His Beloved Treasure

Qin Mu became somewhat nervous when Feng Fanghua brought up the kindergarten. She knew saying this would upset Feng Fanghua, but she was more worried about her daughter’s safety than anything else.

Yesterday, when she was coming here, she felt like someone was following her. Frankly, if Huanhuan wasn’t by her side or Feng Fanghua’s, she really didn’t feel at ease leaving her with anyone else.

”Technically, she can start kindergarten at three, but if you don’t want to, there’s no rush. Your mom and I have time to look after her, and we’re happy to do so,”

Mu Zihao said slowly.

”Thank you, Mom and Dad!”

Qin Mu quickly whispered her thanks, treating the matter as settled.

”You don’t have a problem with the kindergartens here, do you? I’ll have you know, our city’s kindergarten is not one bit inferior to those abroad. Check it out for yourself if you don’t believe it,”

Feng Fanghua earnestly told her.

”It’s not that I’m worried about that, it’s just—Mom, there have been some things happening recently, and I feel that...”

Qin Mu couldn’t help but lick her lips, afraid that speaking out would worry her elders, but keeping silent would surely lead to a bigger misunderstanding.

”Can we talk about it after the summer vacation? That would be the time for class promotions, it should be a better time to start then,”

Qin Mu had no choice but to suggest more delicately.

”I think that would be fine!”

The elder nodded upon hearing this.

That suited Feng Fanghua too; she wasn’t really eager to send her granddaughter to kindergarten that early, she just didn’t like Qin Mu going against her.

”Has the studio been busy lately?”

Mu Zihao asked.

”It’s been alright, not too busy!”

”If it’s not too busy, why don’t you rest at home for a few days? If you need a quiet place to sketch, feel free to use the study,”

Mu Zihao continued.

Qin Mu looked at him, somewhat bewildered by the unexpected favor.

”Your dad’s noticed you’ve lost weight recently and wants you to stay home so we can take care of you and help you regain your strength,”

Feng Fanghua explained, fearing she wouldn’t understand.

”Thank you, Mom and Dad!”

Qin Mu quickly expressed her gratitude.

”We’re family, there’s no need for thanks, but you can’t just keep making do at a time like this. Your mother told me that yesterday when she went to see you, you were eating noodles. How can you eat such non-nutritious food every day while you’re pregnant?”

Mu Zihao said.

”I need to drop by the shop this morning. The renovations are almost done, and I need to check if there is anything else that needs to be improved. I’ll definitely be back for lunch,”

Qin Mu said.

”Hmm! If you’re too tired to drive yourself, have the family driver take you,”

”Okay!”

Qin Mu agreed.

But she didn’t use the family driver, nor did she drive herself; Zhao Huai was again her chauffeur.

As Zhao Huai drove her to Central Street, he couldn’t help but say, ”During this time you were gone, Yichen bro has been looking utterly dejected. It’s taken the fun out of drinking for all of us. At least you’re back now.”

”Sounds like I’m quite important!”

”Of course! Extremely important!”

Zhao Huai complimented her while driving.

”None of us went home that night, but it’s a pity we weren’t of much help.”

”You all did your best, let’s not dwell on it anymore.”

Qin Mu explained.

Zhao Huai didn’t say anything more; he knew they hadn’t done enough.

”How did you find out Yichen was at Meilin’s place?”

”I contacted Yang Qianxi, she told me!”

Zhao Huai shook his head after hearing that: ”That woman is really cunning!”

”How’s she doing now?”

”She won’t die! Yichen has someone keeping an eye on her!”

”What do you mean by that?”

”Didn’t you know? Jing Qing wanted to put her to death, but Yichen believes she must have some important information, so he spared her life.”

Zhao Huai continued to speak with her.

Qin Mu’s heart stirred slightly. Yang Qianxi certainly knew a lot, and now Qin Mu even suspected that in that incident, Jing Qing had been manipulated by Yang Qianxi, otherwise why would Jing Qing want to resort to killing?

After arriving, Qin Mu got out of the car. Zhao Huai rolled down the window: ”Xiaomu, I’ll wait for you outside! But don’t worry about me!”

Qin Mu smiled, understanding that he meant he was watching over her.

The store’s photos had been printed, incredibly exquisite, upscale, and impressive. Qin Mu stood there, looked up at them for a while, then walked inside.

Zhao Huai immediately made a phone call to Mu Yichen: ”Someone’s following my car!”

”It’s Wang Huanyu, be careful!”

”Got it!”

Zhao Huai hung up the phone and continued to wait there, chewing gum.
