His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 1732: Chapter 484: Dad (Part 3)_3

Feng Fanghua lifted her gaze and looked at Qin Mu, asking.

”Hmm!”

Qin Mu nodded.

The air pressure in the living room was a bit low.

Feng Fanghua saw Qin Mu’s passive acceptance and knew Qin Mu was actually smart inside, just not fond of explaining to her much. So she asked again, ”Tell me what you’d do.”

Qin Mu instinctively lifted her eyes and looked at her.

”Tell me, if he comes to see you, what would you do?”

Feng Fanghua repeated her question.

”Avoid him if I can, and if I can’t, I’ll tell him directly that there’s no chance between us.”

Actually, Qin Mu had said such things before.

After hearing this, Feng Fanghua felt as if a great burden was lifted from her heart.

”You’ve always been a smart child. I believe when the time comes, you’ll know what to say. Just remember, Mumu, when a man really fixates on a woman, it might cause her a lot of trouble. That’s why I hope, if possible, you just act like you don’t know him, keep your head down and walk past him.”

Feng Fanghua sighed, advising Qin Mu, although she knew she was being overly concerned.

”Hmm! I know!”

Qin Mu listened and agreed.

Qin Mu understood that Feng Fanghua wanted her to avoid trouble.

”Hmm!”

Feng Fanghua didn’t say anything more this time. Seeing how obedient Qin Mu was, she still trusted her.

However, Liu Jingyuan had actually gotten divorced. She could see that the couple had once treated each other sincerely.

But who can really tell when it comes to marriage?

If she were Liu Jingyuan’s wife, she would have divorced him too.

But the woman Liu Jingyuan liked happened to be Qin Mu, and Qin Mu was not happy. She hadn’t done anything, remembering knowing Liu Jingyuan through Jing Qing. They only met because of that. Why did she become the villain?

Qin Mu felt a bit angry inside but was helpless.

”Mom, Mu Chengyang made the bathroom all wet!”

Huanhuan suddenly ran out, calling to Qin Mu and pointing to the bathroom on the first floor.

Qin Mu turned to look, asking in a low voice, ”What happened?”

”Mu Chengyang sprayed me with a water gun!”

Then the siblings had a water gun battle in the bathroom, and then...

”Oh my! My little ancestor, are you cold? Zhang Jie, quickly take Huanhuan to change clothes.”

Feng Fanghua immediately stood up, looked at her granddaughter’s wet little face, frowned and shouted inside. When Zhang Jie took Huanhuan upstairs to change clothes, Qin Mu and Feng Fanghua were already standing at the bathroom door.

Chengcheng had just refilled the water gun, heard the noise thinking it was Huanhuan, turned around with the water gun, and happened to point it in between Qin Mu and Feng Fanghua, startling Feng Fanghua, Qin Mu’s face changed dramatically: ”Mu Chengyang!”

Chengcheng heard his mom’s shout and was so scared that the water gun dropped on the ground, standing speechless looking at the doorway.

”Why are you shouting at him?”

Feng Fanghua heard Qin Mu’s words, gave her a stern glance, and then immediately went forward with a gentle tone, ”Oh dear! My dear grandson, are you scared? Don’t be afraid, grandma is here!”

Qin Mu...

Chengcheng felt safer as grandma crouched beside him, but his eyes still didn’t leave Qin Mu’s face. When he saw Qin Mu’s expression a bit crestfallen, he slowly lowered his head and softly said to grandma, ”Grandma, I’m okay!”

”It’s okay! Thankfully our Chengcheng is brave. Your mother was really too much, wasn’t she?”

Feng Fanghua muttered, stood up and led Chengcheng away, ”Grandma will take you to change clothes! Be careful not to catch a cold!”

Not sparing Qin Mu a glance, Qin Mu turned to watch them leave and helplessly called out, ”Mom...”

Mom, can you stop indulging him like this?

But the words wouldn’t come out, as Feng Fanghua completely ignored her and didn’t like hearing such talk.

Qin Mu sighed, feeling a headache, that boy played without any sense of proportion, soaking his sister and himself all over. If it were someone else’s home, saying a few words as parents would be expected, but in their house...

Mu Yichen came down from upstairs, saw Qin Mu at the staircase, frowning as if lost in thought, and leisurely walked up to her.

Qin Mu snapped back to reality, saw him and unhappily snorted, ”Did you see how your son was acting?”

Mu Yichen turned around, saw Feng Fanghua already far away with Chengcheng, and softly asked her, ”It’s normal for little boys to be mischievous!”

He saw it, coincidentally catching them on his way down, saw his son all wet, knowing he’d played with the water gun again.

”Since when did you become so open-minded?”

Qin Mu incredulously looked at him and asked.

He used to be unable to tolerate Chengcheng playing like that, and now he was saying it’s normal?

”Alright! Is it worth getting angry over such a small matter? I’ll talk to him later, okay?”

”You better talk to him! Mom always shields him, I just...”

”Aren’t you confident in my handling?”

Qin Mu felt restless inside, Mr. Mu’s words today, why did they make her feel so uncomfortable?

Feeling like she’s being brushed off.

Chengcheng and Huanhuan were especially quiet until dinner, usually chatting a lot during meals, but today not a word, after dinner they jumped down and went upstairs on their own.

Once the siblings left, Feng Fanghua began muttering, ”You’ve been glaring at them all dinner, what for? They’re just kids and don’t understand anything, neither of them is angry with each other. Yet you, throughout this meal, didn’t give them a single good face.”

Qin Mu heard that and couldn’t say anything negative, just smiled, ”Mom, one of us acts stern while the other plays nice, it’s all good!”

Feng Fanghua...

Even Mu Zihao couldn’t help but glance up at Qin Mu, suppressing laughter and lowering his head to eat.

Mu Yichen listened to his wife say this and remained silent, feeling Qin Mu wasn’t wrong for saying so.

”Who’s performing good-cop bad-cop with you? What! You think I only act nice in front of my grandkids? You’re thinking I hope you scold them?”

Feng Fanghua put down her chopsticks slowly, displeased, and began to argue with Qin Mu.

”Mom, I didn’t mean that!”

Qin Mu was frightened, quickly explaining.

——

After dinner, Qin Mu was silent for a while. When she was going upstairs, she stopped by Feng Fanghua’s room, watched Feng Fanghua about to enter, and called out to her, ”Mom, I really didn’t mean it like that earlier! I just think it’s okay for me to be a bit stern, since you always spoil them, the whole family can’t be indulging them, or their temperament will be spoiled. I willingly play the villain!”

”Alright, alright! I won’t mention it anymore, why are you still talking so much? You better think about how to explain the Liu Jingyuan matter to your husband later!”

After saying this, Feng Fanghua entered the room and closed the door from inside, and Qin Mu lingered for a while, staring at the cold, hard door, unwilling to look away.
