His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 1223: Chapter 341: If You Let Me Stay the Night, I’ll Forgive You (Part 5)

”About an hour ago!”

Mu Yichen said.

Qin Mu then realized that he had returned after having lunch with those people. She couldn’t help but glance at him again, then thought of Wu Jiaojiao, and said to him, ”Wu Jiaojiao went looking for you in your room!”

”Oh? She came to the house?”

Mu Yichen feigned ignorance.

”The house? I’m talking about the hotel!”

Qin Mu’s eyes flickered, sharp and perceptive.

”Oh! Then did you two talk?”

Mu Yichen looked at her with curiosity, but his voice was actually quite calm. However, Qin Mu felt a bit guilty at this moment, considering that she had said too much back then.

”We did chat a bit!”

Qin Mu instinctively scratched her head, awkwardly lowering her gaze.

Mu Yichen followed her gaze, but he saw something different, something that captivated him beyond measure, one of his favorite features, and he just wanted to bury himself in it now.

”What did you talk about? Did it have anything to do with me?”

Mu Yichen asked her, while thinking that Qin Mu had unconsciously let her guard down around him. Her fine figure wasn’t entirely revealed to him, but even so, it was truly beautiful.

His hand moved impulsively up her leg — slender, long, and soft, making him want to continue exploring.

”Hmm! Do you want to hear what I said to her? It certainly wasn’t anything nice! I probably offended her, so if you want to keep pretending to be a nice guy to her, you have to explain it yourself.”

Qin Mu looked up, speaking to the ceiling, trying to act more naturally and sincerely, yet also with a touch of emotion, which she expressed.

Mu Yichen lay there quietly gazing at her leg, studying it intently.

Today, her loose top was passable, but the shorts were a bit too tight, wrapped too tightly around the base of her thighs.

Qin Mu realized the room was too quiet, as if he hadn’t spoken for a while, then she looked down...

”Hey! Mu Yichen, what are you looking at?”

Qin Mu instinctively pulled the blanket over herself.

Mu Yichen immediately furrowed his brow, as if he couldn’t see anything before, and now he wasn’t allowed to look.

”Get out!”

Qin Mu shouted at him angrily.

Mu Yichen looked at her, and seeing that she was genuinely angry, he started to walk out.

Qin Mu was so upset she was nearly in tears, so Mu Yichen got up and asked, ”What are you going to do this afternoon?”

”Do you still need to ask me what to do?”

Qin Mu asked him unhappily.

”I’m asking what you want to do!”

Mu Yichen seemed a bit helpless, really not wanting to see her angry anymore.

”Sleep!”

Qin Mu thought for a moment, unable to think of anything to do, feeling bored and flustered. Her face flushed red, and she buried herself under the blanket, lying back down.

If she’s going to sleep, why does she ask him to leave? Can’t they just sleep together?

”Can I ask when I’ll be allowed back to sleep in our bed?”

Mu Yichen walked to the door and turned his head, tapping lightly on the doorframe before asking this shame-filled question with great difficulty.

But the person under the blanket seemed intent on suffocating herself, unwilling to speak to him.

Mu Yichen had no choice but to leave, afraid she might really suffocate herself.

Qin Mu only threw off the blanket after hearing the door close, nearly suffocating herself.

He still wants to come back to their bed to sleep?

This is her bed, okay?

She felt it might be too easy to let him sleep in the bed like that, but...

Qin Mu’s eyes involuntarily reddened, really had enough, enough of being alone.

No longer able to sleep, she went downstairs, planning to sneak around quietly. If she saw Mr. Mu anywhere, she’d hide where he wasn’t.

Unexpectedly, just as she was sneaking downstairs, grandpa called her over: ”Hey girl, come play chess with me!”

Qin Mu...

The old man didn’t even look up, and the living room was so big, with such a distance between the stairs and the sofa, but...

Even though he’s old, grandpa is still sharp in all aspects.

”Alright!”

Qin Mu had no choice but to obediently go over to sit with the old man.

Mu Yichen picked up the black pieces, and once Qin Mu sat down, he glanced at her: ”Seems like we haven’t played chess together before.”

Qin Mu didn’t even lift her eyelids, only urged him: ”Isn’t it your turn to move?”

”How about a game with me later?”

Mu Yichen said.

Qin Mu’s heart thumped loudly, as if reminding her of something, but she didn’t dare to agree with him for a long time.

”If you win, I’ll grant you a wish!”

”Then what if the girl loses?”

The old man helped his granddaughter-in-law ask.

”Then your granddaughter-in-law will grant me a wish.”

”Oh? That sounds quite fair. Why not base it on this game? Two against one!”

The old man cunningly negotiated with him, then looked at Qin Mu.

But Qin Mu always felt it was a trap.

”Alright!”

Mu Yichen finished speaking and lowered his head to make a move.

”Wait! I refuse!”

Qin Mu immediately rejected their proposal just a few seconds later.

The two men were quite upset with her; this girl simply wouldn’t fall into the trap they set.

”Give grandpa some face!”

”No way!”

Qin Mu muttered and then looked at Mu Yichen: ”Lend me your car keys for a bit.”

”Hm? Why?”

”I’m going out!”

With a stubborn glance, Qin Mu looked at him, a bit anxious as he didn’t seem willing to give them to her.

”You can go out, but I’ll take you! The car is new and hard to drive!”

Mu Yichen gave a full reason.

”Then I’ll take a cab!”

”Qin Mu!”

Just as Qin Mu stood up to leave, Mu Yichen put down the chess piece, calling her half-heartedly.

The old man suddenly felt he didn’t fit staying here, but getting up to leave now seemed too sudden.

”Why don’t you two go upstairs to talk? The entire second floor is yours.”

The old man kindly suggested to his grandson.

Qin Mu...

”Grandpa!”

”That’s a good idea!”

Just as Qin Mu was angry with her grandpa, Mu Yichen threw down the pieces in his hand and stood up.

Mu Yichen’s eyes seemed to say that resistance is futile, and Qin Mu reflexively ran towards the outside of the sofa.

”Mumu, it’s too late, don’t go out. We’ll check my blood pressure after dinner.”

The old man quickly said when he saw her about to run.

With no other choice, Qin Mu had to run upstairs.

”The keys are in the room where your mom stays.”

The old man quietly reminded his grandson.

”Thanks!”

Mu Yichen said seriously, then casually went upstairs.

Qin Mu shut the door immediately after returning to the room, just in case he had the key. Nervously, she wanted to drag the nearby sofa to block him.

But...

She barely dragged the sofa halfway before sweating, just as the door was already opened by someone.

With her butt sticking out while dragging the sofa, Qin Mu looked back at the doorway.

Mu Yichen frowned at her: ”What are you doing?”

Qin Mu...

”Can’t you see? I’m blocking you!”

Qin Mu was angry, exhausted, and ended up forgetting how much she was wasting time, so she gave up.

She stood up, hands on her waist, panting and looking at him without much respect: ”Just say what you have to. Say everything at once.”

”I do have something! However, I really didn’t know you hated me so much right now.”

Mu Yichen glanced at the sofa she had dragged, his brows furrowing with displeasure.

”So what?”

Qin Mu asked him, her heart pounding wildly.

”If you let me stay in this room overnight, I’ll forgive you!”

Mu Yichen’s dark eyes gazed at her, formally reminding her.
