His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 1317: Chapter 265: Jiang Zhiyuan’s Proposal

”Before you say those three words to me, for now, I’ll keep them in my heart for you, okay?”

Mu Yichen looked at her, his tone slightly serious, expressing his thoughts to her in a deep voice.

——

That evening, it seemed like something was hindering the progress of their entanglement.

——

On the weekend, Qin Mu went to the Qin Family to have lunch with Qin Haiming. Noticing her troubled look, but hearing that she was getting along well with Mu Yichen lately, he asked her: ”Are you facing any difficulties at work?”

”No!”

Qin Mu lifted her eyes and shook her head, her voice faint as if lacking the strength to refute.

”Then what’s going on?”

Qin Haiming unconsciously furrowed his brows, worried that the young couple might have had an argument early in the morning.

”Actually, it’s nothing much, let’s forget it! Better not talk about me, has Qin Mingzhu called recently?”

Qin Mu held a teacup in her hands, sitting with him in the living room waiting for lunch.

”She called last night, don’t you two keep in touch? You young folks like chatting over apps like WeChat, don’t you?”

Qin Haiming thought for a bit and asked her.

Qin Mu let out a light laugh: ”It’s funny, we actually rarely chat, and she doesn’t really post on her social media either.”

Qin Mu and Qin Mingzhu both have each other’s WeChat, but they rarely chat, and neither of them likes posting on social media. It’s hard for Qin Mu to imagine, someone as outgoing as Qin Mingzhu, doesn’t really like posting.

”She’s slowly building her own circle in Beijing; maybe she doesn’t miss us that much anymore.”

Qin Haiming spoke with a touch of melancholy, after all, she’s his own daughter.

”She might not miss me, but she’ll definitely miss you a lot.”

Qin Mu smiled, comforting him.

”Boss, shall we start the meal now?”

The housekeeper came out and asked him.

”If it’s ready, let’s eat! Right?”

Qin Haiming finished speaking and turned to look at Qin Mu, waiting for her approval.

”Sure! It’s been a while since I’ve had a meal cooked by you,” Qin Mu agreed, and then accompanied him as they walked towards the kitchen.

When she left the Qin Family, Qin Haiming said to her, ”Next time, bring those two little ones with you, and make sure to get along well with Mu Yichen. After all, you’re living with his parents now, don’t be too headstrong.”

”Okay! Got it, it’s so hot, hurry back inside!”

Qin Mu nodded, urging him to go back.

”I’ll watch you until you get in the car.”

Qin Haiming stood there, raising his hand slightly, nodding for her to leave first.

Qin Mu quickly got into the car; in this scorching heat, it’s not good for anyone to get overheated.

Even after she got into the car, Qin Haiming was still by her car window, so Qin Mu rolled down the window: ”Anything else?”

”I heard the other day there was a car accident near your studio?”

”Oh, someone wanted to cause trouble for me, but I was in the city center at the time, so nothing happened. That person got injured, though. I’ll call you later, hurry inside!”

Qin Mu looked at the sweat on his forehead, worried he couldn’t bear the intense weather outside.

”Then call me later,” Qin Haiming reminded her before she left. It was only after she nodded and departed that he turned around and slowly walked back inside, wearing a half-sleeved shirt she brought him last time.

After leaving the Qin Family, Qin Mu returned to the apartment, made herself a cup of coffee, and sat on the sofa in the living room, turning on the TV, enjoying her solo time comfortably.

When she almost finished the cup of coffee, she called Qin Haiming and explained the entire occurrence of the incident to him. After hanging up, she lay on the sofa holding her cup, placing it gently on her abdomen, letting the TV sound enter her ears. She hardly listened, staring vacantly at the ceiling, her hands gently stroking the coffee cup.

Time slowly passed, the coffee cup was placed on the table, she curled up on the sofa and gradually fell asleep.

Feeling cold at times, she instinctively curled her legs and unconsciously hugged herself lightly.

The sound from the TV in the room seemed to gradually disappear, little by little, and she couldn’t hear it any longer.

Outside, from a sunny day of thirty-nine degrees, the weather suddenly turned gloomy; it seemed like a tornado started, covering the whole city with a layer of yellow veil.

The light in the room slowly dimmed.

She didn’t know how much time had passed when she gradually heard the TV sound again, as if a drama was on.
