His Beloved Treasure

She suddenly felt some regret, perhaps she should never have brought Huanhuan back in the first place.

She bent down to pick up Huanhuan and continued upstairs, praying in her heart that Huanhuan wouldn’t see her parents completely alienated from each other, praying for Huanhuan to have a happy childhood.

And just after the mother and daughter went upstairs, a red car stopped at the entrance of their studio.

Jing Qing looked at the room on the second floor with the light on and remembered the phone call mentioning that Qin Mu had moved in with her luggage and daughter this morning.

It was only when she saw Qin Mu lock the door from inside that she truly believed it.

When she was about to leave, she received a distress message from Qin Mingzhu on WeChat. Jing Qing glanced at her phone, then threw it back onto the passenger seat and drove away.

Meanwhile, Qin Mingzhu was trembling and sitting on the couch, her eyes swollen from crying.

”So it was you who arranged for someone to rape your own sister?”

As soon as Qin Haiming got home, he heard the conversation between mother and daughter, then he slapped her hard, asking her in disbelief.

”She is not my real sister. She is that whore’s child.”

”Smack!”

Another fierce slap. Qin Haiming was almost shaking, feeling numbness in his hand and shivering in himself.

”Why do you hit her? If you’re angry, hit me! Ever since that girl came back, you have been favoring her in every way. Do you also expect us, mother and daughter, to do the same as you? You not only neglect us but also come to blame us. You—didn’t you see how that girl treated us?”

”So it’s right for your daughter to arrange for such a filthy act? Even if you don’t consider Mumu as her real sister, as the daughters of Qin Haiming, do they have to fight and let the whole world know of the unhappiness in Qin Haiming’s family?”

Qin Haiming looked at the woman shielding her younger daughter and realized just how naive he had been.

How hard it was to maintain the appearance of peace.

He just wanted to make it up to Qin Mu a bit, but he found out that the mother and daughter didn’t agree at all.

Later, Zhang Rujia came to understand but couldn’t swallow her pride. Before sleep, she spoke to Qin Haiming, ”Haiming, I’m sorry.”

”Rujia, even if you don’t like Qin Mu, she was cast out since she was young. I already owe her so much. Even for my sake, you need to restrain yourself towards her.”

”Yes, haven’t I always kept out of her way obediently? Mingzhu is still young. Suddenly, a girl appears to compete for fatherly love, she can’t take it, can you understand that? Please forgive her this time, and I will supervise her properly in the future, okay?”

Qin Haiming turned around to look at the woman changing his pajamas and then nodded: ”It’s been hard on you!”

Zhang Rujia smiled: ”Just accept my good intentions.”

But that night, how many people really managed to sleep?

When Feng Fanghua insisted on taking her granddaughter back, Mu Yichen couldn’t sleep the whole night, and Qin Mu only fell asleep after midnight.

The summer was too stuffy, from evening to early morning, it remained uncomfortably hot.

Hence, a heavy rain poured down in the morning,

And with no delivery available, mother and daughter searched the first floor for pastries and milk brought by everyone else, then squatted on a wooden board, drinking milk and eating pastries, finishing their breakfast that way.

Seeing Huanhuan eating so happily, Qin Mu felt guilty; everyone had been given the day off, and mother and daughter planned to spend the day reading books and watching cartoons when a black sedan stopped at the front door.

Someone holding a black umbrella walked to the back of the car to welcome the person inside out.

Mother and daughter stood in front of the glass screen watching. In fact, as soon as the person stepped out, Qin Mu could guess it was Feng Fanghua without looking at the face.

From her feet to the hem of her skirt, there was no concealing her noble bearing.

Feng Fanghua, like her name, carried a sense of elegance.

”Grandma!”

Upon seeing her grandmother, Huanhuan immediately ran forward. Feng Fanghua walked in and immediately took her hand: ”My good granddaughter, how I’ve missed you.”

Now, Feng Fanghua felt something lacking in her heart just by not seeing her for a day.

Qin Mu invited her to sit inside, then seeing a few bags of desserts on the coffee table, immediately went to tidy up.

”You’re feeding my granddaughter this?”

Feng Fanghua immediately asked in displeasure upon seeing them.

”Ah! It started raining suddenly, so the delivery couldn’t come this morning, and we made do.”

”I don’t care what you did before and it was not possible for me to interfere, but from now on, if you feed my granddaughter these un-nutritious junk foods again, don’t bother bringing her.”
