His Beloved Treasure

Qin Haiming lowered his head and smiled: ”Not having an appetite is no big deal. I’m not busy lately, just resting at home, sitting all day. How can I feel hungry?”

”Then get up and move around. If not, how about I buy some exercise equipment for the house?”

Qin Mu wanted to get him a gym membership, but thought it might be inconvenient for him, so she suggested this instead.

Qin Haiming looked at her intently. Over time, her concern for him had grown, and Qin Haiming noticed and kept it in his heart.

She had probably let go of past matters, but Qin Haiming found it hard to calm his heart.

”Sit here by me!”

Qin Haiming pressed his hand against the sofa next to him and said to her.

Qin Mu was startled, and her expression became somewhat awkward.

But she still put down her bag and, pretending to be casual, sat beside him: ”What’s up? Need reading glasses now?”

Qin Haiming chuckled again after hearing this and raised his hand to hold hers.

Qin Mu was instantly at a loss for words, her eyes inexplicably moist.

”How many years has it been since daddy held your hand, huh?”

Qin Haiming’s eyes were just as moist.

They seemed to have gone through many cycles to finally be together calmly like this.

For a long time, he was ashamed to bring up the word ’dad,’ Qin Mu wouldn’t call him that, and he wouldn’t address himself as daddy. But today, she returned as a regular daughter caring for her father and Qin Haiming couldn’t help it.

Qin Mu felt her heart tremble, inexplicably unable to lift her head, she buried her face into her chest.

Another hand lay on her leg, clenched tightly.

The word ’dad’ was something she had longed for but felt unattainable.

She hadn’t forgotten the image of a father, she just couldn’t believe this day had come.

”I know, I don’t have the right to ask you to call me dad again. They say calling me leader is also a term of endearment, don’t you think?”

Qin Haiming slightly lifted his eyes, trying to smile at her, the loving gaze in his eyes was unmistakable.

Qin Mu tried hard to muster some expression, but with her head lowered she couldn’t even glance at him.

Qin Mu even felt her breathing becoming shallow.

Although this living room isn’t as big as the Mu Family’s, it’s still spacious. All Qin Mu wanted was to sink into the dust, wishing she hadn’t come at all.

”Can you help me check if the herbal medicine in the kitchen is ready?”

Seeing her discomfort, Qin Haiming released her hand.

”Okay!”

Qin Mu agreed softly and got up, heading to the kitchen with her head down.

Watching her tiny back, Qin Haiming couldn’t help but twitch his lips, his eyes filled with affection.

Qin Haiming thought that gradually, they could surely become like a father and daughter who have been close for many years. She’d start finding him annoying, and he could call to question why she hadn’t visited home in so long.

Qin Mu was slow-paced, not quick to enter a certain scenario with others, but he found this quite well, her mother was the same, and so was he!

Qin Haiming thought of this, grasping the remote control again, as he looked toward the TV, the warmness in his eyes slowly fading!

Qin Mu went to the kitchen, where the aunt quietly spoke a few words to her, then asked: ”Can you come by every day recently, Miss?”

”Hmm!”

Qin Mu’s voice was so soft, it seemed to resonate within her.

But the aunt heard it anyway, couldn’t help but smile a little, feeling that the bond between father and daughter reaching this point wasn’t easy.

Qin Mu returned to the living room holding a bowl of herbal medicine, presented it directly in front of him: ”Herbal medicine is bitter!”

Qin Haiming said nothing, just took it after casting her a glance.

Herbal medicine usually is bitter, but taking it from her hand made it different.

Qin Haiming found today’s herbal medicine quite alright.

Qin Mu sat for a while before finally mentioning: ”Bian Jingwen stayed in Rongcheng!”

Qin Haiming downed the whole bowl of medicine, even after Qin Mu said this, he didn’t pause.

Only after finishing did he look at Qin Mu: ”You’re saying that young woman is here...”

”She went to W a few days ago, you know that design company, don’t you?”

Qin Haiming nodded a little.

Qin Mu sighed lightly: ”I have a premonition that she’s probably here for someone.”

Qin Haiming furrowed his brows too: ”You think she’s here for you or me?”

”Hmm, precisely, I feel she’s come for me, but I can’t figure it out, I don’t know her, could it be because of Mingzhu’s mother?”
