His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 2021: Chapter 579: Honey, That Kind of Person Isn’t Worth Chasing You

Mu Yichen came out from inside, the wind lifted the hem of his coat, causing him to squint his eyes and look at the confrontation between the two women at the bottom of the steps.

”Why haven’t you left?”

Mu Yichen went down, asking someone beside him, but as Yang Qin instinctively turned to look at him, he walked straight towards Qin Mu.

Yang Qin felt a void in her heart and only whispered: ”I was just about to leave when I ran into the Madam coming to pick you up. I’ll leave first, you two be careful on the road!”

Yang Qin felt the indescribable awkwardness and then left with her head down.

Qin Mu turned her head to look at her; in terms of eye contact, she considered herself unmatched by anyone except Mu Yichen.

Mu Yichen raised his hand to cover her eyes, and only when he felt she had adjusted with her eyes closed did he slowly release his hand: ”Is she that good looking?”

”She looks at me, so I look at her back!”

Qin Mu replied, rolling her eyes at him, then opened the car door and got in.

Mu Yichen...

”Starting tomorrow, I won’t be picking you up anymore!”

As Qin Mu started the car, she told him sincerely.

”Hmm?”

Mu Yichen turned to look at her, fastening his seatbelt with a ’click’ sound.

”I mean starting tomorrow, I won’t come to pick you up. If you still feel you can’t drive yourself, just have the family driver pick you up.”

Qin Mu said this as she drove away from his office building.

Mu Yichen squinted at her without asking anything or saying anything, just gazing at her with puzzlement, after a while slightly biting his lip.

A man’s lip-biting is unlike all the different feelings of a woman’s; Mu Yichen bit a bit of lip flesh beside his teeth and ground it before releasing.

”Can I refuse this proposal?”

After a moment, there was a sound in the car again.

Qin Mu glanced sideways at him and then mercilessly said: ”No, you cannot!”

”Sigh, then from tomorrow, I’ll be picking you up!”

President Mu was ensnared in this reciprocal pickup lifestyle.

”No need either!”

Qin Mu had no doubt that Mu Yichen would maintain this pickup habit for life, even if they grew old and couldn’t drive themselves, he would still find a driver and sit beside her in the back seat to wherever she wanted to go.

But truly there’s no need to do this every day.

She was initially concerned about his injury, but recently his injury had mostly healed, and she really didn’t want to continue visiting his office building where she might run into people she preferred to avoid.

Mu Yichen glanced at her again, feeling powerless against her, thus saying nothing more, just observing the autumn scenery outside all the way to the Mu Family estate.

——

”Dad, we had exams today!”

In the evening, Huanhuan pulled Mu Yichen into the room, closing the door, and whispered to him.

Mu Yichen crouched by the door with her, looking at her worried little expression, he couldn’t help but wrinkling his brows, feeling a bad premonition.

”What score did you get?”

His voice was very soft, not wanting to scare his daughter.

Huanhuan said nothing, but turned to the desk to fetch her two test papers and handed them over to Mu Yichen.

Mu Yichen remained crouched at the door without standing up. Holding his daughter’s test papers, he first looked at her mistakes rather than the scores in the top right corner, then involuntarily furrowing his brows again.

”Dad, I promise the next test will be better.”

Huanhuan bowed her head, occasionally glancing nervously at her dad, speaking with such assurance it was as if she were certain the next one would be good.

”Eighty-nine in Chinese, ninety-two in Math, how far down the list are you?”

Mu Yichen inquired, seeing those mistakes were all from Huanhuan’s lack of attention, feeling slightly concerned.

”I don’t know, but there are scores over sixty, you know!”

Huanhuan mentioned others scoring over sixty, straightening her back in the process.

Mu Yichen nodded: ”Go show them to your Mom, tell her you’ll do better next time.”

”I’m afraid Mom will be mad, Dad, if she gets angry, you should try to calm her!”

Huanhuan was anxious but couldn’t stop herself from complaining, feeling she understood her Mom’s temperament too well.

”Off you go!”

Mu Yichen chuckled lightly, then carefully folded the test papers and handed them to Huanhuan.

Qin Mu had just showered and was about to check if Huanhuan was asleep, only to find Huanhuan coming to her first, dressed in pajamas and holding something in her hands, like test papers?

”Had an exam?”

Qin Mu asked her softly.

Huanhuan nodded her head, then nervously hid the test papers behind her: ”Promise first that you won’t get angry after looking!”

”Okay!”

Qin Mu agreed, causing Huanhuan to feel she sounded dismissive, so she stared harder at her.

”Alright! I promise I won’t get mad!”
