His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 1798: Chapter 507: So You Were Jealous All Along!

”Is it really you?”

Just as Fan Qing was about to turn around and go back in to find Qin Mu, someone not far away called out to her.

”Tan Yiwen?”

Fan Qing was also puzzled about how they could bump into each other in a place like this.

”You’ve changed your style?”

Tan Yiwen stepped forward, looking at the girl in a long dress before him. He was a bit unaccustomed, noticing she no longer appeared as sharp or nondescript as before. Suddenly, she seemed much more artistic, much more serene.

”Yeah! Are you here to buy clothes?”

Fan Qing felt a bit nervous, tentatively questioning him in a small voice.

”Yes! In the evening, Zhang Hongyun asked me to go shopping with her. I figured I can’t wear the same suit every day. You know her, she already looks down on me!”

As Tan Yiwen said this, he lowered his head, staring at his fingertips.

Fan Qing couldn’t help but look at his fingertips. His fingers were clean and fair; they were the kind she liked.

However, a friend’s wife should not be coveted, and she had no intention of taking her friend’s fiancé. Yet the words Zhang Hongyun said last night did spark a little thought.

”How about accompanying me for another round inside?”

Tan Yiwen suddenly invited her.

Fan Qing was surprised, looking at him. He had never invited her to do anything before, even though they had known each other for many years.

However, Fan Qing also understood that today she couldn’t say much to Qin Mu anymore, so she nodded in agreement.

Later, as Fan Qing and Tan Yiwen left, Qin Mu and Wang Li stood at the store entrance. Wang Li murmured, ”Why do I feel like there’s quite a story between those two!”

”Or maybe not just two!”

Qin Mu turned and walked inside, whispering.

Wang Li followed Qin Mu, unconsciously becoming more interested in these people.

——

In the evening, Qin Mu heard that Huanhuan was upset and had locked herself in the playroom, not allowing anyone else in. Only Chengcheng sat high on the slide, watching her sister sulk amidst all the ocean balls.

Hmm! Chengcheng’s expression was also dazed! She must have wanted to care for her sister, wanted to make her happy, but couldn’t find a way.

When Qin Mu pushed open the door, she saw the siblings, one high and one low, separated by such a distance, helplessly letting out a light sigh.

Has Huanhuan now reached an age where she has her own thoughts?

A child only in first grade.

”Why so unhappy? Grandpa and Grandma are so worried!”

Qin Mu took off her heels, walked in, and sat with Huanhuan in the ocean balls, coaxing her softly to share her thoughts.

”You know, there are some problems that Mom and Dad can’t solve, but there are also some problems that Mom and Dad can help with. So if I were you, I’d definitely tell Mom and Dad and let them help find a solution!”

Qin Mu raised her hand, gently touching Huanhuan’s head, rare in her tenderness.

”Then, did you tell Grandpa everything when you were little?”

Huanhuan was still sulking, holding her knees tightly, looking up with innocent eyes at her temporarily warm-hearted mom.

Qin Mu’s gaze froze for a moment, as did her hand on her daughter’s hair.

”Of course, I did! Your grandpa used to dot on me, so I told him everything!”

Qin Mu kept her eyes open, starting to tell a little white lie.

”So, did Grandpa solve all your problems?”

Huanhuan seemed to have forgotten her anger, merely staring at the mother beside her, continuing to ask questions as if she had already reached the bright exit.

”Yes!”

Qin Mu nodded.

”Then I want to tell Dad!”

Huanhuan thought for a moment and said this to Qin Mu.

Qin Mu...

Thinking to herself, ”I put in so much effort, and you want to tell your dad? What does that make me?”

”Can’t you tell me? I can solve a lot of problems too.”

”But Dad’s better!”

Huanhuan said, no longer looking at Qin Mu, instead starting to play with the ocean balls around her.

Qin Mu felt a rush of frustration, almost fainting.

”Mom, have you ever met Grandma? When did Grandma pass away?”

Huanhuan suddenly raised her head again, innocently asking Qin Mu these questions.

Qin Mu sat quietly by her side, unable to get angry again, the corners of her mouth pulling into a wry smile: ”When mom was about your age, Grandma had a car accident while driving and then she left us. Huanhuan, why are you suddenly asking mom these questions today?”

”Huanhuan’s so pitiful, never got to meet Grandma! But mom’s even more pitiful, losing her mother at such a young age. Mom, you must never leave Huanhuan, you must drive carefully, okay?”

Huanhuan suddenly hugged Qin Mu’s slender waist, continuously looking at her while speaking.
