His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 1686: Chapter 470: The Beginning and the End (16)

Feng Fanghua couldn’t help but sigh, looking at Jing Qing, then at her quiet daughter-in-law.

The things that happened between Jing Qing, Mu Yichen, and Qin Mu in those years, those unpleasant pasts, seemed like a dream.

”Your in-laws are not bad, letting you come back to spend New Year with your grandfather is enough to show it!”

Feng Fanghua glanced at Zhen Jie, then said to Jing Qing.

”Yeah! They’ve been very good to me!”

Jing Qing said as she turned to look at Zhen Jie, who smiled at her.

”Xiaoqing always thinks about the family, so the family naturally thinks about her.”

Zhen Jie spoke very modestly, yet his hand unconsciously grasped Jing Qing’s hand.

Qin Mu instinctively raised her eyes and saw them holding hands.

Nowadays, it seems like others’ relationships are complete, yet she and Mu Yichen have begun to stir things up again.

It’s really like when someone interferes, the relationship feels like it can withstand trials, but now that no one is causing trouble, instead, the two have made their feelings fade.

”You two ran off for a date, and what about Yichen and my uncle...”

Jing Qing asked.

”They are at home doing it themselves! The help are all on holiday today, and the two of us women are unreliable cooks, so we came out to eat. It’s the New Year, let’s both relax.”

Feng Fanghua explained. Since Qin Mu kept silent, she had to say a bit more.

”Is Qin Mu’s cooking still not good?”

Jing Qing awkwardly smiled, regarding Qin Mu’s culinary skills she really had ’heard long ago!’

”Let her say it herself!”

Feng Fanghua looked at Qin Mu and asked her.

Qin Mu then raised her eyes, smiled helplessly: ”If you’re going to laugh, go ahead and laugh; after all, I’ve done my best!”

”That’s also your good fortune, Yichen went to Paris for you, learned cooking, opened a hotel, you just follow him and enjoy the blessings!”

Jing Qing listed the things Mu Yichen had done for Qin Mu.

But Qin Mu couldn’t say if she was touched or wistful, many people had told her such things, about Mu Yichen’s dedication to her.

Yet he could live abroad for so many years for her, but couldn’t bear anger for a moment, and help her find Jian Yan.

That night, she heard him call his subordinates to stop searching for Jian Yan.

”Although meeting for the first time, I must thank you, if not for you, Xiaoqing might not be married to me today!”

Zhen Jie lifted his champagne glass, extending his arm to toast Qin Mu.

Qin Mu instinctively picked up her glass, but felt she couldn’t bear the word ’thanks.’

”Everything is just destiny!”

Qin Mu lightly clinked glasses with him, speaking only this softly.

Zhen Jie smiled a little, thinking this woman was rather cold, but it had nothing to do with him, so he didn’t bother.

”It can’t be just destiny alone, but those four words ’man makes things happen,’ I still keep them in mind, a woman like Mrs. Mu who grew up abroad would understand these words better than I do, right?”

Zhen Jie asked her softly, his temper still good.

Qin Mu took a small sip of champagne, only lightly smiled.

Feng Fanghua watched the young people chatting, then made an excuse to go to the bathroom.

After Feng Fanghua left, Jing Qing said to Qin Mu: ”You said our grievances are all past!”

Jing Qing looked at Qin Mu, asking her worriedly and quietly.

”Yes!”

Qin Mu agreed.

”Then why aren’t you happy?”

Jing Qing asked again.

Qin Mu then raised her eyes to look at her, realizing she was misunderstood and smiled: ”It’s not because of you guys, I just don’t feel well physically!”

Zhen Jie then looked at her, not seeing what’s wrong, but...

Zhen Jie carefully examined her face, later finding that her temple, covered by stray hair, seemed injured.

She found adhesive bandages uncomfortable and didn’t use them, using her hair to cover the wound, but if someone stared carefully, they would eventually spot her injury.

But usually, who would stare at her like this?

No one except Xiaomei, who was on honeymoon.

”Feeling unwell? Or arguing with Yichen?”

Jing Qing asked her again, not very urgently, yet understandingly.

”You saw it all, seems I don’t need to explain!”

Qin Mu struggled to smile, looking down at the food on her plate, suddenly finding it tasteless.

”I thought you two seemed off since yesterday, not meeting even when we bumped into each other at the amusement park. Later I asked Yichen, although he didn’t explain, I could tell from his expression there was a problem between you two. Now that you’re together, you must cherish each other.”
