His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 2233: Chapter 651: One Year Later (28) Stiff Neck

Thinking to herself, she had rested for a while on the sofa in the bedroom at noon, and now she’s on this one again. If she really cared so much about having a woman in his house, maybe she’s being a bit too undemanding.

In the middle of the night, he lit a cigarette in front of her, enjoying it alone in the dark, able to see her whenever he looked up.

——

The next morning, after Qin Mu got up, she felt a severe pain in her neck. She got up, heard the sound of cutting coming from the kitchen, put on her slippers, shuffled over, touching her own neck.

”Morning!”

She greeted him in a slightly hoarse voice, naturally, her eyes barely open.

”Morning!”

He responded faintly, already sharply dressed, elegantly preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

Qin Mu heard his voice and forced herself to open her eyes a bit more, but her hand still pinched her neck as she walked over to look at the side dishes he was preparing. Suddenly feeling a bit hungry, she picked up a carrot and started eating it.

Mu Yichen frowned slightly and looked up at her again, noticing she kept pinching her neck, he softly asked, ”Did you sleep wrong?”

”Yeah!”

Qin Mu agreed, slightly pressing her neck to the side.

Mu Yichen simply took a tissue to dry his hands, his somewhat cold hand directly touched her warm neck. Qin Mu was almost startled by the cold, but his strength was just right, so she let him massage her neck, her head inclined.

This kind of thing, he used to do it, and she was used to it.

This kind of thing, between the past and now, Qin Mu gradually found it inappropriate, so she said, ”That’s enough! That’s enough!”

Mu Yichen didn’t believe her, but as she slowly moved to evade him, he let her go.

Qin Mu breathed a sigh of relief and then said, ”I’ll go see if the kids are up.”

”Morning, Dad! Morning, Mom!”

”Morning, Dad! Morning, Mom!”

As soon as Qin Mu turned her head, the two little ones had already run over.

Qin Mu noticed that the siblings would often run around like this, energetically, but she also felt they were so proactive, possessing a kind of vitality and positive attitude that she lacked. Qin Mu found it enviable and felt happy watching them.

”Morning!”

Without arranging beforehand, they spoke in unison.

As soon as the two finished saying morning, Huanhuan and Chengcheng laughed again.

”Mom, can you help me do my hair?”

Huanhuan suggested, taking out a comb from her pocket and handing it to Qin Mu.

Qin Mu took the comb, Huanhuan pulled out a chair at the dining table and sat down, while Chengcheng handed Qin Mu clips, waiting for her mother to make a beautiful hairstyle.

Indeed, when Huanhuan had on a very ladylike hairstyle, Qin Mu was surprised to see that she really looked like a quiet little girl.

”It really looks better when Mom does it!”

Even Chengcheng had to admit this point.

Mu Yichen, standing at the kitchen door watching, sadly smiled, thinking, am I really that bad?

”Actually, Daddy’s pretty good too!”

Huanhuan giggled at Mu Yichen, her hand gently touching the little braid her mother helped with.

After breakfast, Mu Yichen had to go to the company, and before leaving, he asked Qin Mu, ”Where are you taking them today?”

”No plans, we’ll see!”

Qin Mu smiled, though Mu Yichen noticed something a bit tense behind her seemingly carefree demeanor.

”Then I’ll go first!”

Mu Yichen nodded, seeing she had her own plans, he didn’t ask further.

”Yeah!”

Qin Mu agreed, following him with her head down. Just as she was about to close the door, her hand on the doorknob, he suddenly turned around: ”There’s a car in the parking lot, you know where the key is!”

It wasn’t a question.

Qin Mu looked at him, her heart pounding inexplicably, nodded: ”Yeah!”

Mu Yichen finally left, and after she closed the door, she exhaled heavily. Every time she accidentally met his gaze, she felt a bit...

Guilty?

Qin Mu couldn’t understand why she felt guilty.

But today, she was going to see Feng Fanghua.

What about these two kids?

For her own sake, Qin Mu decided to take the kids with her, driving towards the old house.

Huanhuan and Chengcheng, listening to their mother’s briefing, couldn’t help but ask Qin Mu, ”Mom, Grandma always wants to find us a stepmother, why are you still going to see Grandma?”

Qin Mu smiled helplessly, ”Because she’s your grandma!”

The road hadn’t changed, Qin Mu walked on the familiar path, yet felt a sense of crisis not knowing what she was going to do.

Luckily, Xiang Hang was always following behind her. Oh, this time Xiang Hang wasn’t alone, Qin Mu guessed it was because they were afraid she’d encounter another fan blocking incident.
