His Beloved Treasure

Mu Yichen couldn’t help but laugh and said to him, ”Actually, I just had a fight with my wife!”

The old man was taken aback, but quickly said to him, ”Then hurry home! She ate my roasted sweet potato, even the biggest temper can be cooled!”

Mu Yichen believed him, so he brought the roasted sweet potato home.

Now, he had only one thought, since she enjoyed the roasted sweet potato so much, he should just buy it for her again in the future.

”Did you reply to that guy’s WeChat?”

”No!”

Qin Mu thought, why should I tell you? You were already angry and stormed out of the house. Do I still need to tell you what I replied to someone on WeChat?

The next morning, Feng Fanghua woke up first, and as soon as Qin Mu came downstairs, Feng Fanghua called her into the sofa: ”Did you two argue again late last night?”

”No, no!”

Qin Mu got nervous and stuttered a bit.

”No? Then why are you so nervous?”

”No, my throat is a bit hoarse!”

Qin Mu lowered her head, speaking as she raised her hand to rub her throat.

”So if you didn’t fight, where did he go last night?”

Qin Mu had no choice but to answer truthfully.

”Roasted sweet potato? Did he go out in the middle of the night to buy you roasted sweet potato? In the cold winter?”

”Yes!”

”How did it taste?”

Qin Mu couldn’t resist raising her eyes and gently looked at her mother-in-law.

”If it tasted good, let’s have him go buy some more tonight, and we’ll all eat together!”

Qin Mu...

”Okay!”

It tasted good! It’s fine to go buy more tonight!

So, today Mr. Mu has a new task, which is to help everyone buy roasted sweet potatoes. But he’s a grown man and he has to go buy roasted sweet potatoes after work.

After arriving at work in the morning, Qiao Yi went to Mu Yichen’s office: ”Give my wife maternity leave!”

Mu Yichen lifted his eyes, saw him standing there seriously, as if not granting the maternity leave would be unacceptable.

”Doesn’t the company have clear regulations on maternity leave? It will be granted naturally when the time comes!”

Mu Yichen said casually, leaning back in his chair, playing with a pen Qin Mu had given him.

”Mu Yichen, we’re brothers, a brother’s wife is obviously different from others, let her have it now!”

”You know Xi Meng’s pregnancy was originally unexpected, if she suddenly resigns or requests maternity leave, it will affect my upcoming work.”

”Isn’t there someone else? If you’re not assured, I’ll replace her.”

Qiao Yi said, looking at Xi Meng who has been feeling pretty sick these days, and couldn’t help but feel worried.

”Then suit yourself!”

Mu Yichen is quite lenient toward pregnant women. After all, someone in his own family has been pregnant.

”Thanks a lot! A true good brother!”

Qiao Yi immediately smiled excitedly.

”I didn’t plan to start my maternity leave now!”

Xi Meng suddenly pushed the door open, carrying documents to Mu Yichen’s desk and placed them down, then very formally said to Mu Yichen, ”I decided to follow the company’s rules for maternity leave, please boss, do not arbitrarily approve maternity leave.”

Mu Yichen glanced at Xi Meng, then slightly tilted his head to look at the man behind Xi Meng.

”What are you up to? You’re feeling unwell all the time now and still want to work? Our family doesn’t lack that little money, you...”

”This has nothing to do with money, it’s just that if I don’t work, what do I do at home except for gaining weight.”

Xi Meng raised her eyes to confront the man who was holding her.

Qiao Yi...

Mu Yichen slightly lowered his gaze, he had long guessed Xi Meng wouldn’t agree to start her leave so early, what kind of person is Xi Meng? Qiao Yi, as her husband, still doesn’t know well enough.

”But you’re uncomfortable now, the doctor said you’d better rest at home.”

”I’m not exhausted here! Since the other day, the boss has shared most of my work with the assistant, now I just sit there and look at documents.”

Xi Meng had to explain to him.

”Really?” Qiao Yi turned his eyes toward Mu Yichen.

Mu Yichen smiled lightly without speaking, thinking you brats really don’t trust your brother enough, it seems I’ve been too kind.

”Otherwise, should I arrange some work for Secretary Xi? Actually, pregnant women sitting all day is really bad for the fetus.”

As someone experienced, Mr. Mu once again showcased his specialty.

”I think it’s possible!”

”No way!”

As Xi Meng agreed, Qiao Yi had already refused.

Mu Yichen slightly raised an eyebrow: ”Alright! There’s a meeting later, if you two have no more issues with this matter, hurry up and get back to work, okay?”

”Alright!”

Xi Meng immediately walked out.

However, Qiao Yi didn’t leave, he looked at Xi Meng walking away then ran to the front of his desk, placed his hands on the edge of his desk, suddenly smiled: ”Yichen, take good care of her, we’re all family!”

”Yes! We’re all family, so you’d better do a good job for me!”
