His Beloved Treasure

Qin Mu’s eyes were lowered, yet she could clearly see the man on the sofa stiffen.

Of course, Jiang Zhiyuan still remembered that last night Mu Yichen had warned him not to get too close to Qin Mu. If Qin Mu helped him cancel the bet today, Mu Yichen would definitely cause a scene to torture him.

Jiang Zhiyuan thought for a moment: ”Forget it, forget it! But you still have to help me pursue An Nan, and also, can you send me messages secretly? Don’t let Yichen see them, that guy has troubled me several times already.”

”But if I sneak around, he’ll think I’m doing something shameful. He’s always jealous!”

At that moment, Qin Mu was helpless like a child, looking down at the initial sketch in her hand.

”Then you can pick times when he’s not around!”

”This problem doesn’t seem to lie with me, but with you!”

It’s you who always messages me either in the morning, at night, or midday, basically when Mu Yichen is around her.

Qin Mu really wanted to complain about him if it weren’t for him looking particularly unwell today.

”But haven’t you caught up to An Nan yet? Don’t you two always go out?”

”Go out? I feel like it’s just dinner at most. After eating, we each go home, she always drives herself, and I never even get the chance to take her home. Plus, there’s always that damn President Wang or whatever constantly haunting her.”

Jiang Zhiyuan’s brows furrowed even more as he spoke about An Nan.

”But haven’t you been to her place?”

Qin Mu asked curiously.

”Just once or twice! And every time, it’s only courteous and polite——do you understand?”

Jiang Zhiyuan didn’t quite know how to explain to Qin Mu. In his mind, Qin Mu was still a bit too young, and some issues weren’t suitable for discussing together, especially since he feared saying too much might get him a beating from Mu Yichen.

Qin Mu’s clear eyes looked at him, indeed appearing somewhat simple.

”My love tutor is Brother Yichen!”

Qin Mu thought for a moment and told him modestly.

Jiang Zhiyuan...

”So, are the things you taught me Mu Yichen’s tricks for pursuing you?”

Jiang Zhiyuan looked at her with an indescribable expression, his eyebrows nearly furrowing.

”Of course not! He never tried to pursue me.”

Qin Mu had to admit that fact; Mu always seemed different from others when it came to pursuing girls.

Mu clearly treated her as his possession since they were young, monitoring her like the head of the household, forbidding her from getting too close to any boys.

Actually, she roughly understood his intentions when she was in her teens, even though Mu always acted arrogant, never willing to say much to her.

Looking back, if he had told her he liked her when she was fifteen, she would have gladly waited to be his wife. It wouldn’t have led to the six years later when she was terrified of him leaving, her heart always waiting for him to come find her, yet she never dared to ask if he liked her, even when they had a relationship that Christmas.

Sigh!

Recalling the past, Qin Mu felt Mu was such a letdown.

If he pursued her like Jiang Zhiyuan pursued An Nan, her defenses would’ve crumbled in just a few days.

”He never pursued you...”

Jiang Zhiyuan’s mouth and eyes twitched, unable to comprehend how their close friends all knew about Mu Family’s eldest son guarding a little Qingmei for years without change, and even his return to the country wasn’t just because of a Jing Family girl by his side. Those who supported Mu Yichen and Jing Qing did so for their matching backgrounds, not their feelings. Qin Mu was believed by those who believed in love to be the best match for Mu Yichen.

”Since he was little, he considered me his! And that’s how he acted!”

Qin Mu spoke with some sadness, lamenting that Mu wasn’t a romantic, overbearingly loving, not leaving her room to breathe.

Jiang Zhiyuan heard Qin Mu’s seemingly modest words, yet it was deeply wounded.

In the end, he couldn’t resist laughing and looking at Qin Mu: ”Then where did you learn what you taught me?”

”I’m a woman, of course, I know what women want.”

Qin Mu could only be truthful.

Jiang Zhiyuan realized the crucial point; indeed, how could a woman not know what kind of courtship a woman desires?

”Then give me a few more strategies on how to make that man disappear from her side.”
