His Beloved Treasure

Helian Hao spoke up and then took hold of Qin Mu’s hand, the two of them nestled together on the couch, ”I never thought I’d be the first to have a wedding.”

Helian Hao’s voice was soft, as if tinged with a hint of loss.

”Yeah! Truly unexpected! But it wasn’t easy for the two of you to finally come together, congratulations!”

Qin Mu raised a hand and wrapped it around her shoulder.

”Lately, I’ve had Jing Feng to take care of everything! Ever since becoming pregnant, my body’s been feeling worse every day; I don’t know how you made it this far!”

The more Helian Hao spoke, the sadder she became. Now all she did aside from eating was sleeping, not even setting foot in the operating room, and she went to work punctually and left right on time, never staying in the hospital a minute longer.

”Oh, by the way! Do you remember that female colleague who made the love-filled meal for Jing Feng that I mentioned a few days ago?”

Helian Hao suddenly turned her head and asked.

”Mhm!”

Qin Mu thought for a moment, recalling that Helian Hao had mentioned something like that.

”She resigned!”

Helian Hao said.

The room fell silent for a long while, when suddenly Qin Mu turned her head to look at Helian Hao.

Suppressing her laughter, Helian Hao said, ”Jing Feng didn’t go into details, but that girl came to the hospital to find me.”

”She actually went to the hospital to see you?”

Qin Mu asked.

”Mhm! But she came to offer her well wishes and left after that!”

Helian Hao explained to Qin Mu, recalling the events with a bit of shock herself.

The girl had been very sensible; after Jing Feng had made his stance clear, she chose to resign to avoid awkwardness, and she even apologized to her.

Qin Mu found it scarcely credible — were there still girls who knew when to retreat?

After all, what kind of people had she encountered? They were either too proud, silently enduring, or utterly self-righteous.

Then, the little guy in Qin Mu’s belly suddenly moved. Qin Mu raised her hand and gently caressed her belly, while Helian Hao, looking down, couldn’t help but ask, ”Did he kick you?”

”For an obstetrician, you’re way too curious, aren’t you?”

”I’ve never felt it by lying on someone’s belly before. Can I listen to it, please? Before Mu Yichen finds out.”

Qin Mu couldn’t help but laugh, ”Would he be that petty?”

Helian Hao just smiled without arguing back, thinking to herself, what do you know?

Helian Hao lay on her belly quietly feeling the movement. Before long, the little one started to stir inside again. Although the movement wasn’t significant, lying on her belly made it detectable.

”A few days ago, my belly felt a bit uncomfortable, and Jing Feng thought it was the fetus moving! He really should feel what real fetal movement is like.”

Helian Hao muttered while lying on her belly and feeling the movements.

”Well! Although I’m pretty sure Mu Yichen wouldn’t mind you lying on my belly, Jing Feng would probably kick.”

Qin Mu whispered softly.

Helian Hao chuckled softly, as if afraid of startling the little one inside Qin Mu’s belly.

The room was lit with spotlights but the overhead lights were off, the two women sat on the plush leather couch chatting aimlessly, as time ticked away slowly.

When they fell asleep, they couldn’t tell, but when they woke up it was already the middle of the night, lying on the bed in the familiar guest room upstairs.

Qin Mu felt the surroundings as soon as she opened her eyes.

And Mu Yichen, had just returned from outside.

Qin Mu struggled to sit up in bed and then asked the man who came in, ”When did we come up here?”

”You fell asleep with Helian Hao in the other private room around nine-thirty, and I carried you over,”

He then went back down and continued to drink a few more.

”What about Xiaohao?”

”She’s in another guest room, don’t worry about her, Jing Feng has already joined her!”

Mu Yichen walked over, sat down, and casually leaned in for a kiss as he started to undress.

Qin Mu immediately refused when she smelled the alcohol on his breath.

Mu Yichen arrogantly wrapped his hand around the back of her head, forcing her into his kiss.

”Ugh! That smells terrible!”

Mu Yichen let go of her, ”Then I’ll go freshen up. Do you want me to order you something to drink?”

He touched her face as he got up, his besotted eyes lingering on her.

”I’ll order it myself, just go take your shower!”

Qin Mu urged him and then looked askance at him before finding her phone.

”Good idea!”

Mu Yichen went to the bathroom!

After finding her phone, Qin Mu wanted to check for messages from friends first but felt a bit hungry, so she called room service to order some food.

When she unlocked her phone and saw the time, it was already midnight!

How much can these people drink?

To have been drinking until this late.

Qin Mu sighed with a twinge of sympathy, then accessed WeChat.

She thought about sending a message to Helian Hao but remembering what Mu Yichen said, decided not to.

When she saw a message from Mu Qingxin, she paused because it wasn’t marked as unread, which meant it wasn’t sent just now.

The time was a little after nine-forty.

”So you’re disgusted with me, huh? Humph! I’m being generous today and won’t hold it against you, but if you don’t come back to sleep tomorrow, I’ll be really angry!”

”Qin Mu, check your Moments!”

Two messages, nothing more.

Qin Mu opened her Moments and then...

Boom!

Moments were filled with reposts of a major piece of news.
