His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 2189: Chapter 636: One Year Later (13) Are You Going with Me to Handle the Procedures? (2)

”How could I refuse? Auntie’s good intentions, I will surely accept them all!”

Chen Xiaoyi smiled, resembling a graceful young lady.

Listening to her, Feng Fanghua felt happy, her words were soothing and comforting.

Once they both entered, Mu Yichen drove off as well.

Xiang Hang had dinner with Qin Mu, and after just a few minutes, checked the time, got up, and left.

Qin Mu found herself alone in the house, and for some reason, after ten o’clock in the evening, she suddenly felt a bit timid. Seeing the darkness outside, she instinctively went to close all the curtains and lock every place that had a lock.

A bit regretful about coming to the island, as the pitch-black darkness and the cold wind blowing in made it feel like she was living in a horror movie.

The rain outside hadn’t stopped. She was lying on the bed in the largest room on the third floor, pressing two blankets tightly, still shivering a bit.

In the dark room, shivering continued due to the cold until she fell asleep, exhausted.

However, upon waking up in the morning, she suddenly realized the entire room was warm, and she herself felt cozy too.

The air conditioning...

When did this...

Who turned it on?

She quickly got up, still holding onto the blanket, her wide, anxious eyes darting around.

Opening the curtains, she slipped on her slippers and walked to the window, looking at the clean and blue sea outside, slightly furrowing her brows before turning and heading out.

Standing upstairs looking down, there was no one there, yet the entire house was warm.

Could it be that Xiang Hang found the remote control before leaving last night and just forgot to tell her?

Qin Mu could only think of this reason, as it was impossible for a thief to come and care about the warmth.

Later, for some unknown reason, she relaxed and went downstairs herself.

Expecting to eat last night’s leftovers, but upon opening the fridge, she found it filled with various delicacies, all her favorites.

Qin Mu instinctively took a box of shrimp dumplings out, planning to heat it up to eat. But when closing the fridge, her movements slowed down, her gaze slightly vacuous and puzzled.

Xiang Hang did bring some things last night, but it wasn’t much. By this morning, the fridge was full, and they were all foods she loved.

If she were in the city, she might guess Helian Hao or Qin Mingzhu had come by, but on this island, it could only be one person.

Does he still have time to care for her?

Qin Mu didn’t understand why he had left her here, as if he didn’t want her to see the child. Ever since she tried to leave that day but failed, upon returning, he refused to see her.

So why hasn’t he asked her to leave?

Despite being somewhat of a celebrity now, Mu always had her so easily cornered.

After finishing her meal, Qin Mu stood by the pool, staring at the vast island, thinking to herself, well, once she’s tired of this lifestyle, she’ll sell the island; she can afford to waste her days like this.

But when will he let her leave Rongcheng? He can’t expect her to live in Rongcheng for a year and a half, can he?

Is he going to make her watch him marry Chen Xiaoyi?

No, before they get married, he should first take her to the civil affairs bureau.

Qin Mu wandered around the island for a while then returned to the house. It was winter, and truly cold outside, her cold hadn’t gotten better.

Qin Mu didn’t leave the island the entire day; after breakfast, she curled up under a blanket on the sofa in the living room, not inclined to cook lunch, just lazing around on the sofa.

Qin Mingzhu and Helian Hao texted her, asking if she returned to Paris, but she didn’t reply, couldn’t resist a laugh before turning over to go back to sleep.

Instead, she received a video call from Chengcheng.

Upon seeing Chengcheng’s name, Qin Mu immediately sat up, using her hands to comb through her hair forcefully before answering the video call.

”Mom, where are you now? I miss you!”

”Hm! Mom misses you too. Who are you with now?”

Qin Mu listened to Chengcheng’s soft voice, yet didn’t immediately respond to his question, thinking to herself who he was with.

”I’m with Dad now. Dad said you’re still in the city, so I want Dad to take me to find you.”

Chengcheng continued to share his thoughts with her.

Qin Mu found herself in a bit of a dilemma, unsure whether to speak or not.

”Mom, why aren’t you talking? Don’t you want to see me? Do you dislike me?”

Chengcheng began to voice his doubts, turning slightly upset.

”Of course not! How could Mom dislike you? It’s just, Mom is now... Okay, you ask your dad to bring you over; Mom is on the island.”
