His Beloved Treasure

Qin Mu also realized something was off at this moment. How much of the unsightly dealings between the brothers had she inadvertently come to know?

And all these dealings were related to her?

Qin Mu fell silent as well, her sharp eyes slightly downturned. She was thinking, how could she have possibly fallen for this man?

As Qin Mu pondered this question, she looked up at Mu Yichen.

Mu Yichen frowned and glanced at her: ”There’s a bit of a misunderstanding here, I’ll explain it to you alone later.”

”Ha! Then I’ll clear the space for you.”

Qiao Yi, seeing that the guy who tricked him was about to be dealt with, quickly got up to make space.

Mu Yichen...

Now Qiao Yi quickly made his exit.

”You’re just a liar! A complete and utter cheat!”

Qin Mu stood up, having realized everything, cursed him, and turned to leave.

Mu Yichen immediately left from behind the desk, stretched his hand to block the door before she could open it, then grabbed her hand: ”Didn’t I explain the fake car accident last time?”

”You said it was Qiao Yi and the others messing around, you didn’t admit that you were also involved.”

Qin Mu was furious, almost sick to her stomach.

How could he do this?

She trusted him so much, yet he repeatedly set traps for her, treating her like a fool to be toyed with.

Qin Mu felt her eyes getting moist, yet stubbornly refused to let the tears fall, just stubbornly stared back at him, unwilling to breathe more heavily than him, that resentful, stubborn gaze continually fixed on him.

”Calm down a bit, we’re here to discuss family rules today.”

Mu Yichen, seeing her about to turn hostile, quickly reminded her.

”Family rules? Who sets the rules for whom? Who enforces, and who is enforced upon?”

He hadn’t mentioned it and Qin Mu had forgotten; she twisted her elbow outwards, breaking free from his hold, took a step back, and looked up in anger, sarcastically belittling him.

Mu Yichen had been confident until Qiao Yi messed all up with a few words.

”It’s been so long already! Hmm?”

Mu Yichen tried to soothe her.

Qin Mu was extremely angry, really wanting to turn on him immediately, but remembering that every time they cold-shouldered each other, it was torture for both, so she just took her bag off her shoulder and started hitting him repeatedly with it.

”What am I in the end?”

Tears trickling to her lips, she finally couldn’t help asking him, all pride inside her dissolving completely because of this man before her.

”What did you say? You’re my heart and soul!”

Mu Yichen grabbed her slender wrists, pulled her close, looking at her turned into a tearful mess and heartbroken, cupped her face with both hands and wiped her tears: ”I was wrong, how about I never do that again? At that time, I just wanted to stay with you in the hotel for one night, although it was deceitful, there was no malice.”

He whispered to her, seeing the stubborn look in her eyes, heartbreakingly sighed: ”Stop crying! If you’re still angry, hit me.”

”Do you think I dare not?”

Qin Mu angrily asked him, and really hit him on the shoulder.

Mu Yichen just smiled faintly: ”If hitting doesn’t relieve your anger, how about we go to the rest room? I’ll lie on the bed and let you take advantage!”

Qin Mu...

”Mu Yichen, you really are... is this how you find joy, is that it?”

Qin Mu got furious again, grabbing the bag and throwing it at him once more.

This time, Mu Yichen caught the bag: ”The bag is so heavy, you’ve wanted to hit me for a long time, haven’t you?”

While teasing her, Mu Yichen moved around to her front, hugged her tightly from behind.

Qin Mu found it hard to breathe being trapped by him: ”Mu Yichen, you just know how to bully me!”

She slightly turned her body, but couldn’t see his face no matter how.

Mu Yichen directly lifted her legs too, carrying her to the sofa to sit down, hugged her gently and coaxed her: ”I was wrong; do you want to bully me back, hmm?”

Mu Yichen held her soft hand, gently slapping his own face with it.

Qin Mu looked at him pitifully, then when he thought she wouldn’t stretch her hand, she flicked her palm open.

So after he used her hand to slap himself a few times without feeling it, that one slap, snapped crisply.

Of course, it wasn’t heavy, but compared to not being able to hit at all, it was heavier, at least it made a sound.

Mu Yichen’s deep eyes seriously looked at her, Qin Mu was a bit scared, but didn’t want to admit it was intentional.

Luckily, Mu Yichen immediately asked her softly: ”Feeling a bit better now? Want to hit a few more times?”

”Do you think I dare not!”

Qin Mu said, suddenly grabbing his neck, then pressing him down.
