His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 1610: Chapter 450: Scratches (3)

”Oh!”

Jing Feng stood at the window, a bit puzzled, and responded, taking a deep breath. Now he was even more dumbfounded.

After Mu Yichen hung up the phone, he mumbled to Qiao Yi, ”He asked if I had a fight with Qin Mu!”

”Huh! What’s gotten into him? Why ask such a strange question?”

Qiao Yi didn’t know about what happened yesterday morning, so he assumed Jing Feng must be upset.

”Maybe he’s having a cold war with Helian Hao.”

That was the only idea Mu Yichen had.

Qiao Yi chuckled mischievously, ”It seems like their quarrel has gone on for quite a while this time.”

”Yeah!”

Mu Yichen agreed, then took a gentle sip of his wine.

”Think about it, a few years ago, we were all a bunch of bachelors, but ever since you got married, everyone seems afraid of not finding a wife, rushing to get married.”

Qiao Yi swirled his wine but didn’t drink it, placing it back on the table, and continued chatting with him.

”What does my marriage have to do with you guys? Why are you all so excited?”

Mu Yichen asked with a light chuckle.

”Come to think of it, it really shouldn’t matter. But seeing how happy you are after marriage, the brothers couldn’t sit still.”

Qiao Yi looked at him, as if looking at everything that had happened over the years with Qin Mu, with a long, understanding smile.

Mu Yichen leaned back in his chair, ”Qin Mu changed a lot after returning to the country, especially after we had Mu Chengyang.”

Mu Yichen gazed out the window. He had left Xi Meng with Qiao Yi to come to this quiet restaurant for a meal. The environment was rather serene.

Outside the window was a vast bamboo grove, giving one the urge to dive in and clarify each stalk of bamboo.

”So, Qin Mu’s change might have nothing to do with you, just because of your son.”

Qiao Yi said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Mu Yichen lifted his eyes and let out a sniff of laughter.

”Are you jealous?”

Mu Yichen asked.

Qiao Yi took a sip of wine, almost spitting it out, ”What do I have to be jealous of?”

”Oh? You’re not jealous? I’m the happiest person now!”

Mu Yichen said proudly as he declared himself the happiest person.

”How many years have you been married now? We’re all waiting for your seven-year itch, not starting from when you got together but from after marriage. Once you get through the seven-year itch, then we might consider feeling envious.”

Qiao Yi mentioned, as several men had nothing better to do than drink together and talk about such trivial matters.

It was the first time Mu Yichen realized his good friends were secretly betting on his and Qin Mu’s relationship, but he didn’t take offense; after all, he would also bet with Qin Mu on others.

”The seven-year itch is terrifying, you should be careful!”

Qiao Yi added.

”Yeah! The seven-year itch is terrifying, you should be careful too!”

Mu Yichen nodded, seriously agreeing.

However, Mu Yichen didn’t really believe that he and Qin Mu would have any problems in their seventh year, after all, they had already experienced more than one seven years together.

People say marriage is different before and after, their difference is just that they love each other more than before and have the courage to express it.

In the afternoon, Mu Yichen sent a message to Qin Mu, ”I’m coming to pick you up!”

Qin Mu didn’t see it immediately, being so absorbed in her drawing.

Then Mu Yichen called her, and several seconds had passed when Qin Mu noticed the ringing, but as soon as she saw it was him calling, she answered immediately.

”What are you doing? Why didn’t you reply to my message?”

Mu Yichen asked softly, on his way downstairs to a meeting.

”I was drawing. Did you send a message? I didn’t hear it just now.”

”So focused?”

Mu Yichen asked.

”Yeah! But you sound busy too!”

Just then, a few people passed by Mu Yichen, greeting him. He stopped, standing against the wall to continue the call with her.

”I have a meeting! I’ll come to pick you up after work, don’t drive yourself back!”

”Okay! No rush though, I have a few drawings I need to carefully revise.”

Qin Mu initially thought about working overtime but now felt it was fine.

”When will you focus on your husband as much?”

Mu Yichen watched others go inside, and since he couldn’t keep the others waiting too long, he asked her that, then walked in.

”When I’m not drawing, all I think about is you.”

Qin Mu confessed immediately.

”I have to go to a meeting! Later!”

Mu Yichen told her gently as he entered the meeting room.
