His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 1487: Chapter 418: She Is Priceless

Zhao Huai’s tone softened a lot, and he stared at her without blinking, afraid of missing her moments of disappointment.

”Why is it inconvenient? We’ve been together for many years, and they’ve been waiting for me to come back!”

Xiaomei said, glancing up at him, then lowering her head again.

”How is it convenient? You are not allowed to go again! Even if they’re waiting for you, I can’t bear to part with you!”

With so many men there, was he really going to let Xiaomei go back?

It’s not that he wasn’t open-minded, it’s just that now she’s his little wife, how could he let her live in an apartment with those men?

”Are you bullying me?”

Xiaomei’s eyes were filled with tears, and soon she was crying in his arms.

Zhao Huai regretted it so much he wished he could slap himself, holding her and coaxing her for a while.

The next day, Xiaomei got up early and left without saying goodbye to him, nor did she prepare breakfast. She bought a pancake and soy milk outside for herself, went to the studio, and began to eat.

Qin Mu rarely came so early and wanted to take a few drawings home, but she saw Xiaomei sitting at her seat, taking big bites of her pancake as if she didn’t chew it before swallowing.

”What’s wrong? Did someone make Chen Xiaomei angry?”

Qin Mu walked over slowly, her voice much softer than usual.

Hearing footsteps, Xiaomei kept her head down pretending to be strong, but when she heard Qin Mu’s voice, tears as big as beans started rolling down.

Qin Mu was so startled that her heart ached, she pulled a chair to sit across from her and asked, ”Did Zhao Huai propose to you?”

Qin Mu asked excitedly, but after glancing at Xiaomei’s hand, she immediately felt something was wrong. Could it be that the two of them had a fight?

The two were so in love that they seemed to be living in a honey jar every day, how could they suddenly have a fight?

”He wants me to propose to him! Did you rat me out to him?”

Xiaomei cried as she lifted her head, unable to see Qin Mu clearly, stubbornly questioning her.

”I assure you, absolutely not!”

Qin Mu raised her hand solemnly to promise, but what on earth was that guy up to?

Wasn’t he supposed to propose to Xiaomei? How could he ask Xiaomei to propose to him?

”Then why did he suddenly want me to propose to him? First, he said he wanted to have a child with me, said marriage was possible, but insisted I propose to him, boohoo! I don’t want to propose to him!”

The more Xiaomei spoke, the more aggrieved she felt, and her tears kept falling incessantly.

Qin Mu...

After picking up the documents, Qin Mu left the studio and called Zhao Huai on the way home: ”Xiaomei has cried in front of me only three times over these years, and now you’re talking about marrying her while making her cry so sadly, what do you mean?”

Zhao Huai had just arrived at the office building, answering Qin Mu’s call as if receiving an imperial decree, and after entering the elevator, he switched hands to hold the phone: ”Xiaomei cried? When?”

”Just now, what on earth are you thinking?”

Qin Mu sensed his urgency, but still asked again.

”I swear, I was just saying it offhandedly. I thought if she proposed to me, it would be a pleasant surprise. If she didn’t want to, then I’d propose to her. I didn’t expect her to have such a strong reaction, and she left early this morning. I called her several times but she didn’t answer. Qin Mu, you ask me what I’m thinking, but honestly, I really want to ask her what she’s thinking now.”

Zhao Huai pinched his brows in frustration, feeling a bit overwhelmed. It wasn’t Xiaomei’s first time being temperamental with him, but it was definitely the first time she was so unreasonable, changing her mood at the drop of a hat as if she became a different person.

But last night, they were still cuddling each other to sleep.

”What does she think? Of course, she’s full of fantasies, thinking the person she likes will propose to her!”

Qin Mu vented angrily while driving.

”I didn’t say I wouldn’t propose!”

Zhao Huai was speaking when the elevator doors suddenly opened!

Just then, Qiao Yi was about to enter, and when he looked up, he saw Zhao Huai pressing his head against the elevator wall.

Zhao Huai turned around abruptly and froze when he saw Qiao Yi.

”I don’t know when you plan to propose to her, and it’s not something others can rush. But you’d better make it up to her soon!”

After Qin Mu finished speaking, she hung up the phone. Zhao Huai didn’t speak again, just stared blankly at Qiao Yi.

Qiao Yi, seeing him on the phone, didn’t speak until he finished, then couldn’t help but chuckle: ”Bro, you okay?”
