His Beloved Treasure

”Oh no!”

Jing Qing hadn’t been paying attention to little Huanhuan, preoccupied with cozying up to Mu Qingxin, when Huanhuan suddenly bumped into her.

Knowing that Mu Yichen would be there tonight, she had purposely worn a beautiful skirt paired with her white coat. Since the coat had no buttons and was open, when Huanhuan ran into her, the cake hit right below her abdomen, staining the fabric. Jing Qing’s expression changed dramatically, but seeing how frightened Huanhuan was, she held back her temper and didn’t lash out.

Mu Qingxin, with her protruding belly, stepped forward, ”Huanhuan, how can you be so careless and bump into the pretty auntie?”

Looking wronged, Huanhuan glanced at her beloved aunt and then turned to run off to find Feng Fanghua.

Feng Fanghua naturally kept quiet, while Qin Mu, sitting in a single-seater sofa, curiously checked out Jing Qing’s awkward plight.

”It’s okay, it’s okay!”

Jing Qing said with a smile.

”There’re some tissues over there, just wipe it off and wear it for now. The little kid ruined her favorite cake and must feel sad too, surely you don’t mind getting your dress dirty, right?”

Mu Qingxin said, pulling her toward the sofa as she spoke.

Feng Fanghua had no idea what play her daughter was putting on, thinking she was actually friends with Jing Qing.

”I’ll help you wipe it!”

After sitting down, Mu Qingxin took a piece of tissue intending to clean Jing Qing’s dress, but Jing Qing quickly grabbed her hand, ”No need, I can do it myself. Who knew you would change so much?”

Jing Qing said, looking at her swollen belly as if she did not see Qin Mu at all.

”Right! Hehe!”

Mu Qingxin subconsciously touched her belly, which was not only Jiang Yan’s treasure but also hers.

”Auntie!”

Jing Qing called out to Feng Fanghua over Mu Qingxin’s shoulder.

”Hmm!”

Feng Fanghua replied lazily, not eager to talk more, and then took her little granddaughter’s hand, ”Grandma will take you to the kitchen to get a new piece of cake, okay?”

Huanhuan nodded vigorously and before leaving, she huffed at Jing Qing.

Jing Qing...

Mu Qingxin watched the little girl and couldn’t help but laugh to herself, thinking how clever the child was and quite like her aunt too.

”Jing Qing sister, you’ve lost a lot of weight recently, haven’t you? Is it because of this woman who has stolen my brother?”

Mu Qingxin suddenly asked.

At the moment, only the three of them were on the couch. Hearing this, Jing Qing subconsciously looked at Qin Mu, Qin Mu subconsciously looked at Mu Qingxin, and Mu Qingxin stared back at Jing Qing.

”That’s all in the past.”

Jing Qing said softly, still trying to maintain a good image in front of Mu Qingxin.

”What past? Don’t you love my brother anymore? This woman has been monopolizing my brother since we were little, and now she dares to have a child with him. Isn’t she too lawless?”

Qin Mu...

It was the first time she had seen such a bold little sister-in-law. She was momentarily speechless, feeling as if the best of the drama was yet to come, so Qin Mu continued to stay silent.

”You’re really not fond of her, huh? She’s your sister-in-law now, after all.”

”She’s the same age as me! Why should I call her sister-in-law? I’ll just call her Qin Mu, humph! I’ll remember forever how she stole my brother!”

Upon hearing this, Jing Qing was utterly flattered, her face taking on an unnaturally expressive look.

”Hey, Qin Mu, don’t you think you’re being too extreme? Are you planning to monopolize my brother for a lifetime?”

Mu Qingxin challenged Qin Mu a bit loudly.

Jing Qing, watching eagerly like it was a good show, stopped worrying about her expensive dress getting stained and difficult to clean; her mood instantly lifted, feeling almost light-headed with glee.

”If possible, of course, I would want to monopolize him for as many lifetimes as I can.”

Qin Mu replied nonchalantly to Mu Qingxin.

In Qin Mu’s heart, Mu Qingxin was absolutely not the kind of unreasonable person, especially since Mu Qingxin was even winking at her at that moment.

”Hahaha, then you’ll have to design my wedding dress with your own hands. Rest assured, I’m not someone who would forget past favors like some people. If you make me shine at my wedding, I will absolutely help you to get along with my brother for a few more lifetimes. But if you make me look bad, I won’t let you off the hook.”

...

Mu Qingxin went off-topic the more she talked, but...

Qin Mu suddenly realized it was indeed a good topic to stray to, and subconsciously glanced at Jing Qing, whose expression was becoming quite serious and even a little pale.

Qin Mu also found out that though Mu Qingxin was not in Rongcheng, she knew everything about it.

Perhaps when her brother Mu Yi cared about his sister’s private life, as a sister, she had always been watching her brother’s private life too?

”Jing Qing sister must despise those who burn their bridges after crossing, right? I’ve heard of many such cases abroad, where big stars wear clothes designed by designers who aren’t famous yet. Once they gain fame, they refuse to credit the designer, whether it’s for fear others will steal their designer, or they don’t want the designer to become famous. It’s just very selfish. I recall Jing Qing sister used to look down the most on people who bully others less fortunate than themselves just because they have some abilities.”
