His Beloved Treasure

Helian Hao’s gaze quickly shifted towards Mu Yichen, who only gave her a faint glance.

”Ha! Is it because I’m disturbing your little world at home that you deliberately stayed out so late?”

Mu Qingxin felt deeply hurt after hearing this.

”With so many rooms in our house, isn’t there enough space for the two of you to use? Besides, Qin Mu is still pregnant.”

Mu Qingxin’s voice became more aggrieved as she spoke, and it grew softer when she noticed her brother was ignoring her.

”I just wanted to go out for a stroll, that’s all!”

Qin Mu immediately stated her position, her voice uncomfortable, and she couldn’t help coughing twice.

”Anyway, I’m not leaving!”

Mu Qingxin stubbornly muttered, then turned around and walked out first.

Mu Yichen watched his silly sister’s retreating back and helplessly raised his hand to rub his temples.

”If you have things to do, just go. I took the day off since I’m free, so I can keep her company here,” Helian Hao said as she looked up at him.

”I have an important meeting this morning—, I will definitely rush back before noon.”

Mu Yichen looked at Qin Mu and paused; truth be told, he didn’t want to attend the meeting anymore, as nothing was more important than her.

”Go ahead! Don’t hold up the three of us from enjoying our affection,” Qin Mu managed to say with a sharp tone despite her weak voice.

Mu Yichen laughed helplessly, ”You’re sick, and yet your mouth is still so stubborn?”

But his voice was so tender when he spoke to her.

Qin Mu couldn’t help but smile, her lips dry.

”Then I’m off now!”

Mu Yichen had already changed clothes but left without having breakfast.

As he walked downstairs and headed out, the housekeeper followed behind him, ”Young Master, don’t you want to eat something before you go?”

”No need!”

Mu Yichen answered and walked away.

Qin Mu had just taken her medicine and gone back to sleep, with Helian Hao sitting by her bed and Mu Qingxin sitting on the sofa, both of them began to chat.

”Speaking of which, Helian Hao, you and Jing Feng really never give anyone a surprise. Why just stay together like that? You could at least try dating someone else! Both of you have been together since young and will stay together even when old, how boring.”

”So, did you not fancy Yang Bo because you found him boring, and that’s why you married a Mr. Jiang?”

Helian Hao asked curiously.

”Uh!”

Both kept their voices down, not wanting to disturb the person sleeping due to sickness.

Yet at that moment, the atmosphere was somewhat...

”It’s not that I didn’t fancy Yang Bo, it’s just that he looks too much like my elder brother.”

Mu Qingxin explained; she had always treated Yang Bo as an elder brother.

”If Yang Bo and Mu Yi hear what you said, I’m afraid both would be upset.”

”Then I don’t care!”

Mu Qingxin responded with a mischievous smile.

Helian Hao sighed helplessly, thinking that this girl truly hadn’t changed over the ten years, always indifferent to others’ feelings.

But what does it matter?

Life is short!

Helian Hao thought Mu Qingxin lived her life carefreely.

Ever since she was young, it seemed she had been living life in her own way, and of course, her elder brother was the same, traveling to a foreign country at a young age with a little girl.

The two of them chatted for over an hour without realizing it. Although they weren’t very close normally, now they seemed to have a lot to talk about.

From reminiscing the past to the future, it wasn’t like before when they would glance at each other as if they were strangers.

Later, Helian Hao, too, felt tired and leaned against Qin Mu’s side.

”Hey, hey, hey! If Mu Yichen knows you’re leaning on his spot, he’ll chop you up,” Mu Qingxin quickly warned from the sofa.

”He’s not here!”

Helian Hao lay down steadily, fearing Mu Yichen?

”But his sister is here!”

After thinking for a while, Mu Qingxin realized how stupid she was being; she didn’t want to remain stupid forever.

”Then go ahead and tell him! I’m leaving soon anyway!”

Helian Hao said this and then touched Qin Mu’s forehead again; she seemed much better after taking the medicine.

”We listened to an old song last night! One you used to love singing—do you know what it is?”

”A song I used to love singing? The ones I liked before, I still like now. It wouldn’t be a song by Naicha, right?”

Mu Qingxin thought for a moment, her eyes looking exceptionally sharp as she spoke, her long lashes fluttering while she held a cushion and asked Helian Hao.

”Exactly! I reckon the two of them were feeling nostalgic, so they went for a walk. Those two hardly ever go shopping; such boring people.”

Helian Hao couldn’t help but complain.

”Yeah! One is obsessed with money, and the other is foolish.”

Helian Hao muttered while looking at the woman on the bed.

”I’m already awake! Who are you calling foolish?”

Qin Mu mumbled, slowly opening her eyes.

Helian Hao...

Mu Qingxin stood up with her face blushing red, stretching her neck to look at the bed: ”Hey, Helian Hao, you knew she was awake all along, didn’t you?”
