His Beloved Treasure

”Chengcheng hasn’t brushed his teeth yet,” Feng Fanghua immediately reminded.

”Then let me take him to brush his teeth first!”

Mu Zihao looked down at his grandson. The little guy barely had a few teeth, but upon hearing grandma talk about brushing teeth, he grinned cheekily at grandpa.

Only then did Feng Fanghua feel at ease to find Huanhuan. Actually, they didn’t need to get up so early to tend to the two little ones, but they felt especially close to these two little guys, and didn’t want anyone else involved.

Huanhuan as well — Feng Fanghua even personally braided her hair. When Qin Mu woke up, she went to Huanhuan’s room. Feng Fanghua had already done half of the braiding, and it looked especially beautiful.

”Morning, Mom! Morning, Huanhuan! Shall I continue?”

Qin Mu said, reaching out her hand.

Feng Fanghua didn’t lift her eyes, having already seen Qin Mu’s sleepy face with the corner of her eye: ”If you haven’t had enough sleep, go back and sleep a little longer. With so many people at home, you don’t need to get up so early. And by the way, how can your skills compare to mine?”

Feng Fanghua glanced at her own braiding and was very satisfied.

Qin Mu had no choice but to sit on the side, smiling calmly and staying silent.

Indeed, there’s no comparison!

”I heard you played basketball at AM last night? With a foreigner too?”

”Uh! It was Rui Sen!”

Qin Mu thought it over. After a sleep, her mind was blank, but once she remembered, she didn’t conceal the truth.

”That kid Yichen didn’t get mad?”

”How could he not? But he exerted his temper in winning that game. By the time we were eating, he was already quite alright.”

Qin Mu could only describe it as quite alright, since the later conversations they had were quite baffling.

”I was really worried!”

Feng Fanghua let out a light hum. Last night, she happened to have a friend working out over there, who then called to inform her that her son was playing basketball fiercely with a foreigner. She had suspected it was Rui Sen and fretted to Mu Zihao for a long time, fearful of any potential incident.

Luckily, her son didn’t disappoint her. Seeing Mu Yichen still showed some quality gave her peace of mind.

”Is that man going to stay here for a long time?”

”He actually went back to Paris for Christmas, but returned!”

Qin Mu answered Feng Fanghua, feeling confused herself. Somehow, Rui Sen wasn’t the type to cheat with someone, yet why did he come back?

What unspeakable secrets exist between him and Bian Jingwen? Why does Bian Jingwen always stay with him, and it’s not just limited to the office, but includes dining together, exercising together, or perhaps doing many other things together?

Are they friends?

But judging by Rui Sen’s expression, they don’t seem to be!

Since Bian Jingwen came to Rongcheng, how many people and incidents has she brought forth?

The more Qin Mu thought about it, the more bothered she became, yet she could do nothing.

”Is dad not awake yet?”

Huanhuan, seated there listening to her mom and grandma talk for a while, suddenly thought of her pitiful dad.

In that muffled sound was her yearning for her dad.

”Hmm! Our little darling is actually starting to miss daddy?”

Feng Fanghua asked her, pleasantly surprised.

”Your dad is up, he’s on a call discussing work now!”

Qin Mu answered softly to her daughter and then shook her head helplessly, thinking that being a big boss is really no easy task, being alert every minute during busy times.

”Since you returned to the country, he has improved a lot. In past years when you were in Paris and he was here working hard, maybe because of you and also because of your dad and I supporting him unconditionally, he would work tirelessly all day and night. Now looking back, it seems that being so busy back then was good in a way; now he has time to sit on the couch with the whole family watching TV, going out for fun. Of course, we are not the biggest beneficiaries, it is you.”

Sometimes, Feng Fanghua really felt overwhelmingly envious of her daughter-in-law.

Every time Qin Mu heard about how frantically Mu Yichen worked during those years, she felt some heartache, even to this day.

”I used to think, is that kid crazy? Why did he suddenly work so diligently? Hmph! It turns out he was trying to trick you back to Rongcheng to get married and have babies! Well, I can’t speak for other things, but having kids is certainly something he did well.”

Feng Fanghua suddenly felt proud, these beloved granddaughter and grandson were truly dear to her.

In these years at the Mu Family house, it was just Feng Fanghua and Mu Zihao, two lonely elderly people. The old man only returned for the New Year from the countryside, Mu Yichen lived independently outside — it was the appearance of these two little ones that made their home whole again.
