His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 2139: Chapter 617: Husband Arrives

Helian Hao kept thinking about it and felt uneasy, but Qin Mu’s personality wouldn’t let her heed any advice, so when they reached the hotel, she just let it be.

After Qin Mu and Helian Hao entered the private room, Helian Hao quickly blended in with the others. Some called her Xiaohao, some addressed her by name, and others referred to her as ”sister-in-law” because of Jing Feng. As for Qin Mu, others recognized her, but she didn’t recognize them.

”Sit here!”

The seat next to Gongzhi Ping’an was empty, and he softly suggested it, seemingly just to ease her awkwardness.

”Thank you!”

Qin Mu said softly, sitting down only after Helian Hao had taken her seat. She then heard Helian Hao say to Gongzhi Ping’an across from her, ”With so many people here, watch what you say and do.”

Gongzhi Ping’an didn’t even look up but smiled gently.

Helian Hao knew he understood, so she said no more.

”Why don’t you all introduce yourselves? My friend here probably doesn’t remember everyone.”

Gongzhi Ping’an politely suggested to the group.

Even if they introduced themselves, Qin Mu felt she didn’t have the ability to remember everyone, but she smiled as she watched them stand up one by one to introduce themselves.

A very straightforward girl laughed warmly and said to Qin Mu, ”We even fought when we were kids, but back then you would just cry while Jing Feng and Mu Yichen protected you. Do you remember?”

Qin Mu shook her head, she really couldn’t recall.

Some kids start forming memories at a very young age.

Qin Mu was like a little flower in a greenhouse back then, cherished by her parents and adored by older kids in the neighborhood, never remembering the past.

Thinking about her childhood now, she finds herself a bit speechless.

”How could she remember any of that, her brain’s not that sharp!”

Helian Hao teased her.

Qin Mu laughed, lowering her head to sip her tea, masking her embarrassment.

”See, her brain isn’t sharp, I called her silly and she just giggled. By the way, Liu Yuan, are you working at Qin Mu’s husband’s place now?”

”Yes! But I’m in the tech department, so I don’t often see Mr. Mu. Otherwise, I might take advantage of Qin Mu to get in touch.”

”What’s wrong with getting in touch? With just one word from our Xiao Mumu, that big boss Mu would nod and let you in, as long as you’re not being overly forward.”

Helian Hao said with a smile.

”Oh, I wouldn’t dare be overly forward. Honestly, at work, no woman dares to deliberately get too close to President Mu, everyone knows his heart is with our Xiao Mumu.”

Liu Yuan said, winking at Qin Mu, who could only respond with an awkward yet polite smile. She then added, ”But Qin Mu, you really have to be cautious. President Mu and Secretary Yang have had rumors floating around the office more than once.”

”Oh, that Secretary Yang, it’s just rumors. She’s Qin Mu’s person!”

Having found out what she needed, Helian Hao made up an excuse.

Liu Yuan was too shocked to speak, while Qin Mu silently sipped her tea, only those who truly cared for her could come up with such nonsense to fool others.

Gongzhi Ping’an listened in silence, pouring Qin Mu a cup of water when her teacup was empty. Qin Mu thanked him quietly and politely, to which he smiled and said, ”No need to be so formal!”

During the gathering, they created a group for all the childhood friends and each person added Qin Mu on WeChat.

Qin Mu felt overwhelmed, unsure how to refuse, as her phone lay on the table and they queued up to scan her code, making her feel like this was more about receiving some benefit than adding friends.

”Alright everyone, let’s have a family photo toast, and then let’s call it a night!”

Gongzhi Ping’an, who had done quite well among them, carried weight in his words. When he stood and spoke, no one dared to object.

Suddenly, the door was knocked from outside.

Qiao Yi pushed the door open from the outside, seeing the lively crowd inside, he couldn’t help but chuckle, ”Quite a turnout here!”

”Brother Qiao!”

”Old Qiao!”

Amidst the greetings, some called him brother, and others used his name directly, making Qiao Yi unhappy as he put on a stern face, saying, ”Show some respect, everyone call me brother!”

He said no more, just looked outside, and the rest followed his gaze curiously. Someone hung up a call, pocketed their phone, and walked in, lifting their eyes to search the room for their wife’s face.
