His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 1231: Chapter 344: Can’t Let Go of Your Hand (Part 3)

”Tired? He slept a bit late last night. He went somewhere with Jing Feng, and it seems he drank a lot when he got back.”

Qin Mu just listened, feeling a bit puzzled.

Mu Yichen drinking with Jing Feng, and getting drunk?

Both of them are usually very restrained people; it shouldn’t be.

But if she were to ask him now, he probably wouldn’t answer, so Qin Mu decided to wait and ask him later.

At 7:30 in the evening, Qin Haiming arrived at the Mu Family house.

Qin Mu was waiting for him at the door, noticing Uncle Wang carrying several children’s gifts and supplements behind him. She couldn’t help but sigh, ”Every time you come, you bring gifts for them. We really can’t fit them at home.”

”What else can I bring? I brought some supplements for your grandfather, nothing too expensive. As a father visiting his daughter’s family-in-law, I have to do something.”

Qin Haiming said to her at the doorway.

Qin Mu thought it made sense and didn’t say anything more.

”Miss, you’re back! How have you been?”

”I’m good! Uncle Wang, it’s been a while! How has your health been?”

”Good, I’m doing well!”

Uncle Wang delivered the gifts and then drove back. Qin Haiming and Qin Mu went inside the house together, where Mu Zihao and Feng Fanghua warmly greeted him, and he responded in kind.

”Please, have a seat inside!”

Mu Yichen, sitting at the outermost seat, said to him.

”Mm! No need for formalities, let’s all sit!”

Qin Haiming said, looking at his son-in-law and daughter.

”Grandpa! I missed you so much!”

As soon as Huanhuan saw him, she ran over from a distance, leaving her brother behind, and started acting cute while clinging to his leg.

Chengcheng wasn’t about to be outdone and ran over immediately, but unlike Huanhuan, Chengcheng wasn’t as expressive, leading to some awkwardness in front of Qin Haiming.

Qin Haiming looked down at Chengcheng, who stood there with a slightly awkward expression, and gently patted his little head, ”Our Chengcheng is taller now and even more handsome!”

Chengcheng blushed upon hearing the compliment and turned around to run away.

”Haha! My brother is shy!”

Huanhuan, still clinging to Qin Haiming’s leg, said, covering her small mouth, that her brother was shy.

Feng Fanghua watched her granddaughter with loving eyes, noticing how this little one wasn’t shy with anyone. She would show a cold face to those she disliked but was super fond of those she liked. Her candid temperament reminded Feng Fanghua of her younger self, making her even more satisfied with Huanhuan.

Qin Mu and Mu Yichen sat on the side, just watching. With elders around, they didn’t have the chance to educate the younger ones, mainly listening, watching, and helping with things like pouring tea.

”Now that you’re back, you can’t be reckless again! Although I haven’t been the best father, you’re also a mother now, and you shouldn’t be willful anymore, especially with such a good husband like Yichen, right?”

Qin Haiming, as the father from the bride’s side, naturally had to say something when his daughter returned from being away from her in-laws for seven months.

Qin Mu just listened, feeling a bit awkward, merely giving a dry laugh.

He’s saying Yichen is such a good husband? Mu’s little tail must be wagging again.

Mu Yichen glanced at her, his gaze inevitably filled with his unique pride.

”Yichen isn’t completely blameless! He’s also quite prideful. Honestly, with them fighting for so long, we, as in-laws, owe you an apology. Didn’t Grandpa ask us to invite you over for dinner as soon as he got back for this very reason? Mumu treats her elders faultlessly, unlike my precious son, who does things only as he pleases, causing you much concern, hasn’t he?”

Feng Fanghua added a few more words.

”Worrying is inevitable; having two precious daughters hasn’t been worry-free at all!”

Qin Haiming gave a bitter smile, and eventually hung his head.

”Kids will always worry their parents. Our two are the same way. Brother was naughty since childhood, and sister brought a boy home as soon as she went out. It’s the same everywhere.”

Mu Zihao quickly steered the topic to something lighter.

But hearing Mu Zihao’s words, Qin Haiming felt a bit better.

”The young couple breaking up—would you take that seriously? Would they really want to break up just like that? Could they bear it?”

The elder, sitting at the head, looked at the couple sitting at the edge. Mu Yichen was still playing with Qin Mu’s fingers; they didn’t act distant at all.

As everyone looked towards them, Qin Mu nervously withdrew her hand, pretending to act unaffected, with only an awkward smile. Mu Yichen, suddenly missing his wife’s hand, raised his eyes with curiosity. Realizing everyone was talking about them, he merely gave a slight smile, his expression a bit unnatural, then looked somewhat regretfully at his wife. He was playing just fine; why did she withdraw her hand?
