His Beloved Treasure

”I’m the criminal? You are the one who is instigating me to commit crimes, and if the police really were to make arrests, they would arrest you first, got it?”

Yang Qianxi also laughed, thinking that this girl was simply foolish, and she had been played by such an idiot for so long.

”Don’t slander me; whatever you and Jing Qing have conspired is known to you two alone, so don’t try to lay the blame on me when things go south.”

Qin Mingzhu pointed her finger at her, her voice trembling as she continued her desperate defense.

Qin Mu just stood by watching the two argue, and then suddenly remembered the footage from the surveillance camera. Glancing at Qin Mingzhu’s face, she unconsciously opened her mouth but said nothing.

How much good karma did Qin Haiming accumulate in his past life to allow his beloved daughter to squander it like this in this lifetime?

”How can you say such shameless things? If you hadn’t stolen Miss Qin’s sketches from here and given them to me, I wouldn’t even know her, let alone get my hands on those sketches. If you hadn’t provided the apartment, how could I afford to live in such a luxurious place? If it wasn’t for your introduction, how would I have come to know the major star Jing Qing?”

After saying this, Yang Qianxi couldn’t help glancing at the indifferent Qin Mu: ”Miss Qin, everything I said is true!”

”You’re talking nonsense! Just spouting rubbish!,” Qin Mingzhu said, unable to believe that she had actually complained to Qin Mu.

”Qin Mingzhu, show the composure befitting a lady from a distinguished family. Don’t disgrace your father by making a scene here,” Qin Mu coldly interjected, unable to listen any further.

”How have I disgraced my father?”

Seeing Qin Mu’s demeanor, Qin Mingzhu knew immediately that she was not trusted and retorted on the spot.

”Do you want me to play the surveillance footage for you?”

Qin Mu asked her with a calm and steady voice.

”What?”

Qin Mingzhu froze, her face gradually whitening.

”This studio may not be large, but it’s filled with designers’ hard work, so every corner is under surveillance. Do I need to continue?”

”I, I... I was just curious and took the photos for fun; how was I supposed to know they would end up with Jing Qing and this woman? You’d rather believe these outsiders than your own sister. I... I never want to see you again.”

After speaking, Qin Mingzhu ran out, forgetting entirely the purpose of her visit.

After Qin Mingzhu left, Yang Qianxi’s eyes were blurred with tears. Qin Mu turned and saw her pitiful state, sighing involuntarily.

”I know the children of wealthy families like yours are all manipulative, but I didn’t expect Qin Mingzhu to be this kind of person!”

Qin Mu was startled by her comment about the manipulative nature of the wealthy family’s children and unconsciously responded, ”I am not a child of any wealthy family.”

After hearing this, Yang Qianxi stopped crying and looked at her in astonishment.

”If you hadn’t harbored hope of getting away with plagiarism, how could she have exploited you? So, when trouble arises, don’t be quick to point fingers at others, but also think about your own issues.”

Yang Qianxi opened her mouth to speak but before she could say anything, Qin Mu resignedly said, ”Let’s go have dinner.”

Yang Qianxi had no choice but to follow Qin Mu outside, but her heart felt extremely heavy and aggrieved. The humiliation Qin Mingzhu had caused her seemed indelible, and she couldn’t just let it slide.

In the afternoon, when Qin Mu went to the garment factory to check on the finished products, Mr. Mu called her mobile phone: ”Are you busy again?”

”Not busy, I’m at the garment factory. I’ll be back soon.”

”Drive slowly, Huanhuan and I will go there to wait for you, and we’ll return to the apartment later.”

Mu Yichen hung up after speaking, then looked at his little daughter sleeping in his arms, and all negative emotions vanished when he saw Huanhuan’s sleeping face.

He was just worried; she had only just been discharged from the hospital this morning and was already running around. If anything else happened...

Qin Mu didn’t know why he was being cold, but she also felt particularly coldhearted recalling this morning’s events at the Mu Family residence.

When Mu Yichen suddenly said he would move out of the Mu Family residence, Feng Fanghua naturally suspected her as the cause. And then what?

How would things change between her and Feng Fanghua?

Or could it be that Mu Yichen felt that she had been wronged, and that’s why he wanted to move out?

But she hadn’t said a word to Mu Yichen about it.

As expected, when she and her colleague returned in the afternoon, Huanhuan was already in the studio, but surprisingly, Mr. Mu was not there.

”Mr. Mu has gone to the neighboring fruit and vegetable shop to buy something. He said he’ll be right back.”
