His Beloved Treasure

When she gets wild, not even eight horses could pull her back.

Qin Mu turned her back to him again, with an air of ”whatever you want, I’m beyond caring,” as she couldn’t really fight him.

Truly, in terms of wealth, she couldn’t compete! In brute force, she couldn’t compete! In temperament, she was no match for him! In talent, perhaps she couldn’t compete either.

Qin Mu remembered how he was good at studies since childhood, truly mastering everything from music, chess, calligraphy, to painting.

And herself?

Besides making clothes, she knew nothing.

”He wants to terminate the contract with you? Is it confirmed?”

Mu Yichen couldn’t help but get excited, pressing his chin on her shoulder as he asked her.

Qin Mu heard the excitement in his voice, and yes, also in his breath, there was excitement.

”What do you think? Do I have any reason to lie to you?”

Qin Mu didn’t look at him, just sniffed, then pressed her aching dry eyes with the palms of both hands.

”Reluctant? So you cried?”

Mu Yichen asked her quietly again, but his attitude had obviously changed by 180 degrees from before.

Qin Mu got even angrier, feeling waves of nausea in her stomach.

Neither of them was wearing clothes, talking like this for the first time in bed.

”Yes!”

She lied through gritted teeth in anger.

Mu Yichen suddenly increased the strength he was using to squeeze her chest, causing Qin Mu to frown in pain.

”Mu Yichen, just give me a break! There’s no need to bully me, scare me, torture me like this every day.”

Qin Mu angrily grabbed his hands with both of hers, then turned to look at him, roaring at him with fury.

Mu Yichen distanced himself slightly, looking at her with an ambiguous gaze.

”After all the trouble I went through to get you, you think I’d just give you a break? That would just make things worse for me, wouldn’t it?”

”So, you married me just to torment me? You’re finally admitting it, aren’t you? You never really loved me. All those sweet words were just to make me loyally follow you. You only wanted to torment me because I hated you since I was little.”

Qin Mu’s chin trembled with excitement, and as she said this, she burst into tears, yet her blurred gaze was full of stubbornness.

”I never said that!”

Mu Yichen could hardly suppress a laugh. Seeing her face washed with tears yet still so stubborn, he suddenly felt a twinge of heartache.

Actually, he did not understand how their conversation had come to this. Clearly, he just wanted to ensure she didn’t think of another man, he just wanted to make her loyally stay by his side and not have her head filled with nonsense.

”But that’s what you did! You hit Li Yu just to force him to terminate the contract with JY! Last night in the bathroom, you acted that way just to scare me, to make me follow your lead. You married me merely to tame me, didn’t you? You never truly loved me!”

Qin Mu continued to confront him with teary eyes.

”Mrs. Mu, if you put it that way...”

”Shut up, what kind of Mrs. Mu am I? I don’t even have the most basic dignity!”

Qin Mu wouldn’t let him finish, she forcefully pushed against his chest with both hands: ”Let me go, you’re disgusting, get off me!”

”Are you done with your tantrum? This is my home, my bed!”

Mu Yichen saw her wanting to escape, to retreat, immediately pinned her arms down, pulling her in front of him.

With no other choice, he turned and pinned her beneath him: ”Qin Mu, I’m your husband!”

She suddenly calmed down, yet involuntarily raised her hand.

With a ”slap,” it wasn’t heavy, yet felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.

In that moment, her fingertips struck his face, and when she was caught in terror, unable to believe she had hit him, Mu Yichen was even more incensed.

”You hit me?”

Mu Yichen frowned, unbelievingly looking at her, questioning her.

Mu Yichen grasped Qin Mu’s shoulder, almost crushing it.

A tear rolled from the corner of Qin Mu’s eye, and after that, she forgot the pain, her mind was empty, her heart numbed.

”I wasn’t throwing a fit!”

Her voice was barely audible! She was fearful! She was tense! Yet she still resisted!

Suddenly she realized, they were finished!

——

She was not his appendage! Not!

This morning, they pretended to have breakfast together with the elders, but the atmosphere was very strange, even the little siblings couldn’t help but secretly observe them.

After breakfast, Qin Mu went to take Huanhuan to school, and Feng Fanghua stood at the door watching Mu Yichen who was about to leave and asked: ”What happened?”
