His Beloved Treasure

Clearly, this brother and sister duo lacked talent in acting.

The meal was, truly, super awkward.

Neither sibling seemed to enjoy their food, but Qin Mu ate quite comfortably.

After watching the ”performance,” Qin Mu put down her utensils, ”I’m done eating! You two continue.”

She glanced at them with a smile and stood up from her seat.

The sudden silence in the dining room left the siblings looking at each other, as if they’d lost the ability to speak.

Not long afterward, Mu Qingxin leaned slightly outward to look, then slowly sat up straight and asked the man across from her, ”Mu Yichen, what are you doing?”

”What did you call me?”

Yichen furrowed his brow, this girl actually dared to call his full name, she really was living on the edge.

”Why do I have to take all the responsibility? That girl didn’t say a single word, do you know how scary that is?”

Mu Qingxin couldn’t help but glare as she continued to argue with him.

”Scary? Who is scared to death?”

Mu Yichen raised his eyes to ask his sister.

Mu Qingxin...

”You—, do you believe I’ll tell Qin Mu it was you who asked me to make this public?”

”You think she doesn’t know?”

Mu Yichen retorted.

Mu Qingxin was petrified again.

She thought to herself, that girl knows everything? How is that possible?

”Aren’t you going to eat? Stop messing around!”

Mu Yichen gave her another look, but just after telling her to eat, he looked at his bowl and lost his appetite, putting down his chopsticks.

Mu Qingxin looked up at him, then lowered her head again. She was very hungry, so once Qin Mu’s sharp gaze left, she planned to eat until she was stuffed.

Mu Yichen looked at Mu Qingxin with a frown.

Suddenly so hungry, this behavior was quite like Qin Mu.

When Qin Mu was angry, she could also eat a lot.

But...

Just now, she hadn’t eaten to bursting, instead, she ate elegantly.

That means...

Mu Yichen had an epiphany and stood up, while Mu Qingxin continued to eat her rice and looked up at him.

”If you dare to call me by name again, don’t bother coming back!”

Mu Yichen completed his threat.

”Psh! I’m scared of you!”

Mu Qingxin mumbled defiantly, continuing to eat.

Qin Mu was sitting on the sofa watching TV when Mu Yichen came over to sit beside her, looking at the screen together.

The leading man and woman were going through a tearful parting, crying snot and tears. Mu Yichen only managed to watch for two seconds before he averted his gaze, finding it disgusting.

Qin Mu’s eyes remained fixed on the TV screen, but her face was expressionless.

Mu Yichen turned to look at her, ”Do you want something to drink?”

”Mm!”

She agreed without taking her eyes off the TV or looking at him.

Mu Yichen was about to go get her a drink but then saw the maid coming out with water and fruit, so he sat back down.

Qin Mu asked him, ”Don’t you think this female lead is particularly disgusting? Always crying at the drop of a hat! And this male lead, a grown man, crying snot and tears, what woman would love such a fragile man?”

Mu Yichen turned to look at her and couldn’t help but chuckle. He lifted his hand and hooked his arm around her neck, pulling her into his embrace, and looked down at her, ”Want me to cry for you?”

His mischievous eyes half-closed as he gazed at the woman in his arms, then he gently bit her earlobe. Qin Mu stirred, and he tightened his hold slightly.

”Ah! Mu Yichen, enough is enough!”

Qin Mu tried to raise her hand to save her ear, but he caught it, wrapping her entirely in his arms.

With her in his arms, Mu Yichen said, ”Not even close! Still got an attitude, huh?”

Qin Mu forcefully slapped his arm, ”If you don’t let go, I’ll really turn against you.”

Mu Yichen did let her go but then cupped her face, squishing her mouth out of shape.

”Turning against me does look quite cute.”

He looked at her, eyes narrowed, smiling gently.

Qin Mu looked at him with wide eyes, grabbing at his wrists to try and push his hands away.

”Kiss me and I’ll forgive you!”

He suddenly whispered his demand.

Qin Mu’s eyes almost popped out, her fingers digging into his sturdy muscles from grabbing his arm to digging her nails in.

The skin slightly exposed at the cuff of his shirt was pinched until it nearly peeled.

Mu Yichen slightly frowned, feeling the pain, and without waiting for her to comply, he directly sealed her mouth with his.

”Bro! Could you two be mindful of other people’s feelings?”

Mu Qingxin had just come out, thinking of how to make Qin Mu happy, but instead saw the two of them on the sofa, kissing as if they couldn’t get enough of each other, and it broke her heart.

After Mu Yichen and Qin Mu parted, Mu Qingxin sat down angrily with her arms crossed and turned her head away to look at them.
