His Beloved Treasure

Feng Fanghua said with a smile.

Mu Yichen glanced at Jing Qing, then obediently held his bowl and spoon and drank all the soup.

Jing Qing’s heart warmed at his sudden glance, but it wasn’t until he had finished the soup that she felt at ease.

”Yichen is luckier than I am, I’m quite envious!”

Qin Haiming didn’t like it when people said his daughter wasn’t very knowledgeable; how much Jing Qing knew was something he had come to understand very clearly by today.

Jing Qing just didn’t like to express herself, that’s all.

The look in Qin Haiming’s eyes when he watched Jing Qing was filled with affection.

Jing Qing felt a bit embarrassed by his gaze but pretended to stay composed.

”Let’s discuss their wedding plans. With ample time, we can be more thorough.”

Mu Zihao brought up the serious matter.

”Sure! If the in-laws have any requests, just mention them!” the elder also said.

A table of delicious dishes lay before them, but no one was in a rush to touch them, simply sipping wine and discussing their wedding.

”Actually, my only request is for Mumu to be happy. As long as Mumu is happy, the scale of the wedding isn’t something I’m concerned about. You decide. Mumu, what do you say?”

After speaking, Qin Haiming turned to ask Jing Qing.

”I will listen to—”

”She will listen to me!”

Mu Yichen said as he picked up another bottle of wine, examined its label, then stepped out. A waiter stood at the door; he instructed, ”Replace the wine with the bottle I placed in the wine cabinet a few days ago.”

”Yes!”

The waiter immediately went to change the wine, and Mu Yichen returned to the private room, ”Today, I’ll let you taste something special.”

Everyone could tell that CEO Mu was truly joyful, even willing to share his treasured collection.

”You wouldn’t happen to have been waiting for tonight’s dinner to bring out the good wine, were you? Prepared just for this meal?”

The elder saw through his grandson’s intentions with a glance.

”Exactly as you said, Grandfather!”

Mu Yichen said, unable to restrain a proud look towards his wife, as if to say, I can finally be taken out to meet people with you, and that’s worth celebrating.

Jing Qing pretended not to understand his gaze and struggled to suppress her laughter.

Seeing their loving relationship, Qin Haiming smiled contentedly.

”Can we make the news of your two getting your marriage certificate public now?”

Mu Zihao suddenly asked.

Mu Yichen glanced at Jing Qing again, then said, Is it still necessary to make it public now? It seems everyone already knows she is your daughter-in-law, right?

”Humph! Now you’re relieved.”

Mu Zihao couldn’t help but tease him.

”Yichen’s words are quite right. These past few days, I’ve also received congratulations from some acquaintances. It seems their relationship is known throughout the city,” said Qin Haiming, nodding his head.

No sooner had Qin Haiming finished his words than Mu Yichen’s pride grew even more. Wrapping an arm around Jing Qing’s shoulder, he stared straight at her with a smile.

Jing Qing couldn’t stand his intense gaze, with so many people staring at her, so she raised her hand to cover his eyes and push him away, ”Sit properly!”

Feng Fanghua sighed helplessly, ”Honestly, I have never seen my son act so silly in front of other girls like he does with Jing Qing. I’m starting to doubt if the one who used to scoff at me is my son or if this one here is?”

After Feng Fanghua finished speaking, the senior members of the family looked at Mu Yichen, who then realized his image wasn’t quite right and sat up straight again, still keeping one hand on the back of Jing Qing’s chair though.

”Both are your son!”

Mu Yichen kindly reminded Feng Fanghua.

The family was chatting happily when they heard a knock on the door.

”May I come in?”

Su Zhen approached with a bottle of wine in her hands.

Upon hearing a girl’s voice, several people curiously looked towards the entrance. Mu Yichen and Qin Mu also turned their heads and saw Su Zhen walking in.

”I just went to the back to find someone and heard that this is the wine Mr. Mu requested, so I brought it over. Is it a family dinner? Mayor Qin!”

When Su Zhen saw Qin Haiming, she was taken aback for a moment, then she greeted him courteously.

Qin Haiming also paused when he saw Su Zhen, but then he looked at his own daughter and asked her in a low voice, ”Miss Su, are you working at AM now?”

”Yes! I studied hotel management. My father knew that Mr. Mu owns a super luxurious hotel and asked him to let me come and learn.”

Su Zhen eagerly explained.

After listening, Qin Haiming glanced at Mu Yichen and smiled modestly, ”I see!”

”Let me pour the wine for you! I am also an employee of the hotel.”

Su Zhen said and was about to help pour the wine.

”This is Su Zhen, the daughter of D City’s mayor! Miss Su, please don’t joke with me. Although Mayor Su is currently not here, we cannot allow ourselves to command you!”

Mu Yichen said as he took the bottle of wine from her, maintaining a distance while speaking politely, then he went on to pour wine for his elders himself.

Qin Mu sat by the side, and Su Zhen stood behind Mu Yichen. As Su Zhen looked on, she suddenly asked Qin Haiming and Qin Mu doubtfully, ”Miss Qin wouldn’t be Mayor Qin’s... daughter, would she?”

Su Zhen knew that Qin Haiming had a daughter, but she remembered that the daughter was not married to Mu Yichen.

”This is indeed my eldest daughter, Mumu, do you know Miss Su?”

Qin Haiming affectionately called out to Qin Mu and asked.

”Hmm!”

Qin Mu nodded slightly.

Qin Haiming then also nodded.

Feng Fanghua and Mu Zihao exchanged glances, feeling that the atmosphere was a bit odd.

Su Zhen went to the back, took a cup for herself, and poured herself a little wine, ”Although the hotel has rules about not drinking during working hours, this is my first time meeting the Mu family patriarch, as well as Mu uncle and Mu aunt. As a junior, and entrusted by my father, I must toast to all the elders, not to mention Mayor Qin.”

Su Zhen held her glass, standing very upright in front of everyone, making her courtesies.

Who would want to give her this face?

Especially the Mu family patriarch—he was displeased the moment he heard Su Zhen calling Mr. Mu repeatedly, so he didn’t even touch his wine glass.

”I’ll drink first!”

Su Zhen then said softly and drank her wine first.

Mu Zihao smiled, ”Miss Su can really hold her liquor! However, we are currently discussing the wedding details of your Mr. Mu and his wife-to-be, so could you please leave for now?”

Mu Zihao was very polite in dealing with the mayor’s daughter.

Su Zhen didn’t linger any longer, nodded, placed the wine glass back, and then left.

Throughout the entire time, Qin Mu sat there without moving or showing any inappropriate expressions.

However, Mu Yichen seemed somewhat irritated, tugging at his tie.

Feng Fanghua and Mu Zihao both glanced at Mu Yichen, as if asking: Is this another Jing Qing?

Mu Yichen slightly raised his eyes, saw his parents’ looks, and just helplessly lowered his gaze. He didn’t want to elaborate further.

How could he complain about the directions of the boss?

He didn’t expect that woman to be so annoying, having met her in D City. She seemed sensible, always left shortly after each visit, but since she came to their Rong City, she seemed to become a different person, constantly appearing before him, even before his family.

”Now that you are pregnant, try not to come to the hotel anymore.”

Qin Haiming reminded her with a voice that also expressed his dissatisfaction.

”Hmm!”

Qin Mu glanced at him, understood his meaning, and agreed with a sound.

”Rest assured, I won’t let Mumu face any danger.”

Mu Yichen still had his arm around Qin Mu’s shoulders but suddenly became serious.
