taking on any work lately?”

”I haven’t been taking much work this year! Let’s go shopping!”

Qin Mu finished her bowl of fish soup before moving on to the dishes, she felt that the taste of the dishes couldn’t compare with what Yichen made at home, so after taking a bite, she stopped eating and continued with the soup.

Qin Mu realized that she suddenly liked drinking soup again.

After finishing their meal, the two went to the mall together. At the watch counter, Helian Hao dragged her over, ”It’s been a long while since I got a new one!”

”Do you need to change it often?”

Qin Mu looked at the dazzling array of watches in the showcase, all quite expensive, and to be honest, they all looked rather similar.

The one she was wearing had been on her wrist for several years, a gift from Yichen on her birthday.

Was it her eighteenth birthday?

She didn’t understand it before, but now that she thought about it, she felt like she understood the significance of the watch he gave her back then.

But whether she understood it or not, she had not changed it over the years.

And Yichen didn’t seem to want her to change it either, he was the type to wear the same watch for many years.

”How about we buy a pair of couple’s watches?”

Qin Mu looked at the couple’s watches and thought they were not too bad.

Helian Hao was looking at single watches, but upon hearing her suggestion, looked up at her, ”Us two?”

”You and Jing Feng!”

Qin Mu reminded her, looking at her with an exasperated expression.

”Uh! Cough cough!”

Helian Hao coughed awkwardly, her cheeks flushing red, but she went to look at the couple’s watches anyway.

Qin Mu always had the feeling that Miss Helian came to look at couple’s watches, just too shy to mention it.

What couldn’t sisters talk about? Qin Mu almost kicked her in the butt, if it wasn’t for the inconvenience of being pregnant.

Actually, she didn’t dare to kick her, even if not pregnant, Qin Mu was afraid if she did and Jing Feng found out, he would cause trouble for her.

Knowing Jing Feng’s temperament, if anyone touched Helian Hao, no matter who they were or how they touched her, he would be troubled for a lifetime.

In the end, Helian Hao happily purchased a pair of couple’s watches and left satisfied. Qin Mu initially thought she wanted to shop more, but it turned out she came just for the watches.

After parting with Helian Hao, Qin Mu was about to drive back to the studio when she received a call from Qin Haiming, so she turned the car toward the Qin family’s place and stopped to buy some fresh flowers and nourishing gifts on the way.

Uncle Wang got discharged today, but he was still lying in bed. He sat up and leaned against the headboard when he saw her come in.

Seeing the carnations and baby’s breath Qin Mu brought made him a bit excited, ”Miss, you’re too kind; you really didn’t need to bring me flowers.”

”You’ve been sick! Seeing some fresh flowers and greenery can help with recovery.”

Qin Mu stood by the bed, with Haiming by her side.

Haiming felt quite sour inside.

What gifts had Qin Mu given him over the years? Since she went to Paris, their father-daughter relationship revolved around money. Remembering later how Qin Mu used her earnings from advertisements to repay him for the money he spent raising her, he unconsciously lowered his head.

Uncle Wang, seeing this, couldn’t help but laugh again, ”The mayor has been taking good care of me these days, Miss doesn’t have to worry, I’m doing very well!”

”Hmm!”

Qin Mu smiled, but when she turned her head and saw the look of loss on Haiming’s face, she reflexively thought a bit more about it, but then pretended as if she understood nothing and just smiled.
