His Beloved Treasure

After all, each matter has its own place, right?

After dinner, one of us would accompany our daughter to bathe, while the other cleaned up the kitchen and then dealt with emails on the phone.

It seemed that since living separately, the two of us each had our own things to do every evening, except for when we went to bed.

Later, while Qin Mu was drawing, Xiaomei sent her a message saying Yang Qianxi was back. After seeing Yang Qianxi, Qin Mu suddenly thought of Mu Yichen and sent Xiaomei one word: Hmm!

”Hmm? I don’t have a place for her to stay tonight, surely I can’t let her go to other colleagues’ rooms?”

”You’ll just have to make do with her for now, we’ll deal with this tomorrow. Can you do me this favor?”

Qin Mu sent her a message back, saying that no matter what, they couldn’t let the girl sleep on the streets now, and besides, Yang Qianxi hadn’t made any substantial mistakes.

She was just admiring their CEO Mu, that’s all!

”Fine, but you must sort this person out tomorrow; I can’t let her sleep in my room anyway.”

Xiaomei was still somewhat reluctant but agreed to help Qin Mu out.

That night, the two girls didn’t sleep well together in one bed, and Yang Qianxi even asked about Mu Yichen.

Hahaha, Xiaomei now understood why Qin Mu didn’t want Yang Qianxi around.

Afterward, when Qin Mu and Mu Yichen lay in bed after exercising, Qin Mu, out of boredom, asked him, ”You’re not really going to skip Mu Qingxin’s wedding, are you? I promised Mu Qingxin I would bring you.”

”Not going!”

Mu Yichen turned his back to her again.

Qin Mu turned her head, looked at his back, and raised her hand to tear at his arm, gripping his arm and pulling it towards her: Turn your head this way! Don’t turn your back on me!

Actually, Mu Yichen was happy to turn around, but he pretended to be unwilling.

”There’s nothing to talk about regarding this matter, and it has nothing to do with you. Don’t worry about it unnecessarily!”

He said languidly, his cold gaze fixed on her.

Qin Mu...

It has nothing to do with her?

This...

Is awkward!

Qin Mu slowly turned around and went back to the window.

If he says it has nothing to do with her and tells her not to worry, what can she say?

Later, she would just tell Mu Qingxin that her brother asked her not to interfere and that it doesn’t concern her.

Qin Mu thought this but couldn’t help feeling a little sad inside.

This man... Had he ever really seen her as part of the Mu Family?

Perhaps it was she who had unilaterally integrated herself into that family.

Mu Yichen, seeing that she had calmed down, also decided to sleep. He was annoyed, too; his sister was getting married, and he, as her brother, was still kept hidden and unable to show face publicly.

Is he really that disgraceful?

In fact, he didn’t know that in Qin Mu’s heart, they had long been husband and wife, recognized as a couple by everyone.

Even though their status as a married couple wasn’t public yet, with them having a child and cohabiting, who in Rongcheng didn’t know they were a family?

The next morning Qin Mu got up early to go for a run, utterly frustrated, and then encountered a handsome neighbor who was also running. The handsome man slowed down when he saw her and greeted her with a smile: Hey!

Qin Mu lifted her eyes, wow, such an attractive young man.

”Hey!”

”We’re from the same neighborhood. I often see you with your husband and daughter commuting.”

”Is that so? What a coincidence!”

However, facing a handsome man, Qin Mu was still not one to get too familiar, only managing to ask awkwardly with a nervous smile.

”You don’t talk much usually, do you? I always see you with your head down.”

”Uh!”

Clearly, the handsome man loved to talk, clad in thin running gear, with his shirt clinging to his toned chest as he ran, making Qin Mu feel like his chest was even higher than hers.

Um...

After realizing her thoughts had wandered, Qin Mu’s face immediately flushed, she turned her face away not to let him see her embarrassment, and it took considerable effort to regain her composure.

”Do you want to pick up the pace and run a couple of laps with me?”

Suddenly, the handsome man ran in front of her, running backward while asking her.

Qin Mu stared blankly, shook her head vigorously, so much that she made herself dizzy: ”No thanks, you go ahead!”

She had to refuse, first because she couldn’t keep up, second because she couldn’t keep up, and third because she still couldn’t keep up.

After the handsome man left, her jog turned into a walk because she was already sweating and couldn’t run anymore.

He was in thin sportswear, and yet she was in a thick down jacket; nonetheless, she really was out for exercise.

She had intended to energize herself, but now...

Later, as she walked, playing with her phone, the handsome man would greet her each time he ran past. Qin Mu just looked up and gave a silly smile in return. After three or four laps, she decided to head back because she had only walked one and a half laps, but when she returned to the neighborhood, she saw the handsome man returning as well.
