His Beloved Treasure

Qin Mu really just blurted out without thinking.

Mu Yichen’s face turned cold instantly, and even his eyes chilled in a flash.

”Cheating?”

After nearly a minute, his dark eyes stared straight at her beautiful profile, seeking confirmation.

”Yes!”

Qin Mu responded, glancing at him as well.

”Qin Mu, I never thought you were the kind of woman who completely lacks the ability to discern right from wrong,”

Mu Yichen suddenly stood up, barely able to contain himself as he gripped his solid waist, accusing her.

”Are we still eating this meal?”

Qin Mu didn’t want to talk about that topic and didn’t care about his mood; she just wanted to change the subject.

Mu Yichen...

”Do you see me in a state to continue eating? You’re twenty-five years old, not fifteen, Qin Mu!”

After speaking, Mu Yichen walked away from her.

Qin Mu remained seated quietly, only slightly moving back as he passed to ensure he didn’t bump into her.

Her eyes were downcast, and she didn’t have any inclination to stop him.

She felt it was good that he left like that.

Did she really tell the elders that he was cheating?

No wonder today when he called Feng Fanghua, she didn’t even bother picking up the phone.

Normally, Feng Fanghua would have answered his calls immediately.

After leaving the Qin Family’s home, Mu Yichen suddenly stopped. Although his face was still unpleasant, it wasn’t as agitated as before.

Knowing Qin Mu’s character, how could she cause such worry for her parents?

How could she possibly tell her parents such nonsense about him cheating?

Mu Yichen rested his hands on the steering wheel, closed his eyes, and tilted his head back.

If he went back now...

——

It was before dinner when Mu Yichen drove back, holding two bottles of liquor: ”You said you wanted to drink baijiu, I just had some people bring over two bottles a few days ago, so I grabbed them for you.”

Qin Haiming sat at the dining table, stunned by the sight of the alcohol for a few seconds.

Qin Mu watched him in disbelief, but then he suddenly smiled, pulled out a chair, and sat down willingly.

Qin Haiming chuckled a bit, ”You two...”

Mu Yichen gave a wry smile. Since the elder had noticed, there was no point in pretending. He merely helped open the bottle when Qin Haiming was about to pour the drinks.

”It’s okay for young couples to argue, but don’t stay apart for the night. Yichen, you’ll move back home tonight. It’s wrongful for you two to fight and make the elders worry, understand?”

”Yes!”

Mu Yichen agreed.

Qin Mu, however, didn’t expect Mu Yichen to return. She later regretted scaring him but never imagined he would come back, bringing two bottles of liquor with him.

Just now, Qin Haiming mentioned that no gift was better than bringing two bottles of liquor; it was the most worthwhile for him. Qin Mu thought that next year she definitely should bring wine, and as a result...

So, Qin Mu didn’t say anything afterward, just watched the two of them drink so much, especially Mu Yichen who kept drinking whenever Qin Haiming invited him to. Could a son-in-law be any more dutiful?

”Drink less.”

Qin Mu was worried he wouldn’t be able to return.

”What’s there to be afraid of getting drunk for? It’s our own home.”

Qin Haiming said and slowly poured another cup for Mu Yichen.

Mu Yichen noticed Qin Haiming’s intentions but didn’t call him out on it, just kept drinking.

Qin Mu put down her chopsticks and stealthily reached under the table to pinch Mu Yichen’s thigh.

Mu Yichen, having taken a few hits from her today, grit his teeth and glanced back at her.

Qin Mu leaned in towards him a bit, ”Drink less!”

Upon hearing her words, Mu Yichen really didn’t dare to drink the liquor he had raised to his lips and instead said to Qin Haiming, ”Shall we eat some dishes first? They look really good.”

”Let’s eat then.”

Qin Haiming, witnessing their little interaction, played along very well.

Later on, Mu Yichen indeed felt a bit dizzy. Seeing him like that, Qin Haiming said to Qin Mu, ”Help him to go upstairs and lie down for a while. Just go to the room where you stayed the other day.”

Qin Haiming hadn’t expected them to stay the night, it was only then that he asked the housekeeper to tidy up that room for them.

Qin Mu sighed helplessly as she looked at Mu Yichen, ”The person who did wrong is him, yet I still have to take care of him.”

She couldn’t help but complain.

Mu Yichen stood up by himself, ”I don’t need your help, just lead the way.”

Mu Yichen was still able to stand.

Qin Haiming remained seated without moving or speaking further, simply watching their back and forth.

”Then go ahead.”

Qin Mu turned her face slightly.

Mu Yichen walked ahead, with Qin Mu following behind.

Upon reaching the top of the stairs, Mu Yichen suddenly stopped, ”Where to?”

Qin Mu, too lazy to speak, went ahead and pushed the door open for him.
