His Beloved Treasure

”Can we go somewhere more private to talk?”

Su Zhen glanced around and then suggested to her.

”Then let’s go to my office!”

Qin Mu was taken aback but quickly agreed, leading her to the office.

After Su Zhen arrived at Qin Mu’s office, she couldn’t help but exclaim, ”It looks really professional!”

”Do you think I’m just for show?”

Qin Mu asked jokingly.

But when Su Zhen turned to look at her, she noticed the sharpness in her eyes and immediately laughed, ”I would never dare! I’m just not familiar with your line of work, that’s all.”

”Sit down, let’s talk!”

Qin Mu made room for her and then sat behind the large desk.

Su Zhen took a seat on the sofa and couldn’t resist picking up a pebble from the coffee table and fondling it, ”It feels so good in the hand.”

”That’s something my daughter picked up from the beach.”

Qin Mu looked up and told her.

”Right, you have a daughter too, I heard she’s over three years old, isn’t she?”

Su Zhen started the conversation again.

Qin Mu felt this was clearly an awkward chat, and it was really pointless for two strangers to talk about this.

”Yes!”

”You’re really blessed to have given Mr. Mu two babies.”

Su Zhen gently placed the pebble back in its place and clasped her hands together as she spoke to her.

”It’s my blessing, just as much as it is Mr. Mu’s!”

Qin Mu corrected.

”There must be no shortage of women who want to have children with Mr. Mu, right?”

”Miss Su, what would you like to discuss? Let’s get straight to the point!”

Qin Mu put her hands together, gave a slight smile, and then became serious about business, her piercing eyes drilling into the depths of Su Zhen’s gaze.

”Last night my father called and asked me to resign. He said that your father had called him, asking me not to disrupt your marriage. I don’t know where you got the idea that I intended to disrupt your marriage, and have you actually registered your marriage?”

Su Zhen asked confidently, questioning her.

Qin Mu stood up from her chair and walked out, standing in front of her desk facing Su Zhen, her sharp eyes fixed on Su Zhen’s, and she smiled faintly.

”Mu Yichen and I have indeed registered our marriage, two years ago.”

Qin Mu said, then lowered her eyes slightly and lightly pinched a small thread on her loose clothing.

”Now, about how I knew you intended to disrupt our marriage?”

Qin Mu raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at her, her fondness for Su Zhen dropping to negative.

”If your attitude when choosing clothes at the store during our first meeting wasn’t clear enough, if your behavior at that evening’s gathering wasn’t indicative enough, then the fact that you posted Mu Yichen’s photo on your social circle should explain it all.”

Qin Mu engaged in an argument with her. She had originally thought they didn’t need to spell things out so clearly, after all, they weren’t close.

Su Zhen’s face finally lost all its smile.

”You know, I’m actually not good at communication, but I really feel your way of interacting with others is too presumptuous. Besides, you really don’t have the right to come here and question me about these things.”

Qin Mu looked down upon the woman sitting on the sofa whose expression had collapsed, her words meant to make Su Zhen look bad.

Feeling as though she had been belittled by Qin Mu, Su Zhen stood up from the sofa and still managed a smile, ”What if I told you that I do like him, but I don’t want to leave? And, with so many women liking Mr. Mu, do you think you can drive them all away?”

”Honestly, although there are many women who admire Mu Yichen, there are indeed not many who are as shameless as Miss Su, so luckily, I can drive them all away!”

Qin Mu held her arms and spoke these words with a bit of a teasing tone.

Su Zhen’s heart pounded violently as if someone had smashed it with a garlic press.

”You...”

Su Zhen’s face flushed with humiliation, turning from red to white.

”Actually, if the hotel just got a pretty female executive, I’d think that was quite nice. But if this woman came to seduce my man, I believe, as a woman, I need to defend my rights.”

Qin Mu continued to speak.

”Was it you who suddenly blocked me on Mu’s WeChat that night? And was it also you who made Mu embarrass me in front of so many people during the meeting that morning by sending him the photo I posted to my Moments?”

Su Zhen thought for a moment and then irritably questioned her.

”No!”

Qin Mu thought about it and shook her head, realizing that this woman had been humiliated and even blocked?

Wow, Mr. Mu from their family is really quite impressive!

”Not you? Then who else could make him embarrass me in front of so many people?”

Su Zhen asked again, frowning deeply.

”Of course, it was him. In Rongcheng, no one but himself can control him.”

Qin Mu answered honestly, yet it made Su Zhen’s face even less able to hold up.

”I didn’t even know he had you on WeChat, how would I know about him blocking you? As for — actually, I don’t need to explain so much to you. I still have some work to do, so Miss Su, if there’s nothing else, you can leave now.”

Having said that, Qin Mu went back behind her desk and sat down.

Yet Su Zhen suddenly laughed, looking somewhat dispirited.

”The battle hasn’t even started, and I have already lost? Qin Mu, I must stay. If I go back now, I will become the laughingstock of others.”

”That’s your problem!”

Qin Mu thought that an adult should be able to handle their own issues.

”I will continue to stay here, but I won’t deliberately approach Mu Yichen anymore. Are you satisfied with this promise?”

You really take the road less traveled, Miss Su!

Qin Mu looked up at her curiously, ”I don’t understand?”

”I am not so desperate as to gamble with my reputation, nor am I like Jing Qing, willing to stake my life for the love of a man. So, from now until the end of the year, I will stay at AM and work my hardest to achieve some results.”

Later, Su Zhen talked a lot more, and then she left.

In the following days, Su Zhen indeed didn’t bother their life anymore. Of course, Mu Yichen was also not visiting AM so frequently now.

That night, after coaxing Huanhuan to sleep, Qin Mu returned to the bedroom with Mu Yichen and lay on the bed. Mu Yichen was massaging Qin Mu’s feet. Qin Mu, while pressing on her temples, looked at Mu Yichen and eventually decided to tell him about Qin Haiming calling Su Zhen’s father. After hearing this, Mu Yichen just looked up at her and didn’t offer any opinion.

Qin Mu nudged his hand with her foot and then asked him, ”Tell me what you’re thinking!”

”What should I think? You call the shots on all my affairs.”

Mu Yichen held her foot and pressed firmly, confessing to her.

”I call the shots on everything? Really?”

Qin Mu actually knew that Mu Yichen was telling the truth, but she just couldn’t resist teasing him.

Mu Yichen was really frustrated recently because of her pregnancy, and he couldn’t handle her flirting with him all the time.

”Mrs. Mu, if you keep on like this, your husband will be gone before the baby is even born.”

Qin Mu...

”What do you mean by that?”

Qin Mu was so frightened that she stammered.

”Where do I start? From the root!”

Mr. Mu frowned childishly as a reminder.
